“If I don’t get to be charming, than neither do you,” I said, smiling. My wine glass was empty and I set it down on the ground. “If you’re not careful you’ll end up with an entire parade of smitten princes following you around everywhere.”

“And has she told you what she plans to do with all these princes?” I asked with a chuckle.

"Not yet. I don't think she trusts me enough to divulge the purpose of her plans," I said, then laughed again.

"Probably. It might be in your best interest," I said with a grin. "And then again, it might not."

I shifted, moving just a little closer to her. “Oh really? What would be the benefit to me be?”

“Oh yes, that must have been it,” I said, chuckling wryly. “It couldn’t be that you are more interesting.”

I blushed and shook my head at the thought that he might find me more interesting than the queen. "I thought we had decided not to be charming."

“Wit and charm are trouble?” I asked, still grinning. I let my hand come up and lightly brush a lock of hair back over her shoulder.

“I asked you first, Elle,” I replied, smiling. This time my finger lightly brushed the side of her neck as I moved her hair back again.

“And now what should I do?” I murmured, my lips still close enough to hers that I could feel them like a tingle against my own.

"What makes you think that I have all the answers?" I whispered with a smile. Then I took another chance and kissed him, pressing my lips against his more firmly.
