"Well, a lot of the times they like to complain about how sore their feet are or how much their backs hurt. I've gotten used to those things so I don't really notice it anymore. Often times, though, it's gets kind of sad. They can tell how fast His Royal Highness is withering away..."

He nodded sadly. "Yes... it's hard to watch, honestly..."

She nodded, though a light smile formed on her face. "Yes, but not everything the maids talk about is negative. A lot of them have watched Princess Luana grow through stages of her pregnancy and are very excited to welcome the royal baby! Probably not as excited as you though, right?"

His cheeks flushed bright red and he nodded. "I'm very excited... believe it or not, I've always wanted to be a father..."

"I think you'll make a great one, and Luana will be a great mother as well. I'm so happy for you two, and the baby will be lucky to grow up with such loving parents~!"

He grinned and looked to her shyly. "Thanks... I just hope the baby is healthy and happy."

"I'm sure it will be. Won't be long now, will it?" She giggled, continuing to drink her tea.

"Not too long at all..." he murmured, grinning happily to her. "Have you ever wanted to have a family?"

She nodded quickly, her cheeks a rosy pink. "Oh yes, it's one of my dreams in life~! I'd love to meet a nice man that I can settle down with and raise a family."

His heart sank a bit and he nodded quickly. "I'm sure... I'm sure you'll find someone amazing. Someone worthy of you."

She giggled again. "Well, right now my life is completely taken up by the palace. That dream has been put on the shelf, I'm afraid."

"If that's something you want, though, shouldn't you go after it sooner rather than later..?"

She laughs. "What man could I find while still employed here? I have no money, so I cant really leave and live on my own, so I'm a little stuck. Besides, no man has ever been interested in me in such a way, so it isnt going to happen anytime soon anyways."

She shrugged. "Sure, theres someone for every one and all that jazz... But it's easier to have faith in that when you've found your person, like you have in Luana."

His heart sank even more and a sad smile came to his face. "Y-yeah... I.... I guess so...."

She observed his face and she sighed. "I'm sorry, I... I'm still very happy for you two, but I guess I'm a little jealous."

Post by Aurelia on Oct 23, 2018 21:29:25 GMT -5
He shook his head. "No... it's not something to be jealous of, Angie."

She blinks. "But... It is, at least to me. I'm always jealous when I see happily married couples, though."

"It's not exactly a happy marriage."

She tilted her head, a confused expression coming onto her face. "What do you mean...?"

He sighed and shook his head. "She... she doesn't love me. I know that."

"How could she not? You two are having a baby together!"

"Our marriage was arranged... and the point of it was for her to have a baby."

Angie frowned, looking down. "I'm sorry... I didn't know. I, as well as many other people, are under the impression that you two love each other very much. I could never imagine living in a loveless marriage..."

He shook his head. "It's not all that bad... she's a wonderful woman, and we're very close friends. I'm really glad that I can be here to support her... it's just kind of hard knowing that she won't ever love me in the way I always thought my wife would."

Angie was quiet for a moment, staring down at her hands that were folded in her lap. "...Do you love her?"

Post by Aurelia on Oct 24, 2018 0:11:00 GMT -5
"Of course I love her... but it isn't really in a romantic way. She's my family, so how could I not care?"
|

|
|
Post by HerWhisperIsTheLucifer on Oct 24, 2018 0:11:41 GMT -5
She nodded slowly, looking back up to him. "So what will you do...? Don't you desire to be truly loved in a romantic way by somebody?"

"Of course I do... doesn't everyone? But I can't force her... love can't be forced."
