Astrophilia

(n.) Rare love of/and obsession with planets, stars and outer space

Three years later

The young girl skipped happily through the fields, the tall grass swaying along with the wind.

She skipped and twirled around as the sun beamed brightly against her tan skin and the slight drizzle made her black hair impossibly darker, her eyelids shut covering her bright eyes from the world as she danced in bliss.

She heard a small yet strong howl followed by another, signalling the princes we're out to hunt for the young pup.

She squealed and kneeled down as the long grass hid her from sight, she tried covering her scent like her mother and father have been trying teaching her but by the time she had finally got it covered after about five tries she was gently tackled to the ground as her brothers dug their fingers into her stomach lightly as laughter erupted through the fields and bounced off the forest trees.

Her brothers which were only three years older than her we're seven while she had just turned three the following April.

The eldest pulled her onto his shoulders and gave her a gentle smile as the youngest twin ruffled her hair "charlotte, you must not go outside without informing one of us" he spoke his voice laced in worry, to which she frowned and noted sadly

"I'm sorry Alessandro" she spoke to her brother

The oldest ticket her again as she grabbed his head for support laughing once more "what about me, princess" he frowned sadly

"I'm sorry Riccardo," she said in a cute voice just like she did with the other

They all laughed after a moment of silence and the princes took off running through the grass as she still sat upon Riccardo shoulders as if it were a little throne.

They came to a stop and she opened her eyes seeing the great palace she hated, it was too lonely and big for such a tiny and young child.

That wasn't the thing that caught her eye, oh no it was the man and women that stood peering at the water fountain that was surrounded by beautiful dark red roses.

They turned on Que to see their three beautiful children. The woman had a beauty no one could compare to she had the silkiest dark brown hair, pale skin with the brightest of red eyes, she looked and stood like a true queen.

The father had black hair that shines a blue in the sun's light, silver eyes that pierced through anybody who dared look into his eyes.

All of the three royal children distributed the looks and character of their parents equally

Riccardo had his father's hair and eyes with the mother's skin tone and father's personality which was a cold one.

Alessandro looked like a copy of his mother but male looks with her personality which was bubbly and warm.

Charlotte looked like an exact replica of the king but way more girl like with a happy and cold personality that could be switched so easily.

"Daddy! Mommy!" She shouted and they walked up to the king and queen

Mateo, who was their father pulled the little girl into his arms resting her on his hip

"What about mommy?" Maria, the queen spoke pouting her bottom lip, to which the girl gave a sly smile

"Your such a daddy's girl?" Alessandro joked

Riccardo nodded in agreement and said "A big daddy's girl"
