2012-02-25 [HeAVenShallBuRN]: "Just...a little upset is all princess...I...didn't expect all this to happen this morning, but do not worry yourself m'lady, things will work themselvse out." he'd reassure her.

2012-02-25 [Saffron]: He must have been talking about Samantha right?..."Don't worry, I am sure she will understand. Shall I talk to her for you?"...she asked gently her voice filled with concern.

2012-02-25 [HeAVenShallBuRN]: Indeed he was. "No no...it's quite alright princess." 'William' said. "Im' quite sure we can work things out ourselves, thank you for yoru concern."

2012-02-25 [Saffron]: Alex nodded and turned maneater around..."We better be getting back."...she said softly and trotted ahead giving him time to think if that is what he wished.

2012-02-25 [HeAVenShallBuRN]: 'William' nodded and did the same with Bertha. Tortting back. Takinga ddep breath, he'd have to think...oh there was a reason he wasn't going to have things work out, so...he could get close to the princess on a more...personal leve.

2012-02-25 [Saffron]: Upon arriving back at the stables, Alex would show William how to groom Bertha and once the two horses were happily munching on oats Alex would move off in silence to her room still leaving William his chance to think.

2012-02-25 [HeAVenShallBuRN]: 'William' leaned against a post and thought for a moment, not even bothered by the fact he was alone in the stables...with maneater in there! was he crazy?!? Maybe just a little. Taking a deep breath, he made plans...on how to get the princess alone...well in a situation of course :P

2012-02-25 [Saffron]: Alex was surprised to see William wasn't on her heels, but that was fine with her. A moment alone was reason to breath and relax but she didn't diverge from her course and instead went to her room where she had lunch/dinner brought for herself. Curled up in a corner on large fluffy cushions, she would read a book and nibble at her meal.

2012-02-25 [HeAVenShallBuRN]: 'William' was back in her room after she finished her dinner, leaning against the wall, he wan'st off duty yet...but after he finished duty, he planned on going to talk to Samantha, to show Alex he was putting some effort into it. "What are you reading, princess?" he'd ask, showing some intrerest. "I read a neat book last week, some poems by Edger Alen Poe."

2012-02-25 [Saffron]: Alex looked at her book as if she didn't know...."I'm not really sure. The title is in a language I do not know, but it is a beautiful story about love."...she smiled and showed him the cover which actually was the title 'United Hearts' in gaelic.

2012-02-25 [HeAVenShallBuRN]: 'William' blinked. He could read it quite well. "And the book is in...english?" he'd ask questioning. Wow...he'd never seen a book in ireland with a gaelic name and english writing...which confused the holy hell out of him.

2012-02-25 [Saffron]: Alex nodded..."I had it translated for me because I over heard a servant speaking about it. The name was never translated though."...she shrugged her shoulders.

2012-02-25 [HeAVenShallBuRN]: "An...Irish servant?" he'd ask, completely confused, rather very confused at the moment. Why...would an Irish lass work here?! shame shame shame!

2012-02-25 [Saffron]: Alex shook her head..."No, she wasn't irish at all. I doubt father would let any of those heathens come near the castle. She had come about the book and knew the language because her father was a merchant or something. I didn't really ask the details. I just borrowed the book and had in translated."

2012-02-25 [HeAVenShallBuRN]: 'William' cringed on the inside and had to keep himself from snapping at her. Heathens?!?! HEATHENS?! OH William was very grrful on the inside at the moment. So grful..he should jsut cut her neck out right now! grr grr...grr. BUT there...there was something about her...something that drew him to her...something he couldn't discribe...something he had to figure out.

2012-02-25 [Saffron]: Alex as still looking at her book so if William showed any outward signs she did not see, not that he did or anything. Finally, she would lay the book aside and gaze at him..."Do you like to read?"

2012-02-25 [HeAVenShallBuRN]: "Oh yes, I quite enjoy reading." 'William' smiled. GAzing toward her, he'd rest his arms at his side.

2012-02-25 [Saffron]: Rest his arms at her side O.o Exuses me?!))

2012-02-25 [HeAVenShallBuRN]: fixed <<]

2012-02-25 [Saffron]: Oh I see!))
~~
Alex smiled and held the book out to him..."WOuld you care to read it?"...she asked..."It is the third time for me. I rather enjoy it."

2012-02-25 [HeAVenShallBuRN]: "Sure, I wouldn't mind at all." 'William' smiled
