Eleanor sat on a bench at noon, waiting for the arrival of Hsi Majesty. They planned it the night before and she wore her finest gown and jewels to look acceptable for someone to walk with him. She looked up and saw him approaching her, looking very handsome and happy. She curtsied to him when he got to her.

"Your Majesty."

Eleanor smiled to the king. "Your Majesty, I have only arrived her moments ago. No waiting happened." She blushed when he kisses her hand and looked at her gown, a deep sapphire blue and smoothed it. "Thank you, Your Majesty. I have never worn it until today." She looked around as they started to walk.

Eleanor smiled. "Your Majesty is too kind. I bet Charles does worry about my virtue, but I am always looking out for myself and protecting what is most important to me. Though I do find it hard, there are always men wanting those things from me and all are so handsome. What do you suppose a maid like me can do?" She asks him.

Eleanor smiled at the thought of her being locked in a room for all her life, then got concerned when he stopped speaking. "Unless what, Your Majesty? Surely you aren't telling me to give in to their attention." She asked, scared.

Eleanor blushed and looked down at the ground. "You are forgiven, Your Majesty! I do wish to know what it is like, making love and finding myself completely ravished by a man, but I want to do right by Charles. I am always conflicted by what my head and body tell me. I guess that is what happens for most ladies here at court." She said looking up again.

Eleanor smiled nervously, but warmly. "Your Majesty, I would be honored if you would. Please show your most humble servant what she wishes to know." She said, looking him in the eye.

Eleanor giggled a little and his bite caused her heart to speed up. "Yes, Your Majesty." She whispered almost breathless. "What time would you wish for me to be there?" She asked.

Eleanor wathced him walk away with her heart fluttering like a butterfly. She knew in her heart that she always like His Majesty, but now it was more serious.

I needed a fresh air so I decided to take a little walk in gardens. I was glad of my plaid, an enormous bolt of tartan cloth I had wrapped tight around me and pulled up over my head like a cloak. The snow covered up the grass with her great white cloak, and the frost painted all the trees silver,it all seems so magical.I took a deep breath and smiled as I continue to walk through garden.

Cesare took a wall through the gardens his dark eyes looking at his surroundings as he took in the site, as the snow crunched beneath him. He saw a lady- a rather beautiful one, then he recognized her as the Kings Sisters "My Lady" He said simply as he bowed to her.

As I was walking in garden admiring at the beauty around me, I suddenly heard a deep voice behind me .I turned around, and saw a man in front of me that I didn't recognized.

''My lord...''

I said politely and gave a nod towards him.

Cesare grinned though he then remembered not that much knew him at court and inwardly cursed "Forgive me, My Lady." he started off "I am Cesare Garcia, brother to Alfonsina Garcia." .

I listened to him, smiling politely.

''It is a great pleasure to meet you, my lord.So you came in England to visit your sister I suppose?''

I asked kindly,and in the same time I was little curious.

Cesare nodded at the young woman "Indeed..I am very fond of my sister, and i missed her dearly." he said "And now that i also have a nephew, i had no choice but to come."

I smiled a little as I looked around the garden.

''I have heard that your sister was feeling unwell....I do hope that she is better now and that her son is in good health.''

I said kindly as I looked back at him.

''How do you like England so far,my lord?''

I smiled widely up to him.

''So you like English rain? Most of people when they come here for the first time don't like the weather,but I suppose that they need just little time to get used to rain.''

I said as I wrapped my cloak more around me.
