Sune is done. You're done. But the battle goes on.

Enjoy.

~~~~~

Two days have passed. If you were healthy you would be fighting in round two of the tournament to see if you would make it to the Seven Star. Although you were not clear and Headmaster had made the announcement so you didn't have to do it publicly. You were in your dorm resting and just waiting for everyone to come back to the dorms. Though it felt lonely and sad again. This was almost a similar feeling that you had leaving Denmark. Which reminded you to give your mother a chat. You went to a school phone where they could do long distance. At the phone booth you were prepared for this one. It has been too long.

< Hello? >

< Ma. It's me. >

< (FN) how are you Sweetie!? >

< Easy. I'm just okay. A lot has been going on and I know I haven't made contact with you at all but it has been a crazy few weeks. >

< I'll shut up. Tell me the details. >

< Well Ma I had to withdraw from the tournament qualifier due to injury. I have a concussion and not cleared for activity yet. >

< Geez. Who did you fight? >

< Well Ma I actually figured it out. I met a friend who trains harder than anyone I have seen, has a brilliant mind, and his roommate is my girlfriend. But I'll get to that in a moment. In the tournament my first fight was Sune. I won. >

< You won!? Oh my God! How did you do it? >

< Something called the HOKO technique. Hit Once Knock Out. As soon as the match started I used everything in my body to knock him on his ass. They declared me the winner and he threw a rock at the back of my head. I was out cold, spent overnight in the infirmary, and I was resting in my dorm before I decided to give you a call. I'm at a phone booth from the school. >

< So what happened to Sune? >

< Expelled and should be back to Denmark by now. Dumb son of a bitch deserves it. Headmaster hates him. > 

< And Erick Von as well? > 

< You got it. >

< Well you won. So now, tell me about this girl. >

< Which one? >

< Oh hell no. I taught you better than that. >

< Hold on. My girlfriend is Stella. My roommate is Elise and she's lesbian. >

You could hear a large sigh from your mother. < Oh thank God! >

< Really... >

< So what's she like? >

< Well Ma, don't know how to say it but, I'm dating a Princess... > 

< Stella... That Stella? >

< I guess there is only one right? Yeah. Somehow. She is quite a person. Doesn't throw her title around. A normal woman my age. Though it is very hard to believe that isn't it? A little hard to get sometimes but she has been taking care of me since I got hurt. >

< Treat her well and you never know what will be next. You factor it. >

< Much with love. >

< I am so glad you came in to check on me. Means so much that I haven't been forgotten. >

< Be honest Ma. Has it been lonely? > 

< Has its moment. You know how that goes. But I will let you go Hun. Please be well. I am very proud and cannot wait to here more about you and Princess Stella. >

< Alright. Bye Ma. >

< Bye Sweetie. >

You hang up and that is when you had another call coming. You just answered without looking. Who could be calling you at this time?

< Hello? >

< Darling where are you? Shouldn't you be getting rest? > Stella sounds like she is in a decent mood outside of her concerns for you.

< Sorry. Just called my mother. Used a booth close to the main building. Sorry to upset you. >

< Just worried is all. Wanted to comfort you after I shower off and such. >

< You won Princess? >

< I did. But more important I'll use the shower here and I'll meet you when you get here. Make sure you drink plenty of water for you headaches. Okay? >

< See you soon Stella. >

< Bye-bye. > Click. 

"Ahhh. I love her. Wait! Showering at- Jesus Christ. What's next Elise is going to yurify the room? Ah the pain. I have heartburn."

~~~~~

You open the door to your dorm and Stella is in a towel on the couch. Her hair down and about to put panties on.

"Wah!"

"I'm sorry!" You slam the door and turn the other way.

"(FN) it's okay. I'm just startled."

"Phew." Close call. No fire attack. Which is nice with all considering. "Elise here?"

"At the girlfriend's." Stella put on panties on and made sure the towel was tied around her chest. "You can look at me. It's fine."

"Just making sure you're comfortable. I mean I have a headache as is. Not going to push the envelope with all of this. You know what I mean."

Stella sighed. "It's why I'm trying to aid you back to health. I miss training with you. Sparing together. I mean we've done everything pretty much together. We're lovers and this has been rough on my end too."

"And I'm the injured one. That says a lot. But thank you Stella. Speaking of my mother is shocked you're my girlfriend."

"The ex-wife of Erick Von (FN) knows me. Huh. Wonder if we will eventually see each other's homes. You know what I mean?"

You smile. "I'm sure one day. How about it?"

"I'd love to meet your mother. My family it's a little different. You know what I mean..."

"You mean royalty Stella?"

"That and I'd love to hear the reaction of me being in a towel in front of a man."

You chuckled. "You've already decided."

"You ass. Hehe. How about a proposal?" She stood up.

"Mind is foggy but go ahead." You walk up to her. "After dinner we watch a show together and before bed I assist you in the shower?"

"Uhhh..." Massive blush. Stella must have had a vision sometime. "Didn't you already take one?"

"Well yeah. I was sweaty and I didn't want you to think I was gross."

"Okay..."

I just want him to know that we are close. To have him as a reminder on how close we are. And how much I miss and care about him. We're part of each other. Whether if he was hurt or not I've thought about it even though I'm still a tad embarrassed.

Oo-lala Lady Stella. Though I'm sure a pot of guys would love to be in this spot. The love is in the air.
