The Prince's Nuisance

Chapter 18

I can't love you too deep but don't let go...meet me somewhere in between...

How do I love you without getting too close...

Win was bewildered how one moment he was walking down the street and now he was sitting inside a car staring at the Prince who has the darkest face that can scare all the wandering spirit around.

"Aha, Your Highness... Long time no see." Win greeted him with a smile so wide and so fake that Bright wanted to squeeze his cheeks until they hurt but instead he squinted his eyes and looked away without saying anything.

"Um, where are we going?" Win asked. He can see how the Prince is not in the talking mood but Win is shocked to see him after almost a month. Win is getting better, he is starting to go back to his normal routine. He is starting to think less of the Prince but now Bright has to do this stunt like to slapped his face with his presence to remind him of his existence. That's not fair.

He is okay without him in his life. Win is moving on thinking that they will never cross paths again. But why?

The Prince has to admit it to himself. He is losing control.
He never thought a day would come where he will have to hold into his own sanity and self-control over something that he deemed as trivial and bizarre. But he is on the verge of doing something foolish and he still can't find the will to stop.

He doesn't want to... He is not intending to...

What trigger this brazen action of his?

Ahh, the sudden emptiness that he never felt before. Because he let himself fallen deep into a pit where there is no way out but to dig deeper.

He can't sleep.
It's hard to eat.
He is losing interest in things he usually does.
And his temper is going haywire.

He wanted to see Win.
He wanted to hear his endless complain and ramblings.
He wanted to hear his laughter.
He wanted to see his smile.
He wanted to keep him by his side.

Because missing him was never been on his agenda. It was not planned. It just happened and that is making him crazy.

And the Prince finds himself sneaking like a stalker, watching Win get off from work and the building of jealousy is becoming unbearable as he saw him jesting with that guy that always with him every single day.

Win looks fine.
He looked happy.
He is okay without him in his life and the Prince is desperate. He wanted Win to be affected like him.
Why it's just him losing it?
Why it's just him feeling the sadness that keeps on eating him?

As a Prince who always in control of his emotion, he is slowly losing grasp of it. That is how he comes into this impulsive action.

His plan was to just see him before he goes to his next schedule then he will be fine. But he finds himself asking his security to seize Win instead like a common kidnapper. He actually dropped low to that level.

The two of them was both found themselves speechless and unable to conjure up words to clarify what is going on. Win is simply stupefied by the turn of events while the Prince is ashamed of what he did but will never admit it. In fact, he is happy that he did it.

Just for this day, maybe they can be together and spent it without thinking of anything else.

"Just be with me today... Please." Win heard the Prince said. He thought he heard the yearning on his voice but maybe he was wrong.

"Do I have a choice, Your Highness? It's not like I can just jump out the car.' Win sighed in defeat.

Maybe, silently he wants it too... He wanted to see him. Why not forget the world for just a day and goes with the flow... Maybe after that, they can go on with their own lives.
