AN: Hey guys. This chapter was requested by ImABookwormReally. Thank you so much.

You are a personal servant to Princess Natasha.

Warning: This will include a bit of homophobia, so beware. Just so you know, I am not homophobic at all.

You wake up to the sun rising outside your window and sigh before beginning your usual routine. You grope around your room as you try to find your closet door.

You open it up and pull out your necessary servant's uniform before putting it on. You wash your face and comb your hair, making sure that you looked proper before leaving the safety of your room for the rest of the palace.

You walk to the princess's room thinking about what you had to do, when you hear two voices coming from a closed door.

When you go closer to the door, you hear a frightening conversation.

"I heard that a woman was caught with another woman. They were both taken away to the hospital. Hopefully, they get cured. It scares me that more and more people are catching this disease. I better not get it.".

You gasp softly as the other person replies.

"Exactly. I can't deal with so many people turning to the devil on their shoulder and deciding to sin. They need God's teachings.".

At this, you turn from the door and continue walking to the princess's room. You always knew that your country wasn't the most progressive, but you had hoped that it wouldn't be this bad. After all, you were hiding the fact that you loved girls much more than society thought you should.

You fight back tears as you open the door, hoping that the princess didn't hear you. You go in and jump back in shock when you find her staring directly at you.

"I am so sorry princess. I just need to set out your dress for today.", you say worriedly, hoping that she does not complain to her father.

She just shakes her head before saying,"You don't need to do that. Just come sit on the bed with me.".

You try to cover up your shock, but the princess must have seen it because she started to laugh and say,"I'm serious. Just sit up here.".

You, even though it was unprofessional, climb up onto the bed and sit next to the princess.

She sees at you before asking," You heard the conversation outside didn't you?.

When you nod, she continued, "Yeah, I hate how my father treats them.".

This time, you were unable to hold back your shock as you whispered," Princess, are you sure you want others to hear that?".

She laughs again before saying,"For one, call me Natasha. And also, others won't be able to hear. It's not like I screamed it from the rooftops.".

She grins when you laugh a little. After a few minutes, you go back into your duties and say,"Princess Natasha, I do have to get your dress for today.", as you get off the bed.

She pouts and nods before joining you at her closet. You start pulling out a few dresses feeling Natasha's eyes on you, which cause you to blush.

After pulling out various dresses and having your face turn redder than a tomato, you finally bring out a dark blue dress that she likes.

After cleaning up, you thank Princess Natasha for making you laugh and you walk back outside to get her food.

She just laughs again before saying,"Can you please come back soon.".

You had never been asked anything politely, especially from her parents. So, you just nod and leave the room.

As you walk down to the kitchens, you replay what just happened in your head.

"Does she know that I like girls?", You think to yourself as you pick up the plates with ease.

This causes you to go into a state of panic, almost dropping the plates, hoping that she did not.

You steady yourself before exhaling and walking back up to her room, telling yourself that you should never even do anything that would make people think that you were attracted to girls. And that you should never, ever, ever fall in love with anybody in the palace. Ever.

When you get to her door, you knock softly and walk in when the door opens. You smile when you see her and place the plate down on the table.

You are about to walk out when you hear Princess Natasha ask,"Can you please stay?".

You nod as you walk closer to her. She looks up at you and smiles. You smile back at her, which quickly turns into a frown once you see her tear stained face.

"What's wrong Princess?", you ask as you hand her a napkin.

She gratefully takes it before showing you a letter. You take the letter and read after she nods.

Dear Natasha,

The guards have found out. I don't know how, but they did. They are coming for me. I have run away, and am safe for now. Don't tell anyone else in the family where I have gone.

Your loving cousin,

Clint

You gasp again as you look at Natasha. She wipes her eyes before saying,"I just got this today. The thing is.... He was gay, and my own parents wrote the laws that sent people after him.".

You hug her without thinking feeling her stiffen up before she smiles and hugs you back.

You smile again before saying, "He will be fine. You do not need to worry.".

She nods before taking the food, which was bound to be cold and starting to eat. She handed some to you, not listening when you told her no. You hesitantly take a small piece of fruit and bite into it.

After that, you say goodbye to the Princess, and leave the room, cleaning up the plates.

Over the next few days, you continue to talk to Princess Natasha and a friendship develops between the two of you.

But, you realize that all good things must come to an end when you wake up in the middle of the night and say softly, " Shit, I broke my own oath, I actually fell in love with the one person I wasn't supposed to. I actually fucking fell in love with Princess Natasha.".

AN: Hope you enjoyed it! This is officially the most I have ever written for a story. I had so much fun writing this. So, I actually am planning to split this AU into multiple chapters. I can continue this one if you guys want, so just tell me if you want a part 2.
