The priest's son had no such problems however. His name was Elios, and he
already had silver hair, but it was tinged with blue. It had been that way
for almost two years, and he was just about to turn twenty when his blue
eyes blinked, and then opened with a deep golden shade instead. Elios had
absolutely no problems finding love, but the question was that of keeping
it, and not finding it. Since he was thirteen, he'd had too many
sweethearts to count. Now, his eye settled upon one girl in particular,
and her name was Leiah. He and Leiah had been going out for a few months
now, and he was thinking about her as he walked down the deserted hallway
to his parents' office. "We can't just tell Elios to stop dating her."
That piqued his interest as he scowled about the comment. "My friend
Serenity says that her daughter is declining all offers from the suitors
because none of them are interested in being in love with her, nor she with
them. Sure, the princes like her, but none want to be that close to her."
"So you're saying that we should give him a nudge?" Elios gave up his hiding place and angrily slammed the door behind him. "Do not meddle in my personal affairs, I am no child!" His mother turned, and her brows shot up. "So good of you to join us, but your intrusion shall be short lived. My dear friend Serenity has a daughter in distress, and you will see if you can help her." At first, he just gave her a quizzical look, but then caught on to her meaning. "You want me to court someone I have never even met! I cannot do that, especially since I like Leiah." The last part fell on deaf ears as he fell through a portal to the surface of the Earth. In front of him was a set of double doors, and he rang the doorbell, trying to banish the thoughts of yelling at his parents. "How may I help you? You are here to see the princess I presume?" He nodded and entered the giant palace. I will get my mother for this! There is no way that I will fall for the princess. "You must be here for the ball, please come this way." She had silver hair with bluish streaks in it, and strange garnet colored eyes. "Who are you?" He asked intrigued, as he had immediately become attracted to her.
Selenity looked at him incredulously. "Who are you?" He returned her look. "Did I not ask you?" Something was off about this, and they both knew it. "Hmm, and I thought that you were a suitor, my name is Princess Selenity." His eyes widened for just a second, then he said; "I am Priest Elios, or just Elios if you prefer, and this is going to sound stupid, but my mother made me come here." It sounded like their mothers could switch places, and nothing would change. "I see, well, I personally do not want to have to deal with choosing a husband, so to humor my mother, I can help you out if you need it." Real smooth Selenity. "Thanks for the offer." They entered the ball, and for some reason, Elios said; "How about you give me a chance?" Selenity shook her head. "How about you just leave me alone?" He sighed. "Fair enough." Looking a bit miffed, the princess left, and started arguing with someone in Lunarian, who was likely, her mother. Elios walked off, and soon, there were girls talking about him. "Naturally." He muttered and looked at the singer. She had blonde hair, and sky blue eyes; she was also talented. Her voice was a mixture of classical, pop, and opera, all blended into an awesome tune with heavy bass and woodwinds. Deciding that it was impossible to keep his vow, Elios talked to the singer on her break, and they arranged something. "Too bad you like the princess, it is sweet of you to do this for her."
"Hey, I have dated too many girls to not look to the future; if it doesn't work, you will be the first to know." With that, she walked off and he went back to his room.
"So you're saying that we should give him a nudge?" Elios gave up his hiding place and angrily slammed the door behind him. "Do not meddle in my personal affairs, I am no child!"
