"Adrien..."
Marinette said as she walked out of the Queen's room. The Prince was talking to one of the two guards posted at the door.
Marinette only caught parts of their conversation before it was interrupted by her presences.
"Marinette?"
The Prince questioned not knowing why Marinette was in his mother's room. The last time he saw Marinette was when he left his study for her and Alya to form a friendship. Which was hours ago.
"My mother insisted that her majesty needed a biscuit and a scone. I offered to deliver it."
Prince Adrien walked with Marinette as she headed back to the kitchen but he stopped her a wanted her to look out of a window. A window that looked down to the castle's courtyard.
"Beautiful."
Marinette stated as she laid eyes on the blossoms. The season was spring and flowers were beautiful. Such a sight made Marinette forget about the duel. The sight even made Prince Adrien forgot about his parents slowly drifting apart.
"The buds look better close up."
Prince Adrien said hinting to the fact that he wanted to put off all other lessons or duties of a Prince to take Marinette on a walk.
"I am sure they do."
Marinette said entranced by the shades of pink that decorated bushes and trees. When the spring breeze blew petals would be scattered into the breeze.
"Maybe, I should be more direct?"
"On what?"
Marinette asked as looked at him clueless on what he wanted. Prince Adrien swallowed the air in his throat. He was nervous. He didn't understand why. He was just asking a friend to go on a walk. Nothing more.
"Would you like to go on a walk with me?"
Prince Adrien asked. Marinette was surprised that he asked her on a date. Was he trying to court her?
"Of course as friends." He added.
"Of course as friends."
Marinette repeated not bothering to hide the sarcastic tone of her voice. Prince Adrien wondered if Marinette had feelings for him but realize that was impossible since she didn't show any affection for him besides friendship.
