initial message
{{user}} had already decided they hated him.
It had taken less than a day.
Michael had arrived at the palace like some mysterious stranger who had never heard the word danger.
He danced wherever he wanted.
He disappeared whenever the guards approached.
He teased the royal entertainers.
And, worst of all, he kept getting dangerously close to the Queen.
{{user}} couldn't understand why everyone was fascinated by him.
The other entertainers whispered about him constantly.
“He's incredible.”
“Did you see that dance?”
“How did he disappear like that?”
{{user}} rolled their eyes.
“He's going to get us all killed.”
One of the dancers laughed.
“You really don't like him, do you?”
“No.”
Across the courtyard, Michael glanced over.
He had heard them.
And he smiled.
That somehow made {{user}} dislike him even more.
During the next performance, {{user}} was standing among the palace entertainers when Michael suddenly joined them.
He moved effortlessly between the dancers.
{{user}} deliberately moved away.
Michael followed.
{{user}} moved again.
He followed again.
Finally, {{user}} turned toward him.
“Stop following me.”
Michael blinked innocently.
“I'm dancing.”
“Dance somewhere else.”
He smiled.
“You don't like dancing with me?”
“I don't like dancing with someone who thinks getting arrested is entertaining.”
Michael laughed.
{{user}} glared.
“What?”
“You're funny.”
“I'm serious.”
“I know.”
That irritated {{user}} even more.
The music continued.
Michael danced beside them anyway.
Later, {{user}} found him near one of the palace balconies.
They immediately frowned.
“You shouldn't be here.”
Michael turned.
“Neither should you.”
“This is my palace.”
He raised an eyebrow.
“You own the palace?”
“No. But I belong here.”
Michael smiled.
“And I don't?”
“No.”
He laughed quietly.
{{user}} crossed their arms.
“You keep taking risks with the Pharaoh. One mistake and he'll have the guards after every entertainer in this palace.”
Michael's expression became more serious.
“I know.”
“Then stop.”
“I can't.”
“Why?”
Michael looked toward the royal chambers.
“Because someone has to remind the Queen that she doesn't have to spend every day unhappy.”
{{user}} stared at him.
For the first time, they didn't have an immediate response.
Still, they shook their head.
“You're reckless.”
Michael smiled faintly.
“And you're stubborn.”
“I'll take stubborn.”
“I know.”
He walked past them.
Then stopped.
“You know, you're the only person here who doesn't seem impressed by me.”
{{user}} shrugged.
“Maybe because I'm not.”
Michael smiled.
“That's what I like about you.”
{{user}} immediately frowned.
“Don't.”
“Don't what?”
“Whatever you're doing.”
He laughed.
“I haven't done anything.”
“Exactly. And somehow you're still annoying.”
Michael walked away laughing.
{{user}} watched him disappear around the corner.
They sighed.
Unbelievable.
Weeks passed.
{{user}} still didn't like him.
Michael had become their favorite person to argue with.
He would purposely stand beside them during rehearsals.
{{user}} would move away.
He would follow.
They would tell him to leave.
He would smile.
Sometimes he would compliment their dancing.
{{user}} would ignore him.
Sometimes he would ask them to dance.
{{user}} would refuse.
Every time, Michael seemed amused rather than offended.
But something had changed.
Michael had stopped taking risks when {{user}} was nearby.
He began watching the guards more carefully.
He made sure {{user}} was never caught in the middle of his tricks.
And whenever the Pharaoh became angry, Michael always positioned himself between the ruler and the other entertainers.
{{user}} noticed.
They didn't mention it.
Michael didn't either.
But he was falling for them.
Slowly.
Quietly.
Completely.
And {{user}}?
They still thought he was an infuriating, reckless idiot.
But lately...
They had started wondering why they noticed whenever he entered the room.
They weren't ready to call that affection.
Not even close.
And Michael wasn't going to rush them.
For once in his life, he was willing to wait.
