Episode 3: The Suitor

Chapter 3:

1 year later.

Adrianna is busy looking for a book in their huge library, she is on the 3rd floor but then she still could not find the book she is looking for. Being a political Science students is very hard and tiring.

“where the heck was that book? Don’t tell that librarian is stupid enough leading me in a wrong direction?” she said to herself while scanning the book title in the shelf.

And when she spot the right book , she was about touch it when a manly hand touch it before hers. Damn!

Adrianna was so irritated because she is sure she has to argue to this person just for this book. She closed her eyes and ready to argue to the person.

“look, i saw it fi...” she did not finish her lines when she saw who is the other person who got his hand on the book.

Why of all the people, why him?

“Adam, .” She said while looking to the familiar guy. He is Prince Adam Nicholas Gonzaga Lancaster a Crown Prince from Denmark. He is Adrianna’s classmate in some of her subject , the prince is also taking up Political Science so she is not surprise that he needs this book too.

“Adrianna.” The Prince said, while looking straight at her. She doesn’t like the way Adam look at her, it seems like she was being hypnotize by those deep blue eyes of him.

Adrianna look at the book they both touches.

“umm do you need this book? You see I’ve been looking that for ages and i really need it. If it’s okay for you can you just lend that to me first?” she said, she has to finish her papers this evening so that she and Helena can go out this week end.

“we are classmates you know, i also need this as much as you do.” She took a deep breath, he is a prince he has to excel , looks like he badly needs it.

“fine, you can have it, just put it there when you finish i’ll just get it when you are done.” She was about to walk out when Adam said something.

“you know how strict our professor regarding about deadline right? Are you sure you can answer those questions in time? “ he said that makes Adrianna think again.

“what about let’s just do our assignment together so that we can share the book?” he Suggested. Adrianna look at him confusedly.

“what? Don’t you like being alone with me? If it’s not okay with you i won’t..”

“it’s fine, it’s fine with me y-your highness? Am i correct?” Adam just smile at her , and those smile caught Adrianna off guard.

He always saw Adam but he seldom smile to anyone. This is the first time she saw him smile.

“don’t call me that, we are both students here.” He said then walk ahead of her with the book on his hand.

Adrianna immediately catch up on him. “should i bow down to you whenever i see you?” she said, but then the guy did not answer her again.

“what the heck!!! Why are we here?” shock is visible on Adrianna’s voice when she learn the fact where they will study together.

“idiot, it’s against the rule to bring your opposite sex in your room are you aware of that?” she shouted Adam, well as you know the Idiot Prince just brought her in his room.

And it’s against the University Rule to bring someone your opposite sex in your room.

“can you stop shouting? Your voice will be the death of me, and if you don’t like to get caught, keep your mouth shut.” He said, she could not believe it.

“damn this, “ Adrianna don’t know what to think, will she go out and went to her dorm or just stay and answer the damn assignment?

“make yourself at home, i’ll just change clothes, you can answer right away if you like.” He said and went to his room right away, their room is huge there is only one inside , looks like Adam has no roommate here.

The room is so manly to the point that only black and white color can be spot on.

Adrianna just shake her head and begin to open her notes and answer her assignment.

She just finished the 2nd question when Adam went out from its room and sat on the chair that is opposite to her.

“the topic in question number 1 is on page 234.” She said while her eyes us still on her paper.

Adam just look and smile at her, seeing how hard working she is.

“tell me Adrianna, why did you took Political Science?” Adam ask her, she did not bother to look at him since she is busy writing and the thoughts is overflowing in her brain.

“my father insisted me, but it is okay i learned to love this program in other way.”

“i see, it sucks right, being controlled by your parents.” This time she look at Adam and Adrianna saw a rare emotion she hardly see in Adam. Sadness.

“yeah,” she doesn’t want to bother in Adam’s business but she can’t stop to ask why.

“was it hard? To be a Prince?” she ask.

“not really, but then if i were to be chosen i just wanted to be a normal citizen. Being a prince means more responsibility, you have to be responsible enough for your subject, just one mistake , one little mistake and it could affect your people, just how hard is that right?” Adrianna could not believe Adam is telling her that.

“How can they say, you’ll be a great King someday, you should do this, you should do that.

Were in fact how can i be responsible to my people if i can’t even be responsible

enough to myself.” He continued. She can see the frustration on Adam’s eye. Was it really hard to be a prince? And here she thought that being a royalty is great since you can have everything you want.

“well, you cannot give what you don’t have. Right?” she said to Adam.

“you are right.”

“gosh, what number am i?” she freak out when saw that she is not half finish with her assignment.

“come on don’t talk to me i have to finish this.”

“haha, fine, fine,”

“last question.” Adam said.

“shoot it.” She said without glancing Adam.

“can i court you?” she didn’t know why, but her pen stop working when she heard Adam said those words.
