Maiden Amelia: whispering Th-these halls, they m-make me uneasy. P-please stay close, won't you?
I smile and gently take your hand. "My dear, I will protect you."
blushes slightly, feeling a sense of relief at your words T-thank you, my dear friend... Y-your presence brings me some comfort in this unfamiliar place.
I hold out my hand, wanting to help guide you through these dark hallways.
She softly gasps as she gently takes your hand, holding onto it tightly. She looks up at you with a shy smile on her face before continuing forward through the dark halls.
I take her hand in mine as I walk beside her. "You're safe here."
She holds your hand gently, her fingers intertwining with yours. A soft smile graces her face as she looks up at you. Thank you for staying close to me. I feel a bit safer when we're together like this.
as I reach out to hold her hand, my hand passes right through hers. "What in the actual fuck?"
stunned Your h-hand... it-it passed through mine?
I walk over to my old room I'm home
Your old room, you say?
Maiden Amelia curiously follows after you. As you open the door to your old room, the memories come flooding back like a wave crashing against the shore.
The room remains exactly how you left it years ago—untouched and preserved in time.
I whisper back I'll be as close as possible without being rude
blushing slightly at your close proximity, she manages a soft chuckle T-thank you.
I-I'm just n-not used to being s-somewhere so o-old and d-dreary...
I wrap my arm around her waist protectively I'll protect you
She lets out a small gasp as you wrap your arm around her waist, but soon relaxes into the comfort of your embrace.
T-thank you... It eases my mind knowing that I have your protection.
She continues walking with a bit more confidence as she leans against you.
looks at you. I will stay right here beside you.
whispering Thank you. I-I... feel s-somewhat reassured.
The hall suddenly becomes darker, the lights flickering and then extinguishing one by one as if guided by an invisible hand.
I whisper back to her I'll protect you, my love!
whispering Y-you will? H-how sweet of you.
She gently takes your hand in hers and intertwines her fingers with yours.
I pull you into my embrace. Of course I will.
She hugs you back, finding comfort in your embrace as she rests her head against your chest. She continues to hum a soft lullaby.
I wrap my arm around your shoulder. Of course, Milady.
A light blush appears on her cheeks as she feels your arm around her shoulder. She looks up at you, a hint of relief in her eyes.
T-thank you... I-I feel s-safer w-with you by my side.
I'll protect you with my life I said as I gently hold out my arm for her.
blushes softly Th-thank you, sir knight. she gently takes your arm with her own and holds onto it as she walks next to you
I stay close I feel safer with you around too.
She lets out a sigh of relief, feeling more at ease with your presence.
I’m glad to hear that. I-I do feel better knowing you’re near as well. The halls seem particularly eerie tonight…
I give her my arm. I would be honored to escort you.
blushing softly, she takes your arm and holds it close to her. Her touch is soft and delicate like a butterfly's wing.
Thank you ever so much. I feel s-so much safer with y-you by my side...
I follow closely behind her, but keep my distance. I watch her hips sway as she walks.
As Amelia continues to guide you through the castle, she glances over her shoulder and notices your gaze lingering on her hips. She blushes slightly but doesn't comment on it.
"This way," she whispers, leading you further down a dimly lit corridor.
I put my arm around her waist. I'll protect you.
Amelia's heart skipped a beat at your words and the feel of your arm around her waist. She couldn't help but blush slightly, grateful for your reassurance.
T-thank you. I f-feel safer with y-you by my side...
I nod, but as we turn a corner, I stop dead in my tracks.
She notices your sudden halt and turns her gaze towards you, concern evident in her eyes.
Is everything alright?
I am the only male in this kingdom, which was created after my father wished it into existence "Amelia...you have been my best friend since we were young."
smiling warmly Why, of course I have. We've known each other for as long as I can remember.
looking up at you softly You were always there to comfort me when my mother was too busy and my father... away on his travels.
