chris loved nothing more than music, he'd sit in his bedroom for hours working on a song. the way his heart would drop with the beat and his mouth will automatically start rapping the scribbled words in his journal. he knew that his work deserves so much more than this cheap laptop he uses for production and the old mic he's been using for years. but he didn't care for fame or money, he believed that his life was enough and was pretty content with it, he truly was grateful for his simple ways.

untill that all changed the second his heart started beating for you.

you were in the little crowd in front of him, jumping and dancing to the beat, screaming the lyrics with everyone else. after the show ended you went directly backstage. when you spotted chris your face lit up and ran quickly to jump in his arms.

"omg chris you really did it!"

he had just performed his very first show, only about a hundred tickets were sold if not less, but it felt so big for you both.

"did you like it princess?" you nodded your head in agreement to his obvious question. he knows you did since his eyes never left you the whole time he was on that stage. your excitement was evident to everyone.

you started the car's engine and drived to your favorite diner with chris in the passenger seat across from you. he wasn't paying attention to the music playing, only you. the way you were so focused on the street in front of you, it made him fall harder, you had no flaws in his eyes. but realization punched his face the second he saw the channel logo on your sunglasses resting elegantly on the top of your head, it made you look fancy like you always do. but it stings, how can he afford you?

his friends never stopped teasing him since you started dating. everyone knows that you were close friends from your childhood. frinds until his notebook started having love lyrics in it, but people thought that his romantic ideas were all fake just so that he can use your daddy's money and build his music career, and they are so wrong. your feelings were mutual. he meant the whole world to you and you wouldn't mind living in a little room on a rooftop as long as it's with him. but of course not all love stories are as simple as in disney movies. yours was complicated because of your parents.

your mom almost fainted when she found a love letter signed with his name back when you were still in high school, you tried to hide but it somehow fell under her hands. of course she had to tell your dad and they made it seem like the world was ending. saying things like 'he will never make you happy' or 'he's not enough for you'

maybe they meant well? maybe they truly cared for your comfort and wanted to secure your future. but it never made sense to you. you remember it vividly like it happened hours ago, that night after you fought with your parents for chris. you sneaked through your bedroom's window and went to his little apartment. you were a crying mess when he opened the door for you.

that night you fell asleep in his arms while he whispered soft promises in your ear. promises about how you'll grow up old together, promised that one day he will be enough, that he won't stop working until your parents approve of him, and if not, then he'll have to take you and runaway to build a proper life together.

but years passed and he's still sitting next to you in the passenger seat. you're his princess, you're the one who's supposed to be picked up not him. you are like a delicate flower that deserves that princess treatment. what if your parents were right after all? he promised you forever, what if he can't give it to you.

you reached the place you're going to have lunch at then get ice cream as a celebration for chris's successful show. you took a seat in your regular spot. the table you used to study on back when you were 16, and the same table he confessed his feelings to you on.

he looked at you and suddenly everything around him stopped. as if the whole town fell asleep due to a spell like in the sleeping beauty. you loved that movie so much, that's why he started calling you princess in the first place. because of how kind and gentle you are, just like princess aurora.

he was looking at the way your lashes were fluttering, and staring at your moving lips and occasional chuckle here and there. all he could think of was the way you were so out of his reach.

chris's life was so different from yours. his dreams were so simple. except for one dream, to be enough for you. how can he when money was such a villainous yet necessary part to achieve that dream. maybe it's his bad luck. but who knows? he usually likes to drift in his thoughts and imagine that he won the lottery. then if you asked for the stars he'll be able to give it to you.

he have to admit it, the way he changed. he's not the same chris who didn't care about the pleasures that life can offer. he's now a new one who's more selfish. he'd do anything for his princess.

sometimes he'd get sick from buying you flowers and taking you on simple small dates. he wanted to spoil you so bad. so he saved money till he was able to buy you a custom made silver necklace with a chain that said princess. you never took it off once. which made chris look forward to the day where he'll replace the silver necklace with a golden one, then to diamond...

memories flashed before his eyes from after your graduation, when he went to your father to convince him. at the time he thought that maybe if your dad really got to know him then he'll approve of your relationship, but all he got from that day was being kicked out like a rabid dog. he remembers crying for the first time in his life because he was scared, maybe even terrified from losing you forever. that day he completely lost all his senses, he forgot his morals and thought about stealing. he'd spend a lifetime locked in a cell if it will make you happy. and the only thing that stopped him was a notification from your contact.

chris was still zoned out. still lost in your eyes like a little boy that lost his mom in the crowd. like a sailor that lost his way back to land.

oh he wanted many things. he wanted to have his own car, to take you in it and drive to the palace that he built for you.

what if he was hallucinating? what if all those dreams he shared with you weren't real. he just can't believe it. what have he done to make you love him? your watch was enough to pay his rent for two years in advance.

your love was for no doubt forbidden, you needed him to understand that he doesn't have to set imaginary boundaries between you. you craved him just as much as he did. he thought that if he can offer you a luxurious life only then he'll be able to compliment your eyes freely. maybe if his clothes were more neat he'll get to have something in common with you, wich didn't make any sense.

you believe in his intentions more than anything else, you've been together for years, sneaking and hiding. someone else would be bored, but not your chris. many girls tried to get with him but he didn't even understand what they wanted, he was blinded by you.

right now you're enjoying your ice cream, holding hands and celebrating his first performance. who knows what the future holds for you. but all you know is that you'll keep holding into each other and to hope. chris had already walked halfway to your well guarded castle. maybe one day he'll walk right through the gates and win you forever.
