Once upon a time

There was a lonely prince

Who lived in a castle

On a mountain, all alone.

The prince had nobody to talk to

And so, he never spoke.

Day and night, he sat

By the window, watching the sky

And every time he saw

The first star of the evening

He would whisper a silent wish

Into the still night air.

One afternoon, as he gazed out the window

Watching and waiting for the star to appear

A dark figure appeared on the horizon,

Coming straight for the castle.

What was it? The prince could not tell.

He could only sit and watch the figure draw near.

At last, he could see the face of the one

Who had come from so far away:

A…princess? Yes, a princess

With long, dark hair and eyes like the stars at night.

Gently she took his hand

And said, "I am Haruhi. I heard your wish. I've come to be with you."

Now Prince Mori and Princess Haruhi

Sit together at the window every night

And together, they wish for something different…

What could it be, I wonder?

Author's Notes: I'm fascinated by the idea of Mori as the "Lonely Prince" character, and I'm also interested in the idea of Princess rescues Prince. Maybe there's a story here?
