When I Met You ( Laceless x Prince )

Time Of Our Lives

"Alright so you guys got them suggested foods in you yeah? So it's time for dessert!!"  Chili beams bright and leads the two sun yellow inklings toward a booth where they serve chocolate popcorn. "Mm~ Laceless that smells delicious! What is it!?" Prince spoke with his mouth watering from the delicious scent.

"It's chocolate covered in popcorn" Laceless nonchalantly spoke with a smile. Chili comes around and brings the two boys their own bowl of it. "Alright! Here you go you two...mates!" Laceless sighs in defeat but eats his serving.

Prince pops a small one in and eats it for the first time. The young King gasp with phenomenal and looks toward Laceless. "It's Good!" He said loud and eats more. Both Laceless and Chili laugh but Laceless continues to stare at Prince, loving how he's so happy in his moment.

The trio move ahead and settle at a table full from their meal and late snack. "Aaah! Never fails to make me feel extraordinary! How did you like it Prince" Chili asked the king who sits beside Laceless. "It was honestly the best thing I have ever had!"

"There are more treats here that will make you have an extreme sweet tooth." Laceless was about to speak up but then a girls voice came in. "Chili!"
The boys groans annoyed already knowing who that voice belongs too. "Ah Shit! What Do You Want!"

The girl walks over and smacks Chili on the head as harsh as she could. Prince shocked from this, straightens his posture and leans against Laceless but the smaller inkling wasn't fazed what so ever.

"You Weren't Supposed To Leave Me! Mom Said I Had To Watch You! DumbAss!!" She smacks her brother once more on the head. "Chiiillll! I was with Laceless and his friend!" The girl stops glaring toward her brother and faces Laceless who has a shy smile.

"Laceless!!!" She screams and goes over to hug him tightly. "It's nice to see you're keeping Chili in check Toni.." she backs away and cleans her act up standing with a soft girly smile.

"I am, but he left so it was difficult to find his location!" She growls gripping his cheek. Prince watches them scream toward one another thinking how his relationship with his brother was completely different from theirs.

"They can be a little rowdy.." Laceless leans over and whispers into Princes ear. "It's alright. It's quite entertaining" both looks at each other then laugh knowing it's the truth. Once they did the two siblings stop their rough housing at look at the two sun yellow inklings.

"Moving forward. Laceless it's nice to see you again. We we're about to head up to the old barn house if you wish to join, along with you friend of course"
Laceless stands for his feet with his eyes sparkling bright. "Yeah! I haven't been their for a long time"

"You'll love this Prince!" Laceless grips his hand and drags him off with Chili and Toni following with positive attitudes. As they move through the night Toni and Prince are further up ahead talking while Chili and Laceless are more further away toward the back.

"So, what exactly is happening with you and Prince. And please don't bullshit me. I see how you stare at him." Laceless blushes deeply and thinks intensely at what his friend spoke. "..I stare at him yes but not in any way you may think.. him and I are just friends"

"It's okay if you like him...just don't lie to me." Chili said and walked ahead, standing beside his sister. Laceless hung back and thought it over.

{ I'm just a gardener..their is no possibility that Prince will like me back }

"Hey" a kind voice broke through his thought as he opens his eyes and sees clearly, to only see Prince himself looking concerned at Laceless. "Are you alright?" Princes eyes scan over Laceless face studying his expression.

"I'm fine." Laceless smiles and looks back into Princes eyes longing for each other's company. Just about when Prince was about to speak something it was cut short since they arrived at their destination.

"Here We Are! You City Folks!" Chili shouts out and walks into the barn. Both take a glimpse toward one another and walk in. "It's beautiful here!" Prince awed the place with hearts and desire.

"It's about to get more beautiful~" Chili spoke and light the lanterns that are set all around. Toni gets her phone out and hooks it up to the speakers that are placed around as well.

"Settle" Laceless beams toward his friends. "Better be! Now let's have some fun!" Chili joins the two and all three dance while Toni plays with the music and walks around lighting up more lanterns. This goes on with laughs and dancing.

Through this time an hour passes and all end up singing along to the song that plays in the barn.

"Life will, life will always go ooon!! I guess I'll burn In flames!!"

Time has past since they've been there and now all are settled down at a table outside and drink their nonalcoholic beverages. Chili is the one who is speaking and reminiscing about the past that he and Laceless had together with Toni and Prince listening closely.

"So, my dumbass got in trouble once more but this guy right here, came to my rescue when I needed it. He was the one guy out of this whole town to have my back! He was always there and I Still owe you!"

"You owe me nothing Chili. It was always an adventure when you were around" Toni claps at that and smiles bright, taking her cup and holding it up toward the air. "Cheers to reminiscing!" She shouts and all follow in raising their cups.

"Oooh boy. Toni it's about that time." Chili calls over toward his sister as he stands and walks around the table heading to the exit. Toni takes one last sip and stands up following her brother out the barn doors.

"Where are you heading?" Laceless calls out for the two. Chili turns back around and exclaims loudly.
"It's time to head home for us, but don't let your guy's night end so soon. Enjoy!" He then is out of sight along with his sister and now it's Laceless and Prince alone.

"Your friends are really incredible Laceless."

"They are. They've always been that way and I'm glad it hasn't changed since I've been gone.." the sun yellow squid takes his drink and sips up his soda.

"Laceless..what made you move from here anyway.." curiosity follows into Princes tone as he spoke. This question made the atmosphere uneasy and unpleasant. Prince now can see it since Laceless looked sorrowfully down at his cup.

"Laceless...you don't have to tell me I was just wondering..." Prince fearfully said wanting to erase what he asked of his teammate. But before Prince can complain any further Laceless shuts him down by speaking only a few words.

"I was bullied into leaving my home..."
