Third P.O.V


"Aren't you going to greet the lady?"


(Y/N) snapped out of their daze when Gabriel jabbed them with his elbow.


"Welcome to the Stan estate. I am (Y/N) (L/N). What might your name be?"


(Y/N) said while kissing the woman's hand.


The woman didn't respond, so the princess did.


"My friend is a very famous painter, but she is incredibly shy. Would you show her to the gardens?"


(Y/N) noticed a bag that said 'painting supplies'.


"I would be honored, your highness."


(Y/N) picked up the bag and lead the woman to the garden. The walk was silent, but comfortable.


"This is the gardens, feel free to roam about."


(Y/N) said before sitting down by a tree. The woman set up the easel a few feet away from them.


The wind blew, the birds flew, and (Y/N) and the woman were at peace.


After a few minutes (Y/N) decided to speak up.


"What are you painting?"


The woman barely looked up.


"It's a secret."


(Y/N) pretended to pout.


"Could you give me a hint?"


(Y/N) asks. The woman pauses.


"Something beautiful."


(Y/N) laughs.


"'Beautiful'. Such an interesting word. What does it mean to be 'beautiful'? Someone who has beauty on the outside, but have disgusting insides? Or have an odd outward appearance, but have a kind heart? Through that conclusion, the answer is that-"


"-'True beauty lies within'."


The woman finished.


"It's been awhile since I've heard that quote."


The woman said softly.


"Tis I."


(Y/N) said dramatically.


The two just admired each other for a moment.


"Angelica."


The woman whispered.


"What was that?"


(Y/N) asks, not fully hearing what she said.


"My name is Angelica Kingston, you may call me Angelica."


(A/N: 'My name is Angelica Schuyler~' sorry, couldn't help it!)


Angelica said with a smile.


"You may call me (Y/N), Angelica."


(Y/N) decides to look at the painting.


"Wait!"


But (Y/N) had already seen the painting. It was (Y/N) sitting by the tree.


"You're right, you did paint something beautiful..."


Angelica blushed.


"..but you neglected the most beautiful thing in the world."


Angelica tilted her head in confusion.


"What?"


(Y/N) smiled.


"You."


Author's Note: (Y/N) is such a smooth-talker!
