Title: A Lost Ambition
Rating: G
Prompt: #37 - Acquired Taste
Summary: It wasn't really what he'd wanted.
Truthfully, it took a long time to get used to it. It took a long time to love working for hours and hours, to love the feel of a sword in his hand or riding his horse. After all, it was not where he wanted to be. It wasn't what he had planned.
But... He'd grown used to it. There were things he liked, even if it wasn't what he wanted. And at least his father was happy, at least Queenscove would benefit.
And there was the Girl. Before she'd come, he almost wanted to go back to the University. She made it a little better-- no, she made it a lot better. Through her, he made friends. She was a friend. And even if he were going to return before she came, he couldn't now, because he had to protect her. Because, without him, she might do something stupid.

Maybe once we'd have seen it during Smackdown!
