Jasmine's Feelings

Lief's POV

I was walking through the palace looking for my best friend/crush Jasmine. I had a very long day filled with meetings and papers waiting for me to sign them. I wanted to make sure Jasmine was happy living here in the palace instead of living in the Forests of Silence where she grew up as a child there. I had already checked the gardens, kitchen, and the Messenger Birds room for her so I was going to check her room to see if she was in there. I had finally reached door to her room and knocked on her door softly. "Who is it?" She called through the door. "It is me, Jasmine. Can I come in the room?" I answered her quietly with it being so late at night. "Hey, Lief. I was just about to go to bed, but you can come in here." I opened the door and went in the room. "I do not wish to bother you at all. I just wanted to see you, Jasmine." I tell her calmly and quietly. I noticed that she seemed bother by something else at the moment. She had her head in her hands not looking at me. "Is there something wrong with you or is there someone bugging you all the time, Jasmine?" I asked her quietly so I did not upset her any more than she already was upset. "I have a terrible headache today is all, Lief." She told me, but I knew there was more to it then she was letting on. "You can tell me anything, Jasmine." I tell her kindly and quietly. "Jinx keeps on telling me that you have chosen to marry a Toran girl. I have to keep telling him that is not true, but he will not believe me about it, Lief." She tells me while releasing some of her hidden anger about it. I went up to her and put my arm around her trying to comfort her. "I will speak to Jinx about bothering you. You should get some sleep to help your headache, Jasmine." I tell her while tucking the covers around her. "Good night, Lief." She says to me while drifting off to sleep. "Good night, Jasmine." I tell her before leaving her room.
