The dancing lawns, this patch of grass surrounded by elm trees really was a lovely place, a well stood right in the centre of this clearing. The sun was high in the sky, it was midday and the birds twittered and danced in the trees, flitting from one tree to the next.
A horse and rider walked into the clearing, it was King Edmund and his horse Moon, Moon was a 15.3, bay hunter, who carried Edmund everywhere. Edmund jumped lightly off the horse who nuzzled him with its nose. Edmund laughed, turning to the horse and stroking its velvet nose, smiling into its bright, round eyes.

Akira rolled her eyes as she tried to block out the lecture from her father. She was eyeing the birds that were flying by. Once again, Akira was caught in the middle of planning one of her 'silly pranks.' She then focused on what lay beyond. Akira smiled widely, seeing King Edmund. She was starting to like the boy king very much.
"Akira Alexandria Mitsune! Are you listening to me?"
He's worse than the ladies at the convent, she thought. "Yes father," she said somewhat polietly. Akio's eyes narrowed. "Akira!" he yelled as she ran ahead. Shaking his head, the advisor followed his daughter. Without regard for manners(as she would have normally), she jumped on Edmund, hugging him from behind. "Guess who?" she said happily.

The arrival of Akira startled Edmund, Moon chucked his head up away from the nose and Edmund stiffened, he relaxed as he heard Akira’s voice, pushing himself out of her grip, he turned to face her, a smile on his face.
”Hello Akira.” he said, smiling at the girl who stood before him, he was beginning to have feelings towards her. Moon came up behind Edmund; the boy king took hold of the reins, playing them in his hands. He heard footsteps behind Akira and looked past her to see her father coming towards them.
”Hello sir.” he called, smiling at the man who looked rather annoyed as he came towards the three.

Akira smiled brightly at him. Her gaze fell on the horse. Her eyes went wide as she reached out her small hand to stroke his nose. "Hello there beautiful." she said happily as her father was now of earshot. She looked back at her father and grinned ever so sweetly.
"Your majesty," Akio said pleasently as he bowed. Akira rolled her eyes as she went over. "I was just telling my daughter how to behave in a more ladylike manner."
"But I am behaving ladylike father dear," she said pleasently as she gently held onto Edmund's arm. "Just like you wanted."
Akio grumbled something under his breath. "Can you just listen for once?"
"I do listen father," Slowly by slowly she was starting to lose her composer and becoming very angry.

Edmund smiled as Akira stroked Moon, he looked towards Akio, ”Oh, I think you Akira is starting to become very much a lady sir.” Edmund said, looking towards Akira and winking at her.
She had held on to his arm, Edmund wasn’t going to be pushy and push her off his arm so he just stood there, watching the two relatives. ”How are you today Akio?” he asked the older man, smiling pleasantly.

Akira turned rather pink as he commplimented her. She gave him a question look, wandering what he was up to. She then shook her head as she listened to the mens' talk.
"I am doing well your majesty thank you," Akio said polietly. "And I hope you are doing well yourself." He raised an eyebrow as his daughter blushed rather fast. Interesting, he noted with amuesment.

Edmund nodded, ”I am good thank you.” he looked at Akio and then to Akira, frowning. ”What are you two doing here on this fine day?” he asked, more to Akio then to the girl next to him.
Moon snuffled at Akira’s dress, and Edmund pulled him away from the girl, still clutching the reins, with his loose hand, he stroked the horse on the neck, he did love Moon. He looked at Akio, awaiting an answer from the adviser.

"I was on my way to see King Peter on what he wanted with me. Then I looked and see-or rather heard-Akira planning another one of her silly pranks-"
"They provides me with amusement," Akira muttered under her breath as she turned a delicate shade of crimson. Akio looked at her with one of his looks. She immediatly kept quite.
"One thing lead to another. Before I knew it we were out of the palace." Akio finished with a smile. "But I must be getting back soon or His majesty would have my head if I'm late,"
Akira giggled. "Rememeber what happened last time?"
Akio frowned. "Yes. I rather avoid another one dear. I'll see you at dinner then?"
"Of course father." Akio nodded and ran off. Akira shook her head as she looked up.

Edmund laughed as Akira spoke about her pranks being for amusement, she was then quiet as her father gave her a stare. ”Goodbye.” Edmund said to the retreating back of Akio as he walked off.
Edmund looked at Akira, ”Your father seems a nice man.” he said, grinning at the girl in front of him, he didn’t know if he really did like her, love was strange and Edmund had never felt anything like this before towards a girl.

Akira smiled. "He tends to be a bit overly protective of me. With me being the only child and all." she made a face as she leaned against his arm. "It takes getting use to. Then again its a pain," she sighed as she looked up at him. She pushed her blonde hair away from her eyes. She flashed one of her bright and sweetest smile at him. A blush was starting to creep up on her face.
"What do you think of love when you hear it?" she inquired, looking up at the sky. Her eyes brightened as doves flew past. A smile spread across her face as she looked up at him.

Edmund smiled, the girl leaned against his arm and he stiffened up suddenly, he could see that she was blushing and he relaxed. The girl then asked her a rather bizarre question, frowning Edmund looked down at her.
"What I think of love? Well, I've never really experanced it before." Edmund muttered, ashamed at this confession.

Akira looked at him with surprise. "You haven't?" she asked curiously. She then shrugged. "I have been chased before though. Some men," she made a face. "I rather have a nice man around my age. They look so old."[/] she grinned up at him as she said this.

”I haven’t.” Edmund said again, smiling. ”I can imagine, about you being chased.” he laughed at her and a finger went through her hair suddenly. Gasping he bit his lip and pulled his finger away. Did she mean that she would like him to be with her? She was putting it that way in the way she spoke.
”Hmm…” Edmund muttered, not knowing what to say to this statement, ”Yeah…I know what you mean.” he muttered, stroking Moon’s nose.

Akira smiled up at him sheepishly. She blushed rather quickly. "But lucky father checks on them. Its rather annoying, but at least he manages though." she sighed as she looked at him. What would he say if she told him she has...feelings for him? Things can be complicated, she thought with a sigh. She titled her head to one side, lost in thought. Very complicated. She tried hard not to grin as she pictured the reaction from her father. It would be very, very funny indeed. She ducked her head to hide a grin. It took all of her self control not to burst into a fit of giggles.
"What would you say if I told you....I..have feelings..." it was hard for her to get it out. At least she was doing the right thing, or was she? She wasn't entirely sure, but she knew when the outcome would happen.

Edmund wasn’t really paying attention, he was lost in his thoughts, his head shot his head towards her…”Feelings…” he said, frowning…”oh.” he didn’t know how to react to this. ”So do I.” he spoke quickly and then turned red, biting his lip.
It was true, he did have feelings. What would Peter say? His older brother didn’t have anyone to love like Edmund had. Peter would be slightly annoyed most likely. ”Peter…” he muttered under his breath, thinking hard.
