Sir Rory Miles's pov:

I sat on that chair in the drawing room, going over my papers, I had so much work to do. To keep up with the family. I and my wife were having issues, but I knew it'll be fine in the long run. Will get through it, we've been through worse. I was in the drawing room by myself keeping up with the work. 

I heard a bang on the door, must be the maids. I heard the wild coming into the room, outside the room the door was wide open, My son Mikey was sleeping in his crib. I heard my wife walking through the house, and I heard her outside the door. Talking to someone. I called for her.  I saw her, her blue sky ocean eyes staring into me, "Love Im going to be here all afternoon, may as well call on Collin because Im busy. Im going to be quite busy this week."  She twirled her thumbs and then nods "Do you mind if I take Mikeal out to the garden?" I shrugged "Be my guest honey." She nods and then leaves.

I got used to not being around my husband, but I missed him. I wanted to spend time with him. I wanted to spend time with him but his work was more important obviously. I had called on Collin, he joined me, I grabbed Mikey and grabbed his buggy. We were in the garden, there was a lake on the edge of the garden.  I had a blanket I pulled on the ground, covering it. I sat down with Mikey in his basket looking up into my eyes. Oh, how I loved him. 

We were joined by Cole, It made me smile. Cole sat down on the blanket opposite me, I kept a secret from Collin. I couldn't look him in the eyes. I had dreams about him, and in those dreams, he was my husband, not Rory and Mikey was him, The kisses he gave me were indescribable.  The feelings I had in those dreams were something else. I couldn't look him in the eyes. But I wasn't going to tell him that, It was a secret I was keeping. The song "Rewrite the Stars" Was in my head looking at him, and picturing myself dancing with him.  I couldn't, I wouldn't let myself give in.  Give in to him.

He Stares at me and smiles creep on his face. "What is it, Wendy?" "Nope," I say with a laugh.  He looks at Mikeal He asks to hold him, so I gave him to him. He glares at his smile, looking at his face. "Should we go for a walk along the river?" I stare at the water. "Very well."

He was still holding him, we left the pram where we were sitting. The water was so peaceful, He started speaking going on bout something, and I just listened. "We're friends, and I love that. But I have had thoughts on this, on you. On-" I hated that because I felt the same way just couldn't say it. "About Mickeal being ours." I kept quiet. He looks at me "I know you are married and I would never do anything stupid to ruin this friendship, but there's this feeling I get when I'm around you."  He continues talking "If Rory heard this, I wouldn't blame him for slapping me, but if I was him I would be doing a lot more than slapping him." He laughed at that. 

I turned around looking at him in the eyes "So what are you telling me? am I just another princess to you?"  He laughs at that "You, could never be just another princess, I-." "Then what is this?" "I can't be here, I can't just be your friend anymore, I'm sorry. I can't be here with you if-." I saw it on his face. 

Then he walked away. But he didn't know that was what I wanted too.

After he left I called for a maid to take my son and place him in the nursery. 

****

Weeks went by with no contact with Collin. I missed him, still, my husband was too busy for me. I felt like I had no one, apart from my son. I would spend my days in the Castel, on the sofa in the garden with my sisters and my niece, my niece would play with her cousin. She was gentle with him. I knew then they would have a strong connection, of being close. 

Later on that night it was pouring down with rain, and my husband was stuck in the drawing room for all night, I was starting to feel like I wanted love or something. I just wanted to feel loved, was that too much to ask for?

I had a note from a footman from Collin, it read "Meet me outside." I had my dressing gown on, and an umbrella. I went out to the corner where no one went. I saw him in the door, on the side of the table holding still. "I missed you, I love you." I smiled and didn't think just went to him, hugged him tight as if I didn't want to lose him. "I never told you, but I feel the same."  And from that, he took me in my hand and pulled me into a loving kiss. And I kissed him back so deeply.
