I feel a light presence when I come back to consciousness. And a voice. A begging voice.
"Please be ok Crescent."
It's Laval. He must be worried about, last night...
I open my eyes, to see him sigh in relief. I'm about to ask about last night, when he answers for me.
"You began to pass out and we panicked. Dad called guards to help you, Lavertus ordered a servant to help and you blacked out on us."
I couldn't help it! I cant stand pressure! But I know I scared them so much. I apologize and pass it off as something common when I get really nervous.
By the look on Laval's face though, I'm not sure he buys it. But he changes it to a gentle smile and kisses my forehead.
"I'm just happy your ok." He says.
We talk some more and he helps me pick a outfit for today.
"Well, I say you don't really need this frilly stuff."
"Then what should I wear? The closet is full of that stuff."
"You don't like it either?"
"No."
"Well here's something." He says holing up a royal blue shirt and skirt.
It's similar to his outfit in a way, but its golden laced and made of silk. I think about it, but turn it down.
Laval doesn't argue. He then holds up a short gown with golden hemming's, no sleeves, just my style except the gold.
"Alright." I say, Laval nodding in agreement.
He leaves me for privacy as I change. Then we take a walk around the city.
People bow to us in respect Laval nods back and so do I. Laval Shows me where places are like the blacksmith, bakery, and court yard.
We talk about many things. Our favorite foods, hobbies, childhood, and I even mention that memory I had at dinner. He said he remembered too.
Good to know. But then he asks my favorite color.
"Why my favorite color?"
"Just so we get closer. Were gonna be married in three days right?"
Three? I never knew time flew quickly for these things, but I tell him anyways.
"Green."
"Green?"
"Like, forest green. Its lush and not all in your face, or bright and very noticeable like bright colors. And, its very peaceful."
"Well, Mine is Silver."
"Silver?"
"Like, polished sword silver. Fresh and clean."
Dinner comes sooner than expected. And I hope I don't crated a big shock like yesterday.
"Crescent, It's wonderful to see your alright." "LaGravis says patting my shoulder.
"Indeed."
We start off dinner by me finally giving them all the personal info Laval heard, but he just smiles. Bet he doesn't mind hearing it again.
Lavertus then brings up the wedding. Splendid...
"Oh yes, I forgot." Laval said looking at me awkward. I think he's embarrassed. But we discuss the dinner, décor, and music.
When LaGravis asks me what I like in a dress. one thing comes out Laval's mouth I was about to say.
"No fluffy ruffles or fancy things dad. She prefers simple things."
"Oh, Well that's reasonable."
I look at him while his father and uncle discuss my choice over, I mouth to him 'Thank you...'
He only returns a loving smile.
