Y/n POV:
I sat remembering all the other times here in this little courtyard so many things where different back then... I remember the first time my mother and father brought me in business mostly it was just because they were bringing my sisters and they didn't want me alone at home when we left the little stuffy carriage we were greeted by many of the staff and people from the house we would to stay in wait for our meeting with the king, my mother and father went off to talk with the heads of the home and my sisters off with servants and handmaidens of there own, I tried my best to follow my mother and father curious as I always was, but when the heads of house noticed I was following them they all turned and stopped looking at me "Little Princess how about you go and spend some time with my assistant? he's about your age" This man suggested and I look to my parents a little confused and they nodded so I nodded too "Good, RAFE!" He yelled across to a door
"Yes sir," a boy said scarpering out of a little room standing properly he didn't look too much older than me about a year maybe but quite a lot taller than me his mop of blond hair attempted to be controlled but failed
"Look after the Princess a while," he told him
"yes, sir" He nodded to the man and my parents wondered off down the hall "So, the gardens?" He suggests to me and I nod...
I remember a year or so later we returned to that house and rafe was stood to wait for me this time even if it was freezing outside snow just floating through the air we had arrived so much later than other times so we all went straight up to bed once I got to my room I took off my flowing dress and remained in simply my underdress and corset and I sat on the edge of the window looking at the falling snow till I heard a little knock at my door
"Come in" I reply to the door and it slowly pushed open it was rafe stood smiling at me "Hello" I smile
"Hello" he blushed
"whats the matter?" I ask him
"Ohh, Nothing, Its just very cold, I wanted to give you another couple of blankets that's all," He told me putting a little pile of folded blankets on the end of the bed
"Thank you," I tell him
"your welcome" He blushed "Did you want me to get you some more logs for your fire?" he asks
"Its alright rafe, Come here, I haven't seen you in ages" I laugh holding out my hand and he blushed more coming over taking my hand and giving it a light kiss making me giggle as he sat across from me looking out the window too
"it has been a while, a lot's changed since I saw you last" he laughs
"Like what?" I ask him
"Well... I can fully read and write now" he told me
"that's impressive, I still struggle and I'm royalty" I laugh
"I know, I can ride a horse now too, I hoped I might take you for a ride but the snow seems to have other ideas" He explains
"That's alright, you'll just have to give me a ride next time I'm here" I smirk
"so? what has the little princess been up to?" He asked me
"Not much, working in the garden, dance class, sewing, the little things, its been strange at home lately since Father has been getting older" I explain
"Likely your sisters fighting over the crown," He told me
"True, I'm not worried, its a duty that comes from being a little princess knowone really cares what you do, being last in a line of five sisters makes your rather unimportant in the grand scheme of things" I explain
"You're Important to me," He told me
"Thank you, Rafe" I blush "You're important to me," I tell him holding his hand
"I really mean that Y/n, I live for the days a year I get to spend with you," he told me tightening his grip on my hand
"as do I" I giggle a moment trying to hide my blush but my shoulders shivered so I got up moving across to the side of the window where he sat sitting just in front of him and leaning my back against him resting my head on his shoulder I could see him smiling at me as he wrapped an arm around me resting it on my waist as we sat cuddled together watching the snowfall...This year was Different This year the king and his main staff were visiting our castle I was a little worried and a bit disappointed what if Rafe doesn't count among the staff to accompany the party to our home I stood out with my family and the staff as carriages arrived on our grounds, the king and his wife as well as the children, I tried not to look eager looking around at the staff and people arriving and I saw a familiar sight, Cromwell, a sight was often seen about the king when we visited and I was shocked, frozen when I saw him, Rafe, he looked so different I felt something strange almost like a new feeling as I saw him he was all grown up they came to us to greet us as everyone else had
"Well, Hello Little Princess" He laughed as he saw me
"Hello" I blush
"Something the matter?" He asked me taking my hand and giving it a little kiss
"No nothing the matter" I smile a little breathless
"You're sure?" he asks and I nod "Well alright" he smiles fixing a bit of my hair behind my ear "we'll talk about it later" He whispers to me before winking at me and going off with the others, Later that day when my family was dealing with the visiting royals I went down to my little music room I didn't ask for much in this huge castle not compared to my sisters just one little room, One section of the garden and my little music room once I was inside I lit the fire and began sitting with my harp singing little songs and playing little tunes "Aww are you going to play me a little song Y/n?" I heard behind me so I glanced at the door and saw rafe leaning on the inside closed door I hadn't even noticed him coming in
"No, Just passing the time," I tell him
"Why are you not at the party with everyone else?" he asks me
"not to sure I would much be wanted, Or much enjoy it," I tell him turning the page in my music sheets
"I would want you there," He told me
"I would rather us just stay up here," I tell him
"Well alright" He laughs coming to me and sitting on the little sofa by the window "so? whats new with the little Princess?" he asks
"Not much" I shrug "What about you? someone got a promotion I notice" I laugh
"I did, just in time too else I wouldn't have been able to come to see you" He explained
"Lucky then" I laugh
"very lucky, so I could see my little princess, without her four sisters butting in" He smirks
"Three now,"I inform him fiddling with my harp "I try not to think about it," I tell him
"Ohh I'm sorry y/n," he told me
"Its alright" I grin
"Come here," he told me holding out his hand so I blushed getting out my chair and holding his hand sitting beside him on the couch
"I've missed you," I tell him
"I've missed you too" he smiles kissing my hand "You're blooming into a very elegant woman Y/n," He told me
"Thank you Rafe" I smile "You've already started to become a very handsome Youthful man," I Inform him
"Thank you, Princess, I forget sometimes you're a year behind me" he laughed "I can't wait to see what happens to you," he told me
"Maybe I will surprise you" I smirk
"Perhaps you will" he smirks his eyes darting to my lips a second before reverting his gaze to my eyes I did likewise to him and he licked his lips while studying mine
"What is it?" I ask him
"Forgive me, princess," he told me
"For what?" I began but his soft hands grasped my bodice softly his lips colliding with mine, I froze in my place as he kissed me, his hands caressed me gently, I kissed him back softly and tentatively a little afraid that his lips where so delicate and angelic I melted into his kiss he took that as an opportunity to glide his tongue across my lip I was hesitant, unsure what he desired but I opened my mouth a little allowing his tongue to move inside my mouth I didn't resist him Working with his tongue as our kiss intensified till I lightly forced him away sufficiently, so our kiss must finish as we separated but his grip on my waist didn't have to stop
"What is it Princess?" he asks me
"nothing" I smile getting up allowing our hands to be dragged apart as I went to the door securing it making him grin at me a little shocked at me before I returned to his grasp
"You're not angry at me?" he asks delicately
"not at all Rafe", I tell him forcing him back so he was laid on my couch his head against the pillow I moved to be laid on top of him with my hands on his shoulders I gave his lips a small peck of a kiss with a light smile obtaining his intense blush hard kissing me back...
