Knightly Love

Yuri lounged on Flynn's bed, watching the knight pace back and forth. "I could make another round to Halure… Or I could go to Torim Harbor."

Yuri sighed and sat up. "You could stay in the castle for more than a day. You know actually relaxing. The world isn't going to fall apart if you stay with your friends a little longer Flynn."

"I can't keep still, there's still problems in the world. No barriers means more monster attacks on the cities and towns… Knights that charge people for their protection… I don't know what I want to do Yuri." Flynn looked at his friend, hoping Yuri would answer his question.

"Well well the great Flynn doesn't know what to do. That's new… For all those years I've known you. You always had a plan, what's so different about today?"

"I want to spend more time with Lady Estellese…" Yuri raised an eyebrow, "No. No, not in that way! She was my only friend in the castle for such a long time… I haven't spent a day with her for over a year."

Yuri got off the bed and patted his friend on the shoulder. "You really have to lighten up. You don't have to go save the world if you want to spend sometime with a friend. Just go for it."

"It's not that easy anymore Yuri. You can do what you feel like. I'm a commandant now, spending time with the princess is a little inappropriate."

"And you befriended her while you were a knight?" Yuri walked across the room looking at the various swords on Flynn's wall.

"I have higher expectations placed on me now Yuri." Flynn observed his friend.

"So you can hang with criminal?" Yuri grinned at Flynn. "Speaking of which could you wipe out that small bounty of two-thousand gald off my head please?"

Flynn sighed, "one day I won't be able to bail you out, Yuri." The knight winked, "wait till Lady Estellese hears about everything you've done."

Yuri looked at the knight frightened "Oh please don't go there mighty Flynn. If she learns I tripped Tweedle B again, she'll give me a lecture for sure." He sighed. "I'll see you tomorrow Flynn, don't go running off without me." Yuri opened the door and waved lazily.

"Hahaha," Flynn chuckled, "I'll try not to save the world without you tomorrow."

Yuri walked down the hallway and stopped at Estelle's door. He knocked, "Hey Estelle?" There was no answer; Yuri opened the door. Estelle was busy reading a book on top of her bed. "Hey Estelle, I came in." Yuri stood a few feet from the bed, the princess didn't notice.

Yuri leaned over and grabbed the book from Estelle's grasp. The princess returned to reality and looked surprise at Yuri. "YURI! What are you doing in my room?! Did you even knock?!" She yelled.

Yuri sighed, "I knocked but you didn't answer."

"That's still no reason to barge into someone's room! Yuri, you know how I hate intruding!"

Yuri shrugged and plopped himself into the armchair. "I came by with urgent news regarding your beloved Flynn."

Estelle shot the ex-knight a glare. "Yuri! Flynn and I don't have that type of relationship! Stop teasing me about Flynn! That crush was over a year ago!"

"But Estelle! When we first met, it was all about the heroic Flynn." Yuri got up, "Oh I need to warn Flynn! I must find Flynn! Are you hurt, Flynn? I need you now, Flynn!" Yuri tried to mimic Estelle in his high-pitched voice. Noticing her discomfort he stopped and laughed. "Okay, I'll stop."

"Thank you Yuri." She smiled, "but what's wrong with Flynn?"

"He's bored, and a bored Flynn isn't something pretty. I figure if we can get him a girlfriend he'll stop all this mopping around." Yuri flicked the scabbard off his sword. Ignoring the crashing sound of the vase that he just broke, Yuri waved the sword in the air. "Let me save this place! No, I will go to Halure! No I will go to Danghrest! No, I will save the sea creatures!" Yuri sighed, "he's been like that all day. The guy is bored."

"Yuri, I'm not too sure Flynn wants a girl to worry about…" Estelle looked the other way.

Yuri laughed, "we'll force it on him. Let the guy relax for once. Have any idea of women we could force at him…"

"What about Judith?" Estelle put her book the bookshelf.

"Judy is a little too bold… Imagine the poor knight would force her into full suit of armor. A lady exposed like that is unacceptable. Trust me I have enough lecturing from him about her clothing choice alone." The man leaned on the wall. "Anyone else? We need someone that is innocent, easy-going, strives for good of all and that's cute. Not too many women like that around. Just need someone that will follow him around and would do good deeds with him." Yuri grinned.

Estelle poked Yuri in the shoulder, "I'm not like that anymore! I can make my own decisions now! Get out if you're only going to be teasing me!"

"Okay, I'm out sorry Estelle." Yuri patted her on the head, "I just get a kick out of teasing you." Yuri exited the room and went towards the castle exit.

The next day Yuri woke up to Flynn sitting by his bedside. The Knight just smiled when he noticed his friend stirring. "Hey Yuri, glad to see you can get up! Come on, lazy, you're coming to save the world with me today!"

"Why would I save the world I already saved… You can go save it." Yuri turned in bed, not wanting to wake up.

"Come on, Yuri! I talked to Estelle. And she suggests to take the day off…" The commandant shook Yuri.

"Then you have to promise me we won't be running off to Halure to save the people there." Yuri got up slowly.

Flynn laughed, "I'm not that bad… Or am I?"

"If I told you my honest opinion you wouldn't care anyway." Flynn lifted an eyebrow, "you're an over-righteous drone."

As Yuri predicted his friend ignored the comment, "come on Yuri! Let's go sneaking to the royal quarter!"

The swordsman sighed, "that's your idea of excitement? Going to a place we have access to. Think more dangerous, come on you were good at this stuff when we were younger. Remember young Flynn, it was your idea to trip the knights into the streams!" Yuri chuckled, noticing Flynn's reddening face. "Such a surprise you turned into the commandant; the best example of a knight!"

"Yuri," Flynn shifted. "Estellese mentioned you had something planned for me today?"

"Well we could go to the local tavern. Thought it would be good location for scouting girls."

Flynn gulped, "Scouting girls? Are you not satisfied with Lady Estellese anymore?" The knight looked a little too happy.

'So Flynn does like Estelle, should've known.' Yuri thought to himself. "No, it's for you. Get a girl and you won't be so bored."

"What? I'm bored?" Flynn asked surprised.

"Trust me, I know you inside and out. You're bored." Yuri grinned, "Come on let's go!"

"Yuri! We shouldn't seek out women for the sole purpose of entertainment! You can't just go out looking for true companionship! A woman will come in due time! For now I am contempt in bringing justice forth!"

"Stop the knight act! Come on Flynn!" Yuri grabbed the protesting knight's hand and dragged him to the tavern.

"Yuri, I don't want to be here." The Knight shot Yuri a glare. They were seated at a table in the corner. Yuri was enjoying the sights and sounds of the busy tavern.

"Relax and scope for pretty girls." Yuri looked around, "where's the old man when you need him. He's an expert at finding girls."

"Can we go… Some of the women here are staring at me." Flynn hinted at the three large women winking at them. Their breasts were about to pop out of their tops and their faces covered in heavy makeup. "I'm not comfortable here…"

"Wow, the ladies do like you." Yuri chuckled, "come on there has to be one girl you might be interested in one lady in here."

Flynn looked to the side, "I'm not interested in any girls…" Yuri looked at Flynn, "in here…" Flynn sighed.

Yuri got up, "if you're going to be that stubborn. How about we go find some thugs and beat the living crap out of them!"

Flynn smiled, "the sounds a lot better!"

'One day Yuri, I will be able to tell you. But for now your happiness is more important.' Flynn thought to himself while following Yuri out of the tavern.


Hope you enjoyed it. More to come!
