Princess Keala
Chapter 3
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
When Keala woke up, she got up out of her bed and went straight to her dresser. Keala's dresser had a hairbrush, a mirror, and a few dolls her father had brought her at the royal market the day before he had left. Keala picked up the brush and brushed all the tangles out of her hair as swiftly as possible. Keala heard a knock on her chamber door. She hastily set her brush down and walked over and opened it. To her surprise, Kristine had brought her breakfast. Kristine ambled over and gently set the food on the bed.
Keala asked politely, "Kristine, could you get some food for a two person picnic and have Angel and also that black horse, what's its name, oh yeah, Beauty ready a few minutes before noon? Oh, and Kristine, thanks for the breakfast."
Kristine was shocked but stated with a nod, "Yes ma'am. And you are welcome, Miss. Glad to see you eating."
At this Kristine left the room to prepare what the princess had asked for. Keala waited till the last of her friend's footsteps faded away. When they did, Keala went to her bed quickly and ate her breakfast as quickly as possible without making a mess.
She finished eating and got dressed. She put on her layered skirt, a beautiful shirt with a stitched design down it, and her bead -like headpiece.
Keala hurried down the steps to the stables to go see Angel. After that she went back to her tower to wait for noon to arrive. It seemed to take forever, but when noon came Keala was ready to go and have lunch with Kalen.
Keala was coming down the stairs when Kristine strolled out of the kitchen on the first floor and handed her the basket of food for the picnic. Kristine helped pack the horses in silence. When Keala mounted Angel, she thought she would burst with anticipation.
Finally, she was ready to go. Keala left the gates of the castle and headed straight to town.
Keala was delighted to see Kalen was waiting for her. The town was really busy that day and they were all bowing to Keala and staring at Kalen. Keala unloaded the food. Then Keala and Kalen ate their cooked rabbits in peace other than the town's people were staring at them, which made many bump into other marketers. Which made food flight every were and mad customers made when the sales man didn't pay any attention to them
When they were done, Kalen was the first to break the silence by asking, "What did you bring that black horse for?"
"Why, I brought Beauty here for you to ride, silly." Keala said, laughing.
"Me? No way." Kalen declared, surprised and a little annoyed. Keala started laughing again. Kalen's face turned beet red with embarrassment. He could see the townspeople talking among themselves.
Keala asked him politely in a low voice, "Do you want to go riding now?"
"Yeah, let's go before someone comes up to us." Kalen said in a kind of tone Keala couldn't understand but she simply said, "Yes, that would be a good idea. Oh, and just to let you know, don't worry about trying to get Beauty at the same pace as Angel because they will stay at the same pace by themselves."
Kalen looked curious then said, "Do you mean Beauty is as fast as."
"Angel, you mean. That's the white one's name. But yes, Beauty is as fast as Angel. In fact, they are sisters." Keala said.
Kalen nodded to let her know that he understood her. They packed up what was left of the food. Now on the horses, they took off out of town. They stopped half a mile down the road and turned left toward the huge forest. Keala was taking Kalen to her hideout that only she knew about. Keala knew the path well.
~*~*~*~*
They went deep into the forest. The forest was a place were most people feared to go for it was said that if you stay to long that you would be eaten by a giant bear that was as tall as the trees themselves which was over sixty feet tall. This rumor Keala knew best but also knew that it was not true for the only living animals there were the forest animals.
Finally Keala found an area so big she could see a mile in every direction. Keala signaled a halt at the last tree that separated the forest from the open field.
Kalen asked cautiously, "Where are we?"
"Kael, we are in my secret hideout. This is where I usually go when I feel lonely." Keala explained as she gave a big sigh. Keala then slipped off Angel. There was a rock in the middle of this open area and Keala went straight for it without hesitation. Kalen had followed her in pursuit. Keala sat down beside the stone and he settled down next to her.
This time Keala broke the silence by saying coolly, "This is my favorite place because of this stone here."
As she pointed to the stone, Kalen could see that it was a glowing pale green.
He was about to ask what it was when Keala said smoothly,"This is the Peace Stone. This is why the town here is so peaceful."
Kalen glanced at Keala and Keala looked at him. Something in Kalen's eyes caught Keala's attention. They stared into each other's eyes for a long time, but before either of them looked away, they both knew that they were meant to be together.
Neither said anything for a while. Then suddenly Kalen announced that it is very peaceful here. Slowly Kalen reached for Keala's hand. Keala felt the movement and did nothing about it. When his hand held hers, she couldn't help but look up into his attractive bright blue eyes that gave her a happy sort of feeling. She felt a pleasant relief in those eyes happy understanding eyes with a little dot of worry.
Unexpectedly, both Keala and Kalen found themselves starting to lean toward each other. Finally a breathtaking kiss reached Keala. The sensation ran through her yelling, 'More, more.'
At last Kalen pulled away. Keala blushed a deep red with embarrassment because she knew she liked it. They talked for a while about their lives. Keala was talking about how she hardly ever saw her mom and that her dad took care of her the most. Then she told him that her father had taught her archery and how to fight with a sword. Kalen had told her that he couldn't remember much about his childhood other then their faces.
It came about evening and Keala asked happily, "Would you like to come over to my place for dinner tonight?"
Keala was getting use to seeing Kalen's surprised face.
Kalen answered in an awed voice, "Sure, I would love that."
As he said that he reached for Keala's hand.
Keala wondered when Kalen's hand touched hers 'Do I love him?' and at the same moment Kalen wondered 'Do I love her?'
