Sarah had her hair in a bun with a French braid, not letting it down. Sarah had blush on her face, as she had a light red shade of lipstick. There was a letter from William informing her that he wanted to have a conversation. Hopefully, it was not anything terrible. But she was determined to take William on that deal.

She didn't want to have another sleepless night. With her hands clasped together, she knocked on the tall white door. The door slowly opened, and there stood Elizabeth. She gave her a smirk. "And what are you doing here?" Elizabeth asked. Despite her attempts to peek inside, Sarah was blocked from doing so by Elizabeth. "Yeah, I don't think he wants company, he's busy with me." Elizabeth spoke out. Elizabeth still had a smirk on her face. " Mr. Blair told me to meet him here. So, if you don't mind." Sarah said. Elizabeth chuckled. " I would rather you stay out there like a dog." Elizabeth said. Sarah then saw a dark tall figure behind Elizabeth. "And who are you speaking to without my permission?" The male voice asked. "Nobody important, really." Elizabeth replied, looking slightly pale. Sarah saw a leather glove open the door. They're standing with William behind Elizabeth.

Sarah decides to give William a small curtsy and glances up at the tall man. Sarah then shows off her pretty dimples. "Please love, come on in." William replied. She passed Elizabeth and gave her a smirk before moving her arm into William's. "What was she saying?" William asked. He was curious. Sarah looked over at him. "Well, she was saying that. Basically, you were busy, and didn't want to see anyone at the moment. I've been doing some thinking about that offer. And I would really like to stay at your place. I'm having such sleepless nights." Sarah said. William nodded. "I see. It's encouraging to hear that you've come to your senses," William said.

"As I will be traveling to Paris, I was wondering if you would like to come?" William asked. Sarah smiled. "Yes, I would love to travel with you. What do I owe you?" Sarah asked. William looked over at Sarah. "Another date to the dance," he said. She laughed, "I wouldn't mind." She spoke. He nodded "alright, we will be leaving here around three in the afternoon. We'll arrive at twelve in the morning. So, we will have a whole day to ourselves. So, you pick a room, and that will be your room for now," he said. Sarah ran up the stairs and quickly chose the room closest to his. She saw how spacious the room was. She didn't have a fireplace like William had but, she did have a balcony and her own bathroom along with a queen size bed.

Once the carriage arrived, William grabs his case full of clothes. And place them in the carriage, it was going to be a long ride. Sarah also had a bag; she had gone back to her place and back a few couple of dresses. She was now a free woman, and she enjoyed the freedom. William had held the door open for Sarah, " lady first." He spoke. She bows, and soon gets into the carriage and so did he. Once on the road, William had crossed his legs overlooking out the window " is this going to be your first time going?" William asks. Sarah nodded, kind of embarrassed she never went anywhere. " Yes, indeed. So, why did you decide to go to Paris anyways?" Sarah asks. William looked away from the window and look back at her.

" Why not? Isn't that where people find love?" William asks, Sarah had a small blush appear on her face. " What? That's what they say. But I'm all seriousness. I like to get away from the house." William stated. " Why did you decide to take me then." She asks, she wanted to know what his emotion was. So far, she only seen him smirk, and just back to serious. Her goal was to make him laugh, to make him smile.

" Sarah, I enjoy your company, but if you keep pestering me with this question, I'll turn this buggy back." He said, William then looks out the window once again. After about eight hours, or What felt like years. They arrive at a hotel, soon the butler opens the carriage and took Sarah hand helping her out. What a long cart ride! She looks around and saw a hotel that they will be staying at. It was rather beautiful hotel, she then. Grabs her bag, but William slaps her hand " no, the butler takes our stuff up." William said. Sarah then gave a smile and moves her arm into his. once in the building, they got to their room, William opening the door. It had a balcony that look upon the city, and a one king size bed. The butler puts their suitcase down and gave William a bow, and soon leaves shutting their door. William then takes a breather
