Luna sat Hazel on a chair and took a seat infront of her. Luna had brought Hazel to the greenhouse to have a tea with her. Looking at Hazel,it didn't feel like she is the Hazel who used to be so happy.

This Hazel is gloomy. Pale and sick.

"Hey",Luna called. "Don't think about them. They are a bit stressed. You understand right?"

Hazel nodded keeping her gaze on the beautiful round table.

"Alright Hazel. Let's postpone meeting your brother Seokjin. He is clearly strong enough to pick a fight with Jungkook. So you don't need to worry about them. Now,tell me. What do you want to do? Do you want to go outside? Or should I call Ash? He is hanging out with Luca. I don't think it's a good idea to let them hang out alone without a one to keep an eye. Who knows what mischievous thing they would come up with to mess around"

This brought a smile to Hazel. Luna smiled slightly seeing her smile.

Hazel,"I'm fine really —"

"My ladies,there is a visitor who had come to see lady Hazel"

Luna frowned. "Who?"

"His highness the crown prince"

Hazel sighed hearing the name.

Luna looked at Hazel's expression and spoke,"Tell him to come another day. Hazel is not ready —"

"I've been coming here for the last five months. Are you still refusing to see me?"

Leo had already come inside without permission. He seemed upset. But when his eyes landed on sick Hazel,his eyes softened a bit.

Hazel sighed again,"Let me go and get dress",she said softly since she was still in her pyjama dress with only a long coat over her shoulders. It was still inappropriate to stand infront of the crown prince in pyjamas.

Leo,"No need. Just sit down"

Hazel looked at Luna and spoke,"Sister in law,it's fine. I'll speak to him and come inside"

Luna was hesitant to leave Hazel but she couldn't disrespect Leo. "Don't stress her please"

Leo nodded slightly and let Luna past him. Leo took a seat infront of Hazel and stare at her.

"Why are you here?",Hazel asked directly.

Leo sighed,"I was worried"

Hazel looked away silently.

Leo,"...and I'm sorry about what happened to your father"

Hazel nodded slightly. They talked for a while and it was surprising how Hazel didn't pick a fight with Leo this time. Leo noticed this too and it was concerning him even more. The conversation was light and bearing.

Leo's heart ached. A lot. When she was kidnapped,he did a lot of repenting. And he realised a lot of things. He didn't want Hazel for the throne or power anymore. If she could only stay alive infront of him is enough for him. He truly loves her. No matter how rude she could get,he wouldn't mind seeing her again like that. Atleast she had light in her eyes that way.

He approached her with wrong intentions. If he had given her the love she deserves,maybe she would have been treating her differently now. Maybe he could have won her heart if he wasn't such an asshole.

A loud shattering sound disturbed them. Suddenly Ruby came running towards them with wide eyes making Hazel panic.

"My lady! Sir Jungkook is causing havoc!"

Hazel widened her eyes and stood up. "Where is he?"

"In the town!"

Hazel didn't even have a mind to change her outfit and made a run towards the horse stable. She hoped on her horse and started leaving the house to find her brother. Ruby followed her with another horse.

As they got closer to the town,they could see Jungkook destroying the town property. He is angry. So angry. Fuming in rage,he destroyed everything around him. By the time,she reached him,there were more than ten stores with so much damage. And now sir Noah was infront of Jungkook with his sword out. Seeing that,Hazel felt a headache coming. Why the heck are they always at their throats.

Hazel got down from her horse and pulled Jungkook by his arm. "Jungkook!"

Jungkook widened his eyes,speechless. Is he serious? Shouldn't Hazel be the one to be speechless?

Suddenly his eyes watered even before Hazel could scold him. She was dumbfounded when he started crying all of a sudden.

Even Noah seemed startled and confused. He was patrolling around the area when he saw Jungkook. He really wanted to kill him seeing him causing a ruckus for no reason but seeing him so vulnerable,he didn't know what to think. He looks so innocent infront of Hazel.

"W –Why are you crying?!",Hazel panicked.

Jungkook could care less about what the civilians thought. He was sad. He cried covering his eyes from his arm. He couldn't even hug Hazel thinking she is mad at her.

"I –I am sorry fluffball! I d –didn't mean to! Sorry! I –I got so angry at that time"

Hazel softened her eyes. This man has the most sensitive heart and it was shocking how terrifying he can get at the same time.

"I didn't mean to yell at him. I didn't mean to upset you!"

Hazel sighed and pulled him to a hug. "But you can't do things like this Jungkookie! And it's fine. I'm not mad. And I'm sure brother Seokjin is not mad as well"

Jungkook,"But you looked so pale! I was scared I made you sick! And brother Seokjin said he will kick me out of the house!"

He whined.

Hazel chuckled,"I wasn't sick because of you. And you really believe brother Seokjin's words? For real?"

Jungkook sniffled against her shoulders.

Noah was awkward seeing this interaction. The great Jungkook is a fool for his sister. Who could have expected? But he couldn't fight the small smile in his lips. Well,family is special after all. He wondered how many times Hazel had saved his life from Jungkook by now.

Jungkook looked at her with a frown noticing her outfit. After sniffling few times,he spoke in a hoarse tone,"What's wrong with your outfit?"

Hazel glared,"If you didn't decide to cause a havoc here,I wouldn't be like this"

"Sorry",Jungkook pouted and took out his own coat before covering her. "I will pay for everything I broke"

Hazel,"You better"

She turned to Noah and nodded slightly,"Sorry for everything"

Noah nodded,"It's fine as long as he pays"

Jungkook couldn't help but to glare at him.

Luca fell into a fit of laughter after hearing what Jungkook did. Ruby had explained everything to him calmly but Luca couldn't shut up.

Ruby and Luca were in Hazel's room that night to hangout with Hazel. And someone the gossip came out. Luca being the bastard,he laughed.

"I can't fucking believe he cried infront of everyone!",he wiped out his fake tears.

Hazel smacked him on the head. Luca groaned and laid down on the bed holding his head. The trio was on the bed.

"Why the fuck did you hit me?!"

Hazel,"For being an asshole"

Luca sat up,"But for real,did you fucking go out in your pyjamas?! For fuck's sake!hahaha! Fucking hilarious!"

"Do you want me to hit you again?",Hazel threatened.

Luca,"Fucking fine! But thanks to that,you seem to be better"

Hazel shrugged while bringing her knees to her chest,"I just realised I wasn't the only one suffering. And....they need me too. I was the asshole for being depressed for a long time"

Luca rolled his eyes,"Shut it. No one blames you for being sad. It's your father after all. And you fucking need to stop blaming yourself you punk ass"

"He is right",Ruby said and a small smile crept into her lips.

Luca and Hazel widened their eyes seeing her smile. First time. It's the first time Ruby smiled.

Ruby,"You once said if I smiled,you'll be alright. So,I hope you are alright"

Hazel smiled back slightly with so much affection. She suddenly jumped onto Ruby making her fall back onto the mattress.

Ruby kept her smile on her face and stroked Hazel's head. Luca also smiled slightly. He looked at the large window and saw a lot of stars out there. He smirked and pulled the two girls by their gowns. "Come here losers"

Luca dragged them towards the window and forced them to go out through the window. The tri somehow got ontop of the roof. Luca was in the middle while Hazel and Ruby laid beside him on the either side of him. They stared at the starry sky silently.

"Oi,look at that big star. That's me",Luca said pointing at a big shiny star. "I outshine everyone"

Ruby,"Are you sure? I think you are that small little lonely star",she pointed at another star.

Luca gritted his teeth,"Fuck you. That's you"

"Stop arguing. You two are losers. I'm the moon. You two can't outshine me",Hazel said.

"Haaah?! You can't count moon!",Luca exclaimed.

Hazel,"Why not?!"

Luca,"Because we are talking about stars!!"

They bickered all night and laughed. And soon they all fell asleep on the rooftop. Hazel's and Ruby's heads were on Luca's shoulders comfortably.
