Hey. Here's the next chapter.

The ball was finally over and it was well past midnight. Drew and May had the most wonderful time together the whole night. Sir Ashton and his wife, Lady Michella watched them together as they danced, walked and talked. They smiled at each other remembering the first time that they ever met. Immediately when they looked back the two were gone.

Instead of going to find the two, they went into their own rooms to go to bed.

"Ash," she said to him while she sat combing her short hair.

"Yes, my dear." He went to her and kissed her neck.

"Don't they make a cute couple?" She looked at her husband and smiled.

"Not as cute as we were, Misty."

"Ash, how did you ever come up with that ridiculously cute name?" Ash smirked.

"It was like magic. It just happened." Misty smiled. Then they heard someone knock.

"Who is it?"

"Roger, your ladyship."

"Oh Roger, Come in."

"My lord, my lady. I have news that you might be interested in."

"What is it?"

"I have a very strong feeling that May is the princess."

"Princess?"

"Of Castile, my lady."

"Why that's crazy. There's no possible way it's the princess. Plus isn't she studying in the school in the north."

"Actually, the King did say he would search the school. If the soldiers found a secret assembly then the school would be shut down."

"They must have found the assembly. What'll happen to the kids?" Ash didn't know.

"They could be sold into slavery or put in another nearby school."

"Oh." Misty said surprised. Ash usually told her everything: every single boring detail and every single exciting gesture that she was allowed to know.

"I'm just as surprised as you are Misty." Ash said, "The news hasn't even reached the king yet so he could handle the situation. When the king finds out…" Ash paused. "Thank you, Roger. You may go."

"Yes, my lord."

"I should probably tell Drew."

"Ash… no." Misty said stopping them. "Maybe he already knows about her."

"I don't want to take that chance, Misty."

"Let them have one night to themselves." Misty begged. "Whatever you have to say can wait until morning when he comes barging in here telling us about his night." Ash smiled because it was the same every morning. He'd wake them up when the sun rose and come straight into their room. He was worse than a young child on Christmas morning.

"Alright." Ash surrendered. "But the second he comes in, I'm telling."

"As long as it's in the morning." Misty smiled and sat on their bed. Ash sat next to her and kissed her cheek.

The sun finally rose a couple of hours later. May felt comfortable in his arms. She felt the warmth of his body lying next to her. Drew's arms wrapped around her slim waist. She could tell he was awake when he kissed her neck. She lightly giggled and turned toward him.

"I knew you weren't asleep?"

"Why however did you know?" she smiled looking into his beautiful green eyes. She touched his cheek. He took the hand that touched his cheek and kissed it.

"I love you, May." She smiled. Then he kissed her so passionately.

"I love you, too, Drew: more than you will ever know." He pecked her on the lips and smiled.

Misty and Ash didn't wake up yet. He held her in the arms and she leaned into his chest. Then the door opened. They didn't budge.

"Hey you guys wake up."

"No, mommy. 5 more minutes." Ash said still asleep. Drew went to the windows and opened the curtains. Only Misty moved as the light touched their faces.

"Good morning, Drew." She said unwrapping herself from Ash's grasp and yawned while Ash was still asleep.

"Good morning, Misty."

"I had an amazing night at the ball."

"And afterwards I bet." Misty smirked. Drew blushed.

"I love her, Misty. She's the most wonderful and amazing woman I've ever known. She's only a couple of years younger than me and she understands me."

"How can you know that after just one night?"

"I could feel every time we talked and walked together I could feel it." Misty smiled.

"Aww. Your first love." She messed in his hair and he fixed it. "Ash. Wake up." She shook him. "Huh. It's morning." Ash put his head back down.

"It was morning when we went to sleep."

"Don't you want to hear about Drew's night?" Then Misty whispered in his ear. "Plus aren't you supposed to ask him something?" Then she kissed his cheek. Ash immediately sat up and looked at Drew. Misty sat in Ash's lap as he yawned.

"How'd you sleep or did you sleep at all?" Ash smirked, making him blush.

"I love her," Drew said.

"Are you sure?"

"Ash-"

"No, Misty. I'm serious. Do you love her or do you love how beautiful she is?"

"Ash, you told me you believed in love at first sight."

"Not in this case. She's different."

"Why because she's not from England?"

"Well yes." Misty hit him with the pillow and ran into their bathroom crying.

"What did I say?" Ash asked.

"Do you know what you said?"

"It's different because she's not from England." Ash replied smartly to Drew's comment.

"Misty's French aka not from England." Ash's eyes went wide.

"Drat."

"Ash, what was your point?"

"She lied to you."

"How?"

"She's not just a girl from Castile. She's the princess." Ash said.

"She's not a princess."

"How do you know? She hasn't even been here a full day."

"How can you talk about her? She hasn't been here for a full day."

"How can you sleep with her? She hasn't been here a full day."

"You know what? In order to settle this I'll ask her. I'll ask her." Drew repeated.

"And please tell me. So I can tell the king. He has to know."

"Please don't."

"You know I have to, Drew. Loyalty to the king is more important than your love life with her."

"You won't have to tell the king because it won't be true." Drew walked out mad.

Drew walked into his room to see May with a book in her hands as she read. She looked at him and smiled.

"I'm sorry. I hope you don't mind."

"No." Drew smiled.

"You have quite a collection." May said, "Shakespeare is an amazing writer."

"Yeah. There's none like him in the entire world." Drew sat next to May and looked at her. May blushed. "May. I have to ask you something…" There was an awkward silence between them. "Are you the princess?"

"…So you found out." May looked down and turned away from him.

"Were you ever going to tell me?" Drew said.

"When the time was right… If I told you, I thought you wouldn't treat me the same."

"What would make you think that?"

"… I don't know." Drew lifted her chin and kissed her passionately. He pulled her closer to him by holding her waist.

"Is that any different?"

May shook her head, "No." He kissed her forehead.

"I have to tell Ash, so he could tell the king."

May looked down, "I understand."

He lifted her head with his finger, "No matter what, I will always love you. I will go to the ends of the earth for you." He seen her look sad, "I promise."

"How do I know? I love you with all my heart but I don't want a broken heart."

Next to him was a small drawer. He opened it and searched for the small box. He looked at the box for a second and then opened it. It was a beautiful golden locket. It took it in his hands and put it around his neck.

"Drew… I can't-"

"It was my mother's. I want you to have it. So you'll know."

"Drew…"

"May, please… Take it." She didn't say another word she just looked at him and nodded. "Wear it under your dress. I don't want Ash to see it. He'll go nuts." Drew lightly smiled and kissed her cheek.

"Misty, please talk to me." Ash said sitting at the door while she was on the other side. He was already dressed. "I'm sorry."

"Yeah right. I don't believe you," Misty cried.

"I love you, Misty. I mean it."

"What ever happened to only English are capable of love. I'm not from England."

"I know. I'm sorry. I do love you. I loved you ever since I laid eyes on you."

"Then how come Drew can't be the same? Do you remember how long it was until you proclaimed you loved me after we first met?"

"It was a couple of hours." Ash said.

"It was an hour later." Misty came out of the bathroom and looked him straight in the eye. "You said Drew was rushing into things."

"But Misty it's different."

"How? Because May didn't runaway with him and give up everything for him like I did. I gave up everything for you: my parents, my sisters, my family, my friends and my people. If I was to ever go back they'd disown me if they haven't already. They would have killed me. But I still married you. And you have the audacity to say you don't believe in love at first sight. And you don't even want to have children with me. Are you ashamed of me?"

"No, Misty. I love you." Misty just had tears down her cheeks. "I'm just not ready for kids. I want you to myself for just a little while longer."

"It's been at least 2 years." Misty said, "When will you be ready?"

"You know you're really not being fair." Ash said. Misty turned around and pouted. "I have to go. We'll talk about this later… Goodbye."

"…Bye." Misty didn't turn around to look at Ash. He paused and sighed as he looked at Misty. Then he walked out the door and closed it. Misty laid on her bed and cried. 'I thought you loved me.' Misty thought. Ash stood outside the listening to hear cry. He looked down and couldn't handle her crying.

"Aren't you going to talk to her?"

"No." Ash said to Drew, "She can wait. The King can't. Let's go."
