The next morning, Nathell awoke,feeling much better than she had the night before. However,Katherine had been at the castle for quite a while,sharing ideas with the king.

"Lady Katherine,I understand that Nathell will not marry me because she has only met me for one day. If I must,I will wait as long as it takes for her to be mine." Matteo said,tugging stressfully on his golden hair. "But tell me. What should I do to get her to warm up to me more?"
"Perhaps a dinner. Tis would be nice,especially to a lady's fancy. Every maiden enjoys a good meal." Katherine replied,smiling. She knew for a fact that it would go wonderfully.

"Splendid! Then set up our little rendezvous, and make sure to dress her up nicely." Matteo said plainly,frolicking in his own mind.
"Very well,my lord. This evening,then?" Katherine asked,scribbling down the information.
"Mmhm~" Matteo kicked his feet gaily.

Later that night, Katherine, Barderoy and the other servants set a beautiful dinner table, including a long,red tablecloth with silver-porcelain plates,platters, and silverware, all lit by a flickering candle.

"Tonight is going to be interesting." Barderoy mumbled to his wife.
"Indeed." Katherine cracked a smile of perversion. Katherine ran to open the door for Nathell, as did Barderoy run to open the door for the king.
Katherine wrapped her arm with Nathell's,and couldn't help herself as she stared at Nathell's well-endowed bosom.
Matteo cleared his throat with annoyance. "Katherine."
"Yes,highness?" Katherine snapped her head away with a nervous smile. Surprisingly, Nathell did not notice at all.

Nathell sat at the right end of the table,and the king came and pushed in her chair for her,then sat himself on the other end.
"Tonight's dinner will be a sausage and meatball pasta served in a thick cream sauce. Dessert will be announced later in the evening."
Nathell smiled at her friend, but Matteo had some uneasiness.
"Katherine...I think I have a suggestion for....dessert. Come here,please."
Katherine smiled and looked to her king. "Yes sir."
She kneeled down,smiling.
"What in heaven's NAME are you DOING??!?!" Matteo harshly whispered,his right eyelid twitching.
"Nothing at all,highness. Just setting the mood." Katherine smirked.
"Setting the mood? This is a dinner,not a pagan fertility festival!" Matteo said furiously.
"I'm very sorry sir. Just leave it to me." Katherine nodded affirmatively.
"Fine...fine....just don't ruin the night quite yet..." Matteo pinched his eyebrows stressfully...
"Very well, my lord."

"Katherine!" called Barderoy from the kitchen.
"Coming,dear!" she walked over and entered the kitchen doors,leaving the couple alone.

There was an awkward silence between Nathell and Matteo.
"So....how goes you?" Matteo asked,trying to fill the void.
"Alright. Not beguiling at all,though." Nathell mumbled,clutching her arm.
"I see."
There it was. That silence again...but the silence was filled by the sounds of the kitchen, the clanging of pots and chattering of the cook and his wife, and the soft viola playing in the corner.
"Well..." the king mumbled,"while we're waiting on our food...Care to dance?"
"S-sure,I guess..."
The viola played a soft waltz, which Matteo and Nathell calmly swayed to.
"1,2,3...1,2,3...." Nathell repeated to herself in her mind.
"So..." Matteo said aloud,"What are your interests,my dear princess?"
Nathell gave a flattered smile and replied, "I really love the arts,especially music, and I'm fascinated by Di Vinci's creations,and Japanese paper folding."
"Amazing." Matteo thought,"Just like me."
The dinner bell rang,and the couple nervously rushed back to their seats,a light blush on their faces...
"Dinner is served,my majesty." servants rushed out of the kitchen,bringing out food and setting it on the table.
Matteo and Nathell smiled and cheered to themselves. They said grace,and soon began to eat. Nathell nibbled on the tips of the bratwurst,and took large bites of the meatballs. Katherine sat in the center of the table,taking her customary place as chaperone.
Nathell and Matteo soon finished their dinner, and Barderoy brought in dessert:
Bananas in a Chocolate ganache.
Nathell pulled her hair out of her face and began licking the ganache off a banana.
Surprised at the indecent act, Matteo choked and coughed out the banana,blood dripping a bit from his nose. However embarrassing it was for the king, Katherine found it incredibly comical.
"Majesty,are you alright?" she asked,trying to hold her laughter.
"I'm fine,though I do believe you are finding my pain amusing..." he replied,giving her a threatening look.
"I'm sorry milord." Katherine said with a smile.

Nathell cluelessly blinked. "What is so amusing,my friends? I don't understand."
"It's nothing!" Matteo quickly replied. "Nothing at all!"
"I see...well..." Nathell continued to eat...until a piece of banana fell into the breast of her corset. "Oh my. Give me a moment to clean up."
As Nathell excused herself to the water room to clean, Matteo had to run to the privy to calm down his manhood.

And Katherine....was rolling on the floor,laughing.
