(Even though I'm still mad, I'm still an author and these FICS still need updates. :///)

Preston snorted, bending over in laughter. "Oh! Oh! That's hilarious! Ahahaha! You, the Prince?! Hahaha!"

"What is that supposed to mean?!" Rob squeaked, offended by Preston's actions.

"I heard the Prince is ugly as fuck, and you're the cutest little thing I've ever seen. You can't be the Prince."

Rob opened his mouth to ask who dared say that, but shut up quickly as Preston advanced towards him. Against his own will, he cringed, intimidated by the taller Lava boy. They were almost the same height, actually. Rob was 5'9 and Preston seemed to be about 5'11.

"Are you afraid of me, Flower Child?" Preston asked with a grin. They were so close, Rob could see the amusement sparkling in his brown eyes. Preston laughed as Rob ducked his head, taking the other Prince's chin between his fingers and tilting his head back, locking their gazes. He was on his tiptoes, making him seem taller than he actually was.

Rob trembled, feeling Preston's hot breath on his lips. If he leaned forward just a bit, their noses would be touching. He gulped, squeezing his eyes shut. "G-get away.."

"Do I make you nervous?" Preston teased, smirking. In a bold moment, he brushed his lips against Rob's, wanting to see his reaction.

Rob jerked backwards, tripping over one of his own plants. He fell, landing on his butt. He was blushing like crazy and Preston's howling laughter was not helping. "Shut up!"

"You're so cute! What's your name?"

"I already told you! My name is Rob!"

"Doubtful, but I'll play around. Well, as I said before, my name is Preston. Yes, the Preston. No flash photography, please!" Preston waited for Rob to laugh. His expression was so forlorn and full of disappointment, stabbing at Rob's heart. He forced out a chuckle, watching as Preston's face lit up.

"You're strange." Rob sighed, standing up and dusting himself off. "You should really get back to your own dimension, Fire Boy. Your kind isn't welcome here."

"All thanks to the damn Prince of Flowers." Preston scoffed.

"Hey! It's for the safety of the Overlanders!"

"You mortals are so, so ignorant. You think of us as bloodthirsty monsters, do you not? Admit it."

"You're from Hell. Any creature there is horrid and evil." Rob muttered, looking anywhere but Preston's eyes. He could feel the judging gaze burning into his skin.

"Again, so ignorant. You do not realize Hell and the Nether are different dimensions.. That's like saying the Aether and Heaven are the same. It's not fair you allow those idiotic bird kids in here and not us Nether folk. You Overlanders speak for equality, yet you lock us away. Hyprocrites, all of you."
