Hey, I hope you guys like this story. The idea just popped up in my head one night, before I went to bed. I tried to make it really cute and a bit fluffy. The two main characters are my favourite in KHR. They are so adorable!

Prince Belphegor came back from a trip overseas. He had been summoned by the king, his father. He had received a royal later from a personal messenger from the palace. When he had arrived he was greeted by some of the ministers and his older twin brother, Rasiel.
"Hey, how was the trip?" Siel asked.
"Not so bad, it was as boring as like the other trips I have been on." Bel sighed.
Siel smirked "I knew you were going to say that. Well, it's time to go see father." They walked through the huge halls of the palace, walking to their father's meeting place. They walked in silence for a few minutes.
"Hey, do you know why father asked for this meeting all of a sudden?" Bel asked, getting annoyed by the awkward silence between him and his brother.
"Nope, no idea. We'll find out soon enough though, since we're here." They stood in front of a huge wooden door that led them to the great hall, the place of the meeting. Bel was getting a bit anxious. His father was on the other side of this huge wooden door they we're gazing at, it was not like father to suddenly call you out from a business trip, Bel thought to himself.
Suddenly the doors opened. Siel realised Bel was a bit tense "Relax. Besides, it's not like you did something that angered him!" After hearing this, he tried his hardest to relax. They stepped inside and the doors closed behind them.
"Welcome back, my son" A deep voice yelled out. It was his father. Bel bowed his head and stood in front of the throne. Bel looked around and strangely enough, all the ministers were seated around his father. What the hell was going on here?
"Chill." His brother whispered so only he could hear. They stood there, waiting for the king to speak. Some of the ministers were whispering things to each other, which made Bel feel uncomfortable. At last, the king cleared his throat and spoke.
"Quiet! We are all here today to discuss on an important matter." The king said. At once the noise in the room vanished. The atmosphere was a bit too tense, it seemed that Bel and Siel weren't the only ones who did not know why the king summoned them.
"We have gathered here to discuss on the future of the youngest prince, his highness Belphegor." A minister shouted out. He was the minister that the king trusted most, so off course he'd know why this meeting has been held, Bel thought to himself.
"Excuse me father, but what does he mean by my future?" Bel asked, trying not to sound rude.
"We are going to discuss about your marriage with a young princess, that's what he means, off course." His father said proudly. By hearing this everyone gasped. Then it was followed by the loud whisperings.
Bel looked at Siel, Siel understood what Bel wanted him to say. He nodded his head and turned to look at his father.
"Father, you can't possibly be serious!?" Siel spoke.
"Obviously I am, why won't I be serious!?"
"I mean, its brother Bel we're talking about, you know he won't agree to this. He isn't even the heir to the throne." Siel suggested.
"I know he isn't the heir to the throne, but he still must get married. He is at a suitable age."
"What I'm trying to say is, he doesn't have to get married if he doesn't want to. I agreed on marrying lady Mammon, just so he doesn't have to marry someone as well!" Siel protested.
"Lady Mammon? Who's she?" Bel asked, it was indeed the first time he had heard of this name.
"Your sister-in-law to be" the king answered
"What? Brother, you're finally getting married?"
"Yes, I am Bel. But that is not something we should discuss about now, we should be discussing about how to cancel-"
"That's enough" The king had gotten inpatient with the stupid argument.
"Belphegor is getting married and that's that!" All the ministers and also Siel could not protest, it was an actual order from the king himself and no one could disobey. Suddenly the ministers started to applause, showing they agreed to the idea of Bel's marriage. This made Siel really angry, he clenched his fists.
"If you would excuse me, father, ministers…brother" and with that, Siel left the room.
"Now that has been decided, the only thing left is to find a suitable wife for you, my son."
Bel could not simply refuse his father, the king. "Yes, off course father." He did not want to but he had to. He asked his father to let him leave, and when permission was granted, he left.
He decided to go into town.
Bel was currently in town, walking around. After he left the great hall he went to look for Siel but could not find him. He must have been releasing his anger on a bird or something. Bel did not understand what Siel's intention was. He didn't know how to react when Siel announced his marriage to this lady mammon girl. What irritated him most, was when Siel said he decided to get married so Bel could not get married as well. He never asked him to do that!
He also hated the ministers, especially Mr Cooper, he seemed a bit attached to father, too attached. When he was in the ministers and also father's presence, he had to 'behave' and treat them with respect. He hated that. He is not at all happy at the idea of being a good prince, he also hated the idea of marrying some stupid princess. It was him who was supposed to be raging but instead it was Siel who was raging instead. He wondered why.
Bel was walking around town, thinking about the meeting that was held and probably is still being held. He ignored all the people who greeted him because he found them annoying. He was sure as hell not ready to get stuck up with an annoying wife like the towns people were. He didn't even believe in love! Suddenly, BUMP… Bel had bumped into something or someone.
"Hey-"
"Hey, look where you're going, you fucking dweeb!" A young boy with teal hair had first bumped into him and then started swearing at him. That was the first time someone was so rude to him, a prince.
"Hey, you. Get back here, I'm going to tear off that pretty face of yours" A butcher, was running their way, waving a butcher knife around, through the air. He looked really mad. "Oh shit." Bel blinked twice, then realized that the butcher was talking about the boy in front of him.
"What did you do?" Bel asked the kid.
"….Nothing…." The kid was pouting. It was clear to Bel that the teal was lying.
"If you don't tell me, I can't help you!" Bel smirked when he saw the butcher getting closer to them.
"I….my friends and I always stole his meat, so today he caught up to us and he nearly got some of us, now let me pass-" The butcher was tugging the kids shirt, the kid looked scared, for some reason he did not like that. He pulled the kid, wrapping his arm around the child's waist.
The butcher realized who was standing before him and he bowed his head "your highness, prince Belphegor, I am very sorry to have disturbed your walk this fine morning, but that boy is mine to punish." He pointed at the kid who was wrapped in Bel's arms. Bel, for some reason was raging, he did not like this man. How dare he say the boy was his!
"I will pay for the thing this child and his friends have taken from your shop. One of the palace guards shall come to your shop, later this evening and deliver the money to you. Now if you would please excuse us." The butcher stared at the kid in Bel's arms and then smiled at Bel. He bowed and left the pair.
Bel, still irritated, grabbed the teal's hand and walked off.
"Hey ̴that hurts. Where are we going!?" Bel realized he was holding the kid's hands too tightly. He took them to an alley, a place where no one would be able to find them.
He let go of his hand "I'm sorry."
"You better be! I never fuc-" Bel had placed his index finger over the kid's mouth.
"Don't swear, you are still a kid!" He removed his finger, to let the kid speak.
"I am not a kid! I'm sixteen!" Bel was shocked because the kid didn't look sixteen.
"Oh….um, I'm 18. I'm Belphegor by the way, you can call me Bel. What's your name?" Bel asked.
"Fran."
"Fran? That name is a bit cute." Bel liked it how Fran blushed when he called his name 'cute'.
"Um, are you really a prince? I mean, that old butcher said you were and you are also dressed up like one too."
"Yes I am. I am the prince of this country! It's not every day where there is a kid who swears at me, shshishi…..you are actually the first person to insult me!" Bel said
"I'm not a kid!" Fran was pouting again, Bel loved it when he did. 'Oh God, I don't even understand myself!' Bel whispered to himself.
"What did you say?" Fran asked. He didn't get why Bel was smiling.
"Nothing." Bel poked out his tongue. "So, I got to go now, I have businesses to attend to" Fran looked a bit sad, so Bel decided to say "see you around!?"
Fran's face lit up when Bel said this to him, they were going to see each other again! "Yeah, off course!"
Bel and Fran waved goodbye and they both went their separate ways. Both, looking forward to the next meeting.
