Nikki's P.O.V:

That was the first time I had ever even gotten so remotely close to a man since a few years ago. So.. Intimately close, rather. His eyes were so intoxicating and it was impossible to climb out of those golden pools of sincerity. I watched the sun rise, and the last tail of his cloud disappear into the sky.

Another sleepless night spent. Suki quietly came into my room.

"Miss, did you sleep at all..? "

I wasn't listening to her, still staring up into the sky, my heart feeling like it was beating for the first time.

"Miss? "

I jumped, turning to see the girl with her brown hair tightly done up.

"Are you alright? "

"Y-yes, um.. I'm fine. "I snapped out of my dreams and stood up, dusting my clothing.

"Did you sleep? "

"I-I didn't.. "

I answered truthfully. Suki, knowing me, just sighs. With each day, he invaded my thoughts, invaded my life- but it was all the more confusing to myself how I didn't mind it. How I looked forward to seeing him every night. Suki watched me in silence, but even she knew something was off.

"Is something going on that I don't know about, Miss? You've never been the type to space out so often. "

I had to bring myself back to reality, back to.. Whatever this world is.

"Of course not, Suki. Is breakfast ready? "

I asked.

"In a few minutes, Miss. The emperor mailed a letter again. "

She handed me a letter, and I opened it up.

'Dear Miss Holloway,

I was simply wondering if you have anything this afternoon. If you don't, then I would like to invite you to come over to the palace at 2 for lunch, if you're interested. I would like to get to know you better, perhaps devise a plan?

I'll look forward to your reply.

With all due respect,

Haki Chikyu'

I handed the letter back to Suki.

"I'll write him a letter before breakfast, have someone bring it to him. "

Suki nodded, and quietly left my room. I stared up into the sky again, wishing he was here with me, here to give me his hand for me to take before I fall(That was a sad BTS reference I'm sorry). My nightmares were worsening by the day and talking about him wouldn't make me any better. He was coming at such a crucial time, a time where I need someone reliable to depend on.

I changed my clothes, into a light blue floral kimono and a sakura hair accessory to hopefully help make my unnaturally coloured hair look at least a bit more acceptable. I sat at my desk to compose a letter to send to the emperor.

Soon after about 8, I was done. I hoped it didn't seem like I was overstepping my boundaries. I neatly folded it up and tied it up, leaving it on the desk for Suki to take to the emperor.

Soon thereafter, his golden eyes swam in front of me daringly once more. He did look beautiful, indeed, and his beautiful face wouldn't leave my head. I was looking forward to lunch.

Honest opinion, he was probably much more beautiful than me.

I ate breakfast and read until it was near the time of lunch with the emperor.
