I walk out of my room, and I see two guards were standing outside my room. the Princess and I, we made a plan, that I would meet her outside the gates, "Have a good day" one of the guards said I smile back at the guard "thank you, you too" I carry on walking. I meet the Princess outside the gates, she was wearing a dark brown dress with a bonnet that's the same color as her dress she smiles at me, then we started walking to the market.

Thomas and I walked to the market, from the Duke's mention it was a quite far walk to the market from the Duke's mention to the market, this I don't mind I actually quite enjoyed it. Thomas takes me to the market and walked me around, I was so excited about seeing all the people and all the different foods and different things you can get here. Thomas is just happily walking around smiling, I go over to one of the stalls and buy some bread. We went away from the market and just wandered around for the majority of the day, we decided we should start walking back to the Duke's mention because it's a fair walk, and we didn't want to get back before it gets dark. Where walking up a big hill towards the Duke's mansion, I look down the hill it was all nice and green and I see all the dandelions growing I smile and put down my bread and run down the hill. Thomas stops and sees me running down the hill "Madam !" he puts down his brown paper bag and runs down the hill after me, he grabs me and we both fall to the ground, I'm lying on my back and Thomas is on top of me, where both breathing heavily. We both look into each other's eyes "Madam if you leave your bread there it could get stolen" "please call me Rosefine" we stayed in that position for a few seconds looking into each other's eyes, "come on we should get going before anyone get suspicious" until he stands up and walks up the hill I got up and followed him. We got to the mansion I gave Thomas my bread and I ran to the mansion and I climb through my bedroom window and quickly got change, Thomas waited outside the gates for a few minutes then walked to the mansion.

I walked into the mansion to Rosefine's room, holding my brown paper bag, with Rosefine bread, that she bought at the market today, I get to Rosefine room, standing in front of her door and one of the guards questioned me for being there "What are you doing here ?" "the Princess asked me" the door opens and see Rosefine, I look into Rosefine eyes without breaking contact "get some bread, from the market today on my day off, I told her the bread is always the freshest on the weekend". I hand her the bread "thank you Mr. Rogrvend" she says still without breaking eye contact with me, "you're welcome" "good night" I nod my head "good night Madam" she closes the door I walk down the hallway. I carry on the rest of my weekend without hearing a word from the Princess.

Monday night

I'm standing at the door with Mr. Rogrvend standing in the hallway "good night Madam" "would you like some bread ?" he looks at me "sure" he walks into my room and I close the door behind him. Where sitting on the floor eating the bread that I bought the other day and talking about all sorts of things, after we finish eating the bread we both lay on my bed, "you must've heard I'm about 15 years old, I'm actually 16 years old turning 17 next month, my father says I'm younger, so I'll get more suitors. After that, it went quiet for a few minutes, we both get up out of the bed, Thomas picks up his hat and looks at me "I should be going, and you should get some rest Matter" I walk over to him and unbutton his coat, and look at him was sore full eyes "please don't go". He looks down at me, the same way and we set down by the bed, I slowly fell asleep on his shoulder. Thomas nozzles his head in and falls asleep next to me.
