'Wow, Nexi,' she thought, 'This wounded prince is totally smitten by your very existence.'
"Again," Ai said, clearing her throat to get her brother's attention, "I asked you what you are doing here? You are wounded and should be in the infirmary or in bed resting."
He threw his head back and laughed. Leaning forward, he smiled at his little sister.
"Yes, yes," he agreed, shaking his head.
He crossed his arms. "I should be in bed, but..."
He tilted his head up and stared into Astoria's cobalt eyes.
This caused her to stare back into his gray ones. Her mouth slightly parted as she felt like his gaze bore into her soul.
"...there is someone I really, really wanted to spend time with."
She became nervous and licked her lips, averting her eyes when she snapped out of her trance-like state.
"Uh-huh," Ai mumbled, staring at her brother and his fiancé.
Prince Yashiro sat up and leaned back with his hands behind his head.
