It was another beautiful morning in the Spades kingdom. A perfect day to eat breakfast outside Arthur thought as he prepared the breakfast setup in the garden. The Prince had requested it for his date with a young maiden he had met in the capitol yesterday.
He had claimed that she was the one. His true love. However Arthur knew better. As soon as he discovered one thing he didn't like about her he would dump her. He did this every week. Sometimes he wondered why the Prince even bothered.
He had just set everything up when he heard Alfred finish making one of his cheesy jokes and the lady of the week giggling. Arthur quickly made sure he was presentable before standing by the ladies chair.
Arthur didn't bother listening. He knew the routine. Pull out their chairs, serve them a piece of cake, pour the tea and handle their every need.
"I'm glad you could make it Ms. Whelston."
"Please call me Sophia. Or Sophie if you prefer." Sophia said smiling shyly. Arthur felt like rolling his eyes. Never heard that line before. It was sooo original.
Alfred chuckled. "Alright Sophie. I'm glad you could make it."
Sophie giggled. "How could I not? Missing a date with the Prince is like a starving man denying food. It's impossible."
No it wasn't. Food is necessary for survival. A fun date with the Prince wasn't.
"Awe I'm nothing special." Alfred said smiling.
You're just the future king of Spades. Nope, nothing special about you.
"Yes you are! You're sweet, kind and brave!"
And a Prince with a huge fortune. That certainly has nothing to do with how special he was.
"Stop you're making me blush."
Sophie giggled. Arthur served her a big piece of cake that she would only eat half of. Claiming that she couldn't eat an entire piece of cake. Yeah right. She just did. The cake was big enough to be two slices.
They continued with their polite conversation until they got to her sob story. She and her family were barely able to make it by and she had to do horrendous things just for one measly meal and blah blah blah. They always played the sympathy card.
And as usual Alfred was trying to comfort her. After their date he sent her home and promised to meet up with her soon. Of course this was a lie. He had no intention of contacting her ever again.
"What was wrong with her this time?" Arthur asked cutting him another slice of cake.
"Her teeth were too perfect." Alfred said sighing.
Arthur raised a brow. "How could someone's teeth be too perfect?"
"I don't know they just are." He said taking a bite.
He rolled his eyes. "Whatever you say your majesty."
Alfred pouted. "You're such a meanie."
"And you're an idiot. Yet somehow your our future king." Arthur said as he walked away.
Alfred stuck his tongue out at him and continued to eat.
