The date
Ans had just awoken early that day (10 am) when he heard what appeared to be his best friend.
- Kristaaaa!
When the blond girl, with very messy hair tied up in a left side braid turned, she received his best friend with a strong hug, maybe too strong.
-Ans my pal- she said while choking the poor young man.
-Krista…I…Can´t….
With that she remembered her own strength compared with her friend´s one.
-Oh! Yeah, sorry, it slips from me sometimes, that you are…
-Kind of delicate?-Asked Ans, stroking his now numbs muscles.
-Yeah, and soft, weak, thin…
-OK, I get it, I´ll start going to the training room tomorrow- Promised Ans. Again.
-Like you said last week?- asked Krista, having the memory she has and knowing Ans too well as to know the results of his statement.
-Common- Said Ans, pouting- I actually went last week.
-Yes, you are right. It was the same day Elian discovered all his white chocolate from his trip to Russia went missing, wasn´t it?- Asked Krista, knowing very well why Ans had decided to start his exercises that day and not going back the rest of the week.
-A very strange coincidence what happened that day, but well, some things stay just a mystery- Said Ans getting nervous that he had been discovered.
-Of course…A mystery, ANS- Both, the blonde woman and the red haired man look in the direction the voice came, to face a tall light blond man entering the living room.
-Well, good to see you are already awake- Said Elian to his brother. Geez, that boy slept a lot, but when he turned to the blond ice harvester, he found himself at a lost and misplace of words.
-Krista! Eh…Good Morning, Did you slept well? I mean, how are you finding yourself this day? Ugh, sorry, I sound like I`m talking to a minister…Not like you are not as important…Or deserving of such talk…It´s just, well we can talk like you…I MEAN! Like all of us normally do… When we are alone…Alone like the three of us…Or the two of us…You know…I mean the times we have been walking and talking or just talking…just talking it`s nice… when we do talk…you know…
-I`m fine, Elian. How are you? - Asked Krista to stop the awkwardness of the moment.
-Fine…-And more awkwardness followed.
Ans, who wanted to know what his older brother was doing out of his office (or cave as Ans best knew it) asked…
-So, any plans for today outside your fortress?
-My OFFICE will be yours for today; I think you can handle some papers that need your signature. This is going to be your first princely duty work- Informed Elian surprising his brother.
-Wow! Really?- asked Ans very proud Elian was considering him ready for the task.
-Well of course, you are more than ready.
Though Ans had never been too excited about staying in an office the whole day with a bunch of papers, he was quite decided on making his brother see that he could trust him the kingdom any time he needed, although Elian had it very well managed.
-Perfect, I´ll get going, see you guys- But he needed to ask…
-Don´t I need some instructions, or…
-There is nothing I hadn´t teach you or practiced with you before, don´t worry, they are more afraid of you than you are of them, everything will be fine- Said Elian smiling to his brother to ease his nerves.
-Ha Ha, very funny, Bye Krista- Said Ans exiting the room to have his "King for a day" practice. Who knows when he would need it.
And there they were, even after practicing all night how he was going to ask this, the question was as hard to say as the day he first though about asking it…
-Well, I should get going, this ice is not going to sell itself- But how much Krista wished that was possible, harvesting ice was great, she just loved it, but when it came to sell it and stating the price with those merchants, Man! She hated it. She would have to do miracles to get them to agree with her price, harvesting was awesome but it was also hard, VERY hard.
She was preparing to go when…
-Can I go with you?!- Elian slapped face himself mentally, not exactly the most romantically date asking but he add…
-Please?- Yes Elian, real smooth, she is probably going to say-
-Ok, let´s get going- said Krista cutting his train of thought.
-Thanks!- said Elian walking behind Krista.
-What a weird question?- Krista asked herself, the King wanting to go ice selling, now Elian always went to spend some time with the townspeople once in a while, but to go with her to some working activity was pretty odd and though Krista was kind of grateful he had asked, she was also nervous, Really nervous and the weirdness had just started.
