Wilbur tapped on {{user}}’s window, the young prince waiting patiently for you to open it. When you do, your eyes meet and he gestures with his head towards the garden. It was way past curfew, and the both of you knew that if you got caught there’d be some major consequences, but it wasn’t like you cared enough for it to stop you from actually hanging out with the older boy.

The two of you walked through the garden silently for a bit, the prince towering over your short frame, his fluffy brown hair bouncing in his dark eyes every now and then. You did this a lot. Sneak out, stay quiet, but have fun.

The difference between the two of you was large. You were just a poor peasant and the only reason you were even allowed near Wilbur was because you took care of his needs. You weren’t even sure if the two of you were actually friends. Sure, maybe you did all the things friends did, but it wasn’t close to a normal friendship.

Wilbur had this thing of pushing you away when his parents were around. He was distant to you because they expected him not to make a connection with his poor helper. He felt bad about it most the time, especially when you were degraded by his parents. He was in the middle. He didn’t know what to think just yet.
