The river glistened like the wind, the sky flowed like summer water. The trees poured out in lush beams of flower, a rainbow eclipse of beauty. News had broken out within the city walls, the war was won their king had succeeded. “Say? Do you think we’ll get a share of captured land.” A small boy with golden hair said

“You will” smirked another boy, hazel eyes shining through his skin.

“You think so?” The boys itched closer the balcony suddenly shrinking.

“I know so” wrapping their arms around each other they shared a kiss. “Well I hope to share it.” They’re breaths moved up and down as their lips matched again.

The rock pools danced again, Edwodious skipped stones along the gentle river his partner and friend Hulius sitting loudly by the bank. “Come on you’re so close- not!”

“I really can’t stand you.”

“Then why are you listening to me?”

Edwodious rolled his eyes. “You’re lucky I like you.”

“The Prince confesses!” Hulius stood up a long smirk spread across his face as he runs towards Edwodious. They kiss, slowly sitting down by the bank together, every part of their body slowly colliding in a warm embrace. Breathless they split. “You’re, you’re an idiot.” Edwodious laughs.

“At least I know.”

Edwodious punches him on the shoulder.

“Ow.”

“What did it actually hurt?”

“Yeah, ow.”

“Come on” the Prince stands up, dragging his friend along with him “But I’m hungry.”

“Then eat something on the way.”

“Never” raising his fists into the air like a screaming toddler.

“Well then, you’re gonna starve.”

“How dare you” the boys laughed to themselves, for banter was a strong point for both of them.

Eventually the boys has reached home “Right, I should see father. I’ll see you tomorrow?”

Hulius nodded, with a understanding yet disappointed expression painted on his face. “Bye.” He gave him a hug, whispering. “I love you” in his ear. No response. Sunken Hulius walked to his bedroom, slightly alone.

Note: bit of a sloppy ending, oh well, and yes- I’m my own historian.
