Casanova, Casanova the Hedgehog, The only legitimate heir to Scourge the Hedgehog, King of Anti-Mobius. That's right Prince Cassy. I hate being royalty. All this bowing and ordering people around? It just doesn't do anything for me. I was taught about freedom and such from my time on Mobius prime with my uncle, Sonic and my half brother Manik. The only added plus with being a prince is that someday I'll be king and that I'll be able to stop my father's wrongdoing. For now however I am nothing if my father does approve of meetings with me (which does not happen often) we are never alone. We are not father and son we are only king and prince, crown prince. As soon as I come of age I'll be married to someone, I don't know and forced to rule a kingdom that hates my father and most likely me as well. Sigh, such is life of Royalty.
"Cas, Cassy? Casanova?" I look up.
"Manik?" I ask the figure standing outside my window.
"What can't recognize me highness?" He says as I open the window and shut my bedroom door.
"Manik!" I rush up and hug him. He laughs.
"So much for all that royal etiquette huh?"
"Who cares, I'm glad to see you." I say. He nods.
"I brought someone else with me." He says as another figure appears in the window. There stands a black and sky blue hedgehog.
"Invidia!" I hug her.
"You've grown a bit from our last meeting Cassy." She says her oceanic eyes twinkling.
"And you've grown even lovelier." I said kissing her cheek. She blushed. "So why are you two here?" I asked Manik.
"We wanted to see you again Cassy and booking an appointment takes too long." He replied. "Besides I know how much you missed Invidia, she still has a picture of you in her room."
"I do not!" She said her face turning dark red.
"Don't worry 'vidia I don't mind if you do. Here." I said passing her a locket. "I had this made for you." She smiled as she opened it. Our song started to play. "We'll live together knowing forever, we did it all for the glory of love." I sang softy to her.
"Cassy...Thank you." She told me as I helped her fasten it on. Manik smiled.
"So when are you two going to make it official?" He asked.
"Manik...you know we can't."
"Look get married become king divorce from that princess you have to marry and bingo you can marry Invidia."
"Everything's so simple when you explain it Manik." I told him shaking my head. Invidia nodded.
"Manik you know that can't happen. No matter how much we'd like it to."
"I wish you were on Mobius prime the laws there are a lot easier to understand." Manik sighed. I nodded after he gave up singing Manik had become a lawyer.
"Look it was great to see you both again but the guards will be making their rounds soon and I don't want you getting in trouble. Manik nodded and climbed down from the window. I hugged Invidia.
"Promise to visit okay?" She asked I nodded. Suddenly I felt her lips press against mine. I deepened it a little then broke the kiss, not wanting too but she needed to get out.
"When you miss me open the locket okay?" She nodded and climbed down to the courtyard below. When she was safely down, I closed the window and fell back onto my bed. Placing my fingertips on my lips, I could still feel her. I smiled. "Invidia..." I breathed then got up and got ready for bed.
