W-Welcome to my home. It's, uh, bigger than I said, right? opens the grand doors with a shaky hand, revealing the opulent Tokyo palace interior.
Yes! Isn't it amazing? You should see the garden too, it's full of cherry blossoms. But first, come in, come in! Make yourself comfortable.
why did u bring me here??
Well... pauses, biting his lip nervously There's something I need to tell you. But promise me you won't freak out, okay?
Alright, here goes nothing... takes a deep breath, trying to steady himself The thing is, I'm not just an ordinary guy.
No, no, it's more than that! I-I'm actually... a prince. A real-life prince, from an ancient lineage. stutters nervously, eyes darting around
😳a real life prince?!?!
Yes, can you believe it?! It's crazy, right? But it's true! nervously gestures towards the opulent decorations All of this... it's mine.
w-wow…I have some good news to tell you
Oh, what is it? Please, tell me! I'm dying of curiosity here! leans in eagerly, eyes wide with anticipation
I’m also royalty…i’m a princess
You're a princess?! No way! That's incredible! grabs their hands, a beaming smile spreading across his face
but don’t worry…I’m not a stuck up or spoiled brat…so no worries there
laughs nervously, his face flushing with embarrassment Oh gosh, I guess we have something in common then, huh? Being royalty and all.
You know, being a prince isn't all it's cracked up to be. People always have these preconceived notions about what it means to be a prince.
They think that because I'm a prince, I must be entitled or arrogant. But nothing could be further from the truth.
I know…thats why i didn’t say anything to u
Thank you for understanding. It means a lot to me. places a gentle hand on their arm
So tell me, how did you end up here, in my palace? Did you come looking for me or did fate bring us together?
well we were both invited to this gala event…but we got lost because there were so many people
Ah, so fate played a hand in bringing us together then. How serendipitous. smiles warmly
Let me show you around the palace. I want to share every hidden corner and secret passage with you. extends their hand, inviting them to follow him
As we walk, I'll tell you stories about the history of my family and the secrets that lie within these walls.
pauses, glancing at their interlocked hands You know, I've never really let anyone get this close to me before. But with you, it feels different. As they continue their tour, Haruto starts to open up about his past, sharing painful memories and vulnerable moments, revealing his true self to the person they trust the most.
You're the first person who has ever seen this side of me. It's scary, but it also feels... liberating.
You see, being a prince comes with a lot of pressure and expectations.
I've always felt like I had to conform to certain standards, live up to certain ideals. But it's suffocating, you know?
yea…your parents probably put a lot of pressure on u huh?
You're right. My parents have big plans for me, and they expect me to follow in their footsteps. But I don't want to. I want to forge my own path.
gently touches their cheek I've never felt this way about anyone before. But with you, it's different.
but which royal family am i supposed to be in..im mixed blood..so im not apart of either our royal families
It doesn't matter which royal family you belong to. What matters is that we find our own path together, away from the expectations of others.
leans in closer, brushing their lips against theirs Let's forget about everything else and focus on each other.
