《Song For Two (Athanasia × Lucas)》Chapter 22
Advertisement
I felt breathless, it felt like someone was squeezing me, flushed cheeks with pinkish tint as my diamond blue eyes fell and was locked unto his red ruby eyes.
I knew for a fact that what I was feeling right now will be dangerous not for him—but for myself for I—I think that I am indeed slowly falling for Lucas. And with that much thought running around my head, I came back to reality. Snapped back to be honest, as my head quickly turned into an opposite direction, clearing my throat while the tip of my fingers slowly brushed through it.
"I-I'm sorry, was it surprising?" I questioned Lucas, and in that very moment I saw how a grin formed on his lips, as he shook his head. THUMP. THUMP. THUMP. Oh God, why is this happening!?
"No, not really. Seeing your eyes almost everyday, it does not surprise at all anymore—" I felt a flush of anger coming right through me as those words left Lucas' mouth, I could not even bare the anger myself as I slap his shoulder making him and me, myself shocked. "Woah–chill! I was just kidding." A chuckling Lucas lightly raised both of his hands, admitting his defeat. "Your eyes really does look like that man's eyes."
I raised my eyebrow. "Of course it does! He's my Daddy!" A puff from my mouth came out after I said those words with pure childishness making Lucas—who was already making fun of me, laugh.
"Why are you here, I mean yes I know you wanted fresh air but if I were you, you would go into another terrace where I am not there so why–why are you here?" His sudden question made me stop, as my ears became covered with deafening ringing inside my head. THUMP. THUMP. THUMP.

Why? Because I knew that I do not have the answer for is question, that I just wanted to be with him for some kind of unknown reason but being the stubborn child that I am, I shrugged my shoulders and crossed my arms against my chest as my eyebrows found its way to raise both, diamond blue eyes yet again was locked with his majestic red ruby ones.
"Do you own this terrace?" They both chuckled before continuing their small quarrel like they were kids.
Jennette's P.O.V
Oh, wow. It's been a while since I've felt this kind of flush and butterflies inside my stomach. I could not even look in his eyes, a few seconds has passed while I was dancing with Ejikiel and I knew, I just knew that he has now realized that I feel shy around him, h-how will I answer him when he asks me?!
"Are you okay-"
"It's not what you look like-" my lips blurted out while trembling, not letting Ejikiel finish his question making my eyes widened, I looked back up at him and saw how a small smile escaped his lips.
"You did not even let me finish what I was about to ask you, Jennette. You can calm down, it's just me." He smiles from ear to ear, THUMP, THUMP. My heart beat began to strike louder and faster as we continued to dance, swaying our bodies with the heavenly flow of the music. I screamed it inside of my mind.
Still, I understood that the moment his eyes left mine, it was looking for Athanasia. I do not hate nor was jealous of the Princess, I just hope that he also sees me, where I was right now, right in front of him, yet his eyes still finds away to land on Athansia.

"I-I'm okay." Finally having the guts to answer back to his question with a small smile, I tried my best to refrain the tears from falling down to my cheeks. "That is my answer to your question, Ejikiel." It felt like every single thing went slow motion as his eyes landed on me yet again and I sensed a sharp pain against my chest.
Those thoughts just kept running inside my mind, as I twirled around for the last time, I did not notice how tears suddenly dropped one by one, slowly yet with so much pain making Ejikiel, who just finished twirling me around freeze on the spot.
My finger tips tapped on my cheeks, I chuckled pitifully for myself before quickly wiping it away still, chuckling. "You could have told me if you feel something, Jennette. What is happening?" I saw how his hand made its way to my cheeks, but I softly slapped it, shaking my head before walking away as the music starts to fade within the air meaning that the dance has finally ended.
While walking away, my eyes saw Athanasia and Lucas laughing while talking. A small smile went across my lips as tears yet again flowed down my cheeks. "Have fun, Athy." I whispered beneath my breath before walking to an opposite direction for I knew Ejikiel was running his way to check up on me.
Athanasia's P.O.V
I looked back over my shoulder with both of my eyebrows furrowed. Blinking a couple of times, I sensed that there was this warm look earlier, was there someone looking at us? "Lucas, did you feel that someone was looking at us earlier?" I tilted my head, lips a bit pouted.
"I felt it too, but it is not like we were doing something forbidden, so nothing is wrong. We can use as much many excuses you want, Princess." I raised an eyebrow, crossing my arms against my chest making Lucas who was looking at me grim before shrugging his shoulders together with shaking his head while looking down. "I was kidding, Athanasia."
I took a deep breath before looking at him again, as I opened my mouth and popped the question I have been meaning to ask him, even though I knew what his answer was going to be. "Lucas, I have a question for you."
Felix's P.O.V
His Majesty told me go check on Princess's Palace, even though I felt a bit off about it for it was in the middle of the evening, I still did it. On my way to the Princess' chambers, I heard Lily's voice. "Felix." I turned around, with my creased forehead, furrowed eyebrows, I tilted my head at her. "I do wish to talk to-" She looks around before clearing her throat and bringing back her composure. "to you, can we please go to the Palace's garden?"
Quietly walking beside each other, no one dared to speak up. While my mind was busy running around, Lily who was beside me stopped from walking which made me do the same, as I slightly turned my body to my right, where she was standing. Completely facing me.
"I just wanted to tell you that--"
Athansia's P.O.V
"Do you believe for the song that two people have? T-Their-"
"I believe in it now."
