Zylvia and Fayre both looked at the door as their husbands entered the room, obviously coming to look for them . The two girls shared a look, before standing up and leaving the room, instead of making a big deal about the fact that they were not really supposed to come into this room .
Zylvia wrapped her hands around Kaldrek's arm and looked up at him with twinkling eyes . She was a bit surprised to see him . Not that she was upset, she rather liked the surprise . He slipped his other hand over her clasped fingers and smiled down at her with affection in his gaze .
"Are you two coming?" Jayesh had laughter in his voice as he looked back at where they were having a moment .
"Yeah," Kaldrek turned to look at his king, his smile was still on his face . He did not pull his hand away from her though, which pleased Zylvia as she rather liked how their position made her feel .

They walked after their monarchs, in a leisurely fashion . Zylvia squeezed her husband's arm, as she matched his pace . He definitely did not mind, from the look of the grin on his face, he rather enjoyed her arm hug . She smiled when she noticed the way he kept sneaking glances at her .
"Where are we going?" Zylvia whispered to her husband . "And why did the two of you search us out like that?"
"Jayesh was missing his queen," Kaldrek lowered his head to speak directly in her ear, "And I think we are merely heading to eat dinner, though Jayesh did not actually specify . "
She frowned up at him, "And you weren't missing me? At all?"
He placed a quick kiss against her cheek, "Of course I missed you, love, but if I went and found you every time that I started missing you, I would never leave your side . "
She blushed and looked away, unsure of what to say all of a sudden . She sighed and leaned her head against his shoulder, letting her eyes briefly drift close, as she trusted him to guide her and keep her from tripping .
Jayesh had, in fact, been heading for the dining hall . As they entered, Zylvia could hear the bubbly sound of Hazel's voice as she chattered the ear off of her very patient knight . Zylvia had to acknowledge that he had become more open to others, whatever Hazel had been doing must be working .
The young princess looked up as they entered and greeted them cheerfully . Zylvia smiled at her obvious good mood . She was growing a little fond of the young girl, and hoped for the best for her .
Zylvia blinked when she felt Kaldrek pull his arm out of her grip . She was about to frown when he pulled out a chair for her, and sat her down . As she could not very well get upset at him for being a gentleman, she smiled wryly at him instead . It did not take long for him to fetch food for them and sit beside of her .
She accepted the food from him with a brilliant smile and contentedly began to eat .
Fayre giggled, "Zylvia never changes, put food in front of her and she is highly satisfied with life . "
"Aye, sweetheart," Jayesh agreed, laughing, "It is really surprising that she is still so skinny . "
As they teased her, Zylvia rolled her eyes . She was about to retort when her husband brushed a strand of her hair behind her ear, and spoke in a soft voice, "Well, I think its just adorable . " Blushing, she suddenly became unable to actually say anything .
"Kaldrek…" Jayesh shook his head at his best friend, "You are giving me the shivers . Its so odd hearing you flirt, I mean you really never seemed to be all that interested in romance . "
Kaldrek grinned, his eyes still on Zylvia . "There is a big difference in not being interested and just not being good at it . I am trying for Zylv's sake though . " He paused and then gently teased his wife, "Besides, on the whole Zylv with food thing, at least her tendency to grow really happy when eating makes my duty to her a lot easier . All I have to do is make sure she is well fed . "
She punched his shoulder, and huffed at him, even though she was not really upset at him . The words he had said right beforehand cushioned it quite a bit .
Seeing her pout, Kaldrek did not grow worried . Instead he turned to her and began feeding her . She allowed him to do so, and found herself enjoying his pampering treatment .
