A/N* sorry again that this chapter took awhile yr9 equals more home and school work but here it is.
Too little to late
Naveen ran through the massive front doors, up the stairs and finally he turned the corner leading to his father's suite the whole time a number of things ran through his mind first was how bad is it, second was oh my gosh I could be king in a few weeks, third was will he even live to the coronation, fourth was how am I gonna tell Tiana it will destroy her to have to leave New Orleans for so long and last was oh my gosh I hope he's ok. Without even noticing Naveen had burst through his father's doors and was staring at a shocked Kabir who was staring wide-eyed at Naveen.
"Son, is everything okay you gave me quite a scare." Kabir said still slightly shaken.
"Is it true..." Naveen mumbled.
"Oh, speak up boy." Kabir said not liking what he thought he'd heard.
"IS IT TRUE?!" Naveen shouted scaring Kabir to death.
"I...I don't know what your talking about child."
"You do know Father, You know exactly what I am saying and I am not a child." Naveen reminded him still angry his father was trying to lie right to his face.
"Very well, your right. I suppose your mother told you..." Kabir asked, Naveen nodded in reply.
"Well she never could keep a secret. Yes, it's true I am severely ill, have been for some time now...Son." Kabir looked at Naveen worried.
"NAVEEN!?" Before Naveen had even noticed his head hit the floor with an almighty thud and then...Darkness.
The royal library.
Tiana was sat in the library reading up on the rich history of Maldonia and it's royal family of which she was now apart of.
"Wow, I never knew Maldonia was this amazing." Tiana tapped when she saw a picture of what appeared to be the royal family on the moors infront of the palace.
"Yes, We are quite an amazing family are we not." Came a strong male voice from behind her, she jumped at the sudden interruption.
"I am sorry I meant not to frighten you princessa, I am Marcus a cousin of your husband yes." When Tiana turned she could instantly tell this was a relative of Naveen not just because of the strong accent but because the jaw line was exactly the same and he had the exact same loving, gentle glow about him.
"Oh not at all, Marcus I was just reading up on your amazing country." She said smiling.
"You mean OUR Country." He said.
Tiana was confused at the statement she wasn't married to him it wasn't their country.
"Oh, forgive me princessa, I mean you have married Naveen so the country is now your twos heritage when my uncle and aunt pass the crown on." He know looked slightly embarrassed.
"Ok, I understand now, yall had confused me their for a minute."
"Again forgive me princessa but your accent it is not from around here no?"
"No, It's not, I'm from New Orleans, Louisiana,and enough of princessa call me Tiana." Tiana said proudly.
"I..."
The young prince was interrupted by a the sudden BANG The library doors swung open and one of the help came running towards Tiana.
"Your highness hurry your husband has collapsed!"
Tiana's mouth fell open and before she knew she had broken into a run following and almost overtaking the young man, it was a while later when she noticed Marcus was following closely behind her the same look of concern on his face.
"In here your highness."
Tiana burst through the doors to see Naveen's limp, pale body lying motionless on the bed doctors rushing all around him Tiana lurched forward.
"NAVEEN, What's wrong with my husband, answer me NOW!"
Just as she was about to reach the bed Marcus got a firm grip around Tiana and pulled her away.
"What are you doing boy, let me go!" Tiana struggled with all her might but was no match to the young man's strentgh a trait that ran in the royal family's blood it would seem.
"Tiana, look at me, I to am concerned but you passing out will not help matters either, calm yourself, and I am no boy I am only three years younger than you." Marcus had such a soothing voice she felt she could not help but to feel calm but then she lost her footing feeling light headed from the commotion she assumed and fell suddenly, feeling Marcus wrap a protective arm around her and pull her into a bridal style lift before placing her down on to a soft couch near by.
"I warned you, do you feel bad, I could fetch another doctor?" Marcus said a look of concern on his face.
"No...no I'm fine just a little worked up is all I'll be fine in a moment, but thankyou." Tiana said truly grateful to the young man.
"Well Naveen would kill me if I let you get injured." Marcus then realising what he'd said closed his mouth and turned around.
"What but he doesn't even know we've met why would he..."
"I...Erm..."
"Marcus, spill, before I make you spill!" Tiana said now looking very angry.
"I...I...fine,iekkk, Naveen I am related to yes, but he also hired me to...protect you, kind of like a personal bodyguard."Marcus blushed a shade of crimson.
"Hm Hm I see and when exactly did my husband do this?" Tiana asked.
"The minute you arrived."
Tiana went red with anger she looked at Marcus before huffing and storming off.
"Tiana,come back."
"DON'T YOU DARE FOLLOW ME MARCUS!"Tiana screamed from down the hall.
Four hours later Naveen's suite.
Naveen felt dizzy still he didn't remember passing out he only remembered what had happened before that and the conversation he'd had with his father.
As Naveen woke up the only face he saw was one he'd hope would be there Tiana's.
"Uhh my head." Naveen growled as he sat up. He felt a small yet firm hand on his chest pushing him down.
"Lay down you darn fool yall hurt yourself again." Tiana kissed him on the forehead.
"Now, what could have possibly happened that could have made you, my man pass out and crack that solid head of yours open."
"That, would explain the headache."Naveen smiled.
"Yep, it sure would sugar you took quite a knock honey the doc didn't know what to do you lucky your still alive." she now had tears in her eyes at the thought of losing her husband.
"Hey, don't cry it will take alot more than a bump to the head to drag me away from my sweet little frog."
Tiana giggled slightly.
"Oh, and while I'm here I met your cousin Marcus in the library today, he'd make a mighty fine bodyguard."
"Yes he would I made a great choice don't i...ahhhh."
"Didn't think I'd find out did yall, well I did."
"Are, you...mad?"
Tiana sighed. "No not mad, it was a sweet thought sugar but next time try runnin it by me ok."
"Of course my love it won't happen again anything I now do you will have input on."
"Promise?"
"I you should go I will explain everything later I promise."
With that Tiana kissed and hugged Naveen and headed for the door. She was worried for her husband, they were meant to go for a drive around Maldonia tomorrow but with his head cracked like a boiled egg it didn't look like they would be going, to take her mind of the stress she decided to go back to the library as she was feeling whoozy and felt that if she sat down she'd feel better than all of a sudden her dizziness got worse and her head hit the ground with a mighty THUD the last thing she remembers is Marcus running towards her.
"Tiana can you here me, keep your eyes open, keep your eyes open..." Then darkness.
