Charlie was completely undone before the princess who smoked cooly and issued those careless smirks. It was really the lack of eye contact that bothered her. She felt disproportionately exposed by the fact that the princess’ eyes were hidden behind dark sunglasses. It left her feeling more open to scrutiny and so she remained stiff and stoic under that particular pressure.
“Um, ye- yes. I have met them.” Charlie’s nod was a good-natured and innocent one. "Briefly. At my Naval graduation. And for the interview." When Anita opened the door, her hand immediately shot out to push it open farther. Somehow, she felt it was her duty as a guardswoman to hold the door open. She had no idea if this inclination was based in any fact or true requirement.
Charlie hesitated in the threshold. She wasn’t sure whether she was supposed to enter the home or not. Her tail twitched erratically behind her and her ears seemed unable to decide what to do. THey pinned back briefly in her embarrassment before springing upwards again and twitching nervously towards the sounds coming from within. She wandered after Anita, assuming the invitation.
Owen and Julianna had fallen asleep together, cuddling as it were, in a homemade blanket and pillow fortress. They had made the structure with Nicholas who had become bored of the activity and wandered off to entertain himself in his own room. Owen and Julianna took advantage of the comfy structure and laid down together and accidentally napped. The sound of Anita’s voice calling to him roused Owen.
He jerked awake and nudged at his wife who lay in his arms. “It’s Anita.” He said with sleepy excitement as he untangled himself from her. Owen rose and helped his increasingly obviously pregnant wife up. Owen then moved quickly towards his daughter who he scooped up in an enthusiastic hug. He wrapped both arms around her and lifted her slightly from the floor before putting her back down again. “Hey baby.” He greeted her with fatherly familiarity as he pressed a warm kiss against her forehead. “Welcome home sweetheart. I missed you.”
Charlie all but forgotten was mortified to find herself witness to such a private moment between the King and Queen. She blushed wildly and occupied her eyes with the floor beneath her feet.
"I see you've met Miss Weatherfare." Owen gestured with his open hand at Charlie who looked up at him sheepishly and bobbed her head that what he said was true. "Good." Owen said curtly. He then glanced at his wife seeking confirmation from her with his gaze as to whether it was a good time to announce that they would assign her to Anita as a personal guard. Owen, personally, wanted to rip that bandage right off in anticipation of protest from Anita.
So, he did, without further permission from his wife. "Because she will be your personal guard from now on. Your mother and I decided that would be necessary given recent events."
Charlie's own eyes widened a touch given that word of her selection had yet to reach her before this very moment.
