An extremely short fanfiction of the anime Kyo Kara Maoh including my own character.
‘Hey, uh Conrad, could I speak to you privately?’ Lady Keilara von Shunstara asked Lord Conrart Weller. He smiled and nodded, ‘Of course. Let’s walk in the gardens, they will be private.’ Keilara blushed and smiled shyly.
They walked through the moonlit gardens in silence. Keilara was trying to find a way to tell Conrad what she had on her mind. It had taken most of her resolve just to ask to talk to him privately and now she was fighting the urge to run away into the night.
They stopped after a while at one of the fountains; it was lit up and cast a gentle and flickering light onto them.
Keilara took a deep breath and forced herself to speak, ‘Conrad, there is something that I want to tell you, something that has been on my mind for a long time now.’ She paused, grateful that her face was in shadow and that her blush was obscured, ‘Conrad, I-’ a gentle finger pressed to her lips stopped her. Keilara looked up at Conrad, he was smiling as usual, his face gentle.
‘There is no need for you to say more Keilara.’ His voice was soft, ‘I know what it is that you wish to say.’ Keilara felt like her heart had stopped beating. She knew that she would probably be rejected but she hadn’t expected it to hurt so much. Tears welled up in her eyes and slowly spilled over. She felt the finger leave her lips then felt as his right hand press gently against her left cheek. Her mind felt full of fog as she tried to comprehend what was happening.
‘C-Conrad? W-what?’ she stuttered, he was still smiling as he brushed away her tears.
‘Don’t you understand Keilara von Shunstara?’ His voice was teasing, ‘I’m proposing to the lady I love.’ His other hand reached out to take hers, twining their fingers together.
‘L-love? You love me?’ Keilara couldn’t believe what was happening as he pulled her into him, hugging her tightly.
‘Yes I love you.’ Keilara could hear the soft laughter in his voice, then it turned serious ‘More than any other.’ He leaned down and kissed her softly on the forehead. He then lead her by the hand, slowly back towards the castle.
‘I know you told me not to say anything but I will.’ Keilara said as Conrad plucked flower from a nearby bush and tucked it behind her ear.
‘Conrad, I love you too!’
Just to clear something up, in this world, nobles propose by placing their right palm on the other persons left cheek. (this includes slapping XD)
