The Prince & I: The Prince & I Season 1 - 5
The Power of Love
"Could Rey be willing to abdicate in pursuit of me, or even glad I ran away from here?"
Princess Zoy, aka the tomboy Joy, continued to run with magical powers that she did not realize because her legs suddenly moved by themselves, as if they did not care about her shoes that were quite high. He arrived at the rose garden of the palace, gasping for breath, looking back, who knew there were bodyguards or event supervisors chasing after him, then subdued him.
His sight was back to normal. Breath too.
He's not just afraid of not being able to dance. He was already not strong enough to harbor disappointment why Prince Rey invited Princess Chelsea to their date, and why they ignored him and were engrossed in chatting alone.
He wants a hint or a little special attention from Rey, whether Rey still loves him like a few months ago or if he has changed his mind.
Moreover, Rey until now has not opened her sunglasses, so Joy never know whether Rey noticed it or not.
"Who knew this show was deliberately made to get rid of me, because Rey couldn't bear to kill me directly. So with my ejection, she could seamlessly be with the princess she now likes."
Uh, Chelsea. Although from the story of Princess Agnez, his new best friend, Joy knows that Chelsea was indeed close to Rey, but Rey never wanted to be with Chelsea. Although they were often betrothed, they were predicted as the future King and Queen of Evertonia. Although he said Chelsea had been a model for Rey when Rey first liked the camera.
The chemistry between Chelsea and Rey during the dance was also 'probably' there. Just 'maybe', because Rey wears sunglasses so no one ever knows if she stares at her partner while dancing or not.
"JOY !!! Apparently you're here !!!"
"REREY !!!"
Joy flinched, almost jumped.
Rey turned out to quietly come out of the palace following him, her breathing was a little breathless as well. And miraculously, he doesn't wear his 'cool but ugly' sunglasses anymore. Her narrow but sharp and sexy eyes now look directly into the eyes of Joy coated with softlens. Joy could not take her eyes off too. Glazed.
"I'm sorry about last night. I'm actually just testing you." Rey said as gently as possible, her tone was no longer as formal as yesterday. Just like Rey used to be. "You look so beautiful, Joy. I really like it."
The young man approached. He looked handsome in the uniform of the white-golden prince, like the princes in the Disni stories. But this one is real, and far more alluring than the princes in any movie.
But Joy reflexes away.
"Rey, me, me." The girl was still hesitant. "Are you still the old Rey? IT students I know randomly through chat and then we call, SMS, chat and email, then exchange photos, then meet and date?"
"Of course."
"Did you still not only like me, but love me?"
Rey approached, and immediately grabbed Joy in her arms. Deg.
"I can feel your love for me." Rey once again said that, holding Joy's chin, about to kiss her.
Deg.
"Rey, but... I'm here to realize, I'm just a fake princess, an asphalt princess, just a bully among roses, not worth it.."
Rey stopped Joy's words with a kiss. Long, warm, and her lips soft. As if there was tens of thousands of volts of electricity stinging, like an almighty magnet sticking tightly and unwilling to escape between the two of them.
Duh, embarrassed, but Joy's frozen heart melted instantly like an ice flower exposed to direct sunlight, melting to the point of exhaustion.
"Eh, I'm sorry, I miss you." Joy's lips finally removed. "There's CCTV."
They both laughed. "Ah, stupid shit." Rey smiled, her eyes curved upwards, sweet as two upside-down crescent moons.
"Rey, I can't dance." I'm Joy in a small voice. Her lips still felt soft. But he was very happy, because he had 'ignored' with Rey. And now he's convinced that Rey still loves him, even more than she used to.
"A ha ha ha ha." Rey laughed again, giving Joy some surprise. "What a coincidence, so I can give you a crash course, instant, right here."
"Really?" Joy suddenly nodded again.
Rey approached again, took a position and set up Joy's arm. "Look. Slowly, we learn simple things. One arm on my shoulder. One hand holding my hand. Then my hand's on your waist, doesn't matter, does it?"
Then they moved slowly, left-right, occasionally spinning as Rey instructed. Their eyes looked at each other. Joy was amazed, just this time she danced with her lover. At home they used to watch DVDs, play video games or cook together, this time they are like a couple in fairy tales.
"A ready? Easy right, let's go back to the room and finish the Royal Game. I'm not gonna give you any ease, you love a challenge and I know that. You're not 'alpha lion' 'female cat'." ledek Rey.
"Gerrr. The lion. My hair is right." - Joy was upset. "Come on, we'll beat them up!" Joy this time felt sad. Trust yourself, trust Rey. His energy, spirit and strength had already returned.
Believe in the power of love.
The two of them joined hands to re-enter the ballroom.
