Chapter~1
Once upon a time, in a kingdom called Donshire, lived a wonderful royal family known as the Styles.
The King and Queen ruled over their land with pride and fairness. Not once had anyone complained over their reign for they were treated with kindness and understanding.
The people within the kingdom admired their rulers; King Robin and Queen Anne, along with their eldest daughter, Princess Gemma, and youngest son, Prince Harry.
Everyone in Donshire were accepting to anyone, no matter what ethnicity, color, and even gender. So, it wasn't a surprise for them to find out their Prince was attracted to boys. They even celebrated his coming out, saying that as long as he is happy with whoever he ends up with, they'll be supportive of him.
Now, enough of the introduction, let's get to the story!
"Prince Harry!" Called out the blonde servant boy, Niall. Also known as Harry's best friend. He knocked on the Prince's door repeatedly, knowing he's a heavy sleeper.
"Huh-wha?"
"It's time to wake up, mate." Niall informs. But once he hears no response, he knew the young Prince had fallen back to sleep, "HARRY!"
The loud voice startled the Prince awake, resulting for him to fall off his bed with a thud, "ow!"
Niall chuckles, hearing his friend groan from the other side of the door, "get your lazy bum moving, H. Breakfast will be served soon."
"Yeah yeah, just go."
After hearing Niall's footsteps walk away, Harry pulls himself off the ground and walks over to his window, pushing it open to let in his two bird friends.
Soon enough, two swallows come swooping down from the sky to perch themselves on Harry's window. The curly haired Prince smiles, reaching over to his dresser and retrieving the small packet of sunflower seeds, emptying the content on a little plate.
"How are you feeling, Lucy?" He asks the slightly smaller bird, wondering if her left foot still hurt after getting it stuck on a branch while flying with her friend yesterday.
The swallow chirped happily, bringing a smile to Harry's face, "that's good. You seriously need to be more careful like Holly over here." Harry gestures to the swallow next to Lucy, who wasn't paying much attention to them as she was busy munching on sunflower seeds.
Harry laughed softly, shaking his head, deciding that he better get freshened up before breakfast starts, and leaves the birds alone on his window.
After taking a quick bath, brushing his teeth, changing into his clothes, and struggling with his hair, the curly haired Prince began descending down the stairs, and into the dining room where he greets his family and workers a good morning.
"Good morning, son." Robin replies back, followed by Anne who asks him, "sleep well, baby?"
Harry hums, nodding his head and takes a seat next to his sister.
Breakfast was served soon after, the royal family making small talk as they ate.
Harry didn't mind his family, too busy daydreaming of when he'll meet his own Prince charming. Just like in his books.
"Harry?"
"O-oh um, yes?" Harry stutters, snapping out of his thoughts. Gemma chuckles at him, knowing exactly why he was so deep in thought.
Anne wipes her mouth with a napkin before turning to Harry with a small smile, "Your father is heading into the village today to see how things are with the people. Why don't you accompany him instead of isolating yourself in the library?"
"Mum, Dad is going to be busy, I wouldn't want to disturb him." The young Prince reasons out, obviously not liking the idea of leaving the castle and much prefers to busy himself reading fairy tales in the library or in his room.
"You won't. Niall can come with you if you'd like. Both of you can explore and have fun. Honey, as much as I understand your love for reading, you do need to get out more."
"But-" Harry tries to protest, but gets cut off by Niall bounding in, already out of his servant uniform.
"Thanks again for letting me have the day off, Queen Anne." The blonde grins widely.
"Of course, dear. Tell your mum I've missed her and that I'd love it if she could come by the castle for a spot of tea."
"Sure thing." Niall nods, then glaces over at Harry, "ready to see the real world, bud?"
Harry squirms in his seat, "I guess..."
"Oh come on, Haz! Live a little! who knows, maybe your Prince charming is already out there waiting for you."
Gemma smirks as she sees her brother instantly brighten up at the thought of meeting his one true love.
"Let me get ready!" Harry pipes, excusing himself from the table and dashing out of the room, going back into his own to change and look decent for an outing.
Niall and Gemma exchange looks, shaking their heads with knowing smiles. Today will definitely be interesting.

After visiting Niall's mum and being given permission by Robin, the two friends started their journey, aimlessly walking around the village, in hopes of finding something to eat(on Niall's end) and possibly finding someone to have a happy ending with (on Harry's).
"Pwince Hawwy! Pwince Hawwy! Hi!" Greeted a little blonde girl, Lux.
Harry gasps, smiling widely at seeing her, "Hi there, Luxy! How've you been? I haven't seen you since the last time I got my hair trimmed by your mummy."
Lux giggles, hugging Harry's leg because she wasn't tall enough to reach his waist, "me good! me and mummy miss you bunches!"
"Aww, I missed you guys, too."
Just as the words leave Harry's mouth, Louise comes walking over to where they are, "oh! Prince Harry!"
"Just Harry, Lou. It's okay." The boy insists.
"Well alright then, 'Just Harry'."
Niall laughs out loud, which resulted in all of them to join him. Eventually they stopped and Louise couldn't help but to ask, "why are you out here? Not that I don't want you to be, I just thought you'd be inside your room reading or something."
This time, Niall answers for his friend, "I was ordered by Queen Anne to let Harry explore the world, since he's been cooped up in his room or the library for most of his life."
The hairstylist nods understandingly, "I hope you two enjoy and have fun! I better get back though, I have clients waiting back inside. I just needed to retrieve my little one, she said she saw you and came running out of the salon."
"Alright. It was nice seeing you again, Lou. You as well, Lux. Bye!"
The Prince and his friend waved goodbye as the mother and daughter headed back inside the salon.
"Come on, young Harold, I wanna show you the fields!"
------
It took them about an hour to get to the fields, considering they had just walked and were constantly stopped by people to say hi. Harry didn't complain, and neither did Niall since they were given food at every stop they make for them.
So once they did reach their destination, Harry's eyes widen in awe as he stared out into the vast green fields with small flowers here and there.
"Niall, this is-..." The Prince was speechless, to say the least. He could only see views like it in his books, but now he's actually seeing it in real life.
"I know, right?" Niall takes a moment to breathe in the fresh air, but then has a smirk on his face when his friend blurts out, "race you to the end."
"You're on, Princey."
Without another word spoken, the two friends were off, running the fastest their own legs could take them. Sweat begins to form on Harry's forehead as he and Niall kept trying to be in front of the other.
It's been months- no, YEARS- since he's felt this much adrenaline rush. Memories of him and Niall as kids running around the castle and causing mischief flash into his mind.
"Haha! Can't catch me!"
"I could if you'd let me!"
Ah...those were the days.
"Come on, Ni! I'm right here!"
"I got you now Har- wait no don't-!"
Too late.
Little Harry tripped down the stairs. Thankfully, it was only a couple of steps, so he only got an injured knee.
It looks like the past wants to repeat itself because not even a second later Harry trips on his own feet and goes stumbling down the steep part of the fields.
"HARRY!!!"
------
Louis had been casually relaxing against a tree when suddenly he hears someone about, "HARRY!!!"
Who could that be?
His eyes scan his surroundings until it focuses on a body heading- no, more like TUMBLING- down the steep fields leading to where he is, which is the orchard trees.
On instinct, he springs into action, running towards the boy. Only problem was, how the fuck was he going to stop him?
He didn't have time to think before he gets taken down along with him, which resulted for both lads to go tumbling together. Louis wraps his arms around the boy's waist, just as they finally make it to the bottom, with the mystery boy landing on top of him.
Louis recovers from the fall first, and asks, "hey mate, are you okay?"
Mystery boy slowly looks up from where his head was buried in the chest of his savior(?), and Louis surely wasn't prepared to have a face-to-face with such beauty and cuteness.
Holy fooking shit.
"A-are you an angel?" The boy with emerald green eyes and curly hair asks.
"I could ask the same question for you." Louis says without thinking, "I mean-! no."
"Oh."
"But you surely are." He blurts out and mentally slaps himself.
He sees a light blush coating the boy's cheeks, him replying with a quiet, "th-thanks."
They end up staring intently into one another's eyes and Louis swore he could have died right there and then.
Guess he can now check *meet an angel in person off of his bucket list.
------
Niall halts to a stop, seeing his best friend on top of an unknown stranger.
Damn he's fast.
He found his Prince charming- or rather, knight in shining armor- faster than all the princesses in his fairytale books combined.
Deciding that the two had enough of staring at each other, he walks closer and clears his throat, "sorry to interrupt this meeting, but Haz? Are you okay?"
Harry snaps out of his trance, looking at his blonde friend before rolling off of the boy beneath him.
"Y-yeah, I'm fine."
"Don't mind me asking, but what happened up there that resulted for you to go tumbling down?" The blue eyed boy asks.
"My friend here, who is very clumsy, tripped on his own feet. Thanks for helping him, by the way...-?"
"Louis. Me name's Louis." The boy answers with a smile, "and it was no problem. You had quite the tumble, Harry is it?"
"Yeah..." The younger boy nods, his eyes not meeting with his.
"I hate to cut you two's conversation short, but H, your mum and dad might be looking for you. It's almost lunch time so we should better get going."
"Oh, of course. Emh, I'll see you around then, Louis."
The blue eyed lad nods with a smile, "I'm look forward to it."
As the Prince and blonde make their way back up the steep fields, Harry couldn't get the image of Louis out of his mind. Or his voice. Or his smile.
Omg. Is this what they call "love at first sight?"
Cause Harry thinks he's definitely found his first. real. crush.
There you have it folks! The first chapter! ^~^

I hope it's good.
I'm still figuring out on how the plot should go but I think this is a good start...?
Yeah haha.
