Amanene One Shots

Three; royal au

Hello! My name is Yashiro Nene and I'm the princess of Kamome kingdom! However, I don't like being a princess. It's boring. I have so much work to do and I just can't really be bothered, if you get where I'm coming from.
You do, right?

Good, because that's why I want to sneak out and pretend to be from the village. I'll only be gone for like, an hour or so. Not too long. After all, they don't check my room much when I'm in there.

And so, I put on a cape and started my escape plan. I had a rope in my room from when I was teaching myself to tie a knot. I put the rope down out of my window and tried to slide down it. I didn't have a clue how I'd get back up, but oh well. I left my room and ran to the nearby village.

And as soon as I left the castle, I regretted my decision. I suddenly realised that I'd probably be recognised. I have these stupid fat ankles after all. And so I tried to walk through the crowds, without walking into people or accidentally scraping past them. But of course that didn't work and I ended up crashing into a relatively small boy.

"Oh my lord I am extremely sorry!" I suddenly shouted as I got up and helped the boy onto his feet. He looked slightly annoyed but then he chuckled.
"It's no problem," a smile grew on his face. I smiled back.
"Hey, you speak very posh. Could you be from the castle?" He asked me. I have a feeling that I instantly turned bright red due to not having an answer prepared.
"No, I uh.. I'm uh... my uhhhh.... my mother taught me to speak like this," I stuttered. He stared at me blankly before laughing a lot, which only caused me to become even more red.
"Excuse me, why would you laugh at me?" I angrily said as I poked his face. This only caused him to laugh even more. And I just kept getting redder and redder as he laughed.
"You're the princess aren't you?"
I looked at him in shock while I pulled my cape over my face to avoid him seeing how extremely embarrassed and shocked I was.
"I guess that proves it," I couldn't see what his face was doing but he suddenly pulled my cape off of my face. I looked around, trying to avoid eye contact but he just grabbed my head and moved it so that we were facing each other.

"You know that your parents will find out, right?" He asked me as his facial expression suddenly dropped. He looked slightly more... sad now.
"Yes but I just wanted to see the village. I am never allowed out of the castle," I mumbled as i put my hair behind my ear and sighed. "This was a bad idea though,"
He laughed, "you could've done with a better disguise. After all, everyone knows that the princess is some beautiful girl who is hidden in the castle and never allowed to go out. There aren't many pictures of you on the internet, but the ones that are on there are insanely good pictures. Y' know, you're pretty cute,"
I blushed heavily again and hid in my cape.
"Nobody has ever told me that I'm cute," I mumbled, "It has always been things like 'she is the princess so she should be prettier' or 'her ankles are too big, she needs to sort them out' and they always just point out all my flaws as if I am something to insult and poke at," I hadn't realised it but tears were flowing down my red face.

"Well they're wrong, princess," I could tell that he was kinda said from the tone of his voice. "Anyway, your name is Yashiro, yes?" He asked me.
I took my cape off of my face and nodded. "And you are?" I asked him in reply.
"Oh right, my name's Amane, we should start finding how to get you back home," I nodded as we both ran in the direction of the castle. Amane had seemed to take a liking to calling me princess. Whilst yes, I was the princess of the kingdom it was also just kinda weird.

I'm just gonna publish this because it was in the drafts
