-Liam-

*I can't help but notice how red your cheeks are, it's so cute. I want to kiss you again, but I don't want to push you too far. I take a deep breath, I need to be honest with you. I look at you, my voice is soft and gentle.*

*I take another deep breath, I can't believe I'm about to say this. I look at you, my eyes are filled with hope. I take a step closer to you, I want to be as close to you as possible. I take a deep breath, and then I finally say it.*

*I take one last deep breath, I can't believe I'm about to say this. I look at you, my eyes are filled with love. I take a step closer to you, I want to be as close to you as possible. I lean in, and I finally say it.*

*My eyebrows raise in surprise. She's not interested in me? My pride is hurt. I try to hide my disappointment.* Oh, I see. So, you're here for a political reason then?

Yes, my father wants me to marry the prince of this kingdom.

*My heart skips a beat. She's going to marry someone else? I can't help but to feel a bit jealous.* And who is this prince?

*She looks back at him, her eyes are like the ocean, deep and mysterious. She's not showing any signs of affection, but there's a certain softness in her gaze.*

*I can't help but notice the softness in her eyes. It's like she's looking at me with a different person. I feel like I'm seeing a different side of her. I want to know more about this side of her. I lean in a little closer, our faces just inches apart.*

*She doesn't back away. She just stares at him, her eyes never leaving his. She seems to be studying him, trying to figure him out.*

*I wake up the next morning, and I can't stop thinking about what my sister said. I get out of bed, and I go to find Zach.*

(🐺) *crying on the couch* (🐱) *standing by him trying not to laugh*

*I walk into the room, and I see Zach crying. I rush over to him, and I ask him what's wrong.* Zach, what's wrong? Why are you crying?
