"Well get to it farm boy! I wan't to see my face shining in it by morning" She ordered smirking
He looked up at her the traces of an almost-not-quite smile on his face
"As you wish" he replied steadily his eyes never leaving hers.
Allura turned where he couldn't see her and frowned. She shook it off, turning to give him a sneer before stalking off to her house.
She burst into the house, her temper flaring. Angrily, she made her way to her room, slamming the door shut in the process. "UGH! Of all the nerve!" She screeched.
Her cat Coran went flying off the windowsill landing on the floor with a hard thud. He watched as Allura sighed, flopping back on her bed.
He made his way over to her and jumped up. Allura immediately started petting him while staring up at the ceiling.
"I just don't understand, He has that annoying little smile that's not actually a smile and his voice always sends a chill up my spine. and that stupid mullet" She complained huffing.
Coran meowed down at her cocking his head. This sounded an awful lot like love to him. Allura gave him a weird look making Coran meow again.
Complaining about a boys features. Weird looks. Sounded like love alright.
"I don't get it . . . He doesn't even need to work for me he could a perfectly good job somewhere else in galriore" She mumbled
He meowed raising both his eyebrows knowingly. Allura stared at him for a few seconds in disbelief.
"You mean he . . . Might like me?" She asked shocked.
Coran nodded practically smiling. His princess was getting it.
"Well . . . I suppose that's not a bad reason" she murmured "a stupid reason. . .But no, not bad" she added softly.
She lay there for a few seconds more before sighing and getting up to to go make supper. For the first time in a while though, she had a smile on her face as she worked. The idea of someone loving her didn't sound bad.

Allura quickly fell in love with her farm boy. She knew he loved her as well, but neither made a move on it. Then one day she was in the kitchen preparing dinner.
Her attention, however, was stolen from the food when he walked in. She watched as he strolled over to put away firewood. He started to leave, and Allura felt the urge to make him stay.
"Farm boy!" She called he turned around violet eyes sparkling in her vision.
She looked for something her eyes catching on the pitcher that hang just out of her reach. "Fetch me that pitcher?" She said it sounding more like a request than an order.
He walked over stopping only a few inches from her lips. He grabbed the pitcher effortlessly holding it in between them.
Allura found she couldn't move from where she stood and her heart had become a beating mess.
"As you wish" he whispered softly.
And that was it. From that day on they were both completely in love. No holding back, no hiding. Just them.
It was true love.
Then he decided to test his luck across the sea to win themselves a better life. They stood where he was ready for departure.
"Are you sure?" She whispered He smiled gripping her shoulders
"It's true love" he reminded her smiling "You think this happens everyday?" Then he was gone and with him all her heart.
When she got the news she went into her room. She didn't sleep and she didn't eat. She just didn't know what to do without him.
Finally one day as she was staring out the window she came to a decision.
"I will never love again" She whispered
But it was in vain. No more than five years later she was picked as a bride for the prince. She did not love him despite his reassurance that she would grow to love him.
Then she got kidnapped. Three ruffians, One a former drunk who was a well studied fencer. Another who was a gentle giant who liked rhymes.
And the last, a scholar and philosopher. She hated him the most especially all his talk of realities.
Then she was handed off to that Pirate. The dread pirate Rolo. The one who took her only love.
She was shaken from her thoughts when he suddenly stood up talking. How he couldn't have not killed him because he would've looked soft.
Finally she had enough "You mock my pain!" She cried standing up indignantly in his face
"Life is pain highness!" He replied harshly his cold eyes staring into hers. "Anyone who says differently is selling something" He finished turning away.
Allura huffed and sat back down on her rock. If it were not for her burning hatred of him she would be in tears right now.
"I remember this farm boy of yours, I think. This would be what?, Five years ago?" He asked turning back around and sitting so he was at her eye level.
She nodded softly feeling her heart seize in her chest.
"Does it bother you to hear?" He asked
"Nothing you ever say of my paladin could ever upset me" She whispered He nodded standing back up pacing with his hand on his sword
"He died well, that should please you, No bribe attempts or or blubbering He simply said please, please I need to live . . . It was the please that caught my memory"
Allura watched as a hateful look swept over his face. "I asked him what was so important to him . . ."True love" he replied and then he spoke of a girl of surpassing beauty and faithfulness, I can only assume he meant you" He stopped pacing to give her a slight glare.
Allura stood up narrowing her eyes. Just what was this filthy pirate insinuating?
"You should bless me for destroying him before he found out what you really are" He snarled
Allura stood up in his face again her anger flaring "And what am I?" she challenged loudly staring him down.
"All he talked about was your faithfulness, madam. Your enduring faithfulness. Now, tell me the truth. When you found out he was gone, you get engaged to your prince that same hour, or did you wait a whole week out of respect for the dead?" He spat his dark eyes a stormy violet.
"You mocked me once! Never do it again!-I Died that day" She shrieked loosing her composure.
She saw an unknown emotion flash in his eyes and his expression softened. There was suddenly a faint yell and they looked up to see the prince standing on the ridge.
She narrowed her eyes seeing her chance now that he was distracted.
"And you die too for all I care you monster!" she spat venomously
He turned but it was too late as she shoved him down the hill. she watched in satisfaction as he tumbled until three words drifted up from the wind.
"As . . .you . . .wish" It was faint but she could never mistake her loves words. She gasped realizing just what she had just done.
"Oh my sweet Keith what on Earth have I done!" she gasped
She took a step forward to walk down after him, but she tripped and then she was tumbling down the hill with him.
They lay at the bottom for a few seconds, each sore from falling down the hill. Allura slowly sat up wincing, but it was quickly forgotten as she registered Keith walking over to her.
His mask had fallen off revealing his now slightly longer mullet pulled into a ponytail. He made his way to her and She took in his appearance hungrily.
"Can you move?" He asked cautiously reaching for her. They slowly stood up him holding her shoulders.
"Move? Your're alive, If you want I can fly" She laughed tears glistening in her eyes.
The look in his eyes turned sad "I told you I would always come for you, Why didn't you wait for me?" He asked quietly
"Well . . . .You were dead, Prince Lotor wanted me, and whatever he wants he gets." She sighed looking down.
His hand found her chin and he tilted her up to face him. The look in his eyes was soft with understanding.
"Death cannot stop true love, All it can do is delay it for a little while" He whispered touching his forehead to hers.
"I will never doubt again" She replied breathless once again at his touch
"There will never be a need"
Then his lips were on hers. Oh the taste of him the way he held her. She could feel every single horrid memory of the last five years without him wash away.
Prince Lotor would chase after her, but she no longer cared. She had what she wanted, and needed. And she was never going to let go again.
After all it was true love.
