Catherine's Bedroom

As I walk in and sleep next to my daughter when I wake she looks at me and smiles and hugs me I plaster her in soft kisses my darling daughter I have missed you as I whisper in her ear my darling daughter I must write to some people if you have your breakfast then we shall go for a walk

As I sit and play with my daughter in the nursery

My darling daughter you know I said I her those children are not coming now but mummy will try to find other children for you to play with as she looks up at me and seeing the pain in her eyes I false a smile, come and read to me

Checking on Catherine smiles when I see her I kiss her good night before I leave

As I look on at Catherine, wishing I could remain here but knowing my sister does need me as well. I sit and think about returning back to Whitehall

I enter her room and smile as she bounds over to me and hugs me I hug her back, would you like me to read to you as smiles and nods I walk over to her and she picks a book out and I open it and and she climbs on to me I kiss her forehead and start to read

Few hours I wake up realise Catherine and myself both fell asleep I smile come my love lets get some food

After a long process we stop out side a door I open the door and beckon my daughter forward telling her to take his hands and guide him forward as I close the door I tell her to let go off his hands you may open your eyes as he does my little girl does a little curtsy as I smile at them both

Ahhh Miss Catherine. It is a pleasure. I bow in return as she jumps into my arms. Oh Catherine, how was your day sweetheart? I twirl her about the room. I look to Mary, Please talk to Cesare about at least acknowledging his other child. Francesca is no whore, just a woman who hasnt found her way yet. She is a sweet soul....

Watches them both as they meet I walk towards them both and kiss each now my sweet daughter this man here is to protect us both he is going to be your father, and mummy is going to have a child I look at her as she hugs him and she says my day was well father will you read to me I look at them both and go over to where they sit and sit next to them and look at William our family kisses his cheek before Catherine snuggles in the middle of us with a book

We sit down on the floor, Catherine in between us and we read a book. These are moments that I look forward to in the future with Mary and our children. Catherine soon falls asleep on my lap. I look to Mary, Could you talk to him please? I whisper...

Smiles of course my love kiss Catherine then William your friend is welcome here this is your home feeling pride in our little family

I will write to her and see what she says. I think that you will love her. She is kind woman. I cradle little Catherine in my arms as she sleeps. These are moments I look forward to with our children.

Giggles i look forward to the time when we can try for children it is much more fun, you too are suitable to each other looking at them as I rest my head on his arm i look forward to meeting you, my friend Ursula is here I hope you meet and the physician but if you wish we can talk to him after so we both know what to expect looking up see Catherine loves you just as much as I do

As you three are mine. I smile and as we sit there, I receive a letter. It is from Francesca. Mary, this is from Francesca. She will come and visit. I motion for a servant. Please prepare a room for we shall have royalty coming for a visit.

Smiles i can not wait my home as never been so busy, I look at him and whisper do we have time for me to become yours properly

I look to her quizzically, What do you mean by that? My heart is pounding, just thinking of the possibilities. I slowly get up off the floor and hand Catherine to her nanny...

Giggles make me yours as I stand and hugs him kissing him how do you think I mean

I thought you meant marriage, which I would love to marry you right now. I sigh, bringing her close to me and ravishing her lips with mine...

lets go to mine chamber as I return his kisses

As I place her new dress into a chest I smile

I walk into Catherine's room and she immediately runs to me. I lift her up. Hi Auntie Fran. I smile, Hello Miss Catherine. Would you like to go on a trip with me and mommy? Her eyes grow wide with excitement. We are going to Italy Catherine. The servants smile and begin to pack her things. Would you like to help pack? She nods and we begin.....
