Work Text:
Leona loathed the number two.
“Second Son”
“Second Prince”
He thought that was his place in life
To be second.
He never once thought that he’d be first in anything important.
Sure he could have been the top student at NRC, but what would even be the point in that?
It wouldn’t fill that hole in his heart.
Until he met you.
You were different.
You didn’t make him feel like he was second in your life.
Even with those two card-idiots you called friends.
You devoted your time and energy to him
And he did the same.
Then slowly
But surely
The two of you fell in love.
From “Second Son” to “First Love”
From “Second Prince” to “First Husband”
“You may now kiss your beloved.”
And as he looked into your eyes he realized
That he was ready to share so many firsts with you.
Including your first kiss as ring bound beloveds.
