Amyntas sighs, looking around.

She looked around them, smelling the flowers. Until she sneezed.

Amyntas chuckles softly. “Allergic?”

"Just regular allergies. Too much pollen." She smiled.

Amyntas smiles and nods.

"We can stay a little longer." She placed her head on his chest.

He stiffens, then nods. “Ok…”

She smiled. She looked back around them.

In the back of the garden, there were tall sunflowers reaching the roof. Amyntas smiles softly.

She looked up at Amyntas, her gaze softening as she looked at him.

Amyntas looks at her, silent.

She tentatively kissed the underside of his jaw in an attempt to reach his cheek. He was a bit too tall for her to reach without straining. "Thank you."

He nods, “y-you’re welcome…”

She smiled at the small stutter. "We should come here more often."

He nods slightly, looking away.

She was still looking up at him even after he looked away.

Amyntas sighs, silent.

"You okay?" She asked him

He nods. “Yeah…”

"Good," she said. "Is there anywhere else you want to show me?"

He pauses, then shakes his head. “Not really…but if you wanna see everything you can…”

"Only if you take me." She wouldn't go with anyone else.

Amyntas sighs, “do you want to…?”

"Yes I do," she smiled at him.

He sighs softly, then nods. “Ok…”

She linked their arms together, looking forward.

Amyntas takes her around the palace, explaining where everything is and what it’s used for. He seemed tense the whole time. He had to stop and fix things constantly and he started slowly panicking as time went on.

Ariella held onto his arm as he took her around. She frowned as she noticed him starting to panick. "Would you like to return to your room?"

He nods, silent.

"Let's go then," she said.
