Prince Soma/Reader one-shot - Royal Pain

--------------

Most girls have had dreams of being a princess at some point or another in their life. Even you had such fantasies when you were a child growing up, of course, it never came to be and the thought of being one ebbed away as time passed by. But now things were very different as you actually had the chance to become a princess at your fingertips. How was such a thing possible when you were just some plain young woman who had no ties to royalty? Well, it simple really because you had an Indian prince who was head over heels infatuated with you ever since he had first met you at the Phantomhive manor that you frequented very often. It was nice to have friends in high places but you never expected to have a foreign prince fall in love with you from merely first meeting alone. Most girls would jump immediately on the bandwagon of having a handsome Indian prince bending over backwards to get you to be his princess but there was just one its bitty problem…

You weren't that kinda girl.


His name was Soma Asman Kabar or more commonly known as plainly Prince Soma. He was a highly attractive young prince from India with lovely tan skin, long dark purple hair, and bright golden eyes like that of honey. Even you were not stubborn enough to consider the prince not someone nice look at, he was especially eye-catching because he wore fanciful Indian styled garb that only a prince of his region would wear. However, looks could only go so far as the real issue reared it's ugly head. Your relationship with the young prince was complicated at best. Only because you both felt the exact opposite for each other. He was no more than absolutely enthralled with you while as you found him to be the most bloody obnoxious man to walk the entire earth. … Okay, maybe that was a bit extreme, but he just had this way to get under your skin and what was confusing is you had no idea why because all he ever was to you was kind, if not overly so. You hadn't felt that way when you first met him, you actually got along quite well. It was when he started dotting over you when your tolerance of him went out the window. 


Soma was literally willing to do anything to get you to wed him and be his princess and wife. You lost count on how many expensive gifts and marriage proposals you had turned down from the guy. He seemed so painfully determined no matter how many times you tried to brush him off. Almost everyday you would find gifts at your door step that were all from Soma and then there would be his love letters to you that were all saturated in some kind of foreign smelling perfumes and were full of nauseating lovey-dovey words that were apparently from Soma's heart. You were sure Soma had some of his servant Agni's help as the spoiled prince always had the poor man running around doing every little menial task for him. It was one of the things you detested about Soma, he was ignorant, demanding, and most of all a spoiled brat. When he didn't get his way he would have a childish fit until someone decided to give in and give him what he wanted, but you weren't going to give him what he wanted. You would continue to turn the love-struck Indian prince down until he decided to finally give up already and get his butt back to India. 


As of now you were enjoying a splendid cup of steaming hot earl grey tea with Ciel Phantomhive. Neither of you spoke much to each other but you both seemed to have a mutual tolerance and friendship with each other even though you were hardly of aristocratical status as himself. "The tea is very good. Thank you for letting me visit today, Ciel." You thank the young earl who takes a sip of his own tea and nods sternly.


"You're welcome, (Y/n). Your presence here is always welcome." Ciel replied back politely in his usual authority filled voice. You nod back at him and continue to have a pleasant time that was until Sebastian walked in with two familiar faces that you wished would both disappear, especially the one that was staring over at you immediately with wide excited sparkling golden eyes.


"(Y/n)! You're here!" Soma exclaimed to the high heavens as he ran past Agni and sped over to your side. You wanted to take your hot tea and toss its contents all over him. Keeping your self-control in check, you sigh and try to ignore that he's even there to begin with. Instead, you look over to the very tolerable Agni who you felt terrible for having to work under someone like Prince Soma.


 "Hello Agni. Nice to see you." You greet as you smile over at the tall handsome Indian servant. He smiles back with closed eyes and waves with his bandaged hand. 


"Hello to you too, (Y/n). It is a pleasure to see you as well." He responds while Soma is pouting on the side with a desperate look in his eyes to get your attention off of Agni and on to himself.


Soma finally butts in enough to divert your attention as he goes from standing to the side of your armchair to standing right in front of you, blocking your view of Agni. Ciel watched from the side and rolled his visible eye at Soma's obsessive behavior over you. 


"Greetings, mera pyaar! How are you this afternoon!? Are you doing well?! I sure hope you are! I have something for you! I picked it especially for you!" Soma said excitedly while using his usual endearing Hindu pet name that apparently meant, 'my love'. You didn't know this until you finally bothered to ask him as you were tired of him calling you something you didn't understand. 


Soma reached behind his back and pulled out the most beautiful whitish pink lotus flower that had a yellow center. Somehow, you doubted this flower was actually picked by Soma but more rather his little servant that stood at the doorway behind him. You stared up at him blankly and took a sip from your teacup as you stared at the flower. It truly was the most gorgeous flower you had ever seen next to roses but the fact this was a gift from Soma made it worth turning down. If you actually accepted his little gifts he'd never leave you alone, then again he never does, anyways. 


He has the flower extended out for you to take with wide bright happy eyes, like that of an excited puppy dog. You honestly didn't enjoy putting Soma down but it just had to happen. You eye the flower in his hands and turn your head away coldly, "No thanks." You reply and his whole demeanor dulls. Ciel shakes his head and glances over at Sebastian who was watching the whole scenario from the sidelines with Agni. Sebastian smiles with his eyes closed and goes over to Ciel as he waves him over.


"I'm so sick of those two. Find a way to settle their love quarrel because its becoming repulsive to continue to watch drag on like this." He whispered to Sebastian who nodded and smirked as he glances over at heartbroken Soma and you who was obviously irritated. 


"B-but it belongs no where else but in your hands! You must accept it, my princess!" 


"I'm not your bloody princess, Soma! I don't want the flower." You hiss and stand up and look up at him since he was a bit taller than you. He looks like a kicked puppy and pouts.


"Not yet but you will be in time! Please, just accept the flower, (Y/n)!"


You ignore him as you push him away with your hand and storm off past Agni who glanced in your direction with a slight frown. He felt bad for you that you had to put up with Soma and his constant fawning over you. He knew you weren't interested or at least you kept up a pretty solid facade that you hated Soma with a fiery passion.


Soma slumps his shoulders and looks down at the lotus in his hands sadly. Agni walks over and places a comforting hand on the prince's shoulder, "Just let her cool off for now. Maybe, she will accept it later."


Soma frowned and shook his head, "Of course, she will! ... Agni!" Soma looked at his servant with a smile, "I want you to give this to her discreetly. She'll have no other option but to accept it! She will find to love it! As it is the only thing that could ever at all come close to match her beauty." Soma sighed dreamily and handed over the lotus to Agni who accepted it obediently.

Ciel rolled his eye again and look annoyed that Soma was even in his manor to begin with. Sebastian watched as Agni left with the flower to go find you, wherever you had run off too. "Honestly, don't you get that she is not interested?" Ciel finally spoke up once Agni was out of the room and it was just him, Sebastian, and Soma himself. The prince turned to look at Ciel who was lightly glaring him. 


Soma looked offended by what Ciel was saying as he crossed his arms stubbornly and shook his head, "(Y/n) will be my princess. She's just… unsure of herself right now but she'll accept soon enough!" Soma exclaimed with a firm confident nod in Ciel's direction. 


Ciel wanted to scoff at Soma's ever waging persistence, obviously it was going to take someone like Sebastian to end this quarrel. Ciel could care less if you and Soma ended up together or if Soma landed himself back in India alone with no princess. Ciel just wanted peace and quiet and for Soma to stop visiting so much since you came over as much as you did. Ciel didn't mind you visiting as you were pleasant company but Soma could be a real nuisance to deal with much of the time. "I suggest you find a different princess." Ciel murmured dully, it was a poor attempt at changing his mind. He didn't even know why he was wasting his breath to begin with. Soma was obvious given everything he ever wanted on a silver platter and to have this out of his reach, he was going to do everything to get it. 


"There is no other princess like my dear beautiful (Y/n). She is the only one my heart belongs too! … I just hope Agni is able to give her the flower…" Soma murmured in thought before walking off himself to see if he could find you or Agni from his impatience. Ciel rubbed his temples and glared over at Sebastian at his side. 


"Do something before I personally ask you to throw them all out permanently!" Ciel ordered in aggravation to Sebastian who bowed with his hand over his chest.


"Of course, Young Master. It shall be done." Sebastian replied calmly and soon went strolling off to also go find you. Ciel was then left alone in the tea room by himself as he sat there grumbling grouchily over the whole frustrating situation to himself. 


--------------


You were hiding in the Phantomhive manor in Meyrin's room. She was sitting on the side of the bed staring at you behind her giant circular glasses that she wore. "Why aren't you jumping on this, (Y/n)? Wouldn't ya want to be a princess!?" She asks in confusion. You sit on her bed with her and cross your arms irritably. 


"Being a princess is not all it's cracked up to being, I'm sure... I'm not marrying someone as idiotic as Soma just to be a princess. Plus, I live in London, I'm not moving away to some foreign country I've never been too. Soma just needs to lay off and find someone else whose willing. I'm sure they're plenty of girls dying to be an Indian princess." You reply while closing your eyes as you speak. Meyrin scratches her head, obviously still not quite understanding why you're not excited about the possibility of being a princess of India. 


"Prince Soma is a real nice guy though even if he's a bit spoiled! The things he says to you makes me even blush! You should give him a chance, (Y/n)! He really likes you a lot. Well, obviously enough to want you to marry him!"


"That's all I am to Soma. A toy he wants that he will whine about until he gets, but I'm not going to give in. I don't have to marry him if I don't want too. That spoiled brat just needs to learn he can't have everything he wants in life. Probably is a lesson he's never learned before." You respond while you open your eyes back open. 


Meyrin frowns sadly but nods, "If that's how you feel…" 


You were about to reply but paused when you heard the door knocked on. You gasp and rush off of Meyrin's bed and over to her wardrobe. Opening it up, you stuff yourself inside and hide. Meyrin shakes her head (and has an anime sweat-drop) as she glanced at your hiding place and then over at her door. "Come on in!" She hollered for whoever was at the door to come inside. 


The door creaked open and you were worried it might be Soma looking for you but instead it was Agni. "Hello there, Miss. Meyrin. I was wondering if (Y/n) happened to be around?" He asked her and she glanced nervously at her wardrobe before looking back at him and shaking her head. 


"Nope! Not uh defiantly not here! I mean she was here but… uh not anymore!" She panicked and began blabbering out whatever she could think of right at that moment. You rolled your eyes from inside the wardrobe and tried peering out of the cracks to see Meyrin and Agni. 


"Oh, well alright then. If you do see her again, please give her this. It is of the most importance she receives it." Agni said as he handed over the lotus flower over to the blushing red-head that just about blushed at about anything. 


"O-o-oh! Of c-course! Is this from Prince Soma?"


Agni nodded with a light strained smile, "Yes, it is. (Y/n) had turned it away and now the Prince is requesting of her to take it, anyways. I just wish (Y/n) would accept Soma's affections…" Agni trailed off and Meyrin nodded with her own strained smile.


"It might just happen! Who knows! I'll be sure to give this to her if I see her." Meyrin told Agni who nodded and bowed to Meyrin. 


"Thank you. I appreciate it. I'll be going then." Agni said his farewell before finally walking off back down the hallway, this time to find Soma, where ever the ditzy prince was probably lost at in the large manor. 


You burst out of the wardrobe and glare Meyrin, not as much towards her but the lotus in her hands. "Really!? Soma asks his stupid butler to give it to me instead? If I didn't accept it then I'm defiantly not accepting it now!" You grouch and start angrily pacing back and forth through the bedroom. Meyrin bites the bottom of her lip as she watches you attempt to make a hole in the ground from walking back and forth so many times. 


"Please, just take the flower, (Y/n). It's really pretty! I've never seen such a flower in my life. I think I heard it is a traditional flower in India!"


"I don't care what it is! I don't care if he gave me the queen's royal jewels! I'm not marrying him! Nor am I taking his damn gifts!" You shout and without another word, you shove the lotus flower away from you and storm out of Meyrin's room to find a new hiding place. Maybe, you should just leave the Phantomhive manor all together but then Soma would find you at your house, because of course the little creep just had to know where you lived. You were fuming down the hallways and decide to hide in a room with nobody inside. You find a music room and enter inside and look around at all the different musical instruments that Ciel owned. "Finally peace and quiet. Now if only I had brought my tea with me." You said aloud to yourself and went over to sit down at the black sleek grand piano that was sitting in the room by a large window. You sighed in content and looked down at the keys, now it was tempting to play a song but if you made noise you would surely attract attention. Sighing you bring your hands to your face and brood until you feel someone sit down next to you too much of your surprise. 


You bring your hands down and shot your (e/c) eyes to look over at the person next to you and were relieved to see it was just Sebastian. Still it was a bit odd to see him with Ciel not around. Why was he here? "Hello, madame. Having a troublesome time, I see?" He said coolly as his red wine colored eyes looked at you. You always felt like prey under Sebastian's gaze, no matter if he was smiling 'innocently' or not. Something about him always put you on edge and you had no idea why. Trying to ignore your weird feelings about him, you sigh heavily and were tempted to smash your forehead into the piano's keys. 


"You have no idea, Sebastian. Soma won't leave me alone. He keeps harassing me." 


Sebastian nods his head in understanding and smiles, "His insistent prying must get tiresome after so many attempts."


You fully looked at him and nodded and were thankfully he was not going to side with Soma on this. Usually, when you talked to people they would side with Soma because Soma was a prince and who wouldn't want to be a princess? "Yes, it really does. He just doesn't get that I don't love him. I don't want to get married to him."


Sebastian hummed and placed his fingers onto the piano gently, you glanced at him curiously as it looked like he was about to play. "I don't believe that is true. Some part of you wants to give in but you don't want too because you don't want to give him what he wants. You run away from him but I can see through your facade." He says as he began playing a soft gentle tune that was absolutely beautiful. You think hard about what he said and were going to protest but something inside your heart became heavy. Did you actually have any positive feelings for Prince Soma? You and him both got along so well before he became infatuated with you. Then all of a sudden you started running away from his affections. Was there truly a part of you that wanted to be with Soma but just was too stubborn to give in? You stare sadly at the piano keys as you thought. Sebastian was focused on playing but his eyes ever so often glanced at your silent person. When he finished his song, he turned to fully look at you again. "There is nothing wrong with giving the young prince a chance. You might find yourself truly happy with the outcome. If it doesn't work out then who is to say you must give in to his whim? He has to go back to India at some point and then he will truly be away from your presence. Just think about it, (Y/n)." Sebastian said and then stood up from the piano's bench. He walked over to the exit and turned ever so slightly to gaze at you one last time, which you returned with a sad frown.


"Do what seems right but don't keep running away from your troubles, because they will never go away unless you confront them." Sebastian told you before smirking at you and then leaving the room within seconds. You sat there staring at where Sebastian had walked off too in pondering. His words were painfully true. You never gave Soma a chance because you were so busy running away from him. Would giving him a chance truly make you happy in the end or would it just be another one of Soma's many orders followed? Placing your hands on the keys, you began to play a somber melody on the piano that rang throughout the music room. You kept playing and focusing on your fingers playing and were unaware of another presence that had entered inside the room but this time it was not Agni or Sebastian but rather the one stirring the pot of all this trouble. 


"(Y/n)?" Soma spoke up over your piano playing. Your fingers twitched and you accidentally played the wrong keys with your fingers smashing into them roughly. You stop what your doing and glare down at the keys as he walks closer towards you. "I was wondering where you went off too. You music is absolutely breath-taking. Can you play me another song?" He as always comes across as good-naturedly as possible as he leans his hand up against the piano and looks down at you hopefully. Sebastian's words echoed off in your mind like a repeated mantra. You sigh and spare your gaze over to the young prince who was smiling at you softly. "Would you please, mera pyaar?" 


You wanted to tell him to go away or stop calling you that but you resisted as you placed your fingers back onto the piano's white and black keys. Soma watches you curiously as you play another song that was both hauntingly melancholy and exquisite to the ear. Soma grinned as you played so well, he wanted to serenade you with his own musical talents that he possessed with a pungi. You were no snake, certainly not, but he hoped he could charm you anyways if he played well enough. Then just maybe, you'd agree to be his princess. 


You kept your eyes on the keys as you played and tried to pretend Soma wasn't there but it was rather hard with him continuously throughout the song complimenting you and sometimes even clapping. You sigh and stop at the end of the song and look over at Soma through your (e/c) eyes that were narrow but not cruel just suspicious of his intentions. "(Y/n), my beautiful princess. You play like an angel! Please, I must show you my own talent with an instrument that I am sure you will be fascinated by! AGNI!" Soma called out for Agni which made you roll your eyes as you sat at the piano bench and watched him. Prince Soma was in mere seconds impatient as he called out Agni's name again but right as he did Agni walked inside with a questionable look. 


"Prince Soma. Is there something wrong?" 


"Yes! Where is my pungi? I need it now." He tells Agni who looks at him and then over at you who was raising an eyebrow at the two. What in the world was a pungi? Was that the instrument Soma is talking about? Must be some kind of strange instrument from India that you never heard of before. 


"What's a pungi?" You finally question and Soma quickly glances over at you and then smiles that you were actually speaking to him. He ignores Agni completely who was going to reply to Soma but was snubbed when you caught Soma's full fledged attention. Agni sighs wearily and leaves the room to go fetch Soma's pungi before he threw a fit. "A pungi is an instrument in my country! It is sorta like a flute but much larger and it is meant for charming snakes!"


"Charming snakes? And you're going to play it for me? What are you implying?" You assert skeptically. 


He gasps and shakes his head very quickly."Oh no, that is not what I mean at all! I just wanted to show you it since you've never heard it before! It has a unique sound! … Now where is Agni?" Soma tapped his foot impatiently as he waited for Agni's return. The two of you sat there for about a minute until Agni came back with the weird looking wind instrument that had a long staff and a gourd like appearance. "Ah, there you are and you have my pungi!" Soma stepped over and snatched the instrument from Agni's hands and went over to sit on the ground. Soma gestured you to sit down in front of him which you did with some hesitation. Agni stood off to the side and was grateful that it seemed like you two were actually interacting without you yelling in Soma's face to get away from you. "They're are many more instruments of India like the sitar, veena, tabla, and shenai! But I can show you those another time. I wish now I had a snake I could charm for you but this will just have to do. I am very good at playing so I hope you enjoy, my princess!" Soma smiled sweetly at you which actually made your heart quicken in pace and your face flush red involuntarily. You try to mask it but it was obviously there. Soma brought the mouth piece of the red painted pungi up to his mouth and you expected it to sound like a dying cat. Instead, it made the most exotic sound in a melody that was simply that of an Indian song that you didn't know. You watched with surprise with how well Soma was playing this pungi that sounded not exactly pretty to the ear but just unique. You actually wished there was a snake for him to charm as you think that would be a fascinating thing to experience. Agni smiles brightly as he sees you look so entranced by the song Soma was playing while at the same time keeping his golden eyes on you lovingly. You remained quiet throughout the pungi's song until he comes to an end and sets the pungi down onto his lap. "How was that?" He asked eagerly wanting to hear what you thought.


You blinked a few times and shook your head, "It was strange… I never heard anything like it. I… I liked it though. Does it really charm snakes?" You question, now fully curious to this foreign knowledge you were gaining from Soma.


Soma nods his head and flashes you a charming white smile, "Yes, it does.. well sort of…" He trails off and scratches the back of his head sheepishly. "It it supposed to hypnotize the snake into appearing to be in a trance, but to be honest it's actually not really the music that enchants them. They can't hear music like we can, but they sway along with the pungi because they respond to the movement of the pungi when played as a threat. Interesting is it not?" 


"Wow, that's very fascinating." You said genuinely interesting in what Soma was saying for once. It was actually back like the times before he was chasing you around to be his princess. He was just treating you like a normal person and not an obsession. Though you had a feeling he'd go right back to his dotting over you when this little music lesson was over. Soma was smiling ear to ear, obviously thrilled to be conversing with you and also teaching you about his culture that he wanted you to be part of. 


"Isn't it!? I'm overjoyed you like it! Some time I will show you the other instruments of my country!" Standing up from his spot, he kept his red pungi in one hand while he extended the other one out to you. You looked up at his hand that he had for you to take. You shyly extend out your own hand and take his which he pulls you right on up and close towards him. The both of you end of blushing and looking bashful from the contact.


"Thank you… Soma…" You finally say quietly but it was enough for him to hear you. Soma feels shivers go through him as he hears you thank him in a positive light. This seemed to be going well and just when he thought you would never open up to him, especially today. 


"You're welcome, (Y/n). I will play for you anytime, especially when you are my princess! We will have all the time in the world!" He says excitedly goes back to considering you his future bride to be. You mentally sigh but for some reason you weren't as annoyed by it as before.


"Yeah…" You mummer unsurely and glance over at Agni who gives you a thumbs up. You shudder and glance back at Soma's smiling eyes, he literally looked like he was about to burst with joy. You were amazed you could make a single person so happy by just being with them. 


"Have you received my flower to you?" Soma asks about the lotus flower again that Agni had dropped off to Meyrin. You frown and shake your head.


"I said I don't- …" You pause and Sebastian's words come back to your mind. Give him a chance, you might just be happy with the results. You couldn't let yourself believe Soma was a bad person because he wasn't. You just made him out to be this terrible terror that tormented you but in reality he's been nothing but kind and gentle with you, demanding and selfish, but still sweet in his own little way. Mentally taking a deep breath, you continue to speak but change your tone with him, "I don't have it." 


Soma frowned and turned to look at Agni with a 'Why doesn't she have it look?'. Agni briskly replies to his prince as he bows his head to him. "I apologize I had given it to Meyrin because she had seen (Y/n) before I. I thought she could have given it to her."


"Get her then! I want to gift, mera pyaar with her lotus." Soma ordered a bit snappishly to Agni who nodded his head obediently.


"Of course, Prince Soma." He replied before taking his leave to find Meyrin to take the flower back. Soma sighs and shakes his head as he turns to you, while acting like he had just made a strenuous order to Angi that had tired him out. 


"I'm so sorry! Agni will retrieve it soon enough. I really want you to have it, (Y/n)."


You half frown and put a hand to your hip as you look at him disbelievingly, "You didn't actually pick it did you?"


Soma looks surprised at this and responds as he nods his head in defense, "Yes, I did! I swear! I picked the most beautiful one I could find because it was the only thing I could think of that could ever represent your beauty, as that is what a lotus flower represents is beauty! I know it doesn't stand up even close to how beautiful you truly are… but… I was hoping it might be a step in the right direction…. After all, you refused all my other gifts…" Soma says a bit dejectedly as he thinks back on all the trinkets that were either really expensive or personal to Soma that he tried present to you. You felt an unfamiliar feeling of guilt wash over you as he looks so crestfallen. 


You take a step near him and frown sadly, "Why?" It was the only thing you could think of as you stare at him intently. 


"Wh-what?" 


"Why do you go through so much trouble for me if all I do is reject you every time?" You question him with a serious look on your face. Soma doesn't look at all startled by the question but rather he smiles in that charming way that he does.


"Because I know you're the one… I've been met with many women who want to be my princess but none of them compare at all to you. I simply just love you, (Y/n)."


"But we honestly haven't known each other that long! Only for about half a year! How can you make such a life-changing decision so suddenly? How can you be positive I'm the right princess for you? Certainly, there has to be prettier more capable girls than me. Soma I'm telling you I'm not the one you think I am. I'm not good enough." You confess and then look down with a troubled expression. Soma gawks at you and objects immediately as he reaches out and grabs onto your shoulders to force you to look at him.


"I follow my heart, dear (Y/n). I've never been in love before. I cannot explain it but I just know you are supposed to by my princess. You are certainly good enough! You're better off than good enough! You are my perfect princess and I hope somehow you can see this. I don't like begging but please, (Y/n)! Give me a chance, mera pyaar." Soma shook your shoulders out of desperation. You could see the longing in his eyes that looked back at your own (e/c) eyes so full of hope. You were about to respond until Agni walked back in with the lotus flower in his hand.


"I have retrieved the flower, my prince." Agni said as he extended out the flower over to Soma who let go of you to take the flower. Soma nodded to Agni in thanks before looking back at you and taking a step closer. 


"Please accept this gift to you. The lotus flower is the national flower of India. It is a flower set apart with such beauty that out shines any other flower. I feel this way about you." Soma didn't wait for you to accept the white and pink flower as he reached out and brushed some of your (h/l) (h/c) hair out of the way and placed the lotus in it's place in your hair. You watch his movement closely as he sets the flower in your hair delicately before stepping back and examining you. "(Y/n)… You are like the goddess Lakshmi! The embodiment of beauty!"


You couldn't help but blush from his compliment, you never were referred to as a goddess before. Agni was smiling in the background as he knew you were actually falling for this flattery for once. "Thank you, Soma…" 


Soma grinned ear to ear and shook his head confidently, "Not a problem! You deserve it!"


"No, I really don't…" You mummer solemnly and Soma looks confused by this.


"Of course you do, why wouldn't you?" Soma exclaimed as if that was the most ridiculous thing he had ever heard. You frown hard and glance at Agni who gets the idea that you want some privacy with the young prince. He smiles and waves before taking his leave, leaving just you and Soma in the music room together again.


"(Y/n), whatever is wrong?" Soma asks as he briefly notices Agni walked out of the room to leave you two alone. You have your head lowered in shame and all the feelings of remorse for all your actions against Soma had suddenly fled into your body. You gulp and begin pacing towards the piano to run your fingers along the keys softly enough to not make a noise from them. 


"I've been nothing but unfairly callous towards you when you have only ever been kind to me. I don't deserve any of this. Soma, I just really want to say that I'm…" You trailed off and gazed away from the piano and back at his golden eyes that were solely on you. "I'm sorry…" 


Soma took not time to stroll over to you and grab onto your hand that had been on the piano's keys. He took your hand and placed a soft gentle kiss on your knuckles, "Mera pyaar, you don't have to apologize to me. Others have called me ignorant but I know for a fact your heart is in the right place. (Y/n) I will show you everything you need to know about being my princess! You will live a prosperous happy life and I will always love you! All I want is for you to at least consider being my princess. I promise I will do everything in my power to assure your happiness." Prince Soma said genuinely as he kept holding your hand that he had kissed as he stared into your eyes with a warm smile on his lips.


"Just one chance…" You mummer painfully quiet while Sebastian's words once again reverberated inside your mind over and over again. 


"What did you say, my dear?"


"Just one chance… I'm giving you a chance." You repeat and before you could comprehend what happened. Soma lunged forward and brought you into a tight embrace with a face full of bliss. 


"You do mean it, (Y/n)? Oh, I swear to you I will not break your trust! I cannot wait to show you all the things you can do as my princess! This calls for a grand celebration!" He was literally squealing with delight and going a little over board with it but its to be expected with someone like Soma. But he goes ever further when he leans in and presses a kiss to your lips. You almost sputter and part of you wanted to slap him while the other part of you was reveling in something so new and foreign to you and not just because he was foreign himself. He seemed to notice what he was doing and he quickly brought his head back in embarrassment, "Ah! I'm so sorry! Please, don't consider my chance already broken for that!" 


You place your hands on your lips in shock and stare bewildered at him by what he had done. He kissed you! You never thought Soma would ever have the guts to actually go that far! And yet when your lips were together it felt right, just like it should be. Soma was obviously panicking at the thought of already messing up his promised word to you but you shushed him which made him look wide eyed at you. You smiled at him and leaned in and placed your lips back onto his own. He was stunned to say the least but he was absolutely dancing with joy on the inside that his princess was kissing him on her own initiative! The prince wrapped his arms around you and shocked you when he dipped you in the kiss and then grinned down at you. "I saw that done in a play before!"


"Soma…" You muttered and can't help but laugh at how weird he was sometimes. Pulling you back up he kissed your lips again and sighed in contentment, "(Y/n)… mai tumasē pyāra karatā hūm̐"


You quirked an eyebrow at his use of his language you didn't know. You never heard him say that before. "What does that mean?" You question the violet haired prince who smiles lovingly back at you.


"It means 'I love you'." He told you with a dark blush tinting his cheeks. Your own cheeks became a rosy red as he said those three strongly endearing words to you. 


"You love me?" You repeated back disbelievingly. Sure, he called you 'his love' but he never actually told you that he actually loved you. Your heart was pattering inside your chest at an increased rate. 


He nodded and took your hand and kissed your knuckles gently, "I do. I do so very much." Soma replied, there was something about the way he said those words that sounded so genuine in your mind. Those feelings you hid away and kept trying to ignore for the Indian prince were rising to the surface. You wanted to stay stubborn and turn him away but the other true side of you was becoming to overwhelming to ignore. "(Y/n)… Will you be my princess?"


You stared at him wordlessly as he looked into your eyes and awaited your answer anxiously. It was almost like something took over your body when you opened your mouth and the words came fumbling out, "I will…"


Soma's golden eyes brighten with excitement as he almost looked like he was going to combust in sheer happiness. "You mean it!? Of course, you do! AGNI!" Soma shouted and within seconds he came walking in with a curious look towards the prince. 


"Yes-" Soma cut him off as he grabbed onto your hand and told Agni with exhilaration, 


"(Y/n), agreed to be my princess! I want you to tell everyone of this wonderful news! I also want there to be a party set up just for my sweet (Y/n)! Oh, I'm so happy right now! I couldn't be happier!" Soma was talking so fast and looking back and forth between Agni and you. You were still shocked by what you agreed to but for some reason you weren't regretting it like you thought you would.


Agni even looked baffled that you had actually agreed to be Soma's princess. Agni smiled warmly towards the both of you and nodded with a bow. "Certainly it will be done and congratulations to the both of you."


Soma grinned and made a firm nod before suddenly latching onto you with a tight bone-crushing hug. "You are going to be so happy, (Y/n)! I promise everything will be perfect for the two of us!"


"S-S-Soma!" You choked as he was crushing you with a hug while also snuggling his face into your chest too much of your embarrassment. 

"Oh! Sorry, (Y/n)!" He said letting go and chuckling nervously. You sighed and looked away from him blushing deeply.

 This was going to take getting used too...

--------------


For the rest of the day, Soma was literally attached at the hip. He always was by your side and talking enthusiastically about you and your future with him together. Ciel was informed that a celebration party was going to take place in his own manor by Prince Soma. Ciel was less than thrilled about Soma calling the shots in his own household but if it meant Soma might actually getting the chance to leave with you alongside him, he didn't protest as much as he was wanting too. Sebastian and Agni working both together in unison were able to make up a party for you and Soma that was near perfection. The party was decorated in an Indian style and you were dressed down in a beautiful handmade (color) sari that Agni had helped you dress into since it was so foreign to you. 


"(Y/n), you look exquisite. Prince Soma will be very pleased once he sees you." Agni said with a smile as you were looking through a tall oval standing mirror that's reflection was showing yourself off with such traditional Indian elegance. 


You blink a few times and turn yourself around in diffract angles to examine yourself, "This dress is so… beautiful." You say and turn your (e/c) eyes to look at Angi. He nodded his head in agreement before walking over behind you so that you could see both him and you in the mirror together. 


"You are almost ready you just need one more thing…" He said before taking out something from a satchel he had with him. You stare at the mirror back at him in curiosity. "Close your eyes." He asks you politely. You raise an eyebrow but do as he says and close your eyes. The moment you did, you feel something being laid on your head and then adjusted by Agni. "Open." He says after a few moments. You do and your eyes immediately go wide in shock as you see lying in your hair the most ornate diamond tiara with real sparking multicolored jewels encrusted into it. You bring a hand up to your red painted lips and keep staring in bewilderment at the sight of yourself with the tiara. Agni smiled more and bowed to you with his hand over his chest, "Now you look like a true princess." You blush and are taken out of your thoughts when Agni goes over and opens the door for you to go through, "Please, Prince Soma is ever so eager to see you."


"T-this is… This is too much! I-I can't!-" Agni closed his eyes as he smiled and shook his head at your words.


"You can. You are a princess now, after all." He said before reopening his eyes and extending his arm out for you to take. You gulp and feel nervous and elated all at the same time as you step over and take Agni's arm. He walks you out of the spare bedroom you were changing in and begins taking you to the Phantomhive ballroom where most of the party was taking place. Walking through the hallways felt like slow-motion, you couldn't believe this was happening. You were still shocked you even agreed to be his princess and you still didn't understand why you were okay with it now. Maybe, it was Sebastian's words that had changed your mind. He opened your eyes to the good that was in Soma and not all his petty negatives that were all typically still done out of good-nature. 


Once you were finally stepping into the ballroom, the blasting tangy scent of curry was in the air and Indian music was playing loudly throughout the large room. The room was also decorated with everything that was of India's likeness. You felt like you already were in India. Even Sebastian who you saw off in the corner was dressed in traditional fancy Indian fashion. Those penetrating red eyes of his landed on you and a mischievous smirk pulled up on his lips as he saw you arm in arm with Agni and wearing the not just the sari but the tiara in your hair. Sebastian had as always successfully fulfilled his young master's orders, after all, he was one hell of a butler.

You felt nervous and the staring of Sebastian only made it worse as he always made you feel paranoid. You didn't even notice Agni releasing his arm from yours as Prince Soma turns away from ordering around the four Phantomhive servants with ridiculously petty commands that were typically meant for Agni. Soma was frowning and had his hands on his hips as he glared Bard for not making the curry spicy enough. "You will ruin my whole party if you don't fix this! I will not tolerate curry that is not spicy enough! Everything needs to be perfect!" Soma fumed and sighed heavily as he crossed his arms and turned away from Bard childishly. Bard rubbed the back of his head and chewed anxiously on his toothpick in his mouth.


"I'll fix it in no time!" Bard replied and took the spice lacking curry dishes into his hands.


"You better! Now where is Agni? He's taking forev… er-" Soma cut himself off as his eyes scanned the room and fell right on you. His golden eyes widen and his heart began to pick up inside his chest at a rapid pace. He put down his arms down from pouting and looked at you like a snake that had been entranced. His mouth opened to speak but he couldn't find the words from your lovely presence alone. You stood there awkwardly in the middle of the room and Soma almost forgot how to walk as he very gradually made his way towards you. "Oh my… (Y/n), you truly are a goddess of beauty. You look so beautiful!" Soma almost looked like he wanted to cry from how in awe he was by you. You rubbed your arm from your nerves and smiled nervously at him. 


"Its not too much?" You ask quietly and he quickly shakes his head and then grabs onto your hands. 


"No, not at all! (Y/n), mera pyaar! You are perfect!"   


You blush at his enthusiastic words that were spoken with such happiness. It was amazing how much happiness you could bring to Soma from just presence alone. 


Ciel watched dully next to Sebastian as Soma takes you to show you around the ballroom to enjoy the party that was now taking place now that you were here. Ciel glanced at Sebastian who looked back at him with a small smirk. "You should've just gotten rid of them. I didn't think you played matchmaker." Ciel accused his demon butler who only kept smirking. He looked over to you and Soma who were trying out some dishes of curry that Bard hadn't messed up. 


"It was much simpler this way and will ultimately be preferable in the future. If Soma is entertained by his princess he won't come to you looking for entertainment."


Ciel's eye twitched at the thought of Soma whining more about not having you as his princess and then sighed. "Fine. I see your point." Ciel grumbled, "Now let's just get this dreadful party over with. I didn't even want this." Ciel complained and crossed his arms irritably.


"It will be over soon enough, young master. Just let them have their time." Sebastian replied while watching as Soma had his arms wrapped around your waist and was slow dancing with you to a romantic Indian song that was played on the sitar. You laid your head up against Soma's chest and smiled softly to yourself as you heard the sound of his pacing heart. 


"I love you, my princess."


You kept your head in place as you both swayed to the lovely slow pace of the song, "I love you too, my royal pain."


Soma smiled brightly for a moment but then looked befuddled. You turn your head to look up at him with a faint smirk. He blushes deeply as he looks into your eyes. "That's not very endearing, (Y/n)!" He pouted his bottom lip and you chuckled.


"Not unless you make it so." You teased and then laid a gentle kiss onto his lips. He seemed to quickly get over you calling him a 'royal pain' as he smiled again and hugged you against him. 


….


"You're not actually going to keep calling me that are you?" Soma asked worriedly after a couple moments of silence.


You look at him like he's stupid and roll your eyes, "Just shut up and dance with me, my prince."


He quickly shut up and the two of you continued to dance and enjoy the whole rest of the India assorted party and all it had in store for the both of you. 

Prince Soma might have been a royal pain in the arse, but he was your royal pain and that much you didn't quite mind. 



Purple Square Bullet I sure hope you enjoyed this! I feel iffy about it but I usually do after all my stories. Prince Soma just had to have a one-shot done for him that was written by me. I just really love Soma. He's such a great character! Fangirl Emote
