Chapter 7
With only maybe one hour of sleep, Lukas tiredly opens his eyes. He was supposed to raise the sun but he could already tell that he slept in because the sun is already raised. The blonde sits up and yawns. There is a knock at his door. "Who... Who is it?" Lukas yawns and rubs his tired eyes. "Your best bud." Lukas looks at the door. "Oh, come in Aiden." Aiden does not go into the room. "Your mother, solar, wants to speak with you." Aiden says and the door opens. "Alright. I will be in the main hall in about thirty minutes." "No. She wants you right now. She says it's important."
After Aiden leaves, Lukas sits up and looks at his box. At least where his box was. 'Who took my box?' Lukas thinks. The box was gone and the box had all of the treasures Jesse gave him in it. Slowly, Lukas stands up and goes to his door. He was already dressed in what he wore yesterday and frankly, he did not care what he was wearing. He brushes his hair back with his right hand then he goes down to the main hall.
"You asked to see me mother?" Lukas sits down in a chair made of birch wood.
"That I did, my son. I have to ask you a few questions." Solar, the queen, says.
"Alright. Ask away." He says. His eyes widen when his mother pulls out his box, "why do you have MY box?"
"I'm asking the questions here son. And I found some pretty weird stuff in that box. Cards, jewelry, pictures and a rose."
"..." Lukas looks away and bites his lip, "I uh... I got those from... a... Secret admirer! Yeah! Thats where I got the stuff from!" Lukas pulls a fake smile.
"A secret Admirer? The why is there a name on the card and it reads 'Jesse'?" Solar raises her blonde eyebrow and Lukas bites his lip harder.
"It has her name on it?" His face starts to turn dark red.
"Lukas, Tell me what is really going ok. Now." She shuts the wooden box.
"I uh... Look, I have a close friend and I asked her to come to the sunset festival, that is happening in six days!" He says swiftly and Solar sits down.
"And what did she say?" Solar asks.
"She said she would come. Why..?" Lukas looks at his mother, nervously.
A huge smile spreads across Solars face. She puts the box aside and hugs her son tightly. "My little boy is growing up! And if you play your cards right, this kingdom might get a new sun queen!" She holds her son tightly and Lukas lets out a nervous chuckle. "Heh.. Yeah, if I play my cards right.." He says and his mother keeps on holding him. 'On a scale from one to ten, how screwed am I? ...I say about a ten.' Lukas thinks.
