In a way it felt like a giant weight had been lifted off of the Prince’s chest. Harboring the secret of his identity and true reasons for coming to Elias was much to bear. He was amazed he had not spilled sooner to Hercules about his true self. The consequences of his actions and the wrath of his brothers - Florian more so than Kit. His eldest brother had always been so soft hearted he would simply scold Philip with a look of disappointment before actually maiming him the way Florian would, was all worth it. Foolish was often a word to describe Philip Charmont. he was, there was no doubt about it and he wouldn’t try to deny it. Call him foolish if you must, but he needed this. He needed some sort of relief and although it came in the form of a girl he barely knew but loved with all his heart then so be it. he was foolish.
“It’s okay.” It wasn’t but that’s how most people responded to situations with no way of fixing them. Philip had to be okay. For many people, his father, brother, his kingdom were all riding on philip to be okay with the situation at hand. He wasn’t, however, he wasn’t okay with it but there was nothing he could do. nor nothing the beautiful blonde before him could do either but her sentiment didn’t go unnoticed. In fact, it made Philip’s heart swell with love. If they could find some common ground in their predicaments perhaps they wouldn’t feel so alone. As much as she wanted to help Philip, he prince wanted to do just the same. Whatever it was that was troubling her Philip would do his best to slay those problems. As he listened, Philip realized that their situations were fairly similar. In one instance his entire life had changed as well. Now he was residing in a city he had not heard of prior to living here and living a life that in all honesty was not meant for him. “It sounds as though we are both in the same boat here.“ his lips gave way to a half smile. He tried his damndest to make it as warm as he could but there was now a sadness behind it. “that you’re what? Why couldn’t you see me again?” there was a slight panic in his voice. He did his best to mask it and the hurt the grew in his chest knowing she was told she couldn’t see him. What had he done? Was it because he was a prince? Had his father done something? His mind was wondering to endless possibilities. It won’t make you happy. His heart began to sink at the words but he pulled himself together putting on the brave face he was taught to have. He had to put his own sadness aside. He had to. “Please, tell me.”
