I hear the faint sound of a piano. I sit up in my king sized bed even though I'm merely a prince, a stand-in prince. I curiously walk outside the Palace. It's lightly raining and I get a little moist but I don't care. The light song is still filling the air and I need to find it. I take a walk down the steps near the front of the courtyard. I walk around and I see the flower shop. It looks ominous without it's flowers fore it was winter. I trudge on from the flower shop, Amber and Illuminata are still asleep. It's only early dawn and the others like to sleep in. That's why I followed the song. It was too early for anyone to be up other than I. I step onto the ramp and I listen again.

The song is coming from farther up the ramp. I yawn and wonder who else would be up this early. As prince I always needed to be up at six o'clock sharp. I lightly walk up the ramp and follow the song. I get to the end of the ramp and look around. I see meg's house and the song is coming from there. I should of guessed my girlfriend would be the one making music since she is the towns musician. I hear the music stop and I hear shouting from inside.

"No! That isn't it. How about…" I hear playing again and it's a little fast paced but she stops again. "That isn't it either, grrr." I hear from inside. I chuckle to myself.

"Meg, what in the world are you up to." I ask myself before walking inside. When I get inside, I notice that it's very bright, compared to outside. Meg is still focusing and doesn't notice me yet. She starts to play again but stops, frustrated.

"Gaahhhhh. This is so stupid." She says and throws her pencil away. Unfortunately, I was in the way of the pencil.

"Ow!" I yell and Meg turns around towards me.

"Storm?"

"Yeah it's me and dang you can throw Meg. Yesh does playing all that music playing give you super strength? Gods!"

"Oh Storm I'm so sorry; I didn't mean to." She says running over to me.

"Hey, I'm alright."

"Okay. Then What The Heck Are You Doing Here?!"

"I heard music and I followed it here."

"Well you can't just come barging in here!"

"I'm sorry, I'll just go." I say turning to leave.

"You don't have to go!" She yells. But then looks embarrassed. "I mean you don't have to leave, you can stay for a while."

"Okay." I say and I sit down in her wheely chair and spin around.

"Hey! Stop that! You're gonna break it." Meg yells at me.

"Awww."

"Honestly you're so childish sometimes!"

"Love you too." I say smiling. She turns red faced from either anger or embarrassment and she turns around on her piano bench. I instantly feel bad. I hate to make meg feel bad at all in any way, shape or form. I walk over to her and sit on her piano bench next to her. "I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. I didn't mean to make you angry or upset. Can you please forgive me?" Meg is silent for a while and I'm afraid she's gonna break up with me. She is one of the best things about my life and if I lost her; I would be alone.

She's still silent and she hugs me. She starts crying on my shoulder."I didn't want to make you cry meg. I really am sorry." I say but she lifts her head up to face me and shakes her head.

"You didn't make me sad or angry. Your comment caught me by surprise is all."

"How?"

"You understand that you just said 'I love you' to me for the first time, Right?" She asks. Realization dawns on me and I blush furiously.

"I...uh… It's true though. I do love you . Do you not want me to say that? If it's too weird for you I can stop." I say confused. She just shakes her head.

"No I like hearing you say that. It reminds me that you feel just the same about me as I do about you."

"Oh okay….." I notice her music sheet. "What's that….." I say as I reach for the piece of paper but Meg grabs it.

"Sorry, no looking."

"Come on show me!"

"Not gonna happen!" She says and I try to grab it from her. She pulls her hand away and runs away. I chase her all around her house until we're both exhausted.

"Come on meg! Please?"

"No!"

"I'll give you something if you let me see."

"What is it?" Suddenly my pocket feels heavy.

"I can't tell you. You're gonna have to trust me."

"Why should I?"

"Because I'm your boyfriend and we trust each other." I say and she looks into my eyes.

"Okay just don't laugh." She hands me the piece of paper. I read it and realize it's a song, a love song about me.

"Why would I laugh at this? It's the most wonderful thing I've read."

"Really?"

"Really Meg." I say. I read it over and over until meg clears her voice.

"Now what are you gonna give me?" I look at her with a worried expression.

"Ok your turn not to laugh." I reach into my pocket and feel the item in my hand. I close my hand around the object and pull it out, my hand closed."Open your hand and put it out." She does as I instruct and I tell myself no going back. I open my fist and the tiny circle of silver drops into her palm. I look at her.

"What this for?" I smile meekly at her with a glimmer of hope in my eyes and realization dawns on her. She gasps and looks at me. "You want me too..." I walk up to her and get on one knee and take her other hand.

"I want to marry you meg. I just cannot stand being without you any longer. It's starting to literally hurt not being around you all the time. Everytime I see you; my heart fills with joy and happiness. When I say I love you, they aren't just words. They are my feelings. Just please think about it. Please?" She looks at me with tears in her eyes.

"Storm, I love you too. I want to marry you but we haven't even had our first kiss yet…" She says.

"Okay, I undst-" I'm cut off by meg grabbing me the front of my shirt and pulling me into a kiss.

I'm caught off guard by Meg kissing me and I drop the paper and my arms go slack . She pulls away and looks at me, smiling. I'm just staring at her.

"Um… Storm?" She asks snapping her fingers in front of my face. I snap out of it and blush furiously again. She smiles at me. "Are you okay?"

"Yes…" I say still kinda dazed.

"By the way yes."

"Are you trying to copy me?"

"No I mean I accept."

"You accept what Meg?" She looks at me with tears in her eyes again.

"Yes, I'll marry you Storm." I look at her and feel tears in my eyes too. I hug her and say to her.

"You have made me the happiest man in the world Meg. I'll love you forever. No matter what."

"I know you will Storm." She says to me.
