An Idiot of a King
It was a bright and sunny day in the card kingdom; there were four separate boundaries, which are the Heart, Club, Spades, and diamond. They have two rulers the queen and king, but the king in the Spades was named Alfred and his loyal queen Arthur.
One day Queen Arthur was walking around to find his king Alfred, unfortunately he just remembered that he was in a meeting. With a sad sigh he made his way to the jack of spades office. Which was Yao, as Arthur had knocked on Yao's door, he had heard a muffled 'come in' then he had proceeded inside the office.
"Ah, queen, how are things with the troops," the jack asked and smiled.
"Please Yao you don't have to call me by that title and their doing swell…" Arthur had trailed off, "um is when Alfred finished with the meeting?"
Yao sighed as he pulled out a copy of Alfred's schedule, considering the American always lost his own schedule he always had Yao make a copy in case he loses it or 'got destroyed'.
"It appears that the king gets out in about…" Yao looked at the large clock in his office, "3 minutes," Yao set the paper back into its original place.
Arthur nodded and smiled lightly, "thank you Yao," Arthur had turned on his heal and left the Chinese man chuckled as he left.
"Oh what a strange man, right panda?" Yao asked his panda in the corner laying on a large pillow, the panda lightly growled in agreement.
Arthur was dashing through the halls, he always hated being in these hallways, living here for a year now, but he somehow manages to get lost in the castle. Arthur made a stop in front of a wall at the end of the hallway.
"Oh bloody hell," Arthur growled, "I hate this place," Arthur turned around and tried to get to his destination again.
Alfred yawned as the clock hit the exactly 9:00 he had been in this chair ever since he had breakfast, which was only a few hours, but for him it felt like ages. As Alfred rose he said his goodbyes to other kings that are present within the room.
The king of Heart, also known as Ludwig, looks up from his forms and sighed, "It seems like the meeting is about to end,"
Francis the king of diamonds had nodded, "Oui, I must say that someone is getting a little uncomfortable," the Frenchman snickered at Alfred's behavior.
"I'll knock some sense into him," Ivan the king of clubs said lifting his staff up dangerously.
Ludwig groaned, "nein, we don't need that, Alfred?"
Alfred looked up, "hm?" he questioned.
"We all know that you're the new king, but you have to take things more seriously," Ludwig had stated.
"Sorry… I've been thinking about Arthur lately…"
"ohohohohohon" the Frenchman laughed, "sorry Alfred probably not going to happen,"
Alfred tilted his head, "why?"
Francis sighed, "You see Alfred, the mark determines who the king and queen are, oui?" Alfred nodded, "but it rarely happens for the queen and king to be wed, plus they don't need a heir because the mark of the king or queen will be shown on another body, also more like the kings right here aren't with their queens because of the Ivan, his queen is in love with the jack, Ludwig is in love the jack, and me well, my queen is a teenage girl that has a protective brother that doesn't let anybody touch her, the marks only show our place in the kingdom not who we're meant to be with," Alfred's face fell, "you see my friend, it's not meant to be."
The room was quiet until Ludwig had coughed trying to break the long awkward silence, "well I think it's best for the three of us to leave thank you for your hospitality," with that the three kings had gotten up and walked out the room to their stagecoaches to get back the kingdoms.
Alfred just sat there for the longest time, until he heard a knock, Alfred jumped a little from the unexpected noise, "come in," he called. When the door opened he saw Arthur holding a rather large tray with two cups and some snacks.
Alfred got up to help out the smaller male, "um… I thought you would like something to eat," Arthur said with a gentle smile, "and knowing that you probably been too busy to even bother feeding yourself, so I've token the liberty making you lunch or probably the chefs more like it considering Yao had band me from the kitchen," Arthur said with a small pink dust on his cheeks.
Alfred smiled and grabbed the cup, until Arthur had grabbed it out of his hand, "um this is mine, if you want to make a change and drink something that's more appealing, then be my guest," Arthur said. Alfred had smiled, and then it had dropped. "Alfred is there something the matter?" Arthur asked concerned, Alfred shook his head.
"It's nothing Arthur," Alfred replied.
Arthur shook his head, "there is something wrong because you don't call me Arthur, you always call me by that ridiculous nickname," Arthur breathed and placed his hand on top of Alfred's large hand, "now tell me Alfred what is the matter?"
"Is it true that the king and queen can't get married?" Alfred asked.
Arthur bit his lip, "It's not true… there have been some queens and kings that have been married… but all this all of a sudden?"
Alfred bit his cheek, "well, I've been feeling strange…"
Arthur, "Alfred?"
"And those feelings are towards you, whenever you're nearby my heart pounds faster and harder against my chest, and when you're faraway I feel a pain in my chest and doesn't go away unless you're here by me." Alfred stood up and walked up to Arthur, who still sitting on the chair was looking at him with wide eyes, Alfred had grabbed Arthur's hands and kissed on of his hands. "I know I may be an idiot… but I know that you're probably the best thing that had happened to me… so can you be my one and only queen Arthur?" Alfred asked.
Arthur shook his head, and stood up and gave Alfred a loving kiss, "and you'll be my idiot of a king," Arthur smiled happily and gave Alfred a hug, Alfred smiled big and wrapped his arms around the small body.
"Thank you Arthur,"
