Ladon looked on as the prince left the building, leaving him in there with Carlisle. He gave a look to the man, one full of tiredness but gratitude. "Thank you," he said to him genuinely. Although he was confused on the situation, no they were probably all confused, about what was going on. He was grateful for his offer, and he surely guessed that they would be needing a place to stay the night. Mint tea sounded good, even to him. The dragon was beginning to tire from flying all this way to Cendra. Although he wished to stay there, he sighed, knowing that the prince probably wished to discuss in private. He turned to the doctor. "I will return shortly," he then said, taking slow strides out the door to where he thought Luhan might have gone off to. As he walked he continued to think. Surely Luhan's father would notice their departure, and would most likely send for men to search for them. But was that what the prince really wanted? To return to the palace? Ladon knew that they would have to make a decision, especially now with this... situation. What was it really? Was it a child? Was it even going to be able to survive if it was? Many questions swirled through his mind, and once he was done pacing he then spotted the prince, sitting underneath a tree.
Long shadows cast as Ladon walked toward him, the sunset slowly shrinking into the distance. It was beginning to get cold, and soon they would have to go back inside if they did not want to catch a cold. He then took a few steps closer toward him, looking at him in concern yet had a somber look on his face. "Luhan, are you alright?" he seemed to be asking him quite frequently. But it could not be helped. Things were very stressful for them recently. Perhaps now was the time to discuss their future. However, he knew that Carlisle could give them some privacy in his home, which had kindly extended them to. "We should head back inside soon, before it gets too dark," he then said, his voice gentle. |

Luhan curled up his knees to his chest, burying his head between them. A soft sniffle escaped from him, rubbing his face afterwards. Was he supposed to feel ashamed for his actions the past few weeks? Surely enough, he wasn't feeling proud either. Now he has to face consequences.. if he really was pregnant, that is. Soon he heard footsteps - was someone walking towards his direction? He looked up as his ears perked up in full alert, only to lower them back down at the sight of Ladon. He nervously played with his fingers as he averted his gaze. He didn't care much about it getting dark soon, surely he would be unable to sleep either way. "I'm..a mess.." He mumbled in a low tone, slowly standing up before rubbing his nape. Of course, this whole situation wasn't easy for Ladon either. "..How are you feeling?" He looked up to meet his gaze, walking closer to him. "That must have been..really stressful news for you." He wrapped his arms around himself to warm up, as the cold air hit against his skin.
What were they going to do now? At this point, Luhan wouldn't be surprised if Ladon wanted to run off and forbid himself from getting involved. Every time they spent time together, it only resulted in trouble - and now there was this sudden news, which was unexpected for the both of them. If the diagnosis was really true, it wouldn't be long before his stomach would grow, thus raising suspicions in the castle. Speaking of raising suspicions - did nobody notice how he kept missing, and running off with the guard? A soft sigh left his lips at the thought. At least, there weren't any scandalous rumors yet, not that he knew of. He would have to come up with more excuses to his father about his absence. Unless.. He shook his head as if dismissing his thoughts. Somehow their problems would be solved if they were to... travel far away and join another clan. But that would be crazy, wouldn't it? It's not like a prince could just vanish from thin air and live all his life in secret. But if Ladon wanted to.. Luhan would have to take it into consideration.

Ladon continued to look down at him, not removing himself from that spot. His eyes were full of concern, however his face was probably showing less of expression. "I... I am unsure," he spoke, feeling a gust of icy wind blow through his short dark hair. It was the honest truth, he wasn't sure what he was feeling. Tired, perhaps that was the word. But in reality he knew about what the prince meant. Him being pregnant, with a child. Had there not been the possible consequence of it going direly wrong, Ladon would be happy. However, a child would also mean many more things for them. What would his father think? What would they do? Where would they go? All of those things made him question the very thought of their existence. Perhaps the prince should leave him now to escape the heartache but... Ladon couldn't stand the thought of him gone. His life would be without meaning, and he would have to find another job again. Change his hair color, his personality, every aspect of himself to blend in once more. But now, he didn't want to do it. He wanted to be with him. And now he realized, these harsh feelings that he had, were because he would do anything within his power to make it work. And to ensure the prince's happiness as well. He wasn't sure if the prince would be happier without him, but he had led a life stuck within a castle, under a harsh father. It made Ladon wonder.
Though none of those things he voiced, instead he just continued to look at him thoughtfully. "No... This whole situation, has," he said, eyes averting away then back toward him, although now with more concern than before. "I was thinking... perhaps..." he wanted to suggest. Anything that would help them achieve their goal. But, he wanted to know what Luhan thought first. He shook his head before speaking again. "Luhan," he stated, not his title, just his name, just like he had asked him to so long ago. "Do you desire to be the next clan leader?" He asked somberly, hopefully he would know what he was meaning. |

He bit on his lower lip, beginning to feel guilty for dragging Ladon into the mess that was his life. But even if Luhan wasn't a prince, their relationship would still be difficult as there were a lot of clans that would be hunting down dragons. At least he would be able to stay by Ladon's side.. They'd fight through obstacles together, and they wouldn't have to hide their relationship as much. Surely, it would be easier for them to raise a child if the king and his citizens were unable to follow the prince's every move. But.. maybe the dragon didn't feel that way. Maybe he wanted to stop the relationship and not have anything to do with him any more. Or maybe he wanted to move to another town, remain as a guard, who knows..
A frown was able to be seen over his worried expression, feeling somewhat nervous when Ladon began to speak but he wanted to hear what he had to say. His expression softened at the question, exhaling deeply before smiling lightly, rubbing his nape. "I..I've thought about that. And to be honest.. Maybe this is my cowardice talking again, but - I do not wish to be a clan leader any longer. It was my goal for a very long time.. but the kingdom deserves better than that. I want to be with you.. live the rest of my life with you." His cheeks began to flush, shyly averting his gaze. "I mean.. if you feel the same way too. If you don't wish to be with me any longer, I understand." He pressed his lips together in a firm line, nodding reassuringly. "Why do you ask...?" he curiously tilted his head to the side, his fingers remaining curled onto the hem of his shirt.
Perhaps he was being too forward, rumbling on about nonsense. He was taught to always put logic over emotions - his kingdom over love. But he could not help feeling this way. For the first time in his life, he found someone that made his heart flutter, made him feel in a way he could not put into words. Ladon was someone that he could freely talk to about anything - and he wanted to be with him as long as possible.

He stared at him seriously, the cold winds picking up his dark bangs that hovered over grim dark eyes. It did not take him long to think. He had thought about this for a very long time but he wanted the prince's favor first. What he wanted to do in this life. Indeed, he had a shorter amount of time living than him, although, now what they were going to do, what they were about to do, would dramatically change their lives in the long run. He didn't doubt that Luhan would make a fine clan leader, however if he wished not to, Ladon preferred that much more. His father was doing a fine job ruling the clan on his own. However it would happen, the guard would remain true and do anything within his ability to ensure that it will work. Even at the risk of job security if he must. And, if Luhan ever got into trouble for this decision, he would do everything within his power to protect him. Not as a guard. Just as Ladon.
He then took a step forward, his eyes not gazing away from his and continued to stare at him somberly. He then reached for his wrist, and would then take it as he placed his other hand over his own. "Luhan," he began seriously. He knew what he wanted. He always did. But, now was the time to actually make it happen. "Let us run away." There was a moment of silence afterwards, probably to let his words sink in. He then let go of his hand and took a step back, looking downward and to the side, near the bottoms of the houses shaded in the evening shadows. "I will do anything, everything in my power to make this happen. I won't let anything happen to you, nor to us." He then faced him again, looking at him with more of a sad concern. "I wish for us to be together as well, but this is going to be the only way." It was a harsh truth. He knew that if they returned, his father would send him off to be married to someone else. It was enviable. And for once, the dragon was selfish, to have this life as many humans had had. He never had thought of himself to be in this position. He never even thought of the concept of falling in love with someone. Someone that wasn't a dragon especially. However, perhaps this was apart of learning about what life was as one of them. A life that the lonesome dragon never fully understood. Then he turned away, in the direction of the clinic. He was willing to make it happen. He would find a place. Another job perhaps. Anything. "Let's head back," he said in a low tone, before beginning to walk that direction, knowing that Luhan would most likely follow as well.
