"Not your prince charming, from the looks of it," Xan says with a slight smile. I could feel his hand on my bare back, it had been driving me crazy ever since he laid it there. His skin touching my own felt so good, and I tried my best to fight of the feelings it send through my whole body.
I laughed, "Not quite..." I said, "but Daimeon thinks he's everyone's prince charming." I looked at him smiling. The music had changed to something even slower and we kept dancing. My duties had completely faded from my mind.

Her laugh, the sound of it was just so pleasant, so nice to hear. I liked how the tone of her voice was slightly husky. How often she laughed, though, I didn't know. My heart nearly melted when I saw her pink lips curve upward in a soft smile; she was beautiful.
I was . . . falling for her. Falling- in love with her. And I wasn't very accustomed to the feeling, but I knew at that moment that I couldn't deny the fact that it was really happening.
As the music changed, we continued to dance. Our movements became slower, our gazes on each other seemingly more intense. Her pretty eyes looked like jewels, and the light in them was genuine. Was she thinking about her responsibilities toward my sister and duties to her planet as she danced with me? What was she thinking about? And after this dance, would she go back to being her hard, distant self? Would this - all of this - mean absolutely nothing to her? Would she shut me out once this was over and things went back to normal?
Then again, things weren't going back to normal. Scratch that.
"What's on your mind?" I whispered into her ear. My cheek accidentally grazed against hers, and it felt . . . nice. Her skin was soft and she even smelled good. "What are you thinking about, right now?"

"What are you thinking about, right now?" Xan leans in close and whispers in my ear. The slight feel of his breath lingering there on my ear sent chills through me. As he pulls away his cheek barely rubs against my own. My nose was suddenly filled with the smell of him, it was nothing like what I had ever smelled before, it was a differents smell.... it was nice. I breifly became intoxicated by his smell and touch. I had to close my eyes in order to remain in complete control.
"I'm..." I pause as I take a deep breath and I blush as I think about telling him what I was really thinking about...him. "I was thinking about absolutely nothing and it's nice" I lied as I looked deep in to those blue eyes that I kept getting lost in. I quickly jerked my head so my vision is taken away from his eyes. Damn it, quit it Kyria...that's it, no more looking at those eyes...

That was a good thing, right? That she wasn't worrying about anything, that she was just enjoying herself without a care in the world.
What would she think if I told her what was going on in my head? Hey Kyria, you look really pretty and I think I like you . . . Yeah, right, that would've gone really well, Xan.
She looked away a little, and I wondered if she was going to go back to being tough, unbreakable self again. I hoped not- I wished she could stay this way forever, with a contented heart.
Generally, Sarah was the one who played the field and I- well, girls had never really been the most important thing in my life. But now . . . now things were different. It felt as if my whole world had just turned upside-down and inside-out in just a day. Today, I had a twin sister, was the son of a king and a mother I had never known . . . and I had a crush on Kyria.
Ouch, Xan, ouch ouch ouch.
"Do you think we should stop dancing?" I asked, unsure of what to say. Actually, I didn't want to stop. It felt good holding her, and once I let go, I may never get to reach her again.

"Do you think we should stop dancing?" he asks. Hell no, not ever...but then again.... I stopped moving on the dance floor. I looked around, making sure all of the security staff was where they were suppose to be and were alert. All seemed well.
I leaned in and whispered in his ear, "How about some fresh air?" As I spoke I wondered if the feel of my breath on his body effected him the same way it had me earlier. "C'mon." I said as I grabbed his hand and began to lead us through the crowd off the dance floor, "I know a balcony that will be empty..."
I held tightly to his hand, so not to lose him... and also because my hand felt good in his... too good, Kyria, your suppose to be protecting the queen not making googly eyes at her brother.
There was a curtain that started at the ceiling and made it's way down the long wall to the floor that was behind those providing the music entertainment. We went behind the curtains where a set of french door were. I opened them and we went out on the balcony.

"I know a balcony that will be empty..."
Balcony was good. Empty was better. I liked the thought of being alone with her . . .
She held my hand with a firm grip, as if she couldn't let go. But I wouldn't have minded if our hands were glued together for all eternity.
We came to a curtain, and behind them were big doors which Kyria pushed open, leading me onto the balcony. There was a slight breeze and the air was fresh, unlike the polluted atmosphere on earth.
"It's a beautiful night," I said, looking out at the stars. Was it possible to see earth from Antar? I could definitely spot the three moons and make out a bright star which was probably a nearby planet.

"It's a beautiful night," he said. I made my way to the edge and leaned over, enjoying the veiw myself. The nights here were always goregous. The night time had always been my favorite part of a day.
"It is always beautiful here at night. But, I have to admit it does get tiring seeing the same scenes over and over again. Earth was filled with many interesting things to view itself...." I said.

Skyler-
I turn when I see Xada exiting the room. She looks to be heading towards the gardens. I follow behind her and stop when I notice she is standing in the middle of the garden looking up at the sky and to the full moon we had. She looked so beautiful and mature standing there with the light reflecting off of her hair and skin. I tell the guards to take a break as I walk down the steps that lead to the garden. The wind is blowing so I take my jacket off placing it gently around her shoulders, "So too much excitement for you?" I say jokingly to her.

"Earth isn't out of bounds for you." I hear him say.
"No. Your right, Earth isn't out of bounds for me... just so long as Xada was there." I turned to him and smiled, "A vacation doesn't exactly come with the job."
We stood out there in silence for a while, enjoying every minute of it. I kept trying to nonchantly take a glance at him. Why had it taken this boy from Earth to awaken all these things inside of me that I never even knew exsisted? For now I would enjoy it, and these moments here with him. But, tomorrow I must go back to my duties and forget all these thoughts. Too much was expected of me, not just by Xada but by all of Antar. These emotions would get in the way of all that. Emotions lead to mistakes, and mistakes could not be afforded. I kept thinking about what I had said, ".... just as long as Xada was there."
My time on Earth was to short. The planet interested me highly. There would be less threats on Xadalyn on Earth... it would give me more time to explore things for myself. Could I truly have a vacation? Again I glanced at Xan, could I really have a vacation with him? I pushed my own wants to the side, Xada needed a vacation. She desperately needed a short break from this planet and the stress it brought her.
"Maybe going to Earth is a really good idea afterall. But not for me, for Xadalyn. I will discuss it first thing in the morning with your father and Xadalyn. It will be good for her." ... and maybe even myself.
I looked a Xan with a big smile, "The clock is ticking." I said and he looked at me oddly. "Have you never heard of Cinderella? How she turns back at midnight? Well, when this night is over I must turn back too." I kept a smile as I moved close to him until I was standing right next to him.
