Mary Boleyn's bedchamber

Mary brought William into her bedroom and lit a candle. She looked at him and smiled.

"Would you like something to drink?"

William entered Marys bedchamber it was exactly as he imagined it to be with fresh flowers in the center of the room he turned to face her.

I don't need a cup of wine to enjoy you're company Mary I would rather enjoy us getting to know more about each other .

William grinned their was so much more hidden inside her that he wanted to know.

After a long nap, Mary goes and sits at her vanity as she brushes her hair

•Catherine was now eight her grandpapa had invited her to come to court. She had spent most of her time at Hever castle with her brother. As her nurse maid walked her down the hall Catherine took in the atmosphere. She was not used to being brought to court and was somewhat scared. It was all new territory for her the nurse maid knocked at her mothers chamber. Catherine looked down arranging her skirts, she found them to be a nonsense at times.•

Catherine's nursemaid tells Mary that Catherine would like an audience with her mother "Come here, Ma Petite." she says as she gets up from her chair and smiles

● Catherine let go of her nurse maids hand and stood right in front of her mother. ● Grandpapa sent me to come to court I got new dresses too. ●Catherine looked at her mother with her big brown eye's. She was uncertain if her mother was happy to have her here or not.●

Mary gives Catherine's nursemaid permission to leave "I have heard about that." Mary smiles as kneels down to Catherine's level to take a good look at her "Your mother is delighted to see you."

● Catherine wraps her arms around her mothers neck and gives her a hug.● I like to look pretty and William got a wooden horse. Sometimes when I miss you I go to you're chamber especially when it thunders.

"You are more then welcome come to my chambers." Mary smiles as she hugs her daughter back. She leads Catherine to her vanity to make her look presentable and pulls out a chair for her to sit on. "Have you learned anything from the French tutor that I have chosen for you?"

Anne knocked at door

"Mary? Are you in?"

Mary tells Catherine to stay put as she heads to the door. "Anne, what a surprise." she says as she opens the door "Please do come in."

●Grabbing her doll Catherine quickly hides under the bed as her mother answered the door. This gave her enough time to answer her question. ●

As Mary closed the door and turns around, she notices that her daughter had disappeared from the vanity. "Catherine?" Mary looks around her bedchamber

Anne hugged her sister and she entered the chamber.

"Sister, I miss you so much.."

She saw Catherine's arm under the bed and she giggled

"I saw you, I saw you"

Mary smiles as her sister hugs her. She also notices that Anne has found her daughter. "There are you are Catherine!!" Mary gets down on her hands and knees so she can look under her bed."Why are you hiding when you were told to stay put" she said as she smiles

● Catherine giggles as her aunt Anne finds her. Mother, I thought that you and aunty Anne might want a grown up discussion. So, I thought it best to hide for your privacy. ●

"I would of told you if we did had a conversation." Mary said as she put her hand out "Now please come out from under there." She then looks at her sister "How is his Majesty? He is well I presume?"

Anne smiled at Catherine. She touched her cheek and kissed her softly.

"You are a very smart girl Catherine. I'm proud of you and I feel very lucky to have such a sweet niece like you."

She turned her sister with a smile on her face

"He is very well and it's all right, Mary"

● When her mother wasn't looking Catherine stuck her tongue out at her and went to her aunt Anne for a cuddle. Why thank you my loving aunt. Nobody before has ever called me smart. Aunty Anne, when you marry the king may I be you're flower girl. I'll behave and do my maths even though I loathe them. Catherine's eye's shone as she thought of witnessing her aunt becoming a queen.●

Mary led Catherine to her vanity to brush her daughter's hair "Anything new that you would like to tell me about." she asks her sister as she gently brushes Catherine's long brunette hair

● Catherine watched as her mother brushed out her hair. She hoped her mother wouldn't put it in a coif as that really did hurt. Catherine looked at her aunt Anne through the mirror, admiring her head piece. When can I wear nice head pieces likes your mother.●

Anne was watching her niece. She dreamed of being a dauhgter like her..
She smiled at Mary

"King is preparing a surprise for me. I do not know what it is.."

She looked at the comb and she wanted to brush Catherine's hair

"May I..?"

"Of course." Mary smiled as she gave the brush to her sister "I wonder if it will be another beautiful dress." she says as she looked for a headpiece for Catherine

Anne began to brush Catherine's hair. After she brushed her hair, she left the hair brush on the bed. She put her own headpiece to Catherine.

●Catherine watched with astonishment as her aunt put her hair piece on her head. Catherine arranged her hair to fall down her front like flowing curls. Thank you, I now look as beautiful as you do. Look mother I look just like aunty Anne. ●
