in a beautiful dress in a huge mansion. Surrounded by young and beautiful women and men. Dancing and talking.
"Isn't it beautiful?" I look to my right to see Trisha, Madison, Madeline and Gwendolyn.
I ignore her. My thoughts elsewhere. My thoughts were in a garden with the man I love. My soul mate, my lover, my ETERNAL lover.
"Are you still thinking about Alex?" Trisha asks me. I nod. "Well I for one am sure that he'd hate if you don't enjoy this fabulous party. We're gonna go dance. You sure you don't want to come?"
I shake my head. "I'm fine." I say. "I'll stay here, you girls go have fun." They leave. I stare out into the night sky, wishing that Alex was here.
"Are you not enjoying the party?" Says a voice by my ear. I look to see that it is William Morangue standing behind me.
"No it's a beautiful party, it's just not" I trail off
"Your kind of thing?" He offers. I nod. "I know that you would much rather be roaming the forest than stuck up here in a big puffy dress. Perhaps we could go wander the woods sometime. Together." He smiles at me. I nod.
"Maybe." I mutter but my thoughts are far away from here.
"Would you like me to show you a secret passage out of here?" He asks. I stare at him.
"You'd do that? For me?" I'm both shocked and pleased.
"Why yes, Rose. I seem to be quite taken with you." He smiles as if waiting for me to say I feel the same. I sigh, hating to break the man's heart but I just can't lead him on.
"I'm so sorry, Will but I have feelings for someone else."
He nods. "I know that, Rose. Why else do you think I haven't told you yet? And I also know that you are in-love with Alexander Foster. But he won't return your love. Alex doesn't love anyone but himself. He couldn't love you like I do."
I shake my head. "I'm sorry Will but you're wrong. Alex loves me more than anything."
He nods. "I knew you'd say that. I want to help you but I also want you to be happy. You may go. Nobody will even find out."
I nod. "Thank you." I lean in and kiss his cheek.
