Chapter 2- Quite Some Time

As the three entered the castle, the entire staff clapped and cheered for them. Eiko blushed, thinking they were cheering for her because she returned the necklace. But they were cheering for the new couple. Their Queen and her King. Dagger and Zidane. Both had a smile spread across thier face.
The moment they reached the stairs up to the Queen's chambers, Eiko stopped following them. But only because Dr. Tot stopped her.
"They need to be alone right now dear, you can visit with Zidane later," the Doctor told her.

When they reached the door to her chamber's, Beatrix and Stiener were standing in front of it. Beatrix started to open the door for them, but Stiener began to protest. He didn't think that Zidane needed to be in the Queen's chambers. But before he could say anything, Beatrix shot him the 'if you don't knock it off right now I'm going to hurt you so bad you'll never forget it' look. He then stepped away from the entrance, and allowed the two to pass. After they were both inside, Beatrix shut and locked the door behind them so no one could bother them.
"They need to left alone for quite some time. He has been gone for years now, and don't you dare object. You would want the same thing if you were her," Beatrix told Stiener matter-of-factly.
