Princess Lyn: Fleeting Dreams 426 Can he really do this?

"It's really a date?"

"Yeah."

At that comment Lyn pulled away slightly and took something out of her bag.

Is that makeup?

"..."

Rhys awkwardly looked away, uhh ... Wow... He didn't think she would react to that. So being forward works with her?

Lyn is the natural beauty type, even without makeup she is very beautiful. On the occasions she does wear some though, her beauty is enhanced even more. What does he do when she reacts this way?

"Doing this for me?"

"You did say it was a date...."

Rhys chuckled in her ear, "You didn't have to dress up, that's the reason why I told you it was a simple meal. I mean, I know it's a hassle."

"You must be an expert at I dates."

He quickly realized what he said and mumbled. "The female always has to get dressed up, but the men don't. Doesn't everyone know this?"

Lyn nodded, "I didn't put this on earlier because I wasn't sure. But now that I have confirmed it, what do you think Rhys? Am I pretty?"

Pretty? She's drop dead gorgeous. Rhys doesn't say anything as a reply, but he started to kiss her in several places. "Rhys.. What are you doing?"

"Showing my appreciation," he chuckled when he saw her expression. "Lyn, if you choose me. I can make you happier than you are now. Think it through, choosing me will be good for you..."

"Will it? I feel like you will harass me everyday," Lyn muttered.

"Harass eh? Turn around Lyn."

At that comment the girl turned around. Her expression looked conflicted and for a moment Rhys hesitated. No, it's okay. She won't push him away. Rhys confidentially started to kiss her cheeks, eyelids, nose. His hands made it's way down through the slit on her dress.

"Rhys.."

"Good girl."

"Rhys, I'm getting cold..."

Rhys brought his lips to her neck, "How does it feel love? Are you warmer?"

"It's a bit strange..."

'So innocent,' but Rhys is glad Lyn isn't pushing him away. Does she have any idea what he is even doing to her? Well he isn't doing much yet. Still, to think she would react this way. It feels like a dream...

Before Rhys could do anymore though, they hear the sound of rushing footsteps. Rhys wouldn't have stopped if Lyn didn't exclaim, "Kazuya?"

Huh?

Kazuya? Rhys glanced over and saw Kazuya wearing his thief attire and a bunch of people rushing after him. 'This fool...' What is he stealing now? Geez, "Lyn, wait here I will---" before Rhys could say anything though Lyn was already gone.

......

When he finally met up with the two, Lyn is severely scolding Kazuya. Kazuya wore his usual bright smile though, "Alright I get it.."

"You don't do you? My heart is going to stop."

"You said that last time, your poor heart."

"Jerk!" Lyn exclaimed. "Quit acting like a moron for. What did you take this time? Give it back right away!"

"If I give back now, they'll kill me."

Lyn sighed, "What am I going to do with you?"

"Hug me."

"Are you stupid?"

Kazuya laughed, "Well you removed my cloak, so now I'm cold."

Rhys quickly intervene before that hug could happen. "Hey, I sent for a carriage. We can head back to the castle now."

Lyn nodded, "Thank you."

Kazuya looked over at him, "Hey, you two were together?"

"We went on a date," Lyn answered for him.

Huh? Wait --- why did she say that so easily?

At that comment Kazuya's expression turned dark and he hugged Lyn. "I'm sorry Lyn, I won't bail on you anymore."

So they had plans? Did she do this to spite Kazuya?

"You better not! I'm warning you Kazuya, you need to stop leaving me alone."

"I know, I know. I'm sorry Lyn, forgive me?"

'These two are so stupid.' Rhys sighed, he's in a bad mood now. Then again, it's not like it's either of their fault. The three of them silently made their way to where the carriage was. He made sure to park it at the end of the street.

"Hey, why did you give her that?" Rhys asked.

Kazuya looked over at the item with the crest on Lyn's wrist. "Well, I'm serious about her."

"Yeah but..."

"It looks nice on her doesn't it?"

"Everything looks nice on her."

His friend laughed, "You really do like Lyn."

"Why are you so surprised?"

"I'm not that surprised. But," Kazuya looked over at him. "I was testing you, I wanted to know if you were serious or not."

Is that why he disappears more often lately? Is this guy--

"Idiot!" Lyn exclaimed.

She overheard huh?

"Kazuya, what would you do if I told you I liked Rhys?"

...huh?

Kazuya blinked, "Uh wait, has it really gotten that far? Damn, what was I thinking..."

Lyn reached over and pinched his ear and Kazuya yelped in pain. "I'm taking you to my eldest brother after all."

"Uh, hey don't change the topic..."

'Lyn cares a lot for Kazuya and Kazuya,' Rhys scanned his friends expression. He only has eyes for Lyn. Can he continue getting in their way like this?

"Hey Rhys, talk to Lyn. She's angry!"

"Of course I'm angry, that's why you keep disappearing? Are you this much of a fool? Believe in my feelings already or I will leave you first," Lyn kept shaking her head.

"When you leave, go to me right away."

Kazuya immediately panicked and wrapped his arms around Lyn. "Lyn is mine."

"I'm yours?" Lyn said with a skeptical expression.

"Yes."

"Idiot," Rhys mumbled. He saw the carriage from the corner of his eye. However, he paused. "You two, wait for me here."

Something is wrong..

It's parked in the same place as before but isn't the driver different? The old driver said he would stay inside the carriage and wait. But this new one is waiting outside. It's something minor, however... 'It won't hurt to be careful.' His thoughts broke off when he saw Kazuya heading over too.

"Hey, I can handle this."

Kazuya nodded, "Yeah, but I don't want to miss a chance to look good in front of Lyn."

Rhys blinked, "Huh, I didn't think you cared about that."
