@pcrsonas !
✦ it’s not like prince WANTS to get married . he’s never really cared for marriage —- having watched his own father manipulate his mother until her untimely death when he was still a child —- but marriage to someone he barely knows is another story entirely . he’s not even sure how he got to this point , really . he’s been fake dating elizabeth for a while to keep his father happy and unsuspecting of his life with jaeson , and things just … got out of hand . one day he’s having lunch with elizabeth and his father , and the next thing he knows his dumb mouth is running off about their marriage plans . fast forward a few days , and it’s headline news . khim industries heir prince khim to marry actress elizabeth lee . it’s a mess , and prince knows it .
more than that , he’s not had a chance to tell jaeson yet —- and he’s terrified . he hopes the other will understand , but that doesn’t stop him from being nervous as he pushes open the door . stomach drops as he’s confronted by his boyfriend almost immediately , and he shakes his head . “ jae … it’s not like that , you KNOW it’s not like that . ” he knows it’s not an ideal situation , but it also could be a lot worse . “ it’s not … it’s not REAL . ”
“no, i don’t know, prince.” jaeson turned to face the other, “so now i have to watch you get married to someone else? what if you were in my shoes? what if i was the one that was getting married?” he asked his lover exasperatedly, brows furrowed as his lips quivered. “i don’t care if it’s not real, prince...” his shoulder slumped as he exhaled a shaky breath, his palms rubbing his face. “i just... why didn’t you tell me?”
jaeson doesn’t know if he’s ready. he was fine with them being a secret, but for the world to know that prince was married to someone else? “what if someone finds out that we’re together? i don’t want to them to think that– that you’re having an affair.” despite his heart hurting, he didn’t want prince to be blamed for something that he didn’t have any fault in. deep down, he was afraid of losing the other.
