{Your Point Of Veiw} "Your eyes are still closed", I ask my brother who is holding my hand and walking behind me. "Yes, but where are we," he asks curiously. "Well, open your eyes and find out", I giggle. Romeo gasps and his jaw drops. "You got another horse," he asked confused. "No, this one is not mine. This beauty is all yours", I say while rubbing the horse's back. "How did you afford this," he asks. "I found him," I lie. I purchased this horse from a man I met a few months ago. I don't want to tell my family about my newly formed friendship with the princess. For one thing, I'm not sure when I will see her again, and my parents have a tendency to use people, and I refuse to let that happen. "Can we go for a ride," he asks with a wide grin. I giggle at him and nod. I help Romeo saddle his partner and I saddle up Julian. "I'll race you into town," he smirks. "Oh you're on", I laugh. Soon enough we out both galloping through the woods laughing away. I let Romeo win for a while but when we are at the last stretch, Julian and I race past him. I look back and giggle at Romeo, but my head snaps forward when Julian brushes past someone knocking them over. "Damnit," I mumble. "Woah," I say making Julian stop. I jump off of him and run over to the fallen figure who is a girl. "Ma'am I am so sorry I wasn't paying attention of the-" "It's okay," she giggles as she brushes her hair out of her face. "Camila, when I said we would meet again, I didn't mean like this", I say making her laugh. I help her onto her feet. "Well, I was looking for you anyway," she admits. "You saved me a trip into the woods," she smiles. "Well, how may I assist you," I bow making her giggle. "I want you to show me what normal teenagers do on a beautiful day outside," she says. "Like what," I furrowed my eyebrows. "Like, freedom, what it like," she asks dreamily. "I could... show you", I say slowly. "Really? How would you do that," she asks. I ask for her hand and she gladly accepts. I mount Julian and I help her up. She wraps her arms around my waist and lays her head on my shoulder. I don't know why, but for some reason, this made my heart speed up. In a good way, I think I like it. "Who is this", I hear my brothers voice from behind me. I turn around and Romeo's eyes widen when he sees the princess. "Your Majesty", he gasps. "No need for formalities young sir, Call me Camila," she giggles. Romeo nods with a smile. "Camila this is Romeo," I say. "Ooh Romeo, I have heard many good things about you", Camila says making my brother blush. "From my sister? You two have met before", he asks confused. "I will explain later", I say. "But for now we are going to travel to Potters Crowe", I say. "Potters Crowe," Camila's asks. "It's a riding trail, it's beautiful," I answer. Almost as beautiful as you... With that, we begin the short ride to our destination, and as soon as we arrive I hear Camila's breath hitch. We begin trotting through the entrance and Camila admires every inch of our surroundings. We continue our walk further into the beautiful natural habitat until we stop at a very familiar place.  "What's this," Camila asks. "This is where Y/n was born", Romeo says and I hang my head. "What happened to it", Camila asks sadly. "Dark Majesty destroyed this place because of something our father dare not speak of," Romeo answers. "Y/n, my parents will bring her down," Camila reassures me. "We don't know that", I mumble. "I do, I believe it", she says. "Trust me on this," Camila says before placing a soft and tender kiss on my cheek. I felt sparks erupt through my body, it was an intense feeling, a mixture of pain and pleasure that is hard to describe. I don't know what it was but it felt right. We continue our journey and walk through the colorful part, where I would play with my father as a child.  We ride up a hill that allows us to look down on the beauty that we call home.  We got off our horses and sat on the ground, just talking. "Do you two come here often", Camila asks. "Not as much as we used to", I say. "Y/n would bring me here when I first started working. She said it was to help me relax," I nod as I feel a tear slide down my face. "What's wrong", Camila asks concerned as she places her hand on top of mine. "It's just that, the last time I was here, for once in my life, I thought I was truly happy," I cry. Camila pulls me into her chest and holds onto me while I cry into her shoulder. "It didn't last, because I'm not meant to be happy, and I never will be," I sob. "I am going to make sure that you will be happy if it's the last thing I do," Camila says. we both are startled when Romeo starts to clap. "This is such a beautiful friendship", Romeo says before wiping away a fake tear. At the word friend, I feel slightly uncomfortable. Do I not want to be friends with Camila? Do I want something more?
