Royce Alderan | Closed Starter

It was a little strange to be on a date and completely out of arm's reach, even out of earshot sometimes, from Bella. It was simply safer this way. If the two were seen together, onlookers might not approve of spotting a werewolf and a vampire fraternizing in such a way. Or worse, someone might report back to Alderan.
Still, it was a pleasure to watch how Bella walked through the world on her own. Confidence padding the pavement with every step she took, her head held high, and all the eyes that followed her as she passed by. She's mine. He thought to himself, feeling rather proud to have won her affection when she clearly had so much freedom of choice.
As Bella got in line for a ride not unlike a merry-go-round, which had brightly painted zoo animals rather than simple horses, Royce got in line after her, a party of 7 standing between them. She peeked back at him with a coy smile and he gave her a small wink before averting his gaze.
She chose a steed for the ride's duration and Royce carefully walked the platform until he found one that allowed him a good vantage point. The two could not speak to each other while maintaining a distance, and so had found others ways to communicate. Their wordless smirks and winks went unnoticed by the other patrons of the fair. As the ride began the two locked eyes.
