Yui's POV:
Right after dinner, we cleaned up the dishes and MY GOD WE ARE SOOO FULL!!

The food was delicious and we have a great time together during Christmas Eve.

As I was walking in the hallway go back to my room, I heard Lance talking from someone in his room.

"I love you my sweet rose."

"Huh?"

I slowly leaned my head against the door carefully not to make a sound where I eavesdropped on Lance's conversation.

"I missed you so much my dear sweet Primrose."

He said it again as I became curious but a bit irked at the same time.

What is he talking about? And who is this Primrose he's talking about?

I thought while getting a bit irked when he's talking to some girl, but fuck it. I decided to see what's inside of his room where I carefully opens his room. However I'm glad it wasn't a girl when I saw him talking to a portrait of a girl.

However that got me curious all of the sudden when he's talking to a portrait of a girl.

Who is this girl? How does Lance know her? Did he and that girl were close?

I thought while watching him talking to the portrait.

Lance's POV:

***Lance's room^***

While in my room, I talked a picture of my beloved lover, Primrose. Oh Primrose, how I missed you so much.

I remember her long chestnut brown hair, her gorgeous lime green eyes that got me intrigued, her elegant red dress that I admired, her beautiful soothing sound of her voice, and her sweet and kind nature that got me head over heels. Primrose was my beautiful and sweet goddess. She was my rose and I was her prince.

***Lance's Deceased Lover Primrose^***

"Oh my beloved Primrose, you look marvelously stunning today. Oh if only you're alive...."

I professed my undying love for my sweet precious Primrose as I sighed blissfully at the sweet memories of my former princess. She was my lover, she was my angel, and she was my goddess. However my heart broke when she sacrificed herself and I couldn't stop thinking about her ever since.

While professing my love for my deceased lover, I heard the door creak from my room as I spun around to see Yui spying on me.

I literally froze in shock and embarrassment as my face heats up where my cheeks turns completely red like a rose.

"P-Princess!"

"Ummm....hi?"

She greeted nervously with an awkward smile and a sweatdropped as we stood there awkwardly.

Yui's POV:
As we stood there awkwardly after I fuck up the whole "eavesdropping" thing, both of us were lost in words where we were completely embarrassed.

"Uhh....it's not what it-"

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I mean to eavesdropped like that! I was just curious and I-"

"N-No! No! It's not your fault! I didn't know you were there! I-"

"No it's my fault! I shouldn't eavesdropped! I'm so sorry!!!!"

I apologized a lot with Lance waving his hand ate with a flustered expression.

"No! Please don't apologized!"

He assured me while both of us are flustered. I blinked my twice but I smiled and giggled anyway. Once both of us are calm down, I sat next to Lance on his bed where we both sat awkwardly.

"So Lance...that picture that you were talking to....who was that?"

I asked awkwardly as Lance grimaced in response, but explains anyway.

"She's a...close ally of mine...."

He explained with a sad tone while hiding it with a fake smile, but I can see the sadness right through him and I started asking him about the brunette girl.

"How close were you?"

I asked curiously as Lance gripped his hands against the covers of his bed while grimacing at my question but still retains his fake smile.

"...Lets just say that....we were once lovers."

He sadly replied while suppressing his sadness with his fake smile. I can tell by his face that he's hiding something, but I'm curious about his relationship with this girl.

"How long you've been dating?"

I asked curiously as he grinned sadly while trying to hide his sadness and pain.

"Well...I propose to her three years ago before our parents died..."

He explained with a depressed tone as I can tell he's having flashbacks of his loving memories with his lover.

"What happened to her Lance?"

I asked curiously with a hint of guilt from my tone as I want to know what was his relationship like with the brunette girl. Lance then grips the sheets tighter while keeping his calm demeanor.

"She...died to protect me and my brothers...."

He sadly replied as he got up from the bed with a depressed expression where he picks up a rose from a glass pink vase. Lance gazed at the rose with tender yet pained emerald eyes.

"She was my angel...she was my goddess...she was my beloved rose princess...."

He sadly stated as he sniffs the rose silently where he reminisced his past romance of his late lover.

"Oh Primrose, your fragrant and alluring rose has made me think of you again. If only if you're alive...."

He sighed softly while embracing the rose in his hand.

"Primrose...that's the name of a flower."

I pointed that out as he grins slightly at me.

"It's a perfect name for beautiful and loving woman like her. She was once a trainee from Christoph and a guardian from our parents."

He sweetly explained as he tightens the rose with a warm smile.

"She would always hand out with us and that's when I fell in love with her kind, sweet, and bright nature. So that's why I gave this lovely rose to her as a sign of my unconditional love for her."

He lovingly stated as I smiled warmly at the fond memories of Lance and Primrose.

"You were very close to her."

I empathized him as Lance nod with a slight grin.

"We were, but...she's longer with us anymore...."

He gloomily stated while holding the rose in his hands.

"After Primrose sacrificed herself, I kept this rose I gave her and cherished it as a memento of our romantic and loving times together."

He sadly stated as I felt bad for the playboy despite his flirtatious nature. I didn't expect Lance to act like this. At first I thought he was the flirtatious playboy of the mansion, but seeing him like this surprises yet breaks my heart. The playboy then grips the stem tightly as he grimaced at the tragic death of his lover.

"I'm sorry Primrose... I wish I was there for you...if I were there, you wouldn't be dead by now...."

Lance grimaced as tears swells up from his emerald eyes. I couldn't stand him crying, so got up from the bed and I approached him and gently grabs both of his hands with empathic pink eyes.

"She did it for a reason Lance, she deeply cared for you and your brothers. She wants you and your brothers to be happy."

I assured him with a sweet warm smile as I caressed his cheek gently.

"The good thing is that you're not dead and you have your brothers by your side."

I then cupped his cheeks so I can gazed at his teary emerald eyes.

"I may not know much about your past, but I'm always here for you if you want to talk to me."

I kindly assured as I wiped the tears off from his face with my fingers shocking Lance.

"Remember Lance, you have your brothers and me by your side. We always got your back."

I reassured him as I smiled warmly at me and he gently grabs my wrists.

"Thank you Princess."

He then pulled me into a strong embrace taking me out of surprise.

"I know this might sound sudden but...can we stay like this for awhile?"

He asked curiously while hugging me as I smiled and nod in response.

"Of course we can and I will always here for you."

I assured him with a gentle sweet grin as he grins warmly at my kind words where we embraced each other in a beautiful heartwarming night.....
