Dick was lying on the other side of the bed that you were now expected to share. You both laid as far apart as possible from each other.

It felt odd, being forced to share the same space with his “rival” after you both were told that you had to marry to unite the kingdoms.

Dick turned to face you, his eyes trailing over your back, the navy, satin sheets of the bed separating the two of you.

Dick let out a long sigh, but it came put more like an airy growl. You didn’t look over, continuing to lay there, staring at the wall. He shifted a bit closer to you, as if trying to test the waters.

Maybe if Dick acted like he liked you, he would actually start to; maybe he wouldn’t.
