Fresh sighed as he stepped outside of his house and pulled a flyer stuck to the door off. He was pretty sure he knew what it was for but he went and read it anyway.

The flyer read:  'The crown prince will be picking someone to be his queen when he becomes king in two month! Anyone and everyone ages fifteen though seventeen are welcome to the palace today, March 17th through May 17th between ten a.m and three p.m! Don't miss out on your shot!'

Fresh laughed and stared at the flyer up after he finished reading it. By 'anyone and everyone' they really meant someone that came from a family that was well respected. They couldn't have just anyone marry their son. Fresh happened to be in one of the respected families. They were only respected for some companies and places they owned. His family was very smart and those smarts got passed down to him. Fresh was still in high school at the moment. He had the highest grades in the school and he was labeled as a 'nerd' but no one would ever call him that to his face since his family was respected. Fresh didn't mind the label because that's what he was. Everyone used it as an insult but Fresh just took it as a compliment so he didn't care if they were trying to insult him. It didn't bother him.

He folded the flyer up and stuck it in his pocket. He had been seeing these flyers ever since it was announced the crown prince of the kingdom, Error, would be picking someone to become his queen, but he never took the time to actually read it until now. The person's chosen would basically be Error's fiancé and they would have their wedding the same day he would be crowned king. Error was only sixteen but it wasn't uncommon for the crown princes and princesses to get married off at such a young age.

Fresh hummed and took a look outside. It was a nice day to go out to the park. He liked to read there sometimes. He walked back inside and grabbed a book from the bookshelf in his room before he headed out and started his walk to the park. He saw a bunch of people rushing to the palace on his way there. He could understand why. Anyone would want that kind of power, respect, and money. The crown prince was also good-looking so that was a bonus.

Fresh thought Error was good-looking as well but that didn't mean he wanted to marry him. It would be nice to have the benefits of marrying Error but while it was nice he wasn't one of those greedy people that married someone for their fortune and power. He didn't even know what kind of person Error was. Error could be a total asshole for all he knew.

After about ten minutes, Fresh got to the park. He looked around for a moment and smiled, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. He headed to his favorite reading spot, pausing when he already saw someone there. He was going to leave and find another place to read for the day but the person was sitting there on the bench looked quite stressed. He decided he would go and talk to them.

Fresh walked up and sat down beside the person, setting his book to the side. "Hey, are you okay?" He asked.

The person jolted and snapped his gaze down to Fresh. "Ah, yeah.. I'm fine."

Since Fresh was closer up, he actually got a better look at the person. They had dark bones, and red eye lights. They were wearing a dark purple hoodie that was zipped up, some black shorts, and some pink slippers. He looked similar to the crown prince and sounded a bit like him. The only differences were this guy didn't have multicolored pupils, dark blue streaks that ran down his cheeks, his voice didn't glitch like the crown prince's did, and he didn't have glitches floating around his body.

Fresh stared at the person for a good moment before he shook his head. "You don't seem fine. You seem stressed What's got you all stressed?"

Error tensed up when Fresh started to stare at him. Did his disguise fail? He relaxed when Fresh didn't seem to question him or anything, figuring he was fine. Error was stressed like Fresh said. He was supposed to be meeting people that wanted to marry him but he needed a break from all of that. He could easily see though everyone. They all put on smiles and told them reasons why they wanted to marry him like 'You're a great person' or 'I feel like we have a connection' or some other fake thing when all they wanted to as his power or money. He didn't even want to get married but he and no choice. His mom died long ago and now his dad was on the brink of death. Error was the only heir to the throne so he had to become the king. He had spent the last week meeting many different people that wanted to marry him. They started sending out flyers last week and keeping sending one to everyone in the kingdom every single day. He needed to get away from everything but he couldn't go out. He would be recognized instantly so he put on a disguise. He changed his clothes, covered up the streaks on his cheeks with make up, put in red colored contacts. With his glitches and voice glitching he had leaned how to stop his visible glitching and voice glitching a long time ago so that wasn't a problem for him.

Error raised a 'brow' at what Fresh said. "I'm sorry, but who are you exactly?"

Fresh laughed awkwardly and rubbed the back of his neck. "Sorry, Sorry, my name is Fresh. I come here every now and again. This is usually my reading spot-" Fresh said, picking up his book and showing it to Error. "-When I saw you here I was going to go read elsewhere but you looked stressed so I decided I would talk to you and ask you what's wrong. I guess I shouldn't pry into other people's business, though. It's just a habit when I see someone stressed or upset. I'm sorry. I'll take my leave now," He finished, standing up.

Error quickly grabbed Fresh by his wrist when he stood up. Even though he had no idea who this guy was he did need someone to talk to. Someone that could help him let it all of his stress out even if that person was a total stranger. "Wait! Stay! I mean, I don't mind if you stay." He left Fresh's wrist go with a sigh. "It would be nice to talk to someone," He murmured out.

Fresh smiled and sat back down beside Error. "Well, you can go ahead and talk. I'll listen."

Error nodded and leaned back on the bench before he started to speak. "Well, first off, my name is RoRo and I'm actually from a different kingdom. My parents want me to marry someone. I'm not royalty or anything but they're pushing me to marry the princess of our kingdom. She's taken an interest in me and since she has my parents want me to marry her for her power. It would help us out a lot but I don't love her and I don't want to marry someone that I don't love. I'm just being pushed everyday to hang out with her and my parents are pushing me to pop the question. I just wanted to get away from everything... so here I am." Of course, Error has to change his story up or that would give him away.

Fresh nodded. "Ah, that's gotta be rough. Actually, we have something similar going on here. The crown prince is getting married in two months and now everyone is rushing to the castle to meet him since he'll be picking someone to marry sooner or later. I would hate to be in his position. I don't know if he wants to get married or not but it's gotta be rough. I'm sure he knows everyone wants him for his power and want not. It would be nice to have all of that and the prince is really handsome but I'm not going to rush and the to marry him. I'm not going to marry someone for their power or looks. I don't even know the guy! I don't know what his personality is or anything! I just see no point in trying to marry someone you don't even know."

Error smiled at hearing what Fresh said. It was nice to meet someone like Fresh. Someone that wanted to actually know someone instead of marrying them for their power. He nodded. "I guess me and that guy are in similar situations then, huh?" He asked with a laugh.

Fresh laughed a bit as well and nodded. "Yeah, what an odd coincidence."

Error sighed and looked up at the sky before he looked down at Fresh. "Thanks for listening to me. It feels good to get this all off of my chest."

Fresh smiled and nodded. "No problem."

Error pulled out his phone. "Hey, do you mind if we exchange numbers? I would like to talk to you more."

"What? Oh, sure! I don't mind!" Fresh took Error's phone and put his number in before he handed the phone back. "There you go."

Error smiled. "Thanks."

The two of them ended up talking with each other for another hour before Error had to go. They said a quick goodbye before they went their separate ways.

That night, Error went to sleep completely relaxed. He would definitely talk to Fresh more. He thought he was a good person and felt that their new friendship would evolve into something more.

——————-

Two months had passed since Error and Fresh first met. They hung out every single day for many hours. They spent the time talking and having fun with each other. They had grown very close as well and the two had fallen in love with each other, but they never told each other their feelings.

Fresh never told Error how he felt because he thought that Error would be forced into marriage because of his family. They also lived in two different kingdoms and once Error went back to his kingdom then it would be harder for them to see each other.

Error didn't tell Fresh how he felt because he thought Fresh would be mad at him for lying about who he was and his whole situation in general.

Error sighed to himself slightly as he laid in his room. "It was May 17th. By the end of the day he had to tell his father who he was going to marry so he made up his mind. Today he was going to propose to Fresh. Even if Fresh didn't love him he knew that Fresh would at least become his wife to save him from having to marry some gold digger so that would be something to look forward to.

Once it was about eight pm he went ahead and texted Error. He told Fresh to meet him at the park. After that, he quickly got dressed and put on his disguise before he snuck out. He made it to the park in five minutes and sat at their meeting spot while he waited for Fresh.

Fresh showed up about ten minutes after Error. He sat down beside Error. "Hey, sorry for being a little late."

Error shook his head. "No, no, you're fine. Anyway, now that you're here, let's go," He said, standing up.

Fresh raised a brow. "Where are we going?"

Error put a finger to Fresh's teeth. "That's a secret. Just follow me."

Fresh nodded and also got up, following after Error. They walked for about ten minutes before they stopped. They were at the top of a large cliff that overshadowed the entire kingdom. Fresh looked around for a moment and then took a look at the stars before he looked at Error. "It's beautiful but why did you decide to take me here?"

Error scratched the back of his neck. "I have something I want to say.."

Fresh nodded. "I'll be listening."

Error took a small breath before he started to speak. "Over the past two months I've been lying to you. My name isn't RoRo and I don't live in a different kingdom. The part about being forced into marriage is partly of true. I'm really Error. The crown prince of this kingdom." Error pulled out a makeup wipe and wiped the makeup off of his face. He pulled out the contacts and stopped holding back his glitches. "i'M sOrrY I dIdn'T tEll You SoonEr bUt I Was scAreD tHaT iF I dId yOu'd bE rEaLly UpsEt aNd wOuldn'T wAnT tO sEe mE agAin.

Error let out a small sigh. iN The TwO moNths i'vE knOw yoU wE'vE grOwn ReAlLy CloSe aNd BeComE gReaT fRieNds bUt I Don'T waNt tO bE juSt fRiends AnyMoRe. I wAnT tO bE moRe thAn tHAt.

Fresh stared at Error, putting his hands to his mouth as he looked at the ring. He wasn't mad at Error in the slightest and he had so many things to say but there would be time to talk about that a different time. Fresh nodded as his eyes filled with tears. He hugged Error tightly. "Yes, yes, yes! I will!"

Error hugged Fresh back just as tightly and slipped the ring on his finger. He kissed at Fresh's face before he pulled the smaller into a proper kiss. The kiss lasted for about a minute before they pulled away from each other. "I love you."

Error nuzzled Fresh. "I LovE yoU tOo."

Fresh smiled and nuzzled into Error's chest. He rested on him and the two of them spent the rest of the night under the stars.
