ROYALTY

*ROBERT MERIVEL'S IMAGINE

*Y/N

I am a Princess of this country. It's hard when the King, your father wanted you to marry a man and there's a lot of pressure. The point is, incoming 21 years old princess is required to get married, for us to be crowned as the next in throne. We have a different rules here on our land. My family is holding my 21st birthday tonight. The truth is, I don't want to get married in the following 2 months. After this party, the 2 month time starts. Another bad news: My father will let me meet my future husband!! Why can't I marry my boyfriend? Dr. Robert Merivel.

I walked down the hallway and into the banquet, when I felt someone held my arm. I gasped and I looked at the hand and to the man. I released a sigh when I got to see who it was. 

"Robert, you scared me..." I said as I held my chest. 

"I'm sorry my darling. Do you have a spare minute?" Robert asked me.

"Of course." I said. I grabbed his hand and pulled him inside the nearest room. We went inside and saw the throne room. I closed the door behind him when I suddenly felt Robert's arm around my waist. I chuckled at his action and I looked at him. I put my hands on his chest and smiled at him. 

"You know you're the only one I love, right?" Robert asked.

"I know, darling. And I love you too, darling." I said.

"I love you too, my darling. Happy Birthday darling." Robert said. He leaned into me and we kissed. I replied to his kisses and I grabbed his cheeks and softly pushed him. 

"Robert, darling. This is not the place for this." I said.

"Then, let's go back to our secret place." Robert said.

"I can't, my love." I said.

"Is this about your marriage, isn't it?" Robert said as he held my hands. I just nodded my head and I pull him to me and hugged him. 

"I can't marry someone, unless it's you, Robert." I said.

"Me too, darling.. I can't let you go.." Robert said. I released the hug and I looked at him.

"It's time for me to go to the party." I said. He nodded his head and I slowly went near the door. I grabbed the handle and I looked at Robert. I ran to him and gave him a kiss. He held my waist and he twirled me. I slowly broke the kiss and I looked at him and gave him one last smile.

"I'll talk to you later, darling." I said.

"Okay." He said. I began to make way outside and into the banquet room. 

~During the party~ 

A slow song came. I am talking with my friends when I felt someone patted my shoulder. I looked behind me and saw Robert. 

"Hi.." I said. 

"Ladies, can I borrow the princess for awhile?" Robert asked my girl friends.

"Of course, doctor." They said. Robert is quite famous here, too. Robert lend a hand and I accepted it and he walked us in the middle of the ballroom. The two of us began waltzing. 

"I didn't know you're quite a dancer, Doctor Merivel." I teased.

"Oh, hush up darling. Only for you, my princess." Robert said and sent me a wink. Then, I slowly went near him and I put my head on his shoulder and we began slow dancing. I slowly look at him and we gave each other a big smile. 

"Can we be like this forever?" I asked softly.

"Oh darling, we will if you let me." Robert said. Fight the urge of kissing him! Fight it! A lot of people are looking at you!!

"You know, I wanted to kiss you right now, but I'm afraid we aren't the only people on this room." Robert said. I laughed at him and smiled.

"I've been thinking the same thing." I said. Just then, the song ended. Me and Robert pushed away from each other. The both of us bow down for a sign of gratefulness and respect. Robert then, grabbed my hand and gave a kiss on my knuckle. I blushed hard on him and I chuckled. Just then, we heard a trumpet. I looked at Robert and excused myself. He smiled at me and I went towards father.  

"Father, what is this?" I asked. 

"Wait for it, my princess." He said. Just then, he cleared his throat and I looked at my father. 

"A beautiful evening to all of us. Now, the person that I have been waiting for has finally arrived. Princess, consider this as the king and queen's gift. Let him in!" Father commanded. Just then, the door opened. I looked in front of me as the door opened and I saw Prince Jasper. He was my best friend when we were little children. We used to be homeschooled together, but his parents decided to fly to another country. This is the only time I saw him. Jasper began to walked near me. When he's in front of me, he bow down and I also did the same. He grabbed my hand and kissed my knuckles. 

"Long time no see princess punch." Jasper said.

"Long time no see prince cheeks." I said and we both giggled. Jasper looked beside me and he bow down in front of my parents. Mom and dad just bow a little and they stand straight. Jasper went beside me and we began talking. 

"How's Australia?" I asked him.

"It was fine. I adored it there but, I missed a lot here in London." Jasper began. 

"London misses you too, Jas." I said as I looked at my people.

"I hope the London's princess too." Jasper said. I looked at him and saw him looking at the crowd. When he saw me looking at him, he held out a hand at me.

"Come on darling. Dance with Jasper, I know you both missed each other." Mother said. I looked back at Jasper and held his hand. He led us in the middle of the ballroom and we make a space in between us. The guests began to make a big circle space for us.

"Just like the good ol' days?" I asked him as I raised an eyebrow at him and smirked. He chuckled and winked at me. 

"Just name it princess." Jasper said. The music started. We bowed at each other and the both of us circled each other, then we both turned, nearing each other until Jasper held my waist and I placed my hand on his shoulder. 

"I hope you still remember it." Jasper said.

"Dare me." I said.

"Challenge accepted." He said. The both of us began to waltz around the space and we can't help but smile. The waltz was fun and it comes to the end. The music slowly dies and I tipped on Jasper's arm while holding his shoulders in support. We both looked at each other and breathe hardly. Jasper softly pulled me to stand and I looked at the crowd as they clapped at me and Jasper. I saw Robert. His eyes were in pure jealousy. I let go of Jasper and just looked at Robert. He looked down at the ground and began to make way out of the room. 

"Y/N?" I heard Jasper's voice. I looked at him and back to Robert's direction. "Are you okay?" Jasper asked again.

"Yeah, I'm fine.." 

~After the party~

Right... They announced that Jasper will be the prince I was supposed to marry in 2 months time. I changed my clothes into a comfortable gown and made my way to my horse. I slowly crept my way outside the castle. I make way to me and Robert's secret place. Which is a mile away from the castle. It's a small hut near the river. 

When I reached the river, I looked at the hut and saw a lamp light coming from the hut. I tied the saddle onto the tree branch and went inside the hut. 

"Robert?" I called as I opened the door. I closed the door behind me and went inside the small bedroom. I saw him there sitting on the bed. He didn't bother looking at me. I sat beside him and held his hand. I put my other hand on his cheek and let him face me. 

"I'm forever yours, Robert." I said as I assured him.

"Not even Prince Jasper?" He asked.

"Not even his. I'm yours, Robert and you're mine." I said. He smiled a bit and I kissed his lips. And that night, something happened to us.
