Chapter 5
"Yeah, I uh... I came back. Now I must leave." Jesse says as she tries to pull away from the blonde. His grip remains tight around her wrist. "H-hey! Let me go!" Jesse whisper shouts so she would not wake anyone up. "Look, I just want to talk. I don't want to hurt you." Lukas says and Jesse stops struggling. "...Alright." Jesse looks at Lukas' beautiful diamond blue eyes. "I'm gonna trust that you won't run." He says and lets go of the girls wrist. Her arm drops to her side and she looks at him. "Hello, Lukas." The girl says and Lukas rubs his neck. "I still don't know your name." He sits on his bed and Jesse follows. "Oh... My... my name is Jessica but everyone I know calls me... Jesse." Jesse says, knowing that she is risking lives talking to a day time but she also knows that there is something different about this boy than what she was always taught. Jesse and Lukas look at each other. "Y'know, you are very different compared to what I learned growing up." They both say at the same time then they look into each others eyes and start laughing.
"...Jessica?" Lukas looks at the girl.
"Just call me Jesse." She looks away.
"Alright. Um... Jesse, Why are you so different that from what I have learned?" Lukas asks and Jesse shrugs.
"I could ask you the same question but I'd rather get home before I get in trouble."
"If you would rather be at your dark kingdom, why did you leave me all those gifts?" The blonde chuckles.
"...I'd rather not answer that." Red spreads across her cheeks.
"Aw. You look adorable when your embarrassed."
"...Shut up... You do know I could end up dead from just being here, right?" Jesse backs up, back toward the balcony but she does not leave quite yet.
"Well, what's stopping you from leaving?" Lukas stands up and walks over to her.
"I don't know... But something is stopping me." Jesse sighs and starts to climbs onto the balcony ledge.
"When will I see you again?"
"Probably never... Unless you want us both to be dead."
"...Can you at least answer one last question?"
"Fine. Ask away, Goldie locks."
Luna paces around the castle, waiting for her daughter for their nightly lesson. "Ugh! Where is that daughter of mine?! If she is to become queen, she has to listen to me and show up on time!" Luna rubs the bridge of her nose. "Your majesty, I searched all over the castle. No sign of princess." Petra says and Luna sighs. Just as the queen was going to send out a search party, the princess walks in, humming and blushing. She has the goofiest smile on her face. No matter how hard she tries, she could not stop smiling. "...Wow. What has got you all happy, daughter?" Luna asks and Jesse giggles. "Nothing mother~ Hey P! I'll just be in my room~" She giggles before walking to her room, in complete darkness. "Something is up." The queen says and Petra looks at her. "No doubt about that, your highness. Want me, Axel and Olivia to investigate?" Petra asks and the queen shakes her head. "Only investigate if this continues beyond the end of the week."
