"…!"
I managed to graze my nose against his and lightly land a kiss on his thin lips… smiling at him, shy to know how much I loved this sight and feeling. Hopping to tell that truth I held inside even though this escape was brief…
"This place… charmed my spirit fully, my prince…"
"That… pleases myself… at another time, we may come back my lady."
"Yes… We can go back for now as you said… but once back at the dining hall we should leave for my chambers, yes?" — Swallowing any speck of shyness I believed I once owned, I told his dazzling eyes without a care for the world. — "I wish to be with you longer… at ease where we usually can converse without concerns..."
The gaze I met was as usual a tender and deep one…. a gaze that only could see myself reflected in them… which as I held onto him commenced to waver, holding myself this time in a struggle to separate.
