"She tries to talk me into playing dress up. She's always flirting with the castle guards."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------
Rianet was a very beautiful girl her long black hair shone. But that's not what had Endymion's attention this time. The fact was she was ignoring him now to talk to her friend. The lovely Princess Serenity of another town across the boarder, best friends with Rianet. Serenity had long blond hair always in a braid, over her shoulder. Rianet had a similar plait, and when having to talk to him, she insisted on playing dress up. Endymion would use the palace's trophy and pretend he was a lion to scare them., she was joining Rianet in flirting with the guards. And Endymion would watch them together. His friend Jadeite was rather mistaken in his analysis, he believed he liked one of those scrawny flirty twerps.

"I think you really sort of like her, 'fess up."
"I'd like her better if she'd loose at cards. Four sevens and a ten."
"I think I won again."
"Every time she's won."
"This I my idea."
"This isn't my idea."
"Of fun."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------
Rianet and Serenity played cards with them. Rianet always won, and that's when they started to become better friends. Endymion finally admitted that Rianet was good at something better then him. Jadeite teased him that Rianet's alluring violet eyes captured him when he saw her in her purple fashion dress with the sash coming down to a v at her waist. Rianet always had the same ruby necklace on that pulled out the colors of her dress nicely. Jadeite and Serenity got along fine, since the beginning. So Endymion teased him back that Serenity had pulled him to her side when she only glanced at him while wearing her yellow summer dress and sparkling blue eyes. While they won at cards, neither of them could find any fun in loosing to a girl.

"We need a royal wedding, I'd love to be invited. At least we'll get a holiday to rest our plows and axes."
"Some day these two will marry."
"Two lands will be united. And will some luck their marriage will result in lower taxes."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------
Every summer after that Endymion got along better with both of them. Some days though he was stuck alone with Serenity while Jadeite was home and Rianet was with her father, talking about something.
Then other days Serenity and Rianet both seemed to disappear and he and Jadeite were together. Yet other days, days that seemed plotted and calculated on all accounts Endymion and Rianet were together.
Serenity one day while braiding Rianet's hair mused. "I don't see why you hated Endymion, he's positively charming."
Rianet countered. "Then why is when you got sent to Lord Malachite's stable for a week you came back absolutely hating him? He seemed quite charming to me." Rianet was completely innocent, wasn't she?
"But he was a punk at that time, you didn't know him when he was younger, he had to grow to become a better person and somebody I could respect and like in the end."
"Exactly." Rianet smiled. Serenity laughed and pushed her off the chair she was sitting on.
That time when they left, Rianet threw a tomato at an unsuspecting Endymion, and it hit him square in the chest, splattering his face. Queen Babbet laughed, she was wondering when Rianet would get him back.
