She couldn’t help the laughter, the enjoyment of spending this time with him. A part of her kept forgetting he was a Prince, that she probably should be a bit more cautious around him but then that wasn’t her. That wasn’t who she was and if he didn’t like it, she would have hoped he would have told her by now, no she was sure he would have said something. 

The laughter did not stop, she watched as he wiped the chocolate ice cream from his nose, hand still shaking as she held up the ice-cream for him to try. [color=f49ac2]“H-Hey!”[/color] Jolting from the poke in her side as she giggled some more, she couldn’t help it she was incredibly ticklish especially on the sides. Eyes lit up as she felt his hand on hers, steadying it so he could try the ice-cream and she could feel her steady heartbeat. A part of her felt like this was romantic, this could be taken as a date or the wrong way especially feeding each other ice-cream, although she had swiped her portion from him. [color=f49ac2][i]It’s not so bad, considering this a date? Does he feel the same? But what about E? He has to be an ex surely; I would have remembered if I was dating someone. Right?[/i][/color]

Listening to his remarks on how it wasn’t bad she couldn’t help but smirk, he loved the chocolate mint through and through but that wasn’t a bad thing. Feeling the rush die down she glanced down at their hands, his hand was still in hers and he was quite close. Close enough for her to realise she felt a little flustered, a little hot under the collar. Eyes glanced at his lips, a part of her wanted to kiss him. 

[color=f49ac2][i]I can’t have a boyfriend, man up Iris! Go for it.[/i][/color] Although whilst she was thinking she turned back to look at him, he was leaning closer, her heart began to hammer in her chest. Feeling the squeeze of his hand her heart began to flutter, cheeks tinged red and she closed her eyes out of instinct. It was so close, she just wanted to feel his lips against hers. It never came, instead she heard the sound of an alarm and it made her jump back not expecting such a noise. 

Opening her eyes as she came to her senses she watched as he unclipped some sort of device from his waist, it had to be something important. She could still feel her heart in her chest and a part of her was disappointed that the call had come through, it was typical timing but maybe it was for the best. Grimacing at the idea of the paparazzi making this into some huge story she could already imagine his father not being too pleased, he didn’t trust her. 

Biting her lip as she watched him talk to the earpiece, she wondered what was going on, it seemed serious. Looking down at her hands it was hard not to feel disheartened over their almost kiss, would the moment ever happen again? It was doubtful especially as surely someone by now would be looking for her. She hoped anyway. 

Being torn from her thoughts when she heard Caspain speak to her she looked up smiling slightly, hoping that the blush had gone from her cheeks. [color=f49ac2]“Rebels…”[/color] She had heard that name before, she knew that these were some sort of bad people, but it was ringing some sort of bell to her which was worrying. Maybe she was just overthinking things as per usual. Frowning up at Caspain she took his hand that was helping her up saying her thanks, [color=f49ac2]“Oh? A hover car? I don’t think I have.”[/color] Smiling slightly as she felt the warmth of his hand before letting go. [color=f49ac2]“What happened? Is your father okay?”[/color]
