— Duties around the castle and field were always tiresome, at least. For the knight, it is. But the moment his assistance was called upon by the prince of the underworld, he smiled faintly to himself. His exhaustion melting away when his gaze met his, it was like his boyfriends had cast a spell on him. Making him want to stay here, in this very room where all his duties seems to vanished out of his mind. Creating a moment of solace and peace.
“Tiring day?” Nico asked, just coming out of the bathroom with a peace of white cloth in his hand to wipe out the remaining water in his skin. He set the cloth down somewhere in his desk, Mōna couldn't be bother to notice the action. Too focus on the way Nico's onyx eyes glint with love and fondness, the way his abyss coloured hair rest on his shoulder, the way his figure was caught by the orange light outside of the balcony window.
And that's when Mōna's shoulder relax a bit, because this, this is what inner peace feels like. Being with someone whom you greatly love more than anything. Nico chuckles at the look he was given, his olive skin flushing. Eyes lingering over Mōna's face, too sweet, too warm.
Mōna teared his gaze away, reluctantly so. He press a hand on his neck, an awkward manner he always do everytime he got caught on something cheesy. Though, neither Nico and Will really mind. They find it quite endearing despite Mōna being a bit embarrassed by it.
The knight cleared his throat when he realize he haven't answer Nico's little question about his day, tiring ones were always the usual, but it's worth it if he gets to see Nico or Will or both in the end. “You could say that it is, your highness” he observes the room, noting a particular someone not being here yet like he normally would “where's Prince Solace?” he asked, his eyebrow raised.
Nico was about to answer, till the door suddenly opens and a familiar sun walks in a with confident stride. “Right over here” Will interrupts from behind, startling both Nico and Mōna a bit at his sudden entrance. Speak of the devil...
Will gave Mōna a smile, it made Mōna want to squint or look away at how bright it was. But he didn't, so did Nico. “and you know it's just us three, right? You don't have to call us with royal titles” the blonde said, wrapping his arms around the knight's waist.
Mōna let out a huff, he didn't pull away. He leaned his back on Will's chest, his hand resting on top of the arm that was wrapped around him. “My apologise, it's a habit. Besides, I don't want anyone hearing us being like this. Too much risk.” he voiced out, glancing at the door of the room, expecting someone might eavesdrop and hear.
Both Nico and Will exchange worried glances, not at the possibility of someone hearing (they could just silence them), but at their third lover. They knew—as much as they didn't want to admit it— was already at risk by dating them both, and the thought of something bad happening to him left a twisted feeling in their stomach.
Nico walks towards them, his hand cupping Mōna's pale cheek, slowly making the taller male tear his gaze away from the door and into the familiar warmth in Nico's eyes. “You worry too much, amour. No one will ever hear us, or at least, tell anyone. We'll make sure of it.” he promised, leaving a lingering kiss at the corner of Mōna's lips. The knight's shoulder relax again at the reassurance, right. He almost forgot that they have authority over others, still. The worry within him never left, still there, still haunting.
Will press a kiss at the side of Mōna's jaw, the feeling of those warm lips pressing against his skin made his mind turn blank. He guess it wouldn't be too bad to finally stop worrying over things when he could focus on what's happening now.
He would still remain vigilant either way.
After a few minutes of comfortable silence, and them standing in the room, holding each other as if they're afraid to let go. Will let a smirk slipped his lips, his eyes sparkling against the light.
“Can we go to bed please? I'm tired of standing, makes my feet hurt" Will whines, tightening his hold around Mōna. His cheek nuzzling slightly against the smooth metal of Mōna's shoulder armour. Batting his yellow eyelashes at the two of them.
Mōna and Nico rolled their eyes in sync, caught themselves doing it and look at each other in the eyes. Nico laughs while Mōna sighs fondly. They decided to agree with Will's request and start getting ready for bed, they don't want to let go of one another, but they knew they have to in order to be comfy and presentable and out of the usual outfits they use everyday.
And if anyone asked why Mōna is staying in Nico and Will's room? No one bothers on questioning. Too afraid of the consequence if they did.
Mōna was the last one to come out of the bathroom, sporting on a comfy outfit of white and light blue pj's that his boyfriends once complimented how cute it looks on him. Since then, Mōna would sometimes wear it if it isn't in the laundry basket.
He bask in the sight of his boyfriends snuggling against each other, his eyes softens ever so slightly as genuine affection bloom over his chest at seeing them happy, almost melting when their eyes lit up at the sight of him finally coming out.
“Finally, thought something have secretly killed you back there” Nico joked, a hint of sarcasm in his tone, his head shaking. He made room for Mōna to lay on to. Which the white haired male accepts the invitation gingerly. “Doubt that they could." Mōna said, Will grins at him “Well, ain't ya feelin' bold today?”
“Shush” Mōna scoffs, reaching to flick the blonde's forehead “You won't get rid of me that easily” Will yelp at the small pain in his forehead, rubbing it with his finger to sooth the stinging pain a bit. He glares at the knight, there was no malice hidden in it, just pure playfulness. “Hey! That was unnecessary!” “It was definitely necessary.” Nico chimes in, the corner of his lip lifting up in a smirk.
“Dorks.” Mōna fondly says underneath his breath, and they both heard it.
“Your dorks” Nico said, intertwining his hand against Mōna's own. “and you're stuck here with us whether you like it or not” Will added, wrapping his arms around the both of them, pulling his boyfriends close that there was barely any space between the three of them.
The night continues on, no duties, no paperworks, no preparations. Just them, tangled in a bundle of limbs and sharing sweet kisses here and there. Reality is the worse when it comes to forbidden love, but right now? The only thing they could focused on is each other. And that's what matters.
