The very next day, breakfast in the palace dining hall was quite awkward for both couples. The four of them were in one room, all by themselves.
Since Emma and James knew exactly what Lily and Connor were up to last evening, it had turned the conversation all-the-more awkward, considering Lily and Connor were both terrible at keeping secrets of their own.
"Hello Connor's bro-"
"I meant James. Hey, James," Lily corrected.
Emma bit her lip, forcing back a laugh as this was one of the first times she'd seen Lily flustered.
Connor was doing no better either, his face as red as Lily's as he kept quiet.
Funny thing was, had they had known Emma and James were no different than them and had let their desires get the best of them, the awkwardness of the conversation would've definitely lessened. They were all adults after all.
There was a mischievous glint in Emma's eye before she asked, "So, what were the two of you up to yesterday?"
