"Thank you for taking care of us," Keith shook his hand. It was the next day; it was time for the three to leave. The stop to the village was only a short stop. They would need to ride much longer to head to the Marquis territory.
Ryan smiled, "It was our pleasure."
"Later, man." Jack waved his hand, but that caused Rebbecca to smack his head, "How could you be so nonchalant about this?! Look at your sister."
"I'll see you two in a month and a half!" Sarah hugged the two girls. They did the same as well. Anyone could see the warm-hearted scene between the three.
"Me too." "Mmhmm."
"Well, I'm not like them. Crying and doing something when we're going to meet again is just dumb." Jack scoffed.
"Yeah, yeah." Keith laughed.
"Keith, I will miss you!" Sarah hugged the man and Keith did the same thing, "Mmhmm."
With those final words, the group was now setting off to the Marquis estate. As they did, Keith made some tea, "Here, drink some of this."
"Thank you," Krystal took the cup and asked, "When will we arrive at your home?"
"I think a week or two." The carriage continued onwards. While it did, "Thanks for letting me stay at your home."
"There's no need to thank me. It was my father's decision."
"Yeah, this guy has no say in this," Carolyn added. That just caused Keith to smack her head.
"Shut it."
"But why does it feel like we've done so much, yet there's more to come."
"Oscar," Keith muttered. It was all because of that one person. Felix was one of the main culprits that caused the Philosopher Kingdom incident. But that was because he had a competitor.
Oscar Sol Gerard. He was the Solis Kingdom's second prince and a contender to become crown prince. The reason why Felix decided to make a deal was because of this man.
"Krystal, I'm sorry about what my brother did," Not only that, he was the one who correrced Rodrick to try to overthrow Edmund.
"It's not your fault. You were also part of the scheme," Krystal shook. One brother tried to mess with her while the other was set up by the older one.
"There's nothing we can do about this; we'll just leave it up to Julius and Edmund. Let the adults handle it and relax."
"Okay." Ending it like so, there was a serene silence where Keith yawned, "I'm going to take a nap. Tell me when we're going to take a break."
But as he did so, Krystal and Carolyn sat on both sides of him.
"What are you two doing?"
"Taking a nap as well," They had decided to use his shoulders as pillows.
"Suit yourself." Keith didn't mind that as he knocked out. But that was when he noticed how the two girls held his arm tightly.
"..." I'm not getting any sleep, am I?
"Young-" "Shh!" Keith quickly moved a finger to his lips. That caused the knight to nod as he mouthed that they would set up camp in a few minutes. Keith nodded. Guess I won't be sleeping. These two were allowed to.
But when it came time for bed, something was brought up,
"How about the three of us sleep together?" Keith almost spat out his food, "Are you kidding me? Why bring this up?!"
"Well, without Jack and Sarah, there's a lot of space, so let's just sleep together." One tent could house four people. So, one person using it was kinda overkill.
"…" Keith blinked and wanted to say something, "You and I had already slept in a tent before, so it's fine."
"But Krystal-"
"I'm fine with it!" Krystal stated. Carolyn would only be asking if she had gotten her permission.
"Eh?"
"It would be nice," That was when the two grabbed his hand, "Come on! Let's go in and sleep now!"
"Wait!" Keith glanced at the knights, requesting for help. But the only thing those knights did was grin.
"Our young master is walking up the stairs of adulthood."
"And with two beautiful girls as well."
"Ahh, so envious of him.
…Do I look excited about this?! Keith's eyes narrowed as he wanted to fight them. All he knew was that they would get it when they returned home.
"…" There was an awkward silence between the three.
"I will take the side," Keith decided.
"Huh? Why are you taking the side?"
"Should I not?"
"You should be the one taking the middle."
"I don't like that look on your face." That grin was saying many things about what she had planned for him.
"Just sleep in the middle now," Carolyn grinned as she shoved the man over. Keith shook his head as he was prepared to go to sleep. But that was when he felt two weights on his arms.
"What are you guys doing?"
"Hold each of your hands."
"Why?"
"So you don't do anything naughty."
"Then why even have me here?!"
"Ehehe, because we're scared." "…Indeed."
Krystal, you sound so unbelievable. Keith sighed, "Come on, go to bed, or else I will attack."
"Okay!" The two didn't hesitate as they raised the man's hands and used them as pillows,
"So soft." "….Yeah."
"Hah," Keith sighed as he went to bed. There was really nothing he could do about this. That was when,
"Cuu!" "We want in too!" Fira and Ruby didn't hesitate to jump into this as well.
“…”
…
The next morning, Keith had gotten out of the tent. And when he did, the knights all had grins as they stared at him. It was quite something.
"What?"
"…Nothing, Young Master."
"Then get to packing up! We're moving," Those dark circles under his eyes were messing with him. He couldn't get a wink of sleep. When you were surrounded by all sides, it was messing with him! What made it even harder was that they were breathing under his neck.
The thought made him shiver.
"Kay!" The knights quickly went to pack up, but that didn't help the fact that they had smiles.
