(lol hey!)

Ari took a little, and Lucien took some as well. "Thanks, love." Lucien said, wrapping an arm around Aki's shoulders.

(How are you, lol)

Aki nods and leans into Lucien happily, "Of course, darling." He murmured softly. This was actually quite nice, nothing like the night where Lucien had to choose a potential wife.

(good, you?)

Lucien smile again, kissing Aki's cheek happily. "I love you." he said quietly.

(Good. Finally getting back into the swing.)

"I love you too, darling." He whispers, pressing a soft kiss to his shoulder. Subtle, but loving.

(that's good!)

He smiled happily, taking another bite of his food and holding onto Aki.

Aki nuzzled into his side and smiled softly, relaxing a little more. He finished off his food, taking Lucien's hand and shutting his eyes as he let the food settle.

He held Aki's hand and started talking quietly with Ari and Enrique.

Aki didn't say anything, keeping his mouth firmly shut. He didn't want to speak in fear of the king overhearing, or him being snapped at for saying something insensitive.

As the evening progressed, Ari and Enrique eventually moved off to mingle with some of the other nobles.

Aki watched them go, a small smile on his lips. It was nice that they hadn't really had any interruptions, and he was relieved that the evening was going well. However, as he looked around, he realized how plain he looked to everyone else. Sure, his magician's robes were well crafted… but…

Lucien kissed his cheek softly. "I love you." he whispered in Aki's ear.

Aki blushed a little and smiled, kissing the corner of his lips. "I love you too." He murmured softly. "Do you want to go outside? It feels a bit warm in here."

He hummed for a bit. "Alright." he took Aki's arm and started weaving through the crowd.

Aki walked beside him, humming happily to himself. He leaned against Lucien as they walked, his ears flicking back and forth slightly.

Lucien led him from the ballroom, out into one of the nearby courtyards. "Better?"

He nods and hums softly in content. "So much better. Thank you, love." He murmured softly. He glanced at Lucien and leaned up, gently kissing him on the lips.

He kissed him back softly, wrapping an arm around Aki. "You're welciome." he murmured.

He giggles quietly before pressing a kiss to his chest and cuddling into him. "It felt a little to crowded in there." He murmured softly. "Your cousin and his fiance are really sweet."

He smiled. "They are, yeah. I hadn't met Ari before, but Enrique is my favorite cousin." He chuckled softly.

He smiled a little, "Well, I like both of them." He murmured quietly and kissed his cheek. "I love you so much, my prince." he whispers.

He smiled back. "I love you too, darling." He replied.

He giggles a little at the nickname. "I love it when you call me that. It just sounds so endearing." He murmured softly. "I love you so much…"

He kissed Aki's cheek. "Shall I call you tht more, then?"

"If you'd like to love." He murmured softly. He curled in closer to Lucien, shutting his eyes in content.

He smiled happily. "Yeah, alright." He replied, holding Aki close.
