The prince and his maid

[CrimsonEclipse]

Ivan gulped, unable to deny how beautiful she looked. He quickly got into bed, facing away from her so that he could at least hide his nudity. "G-Goodnight." He said to her, secretly wanting her arms around him.

 

[Narumi]

Luna closed the bathroom door and pulled up the duvet so she could get into bed, pulling the duvet back up again. She curled up beside him, "Goodnight" She mumbles, softly.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

Ivan, feeling guilty that he ignored her and directly went to sleep instead of their usual talks, turned around and cuddled her. "Sorry for not staying up and talk with you, I'm just embarrassed." He whispered to her.

 

[Narumi]

Luna nodded. "Don't feel embarrassed, you can't really help the fact that you forgot your clothes and towel" She says with a light shrug, not particularly bothered by him being without any clothes.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

He smiled at her, sitting up. "Well then, I guess we'd get to chat after all." He said to her, truly loving their nightly chats and not wanting to miss them. "So, did my sister give you hard time?" He asked her, holding her hand.

 

[Narumi]

Luna smiles and say up as well, staring at him, though only his facial feature though soon looked down and blushed, unable to hold his handsome gaze. She smiles weakly as she held onto his hand. "You're sister was actually sleeping, so I could clean without any problems" She tells him with a nod.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

He smiles at her, happy that she didn't have a hard time. "I'm glad she was asleep. That's the only time she looks angelic." He said to her. He noticed her dropping her gazed and he sighed. He lifted her chin up and kissed her. "You should not be shy in looking in my eyes. We're going to be married soon, and I don't want you feeling awkward around me." He said to her.

 

[Narumi]

Luna nodded and looked at him. "I guess so" She murmured and then blushed as he placed his lips to hers, she couldn't help but look down again. "Are you sure you want to marry me? I mean, you can always change you're mind" She says, still feeling self conscious because she only a helpless maid and he was a wonderful prince, who should be marrying a princess.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

"Oh come on Luna, we talked about this before." He said, placing her on his lap. "I love you, and unless you don't love me back, I am sure that I want to marry you. I want you to be the mother of our child, or children if you want to. I want you to be my queen, to be the only girl I will ever love. Do you understand me my dear?" He asked her, kissing her forehead.

 

[Narumi]

Luna nodded, though there was a slight doubt somewhere in her eyes. She soon wrapped her arms around him, carefully and then began to fall asleep in his arms. She hadn't woken up until late afternoon and when she got dressed as fast as she could, and left her room a maid of about 30 or so was standing outside her door, glaring at her and then scolding her nastily for not doing her work.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

The prince, having chosen not to wake her up, went on with his daily activities. He was heading to Luna's room when he saw a maid scolding her. "What is going on here?" He asked her, looking in the maid's eyes.

 

[Narumi]

Luna blushed and looked down, biting her lip gently as she watched as the maid glared at the prince, giving a soft groan. "Why don't you mind your own business? I thought you had classes to go to or duties to be at?" She snapped.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

Ivan glared at the maid. "The business of the castle is my business. If you haven't forgotten, I am the prince. Now tell me what is going on here, or I shall have you sent away." He said in a stern voice, but he knew that some of it must be Luna's fault as well, but this woman just insulted him, and he will not let it slide.

 

[Narumi]

Jade, the name of the maid just glared at him. "I was telling her that she shouldn't sleep in and should get to work, right away, she shouldn't be so selfish, this isn't a free for all. Besides, I'd better get going, I have actual duties to see to" She snaps and then throws a cloth at Luna, barging past her.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

He sighed, going over to Luna. "I am sorry this happened." He said to her, kissing her forehead. "I should have waken you up when I did, knowing you had your chores. But it cannot be changed, and you must suffer the consequence, understood?" He said to her. "You will be working tonight, cleaning up until 10 in the evening. And to ensure nothing happens, I will be watching." He said to her.

 

[Narumi]

Luna sighed, slumping her shoulders and then rolling her eyes lightly to herself. She began to pull out her timetable and flick through the table, she had to do some work in the kitchen.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

Ivan sighed, cuddling her. "I'm sorry I had to do that my love, but I want to be fair to everyone. I hope you don't hate me for that." He mumbled to her, his face buried in the crook of her neck.

 

[Narumi]

Luna nodded and smiles at him. Later during the day she attended to her chores. She didn't complain and just got on with doing her chores. After she did her chores she went straight to bed after being tired and worked out.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

Ivan smiled. He stayed with her all day, making sure no one harrassed her and that she also gets to do her job. He helped around as well. As usual, he stayed the night in her room, comfortably cuddling with her. "Wake up my love." He gently said to her once he woke up, not wanting to repeat the events of yesterday.

 

[Narumi]

Luna had woken up and then got dressed as fast as she could. When she wandered outside of her door Jade wasn't there, though a young lady of about 20 or so and the palaces dresser was standing outside, smiling at her. She told her that she needed her for a few things, wedding related and pulled her into a dressing room. For most of the day. instead of doing chores she was asked to try on different dresses and try out different hairstyles. The dresser had made sure to find someone to cover for her. She wasn't allowed to see Ivan for the day.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

After his classes, Ivan proceeded to look for Luna. He looked for her, but the other maids said she'd been busy with other things, something relating to a wedding. So I van just went to her bedroom, lying down there, reading a book, cleaning the room, he did all things just to keep him occupied and busy until Luna came.

 

[Narumi]

Luna knew the wedding would be soon and she decided on a dress after a few hours of trying things on, the dress was only basic though she felt as if she was in love with the dress. She felt like she didn't want anything too big nor flashy, mainly because she just wanted things to be simple. She also decided on a hairstyle of which she though would suit the dress.

[CrimsonEclipse]

Ivan waited and waited, but it seemed to drag on forever. He eventually fell asleep on her bed, dreaming of her like he did every night. His meeting with the dresser is not due until today, the queen thinking it'd be best if the two lovers had separate appointments.

 

[Narumi]

Sienna wandered back into her bedroom after a long day and then shut the door gently as she saw Ivan sleeping. She went into her connecting bathroom and then closed that door, too. She tied her hair up and took off her clothes, trying to shower thoroughly. After showering for at least 10 minutes or so she turned to shower off, stepping outside with water dripping from her body. She dried herself and took hold of her nightgown of which she put on, she brushed her teeth and then turned the bathroom light off, wandering outside and shutting the door gently as she went into bed with him.

 

[CrimsonEclipse]

He felt her presence beside him and he smiled, still half asleep. He wrapped his arms around her, loving the way her body pressed against his. Even if they were not yet married, it felt like they have been married for a few years, at least, that's how it felt like to him. "You were gone a long time." He mumbled, kissing her cheek.
