Yugyeom fidgeted soon enough, gaze staring at his step mother who had finally unlocked the door.  He didn't know if he could lie that he didn't go to the party somehow - especially since he was a horrible lier. He looked at the old lady who crossed her arms,

"You can go down and make yourself food. I expect you in bed after you eat though."

Yugyeom wanted to teach her how to not have a snotty tone, but as per usual he stood up and simply nodded. He walked out when she moved, heading downstairs and into the kitchen. He made himself some toast, before eating it on his way back to his room. Once he finished, he shut his door and just curled up in his bed, sighing out softly. His mind drifted back to Jackson, his hand tightening into a fist, before he let himself be consumed by sleep.

....

Talking, and hurried footing woke Yugyeom up, making the youngest sigh out in annoyance. He sat up, and slid off the bed, tugging his door to open it. Though doubled when he found he was once again, locked inside. He pressed his ear to the door frame, listening for anyone talking, only faintly hearing his brothers in the hall,

"So the prince really is here?? To have us try a shoe on, really?? It's blue so why would it be us.."

"I don't know, mother wants us to do it so we have to."

Yugyeom widened his eyes. Jackson is here?! And his brothers... No no no! Yugyeom tugged at his door, shouting,

"Let me out! I swear to god, let me out of here right now!"

He tried to get his door to open, hearing the laughter of his brothers as they walked away. Yugyeom growled, pacing now his eyes narrowed. What to do, what to do.. He heard his mother great the prince in a 'sweet' tone, making him believe the other was inside. A light bulb clicked in his mind, making him start tugging the door again, making sure he was loud,

"Prince Jackson! Help me! Get them to unlock the door!! Please!"

Yugyeom shouted, hoping he was able to be heard. Jackson was greeting the others, and letting Bambam help the two brothers try the shoe on. He watched them, feeling disappointed when ones foot was too small, and the one too big. Though when he heard rattling from upstairs and muffled yelling he frowned,

"Who is up there?"

"Ah- you must be curious about our dog, im sorry. He's a pest, and will be gone soon!"

The step mother tried to hide Yugyeom again, but Jackson wasn't having it when he was hearing words. The prince moved towards the stairs, going up them with the mother on his heels. It was obvious from her rambling, she was trying to get him to ignore it. As he got closer, he could make out, 'Prince' 'Help me!' 'Its Yugyeom!'. Jackson turned to the older lady, and snapped,

"Open that door right now!"

He pointed to the locked door, that was the sound of sniffles and crying. The lady, defeated, unlocked the door with her key, and the door immediately opened. Bambam had joined the two upstairs, still holding the shoe who soon set it in front of Yugyeom. Yugyeom looked down at it, before putting it on, letting it slip on perfectly.

"I found you.."

Jackson smiled softly, looking at the taller male. Yugyeom smiled, and moved letting himself be embraced by Jackson, just hugging the male tightly. He trusted Jackson, trusted him to get him away from the house he used to love.

"Come, Yugyeom. I'll bring you to the castle. If i catch any one of this household near Yugyeom, I will not let my guards be nice."

He turned to the lady and brothers, before leading Yugyeom out and downstairs. Yugyeom was relieved, tears at the corner of his eyes.
