This festival was what he needed right about now. He was going a little bit insane so being around other people and maybe flaunt his wealth slightly, would make him feel a little bit better. With a smirk, Harold turned heel and walked through the double doors that led into his chambers then stripped so that he could take his bath. After that was done, he had dressed then waltzed over towards the floor stand mirror and reviewed himself. He was quite pleased with his attire then walked to his chamber doors and opened them, letting the guards present know that he was ready to make his entrance into the ballroom. The guards nodded their heads toward him as Harold proceeded to walk forward with at least four guards trailing behind him. Before he could turn a corner, his fanfare had already played and Harold walked into an explosive applause and chuckled lightly then smiled. [color=980C9D][b]"Thank you, thank you."[/b][/color] He said as he walked up the aisle, people bowing before him. Harold walked over towards his Queen, giving her a peck on the cheek then smiled towards her. [color=980C9D][b]"Hello there, my Queen. Enjoying the festivities thus far?"[/b][/color] He'd ask as his eyes went to everyone present then saw Earthica's King and Queen make an entrance. [color=980C9D][b]"You should really be mingling with the folks, my dear. I mean, look at Aamaya..."[/b][/color] He took a brief pause as he extended his arm out toward her direction then continued. [color=980C9D][b]"She's already getting to know the people around these parts. She'll make a great Queen someday."[/b][/color] Harold stated as he then excused himself and walked passed Aamaya, sending her a fatherly wink her way then went up towards the King and Queen of Earthica. [color=980C9D][b]"Your Highnesses. A pleasure to have you here."[/b][/color] Antonette giggled at his greeting as she held her hand out for Harold to grab, which he did and gave it a little kiss. Harold's eyes then went to Klaus and offered him a nod of greeting. [color=980C9D][b]"Mind if I take this lovely Queen and dance with her, Klaus?"[/b][/color] Antonette waved her hand in Klaus' direction then practically responded for him. [color=40AC4B][b]"Oh, he doesn't mind. Come on."[/b][/color] Antonette said as she grabbed Harold's hand then dragged him to the middle of the dance floor. The band had stopped playing their previous tune then quickly started to play on that the King found quite interesting, which was his favorite. He bowed towards Antonette and she curtsied in returned then they started to dance with each other. She wasn't expecting a dance with the King of Exodus but was happy that they were dancing together anyway. [color=40AC4B][b]"So, is it too soon to ask about your Kingdom's expenses for this party?"[/b][/color] She asked with a slight smirk and a raised brow of deceit. [color=980C9D][b]"No. I guess not."[/b][/color] Harold responded confusingly and with a laugh. He shrugged his shoulders as he looked down at her. [color=980C9D][b]"I don't handle the expenses. I am too busy running the Kingdom."[/b][/color] Antonette scoffed a little with an eye roll then pressed herself against Harold, whispering in his ear a little. [color=40AC4B][b]"Running a Kingdom can't be that hard, your majesty."[/b][/color] She then removed herself from being too close to him as they continued their dance. [color=980C9D][b]"When you are running the most expensive kingdom, it can be."[/b][/color] Harold commented to her statement then twirled her around before bringing her in closer to him. [color=980C9D][b]"What is it you wish to know?"[/b][/color] Harold locked his eyes with Antonette's now as she smirked a little while finding a way to wiggle out of his grasp. [color=40AC4B][b]"Oh, King Harold, I do not wish to know anything. I, too, have a kingdom to run."[/b][/color] She muttered as she curtsied and he bowed towards her as the song had just ended. [color=980C9D][b]"Don't forget, you were almost mine."[/b][/color] King Harold left that expression to cloud Antonette's mind as she stood there a bit stunned. She remembered the days when she and Harold were in love but now, she has Klaus and he has Vivienne so they were both good in her mind. Harold roamed around the ballroom for the moment as Antonette went over towards Klaus and stood beside him, linking her arm with his. [color=40AC4B][b]"Enjoying the festival, my love?"[/b][/color] She spoke sweetly toward him then glanced up to read his facial expressions. Just to see if he was going to tell her the truth or not.[/color]
