Graysia - Prince of Snowphilia - Moon End
Chapter 6 - Returning Together
After looking at each other for a while, Graysia-kun averted his eyes from me. Right now, he was looking at the Snowphilia castle...
(Earlier, it seemed like he wanted to say that he wants to return to the castle, but...)
MC: Um... Are you okay? You have to return to the castle.
Graysia: I wonder...
When Graysia-kun crossed his arms, his fingers tightly gripped them.
(Graysia-kun... Could it be that he doesn't want to return alone?)
With a little courage, I smiled at Graysia-kun.
MC: It's okay, how about we go back together? I'm sure that your older brother is worried about you.
Graysia: Together with me?
MC: Yes.
Graysia-kun blinked repeatedly in surprise.
(I wonder if he'll come along...)
Graysia: ...
After Graysia-kun stayed quiet for a while, he shook something off and looked at the Snowphilia castle again.
Graysia: You're right, let's go. I can't stay away forever.
I nodded towards Graysia-kun's words.
Then, the two of us proceeded to head to the castle.
When we got through the side door of the majestic castle gate, the remnants of the castle looked at Graysia-kun.
Court Lady: My...!
Minister of Snowphilia: W-What...!
Every one of them became surprised...
Chapter 8 - Saying My Name
When the people saw Graysia-kun, they all became surprised. Then...
Court Lady: Prince Graysia... You're all right!
Minister: Every one of us was worried about you! Now then, we should let everyone know...
At that moment, it became noisy all around us. In the middle of the hall, we saw people who had heard of Graysia-kun's return. They were all saying how glad they were about Graysia-kun being safe with satisfied smiles and tears.
Graysia: ...
MC: They all wanted to see you for themselves.
After I whispered that to him from behind, Graysia-kun blinked and turned towards me...
Graysia: Yeah... It seems that way, MC.
MC: ...!
(Just now, Graysia-kun... Did he just say my name for the first time?)
MC: I'm happy, you said my name.
When I told him that as I smiled at him...
Graysia: ...!!
Graysia-kun widened his eyes and stood still.
MC: What's wrong?
While thinking that it was strange, I looked at his face and...
Graysia: I-It's nothing...
He quickly turned the other way.
(Graysia-kun...?)
I noticed that his ears were somewhat red...
......
After the news of Graysia-kun's return has reached the king of Snowphilia, I stayed in the kingdom for a couple more days as the Traumerei Princess and as the prince's benefactor.
As the days went by, I've been feeling uncomfortable. Like for example...
MC: Ah... Graysia-kun!
Graysia: ...What?
MC: Today, the castle guides are taking me to the Snowphilia museum, you should too...
Graysia: ...I'm busy. See ya.
MC: Ah...
Whenever I would see Graysia-kun, he would suddenly become cold towards me...
When I sat down in a chair in the room that was prepared for me, I rested my chin in my hand.
(I wonder if I did anything to rub Graysia-kun the wrong way.)
As I was thinking about him, I remembered the time when the two of us were skating in the lake.
(During that time... The distance between us felt close.)
Just as I sighed deeply at that moment...
??: MC-sama.
I heard someone along with a knock on the door.
MC: Yes?
When I opened the door, Graysia-kun's servant was there.
Servant: Graysia-sama is calling for you... Pardon me, but please come with me.
MC: Eh...?
(What's going on...)
I was surprised by how loud my own heartbeat has become. After I took a deep breath, I stared to walk towards Graysia-kun's room...
Last Chapter - His Thoughts
Servant: Now then, if you'll excuse me.
MC: Eh? Um...
Once we arrived in front of Graysia-kun's room, the servant walked off into the hallway soon after.
(What should I do, I don't know what to do...)
After I looked at the door to Graysia-kun's room for a while...
(...I have to talk to him properly. If I did something that made him mad, I'll have to apologize.)
As I gripped my hand tightly, I knocked on the door. Then...
Graysia: ...Come in.
After hearing his blunt voice from the inside, I opened the door...
MC: ...Pardon the intrusion.
Graysia: Yeah...
Over at the big sofa was Graysia-kun. Although, he wouldn't look at me.
MC: Um...
I wanted to get things over with, but I couldn't speak for some reason.
(Why...)
I looked around the room and saw large amounts of books in a corner.
MC: Graysia-kun, those books over there... Do you like to read?
When I spoke up, Graysia-kun raised a brow.
Graysia: Not really. It has nothing to do with you.
MC: I-I guess so.
Graysia: ...
Graysia-kun's attitude made it pretty clear. Even so, his red eyes wouldn't look over here.
(Did I do something to make him hate me? If that's the case, then I have to hear it from him properly...)
When I thought of that, I decided to hear it from him.
(I... I'm scared. Being hated by Graysia-kun.)
As I was feeling pain, I hung my head down to avert my gaze from him.
MC: Um... I'm sorry, I'll just be on my way.
While enduring to stay in place, I said that. Then...
Graysia: Huh...? What are you talking about?
MC: Ah, I-I'm sorry!
When Graysia-kun made an uneasy look, I bowed and tried to leave the room quickly, but then...
Graysia: Hold it.
MC: Eh!?
Along with hearing the wall being hit, when I turned around, I ended up being between the wall and him. Graysia-kun narrowed his eyes in irritation... Within the distance, I can hear him breathing.
MC: Graysia-kun, why...
Graysia: That's my line, why were you trying to get away just now?
MC: Eh... That's because you were mad...
Graysia: ...I'm not mad.
MC: T-Then, why... Why were you being so cold to me?
Graysia: ...That's your fault.
MC: Mine...?
As he was trying to get to the main point, when I looked at his face at a close distance, he quickly looked away from my face.
(His cheeks are red...)
Graysia: This is the first time... that I have met someone like you. I guess you can say... The time when I saw your smile, I couldn't speak well. Dammit... Even though I'm part of the noble Snow household, my heart goes crazy because of you...!!
(Then... The reason he was being cold to me was...)
After figuring out that answer, my cheeks became red as well.
Graysia: Still... Without you by my side, I can't calm down.
He held my hand tightly.
Graysia: So, don't just leave my side like that.
MC: ...!
As his usually pale face turned red, the words that he said angrily sounded pretty affectionate.
(This is the first time... that I've seen Graysia-kun like this.)
Just as I thought of that, my heart skipped a beat happily.
MC: Okay... I'll stay by your side.
Graysia: Why are you so happy?
MC: Because you don't hate me.
He grabbed his hair in embarrassment from those words.
Graysia: ...Sorry.
Seeing how cute he was behaving made me break into a smile.
Graysia: Why are you smiling?
The words that he said angrily gave me some comfort when I heard them just now...
MC: I'm sorry. I...
Graysia: ?
Due to my own feelings, I tried looking for a clear answer.
MC: I want to know more about you.
When I looked at Graysia-kun with a smile, his face was no longer red...
Graysia: ...Idiot. Hey, come here.
MC: Okay.
After Graysia-kun reached for my hand and held it, the two of us sat down on the huge sofa.
(Such a warm hand...)
As I felt that, his hand became stronger...
MC: !?
My hand was strongly pulled and I ended up falling on top of Graysia-kun's chest.
MC: G-Graysia-kun!?
As I supported myself on his chest and looked up at his face, his red eyes got closer to me. Then...
MC: Mm...
Without saying anything, he pressed his lips against mine.
(Graysia-kun...)
When our faces slowly parted from each other, Graysia-kun looked down at me with his passion filled eyes...
Graysia: If you want to know more about me... I'll tell you.
Then, he kissed me again.
(Even though he was cold earlier...)
As I accepted his heated passionate feelings just now... I wrapped my hands around his back with the thought of me spending time with him and getting to know him some more from here on...
