Summary: When a young princess meets a young villager everything changes
Author's Note:In the same series as Royals and destiny, but it isn’t really a sequel!! hopefully you’ll see what I mean! It’s probably better if you read the first installment. This was written again for a![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
gleeverse challenge, challenge 28 Story time.
Run
‘But why can’t I go and play father?’ I asked
‘Because she’s a filthy villager, I won’t have you mixing with children like that’ Father said pulling on my arm.
I was so annoyed that I angrily pulled my arm free and ran into the castle pushing guards out of the way.
He never let me do anything I wanted to do. I’d just spent most of the day sitting in the village’s large church while some man in strange clothes talked and talked and talked.
I ran up the stone staircase until I got to the floor my rooms were on and I ran as fast as I could down the corridor. I slammed the large wooden door behind me and leant against it trying to catch my breath. I then ran to one of my windows to look out onto the village to see if I could still see the girl who wanted to play with me. To my surprise I could, she had just crossed the castles bridge back into the village. I watched her as she walked along the row of shops that faced the castle. She looked fed up and was kicking stones along the road, but as I watched her a group of kids approached her and they all ran off together.
That day changed my life. It changed how I saw the people in the surrounding village. There were children out there like me, who just wanted to play and there was a girl out there, who I didn’t even know, who wanted to play with me. I decided that day that I would find that girl and be her friend.
Red
My father was so angry with me that he left the room so red I thought he might start a fire. My mother paced in front of my bed where my father had placed me.
‘What were you thinking? Running out of the castle like that, so late at night. Do you have any idea how dangerous that was?’
I didn’t answer I just watched her, I could tell she was angry too but she wasn’t as scary as the King when she was angry. She looked at me waiting for me to say something, I still didn’t. She sighed, put her hand on her tummy and rubbed it (it was so big the baby would probably come soon) and she sat down next to me and pulled me into a hug.
‘I’m not angry little one, I’m just glad you are safe. But why did you dress in boys clothes, get all dirty and leave the castle?’
‘I wanted to find her’
As I said that my nurse rushed into my room
‘Find who?’ my mother asked
‘Oh, you aren’t still thinking about that girl are you? Is that what this is all about’ my nurse said
‘What girl is this?’ my mother asked looking at her
‘Last week a child from the village asked the Princess if she wanted to play and she has been talking about her ever since, I’m sorry your majesty, if I’d thought for one second she would do something like this…’
My mother raised her hand to stop her
‘That’s alright Miss Pillsbury, I don’t think any of us would have thought this would happen’ she turned to me, but I spoke before she could
‘All I wanted to do was find the only person who has actually WANTED to play with me, without being told to or made to because I’m a Princess’ I had started shouting and crying through frustration. ‘Why can’t I just play like a normal girl? Why can’t I go and run in the fields like the other children do?’ I rolled onto my bed and cried into my sheets, I felt my mother rubbing her hand on my back.
Watch
She would never say she was a sneaking kind of person, but her heart was pounding as she effectively snuck into the training ground and sat on one of the stone benches around the outside. She had a book with her just in case she was asked why she was there, she could hardly say she was there because she was drawn to one of the recruits like a moth to a flame.
She watched as all the new recruits sat in front of Sergeant Beiste as she explained something about an axe she was holding and swinging around. Brittany wasn’t paying any attention to what was being said, she was far too busy trying to find Santana in the crowd. All thoughts of where she was disappeared when she saw her, she was sitting near the front next to the Blonde she was with last time Brittany saw her. He was whispering something to her and she had turned her head towards him but did not take her eyes off of Bieste, She smiled widely and laughed a little. Brittany took in how beautiful this stranger was, she had never felt this way about anyone before, the thought that she was a villager and would be part of the royal guard hadn’t crossed her mind, many would look down on her. But as Brittany watched all she could think about was speaking to her again.
The second day she watched them, she stayed on after nearly all the other recruits had left. She stayed to watch Santana and Samuel practice together for the Tournament that was only a week or so away. Half way through their session Beiste noticed the Princess and bowed, this got the attention of Santana and Samuel. They both stopped and also bowed, Brittany had a sudden rush of nerves as the fighters returned to their positions and she noticed Santana looking at her, she quickly looked at her book but then straight back to Santana as she heard the sound of their staffs hitting each other.
Santana got more and more annoyed with herself as she fought her friend, she found herself too distracted by the Princess to concentrate fully and Sam was taking full advantage of it. As he swept her legs out from under her and she fell to the ground he lent over her.
‘I hope this isn’t you trying to impress her’ He said with a small laugh
Santana’s eyes narrowed in annoyance ‘shut up’ she snapped and jumped to her feet, quickly glancing towards the Princess who had a worried expression on her face.
As they started to spar again she was determined she would impress the Princess. They started circling each other, staffs held out in front of them. Santana feigned a strike to Sam’s shoulder and as he moved to defend, she struck at his ribs causing him to double over. As he straightened up she raised her eyebrows at him and he knew he was in trouble.
Santana gave him no time to prepare himself as she came at him with a volley of strikes, he managed to defend all of them but in doing so lost his balance and fell backwards into the sand. Santana smiled down at him then turned and walked away, once again she looked at the Princess, this time she had a small smile on her face.
Walk
‘It is late again my Lady’ Santana said as she leant down to pick up her equipment
‘It is’ Brittany paused this is it she thought ‘Perhaps you would escort me back to my rooms?’
Santana physically paused stuck in place ‘Of course, my Lady’ she said then gestured to Sam to take her equipment with him.
Although the barracks and the training areas were all in the walls of the castle, they were a fair distance from the living quarters and where the Royal family lived and there were many guarded doorways between the two that not everyone was allowed to go through.
There was a moment of silence as they both walked from the training ground trying to think of what to say. They knew what they wanted to say, but hundreds of years of protocol meant that no matter how much they wanted to say it they didn’t. Although they could not speak of it, they both kept thinking of the touch that was shared between them.
‘Is your training going well for the tournament, Lopez?’ Brittany asked to break the silence, but not liking having to call her Lopez due to that old protocol
‘It is going very well, my lady’
Silence again as neither of them knew what to say
Brittany had been wondering something all week and decided she should try to find out for sure
‘So, you and Samuel…… do you always spar together?’ Okay so she couldn’t just come out and ask if they were together, she was the heir to the throne after all, she couldn’t broadcast her feelings to everyone.
‘Yes, majesty, since we were children’
‘Oh, you have known each other for some time then?’ this might not be good Brittany thought, what would she do if they were together? ‘Was he one of the children you were playing with that day?’
Santana knew instantly what ‘that day’ meant and she was still shocked and thrilled, the Princess remembered her from all those years ago and must have thought about her since then, as Santana had thought about the Princess.
‘Yes Majesty, we had been playing in the fields before I saw you’
Brittany tried to hide her smile at the answer, she was pleased that Santana had remembered that day and what she had been doing before they met. But it still wasn’t clear what their relationship was.
‘Oh’ she said
‘We have been like brother and sister since we were very young’ Santana continued
Brittany smiled to herself as they walked side by side down one of the many long corridors in the castle.
On the third night of walking the Princess back to the castle, Santana had mustered the courage to be less formal.
‘How was your day, My Lady?’ she asked. Brittany seemed surprised by the question and had to think of how to answer, not many people asked her things like that.
‘It was the same as many days are, this morning I had a lesson in politics and strategy, that lasted until lunch, although it felt a lot longer’ Santana laughed at this, which also surprised Brittany, she smiled and continued ‘After lunch I had to sit through my father and his aides discussing the neighbouring kingdoms and the tribes on our borders’
‘Sounds….’ Santana tried to think of the appropriate word to use that wouldn’t offend the Princess
‘Boring’ Brittany finished. Santana wasn’t sure if she should laugh at the Princess saying what she was thinking. But as Brittany started to laugh Santana joined in. Neither of them noticed the strange looks they were getting from some servants and guards.
When they had stopped laughing Santana asked ‘What would you rather have done?’ again this surprised Brittany, Santana actually sounded interested in what she had to say, and again Brittany had to think of an answer.
‘If I could do anything I would like to go into the village and look around and go to the fields’ It’s something she had wanted to do for many years.
They had begun to slow their pace, as they had started doing, as they got closer to the Princesses rooms.
‘If you would ever like an escort to the village or fields I would be more than happy to show you around, my Lady’ Santana said
Brittany smiled widely ‘Thank you, I may just keep you to that’
‘I hope you do’ Santana said as they reached their destination
‘Good night My Lady, sleep well’ Santana bowed
‘Thank you Santana, good night’ Brittany said and entered her rooms
It was the first the Princess had said her name and Santana had never heard it sound sweeter.
White
Brittany felt herself blush a little as she walked across the Grand Hall towards where Santana and Sam were standing and watched as Santana took in what she was wearing. Her eyes slowly moved up from her feet all the way up her white dress, slowing slightly at the tight corseted bodice.
When she reached them they both bowed
‘I thought I should come over and congratulate you both on winning you contests’ Brittany said looking at them both.
‘Thank you, My Lady’ they both replied
‘Yours was very close Samuel’ she said feeling Santana’s eyes on her
‘Yes, I had a very good opponent, She must train as much as me’ He said subconsciously looking around the banquet for his blonde opponent.
Everyone who participated in the tournament was at the banquet. People travelled from around the kingdom and some came from surrounding Kingdoms to show off their skills at the annual tournament. Everyone was in their finest clothes, Santana and Sam were both wearing brown trousers, with a loose white shirt and a tight dark brown leather waist coat and boot, all of the other off duty guards and trainees were wearing the same.
‘All of that training paid off for you both though’ Brittany said turning to Santana, taking in what she was wearing. ‘You are well, after your match? You aren’t hurt at all?’
‘Nothing that won’t heal, My Lady’ She smiled
‘Good’ Brittany was a little worried after the intensity of her sword fight with the tribal man.
Throughout the evening Brittany had to mingle amongst the other participants, trading pleasantries with representatives from surrounding Kingdoms, but found she would keep searching out Santana in the crowd. They occasionally make eye contact and smiled at each other.
Later Santana handed the Princess a glass of wine, Brittany looked down at the glass and noticed Santana had taken the favour she had given her earlier in the day and wrapped it around her wrist. Before she took the glass, Brittany brushed the favour with her fingers and smiled.
‘I think it gave me the edge’ Santana lent forward and whispered slightly, Brittany blushed again and sipped her drink.
Santana took a step even closer ‘I don’t know if anyone has told you, My Lady, but you look beautiful this evening’ Brittany’s smile nearly blinded Santana and she giggled with a little embarrassment.
‘You look very smart yourself’ Brittany said reaching out and lightly trailing her hand down the shoulder of Santana’s waist coat. They both smiled at each other shyly.
They were quickly brought back to reality though when they heard someone scream and a commotion coming from the left of them. Santana turned to see a man charging through the crowd towards them, as he got closer his hand reached for a sword, before they knew it the sword was drawn and held above the man’s head ready to come down on the Princess. Santana moved quickly pushing Brittany back behind her as she stood between the Princess and her attacker. Before anything else could be done the sword was forcefully brought down.
For both Santana and Brittany time slowed, Brittany stumbled backwards and watched as Santana stood before the attacker as the sword came down, she heard a scream not realising that it was her own. As she saw Santana fall, a large blur blocked her view and she felt herself lifted off the ground, looking over the shoulder, of who she would later realise was Beiste’s, she saw Santana laying on the floor not moving. She fought against the person under her but was just held tighter and was quickly bundled out of the Grand Hall and into another room surrounded by guards.
Santana stood unarmed between the woman she knew she loved and the man trying to hurt her, she didn’t have time to do anything but try to twist out of the way as the man lowered the sword. She strangely didn’t feel anything as she fell to the ground, but as she lay there wondering what had happened the pain kicked in. she clutched at her body and looked down to see her hands and arms covered in her own blood. She could hear lots of noise around her and saw Sam wrestling the man to the ground, then the tribal man, Puckerman, took over holding him down and placed his hand around the man’s neck pinning him. The last thing she remembered was Sam’s worried face.
Away
‘I don’t want you to go’
‘And I don’t want to go, but as the Captain of your guard I have to. If someone attacks your Kingdom, they attack you and you know I won’t stand for that’ Santana smiled sadly and gripped Brittany’s hands tighter as they stood on the steps in the court yard.
Brittany’s eyes started to fill with tears.
Santana let go of her hands ‘My Queen’ she bowed formally then reached out and lightly cupped Brittany’s cheek ‘My love’ she said leaning forward and kissing her softly. As they parted she locked eyes with Brittany and whispered ‘Everything will be fine’
Brittany took her hand again gripping it as Santana turned and walked down the steps to her waiting horse.
As Santana and Sam rode out of the castle Santana turned to see Brittany wiping away tears.
