You had been living in a small settlement of the west side of Centopia for as long as you could remember. You had never gone to the central kingdom. So it came as a surprise when you received an invitation to the butterfly festival that was being hosted at the royal palace. All of Centopia had been invited, and you were giddy with excitement. You had woven flowers into your hair and pulled on your most expensive top and started making your way to the Palace of King Raynor and Queen Mayla. You loved flying. It made you feel so free. Moments like these were why you loved living in Centopia. You landed in front of the castle, taking in all of its beauty. You were so distracted by your thoughts, that you didn’t realize there was someone in front of you, and you ran right into him.
“Oh!”
Came the voice from the other.
“Oh my! I'm so sorry!”
You apolgized.
“Hey, it's totally okay. I'm used to getting run into. My friend cannot fly for the life of her.”
He replied.
Cutting himself off from his own tangent, he looked up and finally got a proper view of your face. You noticed him stare for just a moment longer than usual.
“Oh sorry,”he said, rubbing their back of his neck, before stretching his hand out to shake yours.
“Mo.”
He introduced.
“Oh, Y/N”
You said.
Mo sighed. You could practically feel the stress emanating off of him.
“You okay?”
You asked.
“Yeah, i'm good. It’s just, i'm so tired of these parties, but i'm required to attend.”
He said shrugging.
“Tired of them? They seem so exciting! This is my first one!”
You replied, in disbelief.
Mo cracked a smile at your excitement, before a look of adventure spread across his face. He took your hand and nodded towards the palace.
“I have an idea, come with me.”
You followed him through the crowds of people, stopping when you arrived at an extravagant dessert table. Mo reached for a miniature cake shaped like a butterfly and placed it in your palm.
“Here, if this is your first party, you have to try some of the royal desserts. Trust me, the royal chef knows what she’s doing.”
You smiled, there was something about Mo that felt familiar, but you couldn’t place it. He was so sweet and his excitement after he began showing you around was so endearing.
You had finished three mini cakes when he lit up with another idea. He pulled you through the back door and into the palace garden. In the yard, there were rows and rows of every type of flower you could imagine. Some were glittery, some were reflecting a rainbow color and some held magical abilities. He bent down and picked up one of the rainbow colored lilies and handed it to you.
“Milady,”
He joked with a smile.
You gently took the flower, turning to hide a rosy blush that had spread across your face.
You took a deep breath in, taking in the beauty of the palace garden.
“PRINCE MO!”
Came a voice from beyond the door.
Mo turned to you.
“Come on, it’s time for the ceremony to start.”
You dashed back into the palace and were met with Mo’s royal hand maid, who looked a bit frazzled.
“Mo! Where have you been? Your parents were looking for you.”
“Sorry,”
He replied sheepishly. A deep blush crept over his face and he glanced at you.
“I got distracted.”
He stepped closer to you, instantly relaxing once your shoulders touched.
“The maid pulled the prince away.
“No time for that now. Come along.”
She pulled him up to the throne display where his parents were waiting.
“Ah Mo, dear. We were afraid you had gotten lost or something.”
Queen Mayla half joked to her son.
“Come and sit down, it’s time for the butterfly ceremony.”
King Raynor said, gesturing to the petite throne designated for the elf prince.
Mo sat down next to his father. His energy seeming to diminish, now that you weren’t with him.
The king and queen began addressing the guests and rambling on about the balance of nature, and welcoming spring. Mo rested his head in his palm and yawned. Just as he was about to doze off from boredom, the queen tapped on his shoulder.
“You ready, Mo?”
She asked, holding out a rope that was secured to a net.
Mo glanced at the net and realized there were hundreds of butterflies restrained beneath.
“Yeah one second, mother.”
Mo dashed off into the people-dense room to find you again.
“Y/N! Y/N! Where’d you run off too? Come here I want to show you something!”
He spotted you talking to a group of serpents. Likely the same race as Polytheus.
“Y/N!”
He shouted once more, stepping closer.
“Oh, excuse me guys.”
You said, politely excusing yourself from the conversation.
“Oh no bother, go ahead.”
The female serpent snickered when she saw the scarlet blush on Mo’s cheeks when you acknowledged him.
Mo took your hand and nodded politely to the serpents before pulling you up to the throne stand where the king and queen were still waiting impatiently.
Mo picked the rope back up and handed part of it to you.
“What are we-?”
You asked before he winked, cutting you off.
“You’ll see.”
On the count of three, you all lifted the rope up, raising the net and releasing the butterflies around the room. It was a truly magical sight.
“Wow!”
You exclaimed, twirling with delight, while the butterflies weaved between your outstretched arms.
“This is beautiful!”
“Yes they are. They remind me of you.”
The prince replied, with an uncharacteristic level of charisma.
Now it was your turn to blush.
The butterflies still danced around the room, golden dust shimmering off of their wings.
“Come on Y/N, the party isn’t over yet.”
And with that, the prince takes your hand again , interlacing fingers this time and pulls you back into the festivities.
(Hope Y’all enjoyed! I had fun writing this!)
