Finally, another chapter! Yaaay Thank you for the reviews, I really appreciate them.

I've watched the newest trailer of Final fantasy Versus eerr I mean Final Fantasy XV and it's for PS4. Gotta buy them but no money orz.

Stella looked better in the trailer, but still.. I just think making a princess-type character blonde is a bit stereotypical (no offense :3)

Disclaimer: Final Fantasy Versus XIII is Square Enix's, not mine. I just make my own story from the game for fun, no other reason. :3

One day later as promised Catalina went to the castle. She wore a red sweater and white long skirt. She helped her aunt first; delivered flowers to a head maid. Finishing her job, she went to the library immediately.

She opened the door lightly. The room was very wide and beautiful. There were many books and wooden shelves. There were multimedia section with full of computers but she was not very familiar with that kind of thing. It looked like empty because she saw no one there. She walked silently to find Noctis. She didn't notice that someone was approaching behind her. Suddenly she felt a hand was on her shoulder.

"What are you searching for, young lady?" A hoarse voice startled her. She shrieked a little, looked back at the source of the voice. Behind her was an old man. He was so tall, one foot taller than her. He was thin and had so many wrinkles on his square face. He wore light blue shirts and black trousers. He also wore glasses. Catalina observed all-over him. The old man cleared his throat. Catalina blinked surprisingly.

"I'm sorry. I'm looking for Prince Noctis. Is His Highness here?" She asked.

"So you're Catalina, right? I'm Guerro, a librarian here. His Highness is in the corner, in the history section. Follow me," He told her, walking to the direction. Catalina followed him quietly.

In the moment they arrived at the section. The saw Noctis was reading a book calmly. He raised an eyebrow when he heard footsteps and looked at them. Catalina smiled softly. Guerro bowed at him respectfully.

"You're Highness, Catalina is here."

"You may go, Guerro," He asked Guerro.

"Thank you, Your Highness," He bowed again and then left them alone.

Catalina sat slowly across him. Noctis closed his book, looking at her with unreadable eyes. He leant his chin on his knuckle.

"….clean this table," He said lowly.

"What?" She asked, not knowing what he meant.

"I said you clean this table. From now on when we're in the library you will clean this kind of thing," He told her. Catalina was angry and surprised to hear that. Suddenly she stood up, hands on her sides.

"I won't do it. What am I to you? A maid?" She asked, getting annoyed. He raised an eyebrow.

"If you won't do it then you should go home and leave me alone," He told her calmly.

"*grumble* Fine, I'll do it for my job," She said, giving up.

"Good," He said. He took an upper book from a stack of books to read it. Catalina took books to bring them back to where they were. They were very heavy so she didn't bring them at once. Because of the number of the shelves she often got lost. When she did, Guerro would always come to her suddenly, and it made her wonder.

Couple minutes later she had done her job, but she still had to clean away papers around him. Without her awareness Noctis watched her in the corner of his eyes. Noctis couldn't help but watch her again. He always lost in her innocent face and didn't know why. He actually didn't want to do that for her, but he mustn't just believe in her every words. So he tested her until he believed in her. Not wanting to get caught by her, he focused back to his reading.

"I'm done," She told him. Noctis looked in front of him. It was clean indeed. He closed his book. He brought the book back to the shelf. After that he went to her.

"Let's go."

"Where are we going?" She asked, blinking innocently.

"To the café. I'll treat you." She gaped at him.

"H-huh? café? Hey, wait!" Noctis already left her. She ran a little to catch him up.

They sat down in front of each other in the nearest café to the castle. Catalina looked at the menu carefully, didn't know which one to choose. Noctis called a waiter and he went to them quickly.

"I want black coffee and egg & chips," He told the waiter and then asked Catalina. "What do you want?"

"Sorry mister, is there any pineapple juice?" She asked, sounded unsure. The waiter's eyes twitched. Noctis was taken aback at her words too.

"I'm sorry miss but we don't have any pineapple juice here," He told her. She sighed lightly but smiled at him after that.

"It's alright. Then I want white haze and churros," She said softly.

"Black coffee, egg & chips, white haze, and churros. Please wait for a moment." The waiter left them.

"I never thought that someone would like a pineapple juice," He said. Catalina smiled widely.

"I really love pineapple juice. It tastes a little sour but fresh," She commented happily. After that she leant on him a little.

"I can't read your mind at all. First you gave me hard thing and now you treat me," She whispered lightly.

"So what? Do you want me to give you another hard job?" He challenged her. She shook her head quickly.

"No thank you. I've had enough," She answered. Surprisingly he smirked at her. She looked at him, blushing hardly. He's more handsome like this, she thought. Quickly she turned away, not brave enough to meet his gaze.

"Your Highness!" A soldier came to them when they went back to the castle. Noctis turned to him.

"What is it?"

"There's an attack in south district! Some gargoyles do that," The soldier informed him. His expression became more serious.

"Call the soldiers immediately. I'll go with Prompto, Gladiolus, and Ignis," He commanded.

"Yes sir!" He left them hurriedly.

"You go home. I'll take care of this," He asked Catalina. She was worried about everyone so she shook her head.

"No, I'll go with you. I will fly to the district. This is my job," She said and then ran. She left him before he could stop her. He sighed deeply. He didn't have enough time to think about that.

Catalina ran to an empty place outside the castle. She summoned her wings and flew as fast as she could to the place. Finally she reached the district. From afar she saw about twenty gargoyles was smashing things around them. She gasped when she saw a group of children was cornered by gargoyles. They were three boys and two girls. She flew to them and casted blizzard. Gargoyles flew away from them. Catalina landed in front of the children. She hid her wings so they could see her.

"Are you alright?" She asked. A girl was crying in a boy's hug. A bigger boy walked to her.

"We're alright. Thank you miss," He thanked her. She smiled and summoned a bow.

"Stay behind me. I'll defeat them," She told them. Some of them nodded slowly. She casted a spell and an ice wall were visible around them. She turned to the gargoyles. They howled loudly in front of her, taking a step toward her. She searched the nearest gargoyle and shot it multiple times with icy arrows. Another one flew to her but she managed to dodge it. With her wings she flew a little and shot them. Some of them fell down, unconscious. She casted a simple blizzard spell to slow down their movement. After that she casted a sleeping spell and they fell asleep. Unfortunately there was still another gargoyle that could dodge the spell. It howled angrily to her. She prepared to shoot it when it jumped to her. Before she could do it there was a loud stabbing sound and the gargoyle died in front of her. She saw Noctis in front of her, holding a medium-length sword. He was so calm like he was breathless. His eyes were still in deep black.

"Protect the children. I'll take care of this," He told her. Catalina sighed lightly, gave him a small smile.

"Alright," She answered. Noctis took a step back to look at her before leaving her. She felt that he was a little cold at that time, like there was a very thick wall between them. She put her hand on her chest, breathing heavily.

Blood flowed around the icy ground, coloring the ice in red. After a short fight Noctis and his soldiers had taken care of the gargoyles. Some of them ran away and another died from the battle. The soldiers cleaned away the corpses and the properties around it. Noctis checked the soldiers and citizens to make sure that no one was hurt. Fortunately there was no one that was hurt. Noctis was relieved to know that. After this situation he thought that Catalina was innocent. He didn't see anything wrong about her because he analyzed her every time when they were together. He walked around to find Catalina. He saw her with the children, talking a little. He approached behind her.

"Are you alright?" He asked. Catalina glanced at him, smiling at him. The children watched him and felt afraid of him a little.

"Yes, we are alright. I thought I want to walk them home but they want to go to a shop first. They're going to buy a gift to their teacher. May I accompany them first? I'll go back after that," She asked him. He walked to them and crossed his arms. They looked down, holding each other's hands.

"Why don't you just go home? Your parents will be worried," He stated. They looked at each other. One of them who was tallest had the courage to answer him.

"Our teacher's birthday is tomorrow. We don't have enough time to buy the gift if we go home now. Don't worry about us, Your Highness. We'll be careful," He answered. He was trembling but still looking at Noctis in the eye. He sighed lowly.

"Then I'll go with you," He said. They were surprised, their eyes blinked hardly. Catalina smiled lovingly. The children looked at each other for a while, and then began walking. Noctis and Catalina followed them from behind.

"Why do you do it? You're supposed to be busy, right?" She asked. He looked in front of them.

"I'm not busy. Besides it is my responsibility to make sure that they are alright." Catalina smiled again.

"I'm sure they like you now," She commented.

"I'm sorry if I'm not a friendly person," He grunted

Catalina chuckled. "I'm serious. They'll be your fans *giggle*."

"Shut up." He looked away. She stopped laughing, looking at the children.

"But they are so lovely," She said. Noctis looked at her. She indeed very beautiful, he thought.

"Yeah," He whispered.

Two days later Catalina came to the library as usual. She didn't found Noctis there, only a table full of books and papers. She sighed deeply. Tiring job as usual, she thought. Guerro came to her, bowing politely.

"Your Highness is having a meeting right now. He asked you to stay here until he finished," He said.

"Alright. Thank you Mr. Guerro," She thanked him.

"Just Guerro. By the way he brought something for you,"He said, looking at a neat side of the table. She looked at the direction of his view. There were a box and a bottle of pineapple juice. "Well if you excuse me." He left her. She walked to the table. She was very curious of the box, so she opened it carefully. She saw a small grey cell phone, a flip one to be exact. She took it, felt angered. There was a note under the phone. She read it carefully.

Take a very good care of it. I know you'll learn to use it fast. I've saved my number in your phone.

She smiled softly. She was so happy, because she knew that Noctis would believe in her.

"You're indeed a very kind man," She whispered.
