Birthday wishes [X]

every now and then I get a little bit lonely and you're never coming round
I get a little bit terrified but then I see the look in you eyes
* - every now and then I fall apart - *

It went without saying that, out of all the current Kings of Vineheart, Xavier, as their former leader and founder, was closest to Dante, who he considered more of a brother than anything else really. But also, while he felt that way, he wasn’t as inclined to feel the same when it came to Bella. He understood that the Spanish prince needed time to adjust to these new developments, and would need some more time as well, which was why he had proposed the two year period in the first place, not because he felt so generous or anything, but simply because he knew Dante would quite possibly be totally lost without them. That didn’t mean, however, that he would be equally lenient once the two years were up, especially since he would then fly back to Germany from the US to begin extensive preparations for taking the throne. Regardless of his feelings towards Dante, they weren’t strong enough for him to be very generous about Bella’s continuous stay in Spain. Yes, visits were a must and obviously in order, but she was going to be his wife and his Queen, which made Xavier more than a little bit possessive of the girl he currently had his hands on. Literally. He was a patient man, and could be VERY understanding, but he had his limits as well, and he was sure both Bella and Dante knew that. After the two years were over, Xavier’s patience levels would probably be close to zero, if he’d still have any at all, which meant that at that point in time, someone else would definitely have to be prepared to take Bella’s place with Dante, or otherwise face the consequences which would entail a six foot six annoying giant in the picture.

He’s a big boy, you give him too little credit, I’m pretty sure he survives without you, he teased her with a smile, and life’s strange in that way. But good to know we’re on the same page, because after the two years are up, I’m taking you with me to Germany, whether I have to abduct you or not. His dark eyes sparkled mischeviously as he said that; but there was a very small grain of truth in it as well, then again there was precious little Xavier wouldn’t do for Bella at the moment, or ever. She was the one he’d been searching for, without him even knowing it. It was pretty interesting really, given that he’d always dated girls who were so far off the spectre of what she was that it was almost hilarious. But maybe he needed just someone like her to balance him out and keep him stable, calm him down and make him a better, more responsible person. He knew Anselm heartily approved of the match, and Tarti was actually starting to see eye to eye with him on that. Then again, now that the relationship and engagement had gone public, there was very little she could do about it, and it seemed his mother had decided that, if she had to live with it, she might as well concede defeat as gracefully as possible and help out. Xavier’s faith in her had sort of been rekindled at that, though he was a bit suspicious every time she brought Pirzi up for discussion with him, in connection to Sergej. There was just something there that bothered him, and he didn’t know what it was yet. His attention returned to Bella and he smiled when she seemed to revert back to being her logical self. I’m insulted, I’ve just been exhibiting the perfect self-restraint for a while now, he lamented with a playful expression as he tweaked her nose, normally I’m not as patient as I am right now. But you make a fine point; I’d like to make it clear though, that kissing you while you’re on the counter is much easier for me. His eyes followed Cosita as she snuffed around the bottom of the fridge and then went in search of something more exciting, and he laughed lightly at Bella, before he leaned in to kiss the tip of her nose, and gently lift her off the counter, placing her back down, There you go, all nice and proper now, he commented with a small, impish smile.

She was aware that X didn’t have to give her the two years, he could have very well said that Dante could handle things on his own and leave it at that. But luckily she wasn’t in love with someone who would do that to her, because Dante was like family to her. He was the brother that she never had, and she wouldn’t have felt comfortable leaving him to his fate without at least having prepared someone adequately for him. It wouldn’t be the same, training someone for two years, versus the lifetime of working with him. But it would work, it wouldn’t be the same, but it would be effective enough that she wouldn’t be worrying about him all the time. Even though she was sure there would always be a part of her brain that was freaking out over Dante because that’s just the way she was. She was that worrisome person who kept on checking in on him at every hour of the day when she was on vacation. Well not every hour, but she checked in at least once a day to make sure that his schedule was running smoothly. Still she had to be grateful with how understanding X was about this whole ordeal, and it honestly only made her love him more because he understood why she was the way she was. He didn’t condone her for being overly worried, and wanting to make sure that the person who took her place was adequately prepared.

“I know he’s a big boy, but we’ve basically been attached at the hip since we could walk so I know him better than anyone else. And I know how he can get if the person who is handing his schedule isn’t continuously pestering him with it” she said with a smile, “Abduction sounds kind of scary, so let’s not go with that”

Even though she was very aware that he was just joking with her, at least partially. There would be no need for abduction, she would very willingly go with X wherever he wanted. She tried not to dwell too much on the queen aspect, even if she was already being schooled on it by Vivien and some other people. Even though Ellie would probably her biggest rock through this whole process, after all her situation was similar to her own, so who better to go to than her best friend. But she pushed all of those thoughts away because it only ended up panicking her sometimes. And the last thing she needed was to panic in front of X, when she was supposed to be here to celebrate her birthday. She was now an adult, which was something different all together because it had always seemed like something that was so far away. Eighteen, but here she was, eighteen and engaged. Not that she regretted her decisions, she knew in her heart this was what she wanted and no matter the circumstance she was aware that X was probably one of the only people who could ever make her feel happy. After all she was pretty certain they were both very much outside of the type of people they were usually with, yet this was probably the happiest and most stable she had ever been in a relationship despite the long distance. But she was pretty sure that she felt that way because she wanted to make it work, because from the beginning it had all been so different for her when it came to X. This was all uncharted territory for her, but she was happy and she wouldn’t trade any of it for anything else in the world. Still she gave him a look when he said he was insulted, even though she was pretty sure he was far from it, especially when he tweaked her nose. She appreciated when he helped her down, though she rolled her eyes at his words.

“Well see I know it’s easier for you to kiss me on the counter, but you pointed out that it wouldn’t be a good idea to keep doing that, because of ammunition” she said with a smile, “So if nice and proper is a problem, remember it was your idea”

If he was honest with himself, he’d never seen nor met a person more accident-prone than Dante in his life, the Spanish prince just had a way with everything that made him seem like he was going to fall down a hole at some point just because he would try walking across a flat surface. There was no denying the fact that it amused Xavier to no end, especially since he knew there was much more to the other guy than met the eye. Dante was one of those people who could command the presence of the entire room if he wanted to, and yet could sink right back into the shadows once he was done. He wished he could say the same for himself, but unless he learned how to bring his height down somehow, there was no plausible way for Xavier to do it without attracting even more attention. It was probably why he’d learned, early on, that the best way to do things was in a straight-forward manner which would eventually lead him to becoming King of Germany. The less he had to hide, the better it was, and he certainly didn’t have anything to hide right now. He was engaged to the girl he loved, his family was starting to pull together again after some rocky turns, and there was of course the fact that things would always be a little crazy for royals whenever they were concerned about it, because that was just how their life worked. He knew Bella was well aware of that from the fact that she’d lived with Dante all this time, but he wasn’t entirely sure if she eally understood the pressure that would eventually come from being engaged to him. He hoped she wouldn’t regret it at any point.

Well I hate to break it to you, but eventually, he’ll have to learn to fend for himself; his PA can’t run his kingdom for him, he stated in a gentle voice, though the gentleness disappeared when mischief replaced it and he grinned impishly, Why ever not? That sounds like the perfect plan to me, then again I’m known to being a little bit more spontaneous than you are. But don’t worry, we’ll fix you up in no time. He patted her head playfully with the grin staying in place as he did so. He was enjoying the fact that he could rough up her schedule a little bit by random appearances, or simply just throw her off course by suggesting they do something entirely wicked or wild. Bella was so logical snd organised that Xavier felt like she was living in a cage or a box, and he was tearing off the lid all the time. Honestly though, he couldn’t have asked for more, she never did seem to complain about anything and she seemed to enjoy the surprises he threw her way. Seeing as it was her birthday today and she was legally eighteen now was also something to remember, and Xavier was already plotting ways to make it special for her. Among other things, he was considering evacuating Axel to some other place for the weekend, just because. It was one thing to have one of your best friends along for parties and whatnot, another when he was hovering over your date with your girlfriend. He was considering and plotting murder if Axel resisted by this point, though he was sure that, among other things, this wasn’t one of his friend’s traits. The Danish prince would probably snicker and go off without another word if asked, though for the time being, he would simply tolerate him to be in the vicinity. Besides, there was no harm in it ... yet. Sometimes I hate it when you’re so logical, he grumbled with a grin and kissed the top of her head before taking her hand in his, I’ll remember that for next time. For now, how about we put your stuff away and then I think Axel’ll probably be back with food. You’ll probably be hungry from the flight.

It was kind of funny, when she had said yes to X’s proposal, she really hadn’t been thinking about all the changes it would entail. But the more she thought about, it made more sense and well that was why she had thought that she had to train someone at some point. Obviously their level of training wouldn’t be the same as hers, but she knew that it was easy to train someone to be effective. It was all a matter of trying to make it work, and then finding someone who she trusted to do the job well. After all it was one thing to trust someone with her job after she gave it up, but it was something entirely different to leave someone in charge who actually knew what they were doing. And of course that was her ultimate goal, to make sure that whoever she trained would be able to help Dante in the way that Bella would have if she would have remained as his personal assistant. Still she was brought out of her thoughts when X started speaking again and he had a point, but she was pretty sure she would have never run the kingdom for Dante. She would have run his schedule, but all of that hard parts would have done by him, she was sure she might have been there are moral support most of the time.

“I know and he totally will run the kingdom on his own, since I would have never helped with that. But I mean it’ll be weird” she said, though she held back a laugh at his next words, “Well because being abducted is associated with scary things, like locking me up in a room and I’m pretty sure we’ve had that conversation before”

She was recalling a previous conversation where he said that he would have never locked her up in a room, though she had joked that she wouldn’t have minded if it had been a room full of books. Still it was nice to remember things like that, there had been so many different moments in the months that they had been together that had just made her happy. He had the tendency to just throw spontaneous visits at her, which she never minded but it had been different. Yet another reason why this relationship had been so different for her, there were so many aspects that just made it all the more special. Still that was one of the many reasons she wanted to be here with him, even if her birthday had already technically passed. But of course that’s what happened when your birthday was on a Monday, you really didn’t do anything too fun because of school and other things like that. But luckily she was here now, and she could still just as easily celebrate her birthday with him. Just being there with him was present enough and she was happy with that. Because the thing she missed the most was him, especially when he was here at Dartmouth and she was still within the Vineheart walls. Still she focused on him as he spoke again, saying that sometimes he hated when she was so logical and she let out a small giggle. She was sure that was something he would repeat to her often. But still she didn’t comment on that, merely shrugging a little before giving his hand a squeeze as he took her hand.

“Okay, that sounds like a good idea, though the food thing isn’t at the top of my priority list” she said, “I’m surprisingly not very hungry right now, but I’m sure I can cook something if you guys are hungry. Once he gets here, obviously”
