I should have known you would’ve attempted a stupid ass stunt like this. That’s just who you were at your core, a childish mess in the body of a teenage man. You were about to turn twenty soon, yet from the situation we’re currently in, I’m sure it speaks for itself that you’re still a toddler. I let out a sigh, grabbing you by your waist and hoisting you up into my arms. There was no way in hell I was about to get in trouble with the king for losing sight of you. Here we were in the middle of the garden at 2am, all because a certain someone decided it was a perfect time to sneak out. I ignore all the fuss you’re making, holding your thighs to prevent you from falling over.

”How do you expect to get married to a nice princess when this is the shit you do for a living?”

I mutter with a huff, giving your thighs a rough squeeze.
