MONTHS LATER

"I thought you said you wouldn't run anymore." Hunter yelled and Brian giggled as he hide behind the fountain outside. Brian loved playing this hide and seek game, against Hunter's will of course.

These past few months had been amazing for Brian. He had never been more happy in his life. At first, he had a very hard time adjusting to his new life. He was no longer a servant in the palace, he was the king's lover. With this new title, it brought along a lot of jealousy from some of his former co-workers and friends. The jealousy had gotten so bad that one day a servant 'accidentally' wasted hot coffee all over the new designer suit Hunter had just bought from him.

At that moment, Brian just wanted to admit defeat. He was tired of the torment he had received from his former friends and he just wanted to leave. He loved Hunter but he couldn't take the pain of being hated. This was until Hunter kissed him senseless and told him that everything was going to be fine. The next day, the servants that were causing Brian trouble were fired and the rest were given a very stiff warning. They were to respect Brian as if he were Hunter. After that, its been smooth sailing.

"Gotcha." Hunter said and grabbed Brian. He wrapped his arms around his waist, pulled him up, and hugged him close to his chest.

"How did you find me?" Brian said as he struggled in Hunter's large and muscular arms. "You cheated."

"Baby, I'll always find you so I don't know why we play this game." Hunter said as he sat down on the edge of the fountain with Brian in his lap.

"That wasn't fair…you caught me off guard." Brian said and laughed.

Hunter kissed Brian's cheek. "Lucky me." Hunter kissed Brian's neck and inhaled his sweet scent. God, he was so hopelessly in love.

Hunter reached into his pocket and pulled out a small box. "I got something for you." Hunter said and handed to box to Brian.

"Hunter." Brian took the box. Hunter was always showering him with gifts and presents. "I told you about this."

"Just open it baby."

Brian opened the box and gasped. He almost fell out of Hunter's lap when he was it. It was a beautiful three stone engagement ring. The middle stone was a diamond princess cut and the two outside stones were emeralds and were round cut. The band was made of 24K white gold. Brian couldn't believe it.

"Hunter."

"Say yes." Hunter replied before Brian could say anything else. Brian turned to look at Hunter.

"Yes." Hunter took the ring out of the box and placed it on Brian's finger. He grabbed Brian's head and kissed him deeply. Happiness was his.

Meanwhile on the other side of the palace…

"You cheated." Bret said as he watched Shawn take all of his chips.

"I did not cheat." Shawn started as he stacked his chips. "I thought you would've been a much better card player than that." Shawn said. "You want to play again." Shawn looked across the table and saw that Bret had no one chips.

"Oops, guess I win."

"No, I have something." Bret pulled out a red velvet box and put it on the table.

"What's that?" Shawn asked and Bret shrugged.

"You'll have to beat me to fine out." Bret started. "Blackjack and I'm dealing." Bret said and took the cards from Shawn. "Because you cheat."

"I did not cheat." Shawn said as he giggled. Shawn watched as Bret shuffled up the cards. Shawn smiled as he thought about all of the good times they had had over the months. He should have never ran away from Bret on the first night that they had met. He should have stayed and let him love him. But that didn't matter anymore, he was with Bret now and nothing could take him away from him.

"Alright." Bret said and dealt the cards, two for Shawn and two from himself.

Shawn looked at his cards and smiled. "I'll stay." Bret picked up another card and looked at it. He smiled too.

"20 beat that." Bret said as he flipped over his cards triumphantly.

"21." Shawn said and flipped over his ace and king.

"What the." Bret looked up at Shawn. "You cheated."

"How did I cheat?" Shawn said as he grabbed the box. "You dealt the card." Shawn opened up the red box. "Oh Bret." Inside the box was a platinum ring with gold accents with a round diamond in the center with smaller diamonds surrounding it in a bee like shape. Shawn looked up and saw Bret down on one knee in front of him.

"Will you marry me Shawn?" Bret asked and Shawn shook his head yes. He couldn't even speak because he was so shocked and so happy. Bret took the ring out the box and put it on Shawn's finger. Shawn leaned down and kissed Bret.

"You make me so happy."

The Next Day

Hunter and Bret sat back and watched as their fiancés looked over each others rings and started making wedding plans. They both had big dopey looking smiles on their faces. They were so happy that soon everything would be official. They would be with their loves for the rest of their lives and no one could do anything about it.

"Hey." Shawn yelled and they looked him. "Hart, wipe that stupid look off of you face and help me plan our wedding."

"Yeah, you too Hunter." Brian yelled.

"Is this what we're going to have to deal with for the rest of our lives?" Bret asked.

"I can handle it." Hunter said.

"Me too." Bret agreed as they walked over to their lovers. They could totally handle this.

A few Weeks Later…

Stephanie opened up the two invitations that her family had just gotten in the mail. "Oh my God."

"What?" Sunny asked.

"Hunter and Brian are getting married." Stephanie said as she read the invite.

"Oh, that's good." Sunny said and went back to filing her nails.

Stephanie grabbed the other invitation and opened it. "Bret and Shawn are getting married too."

"What?" Sunny jumped off the couch.

"Yeah, a week after Hunter and Brian get married."

Sunny ripped the invite from Stephanie's hands and read it over. This could not be happening. This was supposed to be her. It was suppose to say Bret and Sunny not Bret and Shawn. The wrong S name was spelled out in silver and gold cursive letters. Sunny was furious.

"Told you to get over him."

"Shut up, Stephanie." Sunny said as she stormed up to her room. No one was allowed to be with Bret except her and if they really do get married in a few weeks from now, well, Sunny would just have to do something with Shawn Michaels.
