I look down at my hands. They were cut, wounded, but...they were healing. Every muscle, bone, nerve, was going back in place. Dream stood there. I was in shock. He started to walk to me, and I pull back.
"Sapnap, it's okay. Breathe."
"No! Dream! Please! I don't want to hurt you"
"Sapnap...you won't hurt me. Trust me"
I was scared, afraid. I don't know how this ability came to work. I was afraid I would be the one to hurt the prince. Hot tears were falling. I get to my knees with my hands on the grass. I was crying.
"I'm scared..."
Dream sits down next to me, pulling me into a hug. I was still crying, I was so afraid, this was new to me. I cared so much about the prince, I think this is what activated it. Or that I was the one to cause him pain. I don't know if he cares about a silver blooded, in fact, maybe he does. He brought me to this forest, so show me something beautiful. He also told me he didn't want to see me in the battlefield. Staining it with my blood.
I pull from the hug, wiping the tears away.
"Guess this will be my goodbye. I'll be going to the battlefield pretty soon here"
I saw Dream's face change. Changed from sadness to anger or rage. His eyes shined like emeralds. He was furious. And I could tell it was the goodbye I said.
"You are NOT going to battle. I won't let you or anyone let you go to fight!"
"Look, Dream, I don't know why you won't let me go to battle. Look at me, I'm a silver. Even if I do have an ability, that won't mean nothing to the Kingdom"
"Because I care about you, Sapnap! I did! I did the day you and me exchanged hello"
My eyes widened. What was he talking about. Care about me? Sapnap? Sapnap of Soleue? He must be joking.
"I don't know if you actually mean it, Prince Clay. But if I broke the rules, I broke them. Even if they were by accident. I will go to that battlefield. I will fight, King's orders."
I stood up. And I could feel my voice feel harsh and stern. But it was the truth. No Palladium bloods ever feel pity for their inferiors. I was inferior, which meant I had to respect them. The prince was just a prince, he couldn't save me, no one could. Only death awaits for me.
I started to walk away. Never looking back. I could hear him walk too, probably pass me because I may have angered him even more. But why should I care. I'm silver.
I was almost to the first pillar, when I heard running. I told myself I wasn't going to look back, but I did anyways. Before I could process anything, there were a pair of lips against mine. I blinked several times. I pull back, and I looked at who kissed me.
It was Dream.
"Dream! What was that for?!"
I couldn't think straight. Did he just kiss me? A boy?! The same gender?!
"Like I said. I care about you a lot, and I'm not letting you go into that battlefield. I know we barely know each other, but I knew I loved you before you could even process it"
I was speechless. before I knew I loved him?! I know I found him attractive but I never knew he would swing that way! This has to be a dream. I must be on some herbs, I must be having a fever! Yes that's it! I dream of many weird things while I'm sick! This has to be it!
"I'm just dreaming, this isn't real, i'm just dreaming, this isn't real"
I kept mumbling those same words. I closed my eyes. Saying the same words. I open them back up, and he was still standing there.
"This isn't a dream?"
"Not at all. I just kissed you. Then you freaked out. And now you are denying that I care about you. Sorta harsh if you ask me"
My dialect.
He spoke my dialect. There was no possible way he knows how to speak like me!
People in Soleue had very different dialect than those in the Royal Family and High Houses. Our dialect was more casual if that's how I can describe it. We wouldn't have no fancy wording in it, only when speaking to higher class, of course.
"Are your speaking....Soleue??"
"Of course I Am, Sap!"
I couldn't believe it. He kept this from me. After all, he is palladium blooded. I was paralyzed. I couldn't speak, I couldn't move. He moved closer to me, and kissed me again. I could feel my cheeks start getting into flames. The prince was kissing me. He searched for my hands, and I let them find mine. He held mine. I kissed back. I was kissing the prince back. I was attracted to women, but, this felt right. We were kissing under the moonlight.
Before both of us knew about anything, Dream's Father was behind us.
"Father! I- I can explain!"
"Non-sense! I thought you were better than this. I thought I told you about you destiny as King of Solaris! I trusted you, you gave me your word, son. And where do I find you? kissing another guy. not any, though. A SILVER!"
"Father please! I kissed him first!"
"I don't care who kissed first. All I know is that you broke that trust. And now, he will face the same fate as Gabriel"
Gabriel.
Was that the person he fell in love with? The stories where he fell for someone he wasn't supposed to? Now....I face the same as him, I suppose. I walked in front of Dream. I already knew I was going to die sooner or later.
"Sapnap! What are you doing! Get behind me!"
He shouted.
The king held a sword. I stood in front of him.
"I am Sapnap, A silver blooded. And I am ready to receive my fate"
I could hear Dream yell, shout, cry. He really did care. Care for a Silver. But. It would only kill him in the process.
The king recited these exact words.
"Sapnap, of Soleue. I know pronounce you a parasite to my son. I am very happy you didn't fight back, as thought my son cares about you."
And I got stabbed. Stabbed though the stomach. I spitted out loads of silver blood. It was dripping from the sword stab, to my eyes. I was crying silver blood.
I felt the sword leave my body, leaving a huge wound. I fell to the ground. I could feel Dream's tears fall on my face. How am I still alive? How am I still thinking.
The silver blood stained his hands.
"Why does everyone die once I start caring about someone. Why you?"
Those words hurted me. He was hurt. But, I was silver. I will always be silver. I should have expected this.
"Please, Sapnap....don't leave me"
Before I knew it, my wound healed. I forgot.
My ability.
"Sapnap! Your wound! It's healed"
The king stepped back. He was surprised. I stood up. Weak but still able to stand up. I wasn't thinking, but something or someone took over my body. My voice sounded different.
"I am Sapnap Titanos. From House Cyber. You stabbed the only member left of the family. You are a disgrace of the Kingdom."
The king, was afraid?
"Please! King Titan! I beg of you! I didn't mean it!"
King Titan??
