As DG’s carriage brought her closer to the Central City palace, she gazed up at the vine covered towers fondly. She was very glad to be back from her trip, and even more excited to see those that she missed.
“Are you glad to be back, Your Majesty?” an airy voice, with just this much pompousness in it queried, as if reading her mind. DG glanced at Duke Kensington with a fake smile.
She would not be missing Kensington the way she missed her friends once this trip was over.
“Yes, I am,” she replied quietly.
The carriage came to a stop and Duke Kensington got out and gave her his hand as she climbed down after him. She spotted her greeting party and the person she missed the most, making her heart flutter.
“If I may so bold,” the Duke cut into her thoughts. “Will I be seeing you again, My Lady?”
She liked Kensington. He was nice, likable, charming, straightforward. But she can only handle him in small doses. He clears his throat too much.
He did so now.
“What I mean is - ”
“My dear Duke,” she cut in as she saw her Tin man moving toward her with purpose. She cast a glance back at Kensington. “Only certain people have my permission to call me their Lady…”
He blushed and bowed in apology.
DG dropped her bag with a shrug.
“It’s nothing personal, Edward,” she pulled off her traveling cloak and set it on her bag. “but it’s really my advisors that set up these Suitor-get-aways for me and I really-”
She whooped as Wyatt Cain wrapped his arms around her middle and lifted her feet off the ground.
“Hello, My Lady,” he said with a genuine smile, spinning them in a circle, completely oblivious to her current conversation.
“-don’t need to be set up with anyone. Oh!” Cain set her back down and she turned her attention to him, placing her hands on either side of his face.
“Hello, My Tin Man,” she said breathlessly before kissing him soundly.
After a moment of surprise, and her holding his face in place, he met her kiss willingly.
When they separated, his smile was uncertain.
“You said if you took your cloak off…” he whispered quietly enough for just her to hear. “…I was to hug you to get rid of the suitor, not…” he trailed off as he found himself looking at her lips.
“But that wouldn’t fool anybody,” she whispered back breathlessly. She was glad his arms were still around her because she was feeling decidedly -
He kissed her again and she melted against him. He leaned over her slightly but held their middles together, and she wrapped her arms around his neck. He kissed her deeply and she was about to slip her tongue out to brush across his lips when he pulled back.
They were both suddenly very aware of where they were and just how many people were surrounding them.
…Right…
They weren’t supposed to kiss in public. Nobody knew about them in public.
She looked over her shoulder at the Duke and gave him a guilty smile.
“Well…” she was at a complete loss for words. “Yeah…” She turned back to her family and friends who had gathered around while the two of them were distracted.
Thankfully Cain had left one arm around her waist. She wasn’t sure she could stand.
“It’s good to be back?”
