Prince and his Knight.

[longwinded]

As a young Prince, John was granted to have one Knight around him at all times. The top of the newest class, the strongest in the Kingdom. That was what John wanted, and he would have no less. That was how he met Dave, a stunning young man who....didn't say very much, but was certainly worthy of fighting by his Lord's side. The age difference wasn't too stunning. John a mere seventeen and Dave in his mid twenties, it wasn't long before they became friends. It wasn't like this was a shocker to John, he and Dave had many things in common and sometimes the line between being a Lord and a Knight and just being two regular best friends was extremely blurred.

"Dave!" John calls out to his Knight. It seems that something is deeply troubling him.

It's the start of a new chapter in young John's life. Rumors of him being married off to the Princess in the neighboring Kingdom were running high and it was something that was giving him quite a hard time. It was his loyal Knight Dave that got most of the whining about this. He was a quiet and patient fellow, one that would actually listen to him when he needed to speak.

He doesn't even wait for Dave to acknowledge that he's been called. "We are going out for a little while, could you prepare the horses?" Which usually meant a conversation in the woods was about to happen. John needed to blow off steam.

He listens to John because John wants him to listen. As simple as that. He was John's knight. Someone to protect him through thick or thin. He was loyal and would always be even when no one else would be.

When John asks him to prepare the horses he gives a curt nod and leaves to the stables. A question from John is an order. There was no room to consider answering with a no. That would be ridiculous of him when John obviously wished to go riding. He would tend the horses first before saddling them up proper and bringing two out for John and himself. He made sure everything was secure thrice(you can never be too sure) and awaited John outside with the horses so they may depart.

He was quiet the entire time.

Just as promised, John will be waiting at the horse stable to meet up with Dave so that they could venture off for the day. He’s by passing his lessons for the day and he’s not going to attend lunch with his mother or father. He has to settle this with Dave once and for all. His feelings were strong and pure, he wishes he could call the honorable. But what was honorable about the fact that he wished to take advantage of his knight? That he wished to leave the kingdom just so he didn’t have to marry the princess in the next castle.

Nothing was honorable about those things.

He strokes his horse’s mane as he waits. He did arrive a little bit early so that he could have some time to think to himself.
