What can you say, the trip to your home was silent. Having the princes at your side walking you home was unusual. And the queen will find out sooner or later but tomorrow morning she will be yelling at you.
"Ah, we arrived." Balthier stopped just in-front of the door of your home.
"Would you like to come in?" it would be rude to just go inside and let them go just like that.
"I wish I could b-"
"[Name] is that you?" asked your mother opening the door.
She opened the door and her smile grew even more. "Oh, so finally found the young man who brought you those beautiful roses?" she asked and stood there weakly and stared at Balthier.
"You what?!" asked Gippal, more like yelled.
Balthier smiled. "Of course, I did. That's what [Name] deserves and even more."
Gippal stood there growling. "Let's go before mother finds out where we are" he said with a scowl on his face and sending a glare at his brother.
"Right, I will be seeing you tomorrow, [Name]." And with a kiss on the top of your hand walked away.
You were blushing and even more when Gippal turned to face you and smirked, he too kissed you, but Gippad kissed you on the cheek. He grinned at your red face and followed his brother.
"Would you take a look at that? There's no time for flirting and yet you have those after you." Your mother said surprised.
"That's non-sense. Why would the princes be after me, when there are others they could be interested on." You asked going in and then shut the door.
Your mother's eyes widened.. " Those are the princes? Oh my, but not becuase you are my daughter but you are beutuful and I don't see why they wouldn't go after you no matter who or how important they are."
"Lets just forget it, OK. Did you take your medicine?" you asked heading to the kitchen.
"Yes, dear." She responded taking a seat. "By the way, Olette came and asked if you could come to a party she is attending tonight. "
You sighed. " I can't."
"You have to go, she is your friend and it would be nice to spend sometime with her. Besides, you work too much and you deserve time to have fun."
"I was actually thinking that we could go and have dinner at a restaurant, mother." And it was true. It has been a while since your mother had seen the town since she is sick.
She shook her head. "No dear, I am tired and I will be fine if I stay alone. I am getting old and when will I get to have grandchildren if you don't find yourself a husband?"
"Mom." You whined making your mother laugh. It was a childish act but she has always asking you when will you find your soul mate.
"Now, go and get ready. There's a gown there that Oletter bought for you. It's on the bed."
At the end you decide to go, even if you felt like staying home. You took a shower and prepared yourself wearing a beautiful [f/color] silk robe, royalty used them or richer people. It shaped your body and it fitted you perfectly, it showed all your curbs. You even wondered how Olette obtained it, she must have spent a fortune.
You let your hair down and was adorned with a few accessories which Olette left for you, and with a pair of combining pair of heals.
Just when you were finished adding an accessory to your hair, your mother came in and once she say you, she stood there with her mouth opened. "Oh my, you look beautiful." She gushed and approached you and embraced you. She had never seen you like this before.
