Heron Lake Plateau Only fools fall for you (and me)

Onai seemed puzzled by her lack of reaction to his gestures. Normally that would work. Had he really upset her that bad? Oops.. but as the conversation went on he watched her desperately trying to hold back a smile after he called her his highness that's when it clicked. She was being stubborn, and those his attempts to make her smile hadn't yet worked, she was cracking. Slowly.

He smiled. He liked the game she was playing. Emory questioned whether or not he had seen Jilaiya since the two last talked and he took the opportunity presented to him. "No your highness I have not," he began with a smirk. "You see I was too busy moping around because I just wanted to see your pretty face again," he mused his smirk turning into a playful smile. If there was one thing Emory loved. It was compliments. That was the one thing he knew for sure.

It was true. Well most of it. He had not in fact seen Jilaiya, and he had spent some time moping. Though emory might have had a slight part in it. Most of it was reflecting on his past and all the ways he screwed up with Aspen and the consequences of those actions. Ironically the first thing Emory brought up.
