More Than A Lifetime (Kyrisse x Neno 1445)

Alessandra blinked as he hesitated to continue their conversation. She felt disappointed as he even asked her to leave. ''I will stay if you need me. I am still not comfortable enough leaving you yet.''She said softly as she cleared her throat. ''Or do you really wish for me to go?'' She asked and her tone held some underlying sense of defeat. She knew the kiss was a mistake-- She knew she wasn't supposed to get so close to her Prince.

Alessandra felt anger once again like she had a few months ago. ''You should never settle for that! I-I-I am sure you can find someone that you can actually love and will also strengthen your kingdom. You just need to try--Prince Adrian you don't deserve just losing everything for your crown.'' She argued as she stepped closer to him, uncontrollably her eyes drifted lips.

At the mention of her tears, she averted her eyes to the floor. She never and hoped to never cry in front of him, or anyone in that case. Her head shot up again in surprise as he sighed and actually let her into his thoughts. She blinked as she set the box aside and walked closer to him. ''Do you not like her though?'' She asked as she looked up at him, in a way, she hoped he didn't, yet she hoped he did so he could be marrying someone he actually liked.

At Hye Jin's words, Alessandra was greatly taken back; Her eyes widened as they filled with tears. Why did she dislike her so much? Just for being a handmaiden, or rather Adrian's handmaiden. Their kiss flashed through her head as her cheeks warmed up. It must have been a mistake. Adrian must have just needed a different kind of care that neither could Alessandra offer to him nor she would. Her eyes widened even more as Adrian actually came to her defense, never in a million years would she have imagined he would do so. She felt slightly relieved as he embarrassed Hye Jin. Hadn't he noticed she was almost all the time like that?

She took the box and watched him in disbelief as he simply closed the door.

''You shouldn't have done so--She is your future Queen. I am just your handmaiden. I can handle a word or two.'' She said, in a way she was thanking him, while just telling him that it was not his responsibility to stand up for her, especially not in front of his future wife. It would only cause trouble.

Alessandra's mind was blank, too blank as she kissed the man she served so feverishly. Suddenly all sense came back to her as the door knocked not once but twice. She abruptly stepped away from the Prince and stared up at him with eyes that held fear and confusion. Was he going to send her away? Was he not going to let her be around him anymore? Did she make a mistake?

Of course you did. You kissed the crown prince. You idiot. You should have never let the overwhelming feelings get to you. She thought as he walked away from her. She ran a hand through her hair and breathed out softly, trying to calm down, but her heart was racing so quickly she thought it would suddenly stop.

A few moments later, she stepped out to find it was Hye Jin handing Adrian the box. She blinked and smiled at Hye Jin, a tight smile as she stayed in the back.

Alessandra looked up at Adrian as he grabbed her hand, but she had no time to react as he pulled her closer to him, so close that almost their bodies touched, Alessandra gasped but was interrupted by Adrian's lips on hers. Her eyes widened as blood quickly rushed to her cheeks. She blinked slightly. She didn't move, didn't pull back-- She liked it. She came to the realization that she really did like it. Her hands slowly found their way to grab his pajama slightly; She didn't know what she was doing, but in no time she was kissing him back-- She had never kissed anyone before, but as her lips moved against his, she was kissing him.

Alessandra was almost falling asleep after such a long day, but at the sound of the door opening, she straightened up. She scanned the Prince carefully, wishing she could just fix his hair for him. She blushed as she caught herself thinking of such a thing. She shook her head and followed behind the prince.

"You shouldn't step out in the cold air while your hair is still wet your majesty." She commented softly as she stood beside him.

Alessandra felt disappointment rush through her even more. Perfect. She nodded slightly and followed closely behind. The pain was weird for her, why was she so upset? She knew that Prince Adrian wouldn't stay in need of her for too long. She knew he would get other female company-- She knew she was nothing special to Adrian. But why did he say he wouldn't let go of her? Why did he get her a gift for just completing her job.

She shook her head and thoughts as Adrian walked into the bathroom, closing the door behind him. She blinked a few times, confused that he didn't ask her to get his bath ready for him. She felt down-- Did she do something wrong? She slowly took a seat in her usual chair, pulling her legs close to her.

Alessandra had grown tired of standing around, so she had come in and out of the dining hall a few times. She set the gift Adam had given her in her room and had returned as Adam narrated what had happened with Adrian few months ago. She sighed a sigh of relief, glad that her Prince was now fully healed as he claimed. As Hye Jin offered to tend to his health, Alessandra felt anger boil through his-- That was her duty, her work. She rolled her eyes as she evn offered to pass by his room later. Didn't she know that was inappropriate for first day meetings?

Alessandra was glad as Adrian stood up to take his leave. She bowed to Adam
and Hye Jin before following closely behind Adrian, when they were surely out of hearing distance, she smiled at her prince.

"What do your majesty think about your future Queen?" She asked in a friendly tone with an underlying tone of disappointment, knowing his answer was most likely positive.

Alessandra opened her mouth to speak but relunctantly closed it again as she glanced at the gift. "Thank you." She mumbled and took a deep bow to Adam before walking away from the table and closer to where Henry stood.
