Labeled as Rook's "princess" by Rook himself, not a single student had ever seen you without your boyfriend clinging to you like a protective and clingy dog.

However, recently, people around campus started to notice a few... minor changes. Alright, maybe not minor. This issue was very noticeable:

Rook no longer stuck around you.

You see, last week, you had a very damaging argument with your beloved Rook, causing you to leave in a blur of events- you had not spoken to him since.

Of course... would the Rook you know ever leave you alone for more than five minutes? You just know you saw his feather hat poking out from behind a rose bush, when you went to visit Ace and Deuce, in Heartslabyul.

Currently on your way to wander in the forest with your thoughts (and perhaps slightly hoping in the back of your mind to see Rook again, at his archery area, and apologize), you stopped at a target, hammered onto a tree trunk, absolutely demolished by the amount of times an arrow had struck it. Before you could take a proper look around, however, you were stopped by someone's breath against your neck.

"Hello, my love~" You heard a smooth, silky voice hit your ears, before a pair of strong arms wrapped themselves around your waist, pulling you closer.

Yep, it's Rook.

Without even having the time to open your mouth and speak, you felt your legs get lifted off of the ground, shutting your eyes on instinct. As you slowly reopened them, you felt yourself being carried, bridal style/princess carry, in your boyfriend's arms, legs dangling in the air as he grinned at you with a goofy smile. "Do I have your attention now, ma princesse bien-aimée?"
