To Tame an Overtired Prince:

It had been three weeks since ex queen marcy’s defeat. Newtopia was recovering and things were needed to be fixed. Andrias of course since he was the heir took the challenges head on. He spend at least a few weeks in meetings, looking at laws and trying to fix the mistakes of his mentor. it was all fine and dandy....

actually...it was NOT

he barely slept and was always swamped with work. he was always trying to keep everyone happy no matter what. Lady Olivia always told him to rest but he was a stubborn kid and said he was fine. He also was trying to avoid his friends...he felt horrible for what he had put them through...he felt guilt and thought work would help. BUT hes a young teen who has been through trauma and has NOT and refuses to recover or even acknowledge it.  He knew the newtopians and the others were not happy with him and his mentors deception so he vowed to make them all happy even if it cost him his sleep and health. 

So Lady Olivia did what any good lady in waiting would do....he secretly sent a letter to his friends.

 “dear friends of Andrais, andrias despite being a sweet and hard working heir is a being a stubborn brat and is refusing to sleep despite him being up for 3 weeks straight with only 5 hours of sleep with a day depending on the day. He is gonna drop dead if he doesn’t get sleep. so please...HELP”

A few days later Andrias is getting ready for another business day. he had at least 6 meetings and was trying to read the letters they sent to understand the problems. 

meanwhile grime and hop along with the adults travel to Newtopia. Grime is trying to figure out how to do this. they knew andrais was stubborn and they knew he would fight them. grime had mentioned breaking in

“grime NO...we were invited...we are not breaking in”

they get closer to the castle and when he sees a guard grime decide to just sock them. Hop freaks out 

“GRIME!!!!” 

Lady Olivia greets them with a relieved smile “thank you for coming boys. i really need- ugh....lazy sleeping guards....anyway this way, he has NO idea you are here...hes in the another room” they follow as they look around as they do. many of the old tapestries were taken down and replaced. it seemed more calm in here. grime had packed a bag with a smirk...and hop just hoped andy would listen. they goes to the room and adrias is just a mess.

His hair and clothes were unkept. his eyes were sunken and he just looked so dazed and tired. he was going through one of dozens of scrolls around him. he sounded so hoarse and exhausted “so....so this law....this law sounds a bit wrong...hmm...cant cant fix it without...without a....” Lady Olivia lets them go in 

“ANDRAIS!!!!!!!”

he jumps and freaks out as he looks up, he couldn’t believe it. his friends....were here.

“Hopediah...Grime...what...what are you-”

“YOU are in big trouble andy...a little butterfly told us you need to sleeep and you look like crap...you are resting”

Andrais gives lady olivia a look “You didn’t....”

she sighs “i had no choice...have fun” she leaves and his friends smile with a smile that only meant trouble. he gulps “come on guys...lets be reasonable here...i really need to get my work done...cant we just”

grime brings out a rope “its either the easy way...or MY way....you will rest....” andrias gulps and then just runs for it....sleep deprived runs and the other two run after him and the sound of the boys yells can be heard

“I DON’T NEED SLEEP”

“STOP BEING STUBBORN”

“GRIME DONT HURT HIM”

“LET GO...IM FINE...HELP ME HELP”

“GET OVER HERE”

Meanwhile:

Granne and Sasha are talking with Lady oliva and hear the sounds 

“how long you think they will be”

“oh those two will get him to rest...andrias may be strong but grime is stronger and more stubborn”

a few moments later they see grime and hop holding a tied up andrais who is whining. 

“you idiot, we had to come all this way just to drag you into bed....your a dummy...but your our dummy. we were worried”

“hey...i...i am not...i was working....”

“yah...working yourself to death....look we know you wanna be a good ruler but you need rest too. we care about you”

“yah....you cant rule right if your falling over. a healthy ruler is a happy one”

andrias grumbles but can’t do much with his tied up body. he looks to the adults with pleading looks they only smile

“Get some rest boys”

andrias grumbles “...traitors...”

He still complains and squirms as they take him to his room. it was very dark and a bit cold

“sheesh andy...its freezing”

they set him down on the bed under some covers. he squirms and tries to get out

“ as nice as this is...i really need....i have so many...meetings and”

“uh uh...nope...your staying right here”

grime unties him but grabs him before he can leave and hugs him 

“GRIME come on”

“NOPE..we aren’t leaving til you fall asleep....you need to rest...right Hop”

Hop nods “uh huh....sleep is good for you and it helps you think better and you really look like you need it andy...please...rest....”

andrias groans as Hop and Grime hug him in place. andrias whines but he kinda feels warm. he tries to stay awake but his eyes grow heavy

“i...i ...n-need to...this is....hmm...n-nice...i (yawns) hmm” 

Hop hums a song and Andrais soon is fast asleep. grime and hop soon fall asleep too. They were soon cuddling up like little caterpillars in a warm blanket

Sasha and Granne are smirking and taking pictures as they whisper

“they are so adorable....”

“yes they are...these are being used as blackmail later”

“agreed”

they shut the door to let the boys sleep
