Van and hitomi walked out of the palace threw the big forest surrounding the palace.
It was getting dark and cold.
A creepy voice was heard, and suddenly
Hitomi jumped and landed in van's arms, he felt his heart stop and his face get bright red for the first time of his life. Van could tell he liked the feeling a lot and never wanted it to end.
Hitomi looked around her and saw nothing suspicious and felt safe, so she straightened up, let go of van and walked behind him shyly preferring not to speak at all so that the weird situation would be soon forgotten. She was really embarrassed that she behaved like that, throwing her self in the arms of the engaged future king.
And more than that, she was shocked that she ran to him for comfort.
And a few years ago she ran away from him for comfort, it was usually him who scared her.
Her thoughts about him running around wearing a black bag on his head chasing her made her laugh.
Before they knew it, hitomi and van reached the city. It was really crowded.
Hitomi was still lost in her thoughts when she suddenly felt a gentle hand hold hers.
_"there are many people here we could get lost, so don't let go" said van looking to the ground and trying hard to hide his red face.
Hitomi didn't want to release his hand anyway; she was really shocked by her behavior towards him she felt like she...
'Get a grip hitomi he is going to get married in a few days, so don't even try…oh my god it can't be…but I used to hate him so much…and now…no I don't stand a chance anyway he is going to get married'
Hitomi's mood changed suddenly she felt sad because van was right beside and she knew she couldn't stand a chance with him.
_"you seem silent suddenly, why are you sad?"
_"oh I am not sad, I just got lost in my thoughts 'and feelings'"
The acrobats were amazing that night van and hitomi were really glad to assist the show, it was a lovely night.
As they walked back to the palace after the show, the road was brightened by the beautiful moon as they held hands and walked slowly talking about everything:
_"oh it has been a long time ago since I haven't had much fun"
_"its right you haven't been able to relax for a minute, even for lunch, but for the person you love you would do anything"
At the moment hitomi said those words, she regretted them; she could feel her heart melt. But to her surprise van turned to her and said:
_"the problem is that I don't… (Van hesitated in what he wanted to say even if he really meant it, yet he feared hitomi's reaction) I don't get the chance at night to breath since I have to attend ceremonies like the bachelor party for example"
At that moment, van and hitomi looked at each other and screamed:
_"THE BECHALOR PARTYY!"
They had completely forgotten about it, so they ran as fast as they could, always holding hands and trying desperately to reach the palace on time.
***meanwhile in the palace***
Princess Celena was entering the big hall with her brown gown and golden tiara, looking proudly at the gests. As she went down the middle stairs she noticed that she didn't see any of van's closest friends in the party although she made sure that she invited them to come, she remember as well how much van insisted not to invite them…
_"but I thought they were your friends, why do you insist on not inviting them" yelled Celena.
_"because I know they wouldn't come" replied van coldly
_"and why is that did something happen between you, oh people! And here I thought that these are true friends to you"
_"because they are true friends they won't come"
Celena was still thinking about the things that told her van that day and she still didn't understand why his friends wouldn't come.
It was really strange.
But she really wanted to find out what van meant.
And she was going to find out soon…
The party already started and still van hasn't showed up, Celena was beginning to worry; all the gests were wondering where the king is.
The music started to play. It was time for the first dance.
Celena was mad. Van still hasn't showed up.
The first song passed, the second, the third…
Suddenly, she yelled all across the hall. She realized he wouldn't show up.
How dare he! Oh he was going to get a piece of her mind.
But now all she could do was blowing out her anger somehow.
So she started breaking the diner plates, the cups, the tables, everything.
A few seconds later no gests were left.
She was all alone, yelling and yelling and suddenly…
Van walked across the front door with his regular clothes, holding hands tightly with hitomi.
Holding hands…
This was it. She was all out of her mind. He doesn't show up for his own bachelor party. He makes her look like a fool and then he shows up with another girl with him.
Holding hands!
Hitomi and van couldn't believe what they saw.
The hall was completely destroyed, there was no one left, and all they could see was the princess looking hastily at them and piercing them with her eyes like a poisoned arrow.
Hitomi, she could feel a cold in her spine; she was never looked at like that before. She was lost she didn't know what to do.
All she could do was stand still, confused…
As for van, he was used to that kind of look coming from her before. This was why he could never love her. There was always something in her eyes that showed hatred and revenge and he couldn't stand her looking at him like that anymore.
All what was left for him was to leave and let her be; he didn't want to argue with her that night, he was happy tonight, he just got a taste of what love was like.
But…
He didn't know what love was going to cost him.
"You broke my heart and I'm going to break yours".
For that the evil princess now wants to take her revenge on the dearest person to van's heart…
Hitomi…
Sorry for the late update, but we had a lot of exams lately and I was suffering from connection errors.
