A smile grew over the lips of Chase, hearing her accept his impromptu proposal. He then poked her side gently with a smile on his face, when he heard her speak about her father. Nodding, he kissed her cheek. "Promise me, he won't find out until it is official." He then held her close to him and then heard her ask a question.
"I had come out here, seeing you. I wasn't sure exactly who it was and I thought it was just my eyes playing tricks on me. But I am glad that it is you. Though, if you would like, I can go so you can continue with your practicing, it was never my intention to break your focus." He smiled and held her close, hoping that she would spend more time with him rather than train, but it was truly up to her.

"Normally, if I were training at home," Vanima said, a grin creeping across her face. "I would growl and throw a stone at whomever interrupted me." She thought about it for a moment and then chuckled. "I believe you have been victim of my throwing stones. So no worries about interrupting my focus. I much prefer to focus on being with you Chase."
She stretched out a bit, one arm still around his waist. "As for telling my father, I plan to not tell him until I have a ring on my finger." She laughed, hoping he would share her sense of humour. "I know how my father can reacte to certain things."

A slight laugh escaped Chase's lips as he nodded. He was actually glad that she would rather spend time with him than training. After all, she could train after the two were finished spending time with one another, but for now, he was hers and she was his. He tightened his grip around her waist slightly before kissing her cheek once more.
"So, tell me, have you had a tour of the castle yet? If not, I would be honoured if you would grant me the ability to." His light brown eyes were fixed on hers as he waited her reply.

She looked up into his eyes and nearly got lost. "A tour of the castle would be lovely my darling Chase." She smiled, picking up her bow and quiver. "I have only seen parts of it when I first arrived and met Helena."
Vanima then kissed his rough lips and chuckled. "Do you mind if we stop by my chambers for a moment so that I may drop off my gear?" She inquired, placing her small hand in his. His hand was roughed with callouses from fighting, but she didn't care.

Looking into the eyes of Vanima, Chase smiled a bit and nodded, taking her hand in his gently. With his other hand, he grabbed his spear and pulled it from the ground. Her hand was soft, much softer than his own and it felt like heaven upon his own. A smile grew over his face and he nodded. "We can stop by there. I need to stop by my own to drop off my spear."
After his words, he slowly began to walk towards the door that would lead them back inside the castle. At the door, Chase swung it open and waited for Vanima to pass through before following rigiht behind her.

Vanima followed Chase back to the palace, bow in one hand and quiver slung over her shoulder. When he held open the door for her, she moved quickly inside. Although it was nothing like her home, she could see herself adjusting to life here, especially now that she and Chase were together.
"The palace is very beautiful." She commented, looking around. "My chambers are rather large, larger than I had expected." She added, pushing her bow over her shoulder as well. Once her hand was free, she uncoiled her hair, letting the braid fall down her back.

After Vanima was inside, Chase followed behind her and shut the door. A smile grew over his face, watching her long hair fall down her back. In his opinion, she was attractive regardless, but now with her hair down, she was even more so. Hearing her words about the palace, Chase nodded a bit. "It was my parent's design. I like them, but it may be a bit big for my likes."
Chase then shrugged before reaching out for Vanima's hand once more, hoping that she would lead the way to her chambers. Hopefully the two would have chambers close to the other so that they could see each other a little more throughout the day.

"Well, you've seen my palace. Just a wee bit on the extravagant side." She chuckled, shaking her head. Taking his hand, she motioned in the direction of her chambers. "My chambers are this way." She smiled, tugging at her braided hair. It fell loose over her shoulders and she gave her head a good shake.
"Where are your chambers?" She inquired, hoping that he was close to hers, just in case there were any midnight meetings. Her cheeks flushed as she thought of those moments, thinking she was getting ahead of herself.

Laughing slightly, Chase nodded in recollection of her palace. She told the truth. His was on the plain side when compared to hers, but that didn't change the fact that his chambers were a bit big for one. Soon he noted her motioning in the direction of her chambers and smiled to himself as they started out that way.
"My chambers are in the same direction. Perhaps someone knew something that we didn't when they assigned yours to you." He then smiled to himself, thinking of what kind of meetings they could have. Watching the stars was now not out of the question, nor was anything else conceivable.

"Really?" Vanima chuckled as she continued on their way to her chambers. "Maybe you are right Chase, but I know not of anyone who may have known about our past." She smiled, pushing a strand of hair behind her pointed ear.
"I don't suppose we could watch the stars together tonight could we?" She asked. It had been a while since she had just sat and watched the stars, and the gardens she had seen looked almost perfect to do so.

Chase thought for a moment and realized that he hadn't spoke of their encounter either. So he wasn't sure what was the meaning behind the placement of her chambers close to his. Shrugging it off, he looked to her once more and smiled to himself. It was all coming back to him now, the beauty that she holds is unparalleled.
Then she asked a question and Chase nodded quickly. "I would love to watch the stars tonight with you. The garden would be an excellent place to do so. It's safe and has a wonderful view of the sky. I often go out there when I just need time to myself to think."

"It is a date then." She smiled, then motioned to her chamber door. "Well, this would be my chambers." She openned the door. She still held tight his hand, and pulled him into her chambers with a giggle.
"So, now that I have you in my chambers what shall I do with you?" She chuckled, putting her bow and quiver down on a chair. She debated about changing quickly, knowing as a princess it would probably be better for her if she wore a gown instead of her trousers. "To change or not to change?" She mumbled to herself.

Smiling, Chase followed or rather was dragged into Vanima's chambers. He looked around briefly, noting that it looked like the rest of them. Surprisingly his room was right next door to hers, but he wasn't going to say anything about it just yet. Soon he heard what she said and smiled a bit before looking to her.
"Hmm.. don't get too hasty. We should finish the tour first, before doing anything like that." He kissed her cheek gently before hearing her debate about changing. "You can change if you want, but the palace is kind of big and there is a bit of walking involved, so if you want to stay in trousers for the time being, I'm sure it'll be fine."

Vanima chuckled and gave him a mock pout. "Well now you're just not being fun." She said, kissing his nose. Thinking for a moment, she came up with what to wear. "I knew I had these trousers for a reason." She said, moving to her clothing.
Pulling out what looked to be a skirt, Vanima disappeared behind a screen and changed quickly. When she emerged, it looked as though she was wearing a skirt, but when she took a step forward, the skirt parted like pants. "I had this made a while go so that I could be comfortable, but still look presentable." She informed him, taking his hand again. "Shall we continue our tour then?"

Smiling a bit, Chase waited while Vanima decided what to do and then waited a bit more as she disappeared behind a screen. After she reemerged, Chase looked to her and smiled. This might have been the most beautiful he had ever seen her. He watched her and took her hand gently, holding his spear in his other hand before heading towards the door. Once there, he opened it up and allowed her to walk through before following.
Once the two of them were out of the room, Chase took her hand again gently before leading the way to his room. The next door down, he stopped and looked to her. "And here is my room." Smiling he leaned his spear against the door before opening it up. Once it was open, he walked inside with her and laid the spear in a rack that held an assortment of weapons. His walls were plain as he wasn't an artist and the room was pretty plain which would give a good reason as to why he felt it to be too big for him.
