The Faerie Court

Tristan:

He smiled. "What's your favorite food?"

He asked.

She giggled. She was so cute.

"I love you, you little angel." he smiled at her as she started blushing.

Kitty-

SHe grabbed some carrot cake. It looked heavinly. SHe placed it on a plate and ate it with a fork." Are you hungry Tristan?" Kitty asked.

He shook his head." No I'm fine."

She stared at him." Alright but you better not get the midnight munchies."

He smiled." I promise."

Faede-

Aurora was standing on the dais again.

"That's it," she said, sitting on the handmaiden's stool. "He's such a flirt it isn't even funny."

"What did he do now?" I asked.

"Tried to kiss me."

I sighed, and let out a laugh. "Wasn't that what you wanted?" I asked, looking at her closely.

She blushed again. "Y-yes. But no. But... I don't know!" she wailed.

Aurora:

"I just...want him to like me...and me alone. Until then, I don't want to kiss him." I could be really stubborn when I wanted to be. He was so gorgeous! I wanted him to love me! And only me. Was that so hard to ask?!

I knew it was of him. But I didn't care. It would be better if I just watched him flirt with other girls, than also doing it with me.

"Do you think that he will ever settle down?" I asked the Queen, but afraid of the answer.

Tristan:

He smiled. "So...you like carrot cake?" he smiled.

She nodded. "Mmhmm" she said with her mouth full of cake.

"So, I'm yours now?" he asked.

"Yes." she said with her mouth full.

He smiled. She was adorable. "So...who is that girl with red hair?"

*for anyone else, he's up for love.*

Faede-

"You know, for all your dislike of them, you're very human," I said to Aurora.

She looked confused and a little frightened. "W-what?" she asked.

"Well," I said, popping a grape into my mouth. "Most fair folk would never settle down. Ever. I know I won't."

"That's because you plan on keeping that throne empty for as long as possible," she said, pointing to the throne for the "king".

I laughed. "That's true. But you've got to see what Owen sees. He has centuries ahead of him and every dawn is a new day. He doesn't want to be burdened with the same girl all the time."

"You mean he thinks I'm a burden?" she asked, horrified.

I laughed and put a hand on her shoulder. "I don't think anybody ever thinks you're a burden."

There was a pause. She looked down at her hands in her lap.

"Are you angry with me for my answer?"

"No, I just think it was a very diplomatic answer," she said. "Stop being queen for a moment. What would you tell me?"

I paused and took another grape.

"I'd tell you to live for the moment," I told her. "That's what everyone else is doing."

Kitty-

She finaly decided to answer Tristan's question." The red head is my friend- Aurora."

"Oh so that is her name. Thank you Kitty." Tristan responded.

Galeis

I had tried to explain to the Queen why I was at court. But then the human walked in! Humans! They were always getting into the way and endangering my kind with their long spears when we were in seal form. Kitty seemed to be infatuated with him. The human looked my way, his eyes widening when he saw me. Let him look. If he tried anything with me, I would kill him. The Queen wouldn't miss me in the excitement, I thought. I left the ball room and headed to the library, when I heard footsteps behind me.

Aurora:

I sighed. I didn't want to be like everyone else! I hated court. I hated having to flirt with others! I loved books. I loved creativity. And I loved Owen. But...how could I love someone who didn't love me back?! How could I be so infatuated with someone who was a total flirt?!

I glared at him, my eyes slits. it wasn't that I was mad at him. I was mad at myself for falling for him. I continued glaring. Did he even care?!

Tristan:

She was beautiful, bent over her book. But, of course, they all were.

"Excuse me, miss, what is your name?"

"Does it matter?" she responded sharply.

He chuckled a bit. "What is it with fairies and keeping their names secret?" he asked, amused.

Owen-

Aurora seemed intent on abandoning me for the final time. I folded my arms and gave her a puppy dog look. She looked away.

I sighed, wondering why I was obsessing over one girl. She was pretty, very, and kind, but most people would point out how I loved the witty girls, the confident ones.

So I gave one last, longing look towards her and leant next to the wall to the Queen's blone handmaiden. She chattered away, but I couldn't help stealing more glances in Aurora's direction.

Aurora:

I sighed and gave up. I couldn't stand being here one more minute.

"May I be excused, your highness? The forest is wonderful at night, and I think the fresh air would be good for me."

She smiled knowing that I just wanted to escape and dismissed me with a nod.

I rushed out and didn't breath easy until I was outside. I looked up at the stars and sighed. It was wonderful outside. All the heavens shinned down on me. I was glowing, I knew I was, but it was truly beautiful.

I heard footsteps behind me, but I refused to look. If they wanted to talk to me, they would address me. So I continued marveling at the beauty surrounding me.

Owen-

I saw her going up the stairs. I followed her.

"Do you like the surface milady?" I asked.

Aurora turned around. "Oh, Owen, I-I thought you were otherwise occupied."

I kissed her hand. "I can always find time for the loveliest girl in court," I told her.

Aurora:

I blushed, then frowned. "But surely the other faries will miss your wonderful company and playing." I said, trying to not sound upset.

"Perhaps." He smiled. "But will you not also miss my company?"

I sighed and looked away from him, up at the gorgeous sky. "Company is always welcome." I said, not mentioning him.

He frowned, and I hid a smile.

Galeis

Why did some humans have to be handsome and pesky? "Well, for one, I'm a selkie. We don't like to let our predetors in on private buisness. For another, since we are in polite society, my name is Galeis.

(Unless Tristan is already spoken for, can he and Galeis end up together? I think they would be perfect for each other.)

Kitty-

She watched Tristan and Galeis talk. Kitty however became bored and wondered off to the gardens. Perhaps she could get to her secret spot today.

The queen didn't like her wondering off alone, but that was half the fun. Kitty love to rebel.
