Chapter 565: Chapter 565

The blush persisted as a soft comfort for both of us and we then decided to pay attention to the meal prepared for us, ready so we could enjoy it as we must and like I had become used to, the bites that I found delectable would be offered... solely that this time I hoped to learn which one was to his liking.

"Your Highness, try this. Its taste is so delicious!" — I naturally said, offering him a bite of a savoury appetiser that appeared to catch his eye for a second. — "I believe it will suit your taste."

"Oh... thank you, my lady."

"... How is it? From these, which one does the crown prince like more? Did you eat some of these that have eggs on them? I have noticed you prefer salty delicacies. Meanwhile, I am inclined towards sweets. I would like to know your opinion."

"... Sweets are fine with me as well."

"Truly?... Would you like some of this tart?"

"Yes."

After he ate the appetiser, there was no hesitation in his answer once I offered the tart I had on my plate. I served him like I would with Dad... with a big piece solely to see if he would truly appreciate it or instead would wrinkle his nose in reluctance for the certain sweetness it would own; looking at him while he tried it. Knowing for sure his brow would at least twitch at the sight for he was just saying that to please me.

"How is it?" — I asked entertained as he brought a piece to his mouth.

"... Delicious."

"Ph... Hahaha~ Your Highness, you do not need to lie~ It is too sweet for your taste isn’t it?"

"I want to try what my lady likes. That is no lie."

"Haha... Even so... We should do that, yes. But do not force yourself to try what I like~ We are different and like different things. That in itself is a wonderful thing, my prince. You should enjoy the dishes you truly like."

"I do not force myself, lady Marianne... I would never if it was for you. These you offer are what I most enjoy."

"... Ah... haha... his highness is very kind to say it like that..."

"It is the truth... What you offer myself to taste is what I most... enjoy." — He said, looking me directly in the eye with such thrilling gaze that turned into gentler shades... making me shy because of the sudden belief I came to have once he seemingly watched my lips while saying such. So much so that I went for a bite, all so I could distract my mind with the taste.

Nevertheless, he would gladly take the chance... surprising me with the confession of some of his notions. — "If I were to be honest, never have I experienced this necessity to have initiative. Whenever you grant it I hope to learn something... it is quite a delectable sentiment."

"... I... I might as well say the same, Your Highness..." — I replied, also feeling as if the sweetness were from his being than from the sweets on my plate. Silence came... perhaps aware that we needed a time so nothing more cheesy or embarrassing could come out. Being kinky who would continue to show how the initiative continued to drive his ways today.

"Tomorrow, I will not be able to share breakfast with the lady." — He said initially. Dropping my spirits when delighted without warning. But as usual, my reactions were too hast... and now, also visible to this man who quickly added the real purpose of announcing such. — "I was informed that the training for the front knights will be under my surveillance. Mornings will be difficult for myself to meet the lady... For instance, I would like to ask if the lady is available tomorrow in the afternoon. I have a wish to take you on a stroll at the vast grounds further into the Palace’s territory. That way we may be able to change the scenery slightly from the usual at the Empress’ Garden."

"Oh... I would love to. Would it be alright if I take my Po-... cough! Haha... um... s-sorry, I- something got on my mouth, ahem... may I take my canvas with us?" — Faking to choke briefly, I tried to cover my mouth. Reprimanding myself for my careless mind. — ’Oh lord... I almost say "Pockachin"... how embarrassing~!!’

"Certainly you should. The scene will definitely please my lady. I am sure that your hand will want to draw even if a bit of it."

"~! Now I am excited for tomorrow~ How thrilling. The Palace’s grounds are so vast I have been wondering how it is if we go further into it."

"... I could take you to the remote places I have discovered if you wish."

"! Please do! Should we take some snacks with us? Does the prince like apples? The ones I love are out of season, however it would be a fresh snack to have. Maybe eggs would be alright too with some sandwiches since the prince seems to like those~"

"... Does the lady like the idea so much?"

"Of course! It will be a splendid date to have!" — I said a bit too enthusiastic, seeing how he smiled at me purely but flirty as I named it as such... but fighting the fluter in my stomach I changed the subject as there were other things I had also been thinking about. — "Um, Your Highness, you said you will be busy training in the mornings then?"

"Yes...!? However, I will make it so I can meet with the lady at least a moment every day. Do not misunderstand, please."

"Oh... haha~ I was not saying it because of that, although it makes myself happy to know your wishes... I knew his highness would make the time..." — I said, a bit too happy for his jump to conclusions. Saying my real intentions, hoping he would indulge in my... completely pure and innocent intentions. — "I was simply wondering if it would be alright if from time to time I go to the training grounds... I would like to see where his highness spends his mornings at..."
