Reborn as the Princess' Knight (GL)

Side Chapter: Veronica and Peter.

Narrator's POV

There were buildings, beautiful and modern. Students who wore strange uniforms but it felt right. Vehicles drove alongside the road, near the path side someone was walking along to. "Hey there! I've been waiting for you for so long!" a girl not too far shouted holding her sling bag on her shoulder.

"I'm sorry! I got up so late!" that voice. It was a man's voice. It felt really familiar and nostalgic.

The girl pouted, there were flying planes above the air and the girl held his hand dragging them into a metal gate but inside of it was a really prestigious looking building. "We're late for our next class! I swear, why did you even go to the same college if you'll just going to make me wait again!"

Who... was she? School? Building? Vehicles? What was this?

.-.-.-.-.-.

The sun was just rising up.

A woman stretches her arms back, blinking half awake and seeing her husband snoring loudly beside her made her day complete.

The light from the window shone on her green hair and brown eyes that showed gentleness, she plops her elbow down to one of the pillows and leans in close to kiss her husband's cheeks.

"H-Huh?! I-I won't be late again I'm sorry!" The snoring stopped, Peter exclaims his sudden outburst wondering where was the really beautiful building he saw before and realized- it must've been a dream.

He could only feel the warmth of the kiss through the touch. Including the girl's hands on the dream he had. Veronica looks at her husband curiously, was it another dream? "Late for what? We're actually both on time as always, darling. Was it another dream?"

"Oh- Veronica good morning." he yawns trying to rub away the morning stars in his eyes tiringly. That dream was really weird.

Veronica giggles quite seductively while she gives him another peck on the cheek. "Good morning to you too, Peter."

Peter could only smile and did his best to sit up straight while Veronica wrapped her arms around him like a little koala, already forgetting about the dream that happened this morning. "What do you want for dinner later?" (Veronica) asks.

"Hmm... I'm good with anything, how about you?" (Peter) answers by holding Veronica's arms.

"How bold are you this morning? You're asking for such a thing I haven't even showered." She kisses Peter in the neck and he turns into a beet red state.

"N-No! I meant you know- the other thing. How about you- what would you like? Not you-you."

"I'm merely joking, Peter but it's always adorable. You still get flustered even after all this time I just couldn't help myself." (Veronica) teases her husband to which Peter responds with a sigh and some pouting.

"I'll cook your favorite then, it will be packed as usual for work. Speaking of which you're almost done building the school right?" (Veronica) asks curiously about her husband's work. It always fascinated her how a fine person like him could balance life and family.

"Yes, Miss Kein's request will be done in a few more days. We've already done all the construction, the only thing they need now is interior materials and staff." (Peter) yawns once more, kissing Veronica one last time before sliding to the left side of the bed to stand. "Half of the payment has already been sent by their Butler, Alfred."

He takes his [Storage Ring] and takes out a coin pouch, handing it over to Veronica. "This is my share of the pay."

Veronica smiles widely holding the heavy pouch. "We'll be set for Matthew's education if he wants to pursue something in the future." She imagines her son in a knight's uniform, perhaps a mage- or an adventurer. Whatever he chooses the both of them were sure to support him.

They might not have hundreds of gold, acres of land, or money to their name.

But they sure love their kid.

"Wouldn't that be wonderful? Although it will be quite lonely without him." (Veronica) pouts, imagining her little bird leaving the nest.

Peter laughs at his wife's remark, "It will be but thankfully he's just a kid still. We have time before that happens." he reassures Veronica. "And what do you mean you'll be lonely? You have your amazing husband accompanying you everyday when you wake up and sleep."

Veronica shoves him playfully before standing up. "You know it's different. Now get yourself cleaned up in a bath. Off to work you go I'll get breakfast done by the next hour."

Peter nods, walking towards her, moving the little green streaks of hair and kissing Veronica's forehead. "I'll go wake our son up. He'll be attending the new school once its opened so he needs to learn how to wake up early."please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

"That would be nice. I'll see the both of you down then." (Veronica)

The both of them continued on to their merry little marriage life together. Veronica making breakfast and Peter going up the second floor of their house.

Being a good father Peter is, he knocks on the door first and yells, "Matthew wake up. You have to start getting up earlier because you have to get used to it for school."

He could hear some groaning and a faint reply, "What the heck is school?" (Matthew)

"We've talked about this before Matthew. Now get up and greet your mom for breakfast." (Peter) says and there were some yawning as Matthew opens the door following his dad below.

Veronica was handling the stove powered by a small magic stone that has a fire element on it. She was making bacon and eggs, the smell was really strong and tasty. The two couldn't help but be impatient for it to be cooked. "They're all done." (Veronica) grabs the food garnishing it with some vegetables on the side before giving each of them a plate.

"Thank you Mom." (Matthew) says thankful and happy. Peter smiles at his wife who winks at him.

As the three of them ate, when it was all over Matthew was playing with the vegetables on his plate wondering something. "Mom, Dad, will I be going to school by next month?" (Matthew) asks a bit worried about what kind of place a school will be.

"Yes, you'll be taught magic, how to read, and how to write. Isn't that wonderful?" (Veronica) moves over to pat his head and Matthew groans.

School is a new word for them, but the word ran around the city when the Baron's daughter suddenly decided that she'll build a place where commoners can have a stable pillar of education.

Nobles and Royals both worried that by giving commoners education would lead the rebellion to have more talented commoners on their side to fight against them.

However, the king ignored all of this and thought that his people needed education so the countrymen could contribute better things to the kingdom.

Some other children are excited, while the others are so unfamiliar and are not willing to give it a chance. "I already know how to write my name! And besides, teacher Rose is not there to teach so what's the point." (Matthew) complains crossing his arms.

Veronica awkwardly rubs the back of her neck awkwardly, remembering that the old girl that used to teach at the orphanage was actual royalty. She wonders to this day why of all those years seeing together often, no one noticed that she was part royal.

She had one horrible mouth, not really much of an elegant person, and was a goofy kid to the core. She was either a very good actor or she picked up the way of the commoner on the time she stayed in the streets.

They were all fooled, even Veronica had a good judge of character but she never pegged Rose to be the second princess- oh to how she teased that little girl with the little charmer was fun but will teasing someone from the royal family lead you to prison?!

Peter saw Veronica was saying nothing so he decided to take it upon himself to lecture their son. "Matthew, you know that Rose had somewhere to go. What you need to focus on now is yourself, you might even get new friends and I heard Alice will be going in there. So chin up."

His ears perked up from the name. Alice, the girl next door? She'll be in school?

"A-Alice will be there?" (Matthew)

"Yes, now stop being broody and get ready to help your mother by the stands because soon you'll be one busy man." (Peter)

"Alright dad I'll get going to this school thing but only for the education and stuff." he says finishing the vegetables on his plates. Veronica rolls his eyes and Peter sighs, "Boys and their excuses I tell you." (Veronica) cleans up the plate as the other two go on and gives Veronica a confused look.

After cleaning up the three of them went on their daily routine.

Veronica went to her shop to sell her weaved bags. Matthew tagged along to help her out.

.-.-.-.-.-.

"I miss them already." Peter went to work with a couple of earth magic users and went on building the rooms and hired enchanters to have it enchanted by magic.

pαndα noνɐ1,сoМ The people working on the construction wiped off the sweat running on their heads, the other workers carried logs of wood and placed them on the ground gently, the others sifted cement and got to work. "We'll be needing more support rear in the front. I'll go ahead and order more bricks for us."

He was diligent with work. He looked up at the current building and saw how similarly close the design was to the dream. "I guess... whatever that dream was gave me the inspiration to do this." he says, keeping a hold of the blueprint.

Soon the Baron's Daughter will arrive from her mission, and they must finish the project.
