Can't be a Coward
Time was quickly running out and with every step forward, the prince was taking me closer and closer to the doctor. If I wanted to tell him the truth, I had to do it now. That realization made me panic and I instinctively clenched my fists around his clothes. I could hear the prince’s regular heartbeat as I rested my face against his chest and closed my eyes to gather my wits together.
I can do this…
If I ran away from the truth, I would just be a coward. Although I may get lucky, and the prince may never discover the truth. However, in the event that he did, it would really be the worst if he didn’t hear it directly from me. This is my last chance to confess and tell Prince Leonard the truth.
“Prince Leonard…” I called his name softly.
“How many times do I need to tell you to call me Leo when we’re alone?” he replied before grinning down at me.
