Chapter 8: You Smooth Talker... {Noi}

{Your P.O.V}


I decided to go after Noi, he was clearly my obvious choice!


I started running after Noi, I can't see him in sight but I do see his foot prints on the sandy floor.
After running for what felt like 5 minutes, I found Noi! He was standing on the beach looking at something..? I wonder what it is?


"Hey Noi!" I shouted


Noi jumped because he was startled, he then turns around and as his eyes locked onto mine smiled.


"P-Princess Y/N!" Noi explained smiling bright


"Noi? What are you looking at?" I asked


Once I got to Noi I knew what or more like... who he was staring at. It was Seb!
He was in a swimsuit as well! Even though I didn't make one?


"Hey Seb, why are you here? and where did you get the swimsuit?" I said smiling


"When you all teleported away I came along! Also your 'Aunt' made me a swimsuit" Seb explained


Ohhh danggg.


"Welp, why don't you and your boy toy go take a swim in the ocean?" Seb suggested


"B-boy toy?" Noi stuttered


"Seb! No!" I barked


"Alright, alright! Soon..." Seb chuckled


I just frowned.


It's not that I didn't like Noi, it's just the thought of him being a 'boy toy'...
But why can I actually see him being just that...?


I feel my cheeks warm up slightly.


"Do you like the idea?" Seb asked me


"I-I! Well... ye--- no!" I stumbled on my words


Seb shines a toothy grin at my reaction.
I never react like this! I must really favor him ❤


"L-let's go swim!" I say dragging Noi towards the ocean


"B-but! I don't know how to...!" Noi says a little scared


I stopped.


"You never swam in water before?" I asked


"Back at Daemos we never ever had a relaxing day. We always train for war, we never learnt how to 'swim'..." Noi explained


"So I've heard" I muttered


I hug his arm and pulled it close to my body.


"Well, if you don't know how to swim then I will teach you!" I say happily


"U-uh! I-I! P-princess Y-Y/N..!" Noi stuttered crazily


"Uhmm... Noi? Are you ok?" I asked


Noi was blushing like crazy, he was as red as a tomato.


"Noi.exe has stopped working. 'Your Noi has encountered a first grade bone--'" Seb said before I cut him off


"Seb! Do not finish that sentence!" I exclaimed a little panicked


"It's true! Also, I think to fix the problem you need to let go of his arm" Seb commented


"Why is that?" I asked and I looked at his arm, then I looked down


Is it because..? His arm is touching my--- Yeah! Nope!


I let go of his harm so quickly and Noi's face was still red.
He's quite adorable when he blushes like that.


"Well, just follow me Noi. I can still teach you how to swim" I state


I walked towards the ocean and once I stepped into the water a cold shiver shot up my entire body.


"Cold...!" I mumbled


I turned back to Noi and waved to him.


"Come in Noi!" I exclaimed


Noi looked uneasy for a few seconds, then he walked over to me.
Once he stepped in the water his expression changed.


"AHH!! Why is it so cold!?!" Noi screeched 


"It's water... But you will get use to it once you stay in it long enough, trust me!" I grinned


Noi was unsure about the whole situation, he stayed still for a while until Seb came up behind him and pushed him over.


"Go over to her lover boy!" Seb shouted, laughing a lot along the way


Noi screeched once again as he landed in the water, he was screeching even more because of how cold the water was. I think if he keeps rolling in the water like that he might drown in 2 feet deep water or even get cut on a shell, maybe even a rock....


I walk over to Noi and help him up from out of the water.


"You can relax, ok? It's just water. It doesn't kill anyone" I reassure Noi


Unless you drown... That's the only thing that can happen.


Noi nodded in response and he calms down, thank god.
Because if he kept at it like that than I wouldn't be able to teach him at all...


I take Noi's hand and walk him deeper into the water, so we can have a good water depth to teach him how to swim.
Once the water got up to my waist, I stopped in place, this was a good place to teach Noi.
that sounds weird....


"Ok Noi, can you just, lay down please?" I ask


And Noi does as said, laying on his back like an obedient little puppy.
But then he starts to sink, he started to scream again but I just place my hands directly on his body to help him stay up.
But it wasn't working so I just decided to use my magic to hold him up.
He is still frantically moving, you know, I think I only can't hold him up because of the fact that he is moving so frantic.


"Calm down Noi!" I yelled


Noi just stops in place.


Wow, he really is like a puppy.
...Cute.


"Noi, you have to keep your posture like this. Relax, then you will be able to float on the water" I explained


"But Princess Y/N, i'm already floating" Noi replied


"I'm holding you up with my magic, so you won't drown" I stated


"What's drown?" Noi asked


"Oh god, it- It's nothing to really worry about Noi, but i'm sure you won't drown" I muttered


"Oh! Ok!" Noi smiled sweetly


"Ok, Noi, you can relax now, think about the thing that calms you the most, the thing that makes you happy" I said


As the words escape my mouth Noi follows my instructions, closing his eyes in the process. His body loosens up, he's not tense anymore.
He looks really relaxed, he's even smiling.
I can't help but smile as well.


I then stop using my magic to hold him up, he was actually floating!


"You're doing it Noi!" I squealed


Noi's eyes shot open and he started to squirm and panic again.
He then started to sink into the water.
I didn't want to use my magic again, so I just want to do it the old fashion way.


"Come closer to the shore line" I said as I begin walking towards the shore line.
Noi followed closely behind me and once I got into the appropriate spot I motion Noi to come lay down again.


Once he does however I tell him the same thing I did before. 
Think about the thing that calms you most, the thing that makes you happy.


He does once again and he began to float, for real this time! Without my help.


"Noi, open your eyes, but just keep thinking about the thing that makes you feel calm and happy" I murmur


Noi opens up his eyes and he stared into my eyes. His orange orbs staring into my (e/c) ones.


"I don't need to think, because I already have what I was thinking of right in front of me" Noi mumbled as he smiled


Noi's cheeks where tinted red, I felt mine starting to do the same as well.


But... He said that-- Does that mean I make him happy? and.. calm?
But he was panicking just a little while ago...


"You smooth talker..." I pouted


"I was only telling you the truth" Noi said


Oh now you have done it!
Well, should I tell him the truth as well..?
He deserves to know...


"Noi, I have something to tell you..." I murmured


"Hmm..? What is it Princess Y/N?" Noi asked


I got tired of standing and I sit down in the water, I then kinda 'drag' Noi (Not really drag, but he's floating on water so it won't hurt him that much) so his head can rest on my lap.
His cheeks are still tinted red, but he's a little more redder than before.
Maybe it's because of physical contact? I mean- his horns are just slightly poking me in the waist.


"I'm not exactly sure you feel the same way, but I just wanted you to know..." I said


I move my hand to cup Noi's face.


"I really do love you Noi, so much" I mumbled


"L-love..?" Noi stuttered, his face turning tomato red


I nod.


"Yep, I love you" I whisper


{Noi's P.O.V}


Princess Y/N loves me...!?!
She really does...!


Then Princess Y/N slowly comes closer to my face, my face was heating up so much... What's happening to me?!
I close my eyes tightly and then I felt something covering my lips. I open up my eyes and they quickly shot open.
What is Princess Y/N doing?! 


She then pulls away, staring in my eyes.
My face is burning up.....!
Is this what love is..?


"Oh shoot, sorry Noi!, I didn't even prepare you" Princess Y/N said panicked yet still managing to laugh


"I-- Uhmm... I-it's fine" I stuttered


Princess Y/N then scoots away from me and then stands up.
My head dunked into the water a little.


"Sorry if I made things awkward. But I just wanted you to know, because that's how I feel" Princess Y/N said with a chuckle


"You don't-" I was cut off by Princess Y/N talking over me


"I'll just leave you to be, I need to cool off anyways" Princess Y/N says


Then, Princess Y/N teleports away.


"Well, she needs time to herself kid" Seb said


"Did I do something wrong Seb?" I sit up and ask


"No, though she thinks she did something wrong" Seb muttered


"Tell me, how do you feel towards Y/N?" Seb asks


"Huh? W-well, Princess Y/N is a nice are caring person. She also believes in me more than anyone else" I mumbled


"Looks like you both gained a grade A crush, good on you two!" Seb chucked


"A... Crush...? As in how you crush people?" I ask


"Ehh... No... It's a different kind of crush-- you know what?, find out for yourself" Seb says before walking away


"H-hey! Seb! Where are you going?!" I shout


"I'm going back to the resort! I'm board" Seb wined


"Don't leave me here!" I yelled back, getting up off the ground


I ran towards Seb, mainly because the sand was still burning hot.


But... Princess Y/N loves me? I asked Ava the same question, despite me not getting a answer, she still likes me.
Still, the bigger question is... Who do I love more?


I've been with Ava longer, but Princess Y/N is always helping me out.
Also, I would be able to show off to the others that I got a powerful sorceress princess before them. Maybe they will finally look up to me!, be proud of me!


But, I don't want to use Princess Y/N like that. She doesn't deserve to be used.
She's too great of a person to be used and wasted.


I'm getting that feeling in my chest again... Like how I got it all those moments ago, and also how I was when I was with Ava.


But, this feeling was a whole lot different with Princess Y/N.
I feel like I want to do anything to make her smile.
I feel like I want to do anything to make her happy.
I feel like I want for her to be mine, and only mine....


Princess Y/N...❤
