Scowls and Stable Boys

Depuis le début
                                    

Aiden came out of the room, "Who kidnapped somebody?"

"You kidnapped me!" You growled. "I don't want this job, and you guys are obviously having fun torturing me."

Connor furrowed his brow, "Torture? I'd say we've done nothing like that, wouldn't you agree brother?"

Aidens eyes glinted darkly, "No, we haven't done anything like that. Dear (Y/n), would you like us to torture you?"

You squirmed in Connors grip, "No, I'm fine."

Aiden walked over to stand in front of you, "Are you sure? Who knows, maybe you're a masochist. My brother and I didn't know you were like that (Y/n)."

Your cheeks reddened, "Its not like that," You snapped, "Now let me go so I can fulfill your stupid orders."

Slowly you felt Connors arm pull away from you and you hurriedly walked out of the room.

Aiden looked at Connor, "Touchy today, isn't she?"

You stomped down the hallway, past the throne room and out through the main hall. Stupid freaking princes, you thought, Looking down on me and making fun of me. I have half a mind to run away right now. You stuck your tongue out, pretending they were in front of you, before turning the corner and seeing the main entrance. Pushing the doors open, you felt a cool breeze push past you. It hadn't hit you until that moment that you hadn't been outside in two days, which differed greatly from when you were constantly outside in the village.

As if feeling a sudden burst of energy, you walked up to a guard who was walking by.

"Um, excuse me Sir?" You asked as you tapped him on the shoulder.

He turned to look at you, confused, "Yes?"

"Er- I was wondering if you could point me in the direction of the stable?"

He huffed and pointed to a small gravel path to the right of the main walkway before turning away.

"Thank you!" You called back as you ran down the path.

It didn't go for long, and soon you saw a beautiful stable appear in front of you. A few horses were out in a pen, grazing on grass, and you stopped to look at them for a moment.

"May I help you?" A timid voice asked and you turned to see a child that couldn't have been older than 12.

You stared at him for a moment before regaining your composure, "Yes. Are you the stable boy?"

He puffed out his chest and grinned, "The one and only ma'am! My names Reed!" He had beach blonde hair and dark blue eyes. He was wearing a white cotton shirt and grey pants, and you silently wondered why he didn't have the same color scheme as the rest of the castle.

You let out a small laugh and held out your hand, "Hello Reed, 'Im (Y/n)."

He shook it quite happily, "That's such a pretty name! Like a princess!"

You sighed thankfully, internally. The castle may be crazy and psychotic, but a child who worked there was still a child.

"Why thank you." You bent down so he was eye-level, "Do you like horses?'

His smile widened, "Mhm! They're really pretty! My dad used to work here, and Prince Aiden gave me the job of a stable boy! The horses are really fun to take care of and good company too!"

You nodded, understandingly. "Well listen I have a big boy job for you. Do you think you can handle it?"

He rolled on his feet and nodded his head eagerly.

"I need you," you poked him in the stomach, causing him to giggle, "To ready the princes horses. They're going out for a ride today."

His eyes lit up in excitement as he ran towards the stable. He stopped halfway and turned back to look at you, "Will you be joining them Miss?" He asked.

You smiled, stood up, and shook your head, "No Reed. I can't ride a horse."

He nodded understandingly and smiled again, "Well, come here someday and I'll teach you!" He disappeared into the stable and you let out another laugh.

"He seems to like you." Someone called out and you turned to see Connor and Aiden walking down the path. You shrugged and turned back to look at the horses in the pen.

"Our little pet isn't paying attention to us. How cruel." You heard Aiden say as he came over and stood on your right.

"I'm not your pet," You curtly stated and turned around to walk away. Instead, Aiden grabbed your arm.

"Stop walking away from us. Its very tiring to not be able to say more than one sentence before you stomp off." He sighed, still staring at the horses.

"Well maybe if you didn't insult me so much, you might be able to hold a conversation with me." You retorted as you pulled your arm away from him.

"(Y/n)," Connor said, as he stood on your left, "Isn't being our pet a compliment? That means we give you the most attention."

"I don't want your attention," You muttered, noticing Reed running back and forth inside the stable, "If I didn't have your attention, I wouldn't be in this mess."

"Mess?" Aiden inquired.

You gestured to your clothes, "Being a maid. Working at the palace. Having to be around you two."

Connors eyes darkened, "(Y/n), I'm getting very tired of you acting like we're not enjoyable to be around. I don't care about our means of getting you here, but you're here now, and you will enjoy it."

You turned away from him, not saying anything.

"Or," he continued, "Something might happen to that little child over there." He gestured to Reed who was happily grooming one of the horses that were now standing outside the stable.

You shot him a panicked look, "You wouldn't."

Connor raised an eyebrow, "Are you willing to gamble his life to test that?"

You bit your tongue, opting that staying silent was better than saying something.

"Ah, she really does learn fast," Aiden said as he walked over and patted your head, "Now, are you willing to show me that curtsy?'

You glanced at Connor who had his gaze on Reed. Growling, you slowly dipped into a curtsy, staring at the ground.

"Now that made my day. You're so adorable (Y/n)." Aiden clapped in delight before putting a hand on Connors shoulder and they both walked away from you.

They're manipulating me, You growled, clenching your hands into fists, They're manipulating me and I can't do anything about it.

"(Y/n). You're dismissed until we get back." Connor called and you felt the anger rise inside you.
