Keep Your Head Up Princes (1/2)

He slowly move to the carriage, his heart beat within him at such a giddy rate, which he conclude why he can’t hear anything or maybe it’s because of his surrounding is in silent right now but either way he is really nervous,By the time his feet touch the ground, he look around people looking at him judgingly, glares everywhere he look he wonder what’s wrong, suddenly his confident fade like an air, he look down to his feet, vigorous private debate was being conducted in his head right now, he suddenly felt his decision had been wrong, wrong for a dozen different reasons, in his heart he might be feeling as hopeless as a condemned man on his way in his execution, he want to claimed back to the carriage and ride back home, or fly if it’s possible, he really want to go home immediately (even when his parent and joonmyun get left out) he suddenly feel a hand in his shoulder, squeezing it, then he look up to see his father looking at him, encouragingly, then he move his eyes to look at his mother whose smiling at him right now, then to joonmyun looking at him confidently,They may not see his face right now, but a gleam of unstoppable Irish determination shining from his eyes right now, he smile at them, thankfully.

yes, he thought, and right now his heart was throbbing with misery to know the path he must take,

but, at least he was making his way there with chin up and head high, he must face the truth and face it with dignity.

Then zitao start walking, each stepS he take scream confident.

Yifan is really tired right now, the person inside that carriage is taking a year stepping out, he sigh and drop his head, he just want to take a rest for tonight’s event, suddenly he felt his surrounding change. bewildered, he look up.

and there it was, the person he's been waiting for to come out, looking like a vampire in all clothes like afraid to show his skin to the sun even his hand have gloves,Confuse, yifan look around, to see people whispering to each other, he also did not miss how his parent look at each other with raised eyebrow, then he look back to the person who’s taking another year looking at the ground, rolling his eyes, he want to drag that person and get this over with,But then it started walking (yeah walking at last), like walking as if it owned the whole world, which frustrate him more, how dare that person walk like that as if it did not just make an important people wait!

Yifan could feel his confusion and bewilderment growing as the said person stop in front of them (now bowed head).

he raised one straight eyebrow, there’s something about this person disturbed him deeply and he could not quite analyze what it was.

As they stop, Zitao immediately drop his head, walking like that with people all around you looking at you weirdly and kame whisper, was unspeakable torture(for him), he suddenly lost his energy,As he wonder if they are still looking at him, he look up and start looking around and sure enough they are still looking at him,

He suddenly feels uncomfortable knowing there are people staring at his back, he look at joonmyun who is listening to the exchange of greeting of his parent and the king and queen of shanghai,

but as he move his eyes to the queen of shanghai shoulder, two pair of eyes snapped together like castanets, as their parents and joonmyun talking to each other neither of them notice the staring contests that the two prince are now doing,

Curse and Damnation! Zitao swore to himself, the breath left his body, the man before him was pure aristocrat, a perfect specimen, a beauty of which could bring tears to everyone's eyes.

Suddenly he was aware of a striking change in him, he feel quite unafraid, his original nervousness of this wild new place somehow magically all melted away, by just looking at this pair of hazel eyes,

At least one good thing had come out of this chaos, zitao thought to himself. He could look through that pair of eyes all day and then all his nervousness would go away, just the thought of that make his heart jump in excitement and make him giggle, it take a lot of effort for him to stop himself from screaming,

Zitao felt his heart freeze within him, as his mother motion him to come closer, to be introduce, wordlessly he obeyed.

“And this is my son, Zitao,”queen victoria said with a cheerful voice.

“ah yes, zitao it is, it is a great pleasure for you to finally joined us,” said Queen jisoo.

“the pleasures mine your highness,” answer zitao with a bowed head, “ah, such a polite kid,” queen jisoo sigh, then motion her son to come closer, ”this is my son yifan”,

If such a thing is humanly possible this yifan guy was even more handsome close to.

The moment seemed to go forever, and with a lot of (and l mean a lot) of effort, zitao pulled himself together, as he tentatively offered a hand, “hi nice to meet you,”

Yifan snorted at this and look at zitao up and down, rolling his eyes, and ignoring zitao outstretched hand, he said “ l have already wasted too much time on this nonsense, l am already late for my other appointment,” and with that he turn his back and start walking,

but before he walk long, his mother stop him “why yifan dear, that’s not very nice of you, apologize now,” his mother demand with a warning look,
