Missing you like Crazy

Chapter 1

Kiryuu Zero, the only son of Cross Kingdom was gifted with a very rare ability. He is known as a Bearer as he, as a male, is able to conceive. He had silver hair that entices everyone, skin as white as snow and a pair of beautiful amethyst eyes that could take anybody's breath away. With his extremely rare beauty and ability, strong men that could be considered as heroes, and even nobles that were second to the throne in their own kingdoms would ask for Zero's hand in marriage. He was however the only child of Cross Kingdom and his father, the ruler of Cross Kingdom, was determined to ensure that his only son was to have a happy married life with a ruler from another kingdom after his mother had passed away when he was at the age of 12.

He had a kind heart and he treats everyone with respect no matter what their status were. He was loved by everyone, in both good and bad ways. As he was gifted with rare ability and beauty, selfish people would desire him and would do anything to get him. His father was worried for him and was very overprotective towards him. He could understand the overprotectiveness his father had towards him, and he was grateful for that, it was just that... it could be quite troublesome; especially when you had a secret lover.

The full moon lights up the night sky and stars were twinkling brightly. Its shimmering reflection casts a beautiful silvery sparkles on the still water lake. The palace garden was beautiful, even when it was at night. Kiryuu Zero was tip toeing, while looking back and forth, quietly trying to make his way to the horse stables. He had been sneaking out of his chambers around midnight for a couple of months, making his way to their meeting place. This was the only time they got to meet each other in secret. He was trying his hardest not to get caught as rumor would only spread in the palace, and it was against his father's wishes for him to commit something so indecent, especially when the kingdom's prince was romantically involved with his servant. A mere servant, but Zero did not look at it that way.

He was supposed to be in his chambers, sleeping, not to meet up with his secret lover. He shudders when he thinks of his father's reaction. Who knew what his father would do? Not allowing them to meet ever again would be considered lucky. His father's word was law. It would be terrible to get on his father's bad side.

He finally made his way to the stables and placed his palms on the big wooden door. He sighed a breath of relief and slowly pushed the door open. The door squeaked open and he quickly entered through it, closing the door behind him and locking the latch of the door. He then felt strong arms embracing him and he rested his back against a warm chest. "I missed you Zero." A warm breath whispered to his ear. He smiled. Those strong arms loosen and rested on his waist as he turned around. "I missed you too Kaname." Zero said as he rested his head on the warm chest. Kaname chuckled and pulled Zero to the pile of hay and sat on it. Zero followed him with a smile on his face. He went to a white horse and stood in front of it, patting it while it was making cooing sounds. It was obviously happy with the attention Zero gave to it.

This horse was Zero's personal horse. He got it when he was still a young boy from his mother. The horse was female, so he named her Lily as the horse was as white as snow, and he loved white lilies ever since he was a kid as it reminds him of his mother. "Hey there girl, how are you?" He smiled when she huffed and he took it as a positive answer. Lily usually doesn't like people much. She would make a fuss when anyone came at least 4 meters towards her. The only exception to this is Zero, Kaname and his mother. His mother because she use to help Zero take care of her, but when Kaname and Zero just met, he was surprised when Kaname went to her and started patting her.

Lily cooed and lowered her head and nudged his face with her nose and it made both Kaname and Zero laugh. He then turned and walked towards Kaname and sat on the hay next to him. Their hands intertwined and Zero rested his forehead on Kaname's shoulder. They were just enjoying each other's company.

Zero thought back about what his father told him this afternoon and cringed. Kaname realized this and placed his hand on Zero's cheek. Zero stared into those beautiful garnet eyes that were filled with worry. "What's wrong love? Did something bad happen today?" Zero lowered his gazed to avoid looking directly into those beautiful eyes. "Yeah, something bad happened… something, really, really bad." Zero said, he voice trailing off. "It's okay, tell me what happened, I'll be there for you, you know I always am." Kaname said and smiled at him reassuringly.

Zero bit his lip, his voice stuttering. "This afternoon, father talked to me, and he said he wanted me to be happy. S-Since I am at a marriageable age, my father has arranged for me to marry the prince from the Caelum Kingdom." His voice was getting softer and softer, but Kaname could still perfectly hear him. "And since it would be a good opportunity for our kingdom to strengthen our ties with theirs, I would be getting married to Prince Noctis Lucis Caelum in a few months' time. And since I can get pregnant, we could produce an heir." Zero looked away, not daring to see Kaname's expression.

Nothing was said for a few moments, just the sound of each other's breath and a little shifting from white Lily. "When are you meeting this prince?" Kaname said without any emotion in his voice. Not daring to look at Kaname, he just replied playing with his own fingers. But he felt Kaname's hand on his cheek sliding down to his neck, making Zero feel more comfortable. Zero couldn't understand Kaname's reaction, his voice was without emotion, but physically, his hands were contradicting to it. Kaname always did this to Zero when he needed emotional support. Zero could bet Kaname hasn't even realized that small gestures like this made him totally comfortable, and makes him feel as if all worries had flown out of the window.

"I am to see him next week, and we are having lunch. Father said if it goes well, we're to get married next month." Zero whispered, not realizing that tears were trailing down his face. Kaname saw this and immediately pulled Zero into a tight hug.

Zero started sobbing while Kaname was trying to soothe him by rubbing circles on his back. "Shh, shh, it's going to be okay." Kaname said in a comforting voice. "B-But, I don't want, a-any anyone else, but.. but you!" Zero sobbed louder and held on to Kaname's shirt in a tight grip. "Hey, it's going to be okay Zero. I'll always be there by your side, protecting you as your loyal servant, and as your lover. No matter where you're heading to, I'd be right behind you." Zero nodded his head, but his sobs weren't any closer to stopping, in fact, it made Zero cry even more. A few moments later, his crying ceased, but small whimpers were still heard. Kaname continued rubbing circles on his back and whispered comforting words in his ears.

Zero felt drained. He had never cried so much, not since his mother passed away. Zero's whimpering eventually stopped and Kaname felt Zero resting on his chest, breathing with steady breaths. It seems like he fell asleep after crying too much.

"Don't worry Zero; I will always be by your side, protecting you no matter what. Even when you do get married to him, I will still love you no matter what." Kaname whispered to a sleeping Zero. Zero cuddled closer to Kaname and sighed a contented sigh. 'You can believe me on that. But I do hope this Prince Noctis is not an old man lusting for young virgins. I hope he is a respectable man.' Kaname thought to himself with a death aura surrounding him. Until he meets this Noctis, he would always picture him as a fat perverted old man. All the horses at the stable backed away a little bit while Zero remained ignorant of this and cuddled closer to Kaname.


At Caelum Kingdom

A man with spiky black-grey hair and a pair of grey-blue eyes walked confidently towards his parents' room. A few guards and servants bowed at him as he walked by and he nodded at them as an acknowledgement. He pushed the big white doors opened and walked straight ahead in front to his parents. He then placed a hand on his chest and bowed to them. He then stood up and looked at them without much expression. "Good evening father, mother. You called for me?" Noctis said with his low voice.

"Ahh, yes Noctis, you came." His father smiled and both his parents stood up from their throne and walked towards him. He kissed his mother's cheek and nodded at his father. "We wanted to tell you that our friendship with Cross Kingdom is official." His father said proudly. "That's great father." Noctis said. He wasn't really interested in the kingdom's affairs, but kept it to himself. He just did whatever his parents asked of him.

Everyone admired him since he was young and handsome, no one can deny that. Both, guys and girls were crazy for him. He could turn any straight guy crazy for him if he were to pursue that person. Noctis was always dressed in black, with a big sword on its holster tied to his hips. Besides that, he always had that cool personality that comes naturally to him. He wasn't like those guys who tried to act cool in front of people. (A/N: I absolutely hate that type of guys; they're so annoying, acting cool trying to impress people. Makes them look so pathetic.) He was smart, and his swordsmanship was almost considered the best.

"We have arranged for you to get married in one month's time Noctis, I'm sure you'd be delighted when you see him." His mother said in a gentle voice. Noctis was shocked, with wide eyes and mouth left opened slightly. "M-Married? Why so sudden? And with who?" He said after he recovered from his shock.

"You'll be marrying the Prince of Cross Kingdom, Prince Kiryuu Zero." His father said and patted him on the back. "This will help strengthen our ties with Cross Kingdom and Prince Zero is very special. He is able to conceive a child even though he is male." His father said while rubbing his chin wonderingly. "A bearer?" Noctis said with a shocked look on his face. "But, but bearers are extremely rare! What are the chances of him being a bearer?" Noctis didn't believe this. Bearers were extremely rare. Only 1 out of 500 people were bearers. Bearers were desired by almost everyone, and he's getting married to one? It's too good to be true!

"Apparently, the king from Cross Kingdom said he was born with a birth mark of a rose on his wrists, with distinct hair and eye color." His mother said with a gentle voice. A birth mark of a rose on a body part was one of the main characteristics of a bearer. It was a good enough reason for Noctis to meet him.

"Okay father, mother, when will I meet him?" Noctis said trying to suppress his grin. "Oh you agreed! The lunch date would be next week." His father said with an approving tone. Noctis smirked, bow to his parents, turned around, and left the room.

'This is going to be interesting. Kiryuu Zero hmm, I can't wait to meet you.' He thought to himself with a grin on his face.


"Zero! My son! Are you ready for this meeting with Prince Noctis? He'd be here soon with his parents." his father said as he pulled Zero into a hug. Zero masked his emotions and returned the hug to his father. "Yes father." Zero said without any emotion. He always did whatever his father asked of him. Never has he been disobedient, but inside, he was suffering and hoping he'd have the courage to one day voice out his own decisions.

He turned his head and glanced at Kaname, who was next to him, as a servant. Zero could easily tell his shoulders were tensed when Noctis' name was mentioned. "Hmm, good. I expect this date to go smoothly and I'm looking forward to meeting him in person too. It is said that he is a very honorable and respectable man." Kaname was extremely relived when he heard that. 'Well, at least I know now that there is lesser chance of him being perverted, but I can't let my guard down.' Kaname thought to himself.

"But there is something though, after the wedding, he'd be residing in this kingdom. I was so happy when his parents decided for him to stay here, and not for you to travel and live there. I would be missing you terribly if you were to go over there." His father said with a happy tone in his voice.

Zero's shoulders were tensed throughout this whole conversation. "Yes, that is indeed good news father." He said and glanced at Kaname for reassurance. Kaname returned a comforting look to him but they quickly looked away from each other as they were in front of his father. Zero's father saw this small exchange, but paid no mind to it.

A messenger came into the room and announced the arrival of the royal family from Caelum Kingdom. Zero's father nodded and asked the servants to give them a warm welcome, and they will meet them at the dining room in a few minutes. The messenger bowed and ordered servants to welcome them. The messenger then ordered Kaname to the dining room too but Zero stopped him. "No! Erm, Kaname's with me since he's my official servant. I want him here with me." Zero said as his right arm blocked Kaname from the messenger's vision. The messenger bowed and walked out of the room.

"Hmm, you really do like Kaname a lot Zero? Well, it's to be expected since you both met and were friends at a very young age. Kaname, you are to protect Zero okay?" The king asked Kaname while he patted his back. The king did not order Kaname, instead he asked him as Zero's childhood friend. "Yes your highness. I will protect Zero no matter what. I won't let anything happen to him." Kaname said this from his heart. "Good, I have high expectations from you." He smiled at Kaname and turned to Zero. "Well, Zero, it's time. Let's go."

The three of them walked to the dining room, expecting to meet their guests. Kaname was walking behind both Zero and his father as he's only a servant. He is to merely follow their every step. The messenger announced their arrival and the door to the dining room were opened for them.

Noctis was so very excited to meet his new fiancée, but he kept it to himself and masked his expression to a friendly one. When the door opened, his heart was thumping loudly in his chest. He expected to see a beauty, but what he saw took his breath away. He guessed that the young man next to the king was Zero as his dressing was very prince-like. He saw the brunette behind them and approved of his beauty too. He too guessed that it was a servant as he was in a uniform.

'Silver hair, and OMG, is his eyes lilac in color? He sure is beautiful. I've never seen anyone this beautiful before.' He then looked down at both of his hands, looking for a birth mark, but was disappointed as Zero was in long sleeves.

They introduced themselves and Noctis couldn't stop looking at Zero. Kaname saw this and he was, well you could say, downright pissed. Alright, Kaname was glad Noctis wasn't old and fat like how he imagined, in fact he was, young, around his age, and very much good looking. But Kaname couldn't let his guard down yet.

Zero thought Noctis was good looking, with his spiky hair and blue-grey eyes that were staring at him. He was guessing that Noctis was commenting his features in his head. Zero was extremely worried that Noctis was old and fat. Noctis was not even close to fat. With his slim figure, Zero could practically see the way his muscles flexed beneath that black uniform. But no matter what, he always thought Kaname was always better.

At least his handsome face could make up a little for this disaster. Zero then looked down and saw a sword on his hips. When he looked carefully, he could see that the sword was made and craved beautifully. 'I guess he knows swordsmanship. He might be good looking, but I still love Kaname more. Doesn't Kaname know swordsmanship too? We never really talked about that. No matter, I shall reply to him coldly and see how he reacts to it.' Zero thought to himself, his decision was made.

Noctis' parents were impressed by what they saw, and so is Zero's father. Zero's father was expecting to see a fine man as his son's husband, but what he saw was even better than his expectations. Well, he bet that Noctis' parents were thinking the same as him, but with Zero.

"I think we should leave these two love-birds alone. I will personally give you a tour of the palace." Zero's father said and Noctis' parents agreed. They left the room but only a few servants were left in the room, including Kaname.

Noctis smirked when they left the room. He took up a glass of red wine and swirled it with his legs crossed and his other arm resting on the chair. Zero was tense, he didn't like the idea of marrying anyone besides Kaname. Noctis looked up and looked straight into Zero's eyes. "So Prince Zero, what do you think of this marriage?" he asked with his low and naturally seductive voice.

The moment he spoke, the female servant's faces were beat red. Apparently his voice was too wasn't much a disappointment. "I think this marriage is a little rushed and I was not told in advance. I expect the news to be told to me at least a month before, but I was told only last week." Zero said as he cut his steak with a knife with his back straightened with an uninterested voice.

'Oh, he's not like the other fools who try to throw themselves at me even when I spoke that seductive to him, it seems he is the only one who speaks to me in that way. Test number 1 passed, interesting.' Noctis smirked and took a small sip of his wine. He put the glass down and licked his lips while looking straight at Zero with seductive eyes "Delicious." He said in a low husky voice. Zero gave him a straight face and shrugged. This shocked Noctis, maybe he wasn't like those fools who threw themselves at him. Kaname was standing behind Zero the whole time, not missing the licking of his lips and the way he looked at Zero. He growled to himself and gave Noctis a glare.

Noctis noticed this and turned to Kaname. "I see you're Kaname right?" Noctis said as he picked up his knife and started cutting his meat. "Yes Prince Noctis, Kuran Kaname at your service." Kaname said formally and bowed at Noctis with a hand on his chest. "I see, I've heard about you. You are good at swordsmanship, am I correct? Your name is quite well-known around." Kaname looked down and bowed his head a little as a sign of being humble. "Yes my prince, I practice swordsmanship." Maybe Kaname wouldn't hate him so much. "I practice swordsmanship myself; I'm hoping I could spar with you one day?" Noctis asked hopefully. "Yes, my prince, I would be honored to."

'I might just like them.' Noctis thought to himself.

Noctis smiled at Kaname. "No need to be so formal, it's very tiring, I would rather us all being friends first. Are you okay with that Prince Zero? Can I call you that?" Noctis asked as he stopped cutting his meat to look at Zero. Zero was surprised. He thought that Noctis was going to be one of those, suck-up people who wanted him only because he was a bearer.

Zero nodded with a shocked look on his face. "Err, yes you may." Zero said and looked down. "Oh this is wonderful, if you don't mind, please call me Noctis, don't add the prince in front. You too Kaname." Zero smiled while Kaname nodded. "Okay Noctis." Zero said and continued his meal.

Noctis wasn't usually like this with people. He would usually give them a flat answer, and that was it. He didn't think that both Zero and Kaname would be his friends. Noctis thought that he would play around with Zero as he was a bearer, and was confident that he would be like the other fools who would just throw themselves at him. But when Zero, Kaname and his father walked in just now, he saw Zero's nervous expression and quickly changed it to his emotionless one. He thought he looked adorable. He thought of playing around with Zero, but he might just be able to actually fall in love with Zero.


That evening.

"Zero! How was the meeting with Prince Noctis, my son?" His father asked proudly with arm wide open to give his son a hug. Zero smiled and returned the hug. "It was interesting father. Prince Noctis was very friendly. His personality was totally different from what I expected." Zero said to his father politely. "Well of course! I always pick the best for my dear son! I want you to be happy forever and it will be difficult for when I kick the bucket, that's why I want you to find someone to spend the future together with!" His father laughed and patted his back. Zero looked at the ground and smiled sadly. His father didn't see this as he was too happy. "I know father." Zero said sadly.

"Prince Noctis is staying here at this Kingdom from now on since the meeting went well, but his parents are returning to their country tomorrow morning. It's not good to stay away from your Kingdom for a long time when you're queen Zero." (A/N: Yes, Noctis will be King, and Zero will be queen :3)

"Yes father."


2 weeks later

"Kaname! I can't stand it! I really don't want to get married to Noctis! He seems nice, but I can only treat him as a friend! Nothing more! I don't want anyone else but you Kaname!" Zero sobbed in Kaname's chest.

Their engagement was official, and he is to get married to Noctis in 2 weeks' time. It was extremely rushed for Zero; he had no idea why his father wanted him to get married in such a hurry. Everyone was busy with the wedding plans, the royal family was invited, and so were the nobles along with other rich people. The invitation list was so long, Kaname was wondering whether they could fit so many people in the ball room.

"I know Zero, I feel the same. But there's nothing we can do about it." Kaname said to Zero, embracing him tightly, rubbing circles behind his back to comfort him. He's trying his hardest to comfort Zero. He hated seeing Zero this way. "And the worst part is that I would have to conceive his child! I want it to be our child Kaname! I can't handle to thought of having someone else's child in me!" Zero sobbed and hugged Kaname tighter. Kaname was trying hard to soothe him.

"I know! We could run away from this palace, change our names, and leave at the country side!" Zero said excitedly and lifted his head to look up at Kaname. Kaname closed his eyes and shook his head in a calm manner. "No Zero, we can't do that. You do know that your father will have the entire army looking for us right? And when he does find us, we won't be able to see each other anymore." Kaname said as he cupped Zero face, wiping the tears away. White Lily cooed a little, and they turned to face her and they laughed a little.

"See, it seems that even Lily is trying to comfort you Zero. Everything's going to be okay, I will still love you no matter what." Kaname said in a comforting tone. Zero closed his eyes, and tip toed, lips meeting Kaname's. Kaname returned the kiss and the kiss felt passionate. Zero loved times like this. Their tongues battling for dominance. Zero's arms slid around Kaname's neck, while Kaname pulled him closer. They finally broke apart in need of air. Zero smiled and Kaname rested his forehead on Zero's. "I love you." Kaname whispered. "I love you too." Zero held Kaname tightly, refusing to let go.

"Before I forget, I have something for you Zero." Kaname said and led Zero to the hay stack. Zero looked at Kaname wonderingly but followed him anyways. Kaname went to the back of the hay stack and dug out an old book. Zero tilted his head to the side with wondering eyes. Kaname then held the book in front of Zero. "Take it." Kaname smiled at him and Zero accepted it. "What's this? A diary?" Zero said as he turned the book to the back. He looked like a child at the candy store, so excited. "Yes, it's my journal. I write down all my happy events in this book. Take a look." Kaname said as he pointed at the book. Zero excitedly opened the first page and started reading it. He then looked at the first entry.

28 April 1700

Someone gave me this book as a present, and I didn't have anything to write on it, so I've decided that this shall be my journal. I have finally made my choice to confess my love to Zero. We have been friends for so long, I just hope he wouldn't reject me, and even if he does, I would still want to be his friend, a person he can rely on. Good luck to me!

Zero chuckled at this, remembering how Kaname had first confessed to him. He was in love with Kaname too. In fact he loved Kaname for such a long time, he couldn't remember when he started liking him. He was pretty sure he loved Kaname way before Kaname found out he loved him back. He then turned to the next page.

29 April 1700

HE SAID YES! HE SAID HE LOVED ME TOO! Oh god, I was so nervous when I asked him, my hands were all sweaty. My heart was thumping so loud and I could feel heat on my face. I hope he doesn't think I'm uncool. Thank you god for answering my prayers! I love you Zero.

Zero awed at this and lifted his head to see Kaname with a small blush, looking at Lily. He closed it and hugged the book close to his chest. "I love it Kaname, thank you." Zero said and reached behind his neck and undid his necklace. He then walked behind Kaname and attached it for him. He placed his hands on Kaname's shoulder and walked to face him and hugged him.

Kaname held up the necklace, and saw that it was a pendant of a blue rose. Kaname stared at it and looked back at Zero who smiled back at him. "Zero, this..." Kaname trailed off. "Yes, it was from my mother to me, but I want to give it to you now." Zero said as he blushed a deep red. "But Zero! It's a memorial of your mother! You can't just give something so important away to someone like me! I am only a humble servant!" Kaname tried to argue, but Zero placed a finger on his lips.

"No Kaname, it's because it's you that I want to give it to you. You aren't just a mere servant Kaname; you're the love of my life, the only reason for my existence. Without you, I wouldn't want to live this life anymore, I would rather die." Zero said and he hugged Kaname tightly. Kaname smiled sadly and returned the hug. "Me too Zero, without you, my life would be a dull one. Before I met you, I was always alone as I am an orphan. I am grateful to your father when he took me in the palace. I would be a living creature without any emotions if it wasn't for you." Kaname whispered and held him tighter. Zero buried his head on Kaname's shoulder blade and nodded. "Me too Kaname, me too." Zero whispered.

Neither the silverette nor the brunette had noticed a pair of ears listening to their every word. Unfortunately, the door was left ajar, and a pair of blue-grey eyes watched the scene sadly. The owner's face was expressionless, but the sorrow in his eyes conveyed. Noctis then turned and walked back to his chambers quietly with a heavy heart.

Noctis had actually followed Zero here when he saw the silver haired boy sneaking around. He thought he was up to something, but this was a surprise when Kaname hugged him. He witnessed them kissing passionately and his heart dropped. He saw the exchange of the journal and the necklace. He guessed that they were secretly in love. He knew that it would be terrible for the both of them if he were to tell this to someone, so he decided to keep it to himself.

He made his way to his room and dropped himself on the huge king sized bed. 'These past 2 weeks had been the happiest of my life, I was so glad to have made friends with Kaname and Zero. I can't believe I have slowly come to love Zero. I should have expected something like this; it was too good to be true when I was getting married to Zero as a bearer and a beauty. There had to be some catch to it, but… but this is just too cruel.' Noctis didn't notice the tears trailing down his face. He then curled himself into a ball and willed himself to sleep.


1 week later

The week after the exchanged of presents between Kaname and Zero went as normal. Kaname and Noctis were sparring with each other as Zero sat under the sakura tree with a story book in his hand. He always enjoyed watching them spar. The trio had become fast friends and the king was very proud of this. Unfortunately for both Kaname and Zero, the wedding was next week. Time had flown by very fast, so Kaname and Zero had been making full use of that time. Noctis had kept quiet about the incident he saw last week and pretended as if everything was normal. He actually hoped for his friends' happiness, but he couldn't object to the wedding that was planned by their parents.


The night before the wedding.

Zero was quietly making his way out to the garden to meet with Kaname, but abruptly stopped when he heard a voice called out to him. He tensed his shoulders and slowly turned around, only to see Noctis right behind him. He relaxed and smiled at him. "Hi Noctis, what are you doing this late at night? Our wedding is tomorrow, it's better for you to take a good night's rest, since you won't be single anymore." Zero's laugh sounded fake to Noctis. He looked serious and Zero thought it was very weird.

"I have to talk to you, it's very important." "What's there to talk about? It's our wedding tomorrow." Zero said and scratched his forehead nervously. He wanted to meet with Kaname as soon as possible; it might be their last time that they could meet each other at night. "It's because it's our wedding tomorrow that I want to tell you this." Noctis then looked left and right and sighed a breath of relief when he saw no one. Well, it was midnight; everyone would have been asleep already.

Zero nodded. "I know about the two of you." Noctis whispered with his head facing the floor. "What?" Zero thought he heard wrongly, did he just say he know about the two of us? No one knew! And they were extremely careful too! Noctis looked up with confidence in his eyes. "I know about the two of you." He said a little louder. Zero tensed, shocked, his heart was thumping loudly in his chest. "W-what are you t-talking about?" Zero tried to deny, his voice stuttering. "You and Kaname are lovers, I know. I accidentally heard your conversation at the horse stable." Zero froze. He was dead. They were dead, he couldn't meet Kaname anymore. His father will not allow them to meet anymore. His heart dropped, mind thinking of the worst case scenarios.

"I found out 2 weeks ago, but I kept quiet about it. I know the both of you truly love each other Zero, so I never told anyone. You both are my first friends in a long time." Noctis said sadly with a smile. "Friends, for the first time in a long while?" Zero stuttered, he was shocked. He always thought Noctis was confident, but he didn't know this part of him. Noctis nodded and shifted a bit. "I had a friend when I was ten, we were really good friends, he was physically weak, and one day, he just passed away." Noctis said sadly and continued. "Prompto was always by my side, he was the only one who saw me for who I really was. Unlike those fools who would throw themselves at me because of my status and looks, but he was different from all of them. After he died, I vowed myself not to get close to anyone. I wouldn't want to feel that despair again." Noctis then looked at Zero. "You and Kaname saw me for who I really was, like how Prompto had. This is why I never told anyone. I want you both to be happy." Noctis smiled sadly.

Zero stood there, stunned. He was pretty sure Noctis would tell his father about their relationship. He smiled a thankful smile and gave Noctis a hug. "Thank you Noctis, Kaname was my childhood friend, he was my only friend, but I had a liking towards you because you didn't only see me as a bearer, or a person with status and beauty. The three of us spent time together and we enjoyed each other's company."

"Zero, I have something else I want to tell you. At first, I thought I would play around and not get serious, but I love you. I have loved you right after I met you. I love you, but I know you already love Kaname." Noctis said and tighten his embrace to Zero. Zero smiled a sad smile. "I love you too, but only as a good friend. It's unfair that you have to get married to me, since I already love someone else. I know that none of us can object to this wedding, but I want you to know that I will still love Kaname after this." Zero stepped away from the hug and smiled at him.

"I understand Zero. I'll try my hardest to keep your secret and I'll pretend for the both of your sakes." Noctis smiled. "Thank you Noctis. I have to meet Kaname now, goodnight." He then turned and ran to the horse stables.

Kaname was tapping his foot, wondering what took Zero so long, maybe something happened. He was very worried. He turned around when he heard the door creaked opened, and smiled when Zero came in with heavy pants. It seems like he was running to get here.

"I'm so glad you made it Zero." Kaname embraced him. Zero smiled and embraced him back. "Kaname, I have something important to tell you, it was the reason why I was late tonight." Zero looked at Kaname seriously. "Noctis caught me sneaking here just now, and he knows about the two of us Kaname." Zero said with serious eyes and Kaname froze. He paled and stared at Zero, not knowing what to say next. There was dead silence in the stable. It felt too uncomfortable for Zero.

"He said he knew about us since 2 weeks ago Kaname, and he told me he didn't tell anyone because he thought of us as good friends." "A-are you serious?" Kaname stuttered, his arms around Zero loosen. "I'm so- I'm so relieved." Kaname said and smiled at Zero. "Yes, but he also said something else. He told me he loved me ever since the 3 of us first met. But he understands our situation and wished us the best and said he would protect our secret no matter what." Zero hugged Kaname tightly and Kaname returned the embrace.

"I'm so happy Zero. We should both thank him again tomorrow." Kaname smiled at Zero. When Zero thought about tomorrow, he felt dread. He didn't want to get married so soon. Zero tip toed and kissed Kaname passionately. This shocked him as Zero's kisses were normally shy kisses, but it seems Zero can't handle the pressure of the wedding anymore. Kaname returned the kiss and their hands roam around each other.

They broke apart in need of air and Kaname chuckled when he saw Zero's face, beat red. "Please Kaname, make love to me tonight. I know it's going to be our first time, but I want you." Zero whispered and placed his head on his warm chest. "Are you sure Zero?" Kaname said in a whisper, giving him the chance to reject if he had a change of mind. "Yes, I've never been so sure before." Zero whispered and bit Kaname's ear. Kaname shuddered and nodded. "Okay Zero, I'll be gentle, don't worry." Kaname said and their night of pleasure began.
