Pearl

Ruby

We get to the kingdom and Walk in, my father no where to be seen.

Probably in the throne room.

I look around before looking at Dylan, "You want to hang out by the garden."

Dylan

I look around and nod, "Sure."

Ruby

I smile and nod, leading him outside and to the flowers.

Dylan

I follow, smiling, and look around once we get out there.

Ruby

I let go if his hand and plop down in the flowers, moving the bangs out of my eyes, "This place is so pretty."

Dylan

I sit at her side and nod, smiling, "Yeah. It's nice."

Ruby

I nod and look at him, "How long are you staying?" I ask, my voice almost hopeful.

Dylan

I shrug and glance at her, flashing a smile, "I don't know. I don't really have anywhere else, and I don't really want to leave when I just got my brother back. It'll depend, I guess."

Ruby

I nod, "What are we?" I ask in a whisper, looking down at the flowers by my legs, my hair falling past my shoulders, "In status."

Dylan

I think, not expecting the question, "I don't know. We just met. Whatever we want, I guess."

Ruby

I shake my head and glance up at the palace, tucking some hair behind my ear, "Nevermind."

Dylan

Confused, I look away and sigh, "Okay..."

Ruby

I sigh and look up at the purple skies, just like my eyes, and finger a flower before tucking it into my hair, it matching my dress perfectly. Why can't I be a normal teenage girl/ I'm almost nineteen for Pearl's sake...Ugh.

Dylan

I study her before looking back at the castle. Did I do something wrong? I don't think I did, but maybe...

Ruby

Silence takes over and I take a deep breath before shaking my head at myself. I hate life sometimes.
