Crecylla is confused. The guards that showed up her door were decked out in Floral Empire attire, and she's pretty confused as to what she did and why they were there. Cyrus walks over, and when he spots a guard from the crowd, he grins. Apparently it's an old friend of his or something. He invites him inside, and he's surprised to see the princess herself here. He bows, and Crecylla bows as well, the princess shakes her head. She wasn't anything compared to their ranks.
Crecylla finds that the princess is called Blossom. She's the second child of the queen and king, and her sister rules the kingdom before her brother can ascend to the throne. She has the freedom that Crecylla had wanted since young, and when she asks Crecylla how she feels, Crecylla tells her that she feels alive. She's feeling the best she had felt in months, and she just wants to continue down the road like this. She was thankful for discovering the place.
Blossom is a brunette. At first glance, she doesn't look any prettier than an average person in the empire, and her eyes don't look any more special than an average person either. But if you paid close attention, then you'd find that she had central heterochromia. Her eyes are captivating, and when you finally pay close attention you'll find that her hair is decorated with strands of gold. She was gorgeous, it just took someone with taste to figure that out.
Cyrus talks with them for the evening, and you find that Crecylla had actually met Blossom before. They had grown up together, and they had been really close back then. Blossom was her best friend, and when she ran away, she had actually forgotten to tell Blossom. She apologizes, and she tells her that she had meant to tell her, but she had been in a rush to kidnap Cyrus and yank him there.
Cyrus talks about how the guard had been doing, and he tells him that he wanted to ask Blossom out. He wasn't sure how he was going to ask her out, and he had actually come for advice before asking her out. She was known for managing a garden, and he had actually heard stories about how nice the forest area in Cyrus and Crecylla's land had been. He was hoping to ask her out at their place.
Cyrus signs to Crecylla to let her know, and Crecylla smiles. She decides to take her chances and take the girl for a walk around the farm. She takes her through the gardens, and then takes her through the crops. She stops at the peaches, and she takes a stop at the plums as well. She shows her the apples, and she shows her the pears as well. She makes sure to stop her whenever she can, and she makes sure to keep Blossom in the conversation.
Cyrus helps the guard set up, and he shows the guard any cute places that he could take the princess. He makes sure to leave out the one cliff that he and Crecylla always visits at night, but he lets him know that he's free to wander. He helps him set up a couple lights, and he shows him how to catch fireflies to put in lanterns. He wishes him a good luck, and lets him know that Crecylla would be bringing Blossom any moment. He leaves him be, and he wanders off.
Crecylla hands her over to the guard, and she wishes them luck. She wanders off, and she sprints to find Cyrus. She runs into the boy, and he drags her to the makeshift gazebo they had just built. He holds her close, and he sings to her. He sings about how pretty her eyes are, and how wonderful of a person she was, and she sings with him, about how wonderful it was that they were together. They had grown to love eachother, and there was nothing more beautiful than that.
Blossom is confessed to, and she accepts the confession. She didn't really mind if her parents got mad at her for falling in love with a guard, and she didn't care if her sister got mad either. She was in love, and she was happy with how she felt. The boy was happy as well, and when you find your own happiness, you find that love is simple, and that you just needed to show someone that you appreciated them for existing, and that you needed them in your life
Love had been a strange thing to all of them. One had grown up in a house under the name of 'tough love', which had tormented her, and caused her conception of love to be twisted. Another had grown up in a family had didn't spend time with eachother, a family that was purely business. One had grown up in no familiy, growing up on the streets, and learning to fend for himself. Another had learned that she didn't matter, and that no matter how hard she tried, she would never be her sister. One had found love in a woman that didn't love him, and one hadn't found love in anyone around her. By faith they had met, and by the stars they had fallen in love.
Love stories were never easy, love isn't an easy task in general. But if you somehow manage to pull through, then you'll find that your rewards are greater than your loss. You find that at the end of the day, it didn't matter what type of a household you grew up in. There was always someone out there who was destined to teach you how to love. Love wasn't a major, and it wasn't a subject that you could understand instantly, you had to be willing to learn it, and you had to meet someone who would be patient with you. It just so happened that there was someone out there destined for all of them.
