The Great Hamilton Comet

chapter 4: Eliza

    I changed into the dress that was in the drawing room. I was scared but happy that I have a couple of friends even if one yells all the time. I made my way to what I assumed was the dinning room. It was so pretty in here and my sisters would definitely like it. I sighed as I remember them. "Are you alright?" I heard a voice ask from behind me.

    I turned around and saw Natasha at the doorway. She wasn't wearing the dress that I saw her in before but a simple yellow dress with a bow. I nodded my head and sat down. "I was just remembering my sisters." I told her shrugging slightly. I saw Natasha smile and take my hand. "Well come on then. I have a slight clue of where my cousin took me." Natasha said leading me out of the house.

   A few minutes later, we were back at my time. I saw Sonya talking to a store owner and getting some dresses including one that was a midnight blue.(picture above) She turned around and saw me and Natasha. Without a word, she went the opposite direction after paying for the dresses. Natasha and I ran after her but to no avail. That girl could run away from a group of British soldiers on horseback if she needed to.

   When we got to the mansion that I lived in, I went inside. I overheard Peggy talking to Angelica about a girl with red hair and a different dress then she's seen getting the store owners attention for her. I instantly knew that it was Sonya. I walked in and was practically knocked over by the hugs my sisters gave me. "Where were you? What happened? Did you get the girl?" Angelica asked pushing me to the couch. I kept my mouth shut about everything.
--------------Sonya's POV--------------------------
    I got the dresses and ran away when I saw Natasha and Eliza. I just wanted to see the girl with the yellow dress again and I knew she went this way. I saw a mansion and walked in. The door was unlocked and I heard the girl talking about me. I saw Eliza walk in shortly after me and hid in the shadows until I knew she was distracted. Once she was, I ran out straight into Natasha.

    Natasha grabbed me and took me back to Russia. The more I looked around at people the more I got memories from when someone tried to propose to me. I was slightly shaking when I saw Anatole and Dolokov and I could see Natasha tense up. They noticed us and walked towards us. "Hello there enchantress." Dolokov said bowing to me before Anatole bowed at Natasha. I rolled my eyes in disgust. "Why are you guys here? Off to get drunk at the club and duel someone again?" I asked blinking my eyes innocently. Dolokov growled and grabbed my hand. "I'm still not over my feelings but you never return anyone's feelings. You always say that you want to marry but when I proposed you turned me down for no reason. Unless, there is one and you don't want anyone to find out." He said smiling evilly. What does he know? Does he know that I was in love with my cousin Nickolay? No that's impossible both me and him agreed to never talk about it to anyone. "I have nothing to hide but me and Natasha should really be going. I have to set the table and Natasha has to still get ready." I said grabbing my cousin's hand and going to the house.

    Once we were at the house, Marya was giving us her normal greetings. I went to put the dresses and the new pair of gloves up and went into my dinner dress. After dinner, Natasha and I went back to the mansion in the new dresses that I bought. Natasha looked stunning in a lime green dress that has yellow highlights. Meanwhile, I had on a deep red one with the white bow in my hair as a highlight. We went up to where Natasha saw the two women in the window. I picked up a rock and tapped it on the window glass. I saw Eliza, and two other women walk out. The one that I saw pointed at me. "That's the girl that I saw and that helped me." The other woman glared at us. "Well why are they here at this hour of the night?" She asked glaring. My throat felt dry until Eliza started talking about Moscow and about Marya. The other two women rolled there eyes. "Well then why don't you prove it to us?" The woman asked before walking forward with the one that I helped and Eliza trailed behind. I turned around and started walking until we were back at Moscow.
