"Right I go and get Kara and Jade." Kara was Katies horse, a beautiful chestnut coloured horse, gentle and calm and easy to ride, Jade was my horse she was jet black with a single dash of white running from between her eyes up to the top of her forehead the reason I called her Jade is because when my mother and father gave her to me they tied a small box onto her saddle, inside was a gold necklace with a jade stone inside( the box tied to the saddle of Kara was a sapphire ) however Katie had her heart set on a horse called Kara."You go and get my lilac bag and my purse that matches." and I added as an after thought "do you want to run away today kit has wanted to get away from this place for ages, we can leave a note for dad saying we both renounce the crown, since he is so ashamed of us he won't mind at all"

" yeah, let's let our cousin Lilly take the throne." she ran off to fetch the things I had instructed her to she came back quickly before I had even begun to walk to the stable."should I get a few clothes as well?"

"Yes I didnt think of that yes do." she turned away again and ran up the spiral stairs. I turned to the double door in front of me and went down to the stable and saddled up the horses, then led them up to the traveled drive and quickly scribbled a note to our parents and put it in the plant pot, this was so that they would Only get it when we were at least a reasonable distance away.

Me and katie rode to the cottage that Kit stayed in and rapidly explained. He looked shocked and disappointed then he said slowly but sternly "no you can't run away this country is falling to pieces and in any case Katie you don't actually have to marry this man because you can marry someone else before your father can arrange anything and you Eva..." he spoke more softly to me,"you can do anything you put your mind too, anything and all you have to do about the marrying a sir thing is knight the man you love obviously thinking up a different reason and then you can marry him." by now his hands were cupping my face his lips only slightly parted he moved his head closer to mine and I then found my own face moving closer to his and then we were kissing in the middle of the street, a soft gentle kiss but still filled with passion and lust...

That was when I realised it was him I loved, I loved him, I loved him and my father was noy going to ruin that NO I would not let him

"I love you Eva ire ally do more than anything but we can't be together not until I have made something of myself."

"who said I wanted to be with you Kit ."

"are you saying you don't "he said with a wide grin spreading a across his face.

"I never said that " I said with glee then added "I could knight you I'll fall off of jade and then you can find me on the mores and bring me back my father would certainly let us be together then especially if I had been missing for the whole day from Six in the morning til seven at night, then he will let us he will he will."

" ok, but not yet and you are not really going to fall of your horse we will take a picnic to the mores we will say that you fell of your horse and I will bring you back. And we will pretend that I heard yelling and ran to save you, you will have to act like you have hurt your leg obviously."

" hey love birds did you forget I was here HELLOOOOOOOO!!!!"

"sorry urrr we better get back bye Kit "

"Bye lover boy " my sister said taking the Micky out of us( me and Kit have known each other all our lives and deep down I know that I have loved him for a long time I just never dogged deep enough inside myself to realise it.)

"see ya carrot tops"
