When in exile

This could be a rip off of Momma Mia (Elizabeth)

"Victoria, what have you done, your father will be here any minute, go change!" I yelled seeing her come up the lawn covered in paint, in the distance I see her Fiancé James running to catch up he was also covered in paint "James Windsor! what have you done to my daughter!" I yelled at him, with a smile when he comes close, he was laughing "sorry Beth, but it wasn't my fault, Simon ruined our golfing by dumping paint on us!" he said trying to act innocent "stop blaming, Simon, your face says it all, you had it all planed out" I say putting my hands on my hips shaking my head "yes, I did, I'm sorry Beth" he says "oh for gods sake, just go get cleaned up, and quickly!" I say ushering up the stairs. Simon was Charles Son... surprisingly enough Charles found love and had 2 other children, we had decided that I was their Aunt and Charles was Victorias Uncle. it took a whole lot of guts for me to send the invitation to Logan, I wasn't sure what I would of done if he said no, or was Married with kids, but he said yes and came alone. now I was freaking out, he hadn't seemed pissed but I have no idea how he really feels. a year after Victoria was born my mother committed Suicide, 7 years after that my father died of a heart attack, I haven't left England since I first came here, but I had let Victoria go see the world with her friends and cousins, I was a nervous wreck though. James Windsor was one of my favorite people, not just because he was Marrying my daughter but because he was kind and caring, a bit sarcastic but Victoria loved him and I knew they loved each other for a fact. he also goes up in my book because he is of Nobility his full Title was Duke James of Yorkshire, I have a title also but I don't really use it technically I'm Lady Beth Of Cheshire, which has been passed down for generations in the Bradford Family, and now Victoria will be Duchess Victoria of Yorkshire. I'm so pleased, I'm just dreading having to face Logan... I hear a car pull out and people get out and then a knock on the door, the servants opening it and they walk in I was looking out the window into the court yard and freaking out "lady Beth mr. Wilcox is here" the servant says and I take a deep breath and turn around. "Will you please shut the doors Maggie. thank you" I say as she leaves "first off I would like to say I am very sorry for never telling you.... and are you pissed?" I asked. he looked the same a bit more mature as there was a light gray to his hair, but he was still the same logan. " it's fine, just a bit shocking, I was pissed at first, but I figured that you would have a much better explanation, for every thing that happened." he says, he was so logical "I do have a better explanation for why I didn't marry you and I left the country." I say sitting down and he follows my action "my grandmother was murdered, by my family, I was later disowned when the real will was found because I stood to inherit everything she had, but when they realized that as soon as I turned 25 I would get it no matter what. they came after me trying to kill me, I couldn't bring you into it without risking your life, I was told I would be safe in England and I am. I should of told you sooner about Victoria, and found you after my father died, but bloody hell I was scared to death if you." I admit and his eyes sparkle like they used to with amusement and concern and a dash of curiosity "why where you scared of me?" he asked almost looking hurt "I was afraid that you would be mad, or married with kids and I was just a girl to ruin your marriage, so I stayed away..." I say dabbing some tears with tissue, I fell his warm arms around me in a hug, I felt something I hadn't felt in years safety and comfort the exact same feeling I had when he first kissed me "wait a second" I whispered getting out of his arms and silently tip toeing to the door that I opened and James, Victoria, George (Kate and Williams son) and Simon stumbled in. "hi lady Beth" George says trying to be innocent as usual "I'm really quite disappointed in you George, James, Tori, Simon... how many times have I told you, you can't scuff up the floors with your shoes!" I say pointing at the mark one of them made, I honestly didn't care that they were ease dropping. "sorry mum" Victoria says with James giving her a hand up "and to think, you two are getting married soon, and you still act like 5 year olds" I say with a smile laughing. then I remembered logan was here "um Victoria this is your father Logan Wilcox" I say her face is full of shock and so is his, she inherited my red hair and blue eyes but that was about it, she had Logan's tan skin and smile, she was tall 5'9 luckily James was 6'3 so it wasn't awkward. she was built like him muscular but she had an hourglass figure, she was stunning absolutely stunning, and beautiful. they awkwardly kind of looked at each other before they hugged she was crying, and he was about to "well let you two talk for a bit" I say ushering the boys and myself out, closing the doors walking away, taking my heels off coming back to the room to the door so I could ease drop, yes I trusted Them but I was a concerned mother who cared about her daughter. "You really shouldn't complain about us ease dropping, when you do the exact same thing" Simon whispers "oh hush it simon" I say hitting him on the shoulder. "mum, you honestly don't trust us do you" I hear Victoria say through the door "what did you say darling, I was just passing by" I say opening the door sticking my head in. Logan and Tori start laughing a bit and I walk in "boys I swear, if you don't go outside, I will make sure you never find happiness, and that includes you James!" I say I saw a worried look on his and Victorias face, maybe I was a little harsh, but hey why not. "Elizabeth, don't you think your being a bit harsh" logan says with a smirk, oh I want to slap that smirk off his face, so badly "oh shut up" I say a bit too cold. " tori, darling there are still a few things I need to speak with your father about, why don't you go outside into the courtyard." I say and she leaves. "your still so cold" he says with a bit of a smile "like you aren't Jack Frost" I snap back "hey, I didn't mean it in offense, remember we were bitter buddies" he says chuckling. I slap him "your so physical" he says meaning it another way that what he said, I glared at him. "and your so delusional" I say, and he smiles "I've missed you" he says "I missed you too...." that made my heart skip a beat, I've wanted to hear those words for so long... "is there anyway we could have a future?" he asked carefully. I had thought of the possibility of us being together, but I wasn't leaving England and he was still in Canada, and what if he didn't want to leave, or what if Victoria objected "I'm not sure" I answer... where was Meryl Streep to sing the 'winner takes it all' and 'say I do' when you need her too, was Victoria Sophie... James and her better still get married... was logan supposed to be like my Sam and I was Donna? "I'm sorry, that was just really random, your life is here and mines in Canada..." he says, my heart breaks, but he's right... "no, it was a reasonable question" I say, things were beginning to get awkward "tell me if I'm completely out if line for asking this but can I kiss you?" he asked, I laughed I shouldn't of "yes, but please don't ask, I hate it when people say that, it's like just all ready" I say before he cuts me off with his lips on my mouth, I had forgotten what it felt like to be kissed by him. "I wish we could do that every morning" I mutter after we broke away. "We could of been doing that every morning for the past 23 years" he mutters "I know" I say stiffing in back up, I loved him still. "you know, this is just an idea, I could make this my last year of being a Mountie" he says "oh no, I couldn't ask you to do that" I say betraying my heart and brain "Elizabeth, I'm still in love with you, and I would do that for us, if you still love me" he says with so much hope "yes, oh my gosh that would be wonderful, I love you logan" I say hugging him with my eyes teary. he kisses me and we just hug for a while longer, I never wanted to let go but I had too. "your never leaving me again" he whispers into my ear "I never wanted to" I say as I open the door. I walked out to the court yard "James! you have to leave, your getting married tomorrow and you can't see the bride, say your goodbyes and go.... c'mon spit spot" I say shooing him to his car "George and Simon are you staying here tonight or leaving?" I ask, I didn't care what they did "no were supposed to go with James" they say "well then good, well see you tomorrow and if you show up drunk I swear..." I say walking away with Victoria waving goodbye. "mum, I'm starting to freak out" she admits when she goes to her room "why darling?" I asked confused "I love him so much, but I don't want to end up like you and dad, married and then split up not talking to each other for 23 years" she says bursting into tears and I realized I never told her what actually happened "oh no, honey, that's not what happened. you know my parents and siblings were bad people, well I met your father when I was in Canada and we started dating and then I found out I was only safe in England, so the day before I left he proposed and I turned him down because I couldn't drag him away from his life, then I found out I was pregnant with you and I never told him." I say hugging her "oh, so your marriage just didn't work out" "no sweetheart... when I see you and James together I always see the love between you two, you are in love with him and he is in love with you, your marriage will work, trust me" "thanks mum I needed to hear that" she says calming down "now you should get some sleep, tori you have a big day tomorrow." I say kissing her head and walking out if the room. My daughters getting married tomorrow.... my daughter, Logan's and mine..... what the bloody hell?
