The King wrapped with large gloved hand around you waist and smiled softly. "You look very, very tired Dear, yesterday was very...hectic overall, why don't you go get some rest?" The King said, a bit of concern was noticed in his voice. You scrunched your eye brows for a moment and looked up at him. "I literally just woke up though." You said, ignoring the fact that you are completely drained of energy. The King chuckled at you and cupped your chin, placing his thumb across your jawline softly. "Y/N Dearest, you have bags underneath your eyes, and yesterday you gave birth, you need some rest whether you like it or not." He remarked, making sure you got the point that you needed sleep. You sighed softly and nodded, you began to walk to your room when you noticed he was walking besides you. "Spades? Why are you tagging along?" You asked as you walked. "To tuck you in." He stated. You chuckled for a moment as a bright blush shaded your cheeks. "I'm not three you know." You giggled softly.

You opened the door to your room as the King followed behind you. "SMACK!" Suddenly you felt something smack you butt roughly, your face turned fifty shades of red. "HEY!" You yelped loudly, turning around with red cheeks and crossing your arms embarrassedly. "What the hell was that for? That hurt..." You mumbled, rubbing the side of your forehead. The King chuckled at this and scooped you up bridal style. "Just couldn't help it." He teased. You huffed loudly and rolled your eyes, your cheeks still a bright pink. "That's irrelevant." You pouted quietly. The King chuckled and set you down on the bed. "Changed my mind, you are a three year old." He giggled. You rolled your eyes and hid yourself under the covers. You felt the covers pull up so that he could see your face, he planted a kiss on your forehead and walked away. "I love you." You told him before he shut the door. "Love you twice as much."

You fell asleep for a good two hours, you needed it. Although you went to sleep happily, you don't feel it. You told Spades that he made you feel better, but it faded. You hated it. You hated being in your body, your body covered in stretch marks was no longer everlastingly beautiful in your eyes, although you where the fairest and most beautiful in the whole Darkener realm, you couldn't see it. You hated it. The King hated seeing you like this, this sadness, anxiety, fear, he hated it.

You opened your eyes, a wave of sadness hit you. You sighed and rolled out of bed. You looked down at your body, glaring at your stomach, hating every little change. You rolled your eyes annoyedly. You where still in sweats and a baggy T so you decided to wear something a bit more formal, but it  h a d  to be loose.

You decided just to wear a simple T shirt dress, your f/c of course. You slipped on some short heels just to make yourself look presentable, you are the queen after all. You knew you looked nice, but you didn't feel it. You smiled crookidly in the mirror, almost trying to put the pieces together but they just didn't fit in your mind. You shook the feelings off your shoulders and walked out of the room.

You shoes made a "Click Clack" sound down the halls, reminding you of your old job as a counceler. It reminded you of how you used to walk down the halls with a smile on your face, how you had a glow abput you. The way you hummed that sweet song, the way you happily did anything to help anyone, Man, that was the only thing you missed, helping others.

You found yourself in the throne room, once again. The King wasn't there, you sighed softly and continued walking.

He wasn't in the kitchen either.

Then you noticed it, your old room door was cracked open. You peered inside the room to see it painted a baby blue with turquoise stripes. There stood the King in front of a lovely cradle. You entered the room quietly, but the King already knew your presence was in the room, you felt him hold your hand as you looked into the cradle. There laid a little Ace sleeping soundly, a smile curled onto your lips, oh how you loved your son dearly. You sighed softly and squeezed Spades hand before planting a kiss on Ace's forehead. 

The King looked at you with a soft smile and signaled you to exit the room with him.

You left the room with Spades. his fingers intertwined with yours. The two of you walked down a familiar hallway that let you to a room you had once been before. The secret Garden. "Why are we going in here?" You asked. "Mm, haven't visited it in awhile." The King replied in a soft tone of voice. You shrugged your shoulders and pushed the door open.

You sat in a patch of flowers that glowed a dim gold hue, they sparkled and glimmered although no light was shining through the room. You intertwined your fingers in the flowers, memorized by the beauty that was held within them. You plucked a few flowers and twisted them into a flower crown, you placed the crown a top your head and giggled. "Suits you, my dear." The King said, sitting next to you. You smiled softly as you felt his hand brush a piece of hair out of your hair, tucking it behind your ear. But you flinched when you felt his hand brush your waist. "You still don't like your body do you?" He asked. You looked to the floor of the garden ashamed. You felt him place his hand on top of yours, your cheeks heated up and you looked over at him. "I know you can't see what I see, you don't think like I think but, my queen, my darling, my lightener, my everything, you are beautiful, your stretch marks are far from ugly, they are a badge that proves you brought life into this world, that you made it through every morning sickness, backache, and labor. Your extra weight doesn't mean a thing my dear, there's just more to love, you are still miles more beautiful than any goddess could ever dream of being, you are you no matter what shape or size you are, and I love you." His words made you absolutely melt, you felt a few tears glaze over your eyes for a moment before you leaned your head on his shoulder and held onto him tightly. His hand comfortingly wrapped around your waist as he planted a kiss on your forehead.

"You are you no matter what shape or size you are, and I love you" Remember that okay?
