"I-I'm sorry big brother Bradley! Ca-Can I play with Aurel later?"
Sura shyly asked causing Bradley to then nod before then remembering the young prince's current state.
"Aurel is currently recovering from an accident that happened not to long ago.. but I'm sure he'd be excited to see you!"
Bradley warmly reassured surprising Sura causing her adorable little heart to then drop.
After explaining parts of Silas's 'cover' story and eventually ending with the young prince now being 'ok' Sura had soon calmed down before then adorably thanking Bradley.
After Sura had left Emilia had soon left to visit Aldra and to also check up on the young prince.
All the while Silas had convinced Bradley that 'he'd' deliver his letter to The Queen of The Kingdom of Fluff himself after briefly telling Selphie of the situation while everyone else slept surprising her before then nodding.
All the while after what felt like an hour Silas had soon returned soaked in Grape Juice.. surprising Bradley, Aldra, Annie, and Amber.
And Selphie while both Theodore and Emilia were away making preparations causing everyone to then helplessly smile.
"Pft! Si-Silas your back.. I take it you offended The Queen of Fluff in some way?"
Selphie adorably laughed causing Annie, Amber, and Aldra to then try their best to control their laughter causing Silas to then playfully pout.
"That adorable Maggie would never do such a thing.. a certain 'little' girl on the other hand, after having introduced myself as 'Uncle' Silas didn't like it one bit.. I'd rather get bullied by Amber than take a Grape Juice to the face any day!"
Silas embarrassedly confessed surprising everyone causing Amber to then laugh all the while causing Aldra to then frown and Bradley to then sweat.
"Si-Silas.. I-I already told them.. so I take it Octavia did this?"
Bradley hesitantly asked causing Silas to then hesitatingly nod.
"Devyn and Maggie are as precious as ever! I should really visit them more.. bu-but yes you'd be correct, if I were to describe her I'd only be able to describe her as a mixture between Aurel, Amber, and Annie.."
"And some of Hanah as well if that's any help? I can't believe someone that adorable other than our Amber can be so fierce! I mean Amber is precious and it goes well with her charm but with Octavia it's unpredictable.. I think she hates me!"
Silas depressingly confessed surprising everyone causing Amber to then blush before then immediately being hugged by Silas.
Causing her to prepare her elbow before then noticing Silas was in fact genuinely depressed which was rather strange coming from him of all people.
Causing her to then adorably note it down and sigh before then gently patting him on the back causing Aldra to then frown once more into Bradley's direction causing him to then sweat even more.
'I've never seen 'brother' Silas in such a state.. or heard him ever say anything negative about someone's character like that before. I blame Bradley for this..'
Aldra thought.
Before then slapping Bradley in the back of his head much as Silas had done earlier.
Surprising everyone, however, this time there was only silence causing Emilia to then frown all the while causing Aldra to then quickly freeze before then noticing that frown was in fact directed towards her causing her to then helplessly sweat.
All the while Silas was still hugging Amber much like a teddy bear causing both him and Amber to then adorably look to each other.
Before then immediately looking back to both Bradly and Aldra with adorably shocked expressions causing Annie to then laugh.
"I love this! Do it again!"
Annie jokingly laughed surprising everyone even more causing Aldra to then do it once more causing Emilia to then frown once more.
"Aldra! This is unbecoming of you.. stop with these childish antics and save it for your.. 'alone' time, no one's truly to blame for this.. for now, you two should focus on what's truly important.."
"Bradley you can decide what to do officially however, for now, we now have another Celestial Princess in the fray, and Aldra as a mother you should already know you now have another daughter as well.."
"If I remember correctly both you and Princess Devyn were once inseparable? I don't see why you two shouldn't be again.. now enough with indecision! think of the children"
Emilia reprimanded surprising everyone causing both Aldra and Bradley to then immediately freeze causing both to then look to each other with uncertain yet gentle expressions before then nodding in agreement.
"Forgive me, Emilia.. Bradley, between Aurel's accident and my pregnancy I might have allowed my frustration and hormones to get the better of me.. I don't blame you Bradley but.. we'll still need to have a very long.. 'talk' after this"
Aldra guiltily apologized causing Bradley to then immediately nod before then breathing a sigh of relief causing Aldra to then look to Silas with a curiously gentle expression.
Causing him to then sweat before then hugging Amber even tighter causing Annie to then playfully smile.
"Brother Silas.. how is Devyn faring? Has she changed much since our last meeting?"
Aldra asked surprising him causing Silas then playfully shake his head.
"She hasn't changed one bit.. but now I'm curious! Did someone talk badly behind my back? Or did she really just hate the idea of having an 'Uncle' Silas? Maybe I should have stuck with Big Brother instead?"
Silas asked causing Emilia to then gently shake her head.
"I'd imagine you're thinking too much into it Silas.. It could be that your 'association' with Bradley and you mentioning 'uncle' may have set her off.."
"It could be quite possible that she may hold some form of resentment towards Bradley, she may have already thought he abandoned her or any number of reasons"
Emilia reassuringly explained causing Bradley's heart to then quickly drop once more causing Aldra after noticing this to then reassuringly hug Bradley from behind.
"Bradley.. no matter what she may 'think' you're still her father, and as for Devyn.. no matter how I hate the idea of there being another woman I have no genuine hate for her.."
"We were practically sisters since childhood and as Emilia had already previously mentioned Octavia would also be considered 'my' daughter as well? I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited about that prospect"
Aldra reassuringly confessed causing Bradley to then helplessly smile before then quickly slapping his face and calming down causing Annie to then playfully smile.
"Technically speaking a King or even a 'Celestial' King can have more than 'one' wife! It's not unheard of but it would somewhat complicate things.. Aldra would either use her Elven or even Celestial honorifics as to show she's the main wife"
"Or you can also take The Celestial Consort route! Either wouldn't be that of a big deal she'd still have as much power as a High King or Queen!"
Annie happily chimed in surprising Bradley causing him to hesitantly look to Aldra causing Aldra to then helplessly sigh.
"We'll let Devyn decide.. but knowing her she'd most likely prefer 'Celestial' Consort since the title alone is quite rare and unique and more to her liking.. however, you'll have to take responsibility.."
"So I'd imagine a second wedding would do, Octavia would also still need to 'become' a Celestial Princess.. along with also be considered a 'junior' to our unborn child as for seniority sake.. we can talk about the 'rest' later"
Aldra suggested causing Bradley to then immediately nod in agreement causing Emilia to then gently nod with approval causing both Silas and Amber to then helplessly smile.
All the while after what felt like hours had passed the young prince had finally woken up after giving Celes, Lilly, Sylvia, and Aurora all of his divided affection causing him to then adorably rub his eyes.
Before then adorably snuggling the sleeping Rory some more causing her to then adorably wake up before then becoming teary.
"Au-Aurel? You're awake.. I've missed you so much! I-I'm so sorry! I-I shouldn't have left! I should have gone with you!"
"If I did you wouldn't be so hurt! I-I don't want to lose my little brother! I-I don't want to lose my Aurel! I-I love you so much! Ple-Please! Don't ever leave me again!"
Rory adorably cried causing the young prince's heart to then drop before then immediately becoming teary causing him to then adorably Rory even tighter.
"I-It's not Rory's fault! I-I'm a selfish bully! I-I made Rory cry.. I'm so sorry Rory! I-I love you so much! I-I don't want to lose my Rory too! An-And I promise.. I-I'll never ever leave Rory again!"
The young prince tearily promised causing both to then adorably cry even more, after releasing all their built-up frustration and self-blame both had soon calmed.
Moments later both were soon greeted by Annie, Silas, Emilia and Mili causing Emilia to then gently feel his head causing Mili to then adorably look to the young prince with an adorably worried expression.
Causing the young prince to then adorably rub his eyes once more before then immediately hugging Emilia.
"I-I missed you!"
The young prince weakly exclaimed causing Emilia to then gently smile.
Causing Rory to then adorably follow the young prince's example before then adorably hugging Emilia as well.
"I-I missed you too!"
Rory excitedly exclaimed as well causing Emilia to then gently kiss both on their foreheads.
Causing Mili to then adorably pout before then hugging all three followed by both Silas and Annie.
"So precious! Have you two eaten yet? How can you recover if you don't have a full belly? Tell them, Emilia!"
Annie adorably chimed in causing Emilia to then playfully nod before then remembering something.
"Aurel.. It seems 'Elfine' had also sent me a letter.. I never would have expected you'd meet her so soon?"
Emilia remembered before then gently poking the young prince's cheek.
Causing him to then also remember before then immediately blushing surprising Emilia.
"It seems she was also correct about you blurring our faces.. your truly precious Aurel"
Emilia gently teased causing the young prince to then adorably look to Rory next before then immediately becoming flushed.
Surprising Rory causing her to then adorably look to the young prince with an adorably confused expression causing Emilia to then gently smile before then looking to Mili who also had an adorably confused expression.
"I'd imagine you do the same?"
Emilia asked causing Mili to then adorably blush before then looking down surprising Annie causing Emilia to then softly whisper to the others surprising everyone.
All the while causing Annie to then playfully smile.
"Mili! Look at me!"
Annie excitedly asked causing Mili to then adorably look up before then becoming flushed once more causing Annie to then excitedly smile.
Before then immediately hugging Mili.
"So precious and cute!"
Annie warmly exclaimed before then kissing Mili's cheeks over and over again.
Causing him to then blush even more all the while causing something to adorably click in Rory's brain before then immediately looking to the young prince with an adorably excited expression having finally realized what the other meant.
"Au-Aurel look at me!"
Rory excitedly asked causing the young prince to then immediately become flushed once more causing Rory to then adorably follow Annie's example.
Before then happily kissing his cheeks over and over much like Annie had done with Mili causing both Mili and the young prince to remain in a constantly blushed or flushed state.
After the adorable antics had ended they had soon heard adorable footsteps and a sound of a cart.
Before then surprisingly being greeted by Sura of all people trying her best to push the heavy extravagant golden cart twice her size filled with covered plates before then finally making it into the infirmary.
Surprising everyone before then quickly rushing over to adorably hug both Mili and Rory before then finally the young prince.
"Big brother Bradley told me everything! How are you feeling? Are you hungry? Do you need another hug?"
Sura worriedly asked causing the young prince's heart to then slowly melt before then adorably nodding.
Causing Sura's to then eyes to then adorably sparkle before then excitedly hugging both Rory and the young prince.
