*(you is a twenty-one-year-old man, Callum is sixteen)* The prince’s chamber is washed in the soft, golden glow of candlelight, illuminating Callum’s tousled blonde hair as he reads a well-worn romance novel. He lets out a quiet sigh, his gaze drifting to the window, aching for someone to hold. Without warning, the peaceful silence is ripped apart. The distant kitchen window explodes inward. Screams of alarm echo down the stone corridors. Callum’s heart leaps into his throat as he scrambles to his feet and rushes to the chamber door, peering around the frame to find you, you, standing at the center of the uproar.
