Sparks Fly When You're Around

Chapter 9 - The Plan

- So, we act to accord your plan?

- I should do it but... I can't do that to him. – Mary explains looking away to the window. – He risked everything when he chooses to came here. What kind of person would be if I just ignore that and runaway again?

- You were being the kind of person that still maintains him alive. – Claire approaches from her grabbing her arms and looking at Mary. – Think what will happen to you if this turns a true form!

- And so what, Claire? I will be running from the rest of my life because someone told me to? – Mary asks freeing her arms. – I had quit of Francis when I came here, I had let him go, I accepted that he deserves a better future... a future without me! But now? Now he's here to proven what we fell is strong.

- Until one of you – him – be dead. And when that happened you will not forgive yourself.

- You're right. I will... but you don't know what I fell in these six months without him. You doesn't know what I feel when I saw him after all those years and you have no idea what I felt when I saw him here! I tried to pull him away but I couldn't do it. He will never quit fight for me until I tell him that I'm not in love with him. And I can't do that because what I really wanted in my entire live was him and still is him!

- You will regret of this decision! I know you well to see that. – Claire said seriously.

- And I know me well enough that I will regret if I don't go with him either. So sleep... I will do the same. – Mary said lied down grabbing her pillow remember every memory of them... and maybe Claire was right but she wasn't ready to quit after everything that's been spoken that evening.

There was all that things spinning around her head. She was doing the right thing? She wasn't sure but well... it was what she really wanted all her life. She had quitted and had come back looking for her old self... She knew if he died, she will suffer a lot that was a weight that she had to bare at her own. She tried to sleep but she passed a black night, can't stop thinking what was the right thing.

It was morning and sun was entering in her room. She lifts of her bed and start choosing the dress that she was wearing that day. She was full of doubts and things she couldn't took of her mind and not only about what she was wearing. She finally chooses a black blue dress, she has the help of Claire that was silent. And she didn't want to say anything more to her anyway. She took a deep breath and enter in the Madre Superior room.

- Am I doing the right thing? – Mary asks to her going directly to the point. – I mean... you know what I told you about what Nostradamus saw... but leaving with him is the right thing I will do? – She asks taking a seat.

- I think you should follow your heart and first of all, your people. – Madre says. – And your heart says that you should go back to France with Francis. And you know that this is the best for Scots and for you too. You will never find a man who gives up all for you and you know that's what he did that for you.

- So... do you really think I am not being selfish?

- Why? Because of someone predicted? – Mary asks seriously. – I know that he predicted Aylee death too but you know what I think? I think you should take the risk. You don't know it is truth and for what I see yesterday, I know that you will be in good hands. He loves you more than anything because if not he would go on with his life with Olivia or someone else, Mary! And he didn't. What are you expecting? – Madre Superior asks start a small for her. – Go eat breakfast and go to France.
