I DO NOT OWN ZATCH BELL, THANK YOU ALL OF THE WEBSITES THAT LET ME KNOW SPELLS AND CHARACTERS!
TEN YEARS LATER...
"I present to you all...King Zatch!" The masquerade of guests clapped their glove-covered hands. The ballroom's huge windows were covered in blood-red drapery. The floor was marble of black and white, intricate designs being trampled on by heels. The chairs were cherry wood, and had red velvet cushions. There was a long table in the corner of the vast room.
Zatch...King Zatch...walked proudly, yet humbly out onto the floor. He was wearing a blue royal shirt and black dress slacks. The congregation cheered him on. He bowed respectively to his guests. He recognized the faces of many who laughed at him and called him a weakling. Maruss was in the backround, sippping wine, looking dejected and uninterested. "And now I present to you...Queen Tia!" Tia had her long pink hair done in a ballet bun. Her black elegant gown reached the edge of her heels. It had no back, but heR collar more than made up for it. The bottom of the dress flowed like a waterfall down to her feet. Maruss grunted.
The young royal couple politely greeted their guests. "Tia?" Tia turned to look at her husband. "I can't take much more of all this cheesy small talk. I'm going to go hide out in our room. trade in an hour?" Tia smiled. "Of course." Zatch smiled in relief, then left. Tia felt someone tap her shoulder.
"OOOP!" She turned, startled. "I'm sorry Zeno, how are you?" Zeno had on a white dress shirt and purple pants.
"Sorry I startled you."
"No, no trouble."
"Care to dance?" Tia's eyes widened, and her breathing hitched.
"No."
"What?"
"You heard me, no."
"Oh...no problem." Zeno's smiled half-faded, but his eyes told her he was disappointed.
I guess he still has a crush on me, even after all these years. Tia smiled to herself."Now Zeno, go have fun with your friends. Your brother is hiding from the guests. I need to retrieve him."
Zeno's smiled widened. "Sounds like him." She bid him goodbye and walked away. He, even after all these years, even after the couple's six month marriage and planning on having a child, still thought she had pretty hair and a cute face. Once again, he envied his brother, but not for the same reason.
"Hello Zeno, how are you?" Wonrei bowed. He bowed back.
"I'm pleasant, you?" The two continued.
Tia walked toward her bedroom, heels clicking loudly. Tia, Tia, don't go there. That was ten years ago. You're married to Zatch, planning to have children, don't let someone else get in the way, espescially not his brother. You love your family. What you guys had was more of a bipolar thing than love. Stay with Zatch. He has done so much for you. You love him. Zeno...Tia sighed loudly."Zatch, it's my turn."
"No way..."she heard muffled. "It's been like, ten minutes."
"Zatch, open this door or so help me your head will be coming off!" Zatch hesitantly opened the door.
"Tia, is something wrong?" Tia looked frazzled and stressed.
"No, I just need the room more than you do." She roughly pulled him out, shoved herself inside, closed the door, and locked it.
THE END...HOW'D YOU LIKE IT?
