A few hours earlier...
Amanda's P.O.V.
I was walking from the canal club to my house when my phone rang. I answered it and heard the frantic voice of Alex's sister on the other end. "Amanda, Kuru is at my house. He made me leave so he could tell my parents about Alex. I don't know what happened to her. Please, meet me at the park in five minutes?" She asks, obviously trying to hold in tears. "Of course. See you in a few." I answered. Then she hung up. Poor dear; why won't you tell her, Kuru? I walked to the park and found Zoey sitting on a bench, crying softly. I sit down beside her and give her a side-hug and a tissue. "I do care about my sister, you know. I do want to know if she is okay." Said Zoey quietly. "I know you do." I said with a soft smile, "And I will tell you. Alex was hurt very badly by a dreadfully awful man. She is alright though. J.B., Taylor, Kuru, and I have been taking care of her. She couldn't come home because it wasn't safe. I'm sorry that you were worried." I explained to the 16 year old. "Can I see her?" She asked. "I think so. Let me check with Kuru, alright?" I replied, trying to give her hope. "Okay." She said as she wiped her tears away. "Go get a juice and I'll call you when you can come see her." I said. She nodded and left the bench. Poor thing! So worried! I'll have to tell Alex about this. Then she'll know that her sister really does care about her. I slowly walked back to the warehouse. Alex is probably being smothered by Kuru's attention. Apparently he didn't come back last night, and Alex got really worried, so she'll probably smother him too. Eventually, I reach the warehouse. Inside, I see a sight I never thought I'd see- Kuru and Alex in the same bed. And they were sleeping. They're probably tired. I guess I'll give them some privacy and let them rest. I'll come back in a few hours. Those two are so cute together. I can't wait till they get together. I mean, they obviously love each other. When they get together, they'll be happy and stop trying to make each other jealous. They're both so sweet and caring. Kuru would make a great king someday.

Present time.
Kuru's P.O.V.
Standing before me was the one and only, Amanda Tucci. And I am in bed with Alex. No, scratch that. I am in bed with the PRINCESS! I. Am. So. Dead. "Amanda! Uh-I-Um-" I began. But she cut me off. "It's fine Kuru. It's just that Zoey wants to see her sister." Said Amanda, giggling. "Okay. Send her up. I'll wake Alex." I replied. "Okay. If you're sure you can handle yourself. I'll be right back." She said in a teasing tone. "Very funny." I said as she left. That girl! When will she learn? I shook Alex's arm, trying to wake her up. "Alex, Ale, you need to wake up." I whispered to her. She didn't wake up. Then I had an idea. I leaned over and kissed her cheek. It was a small kiss, but it was enough. Electricity shot through her body, and she sat upright. "Kuru? What happened? Oh! I'm sorry!" She said as she realised that she had been sleeping in the same bed as me. "It's alright, princess." I replied in a down-cast tone. She looked guilt-stricken, and I decided to end the charade. I laughed. "Alex! It's okay. I was just messing with you." She looked shocked and punched my arm.
