I and Lucas sat in our carriage and I couldn't help but sigh happily.
"After all these years... it feels amazing to see that everything has paid off." I said looking at Lucas.
"Today when I saw Athy all dressed up I couldn't help but feel like a proud mother who saw her child all grown up." I said.
"She's still a child though but... there's this feeling that everything will change now." I looked down at my hands.
"Nothing will change between you and your sister." Lucas said and I looked at him.
"Your sister loves you, it might not be as much as you are obsessed with her, but she does." I laughed as he said that.
"One more thing, Lucas."
"What?"
"I really like you," I said making his cheeks go as red as his eyes, "and I don't want to break your legs today, so, let's use magic while dancing."
He flicked my forehead making me hiss.
"I should really tell Dad you hit me like this."
"What about the time when you hit me?"
We almost got into an argument before the carriage stopped and the coachman announced that we'd arrived.
Lucas stepped out and I held the hem of my dress before I stepped out taking Lucas' hand.
"Thank you."
"Heh? You can be polite too." He commented and I gave him an icy smile making him look away.
"I take that back." He said as he looked away.
"Now, where's Dad and Athy?" I wondered as I looked for them and spotted them quickly thanks to my blinding Dad.
"There they are." I said as I pointed at them and took a step ahead but stopped as Lucas didn't move.
"Your father has prepared a gift for you today."
"Eh? Me?"
"Well, it's from both your father and your sister, they asked me to give you a heads-up."
"What is it?" I asked.
"You'll know."
"What's with this suspense?"
But still I shrugged my shoulders before we made our way to my Father and Athy.
We walked up to the entrance of the ballroom and Athy looked at me. I smiled at her encouragingly.
"I and Dad are right beside you, Athy. Nobody will dare say anything. Be happy and enjoy yourself tonight." I said and she smiled back.
"Make way for His Majesty Emperor Claude de Alger Obelia! And Her Highness Princess Athanasia de Alger Obelia!" The announcement was made and my Dad and Athy stepped forth into the light.
I and Lucas waited while I was starting to feel slightly nervous myself, Lucas seemed to have noticed my nervousness as he looked at me.
"Why are you nervous? You just gave your sister encouragement."
"After all these years, I'm going before people, it feels strange." I admitted.
"Silly, Ara. You're called the Emperor's Shadow, act like your father if anyone tries to look down on you. I don't think anyone would dare to even try to do that in the first place though." He said and I chuckled feeling the growing tension dissipate.
"I seriously want to know who goes around giving me these silly nicknames."
"Come on, it's time." He said with a smile and I looked at him.
