It's A Secret

"Hey Varian, do you want to go out for a picnic today? The weather's really warm, perfect time to go outside."

Your boyfriend's been hunched over his desk for the past few days. Running around in his lab for the past weeks. And hasn't gone outside the castle for a whole month.

Troubled was something that you were feeling a few weeks ago. Now, you were worried. Worried about Varian. Worried about his health. Worried about how he didn't go outside. He's been stuck in the castle, acting like he was a snail to it's shell.

"I'm sorry, love. Can't, I'm busy with this project." Of course, he couldn't. That's what Varian's been saying for the past few weeks. "Maybe, later. I promise."

Pouting you rest your head on his shoulder, looking up at him through your lashes. "Are you sure?"

Varian chuckles, his shoulders moving ever so slightly. "I did promise, didn't I?"

"Yeah, you did." The pout on your face still staining your lips.

He's known you for a long time, enough to tell the sound of your mood change. Putting down the tools he was tinkering with. Varian turns back to look at you, "(Y/N), I promise." He kisses your pout away. "You could always ask Rapunzel, if she wants to hang out. I'm sure, she'll love too. Anyone would be lucky to hang out with you. Even, a princess of Corona."

You let out a laugh, when Varian boops your nose. Saying, "Now, stop pouting. You're too cute to be sad!"

Swatting his hand away with a chuckle, "Alright, I'll ask Rapunzel."

Making your way to the door, hearing Varian's yell of, "I love you!"

"Love you too!"

The sound of his power tools turning back on, were heard as you close the lab door.

The frown returned on your face, when you think about Rapunzel. Just like Varian, you've asked her to hang out, but resulted in the same answer. "Now's not a really good time, (Y/N)."

Sighing, you make your way to her room. You weren't doing this for yourself, you were doing this for Varian. He wanted you to be happy. Thinking that maybe hanging out with Rapunzel would make you happy.

But, not when she was too busy to even hang out.

Taking a breath, you knock on her door. The loud clattering and noises stopped at your knock. A curious, "Yes?"

You cleared your throat, "Rapunzel, it's me, (Y/N). Can I come in?"

There was a heavy pause. What sounded like a panicked scream of Eugene was heard. The clattering soon started up again.

It took a few minutes for the noises to pause. Rapunzel opened the door, her face peeping out. The rest of the room unseen.

"H- hi, (Y/N). What do you need?" Her regular peppy smile, looked strained and anxious.

Shaking the observation off, it was probably nothing, "I was wondering if you wanted to go for a walk around the gardens?"

Rapunzel sucks in a harsh breath, looking back into the room, then to you. "(Y/N)-"

You quickly wave her off, "No, it's fine. You're busy." Sending her a small forced smile.

She looks at you in pity, "Maybe, next time. I'll make it up to you. Okay?"

"Really, Rapunzel, it's fine. You're the princess after all." You turn to leave, down the hall you came.

The princess looks at you, contemplating what to say as she sees you walk farther away. Closing her mouth, she looks back into the room. Shutting the door quietly.
