To Protect Everything (Ghostxtiger and R[D])

[Romantic[Dream]]

"Uh well..." Alex had to think on that. What was there to say? The knight tried to scratch at the back of the head, but the helmet was in the way. "L-Like what?"

 

[Ghostxtiger]

Aida stayed silent as she thought about what she wanted to know about the knight"Well...how old are you?"she said,deciding to start with the easiest question.

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

"I'm nineteen, Princess." Alex was definitely young. At least younger than the princess, which wasn't usually the case.

 

[Ghostxtiger]

"I see"Aida said,surprised at the knights age."Do you have any siblings"she asked,continuing with the easy questions

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

"No... I'm an only child. My father passed away a few years after I was born." Alex was okay with father's death. It happened a long time ago. Long enough to get over it.

 

[Ghostxtiger]

"Oh...my apologies for saying anything"Aida said,feeling guilty for bringing it up.She was about to ask another question but decided not since she didn't think it was any of her concern.

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

"It's fine. I was quite young." Alex shrugged lightly, just because it was so long in the past.

 

[Ghostxtiger]

Aida just nodded then stayed silent for a moment,wondering if she had a right to ask the knight the next question"S-Sir Alex?"she said,deciding to just ask

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

"Yes, princess?" Alex was attentive, sensing the slight distress in the princess' voice.

 

[Ghostxtiger]

"Do you...have someone...you love"Aida said,a shade of light pink spreads along her cheeks

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

"Sadly, I do not. Love has escaped me. What about you princess? Is there anyone that you desire?"

 

[Ghostxtiger]

"N-No...I have never felt like I could love anyone"Aida said as she looked at the ground,considering to give up completely on love.

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

"Princess..." Alex walked over and held her shoulders gently, trying to be as nice as possible. "Please don't give up on love. If you do, I'd be sad. Because then you'd be sad. I like it much mroe when you're happy."

 

[Ghostxtiger]

Aida looked up at the knight as she blushed lightly"O-Ok"was all that she could say.At that moment her stomach began to rumble.She was rather hungry since she barely ate her breakfast.

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

Even Alex hear the rumble. "Hey! Hurry and get a meal going! The princess didn't eat much!" Alex called out to the others, who began to scramble for a meal.

 

[Ghostxtiger]

Aida blushed deeply"I'm sorry.I just didn't eat much this morning"she said as she averted her gaze from the knight.

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

"It is fine, Princess." Alex laughed a tiny bit. "We have plenty of food."

 

[Ghostxtiger]

Aida giggled as she smiled up at the knight,a shade of pink still on her cheeks then went back to sit in the field while she waited for the food to be done.

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

The food was made quite hastily and served to the princess to eat. Alex even got some, and removed the helmet in order to eat. unfortunately, orders bound the knight to look around and keep an eye out for threats. But it was still nice to be out of the helmet.

 

[Ghostxtiger]

Aida sat in the field as she ate and stared at Sir Alex,admiring his features since the knight took of his helmet.She began to notice the almost female-like features in the knights face.

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

Alex finished up quickly, but neglected to put the helmet back on. Fresh air! Alex would rather have that than a stuff old helmet anyday.

 

[Ghostxtiger]

Aida finished then went back to the knight.She took the flower that she gave Sir Alex before and placed it carefully in his hair.

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

Alex blushed a little. If that wasn't the most humiliating thing the the world for a man, then the knight didn't know what was. There were some snickers coming from the guards.

 

[Ghostxtiger]

Aida just giggled as she saw the knight blush"I think it looks good on you"she said,smiling shyly

 

[Romantic[Dream]]

"Yes, I dare say you've made me a very pretty girl." Alex snickered a little too. Oh well, the damage had been done. Not like the knight couldn't take all the other guards on and win.
