Jaakuna wasn’t sure if she was serious or if she was just pulling his leg. Regardless, Jaakuna knew he had to tell her what he was referring to. Like, seriously, this was something new for him too, but he said it and he felt that at the very least, he needed to address it with her. The two of them have been through a lot in these two days. It almost seems like it has been a lifetime, but maybe that’s cause it WAS a lifetime ago. In any case, Jaakuna spoke. [b]“You know, about what I said earlier, after you healed me.”[/b] Jaakuna spoke looking at her, then at the sky, then back to her and he saw her face —her beautiful, beautiful face.

Michel stood as composed as he could. He didn’t want to say anything that would land him in trouble, so he would just stand still and let the princes decide it out. After they had talked it out(sort of), it would seem that Prince Grant would go with Michel back to Archades. Michel nodded at the decision. [b]“Fine, then let us not keep my Emperor waiting. We should go now. If we hurry, we may make it to Archades before midnight.” [/b]He said as he waited for Prince Grant to follow him, and of course, until he was granted permission to leave. It would be rude if Michel were to do otherwise.
