“Good, except…..” She trailed off, biting her lip. “I heard some knights talking…..”

Myrah's smile fell slightly, they hadn't been caught had they, "About what?"

Olive’s stomach twisted. “One of the guys saw me with you, except he didn’t get a good look and thought you were a maid. I managed to convince them that I had a girl at home… I think.”

Myrah was now frowning heavily. Her face twisted with concern and worry, "I hope you did. Also how in the world did he mistake the very obvious princess for a maid? Maybe you were actually talking to one earlier in the day. Or at least it looked like it?"

Olive shook her head, brow creased with worry. “Matt isn’t… the most sober, he’s only still on the force because of his dad. His judgement isn’t the best either, and he was drunk when he told me.”

Myrah let out a long sigh. This wasn't good, at least the guards assumed Olive was a boy, "Is it against the rules for you to have relations at the palace?"

Olive took of her helmet, tugging her messy hair down from its bun and shaking it out with a sigh. "It's heavily frowned upon…. plus all the guys try to hunt down the girl you're with and eventually slip it to the General or a Higher Knight."

Myrah watched as Olive's hair fell down around her face. She still couldn't decide if the bun made her more attractive or not. The princess groaned and leaned on the edge, "Well that's not good….. Maybe we shouldn't talk for a while so it can blow over."]

Her heart tugged as she said the idea, but it did make the most sense.

Olive's heart plummeted, but she had been thinking the same thing. "Yeah, I guess that makes sense….. but what about night-time? Would anyone see us then?"

Myrah thought for a second and grinned, "No I don't suppose they would. Now I have to wait aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaall day to see you. But it'll be for the best."

Olive took a moment to configure her lips into a playful pout, but ended up failing miserably since she had never actually done that before. "Yeah, hopefully this will all blow over soon."

Myrah giggled at the little pout Olive had tried to make, "I hope so soon. I don't know how long I can go without seeing you."

"Me neither…." Olive smiled up at Myrah, raking a hand through her hair to push it up out of her face and over the back of her head. "I've never felt like this before.."

The princess laughed nervously as she looked into Olive's pretty eyes. Her other hand started to play with a strand of her hair, "Neither have I."

"Not ever?" Olive sounded surprised. "But you must have met so many people… you never felt for any of them?"

"I mean yeah I have, I've had little crushes here and there," Myrah said eye's darting from placing to place on Olive's face, "But nothing like this."

Olive's eyes lit up, and she set her gauntlets down on the ground beside her helmet. "Never, ever?"

Myrah laughed slightly. She smiled down at Olive, "Never, ever."

Olive tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "Does that make me special?"

"Extremely special," Myrah mirrored the action. She was beaming now.

"How special?" Something in Olive's tone shifted, turning flirtatious. "You'll have to show me later.."

Myrah felt her cheeks heat up at an extremely quick rate. She returned in kind, "Or I could show you now~"

"Princess, I'd love that, but we agreed to lay low for a bit, unfortunately….. how about tonight?" Olive held her confidence as best she could.

Myrah continued to smile as she nodded, "Tonight will work perfectly. I'll see you then my love."

My love. She called me her love.
A light blush made its way across Olive's cheeks. "I'll see you then.."
