Lady Katarina slowly held on to the king's arm which was outstretched to her, she glanced behind her to look at the glare Anne was sending her. Kat felt bad but there wasn't much she could do, the king had a wondering eye. She knew that the king was after her, and she was attracted to him, but she knew he'd tire of her. Like history has taught her. She couldn't help that she liked him.

"I think a tour round the gardens would be a good start." Henry said, his voice rather deep being so close to Katarina. He wanted to take her right then and there but he couldn't do that.

"Tell me about yourself, Lady Kitty Kat

"Tell me about yourself, Lady Kitty Kat." The king teased with a warm smile as Kat brushed her hand on the flowers. She has a small smile on her face as she touched the delicate petals.

"What would you like to know, my lord?" She questioned, turning to him with a bright smile. Her innocence shinning through to him as she did.

"Please call me Henry, and i would like to know everything." He told her, but this worried her, she didn't know what to tell him.

"Well, i'm strange, i guess. I don't act like women should, and i don't want to. I love to read, learn and sing." she tells him, intriguing Henry even more.

"Can you sing something for me?" Henry asked her.

"Um, yeah sure. It may be a bit strange. Umm." She said trying to rack her mind to think of a song.

"Think of me

Think of me fondly
When we've said goodbye
Remember me
Once in a while
Please, promise me you'll tryWhen you find
That once again you long
To take your heart back and be free
If you ever find a moment
Spare a thought for meWe never said our love was evergreen
Or as unchanging as the sea
But if you can still remember
Stop and think of meThink of all the things we've shared and seen
Don't think about the way things might have beenThink of me
Think of me waking
Silent and resigned
Imagine me
Trying too hard
To put you from my mindRecall those days
Look back on all those times
Think of the things we'll never do
There will never be a day
When I won't think of you
Flowers fade
The fruits of summer fade
They have their seasons
So do we
But, please, promise me that sometimes
You will think of me" The king had to whip a tear away from his eye at her beautiful singing.


Suddenly she noticed how close they where, her heart pounded in her dress as she tried to catch her breath. She began to step back but the king held onto her waist, sending electric throughout her, both Katarina and Henry felt it. Neither had felt it before, but they both wanted to feel it again.

Then the king lent down, and captured Kat's lips with his. She gasped into the kiss, but the kiss sent fireworks through her. The king quickly deepened the kiss and Kat placed her arms around his neck. Her hands became entangled in his hair. Suddenly she realized what she did, and slapped the king. Leaving him extremely shocked, who dares slap the king? The kiss itself shocked him- he had never felt like this before.

Kat covered her mouth in shock- what did she just do. "I'm sorry your majesty, I- uh- didn't want to loose my first kiss to anyone other then my husband." She said, as tears welled in her eyes as she thought she was going to lose her head. She quickly curtsied to the king and left. The king vowed then and there that she was his- and no one else's.
