Evan's/Vanoss' POV
I see the boys eye how wide as he notices I'm pointing at him. All of the other knights gasp. "You've got to be joking, your majesty! That one is only in the second to last rank! He's an equivalent to a peasant!" The commander shouts in shock to which the boy growls. "I don't care. He's the one I want." I respond while walking over to him. "But-" "I am the new king! Therefore you obey my orders!" I stop and turn to face the commander with a death stare. I then direct my attention to the mysterious blue-eyes knight that's still in shock. "Hello, my knight. May I ask of your name?" I ask, holding my hand out for him to grab. He stares at my hand for a moment before taking it. I pull him up a little to roughly, making him fall into me. He's very light even though he is wearing armor. The knight quickly gets up and composes himself, a tint of pink on his cheeks. "Please forgive me, King Evan! My name is Jonathan, but my name in battle is Delirious." He says, saluting me. Jonathan... It suits him. "Well Jonathan, there's no need to apologize nor is there a reason to salute me. I don't want you to call me King Evan, I want you to just call me Evan. In your eyes I want you to see me as a friend instead of royalty, and I want you to treat me as such." I demand with a welcoming smile. He returns my gesture with a sheepish smile. "Yes yo- I mean Evan." Jonathan states. "Alright then, I will personally show you to your new sleeping courters in the palace." I say, grabbing his hand and intertwining our fingers. He blushes, making me smile. It's pretty fun, teasing him like this. I should do this more often. I lead him to the castle and walk in. "Good evening, your highness. Have you hired another guard?" Tyler, one of my fathers most beloved knights, greets me as I enter the throne room with Jonathan. "Yes, in fact, this is actually going to be my personal guard. Tyler, meet Jonathan." I say as I point at a very lost Delirious. "Awesome! I can't wait to work with you, buddy!" Tyler shouts with excitement. "Hey Tyler, have you seen Craig? I forgot where Jonathan's new sleeping courters are and I need him to show us the way." I say, scratching the back of my neck. Tyler's eyes sparkle at the mention of one of my favorite butlers, Craig. "Y-Yeah, he's in the uh, the kitchen! Um, after he shows you to Jonathan's room, do you think you could ask him to come to the royal gardens?" Tyler stutters nervously. "Sure! I'll see ya later, bud." I say before leading Jonathan to the kitchen. I look around to see Craig talking to our best chef, Brock. "Hey Craig, may I see you for a moment?" I ask. Both Craig and Brock turn their attention towards me. Craig says something to Brock before walking over to us. "Hiya, Evan! This must be your new personal guard!" Craig smiles. "Yep! Craig, this is Jonathan!" I smile. "Hi." Jon gives a small wave. "Awww! He's so shy! Well Jonathan, I'm going to tell you ahead of time. Once you get to know our little group, you will never act shy ever again! These guys are literally insane." Craig jokes, playfully punching Jonathan's shoulder. Jonathan and I both laugh, but whenever I hear Jon's laugh, I stop so I can listen to it. He sound like a complete maniac.... I like it. "Nice laugh, dude!" Craig giggles, earning a small embarrassed blush from Delirious. "Thanks." He chuckles. "Hey Mini, do you think you can lead us to Jonathan's new room? I completely forgot where it was." I question. "Yeah, sure! Just follow me, boys!" Craig laughs as he walks towards the stairwell. We follow him up and into the halls. After a while of walking, we reach my room. "Wait, why did you lead us to my room?" I ask wit a raised eyebrow. "I didn't, Jonathan's bedroom it right across from yours incase of an emergency." Craig answers with his contagious giggle. "Oh yeah! That's right! Thank you!" I say. "You're welcome!" Craig says before beginning to walk away, but I stop him dead in his tracks by saying his magic word. "Wait! Tyler wants to see you in the royal gardens!" I state, almost forgetting to tell him. Mini froze. "T-Tyler did?" He stutters, his ears turning pink. "Yup, I'd hurry if I were you." I sang teasingly. In the blink of an eye, Craig was already gone. Damn he's fast! "Welp, here's where we depart for now! I'd get some rest, your going to have a long day tomorrow!" I say, opening the door for him. "O-Okay... Thank you." Jonathan says as he walks in his room. I quietly shut the door and disappear into my own room.

Craig's/Mini's POV
What could Tyler want?! Did something happen?! I hope he's okay! I open the screen doors and enter the royal garden to see a nervous Tyler pacing around the weeping willow tree that sits next to the kitchen windows. "T-Tyler, you wanted to see me?" I ask as I shyly approach him. He stops pacing and looks into my eyes. I stare at his beautiful bluish-green eyes with admiration. "Craig... Come closer." Tyler orders, so I obey. I walk over so I'm standing right in front of him. "Please forgive me for doing this, but I don't know of any other way to tell you." Tyler sighs before grabbing my shoulders and gently pinning me to the weeping willow. "T-" I start, but I'm interrupted by I pair of lips meeting mine. I stare at Tyler wide-eyed before closing my eyes and kissing back. I snake my arms around his neck while he wraps his around my waist. He slips his hands in my shirt, rubbing my lower back as I gently tug at his hair. We separate for a short moment to look into each other's eyes. "I love you, Craig. I've loved you ever since you stepped through the palace doors." Tyler whispers in my neck, making me shiver. "I love you too, Tyler." I whisper back. Tyler leaves one small kiss on my neck before going back to my lips. He slides his tongue into my mouth and explores every inch of it. I give Tyler a devious grin before biting his tongue, but only hard enough for it to hurt a little. "Ouch!" He exclaims, pulling back with his tongue. I giggle and look up at him. He giggled back and smiles. "You aren't getting rid of me that easily." He states before reclaiming my mouth. I can't believe this is happening. I'm kissing my best friend/crush in the royal garden. This is like a fucking dream! I love it!
How about that little piece of MiniCat at the end?
