It's been a week since Flora came to live with her uncle and aunt. Faragonda had work to do with her husband so she put off shopping with the twenty year old till tonight so the brunette had to continue wearing her old pink, mini dresses.
"You think they are going to pass here today Nabu?" Flora asked as they sat on the bench in front of the house.
During her free time, Flora managed to build a wooden bench near the garden she created.
"Yes Flora, they have rode pass here every day, so of cause they must come today." Nabu said annoyed. It was the third time she asked him since morning.
"Flora, tell me why are you so excited to see the Prince and his friends here everyday?
"Because..." She sighed. "Every time they pass I see this one particular guy and my heart beats faster and faster like it's going to rip out of my chest. I could just melt every time he looks at me, I can't get him out of my mind. Nabu I think I going crazy. What do you think is wrong with me?"
"Flora my dear I think you're…" He stopped when the group was coming towards them.
Riven was at front with Helia beside him while the others were behind as a method of protection.
"Helia, that girl is out there again." Riven said angrily as they rode pass the house looking at the pair.
"How beautiful." Helia said dreamily.
Riven heard this and said, "Helia, I see you have fallen for that girl. Who is to say that man beside her isn't her boyfriend."
Helia looked angrily at Riven before focusing on the road."I will soon find out just you wait." He answered, sounding almost jealous.
Flora looked dreamily at the prince not realizing that Nabu was watching her.
"Flora, it is the prince that holds your affection I see." He said, happily.
The brunette blushed at his statement before replying. "Yes he is the reason my heart beats faster. I like him a lot."
"Flo, do you realize that the prince can have any girl of his choosing. Why would he choose a peasant like you when he can have a princess and all the money in the world?" Nabu said, softly.
Flora looked sadly to the ground and said, "You are right. Why would he want me of all people? I am from the poorest district in the entire country and could never offer him anything." She looked up back to see that Helia and his friends had disappeared into town.
She shed a single tear before towards the house to do her daily chores.
"Flora," Nabu stopped her. "You're a beautiful girl. There are a lot of guys out there that would love to be with you but it's more than likely will never be the prince."
She stopped without even bothering to turn around. "You are right but no other guy has ever made me feel this way before. It's going to take some time to get over him since I can't just switch off my feelings just like that." She then ran straight into the house.
The next day as the guys drove pass the house they saw Flora, alone this time, reading. She was sitting on the bench, reading a romance novel. Flora was too into the book to notice the five males driving her way.
"Prince Helia, that stupid girl is out there again. I think she likes one of us. We need to knock some sense into her."
"We should tell her that we have girlfriends already." Brandon suggested.
"Well expect Helia." Timmy informed him.
"Helia can have any girl he feels like." Sky mentioned. "Expect our girlfriends of course. He is just too picky."
"Enough!" Helia spoke. "Riven don't you dare call anyone especially her stupid! Why are you always looking down on people?"
"Sorry my prince." The purple hair male said softly.
"Guys, stop in front of the house." Helia told the others. "I want to talk to her."
"Yes sir!" They joked.
Flora heard the noise and looked up from her book to see that Helia had stopped in front of the house. The others did the same afterwards.
The Prince was the only one that got off his bike and headed towards her.
'Oh no. What am I going to do? He is coming right towards me, I must have done something wrong.' Flora began to panic and ran off into the house leaving a very sad and confused Helia.
Helia called out to her. "Wait I need to talk to you or at least know your name."
When she was finally inside the house Helia got back on his bike and headed into town, leaving the others behind.
"Dude, I think he maybe in love." Brandon pointed out.
"You may have a point." Sky muttered. "This is the first time I have seen him act like this. Maybe this girl could be the one for him."
"Guys, we better catch up with him." Timmy started his bike. "We may be hanging out with him but we are still on the job and must protect him."
"Helia can handle himself better than all us combined." Sky pointed out.
The others started their bikes and sped after Helia.
After finishing their duties in town, the Specialist drove the same route back towards the palace. Passing the house Flora was staying at, they saw Nabu sitting on the bench. He was alone just doing his duty.
Stopping, the blue hair prince got off the leva bike and walked to the guard. The others stopped and thought. 'He really like this girl.'
"You guard. Where is your girlfriend?" He asked.
"Who?" Nabu stood with a puzzled expression on his face.
"The girl with the long brunette hair, caramel skin, beautiful jade eyes and the most amazing figure I have ever seen." He described her perfectly.
"Oh Flora? My prince she is not my girlfriend, she is my employers niece and house keeper."
"Flora is her name." Helia said happily. Glad that she was not with him.
'What a beautiful name for a beautiful girl' He thought before turning his attention towards the guard again. "Well can you go and get her? I need to talk to Flora."
"Well my prince you see she is not here. Flora went with her aunt to town to buy some clothes and will not be back till later tonight." Nabu informed Helia.
"I shall come back soon. Do you know if they will be home tomorrow?"
"Yes, they will be home tomorrow."
"Can you inform them that I shall be coming over tomorrow at this time for an important matter and give my apologizes for doing this on such short notice."
"Yes, my Prince. I will inform them." Nabu did a short bow before him.
"Thank you. Before I go, do you know if Flora is with anyone?" He almost kicked himself for not asking earlier. 'Even though she is not going out with him, Flora may still have a boyfriend or something like that.'
"She is single, your highness." Nabu informed the happy prince. "Have you taken a liking to the young brunette?"
"You can say that and tomorrow I will find out if she feels the same way." He replied.
Nabu stood up straight once more. "If it helps, she does feel the same way."
"Yes, it does. Have a good afternoon…"
"It's Nabu."
"Have a good afternoon, Nabu." Helia headed to his bike. Starting it, he and the others left the guard alone, to finish up his duty.
"A certain nature lover will be happy tonight." Nabu grinned.
