"Eh? Urata can't drink," Yuuto said in shock, the short brunette just sighed as the teal-haired teased him, "do you want me to ask for orange juice for you then~"

"I'll kill you if you continue that." Urata glared at the male who was just laughing.

"Then again, you guys are technically underage so you can't even if you wanted to~"

"You're in the same boat as us," Kuro stated, "so you don't get to tease us for it."

"Kuro's being mean to me~" Yuuto fake whined, "I need my precious Sakata to comfort me~"

"Oi."

"Don't you have Haru now?" Luz asked as the teal-haired gestured his hand around him.

"Do you see him anywhere around here?"

"Aw~ you don't have your sweet boyfriend to keep you company~" Kuro teased as the teal-haired slightly blushed.

"So now you want us to entertain you cause you're bored without him." Nqrse jokingly said, Shima chuckled.

"He's just too lonely so he feels the need to tease us." Urata said in an amused tone as Yuuto puffed his cheeks out.

"Hey! I get to be the annoying one here, not you guys."

"Oh, there you guys are." Kashitaro said as the three princes headed towards them.

"Did you guys end up getting mobbed by people?" Lon jokingly asked, giggling a bit after seeing the three males nod their heads.

"So...many....people..." Sakata muttered as he hugged the short brunette, "Urata~ save me~"

Urata just rolled his eyes at the redhead's exaggeration. He then quickly gave the redhead a small peck on the cheek while the others weren't looking, making the redhead blush before smiling.

"The amount of times people asked me to dance with them is too much to count." Soraru said as the albino laughed.

"Well now we're here for you~"

"That's Mafu's way of saying that he won't let people get close to you." Amatsuki teased as the albino gave him an annoyed look.

"In other words, he's jealous." Luz said as he laughed at the albino's small embarrassment.

"Oh, you guys are wearing your pendants," Yuuto pointed out.

The necklaces were hanging around the males' necks, each in their respective color. Except for Soraru's, which had a mixture and swirl of their colors combined.

"Mom said we should, kind of like an anniversary gift or something like that." Sakata said as he smiled.

"I see you're also wearing the necklace I gave you~" Yuuto teased as he poked the redhead, "ww of course you'd wear the matching necklace with Urata."

"H-Hey, cut it out!" Sakata shouted as he blushed, the teal-haired just giggled.

"Urata's probably wearing his too, it's just that he's embarrassed to show it~"

"Oi, I'll kill you if you continue talking."

"Wow, I've received two threats from Urata already, I expected more though." Yuuto laughed and hid behind the redhead as a shield from the short brunette.

"So what are you guys going to do?" Nqrse asked, deciding to ignore the two male's usual bickering, the raven-haired shrugged.

"Technically we have to stay on the castle grounds but it's mostly Soraru who has to stay here," Senra stated, "me and Sakata can leave."

"Yep~" Sakata eagerly said as he linked his arm with the short brunette, "so let's go Urata~"

"O-Oi, don't drag me."

"And they're gone." Shima said as the teal-haired giggled.

"How lovey-dovey can they be~" Yuuto smiled at them, "well I'm off too, bye~"

"You're going to annoy them?" Eve said in amusement as the teal-haired shook his head.

"Nope, I'm going with Hana to make sure things are okay, you and Nqrse can enjoy the night."

He gave them a cheerful smile, "think of it as a thanks for helping us back then, but now it's our turn to take control over the situation."

Eve and Nqrse looked at the male's smile, they couldn't help but smile back. Yuuto waved goodbye to them as he headed towards where the pink-haired female was.

"If you think about it, he might've not said something like that back then." Sou mentioned as he looked at the mushroom-haired and grinned, "guess he's grown a bit."

"With how things are going he's definitely happy. He doesn't seem to put on a mask anymore." Lon cheerfully said as the pink haired male nodded his head.

"Well, I guess we'll be going then, bye guys," Sou smiled as he grabbed the mushroom-haired's hand and waved towards the rest, heading to somewhere else in the castle.

"I wanna look for Masamune~" Amatsuki pleaded to the brunette, who just sighed before smiling at the male, and the two left the rest.

"No matter what we do we end up splitting into our pairs." Shima chuckled a bit while the raven-haired sighed.

"So you guys going to go somewhere else?" Lon asked as the purple-haired shrugged.

"I kinda just wanna stay in my room," Senra said, "there's really nothing to do here so we can just spend the night there."

"What are you guys going to do~" Kuro playfully cooed, a cheeky grin on her face, "the two of you alone in your room, sounds suspicious~"

"Eh, we're probably gonna–"

"Senra, maybe be careful with your words." Shima said, the blonde gave him a confused look before blushing as he processed the words.

"I-I wasn't going to i-imply t-that!!"

Www sure you weren't~" Kuro teased as the blonde glared at her.

"K-Kuro!"

"I know you weren't but others nearby might assume so." Shima stated as Senra looked at him.

"E-Eh?!? D-Do you seriously–"

"I don't even think I want to know about what you're implying." Soraru said in a deadpanned tone, Mafu just tilted his head as the blonde waved his hands defensively.

"T-They're t-the one thinking that!!" Senra shouted as the purple-haired rose his eyebrow.

"I just said think about your phrasing."

"S-Shima! D-Don't try to act innocent and twist my words!"

"I'm doing no such thing." Shima said as he raised his hands in defense, "though, who knew you could be perverted–"

"Shima!"

"Well, you guys are going to be by yourselves with your boyfriends so," Kuro said as she hugged Lon's arm, "me and Lon are going to the garden outside, bye~"

"Alright let's go Mafu," Soraru dragged the confused albino as the blonde continued to bicker with the purple-haired, "we'll leave the married couple alone."

"So where are we going?" Mafu asked as the raven-haired shrugged.

"Probably just walk around the castle, we can join the others if you want."

The albino smiled, "I don't mind, as long as I can be with you I'll be happy."

A faint blush faded on the raven-haired's cheek as he stopped and turned to face the albino. Soraru softly pinched the male's cheek, it was a gentle pull as he muttered to the albino.

"Don't say cheesy stuff like that, I don't know how to react."

Mafu giggled, causing Soraru's heart to flutter even more.

"Soraru can be a big softie when he wants to be~"

"Maybe I should just pull your cheeks like Urata does to Sakata." Soraru bluntly said in an annoyed tone as the albino waved his hand defensively.

"I'm joking, I'm joking. I don't want to face the same demise as Sakata."

Soraru chuckled as he gave the albino a small peck on the lips. Mafu timidly looked away, covering his face behind his hands while the raven-haired chuckled again.

"But I'm happy that I got to fall in love with you." Mafu hugged the male with a bright smile on his face.

"Me too," Soraru smiled back, the two stood like that in silence for a while before the raven-haired spoke again.

"I wonder what would've happened if Amatsuki confessed to me earlier."

"......I don't want to think about that....."

"If someone getting jealous," Soraru teased the albino who blushed and lightly punched the male.

"Y-Yamete! H-How about we go join Lon and Kuro!"

The raven-haired just laughed as the albino quickly walked ahead.

*******

"So where are you taking me?" Urata asked as he followed the redhead to wherever he was taking him.

"I just wanted to walk around, it's peaceful here," Sakata said as he smiled at the short brunette, "and I get to be here with you."

Urata rolled his eyes before glancing at the redhead, who gave off a bright, positive aura. The short brunette couldn't help but smile to himself. This idiot...

He grabbed the redhead's hand, who looked at him in confusion before being greeted by a sweet kiss. Sakata blushed, turning his head away while the short brunette smirked.

"W-Why'd you suddenly d-do that?"

"Because I wanted to." Urata stuck his tongue out as Sakata slightly pouted.

"How can you sometimes be calm and unfazed and other times you look away like a tsundere?"

"Oi." Urata glared at the male and pinched his cheeks for the comment, "keep complaining and I might just not kiss you anymore."

"E-Eh?!? W-Wait, no, I want you to keep kissing me!"

Urata just rose his eyebrow in amusement, trying to hide the small chuckle from escaping his lips. Sakata blushed even madly after thinking about what he just said.

"W-wait I didn't mean it like–"

Sakata's words failed to come out as his lips were again sealed by the short brunette's. Urata chuckled as the redhead turned his head away in embarrassment.

"You asked for it," Urata teased as the redhead's ears were completely red.

"I d-didn't mean now!"

"And you say I'm the tsundere." Urata commented as the redhead weakly glared at him.

"As much as you're an idiot, I guess I'm an idiot too for falling for you." Urata said as he gave the male one more kiss, a kiss filled with happiness and gentleness that made the redhead's knees shake a bit.

Sakata could feel his heart skip a beat, it was starting to get full from all the sweetness. He timidly hid his face in the short brunette's shoulder once they parted. Urata just patted the redhead's hair, silently laughing to himself at the male's embarrassment.

"What are you planning?" Sakata questioned the short brunette, who tilted his head in confusion.

"Eh? What do you mean?"

"You're never this sweet," Sakata gave the male a curious and accusing stare, "Urata's always mean and sadistic to me, something's up."

Urata just gave him an unamused expression. Yep, I really am an idiot for liking him.

"Oi idiot, I don't need a reason to show you how much I love you." Urata pinched his cheek, "I just decided to have a sweet moment with you, plus the others aren't here so I don't have to deal with their annoying comments."

Sakata rubbed his cheeks once the short brunette let go, slightly pouting.

"Are you sure you're not planning anything?"

"Yeah, I'm being all nice to you because I'm going to break up with you."

"Urata!"

Urata smirked as the redhead lightly punched his arm, annoyed at the comment, but he was also slightly angry that the male teased him like that.

"Urata's so mean~ I almost slightly believed you because of the way you said it~" Sakata whined as the short brunette rose his eyebrow.

"So now you're complaining about me being mean?"

Sakata could see the teasing smirk start to begin forming on the male's face, which slightly made him regret even blurting that out.

"I'm starting to think that you're a mas–"

"Hey let's go back to the castle, we can be with the others!"

Sakata quickly cut off the short brunette and grabbed his hand and turned around. Urata just laughed as the two began to head back to the castle, listening to the silence of the night sky and their heartbeats going in sync.

*******

Senra was just resting his cheek on the palm of his hand as he leaned on the balcony railing, an annoyed expression on his face.

He ignored the purple-haired that was apologizing, although he could hear the small chuckles that left his lips, still irritated at the incident from before.

"I was joking," Shima said as he laughed a bit, "I just couldn't help myself in seeing your blushing face."

"Wow the night sky looks beautiful." Senra said, acting as if he was speaking to himself, "maybe I should ask someone from the ball to come out and look at them with me."

"Oi," Shima lightly slapped the blonde's head, "only I get to see you look lovely while looking at the sky."

Senra blushed at the comment and quickly turned his head to look at the purple-haired.

"S-Stop making me get embarrassed!"

"Thought you weren't suppose to hear me." Shima teased as the blonde glared at him.

"You hanging around Urata and Soraru was a bad idea." Senra muttered as the purple-haired laughed.

"Eh~ It's just cute to see you look embarrassed," Shima hugged the male from behind, a grin on his face, "it makes me happy that I get to see that expression~"

"I'm starting to wonder what would've happened if I chose Riku instead."

"Oi," Shima slightly pouted at the blonde's words, "also, who was the one that said to me that they were jealous at one point?"

"I-I didn't mean to say it, it just came out unconsciously at the time!" Senra defended himself as the purple-haired gave him a small peck on the lips.

"Sure you did," he teasingly said, "and I'm guessing you also didn't mean to get upset when I jokingly proposed to you."

"I'm tempted to shock you right now if you don't stop." Senra gave the male a deadpanned expression, Shima chuckled.

"You wouldn't do that even if you tried, you love me too much~"

"..."

"Admit that you're grateful to have met me~" Shima teasingly said as the blonde turned to face the male, hiding his face in his neck.

"I am..."

"I wasn't really expecting that." Shima commented as the blonde lifted his head to slightly glare at him.

Senra sighed as he hugged the male back, "but really, I am. If you hadn't been too pushy back then, I might've not had this life."

Shima just stayed silent, a small blush coloring his cheeks as the soft wind blew their hairs, making them sway back and forth along with the rhythm. A smile made its way on his face, patting the blonde's hair, Shima tightened his hold on him.

"If I hadn't been too push in befriending you, I wouldn't have had such a cute boyfriend." Shima moved slightly to cup the male's cheek and give him a simple yet sweet kiss.

Senra blushed but gave into the melting sensation, a wave of happiness and bliss washed over him. I really am grateful.

The two parted their lips, staring lovingly into each other's eyes before a small laugh escaped their lips.

"Wonder how the others are doing?" Senra pondered, Shima shrugged.

"Probably still off in their own worlds as Kuro said."

"So basically like us, being all sweet with each other," Senra stated as the purple-haired laughed.

"We all just act lovey-dovey when we're by ourselves," Shima smirked, "we can say that also goes to Urata and Sakata the most."

"One's a tsundere and the other's a shy idiot when he wants to be."

"Couldn't that also be applied to the others though?" Shima jokingly said as the blonde laughed.

"Well, let's at least go see how the party's going." Senra said as he walked away from the balcony, the purple-haired following him.

As they walked, Shima heard his name being called out. The two turned their head to look at the person that spoke, finding out that it had been a butler.

"Excuse me Shima, I know you're enjoying the night but your parents wanted to talk to you."

"Eh?" Shima tilted his head as the butler smiled.

"They contacted the king and queen, saying that it was just a message to you."

Shima just stared at the male in confusion. What could they want to say to me?

"Any reason why?"

"I haven't been told, the king just said to bring you there to see what they want. They said to bring only you."

Alright, now that's kinda weird...Why would mom and dad suddenly want to talk to me? And just me?

Shima found this slightly strange, he figured something might've happened and it made him worried, but this seemed to have happened so suddenly. Nothing seemed wrong before we left.

He just stared at the butler that was awaiting for his response. I should probably go, but why do I feel hesitant? Would that be the right thing to do?
