Thank you all for the wonderful reviews!
Prompt: I couldn't sleep last night. I kept tossing and turning. And then I remembered this fairytale.
Misaki kept tossing and turning. He couldn't sleep. He felt as though something kept poking him in the back and sides everytime he turned.
"Aarrgghh! Why can't I get comfortable!" Misaki shouted and quickly quieted down. He listened for any signs that the other woke up. He couldn't hear anything.
'Maybe there's something under the mattress? I feel like something is poking me and it won't stop. But I have to do this quietly or Usagi san will wake up.' His mind made up, he got out of bed and turned on his light. He lifted his mattress up part way and looked. Nothing.
He went to the front of his bed and lifted it partway again. There. Under his mattress was a pea.
"What the-"
"Ah. I see Misaki has passed the test."
Misaki dropped the mattress with a loud plunk and lookd up. "Waahh! Usagi san! What're you doing here!? Did I wake you up!? I'm sorry if I did! I-"
Akihiko chuckled at his lover. "I've been awake for awhile. But that's not important. Misaki, you've passed the test."
Now Misaki was confused. "What test?"
Akihiko sat on the bed and pulled Misaki to him. "They ay only a real princess could feel a pea under her mattress. You felt it, therefore you must be a princess."
Misaki gaped at him, his cheeks turning red. "Baka Usagi! I'm not a princess! I'm a boy! I'm-"
"Oh? But only a real princess has delicate senses and would have felt the peaunder her mattress."
"I'm not a princess! And who says that I felt the pea? What if I was just checking for something?"
The author smirked. He loved it when Misaki got all flustered. "And what were you checking for?"
"I-I was..checking for....ummm....it's like..."
"You were checking for the pea." Akihiko stated and Misaki dropped the whole act. He knew the older male was right.
"I didn't know it was a pea. I thought it was a rock." He sighed and started pouting. Suddenly Akihiko picked Misaki up and headed out the door and to his room.
"Waahh! Usagi san! What are you doing!? Put me down!" He stuggled in vain.
"We're going to my room. There are no peas there."
"No! You pervert! Let me go! I don't want to!"
"But my princess means yes. And being his prince, I have to take care of my princess's needs."
From that day forward, Misaki's new nickname around the house and used only by Usagi san was "Princess Misaki."
Again, was tired and thought this would be funny.
