It was a peaceful Saturday morning, and you found yourself lost in a tune as you diligently scrubbed away at the dirty dishes. A sudden movement caught your attention. You turned your head to see a familiar-looking boy with pink hair entering the room. “Good mor–” Before you had the chance to greet him, he hushed and ran closer to you. “Y/N, have you seen Master Kaim?” Kurt asked, glancing around the room, searching for any sign of Kaim’s presence.
“I haven’t seen him, why?” You asked, cocking your head as you placed the wet dishes on the shelf. Kurt breathed a sigh of relief and let out a mischievous giggle. You giggled and couldn’t help but feel a sense of excitement. You knew Kurt well enough to know that he always had something up his sleeve. “Let’s prank him!” Kurt said, his lips curving into a bright smile. You widened your eyes slightly.
“Prank him? What kind of prank?” The idea of pranking your strict boyfriend may seem like a fun and exciting challenge. Today being the weekend, the majority of people in the estate do not have a significant amount of work to attend to. Perhaps engaging in a bit of mischief with Kurt could be an enjoyable means of passing the time, especially if the target happens to be Kaim.
“Master Kaim gave me a hard time for eating too many sweets. I need to get him back with a prank!” said Kurt as his lips formed a pout, giving him an adorable expression. You scratched your neck and let out a nervous laugh. Kurt took a deep breath and began to explain the prank to you. There was a hint of hesitation on your part, as you were a little worried about Kaim’s reaction “Kurt, I appreciate your enthusiasm, but pretending to be kidnapped by someone is not considered a good prank,”
“What if I faked running away from the estate because Kaim was always yelling at me? Would that be cool, Y/N?” Kurt asked, his innocent gaze fixed on you. He seemed unaware of the fact that his suggestion might be a bit too intense.
Kurt noticed the scepticism in your face and said, “Don’t worry about it, Y/N. Kaim wouldn’t be mad at you. You are his lover, so…” Kurt’s face lit up with a wide grin, like a child who had just received his candy.
“I’m pretty sure you’ve always seen Kaim scold me, but whatever. I’ll join you,” A chuckled escaped your lips as you saw Kurt’s happy expression upon your agreement to participate in his ‘prank’.
An hour later, Kurt decided to hide in the garden while you searching for Kaim. You eventually located him after ten minutes while he looked over his task list in his notepad. When you approached him, you couldn’t help but notice the sour expression on his face. You cursed silently to yourself, already anticipating the unavoidable lecture that was sure to follow.
“Hi, Kaim. Is something wrong?” You tilted your head and locked eyes with Kaim, trying to act as normally as possible. “Where is Kurt? He hasn’t completed a single task for today, and no one has been able to find him,” Kaim massaged his forehead while expressing frustration.
“Well, did you do something to him that made him hiding from everyone else?” You asked, hiding the shakiness of your voice. Kaim’s eyebrows furrowed as he gazed at you. He pondered over what he might have done to Kurt that caused him to ‘vanish’ suddenly. In a sudden moment of realization, his gaze shifted back towards you, but this time, his expression was one of suspicion.
“Hey, are you trying to say something?” As Kaim noticed the worried expression on your face, he proceeded to ask further about Kurt. “Maybe he ran away from the estate because you scold him about snacking on candy,”
“Y/N, whenever Oswald and I went grocery shopping, he always spent a significant amount of money on sweets. We shopped for supplies three times per week,”
“Yeah, but he’s just a kid, Kaim. What if he got snatched up by some random people?” You asked in a worried tone, almost like a mother.
“Hm, I am quite certain that the kidnapper would return him to the estate,” Kaim expressed his disbelief. Suddenly Kaim paused for a moment and said, “Wait, did you know about him running away, yet you didn’t stop him?”
“No,” You replied, attempting to act natural. However, your response only seemed to heighten Kaim’s suspicion towards you.
“You do know if you lied to me, you’ll get in so much trouble, Y/N.” Kaim’s crossed as he spoke with a firm tone. As you met Kaim’s gaze, a shiver ran down your spine. You bit your lip, unsure of what to say next. To be fair, you knew deep down that you were a terrible liar.
“If you are honest with me, I won’t punish you as severely as I give out to Kurt,” He warned in a stern voice. Her eyes widened in surprised. Sometimes, even a small mistake could result in an enormous amount of work as punishment from Kaim. One can only imagine what kind of punishment would be given if he found out that you were involved in the prank.
“Kurt is hiding in the garden!” You blurted out. Kaim let out a deep sigh and closed his eyes in frustration. He rubbed his temples, trying to ease the tension in his head.
“You– urgh. Let’s go to the garden,” Kaim marched away, his legs carrying him towards the garden. You ran behind him, hoping that Kurt wouldn’t receive a harsh scolding.
“It was just a prank,” You muttered slowly. Kaim slowly turned his head to face you, his expression one of utter disbelief. “That’s not a prank. What were you and Kurt thinki– you know what? I’m not that surprised that you would even think this is a prank.” You felt hurt by Kaim’s words. But he was partially correct. You and Kurt did have a tendency to cause confusion amongst the people of the estate.
As you and Kaim made your way into the garden, you scanned the area for any sign of Kurt. But, he was nowhere to be found. You and Kaim searched for him tirelessly, calling out his name in the hopes that he would hear both of you. Despite your efforts, he was never found. When you saw a shoe on the floor, the color left your face and you looked pale as a ghost. The shoe belonged to Kurt. “Kaim, this is Kurt’s shoe, right?”
Kaim ignored your question and said, “Y/N, stop playing. Is this also one of your tricks?” Kaim cast a suspicious glance at you. You shook your head, and said firmly, “No! I swear it’s not!” You repeated, looking directly at Kaim in front of you.
“Then, where is Kurt?” He asked, looking around the garden. “Perhaps, we should ask Oswald,” said Kaim. With a nod, you scanned the area for any sign of Oswald. Once you spotted him, you and Kaim made your way over and asked the question about Kurt. Oswald shook his head in response, indicating that he had not seen Kurt. The two of you were now in a state of panic.
Oswald made his way through the halls of the estate, looking for other servants to help him with searching for the missing Kurt. He knew that he couldn’t do everything on his own. Suddenly, Lucia, with a curious expression on his face, asked about the sudden chaos that had erupted in the estate. “Y/N, what’s wrong?”
“Kurt is missing!” In a panic tone, you replied to Lucia’s question. Lucia tilted his head and turned his room, looking at Kurt giggling to himself while munching on sweets and sipping chocolate milk.
“KURT!” As soon as you laid eyes on Kurt, who was sitting cheerfully in Lucia’s bedroom, you yelled his name. In a fit of anger, you stormed into Lucia’s room and pinched Kurt’s ears. Kaim heard a scream and quickly dashed into Lucia’s room. He let out a sigh upon entering and asked in a concerned voice. “What are you doing, Kurt?”
The pinch on Kurt’s ears intensified, a sharp cry of pain escaped his lips, echoing through the room. As soon as you released his ears, he pouted and his expression turned into a frown. “You took too long, so I went inside Master Lucia’s room and ate candies with him.”
Lucia grinned mischievously as he patted Kurt’s head. “Haha, poor Kaim and Y/N. They are worried about you,”
“Of course Lucia would think this situation is funny,” A heavy sigh escaped your lips as you brought your hand up to your forehead, hitting it in frustration.
Lucia observed the two of you before remarked, “You looked like parents who had their child missing,”
“Our child won’t behave like Kurt!” said Kaim. You felt a sudden rush of emotions that left you flustered. Lucia, having noticed this, began to tease you even more. “In any case, Y/N and Kurt will be punished tomorrow,” Kaim continued in a stern voice. Yours and Kurt’s eyes widened in fear of the coming punishment.
“No excuses,” Kaim said as he exited the room. You shifted your gaze towards Kurt, and a deep sigh escaped your lips, causing a soft giggle from Lucia. As you reflected on the situation, you couldn’t help but think that the outcome was a direct result of your attempt at a playful ‘prank’ on your boyfriend.
