why am I such a mess?

Prince Theo. Gods he so annoying. I can't believe I agreed to this. But I guess I never thought I'd lose.

"Oh my gods, you're infuriating"

"Anything to get your attention." Theo said

I'm gonna kill. Help me goddess calinthian not kill the man you matched me with.

"I think my little bunny may be getting angry with me, thank you for everything Mrs. Marcy I'll be taking her to lunch now."

"Have a good time" Marcy said while cleaning up.

Theo and I walked down the stairs in silence. I was so nervous. I could feel my palms sweating. I need to slow my heart rate down it's like it's going to beat right out of my chest. I look up at the man walking to my left. He's suit jacket was so nice. The fabric was velvet?

"This place is pretty large, have you ever gotten lost in these halls?" He asked breaking the silence.

Smiling I laugh slightly. "Yeah maybe more than a few times? But I always seem to find the most interesting things when I'm lost and can't find my way" I continued, "there's this room filled with crystal colored glass, it makes a rainbow of colors on the floor. It might be a favorite place of mine"

"After lunch you think you could show me?"

"I'm surprised you can speak anything other than sarcasm" I said

"I'm surprised you can speak without biting my head off" he respond smiling down at me. Gods his smile was to die for. I don't know if I want to punch him or myself for being such a cheezeball.

"Well the sound of your voice is like fuel to my fire, careful playing with fire else you get burned"

This made him laugh so loud. It echoed through the stairwell.

Once we got to the first door, I led us to the dining hall.

"Oh I didn't mean to have lunch here, there is a spot I want to go with you too, I already asked a servant to pack us our lunch to go" he said to me.

"Oh where would that be?" Curious to know where a man whose never been here could take me.

"Are you familiar with the area?" I asked knowing the answer.

"No but I once followed a cute little animal to this place with a view" bending down to whisper in my ear "and I'd very much like to see it again, maybe even find my little bunny"

The sound of his voice made my heart flutter, it was smooth like chocolate melting in my ears.

"Is flirting the only way you know how to speak?"

"I'm also fluent in sarcasm, as you might have noticed" he responded.

I rolled my eyes at him.

"I'm hungry are we going to leave or are we just going to have good banter back and forth"

"As you wish" he jestered toward the kitchen island table. There was a basket with a bottle of wine and a blanket sticking out. I could smell the freshly baked bread in the basket.

Mmmmm… Sussia's bread. Next to Marcy she made the best bread in the palace. He grabbed the basket and then placed his hand in front of me, "lead the way my princess".
