"This sure bring back memories!"

Simon walked towards his mother, looking at her mother's hands which were holding Rose's hands. his eyes demanded to let her go, it wasn't intentional though, but after seeing the mark on the women whome her son cherished so much made her a little anxious.

"iam sorry!" a quick apology came from Queen's side. which left Roseline shaking.

"you don't need to my highness!"Her eyes wide opened and her words which were braking, her blue eyes staring at his red ones. His mother asked him to join her to dining room at night. which he accepted obediently, without any questions or any attitude which made Roseline wonder if he is the Simon she knew.

"What were you up to?"

he asked walking closer and closer making her cornered. She didn't wanted any rumours, which will only cause her troubles.

"Can't we talk inside?" her words making him Smile, him observing her lips as she spoke.

"aren't you asking too much? I want to go slow."

her eyes which were avoiding the contact, couldn't resist to look at his playful eyes

"I didn't mean it!" she corrected him. he was having so much fun, seeing her all shy.

she had no words to waste on him, saying something will only give him a chance to tease her.so she kept quite untill he was finished staring at her and finally, steped back and asked her to go back to her room and warned her not to jump out of her room.

"if you ignore my words again, i wouldn't think twice to take you to bed, moon." his lustful threat caused goosebumps all over her body, she'd seemed uncertain and at the same time scared and embarrassed.

after confirming if she went back to her room, he left to meet Crimson at the place they had decided already, at the time he arrived Crimson had been already there, waiting his arrival.

"Can't you be on time even for once?" he looked pissed as if he waited for hours, Simon asked if he waited for too long, which made him smile broader, moving towards him.

"it's been three damn hours....Simon Drake!" he yelled, hearing his ignorant question which pissed him of, he was furious.

"hey! you said, you will never be angry with me. did you forgot?, you promised me Crimson."

he reminded him with a tricky smile and when he looked at him after listening to his cheesy tone, he could feel chills running down his spine.

"Do you still remember it... huh?" Simon came to sit by his side, it was at the top of the main tower of the palace, the place only two of them know existed, as they were the only one to visit there.

it was like a hideout, after spending a long stressful day, where they played their roles, they would meet here as two brothers from different mothers.

Simon handed over some toffees, making him Smile.

"it sure bring back memories!" Crimson said while taking one of the toffees.

"Do you still remember that day?" Crimson asked with a gracious look, facing at the moon. Simon could hear a boy's hateful words, lingering in his mind.

The boy was around 7, same age as Simon, he was pushed by the boy to fall down, on the ground.

" I don't want any brother...." he cried as he banged the door, leaving Simon in tears, before his mother could reach him, he wiped his tears and ran, as if he was trying to hide his tears.

The boy peeked through the keyhole of the door looking at Simon who ran away.

Simon was a lost prince, he was lost when he was around 3 years, after that queen was all broke, but to run the kingdom,King had to marry other women, with whom, they had Medusa. who wasn't powerful enough to sit on the throne, but the king had a younger brother, who had a son, who was around the same age as his lost son, after bringing him to the palace, the palce became lively again, and his arrival made queen's health better. but later Simon was found, and he didn't liked the idea of having brother.

Simon being new to the palace, not knowing the palace well, got lost in the nearby mountains and sat crying under the tree, his eyes were filled with pain of losing someone.

while the palace was not in a good shape, Queen was unconscious, after knowing Simon was missing again. it was his fault thought the boy, which made Simon ran off the palace, he went out to search for him with a candle. and found him under the tree weeping alone.

he patted his shoulder, which almost got him an heart attack, he jumped and leaped to save his life, and looked back only to find the boy, who stood laughing, he was the same boy who asked him to leave. he asked him if he was alright.and introduced himself.

"lam Crimson. Crimson Drake!" he smiled.

Both were laughing remembering the embarrassing yet happiest memories of their past under the moonlight.

"do you remember how much mother cried hugging us, and didn't let go of us Even when she was asleep?"

both smiled.

"where was he all night?"

Rose couldn't resist thinking about last night, she thought that Vampires have many lovers, and it was safe to think he was with one of them. but she could tell by only looking at him, he didn't had a sleep, which proves her thoughts wrong. she was thinking all night and fell asleep before she knowing.

She woke up after a good sleep, as soon as she woke up, her eyes searching for Simon, she was relieved that he didn't came to her room, as he always does, she got of the bed and went to the bathroom, soaking herself in, as the water pushed her breasts to float on the water, she heard a deep voice, which made her hide herself inside the water.

"be ready till I come back, we have somewhere to go." his words were very accurate, she couldn't be more embarrassed than this.

her face was all red, the first thing she did soon after he left was covering her body, with towel.

she walked down the bath, peeking outside, just to confirm he had left.
