Scarlet blinked, her face becoming a a mask in which she hid her emotions behind. She bowed deeply to Willow. “Your majesty.”

Cade chuckled. Oh no, I am not bowing to Willow.

"Don't do that." Willow came over, the guard keeping an arm on her shoulder. "I am still your friend." she frowned, "Unless you hate me."

Scarlet nudged him sharply. “Bow too your Queen, Cade.”

"Don't do that." Willow came over, the guard keeping an arm on her shoulder. "I am still your friend." she frowned, "Unless you hate me."

“Of course we don’t hate you, Willow. Why would you think that?”

"I'm queen." she traced her fingers onto a nearby table, collecting dust. "I stole the throne from you. I already know that Cade doesn't like me. I have proof." she bit back tears, "Why else would he tell me that my house, the house Abasi and I grew up in, the house we loved, sucks? Why else would he be searching through the cabinets as if my house belonged to him?" Willow wiped away a tear and smiled, "What I'm trying to say is that I understand ifyou don't like me."

Shoot…. He shook his head. "Willow I….I had no idea. I thought you hated me."

"I hate no one." Willow smiled and waved the guard off, making him step back. She walked towards Cade and gave him a hug.

He stumbled back a little, awkwardly hugging her back. "Oh..uh…thanks? For the hug, I mean…"

Willow nodded and stepped back, the guard immediately went back to her side, taking her hand.

Cade was unsure how to respond. Instead, he looked around the room again in awe.

“Willow, we dint hate you. And to be honest, I’m relieved that you took the throne. I hate the idea of being Wueen.”

"Will you stay at the palace with me and Chelsea?" Willow asked, shooing the guard away.

“Of course, Willow. As long as Harper and Quinn are permitted to stay as well,that is.”

Is she asking me? Cade sighed. "I….well I'll only stay if my family can. And if I can convince them."

"All of you are invited." Willow threw up her arms, accidentally smacking the guard in the face. Frantically apologizing, Willow plopped a mint into his hand as he tried to make her stand back.
"I'm fine."
"BUT I SMACKED YOU."

Cade laughed a little, feeling slightly more comfortable in this gigantic castle.
(I have to go soon so I might disappear suddenly)

Scarlet faltered watching this exchange. It looked as if Willow had regained her sanity. “You majes-Willow. There’s a place in the gardens that I would like to claim as my own private space it’s— it’s a burial place if my fiancé. May I claim the rights and responsibilities of Eldest Princess, second to you?”

"Of course," Willow said, still obsessing over the guard's injury. He shook his head, green eyes flashing.
"Please, your majesty, I'm fine."

Uh oh. Am I supposed to learn all this crappy royal gibberish? He sighed. God, I hope not.

Willow helped him up and patted his head. "Of course, guard. What's your name?"
He shook his head, "That is of no importance to you, my queen."
"Seriously dude, what is it?"
"Kano." he bowed, blond hair covering his face.
