[ He’s tucked away in a guest room in Nami’s suite when Hilda’s soft knock breaches the quiet. Maybe it’s too quick, but he’s across the room in seconds and opening the door, that wide, beaming grin decorating his face as he sees her and scoops her into his arms before there’s even time to think. Just seeing her fills his heart with that fond, familiar warmth as he gently showers kisses into her hair, arms tight around her. ]
Hey there, my wonderful Hilda. [ Laughing softly as he says it, he loosens his hold on her shoulders only to catch her face between his hands and gently tilt it up to look at him. The way he smiles at her should say everything— it’s soft and joyful and full of affection— even if there’s a hint of worry in his gaze. Not that it stops him from gently brushing his lips against her in a quick kiss, forehead pressing against hers after. ] You okay? Sounded like you needed your prince’s help.
