Adele looked back up at the sky, where the sun was now nearly right above them. "People think it's so easy to be a royal, and we're both proof that's definitely not true. I just wish..." Adele sighed. "I wish life was easier. But again, we all do. There has to be something I can do to help my kingdom with that. But I don't know what it is." Adele thought again about what Caelan had said. "So... you don't want to be king?" |

"I mean, it's nice to be the next king but at the same time a ton of pressure, you know?" He said simply, shrugging "Being king is....challenging and a bit frustrating but rewarding in the end." He added after a moment of thought |

(sorryyyyy I have writer's block right now :/) Adele nodded in agreement. She didn't really know what else to say, so instead she changed the subject. "Did you say you had something for me? Or was that about the lemonade and food?" |

Totally fine, life is crazy rn...) "No, I really do have something I got made for you." He said, shaking his head and reaching into a saddle bag. He pulled out a pair of jeans, riding boots, and a loose blouse that cinched in just snug enough around the bottom hem that the blouse wouldn't catch on anything. "For you, Adele." He said, nodding his head gently and passing her the clothes. "They have no trace of Night Kingdom on there at all. No emblems, signatures from the tailor, nothing. I promise. I just...wanted to give you something that would make your life easier." He admitted, blushing a bit but keeping eye-contact |

(Oof. Hope it gets better soon.) Adele, sitting up, watched curiously as Caelan pulled out the clothes. When she saw what they were, her eyes widened, and a smile grew on her face. She let out a single laugh, a true smile taking over. Adele accepted the clothes and admired them, fingering the fabric. "This is... the best gift. Exactly what I need." She looked back up at Caelan, eyes shining. "Thank you." Adele suddenly felt the urge to... ...Do something that would break every rule of being the heir of the Day Kingdom. She barely resisted it, and looked back down at the clothes in her hands, face growing warm. |
