"Are you sure you don't want to bathe back at the castle?" Gabriel asked me.

The carriage stopped in front of my house. We have just came from the waterfall and my hair was still so wet and cold.

"No, I'm fine," I said. "You've done so much. You should get back."

Gabriel thought this over. "Are you sure?"

"Yes, Gabriel," I said. "I can take care of myself." I leaned in and kissed his cheek. "There's warm water inside."

Gabriel smiled. "Fine. Okay, I'll leave you to it then. I'll see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow." Before Gabriel can summon someone to open the door, I opened it and jumped out. "Love you."

He chuckled. "I love you too." Then I closed the door and stepped back.

The carriage rode away and I stood there till it was no longer in my sight. Once it was, I turned around and walked to my front door.

It was night time, so my family will be coming inside soon. I entered the house and hurried to get the water boiled up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I stepped out of my bath, wearing my nightgown and slippers. My hair was wrapped in a towel and I now felt calm. I headed to my room and let the towel fall from my hair. I brushed my hair as I hum.

Now that Gabriel told his father, had destroyed the one thing that would keep our lives from getting more frustratingly complicated, and so with that I believe that we can get to our lives together.

The process begins, I would become Endhart's princess and queen. I would become royal.

But more so, I would become Gabriel's wife and constant companion. I would become his best friend for life and I couldn't be any happier.

I grinned.

I met the love of my life.

After my hair was mostly dried, I walked out into the living room and kitchen. My mother was already preparing food, my father was still outside probably putting his shoes away and my grandmother was readying the table. My little brothers were in their room, changing. I know so because when I passed by their door, I heard Nol telling Xander which shirt to wear.

"Hello!" My mother and grandmother looked up and saw me smiling as I walked up to Mother first to hug her and then to grandmother, giving her a kiss on the cheek.

"Ezra you're back my dear!" Grandmother said, grinning as I pulled away from her. I turned to my mother.

"So how was your trip?" Mother asked as she returned to cook.

Grandmother sat down at the table and I couldn't join her. I was too excited.

"Well Gabriel took me to the shore and I have to tell you, it's so beautiful! I wish you all can come someday."

"Oh I been there once with your grandfather," Grandmother commented. "It was beautiful and so romantic."

I blushed. "It was."

"That really sounds wonderful, Ezra," Mother said. "I'm glad you enjoyed yourself."

I grinned. "Very much." I couldn't stop blushing as I thought of him. "After that, he took me to the waterfall."

"The waterfall?" Mother said. "He took you to two places?"

I nodded. "Yes. He asked whether I want to go to the shore or the waterfall. I chose the shore since it interest me more. He thought that I should see both."
