AKIRA
"Aaron are you okay?" I asked nervously seeing the wat he acted and looked at me.
"I saw you and Prince Arjun walking into an empty room. What was that about?" He asked and at first I was relieved it was just that.
Then I remembered, he shouldn't have seen us going into an empty room alone. That would cause troubles.
"Aaron something came up, and we had to talk about it." I muttered.
"In an empty room? With him looking around like he had a bad intention? Seriously Akira. Are you going to keep this from me?" He asked and I heaved.
"Aaron it was something we couldn't discuss in front of anyone. We had to go there. I swear nothing happened." I said and he nodded.
"I believe you, but I need to know why you both went into that empty room, because I think you are in trouble." He said and my heart skipped.
"What? What are you talking about? Aaron what is going on?" I stammered in fear looking right into his eyes.
"I saw Princess Maya spying on you two when you were in the room. She saw when you two walked in. She wanted to eavesdrop and then I showed up and she walked away before hearing anything." He explained.
"What? oh No! That can't happen. Oh my God." I said in tears holding my mouth with my palm.
"Now you see you are in deep shit. And I am scared because it doesn't look good. It was like she saw an evidence against you, to get rid of you totally." He said and the tears rolled down uncontrollably.
"I need to tell Prince Arjun! He needs to do something. He needs to shut her up! King Maeko can't hear about this. I won't last the night." I mumbled in tears.
"No Akira. You can't go to him again. You can't be seen with him again, don't you get it! Your life is on the hook now. You are breathing now because Princess Maya hasn't gotten to the King." He said and I began to shiver.
His words were so scary and it was like I was going to pee on myself.
"So what do I do now? I can't die Aaron." I said in tears.
"You won't die. But I need to talk to Prince Arjun myself. For now, stay as far as possible from him. I hope he can talk her out of changing her mind. Cos you and I know she hates you and would do anything to eliminate you." He rapped.
"That means Prince Arjun can't do anything. I am dead." I mumbled bursting into more tears.
"No! She loves the prince. He would find a way." He said holding my hand and i nodded.
"Please go tell him now. Thank you so much Aaron." I said really wanting to hug him but I knew how risky that is too.
"You are my friend Akira. I would never let anything bad happen to you. Go back to the room, say your meeting with Prince Arjun to no one. I will handle this." He said and I nodded quickly.
"Okay. I love you Aaron, thank you for this." I said and he smiled faintly.
I walked to the room and when I got inside I saw Vanna and Mei staring at me again.
"Please don't ask." I said laying on the bed.
"What's going on with you? You are keeping secrets and that's unlike you Akira. Are you really okay?" Vanna asked.
"I am fine!" I yelled Registrating shock into them. The word "Death" couldn't stop ringing in my head and that also registered fear inside of me.
ARJUN
After I left Hana's chamber,I headed to my room thinking about Akira. Our kiss, the dream as a whole.
Telling father as soon as possible is the solution, but what if that is resolved? We may never be able to kiss again.
Maybe this is our only shot. I was shot in the dream, what if I didn't survive, that would be our first and last kiss.
And if this doesn't happen at all by us preventing it...
There was a knock on the door which interrupted my thinking totally. I held my head in my hands and walked to the door. I breathed out before reaching for the door knob.
I opened the door, and then I saw Maya at the door step.
"What do you want?" I asked coldly. I ain't in the mood for her drama at all.
"Are we fighting?" She asked pushing me from the way slightly and walking in. I sighed and turned to face her.
"What do you want? Get out." I said and then she bursted into laughter. I furrowed my brows looking at her.
I wondered why she was laughing.
"You want me to get out, fine! I will. But just know I am heading to the King immediately." She said swaying her phone in the air and I scoffed.
"And why should I care?" I asked folding my arms.
"Maybe because your dear Akira won't last the night before he heads is fed to the dogs." She said walking towards me, heading to the door.
"Wait! What? What are you talking about?" I asked shutting the door and standing right in front of her.
" You know exactly what I mean Arjun. So can you please excuse me? I need to ask if meeting with a maid with the opposite sex in an empty room is part of the rules, since we go by rules now." She said and my eyes widened.
"So are you trying to threaten me?" I asked fearfully,though I kept a straight face.
"Threaten you? This is no threat. I am doing exactly what I said." She said and I laughed.
"You don't even have proof. Who on Earth would believe your lame story?" I asked hoping she didn't have proof.
"When they see it with their eyes, they would believe. Seeing is believing right." She said and my eyes widened.
I looked at her phone that was with her and then my brain told me she either took pictures when she saw us or recorded a video.
"So you are really going to go through all this stress for an ordinary maid?" I asked and she looked at me in confusion.
"What do you mean?" She asked.
"You are giving importance to whom doesn't serve it at all. You are a beautiful princess and you want this navie maid to get your attention?" I asked and she furrowed her brows.
"That maid is getting your attention." She stated and I laughed.
"I did that to see if you really loved me. I wanted to know how you would react when you know I am not giving you the attention you want." I said and I began to walk to her.
She looked at me in shock and began to move back too.
"Why are you saying this to me?" She asked and I smiled seductively.
"I don't love or like Akira Maya. It's you i want. All those was just an act,to see if you would get angry or not." I said and her back hit the wall in no time.
"So you don't like her at all?" She asked and I smiled moving my face to hers and planting a kiss on her lips.
"God Forbid I like a miserable maid over a beautiful and smart Princess like you Maya." I whispered against her lips and she shivered shutting my eyes.
"You don't know how long I have waited to hear you say this words." She said and I took her lower lip in mine again.
"Now you know. So get rid of that picture or video. It's a waste of time." I said and she smiled nodding.
She reached for her phone and deleted the video right in front of me.
"That's my baby girl. Hope no one knows about this?" I asked and she shook her head.
"Not yet." She said blushing seriously and I smiled.
"Good." I said moving back.
"Can I have another kiss?" She asked and I nodded swallowing hard.
"Sure."
