**Ruki's POV**
So here we all sit, waiting for the summons from..someone.
Or something.
I'm still not sure what they're gonna do.
Or how they're gonna handle these 'interviews'.
Miyavi only warned me that it'd be some time today.
I was trying to relax.
I know the others are gonna do fine.
There's no way the powers-that-be can find anything wrong with Nao's plan.
But I'm still not sure what they'll say about me and Reita.
And that's why I feel like pacing.
Suddenly the silence is shattered.
"Is that..?" Hiroto squeaks, pointing.
I look.
"Yep," I answer.
There's a strange shape-less mass hovering in the middle of the room.
"Miyavi," it croaks "Have they spoken about anything?"
"Nothing pertaining to your questions, sir," he answers.
"Very well, we wish to speak with Ruki first. Everyone else, wait outside."
Crap.
I take a deep breath as the others file out, Miyavi last.
Throwing me a 'thumbs-up'.
"So. We hear you're charge isn't getting this prince? Tell us."
I start explaining about how from the start Hiroto seemed interested in Nao.
And how Reita and I seemed to hit it off.
That didn't make them happy.
But they stopped, changing colors a few times after I mentioned us all living at the palace.
"That's...an interesting idea," they finally say.
"Well, I can't take credit for it. It was Nao's idea. He like Hiroto, too, I think. And they look so adorable together."
"That's all. You may leave. Send in your charge."
~~
**Hiroto's POV**
Ruki walks out, looking hopeful.
"It seems your next Pon. Don't worry. They won't hurt you. Just be honest, K?"
I nod, as I walk thru the door.
"Come closer," the fog orders.
I step towards it.
"I think Nao's idea is the perfect solution," I start, not giving it a chance to speak.
"And Ruki's great. I think he deserves the prince."
"Really?" it says as I take a breath.
"Yeah. Why can't he have a happy ending, too? It's not fair. Always having to look out for someone else. What about him?"
And I realize I've gotten even closer to it.
Which surprises me almost as much as it seems to have surprised them.
"You like your guardian?"
"Yeah. I do."
"What about the prince's guard?"
I feel the blush coloring my cheeks.
"Hmmm. Very interesting. You may go. Send in the prince."
~~
**back to Ruki**
I stand next to Hiroto, waiting for them to finish.
He's been smiling ever since he walked thru the door.
I find that very encouraging.
Reita looks more subdued.
Finally, Nao steps thru the door.
"They want to talk to you two," he says pointing at me and Miyavi.
Hiroto actually squeezes my hand before I get a chance to walk away.
"Everything's gonna be fine. You'll see."
As me and Miyavi walk thru the door, I notice the fog-stuff's changed.
It's looking more human.
"It seems you were correct," it rasps "The boy likes the guard. And the prince... Well, he seems taken with you as well."
And finally, I feel like smiling.
"So, what does it mean?"
"It means that Ruki stays with Hiroto. Ensuring his happily-ever-after. And possibly getting one of his own. You, on the other hand," it says to Miyavi "Are free of this assignment. For now. We will expect you to make occasional spot-checks. Seeing that Hiroto's doing well."
After the fog fades, Miyavi goes to the door.
Throwing it open for the others to enter.
I wait until they're all gathered around before letting out a whoop.
"It worked. You," I say, pointing at Nao "are a freaking genious."
"What about you?" Hiroto asks looking at me.
"I stay with you."
"Meaning we all live here," Reita clarifies.
"Yep!" I say, turning to him "As long as you'll let us."
"How's 'forever' sound?"
Looking at everyones' smiling faces, I'm thinking we all like the way that sounds.

A/N: So..there's my first fairytale over...but don't expect that to be the last you see of these guys.
They will show up again......somewhere....
