I looked up and saw my father standing there with an angry look on his face. He found out.

"Ruby how dare you leave this manor without someone."
I put my head down and gave a slight nod.
"Im sorry."
His hand gripped my chin as he lifted my head to make me look at him.
"You could've been hurt or worse you could've died."
I wanted to cry I wrapped my arms around his waist and the tears fell.

"Ruby, you dont need to cry."
"But father, Im sorry for making you angry."
"Im not angry, Im disappointed and worried."

I let go and looked at him.
"Once again Im very sorry."
"Just dont do it again."
"Yes, I won't."
"Now go find your mother I need to talk to her."

I nodded and walked away.

I found mother in the library, like always.

"Mother.."
"Come in."
"Father would like to speak to you."
"Where is he?"
"In his study."
"Ok please tell him Ill be right there."
"Of course."

I closed the door and looked down the hallway I used to run around in with my sister.
That was fun times.
I walked down the hallway and down the stairs.

When I got to my fathers office I could hear him yelling at someone.
Soon a tall man ran out of the office and ran out the front door.

I knocked on the door.
"Come in."
"Father, mother said she will be down in a moment, she is reading."
"Thank you."
I nodded and left the big doorway heading up the stairs to go to my favourite place in the entire manor.

The secret room in the library.
I saw my mother walking out, and passing me. I watched her walk down the stairs and into my fathers office.

I walked into the library and closed the door behind me. I walked towards the one bookshelf that said ancestors. We have too many books for them.

I pulled out the one saying Eric Nightingale. That was my uncle who passed 5 years ago.

Behind the book at had a small lever. When I pulled it a door opened beside me. I put the book back and walked into the other room. It had most of my stuff but it had a phone too. I could phone my aunt to talk to her. My mom and my aunt are not fond of each other so we dont get to see her very often.

I sat down and pulled out a piece of paper, a quill and some ink. Most people would use this for letters I use it for drawing.

*few minutes later*

I heard my someone coming so I cleaned up my stuff and left the room closing the door.

I ran out of the library to see our maid Lucille.
"My lady, your parents need to speak to you."
"Thank you."

I left the hallway and walked down the stairs heading towards the dreaded office.

I knocked on the door and heard someone say come in.

I opened the door and saw my mother sitting in a chair and my father sitting in his chair.

I sat down infront of them.

"Ruby, my and your father have decided to..."
"As she was trying to say, you are going to go meet your fiance."
"Fiance?"
"We want you to have a good future."
"So you making me get married."
"In a few years time."
"Why didn't you tell me ask me how I felt on the subject instead of choosing a future for me."
"Ruby.."
"No, I dont want to marry someone Ill know for just a day!"
"Your staying with him for 2 years."
"Your giving up the only daughter you have left to someone you probably have never met!"
"I knew the boys father."
"So what."
"Your going and thats final, go pack your stuff."
"But.."
"NOW."
