Following Yoongi and Jin to the dining hall, I noticed the boys were right behind me. Thought I was eating alone since Hobi went to his room to rest. But, being alone with them won't be that bad— I guess. When I sat down, Jinyoung and Namjoon sat at the other end. "Do I smell or something? Why are you so far away, my lords?" I asked them.

They both looked at each other than sat closer by me. Fixing themselves, Namjoon scooted more towards me "So my lady, is there any reason why are here in Jungkook's humble abode?" He said.

"Something happened at the central market. Due to that event, Hoseok and I will be here until that person is captured. Hope that's okay with you?"

He explained that this is not his house, so he didn't care if I was here or not. Namjoon turned to Jinyoung to ask the same question. The answer was simple and straight to the point. "I was helping Mia with something and stayed with her for comfort"

Namjoon gave him the 'right' stare. The servants sat the plates down in front of us, that's when Joon asked if he was going home soon. With a simple yes, his expression became brighter. I didn't care what they do, I was hungry. The food was gone unless then four minutes... I may be a princess but I can still eat like it's nothing.

The boys and I chatted before it was time for Jinyoung to head back home. "Goodbye princess, I will see you tomorrow. Make sure you watch out for him... he probably does something" Jinyoung stated, he bowed then walked away.

Namjoon did a 'haha' as he stretches in the chair. "Mia, will you be spending the night here" out of nowhere, I put my hand over his mouth to shut him. I explained that he needs to careful when saying my name like that. It is rude and disrespectful when servants around, especially guards.

Moving his head up and down, he slowly takes my hand away from his mouth. Licking his lips, he said it taste like the strawberries I ate. "That is so strange to say, my lord, besides that was disgusting as well. Don't lick my hand"

"You put it there when I was talking, so excuse me for tasting it. Plus, I love strawberries" he gave his dimple smile. Laughing at the statement, Yoongi walked up to me saying it was time to head to bed. I apologize to Joon as we had to cut the conversation short, he pouted like a puppy.

Sometimes, I feel bad about leaving every time we talk. He is not getting that time he needs in order to get to know me more. Waving goodbye, Yoongi leads me out of the room. As we were walking about the hallway, Yoongi turned to me "What's wrong my lady?" he asked.

"Nothing Yoongs"

"I know when something is wrong. If you don't tell me then I will find out" he puts his hands behind his back and walked faster. I fastened my pace to keep his.

"Just thinking about Namjoon okay. There happy"

His face was smiling from ear to ear, he knew that already. Then he explained, if I want more time with him like Jinyoung— then I have to make time. "Jinyoung comes out of nowhere, stealing you away. With Namjoon, you only be with him at night. Which is unsuitable in my opinion. Now, you do what Jinyoung do to you"

That wasn't a bad idea, if I pop out of nowhere then I could get that time with Namjoon. Hugging Yoongi, we went passed Hoseok's room. The door was slightly open and you could hear talking from it. Pausing my movements, Yoongi asked me what was I doing.

Waving him to be quiet, I leaned closer to the door. "Hoseok, you know the consequences but yet disregard them... why?" Jimin said.

"You say that like you don't know them as well my dear Jiminie. I disregard them because I care about you. I told you this before, why can't you accept it" he was sitting on the edge of his bed. His bare chest shown and wearing only boxers. Jimin was putting on his clothes.

"Because I still can't believe it, my lord. For someone who could have everything... be with or love someone who waits on people for orders. The high cost of loving a servant could cause chaos in the kingdom. Royalty must marry nobles, you know that" Jimin explained.

"That's what wrong with this fucking kingdom, these stupid laws we force on people. Our citizens really think we don't suffer from these laws too. My sister got to marry a total stranger, even though she knows one from childhood but barely knew after he moved. Like I said before, a total stranger. We suffer as much as them... I don't care about the consequences. I will step down as king if I can't be by your side"

Jimin rushed in to hug him, knocking him to the bed. I wiped my eyes as tears began to fall. That was something to remember, I made an impact on Hoseok as to believe in your beliefs. Always stick to what's best for you and no one can change that. That's something I should be doing but I don't have the strength.

Yoongi taps me on my shoulder to move me along. When we arrived at the room, Jin was fixing it for my comfort. I did my nightly routine, washing my hair, brushing my teeth, take a bath, puts a face mask on, and etc.

After that, I was tuck in like a burrito. "Goodnight your majesty" they said in unison as they left the room. Laying in darkness, the moon shined the window. Giving the room a good atmosphere of lighting. The stars shined bright as well, giving the sky an extra sparkle to it.

As I stared out the window, a shadow appeared in front of it. Sacring me half to death, then it waved and pointed to the window. When I got up, I could see that it was Namjoon. I was on the first floor this time, so he didn't have to throw rocks anymore. Opening the window he climbs in "What are you doing here Namjoon?"

"I wanted to come and see you. Just like Romeo, I came through the window"

"You will die like Romeo as well if they hear you" I said.

He closed the window behind him, then sat at the seating area by it. Then he said as long as he got to die in my arms, he will proudly do so. Chuckling at his words, I joined him "What are actually doing here?" I asked again.

"I really did want to see you, plus I need some advice"

Out of interest, I gave him my full attention. His whole expression was making me worry like something bad happened. "I'm asking for a friend, he is in deep shit... as he owes a lot of money to someone. He caused trouble around the town for years and got caught up with some bad guys. Now those same guys won't stop searching until he is found. My friend thinks stealing something valuable will solve everything or do something.  The person he was going to steal from... is someone he growing attract too"

As he said that his eyes wander everywhere, he never once made eye contact with me. I kind of like when someone stares at me when talking, so I cupped his face to have him to stay focus. The red appeared on his cheeks as his ears were turning red as well. I released my hands away from his face, the panic set in.

"No worries Mia, I like to make eye contact too when talking. Anyways, my friend finds it hard to do what's right... it's either steals from the person he likes or gets killed. On top of that, he pressured by someone. What to do?"

"Your friend is really in deep shit... but I will ask for help. Not from the authorities, more like a trusted friend. Even from the girl or guy he likes, if they really cared then it won't be a problem. But this is my advice for him— he has to follow his heart. If he does that he will know what to do"

Namjoon blankly stared at me then gave his smile. Up close, his dimples were much cuter in person. His arms began to wrap around me, he pulled me in for a warm hug. His chest was like a rock but with a cloud covered it. The way he was hugging me made me feel safe... safer than I ever was.

A sudden rush of hottest came through me as his words spilled out. "You are a really kind-hearted person, you know Mia. You really care about people even though you don't know them personally. That's something I admire about you and like... you will make a great queen"

A smile came on my face, it was different as I felt something lifted from my body. As the night still covered the sky, we continue to talk.
