    "About me..hmmm" It was nice to know she wanted to know about him which meant at least she was at least not thinking to negatively about the marriage. A small smiled, or rather smirk curled up against his lip. Perhaps it was the fact he felt not the need to put up his princely armor on around her. He walked over to her, stopping when he was so close that the smallest movement would have them touching. He then leaned down to get eye level with her. "I could tell you my past, likes, dislikes...but if you want to truly get to know me. Woud you be able to handle the truth?"

    Victoria smiled lightly in response, being genuinely curious about him as a person. She moved her long brown hair out of her face, as it was completely obscuring her view. Though as he suddenly approached her, her attention had faltered, as she couldn't help a light blush brushing her cheeks. "I genuinely want to know more about you, no matter what the truth is." Victoria responded shyly, her voice wavering somewhat as she didn't want to overstep her bounds. If she was to marry, she wanted to try to get to know him, and her in turn if he so desired. She wasn't blinded to the fact that they were strangers, but it was still an endeavor to be pursued, to at least be something other than strangers.

    He gave a charming smile then took a few steps back before straightening his back. "I am glad to hear that! I'll pick you up after school and we can start getting to know each other" he held onto the charming smile before glancing to the clock. "I am going to head to my next class, you should as well" it was if his previous, dark prince like, feeling of before never happened as he reached for her hand and kissed the back of it while his other was behind his back. He then left the room, lightly ruffling her hair before exiting through the door.

    She blinked in surprise as his personality apparently did a complete 180 at the moment. The girl was used to his gesture of kissing her hand, but she didn't expect him ruffling her hair. She gave a miffed look as he did it, but she was mostly findingredients humor in it. After that display she had started to wonder if he put up a front towards her or other people. She exited the classroom, heading to music class. The day passed by in a blur, the final bell dismissing everyone to her surprise. Victoria started to make her way towards the exit, one of her friends walking with her.

    (Hope a time skip was okay.)

    At the front of the school exited sat a dark tinted car and a man in a suit waiting beside it. When he saw her and her friend exit he walked over and asked for their names. Once he heard Victoria's he placed a hand across his chest and bowed his head and back slightly. "Lady Victoria, I am Leon. I am here to escort you to the palace." He told her in a respective tone. Multiple stares went over, most in wonder and others in envy and hate. The man named Leon cast each of them a cold stare causing them to quickly look away feeling a bit embarrassed. He made sure his stare was unnoticed by her and offered to take her bag.

    Victoria was shocked that Alistair had truly followed up on his offer, but her attention was focused on the man outside of the car. Her friend cast her a slight smile, before she glared at some of the people glaring at Victoria. She bid her friend farewell rather quickly, as she had a job to get to. Victoria stiffened slightly at the people staring at her, but she decided to direct her attention back to the man named Leon. "It's nice too meet you, and yes thank you."She said stuttering lightly as she wasn't used to anyone doing anything for her. She slowly waited too see if it was alright if she got into the car, if she was permitted she would already get in, otherwise she could wait.

    Leon lead her to the car before opening the door then offered a hand to help her in. He made sure she was comfortable before shutting the door and getting into the front. The car then took off down the road. Where she sat in front of her was a thing full of water and expensive snacks. It was allowed to be eaten or drankan by the rider. Once they pulled up to the castle the one to open her door was Leon who then offered her a hand to take as she got out.

    Victoria appreciated his offer, she took his hand and got in the car. As soon as she had entered she couldn't help looking around in wonder for a moment, before snapping out of it. She only grabbed a water, although she hadn't eaten all day, she didn't want to mooch from the royal family. Victoria gratefully accepted Leon's hand, she looked around at the palace, secretly she was amazed but was trying not to seem like a complete buffoon. She thanked Leon again, before shutting up as she knew he was just doing her job. Despite this her green eyes betrayed her amazement.

    Leon could not help his own amusement at the amazement in her eyes. He quietly lead the way through the halls then stopped at a door. He gave a small bow of his head. "If you need anything just call" it seemed he would not be entering the room with her.

    She nodded towards him not sure what to do at the moment. Victoria looked around the area before pushing the door open, assuming that no one was currently there. She thought back to school, the stares she received from everyone else. She politely waved goodbye, before realizing how idiotic that was. She supposed that being in the royal castle screwed up her train of thought.

    He was already in there sipping a bit of tea in front of a fire place.Though it was in the far corner so it was hard to tell at first. "Ah...you arrived" He stood and walked over to her. He gave a glance to the now closed door before giving her a proper greeting. "Was your ride here alright?"

    Victoria nodded at his question, before responding. "It was perfectly fine, this place is beautiful. Thank you for letting me come here," She said before realizing that she was rambling far too much. She decided not to mention Leon at the moment, as Alistair had invited her to a place she hadn't expected. Victoria shifted in place, her brown hair obscuring part of her face again. She didn't want to intrude on anything he might have to say,

    He smiled at that, glad it was alright. He then guided her towards a seat and pulled out a seat for her before tucking it in. He then walked to the other side and sat down. "Tea?" he offered her some as he poured himself more. After a moment he began talking. "So, let us begin getting to know each other. But lets do it in a more.....entertaining way. 21 questions, and a game of truth or dare. " he told her as he sipped his tea.

    She accepted the tea, as when she was younger that was simply all she drank. Her parents eventually revoked that little privilege. She coughed a bit as she heard the prince mention truth or date of all things, as she couldn't imagine what could happen there. Victoria drank the tea, before putting the cup back to its original position. "If that's the way you want to do it, then I'm fine with it." Victoria said lightly, still being slightly amused by the game of truth or dare.

    "Alright" He had found her earlier cough over after hearing truth or dare rather amusing. "Lets start with some questions" The game then went on. On his side basically asking about her dislikes, likes, past, plans for the future,goals and fears.

    Victoria eventually finished with her side of questions, rather surprised by some of his answes. She still wondered if he was truly going to follow through with the game of truth or dare. When she had met the prince in the first place this was honestly the last thing that she could have predicted. She had told him basically all thar she could, and was vaguely curious what he would do during the game.

    What he had learned of her was rather interesting and he was sure to keep it all in mind. "Ah. Seems it is time for the next game. " He placed down his tea cup before resting his elbows on the table and chin in his hands. " Truth, or dare?" His eyes locked with her. He was curious with what she would go with.

    Victoria smiled brightly, perhaps enjoying herself a bit more than she should. She reminded herself to remember what he told her about his self. She felt a bit childish as she was tempted to perform a dare, as she was never a fan of the truth part, as it could lead to fairly awkward situations. She shivered, feeling oddly cold in the room. "I choose to do a dare." She said clearly, before feeling a bit embarrassed by her choice. Alistair must be annoyed with who he was stuck with.

    “Dare?” It was interesting her choice. He took a moment of silence to think about it. “Alright then” he smiled at her and leaned back in his seat. Eyes staring humor filled at her. “ I dare you to....go out with me on a date”

    (Sorry if I'm dragging the plot.)


    Victoria's green eyes grew startled at his request, especially seeing all the hate she received from simply being around him. Though she decided to go with it as she wasn't one you back away from a dare. She masked a confident expression on herr face and accepted his dare.
