A Blooming Love:A Prince x Prince rp between Peggy and Kies

[Burning_Roses]

Then the wind faded as did the song but the gems still sparkles and James stepped away with a short soft laugh a blush tracing across his cheeks as he ran a hand through his curls, "We should start walking back, we do have to go get fitted for our suits, because we have that dinner tonight." His face looked less than pleased with the whole "parade-us-in-front-of-nobles-cause-we're-engaged..ordeal. He sighed as he started to walk from the cave, "we can come back soon. I promise." As soon a short they began their trek back o the palace James spoke up once more, "What was your childhood like Maximilien? I mean here I am venting about my life and I've barely heard had the concern or the notion to ask about your's."He looked to the other boy with a smile, "So let me hear the tale of the great Maximilien."

Max was disappointed as the music faded and the other suggested they start heading back. He hid it well though and walked along side James as they head back to the castle. He looked over as the other spoke again and bit his lip softly as he tried to think of where to begin in answering his question. "There is no great tale of Maximilien. My life just..... happened. When I was young, I technically lived at the castle with my parents, but they were usually busy so I, and then my siblings as they came into the picture as well, spent most of my time at my grandparent's manor. It was very..... relaxed there. Still had to take lessons on 'how to be the perfect prince' but outside of those it was nice to just have fun. Run out to the stables whenever I wanted to pet or ride the horses, go down to the kitchens and bug the cooks for snacks whenever I had a craving, playing with a few of the children of nobles that lived nearby. It wasn't until I was..... maybe 12, when my parents started to keep me at the castle more so I could start learning about my responsibilities as prince, and how our country really ran. I wasn't exactly happy with it, but I did it. Everyday, all the way up to today. As I said..... there is no great tale. Plus, it doesn't help I have know idea what to tell you about....." he stated with a laugh and a shake of his head. He looked down at their feet as they continued walking forward a few steps before looking up and over at James.

James laughed softly as he stopped to look at Max a small smile on his lips as he pulled the taller man down to husband level. "Yes. There is a story of Maximilien the great. Tagged your story. I don't care if it was the most boring story or if it was the lost interesting. You are interesting and great and you're kind."James brushed a hand against Max's cheek, then he kissed his cheek with a smile playing across his lips when he let go of the taller male's shirt and he continued to walk. After a minute he turned to see Max Moreno or less standing stunned. He chuckled softly and called out with a smile, "Come on Max! We don't want to be late to the fitting! My mother will behead both of us."When Max finally began to move again James held out his hand to the other male with another short laugh, "Are my kisses that stunning?"He joked with a laugh as they walked together back over the hill toward the palace tunnels

Max didn’t even try to put up any sort of fight as he willingly crouched some to be at James’s level. He looked down and blushed at the other’s assurances, a barely there smile playing at his lips. It wasn’t like he never heard words like this, but he had a bad habit of brushing them off like he didn’t deserve them even though he appreciated them greatly. He looked up when he felt the other’s hand on his cheek but froze as it was followed by a quick kiss. He stood up when he was released, but otherwise just stood there staring after James with wide eyes and a slack jaw yet again. The mention of beheading seemed to spur him out of his daze though, and he hurried after the other prince., taking his out held hand as he reached his side. He couldn’t answer his joking question at first, simply nodding until he found his voice again. ”They really are...... just like the rest of you....” he finally replied, sounding somewhat breathless and still stunned by the kiss.

James laughed softly and he blushed his cheeks coloring red. "Really I'm not all that stunning. I'm just a prince who really doesn't want to rule."He smiled as they walked back through the tunnels into the main lobby where his mother came flying in all in a tizzy, she grabbed both their arms and pulled them towards their rooms, "Where did you two go running off to?! The tailor isn't here with the fabrics and suits!!"James looked behind his mother at Max and shook his head with an inaudible sigh as they were dragged back to their rooms where and older male stood, glasses perched on his nose, his face full of creases portraying his age. "Hello. I'm Chritoph, but please call me Toph, I will be you really tailor. Please come forward."James looked unnerved by the man in from of them but stepped forward looking at the man who began to take his measurements and then turned to anlittle Book. "Favorite color?"James blinked. "Uh. Blue or Navy."He then ushered James away with a hand and motioned to Max beckoning him with an ashes finger as he began to go through the same process, "Favorite color?"

Max disagreed but before he could say anything about it, James’s mother came flying into the room and dragged them them off while fussing about suits and a tailor. Why was it such a big deal? He was glad his own mother didn’t act like this. She would never let her children step outside without looking presentable, but at the same time Max and his siblings were free to chose what they wore and prepare for balls and whatnots however they wished. If they failed to plan ahead and have something acceptable made, they either didn’t go to the event or they were given a substitute that wasn’t as enjoyable as whatever outfit they might have come up with themselves. Max found it simple enough. He watched and listened as James went first, which caused him to be more prepared and not stutter as he stepped forward. ”Sapphire Blue or Silver,” he answered, naming his country’s colors which ironically really were his favorite colors. He didn’t have a problem with the tailor like James had, but he did glance over at the other prince from time to time.

The old man nodded and took note as he grabbed his supplies shuffling from the room but not before saying, "Come by my shop in town at 5:30. They will be done."He left and shut the door, Jameson chuckled softly which earned him a look from his mother, then she turned to Max all smiles, "So is there anything you'd like specifically prepared at the party for yourself tonight Maximilien?" James folded his arms with a sigh as he walked over to his close to and began to pretend to organize it, all the while avoiding looking at either his mother or Max. He grumbled and as his Mom was speaking she turned and cast a glare at her grumbling son, "Jameson! Quit acting like a child! We raised you better than that!"She hissed, and that was the final straw, James whirled around his gaze full of anger and sadness and a whole lot of hurt, "You RAISED me? Is that what you call leaving me while I could've died?! Is that what you call the countless nannies and teachers, the constant snide remarks on my looks or how I act?! Is that what you call me not having a say IN MY OWN MARRIAGE?!" His mother backed down her face more shocked than anything as James motioned to Max, "What if I didn't want to marry him?! What if I didn't want to spend the rest of my life with someone who i barely know just because YOU AND FATHER wanted to have deal?! You never raised me! You kept me hidden and in a corner because I acted and looked different! You nearly let me die!"He had started to wheeze as he sat down trying to catch his breath which was now coming it in short pants at this point tears running over his cheeks as he tried again and again to breath. His mother's stood, a cold ice both in her eyes and voice, "Serves you right for being so ungrateful."With that she left the room slamming the door behind her

Max had watched the other walk over to his closet but his attention was once again demanded by the queen at her question. "Oh... no. Whatever you already had planned will be fine. I wouldn't want to trouble you...." he answered with a forced polite smile. He shifted uncomfortably as she turned to scold James, though that was nothing compared to how he froze as the other prince snapped at his mother. He didn't dare say or do anything. He flinched slightly and looked down as James motioned at him, though he could see his reasoning behind not wanting to marry him. After all, his argument was the same one Max had used on his own parents and still believed in.....right? These thoughts flew out of his head though as he saw how the other was having difficulties breathing and he began stepping over to the other prince's side before his mother had even left, shocked by her heartless word. "James! Oh my god...... James what can I do?" he asked as he crouched beside the other and looked up at him with wide, worried, concern-filled eyes, placing a hand on the others knee.

James kept gasping as Max's words broke through his thoughts and he choked out, "I'll...ok...need...time." He wheezed out gripping the edge of his bed his breaths still coming out shallow, spots started appearing in his vision as he kept gasping and gasping, this was an anxiety attack. He kept forcing the air through his lungs but it didn't help. He looked up at Max and felt his stomach sink at the worried expression and he managed a small smile before the attack went into full swing tears breaking over his cheeks and he just curled up sobs wracking his entire body. Probably not helping his breathing either, he was a wreck, emotionally and physically.He just couldn't stop the tears or the shortness of his breath as he bawled still in a ball.[/size]

Max hesitated wondering if the other prince really only needed a few minutes for his breathing to even out, but then he seemed to get considerable worse and Max panicked a little on his own, despite that little smile. No, no, no..... he had promised the other he wouldn't let anything happen to him and he intended to keep that promise. He didn't know how to handle this though so he just did the first thing that came to mind. He got up onto the bed beside the other prince and wrapped his arms around him, holding him close but in a gentle way as he rubbed soft circles across his skin. He started speaking softly, telling him how he was going to be alright, he was going to be fine. They were going to make it through the next week, and how James would probably have plenty of amazing new things to show him like the lake and the cave and sliding, and once the week was over they'd go to Casparius and how he was sure his family would love him and how he couldn't wait to show James all kinds of wonders from around the world thanks to their successful trading. Max was just kind of talking, thinking of any reassuring thing he could think of and hoping, hoping, hoping it was helping the other.
