Jason's POV

"Turn around your highness I must fix your crown." The tailor said as he steadily put my crown in place.
Today was the day I was going to 'celebrate'. I'm only sixteen, but this looks like I'm being crowned the crown prince. I don't like being a prince. As soon as I'm old enough I'm going to leave this palace and live a normal life. With Kani of course.
Aubrey is probably super excited to get to even stand in the same room as me, but I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were her.
"Your highness today is a very special day." The tailor says excitedly as he cleans up his supplies. What was weird was that my suit wasn't even black or even white. I wore a maroon suit with black shirt and shoes, and a blue and gold sash with badges. My hair was combed back neatly with my crown neatly in place.
I stared at myself. I really don't like being a prince.
"Yes, because today is my celebration." I said in a bored tone as I stepped off the small step stool that stood in front of a the mirror.
"Did the Queen not inform you your highness?" The tailor asked me worriedly.
"Inform me? Of what exactly?" I said as I tried my best to not sound irritated.
"The celebration is being pushed back one day. The Queen announced that today will be a grand ceremony for the couple and every kingdom is invited." The tailor said happily as he zipped up his bag.
"Will father be there?"
"Of course your highness it wouldn't be a grand ceremony without the king."
Perfect.
The tailor said as he threw his bag over his shoulder."Please be in the main hall by noon, Your highness."
I looked at myself in the mirror again.
All of this ends today.
All I have to do is sneak in my girlfriend, convince my mom, then happily ever after.
No pressure.

Kani's POV
__________________________________________________________________________________
I looked out the window of Jason's bedroom and watched as black limos, decorated with national flags, pull up to the front gate of the palace.
Looks like it will be a while until the celebration.
"We've come so far. It's almost been a year you know." Aaron speaks up from his place on the couch next to Luke that was in front of the window.
"It also has been one stupid decision you made, but I guess it was worth it." He said from the bed as he sat next to a sleeping Samantha.
I looked around the room. Everyone was keeping to themselves. The room had a soft sound to it, more like a whisper and as usual Joseph stood next to the door with a gun calmly rested in his head.
Joseph is officially my favorite person.
He's been in that position for hours.
"You look expensive."
I turn my head to Fryday then towards the sudden sound of the closet door closing shut.
Jason had finally finished his makeup routine and fashion show from his closet. He wore a maroon suit with black shirt and shoes. He did look expensive. He smiled at me when we made eye contact.
I stood up to stand up in front of him. I looked at his shoulder and took a piece of dust that lay on it."You look nice." I said as I smiled up at him.
He leaned next to my ear and whispered,"Would I look nicer without it?"
Immediately I grew hot and flick him in the forehead."What was that for?" He said as he rubbed his head."Take a wild guess." I said sounding irritated.
"Young master we leave in ten minutes." Joseph said in a serious tone.
"Alright here's the plan. First I leave for the ceremony thing then I'll call Joseph to signal you guys to start sneaking in. Then finally Kani and I will handle the rest. While me and Kani are handling everything you guys stay close just in case any guards come. Also watch out for my little sisters guards they'll be wearing blue shirts under there suits." Jason explained to ever and they all nodded in agreement.
Except Fryday.
"How do you know that this will 100% work?" Fryday said as he used his hand to stroke Samantha's hair from her face. She's been asleep for an hour and a half now.
Are they sure it's just a fever?
"Well FRYDAY can you stop being an inpatient brat and wait?" Aaron suddenly said which seemed to surprise Fryday, because his ears had turned red. Immediately Fryday turned back to what he was doing.
Anyway I felt excited. I couldn't wait to stand in front of the Queen's face and tell her what I wanted and why I deserved it, because in fact I do.
After everything I've been through and even before everything I've been through I deserved what I want.
This time she can't refuse, because what I want will also being staring right back at her.
That is if we can even get close enough to tell her anything and we need to watch out for Jayla's guards.
"Are you ready?"
I come back to reality after being lost in my thoughts when Jason's deep voice speaks again, this time towards me. I looked at his soft eyes and warm smile. It was welcoming. His hand was held out towards me signalling me to take it.
"Ready."
