Make the Most of It
The Royal FamilyChapter 19: Make the Most of It
I laid my head on Tiffany’s lap as she my hair lovingly. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the sensation of her fingers running over my scalp.
We were lounging around in our room, just relaxing and enjoying each other’s company.
“I’m worried about my mother.” Tiffany said suddenly, her eyes filled with worry. “She didn’t look well when we saw her yesterday.”
I gave her a concerned look and sat up, taking her hand in mine. “Don’t worry, she’ll be fine.” I kissed the back of her hand gently.
She smiled. I loved that smile. And it pained me knowing that I would be leaving her very soon. I had to make the most of it, or else I would regret it for the rest of my life.
“Tiffany, let’s go somewhere.” I suggested.
She raised her eyebrow at me. “Where?”
“To the park, where we had our first date.” I smiled.
She nodded and smiled back.

We sat on top of the hill, as a gentle breeze blew by and the sun was just about to set.
I leaned back on my elbows and stretched my legs out.
“The sunset is beautiful.” She smiled, the orange glow of the sunset illuminating her face, showing a level of beauty that I didn’t think was possible.
I could finally say she was mine, even if it was for just a short amount of time. She was mine and didn’t want to let her go.
“Taeyeon?”
“Hmm?” I hummed as I felt the breeze roll over my face.
“Since you’re a girl, why do they call you prince and not princess like me?” She asked.
I sat up and looked at her as I thought of way to explain. “Well...because you were already a princess and there was no point in changing your title and I would be fulfilling all the duties the husband would within the marriage. I guess your parents decided?”
I wasn’t actually sure why I was the husband in the relationship, but I guess I suit the role better that Tiffany does. I’ve never really been a girly girl.
She nodded her head. “Does it bother you that you have to play the male role?”
I shook my head. Honestly, I never really thought about it. “As long as I’m with you, it doesn’t matter.” I said sincerely.
“Why are you so cute?” She said, leaning over and kissing my cheek.
I blushed slightly. She giggled as laid her head down on my lap and sighed happily.
“You know Taeyeon, sometimes I don’t know what I’d do without you.” She said with her eyes closed.
Why did she have to make things so hard? Why did I have to fall for her? She was just too perfect to be real. We had only known each other for less than 6 months and I already felt that I couldn’t live without her. I guess that’s the effect that an amazing beauty like her has on people.
“I dread the day that you will have to leave me.” She sighed.
I froze. As much as I hate to say it, that day would be coming dangerously soon.
“You wouldn’t leave me, would you?” She asked, her eyes were now open and staring back at me.
I gulped. How could I answer?
I shook my head. “I wouldn’t leave you, unless I was dragged away by a pack of hungry wolves.” I chuckled, masking how I was truly fe
