Young Royals: After season 1

Chapter forty one: Simon

Once again the choir had practice for the yearly Lucia performance. The first years were all involved, like our class had been the year before. I at least had Felice to hang out with at practice now. During the first semester when we transferred I did not talk to too many people, since they saw me as someone who did not fit in. Wille was the first person in my class but Sara to actually talk to me, more than to make fun of me. Felice was not like the other rich people though. When you got to know her she was nice. She had just hidden her insecurities behind a facade that showed the typical mean girl that was common in TV-shows, when in reality she was nothing like that. She had done everything in her power to find out who had leaked the sex tape of me and Wille last year. Not because she wanted revenge on August, but to make sure that Sara would not transfer schools. She maybe did not do what she did to help me per sé, but I rather saw that people were nice to my sister who had never had a real friendship of her own. I at least had Rosh and Ayoub. And Wille. Even though we did not talk for a solid week or two after he said it was not him in the video. God how I had missed him during that time. Now he was sitting outside the music room studying. He was obviously waiting for me to finish up the practice so that I could save him from our project we did in biology. I had caught him looking through the glass on the door to the music room a few times.

"Let's sing Sankta Lucia one more time. Pay attention to the tunes, please," the choir teacher said.

"Look. Wille is looking at you again," Felice said in my ear. I giggled a little and she looked like she was watching some kind of romantic movie where the lead roles was flirting with each other. I watched Wille look back on his computer, as some of the first years had caught him looking in at me. I had already heard them whispering about me and Wille. They were clearly curious. Wille was clearly the most publicly known person here, so I guessed that if they were going to gossip about someone he was a good candidate. And as his boyfriend I became as appealing for gossip, I guessed. We sang Sankta Lucia again and then the teacher finally let us go. It was soon time for dinner for the interns, as it was 6 PM already. I took my folder with sheet music and walked out the room. Felice followed me out. Wille was accompanied by Sara, Stella and Maddie by the table. Felice sat down with them at the last empty chair at the table.

"Come and sit with us darling," Wille said to me.

"Well there are no chairs left so I will have to find one in the classroom then," I replied.

"There is no need to find a chair," Wille said. "Just sit here." Wilhelm gestured towards his own lap. I laughed. Was he really serious?

"Are you crazy baby?" I asked him. He giggled and shook his head. Then he wrapped his arms around my waist and made me sit down when I didn't do it voluntarily myself.

"A little crazy about you maybe," he flirted. I probably smiled like a fool. I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him. Wilhelm leaned in for a kiss, so I met his lips with mine. He tasted sweet. Like candy.

"Well I might be a bit crazy about you too," I replied.

"Look at them. Is it really legal to be as cute as you two?" Stella commented. The other girls laughed.

"Well as far as I know I can't be persecuted as the next monarch of the country," Wille replied. I giggled. "And you better believe I would dig this one out of jail if he ever was." I giggled.

"Well since you two barely can make it without each other when Simon is at choir practice I don't doubt that," Maddie said.

"My brother is pretty well behaved, so we can hope there will be no digging him out of jail," Sara said.

"We can only hope so," Felice laughed.

"Well I am not a criminal, right?" I asked.

"If being handsome was a crime they would have you in jail doing a life sentence, love," Wille flirted. I caressed his cheek with my fingers. Looked deep into his eyes.

"Lucky it is not a crime then," Felice said. "Because Wille would be miserable without his boyfriend, as he can't be persecuted."
