I Take Care Of His Highness's Son

9 [ morning ]

Siah's POV

"Why are you here zach??" i asks while giving him snacks

"Am i not allowed to come here?" he said while eating the cookie leisurely

My eyes widened then i yelped "of course not! You're very welcome here" i  sat in front of him while axle runs towards his friends then they started to play again

"Hmm... i need to check this place and i want to invite you to come with me" he said while still munching on his cookie

I pursed my lips to hide my smile, i see it's really like father like son. They're both cute when eating while talking

I cleared my throat then fixed my posture in a comfortable position "where?" I ask then drunk my tea

"Palace"

"Palace?"

"Palace..." he knitted his brow

I chuckled "i mean why in the palace when we just moved here for like a few months?"

He crossed his legs then placed his hands on his knee while staring at me "it's my birthday"

The room filled with silent until it processed on my head what he just said

Wait zach's birthday? When is it again???

It seems zach saw my weird face as if he's reading my mind so he answered me leisurely

"The day after tomorrow will be my birthday so we'll go back tomorrow to the palace temporarily"

I nodded at him slowly while my mind is still in a daze then i suddenly realized i still doesn't have something to give him as a present

"Zach, what do you want as a present? Since i dont know what do you like"

He didn't responded so i looked at him, he sighed then answered me "anything"

I raised my eyebrow while looking at him in bewilderment, he didn't say anything as he drunk his tea

I heard a click sound coming from the door, i looked behind me and then saw elliana and mariel looking at us while smiling

"It's already evening, it's time to sleep siah and your highness" mariel said while bowing lightly at zach

We nodded and i stood up, i was about to walk out with the two when i felt someone is tugging my clothes

I looked below me and saw axle smiling ear to ear "papa let's sleep together with dad!" my eyes widened and suddenly looks at zach who's looking at us uninterested

I looked behind me where mariel and elliana are then saw them smirking at me, i gave them a hesitant smile

I was about to reject axle since it'll look improper especially mariel and elliana is here they might misunderstood something, when zach suddenly spoke

"It's fine, we already slept together for the nth time" zach said while leaning towards axle to carry him

I facepalmed then looks at the two women staring at us with their weird expressions

Ahh, i think they really misunderstood something....

I shook my head then went straight together with zach and axle to our bedroom

When i closed the door i felt my heartbeat raced for a bit, i got nervous for nothing

I tossed my self on the bed, burying my face on the comforter then i felt axle at my back leaning on me

I chuckled then turned around to tickle axle. As i was tickling him i heard a cough sound then i realized zach is still here, i immediately stop what i am doing then sits up on the bed while zach is still standing

I cleared my throat then asks zach to come to the bed hesitantly, zach only looks at me then sit on the bed to lay down

I didn't realized that i was already staring at him when i felt axle leaned on me, he seems already sleepy

I laid axle between i and zach then i also laid down while patting axle to sleep

Axle closed his eyes as he cuddled his father while zach fixed his position on a comfortable spot

3RD'S POV

Morning came after a comfy night

Zach felt something on top on him, he slowly opened his eyes then waited til the blurriness cleared up

He saw siah's arm placed on his stomach, cuddling him with axle still between them

He stayed still until he heard a soft knocks on the door and it opened leaving mariel on sight

On the other hand, mariel looking at them as if the three is a whole family sleeping together, she cleared her throat then speak lightly so she wont wake the other two

"Your highness, the breakfast is ready. Will you eat here with them or at the dining table??"

Zach stayed still while staring at the two and after a few seconds he responded "we'll eat later at the dining table, let them sleep first"

Tho zach can't see mariel since she's behind him, mariel still nods at zach then excuses herself to leave the room

When the door closed siah suddenly opened his eyes then blinked twice til he can see clearly then he saw zach staring at them softly

"Morning" siah who just woke up greeted zach with his hoarse voice while zach nods at him as a response

They felt axle wriggled between them while groaning so they looked at him, siah ruffled his hair while zach slowly removing his arm on axle's head

Axle opened his eyes slowly then saw siah beside him staring at him, he smiled and greeted siah then looked around to see his father sitting behind him while staring at them

He greeted his father then zach only nods again as a response, they stood up to do their morning routine then went straight towards the dining room

While they were eating they were discussing about zach's birthday gift

"Can we go back to the palace at noon? I want to buy a present for you but i dont know what you like so i want to ask you if you also like to come with me and axle to stroll around the town" siah asks hesitantly but zach nods at him

"Papa i also want a present" axle suddenly exclaimed at siah while looking at him with his sparkly eyes

Siah nods at him while smiling then continued to feed axle "yes but first you should eat your veges" axle looks at the vegetables on his plate with disgusted expression while siah chuckled at him
