It's sakuraseason! This is my first Code Geass fic, so please be nice when you review. Prince Schneizel is so hot so I decided to write a fanfic about him! Cecile works for Lloyd. (See Code Geass episode 19 about 4 min 30 sec in) This story takes place then. Enjoy, please revew!

I remember when I first saw him…

I was sitting on a platform leading to the Lancelot about 13 ft. above the floor. Typing up the report of the mission for Lloyd as usual, it was interrupted.

Lloyd came into the room, talking to someone that my eyes couldn't make out in the partial darkness. Then when the person stepped into the light I knew exactly who it was: the 2nd prince of Britannia, also the Prime Minister: Prince Schneizel. My eyes scanned over him. His blond locks and lavender eyes seemed to shine in the light. His poise, voice…everything was perfect. He looked up at me and said, "I've been looking forward to meeting you, Miss Cecile Crumi. I am-"

"Prince Schneizel, right here?!" After that statement, I wanted to kick myself. I could've gotten into major trouble for doing that!

"You imprudent, little…" General Bartley ran over, stopping beside His Highness, "How dare you look down upon the second prince of the Empire?!" He shook his fist at me.

"G-general Bartley!" Shocked and appalled, I stood up quickly. Unfortunately for me, being the klutz that I am, lost my balance and fell to the ground on my butt. My mouth let out a whimper of pain, eyes shut.

"Nice one," Lloyd stated.

I heard footsteps coming my way, "You're not injured, I hope…" My eyes opened. Standing in front of me was His Highness, slightly bent down, holding out his hand, a slight smile on his face. "Yes, I'm Prince Schneizel el Britannia", he continued, "Please, give me your hand."

I shyly slid both of my hands into his. He helped me to my feet. All I could muster to say was, "Yes" a bit late. While that was going on the general stated appalled and shocked, "She's unworthy!"

"General, you're quite a devoted subject aren't you?" Lloyd inquired, turning towards him.

"Primarily, because the prince is the one who commuted my sentence and saved me from being chained up deep beneath temple tower."

His Highness turned around halfway, still holding my hand, "I wish you wouldn't think of me so formally. You've been a great help to me in this current matter, as you were to my brother, Clovis. It is I who am grateful to you."

"My, my lord!" The general sputtered.

"Please, Bartley" Prince Schneizel said. Turning back to me (still holding my left hand), "Now, my lady Cecile, if you'll excuse me…" He bent down slightly putting my hand to his lips.

"Your…your Highness!" My cheeks went bright red. He stood back to his perfect strait poise, smiling, "Farewell" he turned around and walked away, leaving me in a daze.

Dumb Lloyd smirking from afar told me, "You can wait for me at the base, Cecile."

Curious I asked, "Where are you going?"

"Just a little errand, while I'm doing that I'll use the Avalon to look for Suzaku. It's hard to find a vice like that young man, especially after yesterdays exploits…" He and General Bartley turned to follow his Highness out of the room.

"Please wait", I suddenly got up the nerve to ask about yesterday, "Were those orders yesterday issued by the prince?" They all stopped in their tracks.

General Bartley turned his head and roared, "Silence! You do not want to be in competent of royalty, do you?"

Prince Schneizel, turning around said, "Those orders were mine, Miss Cecile. I also fired the Hadron. Even in a situation like that, priorities mustn't be forgotten. Besides, if something anomalous happened, we would've still been able to rescue him. That's what I gambled on. He is, after all, Suzkau Kuugurgi, ace pilot of the special core, and Euphie's knight."

"Yes, my Lord. I understand now, and I sorely regret my rudeness. I accept any punishment you decree."

"Nonsense" he broke his gaze from my eyes, slightly looking down, "It's my fault for not protecting my subornments," he turned around starting to walk away," Can you ever, forgive me?"

I was left there, relieved to find my answer, but at the same time giggly and squeamish from when he kissed my hand. Touching the place on my hand where he kissed with my other hand, sighed contently and went back to writing the report, this time staying close to the ground.

*few days later*

"Miss Cecile," Prince Schneizel called. I turned around and he walked up, took my face into his gloved hands and captured my lips with his soft, warm ones. I shyly slid my hands up his chest to his shoulders.

"Your Highness!" I exclaimed after we broke apart.

"Miss Cecile, I loved you from the moment I saw you…" he kissed me once again only with more passion. I wrapped my arms around his neck, my hands feeling his soft, silky blond locks.

A voice kept interrupting saying, "Cecile?"

My eyes blinked and the scene diminished from my eyes. Unfortunately, my mind was brought back to reality by Lloyd calling me. He was suddenly at my office doorway, peeking in at me. "Are you alright?" he asked, curious expression profound on his face. Just then Suzaku came in to my office, standing beside Lloyd.

"Did something happen?" Suzaku looked from Lloyd to me then back to Lloyd.

Lloyd then realizing my expression, smiled, "You were thinking about His Highness, weren't you?"

"Hmmm?" Suzaku looked confused. Lloyd told him the story about me falling when I saw Prince Schneizel

"…personally, I believe, since then, Cecile has developed a crush on him," Lloyd finished. H e turned towards me and said, "Can you run these papers to the Britannia palace, preferably to Prince Schneizel himself?" Lloyd smirked at the blush rising in my cheeks.

Not wanting to seem like a chicken, I said, "Sure, fine", while taking the papers from him, walking out, "See you later."

I took a deep breath as I cranked up my car and drove out of the parking lot, heading to the palace.

*30 min later*

Driving to the gate, I told the guard why I was there, showed my job badge, and he opened the gate, then telling me where I could find Prince Schneizel's office. Once inside the grounds, I parked, got the papers, and ran up to the palace. A guard at the door opened it for me, motioning me inside.

It looked like a dream. The floors, made of marble, sparkled because oh the huge chandelier, hooked high above my head. There large tapestries covering the walls, showing medieval times to the present. I found the elevator, and ironically, it looked like any other I have ever been in. My trembling finger pressed the button next to the number "3" on the elevator wall.

Maybe I should've not took Lloyd's order…wait a minute, snap out of it Cecile! You can do this! He's just a man. Well minus being a second prince of Britannia and Prime Minister. Also being so handsome, gorgeous, charming, charismatic…but I can do this! I clutched the papers tightly to my chest, but relaxed a moment later. A bell rang, to tell that it has arrived at my destination…
