Chapter 7: The Princess Gets Involved

Seiya sat in Princess Kakyu's study, nervous. He had been summoned there this morning and it was rare that when the Princess summoned one that it turned out good.
Princess Kakyu came in a moment later, her face blank that also wasn't a good sign. She sat down carefully, not looking at Seiya.
"Seiya, recently it has come to my attention that you have been letting your problems interfere with your duty," she said simply.
"I've just been having trouble sleeping, Princess," Seiya lied quickly. From the look that she gave him, Seiya wasn't sure she had bought it. It was hard to fool Princess Kakyu.
"That is understandable however, I want you to resolve these problems before you resume your duties," she ordered and Seiya knew that it would be useless to argue with her.

Haruka felt slightly guilty. She had no real interest in the guy standing beside her or any of the others she went out with. Normally, she didn't care to date but for some reason, she just didn't care.
She glanced over at the guy next to her, thinking how he was almost opposite of Seiya. He had light hair, dark eyes, was a little heavy, and was not exactly the brightest bulb in the batch. She sighed, hoping Seiya was as unhappy as she was.
