“He is not going to believe you Will.” Jake stated. “He is a very wise man not to do so. Having not known me nor you, he is wise to deny us service. Please just send it to the castle room five, by seven. We have no money for this, and I know you allow all members of the royal family free clothes from here. So deliver it to the castle and I am sure Queen Emily or Queen Elanor will be there to receive it and I will find it with them. Thank you.” Jakob left the building.
“That is the guard for Princess Kaylee, he is going on her date with Prince Michael of Moedia. If he is late to her dinner...need I say more?” He threatened.
“Elanor, pleasant surprise. Had I known, I would have asked Mitchell over.”
“Hmm. Still don't trust him?”
“Elanor, Elanor. I trust my brother and I trust you, it's the situation I don't trust. I would much rather have him here as well, so he can see for himself I am not trying to win my ex-wife back.”
“No. Otherwise you would already have me. I told him this before.”
“You told him that had I wanted you, you would be mine? That was cruel.”
“The truth is often cruel. Need I offer examples?”
“No, but I would like it if you were with him and he could hold you, and love you, and look deeply into your eyes and...just go be with my brother and accept he is all of me your ever going to get.”
“One day your going to wake up, after Emily has died, and realize she wasn't who you were supposed to be with all along.”
“Nevermind your prejudice. What have you come for, hurry, say it and leave it in peace.”
“I wanted to ask something. Why is Emily watching over our kingdom?”
“Emily is Queen. She is second in command, she is someone who will trust me enough to do as I ask.”
“Mitchell should be running this kingdom! Or at least I should! You put Emily in charge, she has never run a kingdom before!”
“This is the first generation of royalty, no one here has any knowledge of running a kingdom! That's why we marry a royal prince in and he will know. And his eldest daughter will do the same.”
“I don't believe this. I am your third, only after Kaylee, who cannot run this kingdom at this moment.”
“I offered Mitchell the job of second, he refused. Told me Kaylee was perfectly capable, if you want to blame someone, blame Mitchell. For now Emily is running this kingdom and I will be out soon. Goodbye, Elanor.”
“Tyson, you loved me once...”
“Goodbye, Elanor.” He interrupted.
“Tyson! Shut up and listen to me. You loved me once, you love me still, your anger has blinded you into thinking Emily is the one for you. I am the only person who really understands you, Tyson.”
“And I beg to differ, Elanor. I am proud to say that, even when Tyson believed I had cheated on him, he didn't leave me. Sure he did a thing that, probably, feels worse than death itself.” Emily walked in and sat next to Tyson and held his hand.
“He did so with me, if you need help remembering. It is because he still loves me.”
“I didn't hear him deny that, but I did hear him when he tells me that he loves me more, he loved me first, he thought of my well being in every word he has ever said, and that he will continue to do so for all of our lives.”
“I hope that when he realizes I am the love of his life, he makes it painfully truthful. Because, I would hate to know he lied to you so much, to bring another lie in.”
“Elanor! Leave me and my wife to our own. I have never lied to you, Emily. That is why I suggest we leave, when Kaylee is wed, and we have no worries about her. So no one can cause doubts in your head, that I love you more than life itself, and that when I hurt you, it comes back ten fold.”
“Do not make her leave, I came to say I love you and Kaylee has agreed to go to dinner with Michael.”
“So I assume this means Jakob has agreed to dinner with Michael and Kaylee?”
“Of course. How to separate true love?” He chuckled a bit. Then they kissed long and hard. Emily eventually pushed away. “I have things to tend to, but when it is over, I hope this will pick up where it left off.”
“Not a doubt.” He smiled. Emily left to her room.
“So give me the specifics. What, when, and where?”
“I don't know everything, milady. I believe it's dinner, a movie, and then he plans to take you to a field where you can gaze up at the stars. He said it was your sister's favorite.” He smiled.
“Will, do you think he has a thing for her?”
“Well, when comparing princess to princess, no offense to Lanie, but I don't believe it's much of a competition. You are beautiful and truthfully, had Jake not fallen for you, I don't know if I could've prevented marrying you myself.” He stood face to face with her, his hand touching her cheek. They stayed like that for a while. “But he has,” He backed away, “and I respect his choice. He is a good man, Kaylee, trust me. Don't break his heart.”
“I would never...”
“You would. For your family, you would do anything, but I swear to you the payout on staying with him is worth the price. The gambling was never your thing, I know, but this is a guaranteed thing. I would never let you take a risk without that.”
“Is this you giving up?”
“I have to...Kaylee for you...and Jake. I just know that...he will take better care of you than I can.”
“I know this is hard for you. I'm proud of you, but the way this is, reminds me of Emily. She had two suitors, one she was in love with, and one she settled for. I am not settling, though. I love you both. In the end, she ended up with the one who was there the entire time. And that's not Jake. In fact it was my father who she ended up with and he backed away, because he thought Chilles was the better man. He was wrong, Will! What if your wrong? What if I end up back with you? Will, I...” He cut her off. His lips were soft and his breath sweet and warm. She forgot her worries and she forgot Jake. Until he pushed away from her. “Will...” Her breath was gone. She had forgotten what Will once, and still, meant to her. “Why would you give up?” She was close to tears, her hands instinctively reached up to her face. He grabbed her hands.
“I gave up, because you have enough pressure to last a lifetime. I don't need you to make decisions that you can't handle. If you end up with me in the end, you end up with me in the end, that's not so bad is it?” He put his hands on her cheeks. “But I don't think it will. I think this is pretty much set in stone, don't you?”
“No.” She whispered. “This isn't. I love you, Will. I love you.” She grabbed him and his lips, though eager, were cautious.
“I love you, too. I love you so much that it hurts, and I love you enough to let you go.”
“I love you just enough this is painful, but not enough to let you go.” She held him again, his breath warm, his lips smooth. She hopped on the bed, he knelt over her. He grabbed her shirt and pulled it off. He loomed over her, seeing deep in her eyes. He grabbed the small of her back and pulled it to him. Then he let her drop. He pointed his ear towards the door. “Under the bed! Go, go, go, go.” She whispered. She pushed him off the bed. The indistinct footsteps becoming louder. Than the thud of a fist against her wood door. She ran over and put on her shirt. “Coming!” She rushed over to the door, turned the knob, and pulled. It came with too much force and she fell back. She prepared for the hit, but it never came. She just felt pressure on her back.
“Are you okay?” Will asked.
“I'm fine. Let me up.”
“Kaylee, maybe you should lay down. You were nearly hurt. Will,” Jake pointed towards the bed. “Please.” Will moved her. He stared into her eyes the entire way. “Will, I was curious, how is your brother?”
“Craig is great, he isn't moving through the army like he'd like to, but...who can say they haven't been there?” They laughed.
“I was just coming to drop this off with you.” It was diamonds set in a heart locket on a black satin ribbon.
“Kaylee, I have to go. The new shift has started, I'm off tonight. I'll see you later?”
“Of course. I might have to make you take a double shift tomorrow.”
“A double shift?” He asked.
“I have a security issue with going out tonight. Moed prince. You know.”
“Kaylee if Will doesn't want to do it, I am part of the army.” Jake stated.
“I know, I just...don't know if we should...stay near eachother all the time. I don't want to get tired of you. A nice break would be easy, just one day. Then we're back to being together.” Will turned and started walking away. “You never replied.”
“You know I will always protect you.” He walked away. He had to face the hardest decision he was ever faced with.
“What was that all about?” Jake asked, concerned.
“You know my dating history, right? Or do I have to explain it?”
“What does that have to do with Will, Kaylee?” He asked suspiciously.
“I don't think it matters.”
“It's between my best friend and my girlfriend, I think it matters. Tell me that you and him weren't...close.”
“We were...friends, Jake. We were friends.”
“We were friends. Is that what happened? Did you two date?”
“Jake. You're kinda stepping into jealous boyfriend territory.”
“No. Kaye, I think his shirt was messed up and I saw yours-it was just put on. He's my best friend and you are my life, I can't lose you both.”
“You don't have to. Jake, it's you and me. It's us, nothing separates us, right?”
“Sleeping with my best friend might make a complication in your plans, Kaye! Say the words.”
“What words, Jakob?”
“Me and William did not date, we were not and are not in love. Please.”
“I can't, Jake. I can't lie to you.” She started to cry.
“You and...and...Will?” He put his hand to his face. “Which is it? Which is it, Kaylee?! Are you in love with Will?”
“I am, but it's not what your thinking.”
“You are in love with my best friend! Kaylee, do you understand, I can't go up against my...even for...I was fine going up against Prince Michael of Moedia, but Kaylee, Will, too?”
“Jake, we were in love. Me and him...we weren't good together. We kept it a secret, sneaking around, I was losing sleep. I begged him to tell my father and he said I couldn't. We weren't supposed to be together, that that was why Jumalat made royalty and classes. I was brokenhearted, he felt we
