In this story they are all 14 but Stella is 16. I do not own winx club.
King Erendor was very busy at this time of day. He usually was busy dealing with complaints from the people of Eraklyon and the immigrants. Although, this particular business was special. It also had importance to it. Prince Sky was to be the next heir to the throne. If he was to take Erendor's place someday, he needed a woman to share it with.
Commonly, arranged marriages were done in royal families before birth or after. A few royal families refuse arranged marriages or take that as an option. In Erendor's case, this arrangement of marriages has been passed down from generation to generation. The child never is happy at first, but they learn to love the person he or she marries.
Prince Sky was in his room staring at the ceiling before his sister Princess Layla entered. The prince sighed deeply while his sister came inside.
"Dad's working on it," Layla smirked.
"On what? Complaints from the town? He's always doing that," Sky pointed out.
"No, arranging your marriage."
"You have got to be kidding. I'm not even fifteen yet!"
"So, you're future king."
"So, there are kings who never marry. I don't care if I marry or not, I just want to live my stupid life."
"I'm sure she won't be ugly or anything."
"If the girl my dad chooses is a princess, then he can just forget me purposing to her!"
"Why Sky? Every guy wants to marry a Princess."
"Princesses are so... annoying. They're spoiled and selfish."
"You're spoiled and selfish."
"At least I don't show it! If I find a girl to marry, it's gonna be one of the noble women. They're easier to talk to than Princess Do-What-I-Want."
"Can you trust Dad at least?"
"Fine, but you owe me."
Sky really didn't mean that, he wanted to never marry at all if he was going to be forced. It wasn't like he didn't want to marry a girl; he just wanted to marry a girl of his choice. Sky decided to go on for a little hunting spree to get the whole marriage thing off his mind. If Erendor was going to make his son marry a girl, then he would just say he was in love with someone else. No big deal.
Sky hunted in the woods near his palace with his bow-and-arrow. He smirked when he saw a deer nearby. He shot it straight and got the deer. Hunting was a good way for Sky to feed his family while enjoying himself. Nothing could ruin his day on a day of hunting. Sky ran through the woods to look for more game.
Soon, when Sky was aiming his target, he saw a figure appear in front of his prey.
"What the..." Sky jumped before hearing a scream from a young girl. He ran to where his target was supposed to be, but now disappeared by the scream. There, he saw a young girl who needed a bath. She caught her foot in a hole. Sky burst out laughing.
The girl looked up at Sky and gasped. He just kept on laughing while trying to get the foot out of the hole.
"Don't! I can handle this!" The girl shouted.
"You sure handled it when you slipped into that hole," Sky replied while rolling his eyes, still laughing. "So, what brings you to this forest besides scaring my prey?"
"Your prey? That was to be my lunch until I slipped!"
"What were you going to do? Run and chase."
"I don't have a bow-and-arrow like you and I... don't know how to hunt."
"That explains a lot. Don't be embarrassed. I can teach you if you tell me your name."
"Blair, but you can call me Bloom." (Sorry but I thought it would be cool if her name was Blair.)
"Princess Bloom? Great, I find a princess in my forest. I thought you lived in Sparx."
"I do and how did you know I was a princess?"
"One, you can't hunt two, your name is Bloom and three, you have two left feet," Sky teased before Bloom was about to burst her foot out of that hole to get the prince and fell.
"Ah, oh SHOOT!"
"I think you sprained it. Here, let me help you," Sky offered before slowly removing Bloom's foot out with care.
"I don't need..."
"Don't be a princess and suck it up," Sky interrupted before Bloom shot the boy a glare. "Seriously, this is why I never go to Balls. Princesses are so melodramatic."
"I AM NOT MELODRAMATIC!"
"Uh, your highness, yes you are," Sky grinned before helping the girl up. "You're making a big deal out of me getting your poor ankle out of the muddy hole and you don't know how to do it yourself."
"You're lucky you're not in Sparx or I'd have you arrested."
"For helping a princess," Sky mocked sarcastically. "Let me take you to my place. I'm sure my servants can fix that poor ankle of yours."
Bloom then made bug-eyes. She looked at Sky in complete shock, "servants?"
"Prince Sky at your service. At least you're not like Princess Diaspero; she made me carry her bridal style when she broke her leg."
"Bit me!"
