Above all elseSimply Mine

“Yes, it is quite different from here in England, but it is not who should take all the praise for the way I am now for I had always been like this my lady. Don you remember the way your cheeks would turn bright red whenever we played? Wouldn you say that I was quite playful then? ” he asked, and I thought about it.

”We were all but kids Alexander. You cannot simply expect me to remember every single detail. ”

”Yes you are right, but you must remember is of how much we loved each other, and the promise that we made to each other. ” he said taking something from his pocket, and I gasped.

”My handkerchief? I didn know that you still had it. ”

”Of course I did. It was the only thing that kept me going all this time. ” he said as he looked at it fondly.

”Why did you stopped writing? ” I asked wanting to know the answer, for if he truly cared about me that much how could he forget me.

”I stopped writing for I felt as if we were growing apart. ” We used to write to each other every week, and we would have lots to say, but then one day your letter just felt as if you didn want to talk to me anymore. It wasn even sprayed with your special scent so I just felt as if I was a bother so I started writing less, and in the end just stopped writing all together. ”

”Yes people do grow, and change. Somethings are better left in the past my lord, like the love we shared. ”

”But I do not want it to be that way lady please. If there is anything I can do to make you forgive me for my sins I will do it. I will even walk to the ends of the Earth if you want me to my lady, and that is not even the half of willingness to do anything for your love. ”

”Ha ha. You are rather cute my lord, but any of that will not be necessary. ”

”Does this mean that you dislike me any less? ” he asked hopefully, and I laughed for he looked like little puppy.

”I will put some more thought into it. ”

”Yes! ” he exclaimed in all excitement as he rose to his feet jumping in the air, and I chuckled as his silliness.

”Be careful my lord you might- ”

”Woah! ” he exclaimed as he fell backwards and into the lake, and I couldn hold my laughter as he rose to his feet soaking wet.

”Oh my word are you okay? ” I asked while laughing as I rose to my feet giving him a hand.

”Well thats embarrassing. ”

”For what its worth, I do dislike you a little less right now. ” I said and he smiled brightly.

”If making you laugh means that you will like me a little bit more each time, then I shall be an entire circus for you my lady. Now to get out of these wet clothes. ” he said undoing the button of his waist coat, and I gasped and turned away as he did so.

”My lord this is quite scandalous. You cannot be seen doing such things. ”

”But whatever am I doing my lady? I am just getting out of my wet garments nothing more. ” he said, and I had to fight with every fiber in my soul to not turn around and look.

”You know exactly what you are doing my lord.

”Turn around Adelia. ” he said and I firmly shook my head no, ”please. Just only for a moment. ”

”Okay, but just for a moment. ” I said I slowly turned around and gasped at the sight of what I saw, ”my lord. ”

”My lady. ”
