"Well, Mother has said that there's, um, there's always room for you with us." Tewkesbury said, looking hopeful.
"Your mother clearly hasn't spent enough time with me." I said in a teasing manner.
"And...if it was I, that asked you to stay?" Tewkesbury asked, serious in tone.
I was startled. I considered it, did I want to stay around him? "...A kind offer, but one I must refuse." I said, feeling guilty as I looked down. I looked at Tewkesbury and saw how my words had affected him. Slowly, I reached up and covered his hand with mine.
Tewkesbury looked at me in shock and sadness. "How will I...? When will I see you again?" He said, his breaking voice tearing at my heart.
"You're not rid of me yet, Viscount Tewkesbury, Marquess of Basilwether." I said, smiling after saying his full title.
Tewkesbury smiled at me, then took my hand that was covering his and brought it to his lips in a gentle kiss. My mind was reeling. I leaned against the bars that separated us, closing my eyes as I reveled in my last few moments with him before removing my hand from his.
I walked off onto the streets of London, looking back one last time to see him smile as a single tear rolled down his cheek.
