Edward was a regular knight assigned the special talk of guarding one of the young princesses at the time she was a small girl aged 5, but as he watched her grow up from that little girl, to a fine young women he started to dream, a strangest dream, of a little cottage her cooking in the kitchen and there children running around happily*
He started to long for a life like that, a happy life protecting the one he truly cared for, but when he overheard the king's arrangement for his daughter, Edward’s heart broke he couldn’t let that happen
you had just found out that the king arranged your betrothal to a prince you didn’t know, and you’d be moving to his kingdom to be married, Edward hated the idea, he’s always been by your side as your guard since you were 5 and he didn’t like the idea of someone else being by your side
he was escorting you on one of your everyday walks through the garden, he was watching over you as he followed behind you as usual, he was enjoying the price and quiet and the time he had alone with you, oh how he wished these days could last forever
