The morning sun was rising above the forest reaching its beams out toward the castle and the village; waking up the sleeping inhabitants.

The helpers around the castle were getting up and starting their day or work and the close-to-being-finished plans for the wedding. Duke Ted was among them watching as he waited for the delicate Jemmy to awaken from his deep slumber.

"Duke Ted...?" the new captain of Rose's knights knelt in front of him, "There is a message for you..."

"From who? And make it fast..." Ted ran his fingers through red-hair, "I have important things to do."

"It's from the dungeon keep... he's says that the ex-captain is not cooperating. He demands to see his highness Jemmy..."

"Well that is not possible... warn Berkeley that if he does not begin to cooperate his lady will feel for him..." Ted gave a wave of dismissal and watched the knight go. I bet that Rose is up to no good... hmm... I better do something or my plans might be ruined...

"I demand to speak with Prince Jemmy! You can not just fire us without the Prince's approval!" Ex-captain Berkeley Rose shouted from behind the door of his cell, "I also demand to see milady!"

"Shut yer trap!" answered the dungeon keep, "There's no way I can get ye to see the lady... and there ain't no way that Ted's gonna let Jemmy see ye! So shut up already!"

"Grrrrr! I do not belong here! Do you even know who I am you worthless maggot!?" Rose shouted out to him, "I am Captain Berkeley Rose!"

"Of course I know who ye is... but if ye don't shut yer trap than I'd be force to make ye DOG FOOD!" the fat man banged on Berkeley's door.

"Not quite..." a new voice came from outside and Rose moved closer to the door so he could hear, "If anything it would be that tiny waist woman of his..."

"Captain..." the dungeon keep's voice answered him back, "But do ye think it would be a waste of such a pretty lassie?"

"'Tis a shame... unless Rose decides that he will be a good boy until his and his lady sentencing..." the captain knocked on the Berkeley's cell door, "You heard that... so you better listen or else Duke Ted isn't going to play nice with her."

"Grr... Leave Diana out of this! She has nothing to do with any of this bullshit that the duke is trying to pull!" Berkeley banged a fist on the door trying to get his point across, "You two must be blind! Ted is the one up to no good!"

"That's enough out of you! Utter one more word and I will take care of Lady Diana myself..." the captain snickered, "I'll take really good care of her."

Dull nails dug into Rose's palms as he was trying his best not to lose control... that last comment was about to take him over the edge... Anger raged throughout his body as he thought of HIS Diana in the hands of someone else, especially if she was still mad at him. Oh milady... Berkeley slumped to the floor by the door, as things outside of his cell became quiet; I have failed you... just like I have fail dear prince Jemmy... Ted is right, I don't deserve to serve as Captain anymore.

"Remember this is gonna be the biggest heist known to man!" Dee cheered, "Our guilds gonna be famous! Us famous!"

Dee's enthusiasm was spreading like a cold throughout the meeting room, everyone slowly getting affected with the virus of happiness except Drake... He sat alone in the corner of the room half-listening and half in his own depressed thoughts of the one who got away...

JJ... things seem much different now, why is that? What the heck is wrong with me!? Why can't I just get on with my life! It's only been two days since he left and I'm making it seem like it's been forever, well maybe cause it feels like forever.

"Shut up and listen!" Smith yelled, "Remember this is only going to work if you play your cards right!"

"Don't you mean play your 'parts' right?" Marty joked and was soon smacked for it.

"Don't get smart... Everyone of you has an assigned part! If you mess it up then we're all screwed... so don't mess up." The boss turned to face Dee, "And that mostly means you Laytner... don't do any funny stuff until we've got our fair stash!"

Dee lazily saluted, "Yes... I promise... no funny stuff until after we've got our fair share!"

"Now everyone gets the plan? Right Drake...?"

What are you doing now JJ? Are you wandering around your rose garden? Studying all of your high-class novels and getting lectures from your tutors? I bet your life is a lot easier than mine is...

"Drake..."

Or maybe you're thinking about me... like how I can't stop thinking about you... No wait I bet I know what you're doing right now! You're probably breaking my promise and telling Rose where you were and who I was! Yeah that's it...no it's not.

"Drake."

This hurts; it hurts so much. I know that I can't be with you no matter how much I want to be! Need to be! You don't want nor need me... You're a prince and I'm just... just a nothing with no place in your world.

"Drake!"

I bet you have a princess... she must be a very pretty one. With long blonde hair, pink lips and her corset makes her waist so perfectly tiny and her breasts so...

"DRAKE!!!"

"Huh...?" Drake turned to the boss, "Wha...? OWWWIEEE!!!"

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

A light breeze slightly moved the satin curtains that hung over the boy's bed as he lied perfectly still between his silk sheets. The breeze lightly shifted the lavender bangs that had fallen across Jemmy's pale face.

What is going on...? It is morning already...? I barely remember what happened last night...

Sky blue eyes remained shut tightly as the breeze once again made its way across his face.

My head is pounding, it hurts ever so much...A thin arm reached up and a hand traced a path through platinum blue hair to find a large lump, that stung with the light touch. Ouch...where did this come from...? Two teary blue eyes opened to see the crimson red on two thin fingertips.

What is this!?!?!? Jemmy's hand began to shake as he stared at the red... Where...oh gosh, where did this come from!?!?!? He quickly rose from his bed and headed toward the large mirror where he gasped at the sight of a large purplish black bruise upon his left cheek. Gently he lifted his hand carefully touch the mark as he shut his eyes...

"How dare you even think of other man's name under my presence! I wont allow you to anyone else!"

Ted's word ran through his mind, the blurry memory of incoming assault wasn't as fresh as the pain in his cheek and head...

"You will respect me, honor me! And you will fear me, for I will not tolerate you loving someone else! You are mine and mine alone!"

"He hit me..." Jemmy opened his eyes to see the trembling youth in front of him... What a sad sight you are JJ, what would Mister Drake think of you now? If... if he is even thinking of me that is...

The Prince soon jumped at the creaking of his chamber door... he turned his attention toward the smirking red-haired fiancé standing in the doorway...

"It is nice to see you finally awake, my love..." he shut the door and began a slow pace toward the shaking boy, "How was your sleep? Are you ready for your next lesson... my sweet Jemmy..."

Ted pressed the smaller frame against the wall as he brought his lips in and pressed hard against Jemmy's own trembling ones... eyes closing to take in the tender fear.

Sky blue eyes still opened as a single tear made its path down a fragile cheek... This is what must happen... this is how everything has to be... for I am...

"His and his alone..."

Mreow, I'm really sorry for the slow update but I lost my disk and finally found it... but of course I went ahead and broke my arm! So please forgive me, once the cast is off chapter seven will be done!

Need reviews if you haven't left me yet!

Sorry, Neko-Rinny vv
