I AM an incurable r o m a n t i c. I believe in hope, dreams and decency; LOVE, tenderness and kindness. I believe in mankind.

She couldn’t help but snort a bit at his reaction, and she pressed her lips together at the questions. “When? It happened… about a month ago. How? We were standing under mistletoe, and we didn’t know if it was bad luck to not kiss under it, so we did. That was when everything started. Why?” She paused at this question. “Because for once, I actually like someone, and he likes me back.”

nathaniel saw no reason to be mad at his sister. she was in love, love makes you do thing you normally wouldn’t do—he would know. who was he to deny his sister of her chance in happiness. he wasn’t about to take that away like their parents had. he let out a deep sigh before replying. ❝ all i ask from you is that you take care, okay? ❞ he reached out to hold charity’s hand lightly. ❝ and who’s the guy we’re talking about again? ❞

castor:

Castor carefully put himself near the shadows. he tried to make it look convincing, being a detective or doing his best to keep his umbrella close to him. “oh, really? what a wonderful explanation.” the boy scratched an area on the back of his neck. “you will? I mean, I don’t know how long you’ll be helping for.” at the information he had heard the boy jumped and clapped his hands in excitement. “yes! that’s what I needed for a while!” 

❝ i have a lot of spare time in my hands. ❞ the prince shrugged, the playfully boyish smile plastered across his lips. ❝ do you need my help getting to the grocery? or could you do that yourself? ❞ he asked.

aria:

The pegasus’s blue eyes seemed to brighten at the suggestion. “Oh can I? It sounds like so much fun!” she giggled. “It’s nice to meet you too Nate.” she beamed. 

❝ you can! it’s a volunteer thing, so everyone is welcomed to join. ❞ nathaniel smiled. there were people who volunteered at the children’s library like he did, but help was always needed. ❝ there’s really no application needed, you just need to sign up at the librarian’s desk and you’re good to go. ❞

[nathanielbeau]

flyinghigharia:

Aria cocked her head and nodded. “Oh do you? That sounds like fun!” she giggled out. “I just helped put back books because she had a lot and thought she could use some help.” she explained. “Oh.. I’m Ariana Wing by the way, but I just go by Aria!” she introduced herself, “What’s yours?” 

❝ you should come with me sometime, if you’d like. i’m sure the kids are already tired of seeing my face weekend to weekend. they’ll love your company for sure. ❞ he suggested with a smile.  ❝ i’m nathaniel, but i just go with nate. it’s lovely to meet you, arian—aria. ❞

calypsolostatsea:

Her breath caught as he rested his forehead against hers, she hadn’t thought he’d actually work up the nerve to say that to her, but now that he had it was something she wanted to hear over and over again. She wrapped her arms up around his neck. “I think I have a solution for that,” she replied before lifting herself on her toes to press her lips against his.

nathaniel smiled in the kiss, finding it utterly adorable how she had to stand on her toes to reach his lips. more so the fact that her presence in his life was everything he didn’t know he needed. ❝ calypso blackwell, would you do me the honour of being your boyfriend. ❞ he said as he broke apart from their kiss. ❝ — it’s not the most romantic way to ask but i don’t think there’s any better time than now. ❞

[nathanielbeau]

castorpoison:

Castor lightly laughed at his reaction. “are you okay? what’s up with your cheeks?” he smirked, “anyway, of course. I wish you could have come around sooner so I could ask you for help. and would you happen to know if there’s any coconut water around?” he tried to smile the same way.

❝ must be the heat of the weather. ❞ he coughed, though the weather was particularly cool. he wasn’t ready for those kinds of comments. he cleared his throat and regained his composure. ❝ well i’m here now, so whatever help i can give you, i will do my best. ❞ he smiled. ❝ hmmm... ❞ he though for a while. ❝ i’m pretty sure coconut water is available at any grocery around here. ❞

elegant-princess-charity:

Charity smiled and took another deep breath. “I’m dating someone… And I’m not talking about Otto.” She clarified and didn’t say anything else waiting for his reaction. She took a sip of her drink.

nathaniel almost choked on his food as he heard what her sister just said. ❝ what!? ❞ he coughed. he raised his hand to a waiter and gestured for a glass of water. ❝ when? how? why? ❞ he was shook™. it wasn’t a bad thing, but his sister literally caught him off guard. he should’ve asked for the good news first.

[nathanielbeau]

elegant-princess-charity:

“One is good news to me at least, and the other is just news honestly.” She glared at his hand as he took a piece of his croissant but soon smiled and shook her head at his question. “Of course not.” She took a deep breath. “Which would you like to know first.

nathaniel would’ve asked first, usually. but he didn’t feel the need to because they were siblings and he could at least put the princely side a rest. he took the fork and got one of the pieces into his mouth. ❝ good news. good news always. good news, definitely. ❞ he said whilst chewing his food.

castorpoison:

“Do you work out? because you are looking quite smashing” Castor had some finger guns and made some noises before shrugging. he stood in front of him with a slight tilt of his head. ‘huh’ he sounded out. “i should have brought my notebook. but thank you. and I am sorry to say my own mortal dilemmas to you.”

❝ .... uhm... well, i suppose that’s a yes. i do, occasionally. ❞ he answered a bit bashfully, covering a splash of pink across his cheeks. ❝ oh, no it’s not a problem. i’m glad i could be of some help. ❞ the prince flashed a kind smile.

[nathanielbeau]

calypsolostatsea:

His next words made her laugh, he acted as if he were more innocent than she had originally thought. “Yes this would be the part where you kiss me, if you want to of course,” she teased as she got up and stood in front of him, her hands clasped behind her back innocently. 

nathaniel chuckled. ❝ i want to though, badly. ❞ he rested his forehead against hers. ❝ like really really badly. ❞ he said softly, like a whisper only she would hear. 

[nathanielbeau]

elegant-princess-charity:

“You sure?” She asked a bit skeptically. She giggled and sat in the chair. “Thank you, brother.” She grinned at her brother, but she soon took a deep breath. “So… I have some news… Well, two pieces of news actually.”

❝ i’m sure, no need to worry and you’re welcome. ❞ nathaniel said as he took a seat across from her sister. he raised his brow at her. ❝ i’m hoping that this is some good news. ❞ he said as he started to cut a piece from her croissant. ❝ — you don’t mind, right? ❞ he looked at charity.

[nathanielbeau]

elegant-princess-charity:

“I’m doing very well actually.” She smiled and pulled back to look at him. “What do you mean by recently though?” She asked tilting her head slightly. “I always have an hour in between classes, so I also stop by and grab my favorite snack.” She giggled and started to move to an open table, so they could sit.

❝ it’s nothing to bother you with, don’t worry. ❞ he smiled warmly, assuring her sister that nothing was out of the ordinary. ❝ of course, you do! forgive your oh-so forgetful brother. ❞ he chuckled lightly. nathaniel pulled out a chair on the table so her little sister could sit.

[elegant-princess-charity-deacti]

Charity was grabbing her frappaccino and chocolate croissant. Her normal snack since she had an hour in between classes. She went to grab a table and smiled when she saw her brother. “Nate!” She ran up to him and hugged him tightly. “How have you been?”

@nathanielbeau

[nathanielbeau]

❝ i’m doing quite well, recently, yourself? ❞ nate reciprocated his sister’s actions, wrapping her into a warm embrace. ❝ charity, my dearest sister, what are you doing here? besides of course, getting your favourite frap and chocolate croissant. ❞ he asked, confused knowing she had classes.

[nathanielbeau]

flyinghigharia:

She giggled and shook her head. “Nope! But that means I get to share them so it’s alright with me.” she assured him. “Me? Oh I like strawberry the best!” quickly she plucked the sucker out from the side of her mouth, showing off the pink color. 

❝ oh wait! ❞ he exclaimed. ❝ you mentioned these lollipops were from the library right? ❞ he asked, not necessarily in need of an answer. ❝ now  i know why these looked so familiar. in my spare time i read to children who visit the library, they’re fun little rascals i tell you, and the librarian hands them lollipops like this during a small recess. ❞

[nathanielbeau]

castorpoison:

“I’ve been one my entire life. would ever do this? why can’t you do that?no wonder, I want to just shove my art down my throat.” he said softly, walking more towards the other. “It was curious, y’see I  haven’t been eating and I want to eat more healthier but I don’t know what foods to pick.”

❝ well, i can’t really tell you what you can’t and cannot do, it’s simply out of control. ❞ he said, shrugging his shoulders lightly. ❝ i’m no nutritionist but i do suggest you start with the essential foods to eating healthy such as fruits and vegetables. ❞

[nathanielbeau]

flyinghigharia:

Aria smiled as he took the sucker and stuck the one that she had already started back in her mouth. She then tucked her bundle into her pocket. “I got them from the librarian for helping out! But she gave me so many and I can’t possibly eat them all so I thought why not share them?” she laughed. 

❝ she must’ve thought one lollipop wasn’t enough. ❞ he teased, chuckling lightly. he unwrapped the plastic that sealed the sucker, miraculously he did it effortlessly— neatly even. ❝ oh! i love this flavour! blue raspberry! ❞ he said with a wide smile of a child. ❝ what’s yours? ❞

[nathanielbeau]

castorpoison:

“either way, how it is baked or made, I am that rotten disaster.” Castor smiled at the other. “plus, how have you been eating?”

❝ why would you refer to yourself a disaster? ❞ somehow he felt sad for the boy, but the boy wasn’t sad for himself. ❝ i’m eating healthy? i guess. why the sudden question, if i may ask? ❞
