When the caravan stopped, Amelia was ready to run again before Noble spotted her. She took a step back, keeping herself from running to him. For some reason seeing him made her feel safe? With a shake of her head she looked at the gypsy. "Just Amelia now. Running, I angered my Father by declining the marriage and ran away. Could say he disowned me from his raging anger and I prefer not getting punished."
|
Noble licked his lips. Amelia was saying she was no longer a princess? Before the male could think about what he was doing, he opened his arms, holding them open for her. |
The arms being held out, shocked Amelia. Without a second thought she dropped her things and practically threw herself into Noble's arms. Only to blush in surprise at her actions. Didn't think she missed him nearly as much as she truly did.
|
The tanned limbs wrapped around Amelia quickly, and he buried his head in her hair. Had he really said goodbye to this little dove just yesterday? It felt like so much longer... Noble's voice was husky as he spoke, "Where will you go, then? What will you do, dove?" |
Amelia wrapped her slender arms around his tan torso and rested his head against the gypsies chest. The gentle thumping of his heart relaxed her more then she expected it. How could he have such affects on her.
She left out a shaky sigh, her voice fluttered as she tried to find her voice. "I don't know." |
"Then you'll come with us." Came a familiar rickety voice. It was Noble's kind grandmother, and she didn't look suprised at all to see the princess. "Get her on your seat, Noble, and let's make haste..." The old lady moved away, climbing slowly into a different wagon. The gypsy boy frowned. Amelia wouldn't want that at all. He released her slightly, to step back and gaze down at her curiously. |
The voice made Amelia shift around in Noble's arms to see his grandmother, the woman had been right from the beginning, she was staying. When the gypsy frowned, the former princess gently placed her hand against his cheek. "I know your sad that you have to deal with me a lot longer, Brute." The playfulness was back in her voice, "But as your grandma said we must make haste."
|
Noble was unable to hold back a smile, and he gently tugged her to his wagon. He climbed back inside, holding his hand out to help her out. "Looks like I've caged a dove once more. Come, gypsy girl." |
Amelia gladly got taken away by Noble and accepted his offered hand. "Guess I can't stay away from the danger of a wild beast." When she heard herself be called a gypsy her face light up in amazement and joy.
|
When the caravan began again, Noble settled the reins on his lap, turning to Amelia. "You aren't the princess anymore...So, would you mind if I..?" Noble left off, leaning over and pressing his lips against hers gently. |
The girl was in cloud nine. Had never expected to be sitting next to Noble now apart of the gypsies she felt so at home with. Only thing that really made her world complete was the full lips of Noble's against hers. Returning the kiss she chuckled. "Why did you even ask?"
|
Noble chuckled before kissing her once more. When the kiss ended, he spoke once more, "I can't never tell if you'd like to be in my nest or peck out my eyes, little dove." |
Amelia rested her hand against his cheek while the kiss continued. Only to smirk with the words he spoke. "Are you willing to take the risk?" She couldn't promise she wouldn't lash out at him again or as he put it peck out his eyes.
"I'm unable to tell if you are going to devour me or never let me go." All in two days she was pinned down getting ruffly kissed and the next day he was kissing her so gently. |
"What's the differance?" Noble muttered, giving her one last kiss. He turned to face forward once more, grinning and Merik plodded along. "I'm glad...that you are here. Is your father looking for you?" |
"Mmm, your smart you should know." Amelia chuckled smiling as she was kissed again. She couldn't resist to rest her head against the brood tan shoulders taunting her, exhausted from the run. "Glad to be here. Most definitely. He is probably trying to find me to force me into the marriage. My brother gladly chose to be a distraction for the success of my get away."
|
"I see..." Noble muttered. So, wheels or no wheels, the gypsies would have to speed up. Greatly. He smiled as the princess rested her head on his shoulder, and remained quiet for a bit. They didn't stop until dinnertime, when a fire started to be built. Noble nodded to his caravan. "You want to change into something more becoming?" |
Listening to Noble she look at him and laughed a little. "Do you even have to ask? But yes, I would like to change out of my torn and dirty clothes. Cutting my hair is needed too."
Amelia wanted to get rid of her the hair that cascaded down her back to her thigh. It was too long to manage and the lowest she was willing to go was to her waist. Shorter, the happier she would be. But for some reason she wanted Noble's opinion or reaction. |
Noble’s green eyes blazed, and he glared at her. “Why the hell would you want to cut your hair? C’mon, I’ll show you where I put them…I…I guess this is your home now, as well…” He led the way inside, quickly emptying a trunk. He handed her his sister’s clothes, as well as the choker with the bell that Lillith had never returned. “You know…” He mused aloud, “I owe that little necklace a lot…it was what made it possible for me to sneak up on you…” |
Amelia took the glare as a no and just pouted. "It is a nuisance, at least give me something to pull it back if I can't cut it..." She quietly followed with a smile on her face. The thought of the caravan being her home really pleased her. Didn't feel like a cage anymore and she preferred that greatly.
With the clothes in hand Amelia looked at her choker with a laugh. Taking Noble's wrist in her hand she put the choker around it then looked up at him with a smile. "It is yours then." From before Amelia slipped behind the blanket Noble had put up when he changed. Keeping her back to the blanket she changed into the gypsy clothing she was so fond of. |
The male looked at his hand and blinked multiple times. Finally, he smiled, and waited for Amelia to emerge. When she did, he stepped behind her, tugging her hair up gently. He wrapped the choker around her hair, hooking it gently. Whenever the female would move her head, the delightful little bell would sound. Still smiling, Noble leaned down, kissing her neck gently from behind. “There…tied up, and with your choker…Do you like? Perhaps Lillith could do your hair in ringlets. Most gypsy women wear them like that…” |
The twinkling laugh of Amelia's sounded as she moved her head around to hear the sound of her bell. Having her hair lifted off her back and shoulders was refreshing too. Then the gypsy clothes just topped it off, they were so light and airy.
With a kiss on a neck Amelia spun around to put her arms around Noble's waist smiling up at him. "I won't be able to run or sneak up on you... Well, what do you think? Should I get ringlets." She said twirling a strand of her hair around her finger looking up at him through her lashes. |
”Good.” He replied playfully to the sneaking comment, then grinning down as Amelia spun. “Dove, you’ll look beautiful no matter what.” He lifted the hand that wasn’t intertwined around her hair, kissing the fingertips gently. “Are you hungry?” Noble finally questioned with a sigh, letting her hand drop. “We won’t be stopping for a while longer…” |
Amelia couldn't help but like this side of Noble. Could now understand what Lillith meant and she could feel her guilt rise. Only to have it disappear with the kiss. She had been kissed like that many times but it was the first time she felt a shiver jolt up her spine. With a blush Amelia looked away.
"I'm fine. Still recovering from the run." Ameila said walking towards the door, starting to feel awkward. "Lets go for a walk while it is still nice out." |
Noble frowned. “Sorry, Dove. A walk isn’t good while we are on the road. Especially not while we are still in your father’s lands. You wanna hang out around camp a bit?” |
Amelia sighed. "I would like to see Lillith, haven't seen her since she was kidnapped and knowing you, you probably yelled at her."
