Short Chapter this Time around, important plot and whatnot
Anna now dragging Darius back to the ballroom as if she literally caught him, they were just outside.
"Wow, I found a girl, mom would be proud" thinking to himself. "Too bad mom might never find out" hitting him again that he might be stuck there.
"Darius?"
*Snaps out of his daze*"What?"
"You were kind of zoning out there"
"Sorry, I was just thinking"
"About what?"
"That maybe try not to make it sound too serious right off the bat to your sister, she might freak out if it looked like we were trying to elope" not fond of sharing what he zones about, he had a back-up plan in the event she did ask
"Relax, she'll be totally fine with it"
Walking up to her sister who was stood beside a throne placed in the ballroom.
"Elsa? This is Captain Darius" She was excited for him to meet her sister.
"Good evening your majesty, congratulations on the coronation" He thought to speak up
"Thank you Captain" She was still in good spirits.
"Elsa the reason I wanted you to meet him was to ask for your permission"
"Permission for what?"
"Ahem" he cleared his throat, "Your majesty, I would like permission to court your sister"
"Ah, well captain, um" she turned to face her sister "Anna, who is this?"
"This is Darius, I met him this morning, he's from Tekas"
He corrected her "Texas",
"Texas, sorry, him and I made a real connection"
"Anna if you've known him for a day isn't it a bit early to be talking about courtship?"
"Excuse me, Queen Elsa, but we aren't doing anything to forward, nothing is set in stone as of yet, I simply wish to engage in certain social activities with her, that may or may not, end in marriage"
"Marriage!?"
"But it may not come to that!" Anna interjected, "Elsa" she brought her sister aside to speak one-on-one, "I really like him, I think he might be, you know, THE One"
"Anna, you haven't known him long enough to begin talking about this kind of thing, maybe if you'd known him longer, but it's too soon"
They both returned to Darius.
"I'm sorry Captain, but my answer is no"
"Right, I apologize, I think I will be going" Cutting his losses, he decided to look for a place to stay for the night. "Good night Anna, your majesty" Placed his officer's hat and left for the night. Anna, with a dejected face on, left the room. Upon exiting the gates of the castle walls, let out a long sigh, "Well, alright then".
