The Prince and The Parvenu (Completed)

chapter 7

"He's so cute"

I whispered while focusing the camera on the sleeping Prince. We only have an hour left before we land and I feel so alive. With the second Prince sleeping peacefully beside me,everything feels perfect. He looks perfect. Thick brows, long eyelashes, perfect nose and lips, and his sun kissed skin. I took a photo of him for the last time and switched the camera into selfie mode. I created various poses with him and on the last photo, I acted like I'm kissing his cheeks making my entire face flush. What the hell Hermanie! You're crazy! I scolded myself when I saw him slowly opening his eyes.

"What are you doing?" I held my breath when he talked. His voice sounded so sexy! Dahil ba kakagising niya lang?! Agad kong itinago ang phone ko at ngumiti sa kanya.

"Nothing. I just woke up" I lied and glanced at the window, mga ulap parin ang nakikita ko.

Since he was already awake, we just talked about random things, getting to know each other more. I learned that he likes taking random walks around the Palace, training by himself, and reading. I'm even surprised that he has a favourite flower, and it's the lotus flower, the symbol of their family. I also found out that when his father was still alive, the late King would always arrange a duel between him and his brothers, giving them precious prises if they won.

"May instances ba na you guys would take the duel too seriously dahil gustong gusto niyo na makuha yung prise?" I asked looking at him now. He glanced at me, his eyes suddenly serious now.

"There was one time I had a huge fight with Aiken. I didn't really know what the prise was and he did, he told me to let him win dahil gustong gusto niya ang premyo. I won and he didn't talk to me for the whole year. I'm glad I won that fight though" I was about to ask him what the prise was when the intercom blared through the speakers.

The pilot saying that we are approaching NAIA. The second Prince suddenly looked nervous as our plane descended. He gripped on the armrest tightly and closed his eyes. I smiled at what I just witnessed and placed my left hand above his, making him look at me. I gave him a sweet smile and squeezed his hand, our eyes locked at each other.

"Bienvenido , we have safely landed in Manila, Philippines. You may take off your seatbelts and enjoy the warm afternoon breeze in the country" The second Prince looked relieved at what he heard, I laughed at him and stood up.

"Let's go?" He simply nodded, out of words and stood up. The stewardess greeted us on our way out and I gave her a smile while the second Prince just walked pass her as if she wasn't there. Number one gago. I'm just lucky that he doesn't act that way with me. At least, not anymore.

A black heavily tinted SUV was waiting on the bottom of the plane. A dozen guards waiting for our arrival, one guard had my duffel bag on his shoulder, all of them looking grim. The second Prince held my hand and guided me all throughout the way while I turned on the cellular data of my phone and posted on my IG story the picture I took with the second Prince kanina. It wasn't long until my phone got bombed with messages from my friends and notifications from my social media accounts.

The second Prince opened the door for me after talking to the guard and let me in first. I stepped in, eyes still fixed on my phone. After I settled myself, my phone rang, Rav's name on the screen. I answered it and watched as the second Prince talked with a few guards outside.

(You're in the Philippines?) I raised my brow at what he said.

"What a nice greeting. Hindi ba pwedeng 'you're back! Kita tayo!' o kaya naman ay 'I miss you! Kita tayo!' ?" I laughed at my statement. The second Prince glanced at me and quickly dismissed the guards and went inside. He raised his brows at what I'm doing and I raised my index finger in front of my mouth.
