A/N: Ignore my grammar mistake and enjoy.
In the Kingdom of Utopia there was a king and queen that rule the kingdom, this take place in the 22nd century where the world has gone to a modern era where everything is control mostly by computer letting the human have their job done easier. As you all already know the modern the weapons, the greedily the human are. They will try to overpower any kingdom that is fewer techs than them which set danger to the world.
Battle happen everywhere no matter where you are, the pace that used to be in peace has once again has to experience the terror of being killed by the enemy.
Only few of the kingdoms didn't take part in this war in exchange they must give and coöperate for those who asks for their help and in return their country will be left untouched. This is the same as the kingdom turn to slave for those bloody monsters but for the sake of peace for the country the ruler will do anything even if their child has to be sacrifice.
Utopia is one of those save kingdom; in order for their country to be protected they decide to exchange their eldest son the heir for the kingdom in order for the peace which sent disapproval from their subject. Since every one of the people love the prince because of his kind heart and humbleness. Even so they can't do anything to help one the king has officially announce this.
It is heartbreak to hear that their eldest son Watase Aoba will become a sacrifice for the greater good of the kingdom.
Is it worth it?
Is this really necessary?
At the day of the announcement the prince sit silently on the cushion chair as he stare at his reflection on the mirror, his can see the dark lines that form around his eyes due to lack of sleep and even his body is thinner than usual.
Slowly he raises his hand to touch his skin to feel his own bone, how long has it been since he last eaten. The only thing that keep him survive is the tea that his maid serve him every morning every time he woke up, it wasn't like he is trying to kill himself by starving it is simply just because of stress hearing he is engaged to a stranger making him to lost his appetite. There are times his parents force him to eat real solid food but end up making him throw it all out a few seconds after eaten all of it.
Seeing that he can't eat a normal food for a while they have given up on giving him proper meal so the maid start serving him light food that is easy to digest such as soup which he secretly throw up.
His body has gone weaker day by day which make him wonder if he can survive for the day of the wedding.
"Aoba san." One of his maid call.
"Come in Hina." Aoba give her permission.
Not long after that she quickly walk in after closing the door to check her dear childhood friend, her face shows worried as she check every detail of his face. Seeing how skinny and pale he is almost make her faint.
"Aoba san, are you alright? Please don't tell me you didn't eat or sleep today."
He nods his head as he look down at his knee.
"What should I do Hina? I feel like a dead person every time I remember my own parents tell me that engage me to someone I don't know. What worst is they make me married to a family of military which means I will be living in a country that is still in war. I will never get to live in my normal life ever again."
Hina give her concern to her friend by patting his shoulder.
"I'm sorry to hear this Aoba."
She wrap her arms around his neck and give a kiss on his forehead, ever since they are young she always think Aoba as her precious little brother that she must protect but it seems that the fate is cruel. Since this involve bond between kingdoms she can't do anything to help him.
"How is your sister taking this news?" Hina asks.
"I don't know, I rarely step out from this room after that day." He tells as he holds her hand tightly. "If I didn't do this my little sister will have to take my place wouldn't she?"
"Aoba, if only I could help."
"Hina . . ."
They both hold each other hands not letting go so they can comfort each other from this fate that can't be change. It was then at the moment Bizon enter without knocking first which makes Hina gives a long sighs as she turn to look at her . . . boyfriend.
"Can you knock?" She asks.
"What? Aoba doesn't seem angry about it." He says calmly as he cross his hand. "Anyway it seems like you guys don't seem to be in a mood to be disturbed by my knocking."
"Good morning Bizon." Aoba try to smile but it fails miserably which makes the two other people inside the room giving him worried look.
"If I was your father I would have taken better care of you."
"It's alright." Aoba said closing his eyes for a while. "My father is too busy to worry about me since the day for my marriage is only three days left."
"Three days." The white hair repeats those two words.
Hina clap her hand loudly wanting to get rid of this bad mood inside the room.
"My dear little brother (not actually related), let spent these three days of freedom as fun as possible. Okay?" She says cheerfully trying to cheer him up.
"Hina is right? You might as well spend as much time a possible before you get ship off to a kingdom full of military." He tries to jokes but then receive an elbow at his waist making him hiss in pain.
"O-okay." Aoba obeys knowing these two will not take 'no' as an answer. "What should we do first?"
It was then Bizon and Hina pull him toward the bed before pushing him on it, they take off their shoes before joining him at each side of the bed. "Sleep." They say in unison before trapping the prince in their arms not letting him to get away. If they want to have much fun it is better they collect enough energy for it even if they have to force their prince to sleep.
Aoba chuckles to see their caring behavior before joining them into the peaceful sleep.
