6. Arranged


Keith returned to the castle when it got dark and went straight to his room to sleep.

The next morning, he walked to the dining room to have breakfast with his parents while thinking of Katie and her beautiful smile.

He heard his mom say something but he was too busy daydreaming to make out the words.

" Keith! Look-" He finally heard it and from natural instincts, dodged the wall he was walking into.

When he sat down and started eating, the Queen said, " I saw that smile Keith," She smirked," That was your smile of admiration,so spill the beans," She leaned in closer and whispered, " Who is it?" 

Keith shrugged trying not to make eye contact, " I don't know what you're talking about mother.."

" Look at me in the eye and say that.." She smiled knowing that she won,

Keith made eye contact with his mother, " I don't know what-" He flushed red and finally admitted it. 

" Fine," Keith sighed, " It's this girl I keep meeting outside of the castle when I go out. I don't know why I see her every single time."

" So.. You fancy her?" The Queen smiled at her son and suddenly realized something and she frowned.

" I don't know that yet.." Keith answered with a red face and saw the Queen's frown, " Mother?"

" I'm sorry son, I'm afraid you're gonna have to avoid that girl.."

" Why?" He asked confused and she sighed, " Your fiancee's visiting next month.."

" Who is it?!" Keith asked alarmed,

" It's-" She paused, " It's Princess Allura from the Altea Kingdom.." 

" Mother! I don't have any feelings for her Allura, she's just a friend! ( Inserts Adrien meme )

" I'm sorry, your father decided it was best for you and our kingdom.."

" No..." He backed up, " I don't want my life to be like this! " 

His eyes leaked tears and he ran down the halls to his room mumbling, " I won't let it.."

Katie sneezed and Matt grinned,

" Bless you,"

" Thank you,"

" Someone must be talking about you, " His grin turned to a deadly smirk, " I'll find whoever's talking about you.."

Katie put a hand on Matt's shoulder and laughed to reassure him, " Pfft.. Who else would talk about me except you guys?"

She felt something cold on her cheek and touched it.

" Pidgeon? Why are you crying..?!" Matt said in alarm, " Was it something I said?"

" I-" Katie sniffed and blinked her tears out while wiping her face.

" I don't know.." She said and felt a sharp pain on both of her legs and collapsed.

" Katie!"
