Broad shoulders fill out his jacket, and his biceps bulge beneath the sleeves. Oh my gosh! In this kind of situation Peach mind still have the power to scream how good looking this Ill tempered guy.
"What did you just called me?" Prince Caspian repeated his question. Peach try her best to avoid his question.
"I'm super busy today that's I never got the chance to come in your hideout." Well. That is a lie.
"You have my number." Prince Caspian is dead serious right now. And Peach doesn't know why.
She gather all her strength to get out of Prince Caspian grip. When she succeed, she run as fast as she can.
There is no way that she will face Prince Caspian right now. Maybe tomorrow or the next day. Who knows?
Peach doesn't care anymore if she looks like a crazy woman running fast out of the Campus premises. She need to get away from Prince Caspian. He is not good for her health.
When Peach is finally home, she just roll her eyes when she saw Mourge eating on her sofa.
"Kaye won't give you my door password. How did you get in?" She ask in her stern voice.
Mourge just point her open Sliding door. Peach look at Mourge with her jaw drop. How can she do that! Her Apartment is in fifth floor.
"Are you crazy?! What if some people saw you and call the police?" What kind of brain does this girl have? Ugh! She's a problem in Peach.
"Don't give me that look." Mourge said that make her forehead knotted.
"That look like I'm trouble. Because if I am, so you are." Mourge even point her with her spoon.
What can she expect from Mourge who doesn't have any limitations?
Peach tiredly sat beside Mourge. She just space out because she still thinking on how is she going to talk to Prince Caspian. I mean Sevastian.
"Still thinking for tomorrow's avoiding plan?" Mourge ask with a smirk on her lips.
Peach just stare at Mourge chubby face. I want to pinch it. It's too cute to ignore.
"How to be like you?" She ask Mourge out of nowhere. Mourge smirk drop and she turned deadly serious.
"Not gonna let you to be like me." It's new to Peach's ear. That sad voice. It's not Mourge.
"Why does it make you sad? You're a role model for me." Ever since she knew this woman.
She became one of her role model. She likes how bold the girl is. How she speak for what she thinks and Peach just love the way she is.
Mourge chuckle. "If Kaye heard you saying those things, I guarantee you that she will puke and look at you with her disgusted face."
Peach sighed and close her eyes while resting her head.
"Why do you keep on running away from him Peachie?" Mourge ask silently.
If I can wish one thing right now, I would wish to shut up Mourge's mouth.
"Why don't you surrender to him and become the art?" She look at Mourge with her questioning face.
"What does that supposed to mean?" Peach ask.
Mourge just shrug before smiling. "Maybe that boy needs to paint you dearly. So if you saw the finish work, you'll see what you've been missing in your life."
She's sure about one thing. She's not missing anything in her life. But Mourge doesn't run her mouth just to say nonsense things.
"You definitely know something but you keep on being bubbly. Why don't you just tell what you want to tell me?!" Mourge just laughed at her annoyed face.
Ugh! This woman is getting in her nerves!
"You want to know the answer? Then you gotta dig out your past!" Oh no. She will never gonna do that.
"I don't want to. You can just tell me what you know--" She was cut off by Mourge placing the glass cup on the table with a loud sound.
"Because you are stuck between over emotional and emotionless. You gotta out yourself with that. You're doing what I have done long time ago."
So Mourge can see what kind of personality she have.
Peach bow her head. She doesn't want Mourge to see her weak side. Peach hated it the most because somehow, they can use it against her.
"I know what you were thinking right now. But that won't do you any good. It will just make you more miserable because you're caging yourself." Mourge is right.
Everything she said is true.
"But people will take advantage of me if they saw me smiling or laughing-- or being just me..." It is the one of the story behind her lonely figure.
"You don't want to be abandoned again. Pain makes you a good writer I can see it." Peach finally look at Mourge whose looking at her with a proud smile.
As Mourge reach her head to pat it a little, she feel assured.
"I will talk to Sevastian tomorrow. No more running." I can't run forever knowing that he knew my secret.
"That's my girl! Now what do we eat for Evening?" Ugh!
-----------------------------------------------‐---------------------
This is it! Peach take a deep breath before entering the school's mini garden. As she walk slowly she can see how attractive Prince Caspian is while looking intently at his paint brush.
Peach cleared her throat to get Prince Caspian's attention. And she did. When Prince Caspian finally look at her, she can feel this annoying butterflies in her stomach making a tingling sensation.
Prince Caspian coldly stare at her. "I bake this for you..." last night after their dinner she ask Mourge to help her bake some cookies.
It's a sorry cookies. And it's her first time doing this so she doesn't know what it tastes like. Mourge didn't tell her either.
"And I'm sorry. I'm not really hiding from you yesterday. I'm just busy..." Way to go Peachie Royal! White lies!
But Prince Caspian keep on staring at her blankly. So she give up.
"Okay, fine. I'm hiding." Finally! Prince Caspian move a muscle!
"But that doesn't mean that I don't wanna see you. I'm just having some personal issues." And that personal issue is about getting a crush on you. She want to add that but of course she didn't.
"Don't do that again. It's not right." Is it just her or Prince Caspian said that in a sad voice? Peach decided to let it go as she sat in front of Prince Caspian while holding the box of cookies.
"Wanna have this? Or I'll just eat it." Peach is about to open the box when Prince Caspian snatch it from her hand.
"I thought this is for me? You have no right to eat it!" Peach grimace. No! She have the right too because she's the one who bake those cookies.
"Hmp! I'll let is slide. But I'm not actually sure about the taste. It's my first time doing this." She informed him.
"Really?" Prince Caspian ask unbelievably.
Peach nodded her head before looking at the paint brushes and the white canvas.
Mourge's voice ring in her head. "Maybe that boy needs to paint you dearly. So if you saw the finish work, you'll see what you've been missing in your life."
As she heard what Mourge said last night. She felt something more as she look at Prince Caspian.
"Are you gonna paint me for real?" Peach can't help but to ask him.
The man nodded his head.
"We will see each other more often since there is ten stages where I have to paint you with different angles and with different outfits."
Peach is asking herself if she can handle being with Prince Caspian while he paints her.
"When will we start?" She have her own things too. But then she can't dissapoint Prince Caspian.
"Tomorrow. But for today you need to come with me." Prince Caspian put his things in there places before dragging her in his car.
"Where are we going? Are we even allowed to go outside?" Does she have to ask that? Of course Prince Caspian can do what he wanted to do.
"Is this one of the perks of being a chairwoman's grandson?" Yup. Prince Caspian is the thirteenth grandson of the school chairwoman.
"Why do you have to be so loud?" That definitely makes Peach shut her mouth. When Prince Caspian look at her. He rolled his eyes.
This is why she doesn't want to talk a lot. She annoys the people on her surrounding.
"Keep on talking. I like the noise." Oh gosh. Why does Prince Caspian need to make her heart flatter every time he is around her?
