The flower garden that can glow in the night. Lotus's seem to cover all of the flowers. Why is that...?

Rui looked at the yellow-haired man. Butler clothes he had on. Meanwhile the man wore elegant clothes, such the finest, he must be the prince. Thy must respect the royal, not the underclass. But will he even survive being the underclass working under this beautiful elegant star? Assassinate. Underclass's have jobs, just like the workers, or more likely called the slaves. Those jobs are the greater enemy, more than the royals. A red pool will fill the room with no trace behind. Evidence is found, but not enough. Death in their most beautiful places, royal needs protection. They only need the protection because they're royal, if they weren't you would be beheaded to your death to your punishment.
The royal could do anything. They bribe the evil, the twisted. The innocent may be the people in the village, but they are also not innocent. Everyone has done a sin before. No one will ever know if they have the skills, which is why the offer the jobs to underclass people, assassination.
Rui looked at the man who is siting quietly in his seat with his elegance. "Such a pretty boy." Rui said to himself quietly. The man whom sat at the chair, then looked upon Rui and greeted him to sit down. "Ah, Rui." The man looked at Rui with warmth. "Sit down, sit down, you must be sick of just standing and watching me have the best." Rui nodded. "Yes, sir." "Don't call me sir!" The man ordered. "I told you to call me as my name!" "Okay, Mr. Tsukasa." Rui said. Tsukasa pouted at him with an angry expression. "Fine, fine." Rui sighed. "You never call my name like we are close!" Tsukasa complained to Rui about his behavior when it calls when Rui calls his name. "I may be royal, but please address me with my name normally!"
Rui then made a sly fox face. "Hehe, but you'll accept it. Right?" He giggled while he watched the prince blush his little face red. "I-I... Hmph!" Tsukasa hmphed. Rui then laughed out loud. "You sure are cute..." Those little words slipped out of Rui's mouth. Rui was shocked by his sudden saying and covered his mouth. Tsukasa had heard his slipped out thoughts. His face became even brighter. By now, Tsukasa looked like he was vibrant warm colors! "D-dismiss what I've said." Rui excused himself. His face was also blushing red. "I..." Tsukasa didn't know what to say. "I'll dismiss you..." He ordered. Rui followed his command and he was then sent to his room. The lovely and beautiful charm he had was now gone. The presence was now gloomy and dark. Something Tsukasa doesn't like.
"Why did I fall in love with him? He is my target." Rui said to himself behind the closed doors. Tsukasa, a prince who is targeted by people. He is innocent, but the people are cruel in this world. They try to ruin the happiness that people get, so they'll never be happy again. Rui, is an underclass. He was assigned to be an assassinator. He never knew that he would fall in love with his target. "This job is going to be hard even more now..." Rui covered his chin with his hand, trying to figure out a plan to trick the people that he has indeed did it. "I'll try then..." He said. He then went to his desk and sat on the chair. He took out some papers and a fountain pen.
Old paper. Old paper that was coffee brown. Rui decided he would write a letter to the people who gave him this target. He doesn't want to end these target's life because no matter what, he realized something. All of the targets are innocent. Whenever he looked very deep in detail what they have done wrong, they didn't. This mostly applies to the prince he fell in love with. He wrote this:
"Dear Assassinators,
I have an plan to end the life of this prince. I will make a fake deed I did with the enemy, and the prince will execute me. That will be a private matter only to the prince and nothing else. I, Rui Kamishiro, will enter his chambers once at night. He'll call me the beast, but I won't mind.
This deed will not disappoint you. Please have some patience.
From Kamishiro Rui "
This will be enough to trick them. Writing this with his own hands, made him disgusted. What was he doing? Why is he doing this? He is a professional, but he has never assassinated anyone ever. His heart felt sad like the gloomy presence.
Rui finally ended the letter, and he went to the window. Waiting for the bird to come and call the people with his announcement. 'I will be waiting for your end.' He looked up. Leaves fall on the balcony. "I..."

The prince lay on his bed all curled up. He looks sad, but happy at the same time. "I finally got to talk to Rui..." Tsukasa said. "he barely even talks to me, only follows my orders..." The yellow-haired and pink ombre sighed. Once he is sad, he needs some help. Tsukasa squints his eyes, and looks at the sun shining brightly. “I wonder what’s he up to.” Tsukasa thought. He wondered what was making Rui like this. At first, when he met Rui, Tsukasa could clearly see that Rui was happy at that time.
“I wonder what happened.” He closed his eyes. Tsukasa right now as tired. “I’ll sleep then,” he said. “I’m tired after all of the work I had to do.” He then lay on his bed and slept in the bright shining sun that showed its rays to Tsukasa’s face. Several hours has gone by when Tsukasa was asleep. Now, it is evening. Tsukasa yawned from his bed and stretched. “I finally woke up.” He said blinking his tired awoken eyes repeatedly. ‘Maybe I should call Rui.’ Tsukasa then stood up from his bed, and got ready. He then went out to ask one of the maids if Rui was seen here and that he could talk to him. “No,” Said the dear maid. “I’ve never seen him. He must be out shopping.” She sighed. Tsukasa then excused her and asked somebody else. Yet, their answers were always the same. The chef said, “Kamishiro? I don’t see him.” And then the other maids said, “He’s maybe doing laundry.” After all of that asking, Tsukasa then finally knows that the people around him was useless. Then, he went up to one of his interesting maid. This maid was very quiet, but Tsukasa felt like she knew everything. “Um, excuse me.” Tsukasa came up to her and said in a polite tone. “Have you seen Kamishiro Rui anywhere? I haven’t seen him ever since my sip of tea at the beautiful garden.” The maid looked up at him, and said, “He may be in his room.” Tsukasa’s eyes widen. He never checked Rui’s room! “Ah, alright.” Tsukasa said. “Thank you dear maid!” He thanked her as he ran to Rui’s room.
There, a door. The door made Tsukasa feel uneasy. ‘This presence…’ He never knew that he could find this presence anywhere in Rui, but here he is. Tsukasa knocked on the door. “Rui?” He called out his name. “Rui? Are you alright?” Tsukasa is worried that Rui is going through something bad, and that’s why he’s acting like this. “Are you asleep?” Rui didn’t answer Tsukasa’s question. “I.. I won’t bother you then.” Tsukass said with sadness and walked away from Rui’s door. Tsukasa’s footsteps faded away as he went somewhere else other than Rui’s room. Rui, who was inside, was staying quiet for a reason. He doesn’t want Tsukasa to know that he is targeting him as a job, but he loves him. He cannot let him die, so he has to do it himself to die. “I‘ll wait.” Rui Said.
