Ambers fase flushed pink and her heart started racing. Amber released the arrown getting a bullseye. Amber quickly spun around and was about to kiss his soft lips when she stopped short.

“Why’d you stop?” Asked Liam, 

“Um, what?” Amber said, backing away.

“I don’t know… it was a great shot,” Liam said, rubbing the back of his neck.

“I just didn’t think you wanted me to… never mind,” Amber said looking at the bullseye. At that, Liam took ambers head in his hand . Her eyes widened surprised as she looked up at her prince. Liam leaned down and kissed her.

Kira and Jackson were following a trail down a river. Kira rode next to Jackson almost touching. After a few moments she leand over to jackson and kissed his cheek. Kira looked over at Jackson’s shocked face. Kira’s face flushed red and she raced ahead. Jackson took a minute to pick himself up then ride to go catch her. Jackson raced stuggling to catch up. He got close grabbing Kiras reins slowing them to a stop. Kira sat their looking at Jackson as they sat in silence. After what felt like an eternity, Kira broke the silence 

“I’m so sorry, I shouldn’t have done that,” Kira said, covering her face with her hands so he doesn’t see how pink she is. 

“No… it’s fine… don’t feel bad!” Jackson said leaning over and giving her a quick kiss on her cheek. Kira blushed hard and laughed, covering her mouth still embarrassed. They rode into the sunset headed back home. 

The next morning, the girls woke early and happily waited for the day's events with the boys. They were going to a royal event today and Kira and Amber were Liam and Jackson’s ‘plus ones’. They rushed to their closet to get ready. Kira grabbed a bright blue dress with white ruffles on the arms and skirt. Amber grabbed a fluffy pink dress with no ruffles. The girls had their own invitations so they didn’t need the boys. Later that day when they got up to the gates the girls handed in their invitations.The boys looked at eachother shocked because this party was reserved for royals all over the world and only royals. The girls quickly explained their royal status as they entered. Also, explaining the diamond crowns and facy dresses both the girls wore. They looked around the giant ball room. It was bright blue, with a tile floor, and a very high dark blue cieling. People scattered everywhere looking for their dates they invited. After a few minutes everyone found their dates and th emusic starts. The boys still taken aback and took the first two sceduled dances as normal. After a while the girls take their leave to go find their parents leaving the boys with their thoughts.  

“Wow!! I just thought they were really rich peasants,” Jackson told Liam, still in shock. Liam watched Amber from afar a little hurt she didn’t tell him sooner. Jackson felt the same about Kira but the two boys didn’t tell each other. Soon the girls came back. Liam snapped at Amber. 

“Why didn’t you tell me you were royal? Why did you wait until now? Why were you hiding this from me? Did you think I wouldn’t love you?” Amber stepped back suprised. She quickly composed herself then said. 

“I wanted to know you loved me for who I am. I needed to make sure you didn’t care about my royal status. Other princes think I’m just a prize to be won, I just wanted to make sure you weren’t like that.” 

“I just don’t know who you are anymore. This changes things. I-I-I need to go” Liam said walking away. Jackson seemed to take this news better now that he had time to think because he told Kira that nothing would change between them. Amber chased after Liam trying to explain.
