“So I’m guessing you can’t just walk out the front door,” She said starting to walk.

Aurelie laughed. "I don't think I can," she agreed. "I brought this cloak along for, hopefully, some anonymity. My father would not be thrilled to hear I've been wandering around the village without a guard or something to escort me."
“He shouldn’t worry I’m here to protect you,” she said laughing lightly. “How do you usually get out?”
"I sneak out, and typically wear some sort of cloak to hide my appearance, though I haven't done it much lately after he caught me the last time," Aurelie explained. "I'm so glad I have a couple of guard friends who were able to mostly fix things."
“Why don’t you lead the way and I’ll pray that we don’t get caught?” She asked tightening her grip on Aurelie’s hand. If she got caught it really could ruin everything but it was worth it to her.
“If you want, I could ask Eli to help us with a cover and everything,” Aurelie suggested. “He’s my friend I was telling you about. He’s one of the best guards our age.” She smiled at thought of her friend.
Cat bit her lip but nodded. “Whatever you thinks best amore,” She said smiling. She may hate guards but it would probably be a good idea to befriend one.
Aurelie grinned at her. “It’s only a slight detour to where he’s usually stationed,” she explained happily, leading Cat through several empty courtyards and arches until they could see a guard, who looked a few inches taller than Aurelie.
Cat walked with Aurelie keeping a small smile on. She saw the guard. “Is that him?” She whispered. Her grip on the princess’s hand tightened slightly.
The boy turned his head and instantly grinned, his green eyes lighting up. “Yes,” Aurelie confirmed, donning a matching expression and walking over to the boy. His black hair was a mess, but his smile was genuine.
“Lee-lee!” he exclaimed. “What’s up? Who’s this girl you brought with you?”
Cat extended her arm for Eli to shake. “I’m Grace,” she answered still smiling. “You must be Eli!”
“Yep, that’s me!” he replied, still beaming. “Wait a minute, are you two like, girlfriends?” He lowered his voice on the last word and Aurelie blushed.
Cat blushed slightly but chuckled. Turning to Aurelie. “I don’t know are we Lee-Lee?” She asked a teasing smirk on her face. A selfish side of her wanted the princess to say yes but she knew that wouldn’t end well.
Aurelie giggled, blushing a bit more. “Do you want to be? Because we can be, if you want.” Her eyes were clearly saying please say yes.
“Well I don’t usually kiss people who I don’t want to date so…” She said smiling. It was a lie. She never really dated anyone or wanted to but she’s kissed plenty of people. That streak of course was ended with Aurelie.
“So yeah, I guess we are girlfriends,” Aurelie confirmed to Eli, beaming.
Eli chuckled. “You are too cute. Off to the village, I presume?”
“Yep! The usual alibi, I presume?”
“Sounds good. Have fun, you two!” Eli replied.
“Thank you Eli and we will,” Cat said smiling. He didn’t seem bad…for a guard.
Aurelie and Eli hugged quickly before Aurelie took Cat’s had and let her around a corner in the direction of the village.
Cat clutched Aurelie’s hand and followed. “Lee-lee,” she chuckled.
Aurelie rolled her eyes, but didn’t say anything. She blushed as she led the other girl off the castle grounds and into the village.
Cat paused. “Wait,” She said still holding Aurelie’s hand. She smiled and looked at the princess.
Aurelie paused, turning back towards Cat. “What is it?” she asked.
Cat just smirked and lifted aurelie’s hood over her head. “Almost forgot your amazing disguise,” she said before giving her a quick kiss. It would be the last on they could have for a while.
Aurelie giggled. "What would I do without you?" she joked, also realizing that they wouldn't be able to have another kiss for a while.
”Who knows my amore, ” she whispered smiling softly. She tightened her grip on Aurelie's hand and Continued there walk. She hesitated before talking again. ”We might run into some…friends of mine. We can say you work with me in the castle. I don't think any of them would recognize you.”
“Okay, sounds fun,” Aurelie agreed. She brightened again. “I can be your fellow maid for a day!” She giggled.
Cat nodded and chuckled. Her thumb rubbed Aurelie's hand slightly. ”You sure you can pull that off your highness?” she joked playfully bumping into her.
“Your highness? Who do you think I am, the princess?” she asked, quite convincingly. She winked at Cat.
”good one mi amore,” she whispered chucking softly as they got closer to the center of town. Music and sweet smelling food filled the air. “I know some hidden places in town by the way. Just Incase the crowds get to much.” She smirked.
“I can handle crowds,” Aurelie replied, sticking her nose in the air decisively. This wasn’t her first time sneaking out; she could handle herself.
