Tipsy Time (Part 2)

-Karen-

I tried to compose my thoughts. Hm. What all did she say again? “Well, she was asking if we have done anything yet like, uh… Something about kissing? And then she said we were cute together.” I giggled trying to remember the conversation. “She said that I should just give in to you because you can satisfy me. Whatever that’s supposed to mean?” I felt my cheeks get hotter. “But servants and royals aren’t supposed to mix like this- Ever.” I continued with a frown. “If I weren’t so low on the pecking order, I think it would be fine to be your companion. But I’m like dirt next to you…” Dirt next to a pillar of pristine granite.

“You’re not dirt. You’re not even close to that!” Conor said curtly. His expression left me taken aback. Is he really serious? Why does he keep saying these things?

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to upset you, Prince Conor. I guess I- I just don’t see myself as something someone like you should be chasing after. I mean you can do so much better, but here we are.
