indubitable
This was supposed to be much, much longer, but I lost my bunny halfway.

indubitable
(adj.) Too apparent to be doubted; Unquestionable.
That Astelle A Daimonia Eucalystia Aram was irrevocably, completely, totally in love with Hoshina Airi was indubitable.
No one could doubt that he was utterly besotted with the girl and no one could say she didn't love him just as much.
There was, however, a fair amount of people who would say that she was an artless chit who knew no manners.
… But behind, always behind, always always behind, Aram's back.
And far, far away from Aram's hearing.
There was something dreadfully possessive about how he treated Airi for all his solemnity and his frankness. There was something frightening about attempting to insult Airi remotely near him.
Rei could report, verbatim, how the young prince had ran, frantically looking for Airi when he discovered that she might have been brought over, questioning guards in his straightforward naïveté, describing her in ways that just reeked of closeness.
Really, the only word to describe it was 'reeked'.
'Guard! Did you see a girl come this way? She must still be inside the castle. A selfish commoner, a girl much older than I and surprisingly strong. She likes to talk. Likes 'dramas', and has unexpectedly large breasts.'
He cared for her deeply though, despite all the faults he could parrot to a stranger with a straight face. He cared for her, much more than would be expected of a young prince.
The Queen would cackle privately, about how Airi could treat her beloved son as if he were normal.
Tch, she thought. As if her dear Aram would be normal.
But normal or not, Aram needed someone who could treat him like Aram; not just as royalty, not just as the prince, but as the person 'Aram'.
Airi did that, forcing him to clean her bathroom, learn how to go shopping... She taught him that life didn't always bend to his wishes. She taught him that he wasn't as high-and-mighty as he thought. She showed him she still supported him, no matter what the obstacles in her way. She showed him she loved him and would do so much for him.
Aram and Airi were together, no matter what, because they were fated, somehow. That much was indubitable.
They were together, no matter what, because they loved.
