As the leva bike stopped in front of Flora's house, Helia came off it and walked over to Nabu. "Is Flora here?"
"Yes, my Prince. She is right inside, let me get her." Nabu said while going inside the house.
After a few minutes Flora's uncle and aunt came out to greet the young prince. Helia explained. "I just want to get to know her and be friends with her."
Saladin said "She is just a house girl. If you want female friends, come back when my four daughters return from their studies aboard."
Helia looked angry at the offer."I just want to talk to her. Flora seems like a very special person and my feelings are telling me that I need to know more about her."
"As you wish my prince, but do not hurt her." Faragonda answered.
Escorting him inside the house, Helia walked into the living room to see Flora sitting on the sofa in a pink mini skirt and green blouse.
"We will leave you two alone." Saladin mentioned to the two young adults. "If any of you want us, we will be in the other room."
"Why did you run away from me last time?" Helia asked once the elderly couple left the room.
"I thought I did something wrong and that you were going to arrest me." Flora replied.
"You're as beautiful as a queen." He stated, taking a seat beside her.
The brunette blushed."I am not that beautiful."
"You have a natural beauty unlike any other girl I have ever met. You don't need make up or fake things for the world to see that your drop dead gorgeous."
They talked for hours about themselves before night came. Flora followed Helia outside to his leva bike.
Getting onto his bike, Helia mentioned to Flora. "You are very intelligent and seem to have a natural yearn for knowledge. Each day I will bring a book for you to read and help tutor you little by little."
He kissed her cheek.
"Thank you Prince." She blushed because of the kiss.
"Please call me Helia."
"Helia." Flora said before walking back inside.
Helia placed the helmet over his head and thought as he rode off 'I am in love.'
For the next seven days the family became more comfortable with Helia coming over and he even admitted to the uncle and aunt that he had fallen in love with Flora. The blue hair male didn't want to mention it to the nature loving brunette as yet. He didn't want to ruin what they had now even though there were a few signs that she returned his feelings.
Sitting in the living room, the young pair talked.
"Flora, my parents are coming back tomorrow. I would like it if you could follow me to the airport to meet them." He said.
"Sure, why not?" Flora happily replied. "I would like to meet your parents."
"I am glad." Helia kissed her hand.
The next day Helia drove up to Flora's house five in the morning with the Specialist and a car.
Flora came out wearing a pink and green mini dress with her hair caught up in a high ponytail.
"You look amazing as always." He handed her a helmet.
"Thank you." Flora gladly took it. Putting it on, she hopped onto the bike before wrapped her arms around his waist.
Driving off, the other looked at each other and agreed. "He is hooked."
As they arrived at the airport to pick up Helia's parents they saw the king and queen waiting impatiently.
"Helia! Where heck have you been?!" His mother yelled.
Walking towards them with Flora by his side, he answered. "I am sorry for been late. I had to pick up someone important to me."
"Who is this girl?" The king asked.
"Her name is Flora and she is a very special friend of mine." He replied.
"She looks like a beggar in that outfit!" The queen said in disgust.
"Dear, don't be so rude." He scolded his wife. "It is so nice to meet you." His father said in a nice tone as he held out his hand.
"It is a pleasure to meet you, my King and Queen." Flora responded taking his hand to shake it.
The queen looked at Flora in angry and wanted her gone.
At the palace
As they sat around the large dinner table the queen looked at Flora then Helia who was sitting next to her and asked. "Why is this thing eating around the table with the royals of Linepha? Leave us alone you hood rat!"
Flora saw the evil glare been given to her. "I shall leave then."
Helia stood up ready to defend his love only to be cut off when his mother said. "Little girl, you are not moving fast enough."
Flora ran off, hurt by the words of the queen.
Helia hissed. "Mother, you need to accept that Flora is a part of my life now and forever."
"No, I do not. You are going to marry someone of high society not a person who looks like a homeless person."
"I love her and like it or not she will be your daughter in law and future queen to the throne." Helia ran off to find her.
Looking around for a while, he found her in the garden. Her eyes were red from all the crying.
As the bike stopped in front of her house, Helia said "Flora don't listen to my parents I care about you too much."
She looked up into his eyes and said. "Helia your parents are right, we are worlds apart. You are the future king while I was born in the poorest section of the country and just moved here to live with my uncle and aunt as their housemaid. You should have nothing to do with me."
The both of them got off the bike and removed the helmets that covered their faces.
He hugged her. "I love you Flora, very much. My parents have no influence over who my heart chooses as its keeper."
"I love you too Helia." She saw him moving forward for a kiss. Flora met him halfway and their lips collided for a very heated and passionate kiss.
After two minutes they parted. Helia removed the strains of hair blocking her face while chuckling. "You must love me at lot."
"A whole lot." Flora caught him off guard with another kiss this time almost as long as the first one.
"See you later."
"My flower, I wanted to do this at the palace and in front of my parents but that went horrible wrong." He informed her.
"What are you talking about, sweetie?" She saw him trying to find something in his pocket.
"This." He got down on one knee. "Flora, I know we have only known each other for a short time but I love you more than words can describe. You are the only girl that has captured my heart and that will never change." He took out a light blue box. "Flora will you do me the honour of becoming my wife and the future Princess of Linpeha?"
"Oh my gosh." Flora was surprised by the proposal. "Yes, I will marry you."
Sliding the ring onto her finger, Helia smiled.
Getting up he wrapped his arms around her waist and began marking her neck.
"Helia I need to get inside before my uncle and aunt wakes up." She moaned.
"I know, but I don't want to leave you." He replied between kisses.
"If we continue you will give me a hickey."
"I want to mark you so everyone doesn't see the ring; they see the hickey and know you are unavailable."He stopped to see the big hickey.
"Getting possessive are we?" Flora giggled.
"I don't want another person taking away the only girl I have ever loved." Helia laughed as well.
"I love you and only you." Flora informed him.
"Flora you're the most important person to me and one day my parents will have to accept that."
"I hope your right Helia." The brunette wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Hope so too."
The two shared a short kiss before Flora headed into the house.
'She is definitely the one for me.' Helia thought as he got onto the bike and rode away.
