Subject: An Engagement Party
Who: Eward Mountford-Miles

Feel free to talk to people other than Eward, btw!

Lisa Chauceford-Miles was getting engaged and she had decided to hold a grand party for anyone she had ever met, including their friends, to help celebrate. So far there were over seventy in attendance at the grand estate, sipping on wine, dancing to music and gossipping amongst themselves. Eward knew his cousin was simply craving the attention but he had stood there for fifteen minutes nevertheless, listening to her babbling about dresses and which church suited her plans. When he was finally able to excuse himself and break away from the mindless conversation he grabbed the nearest glass of alcohol and downed it in one.

These events were never pleasant and he'd be hard pressed to find some enjoyment out of it.

	Eward was, strangely, satisfied with her answer. He broke into a knowing smile, thinking back to how shocked he was when she had thrown herself on him and then, in a slightly coy and shy manner, he looked down. "Oh - yes I remember..." he said with a slight chuckle to his voice. His eyes met with hers. "You are the most surprising woman I know." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Katherine blushed, her face darknening with a becoming red flush, for she knew all too well to what he referred. But she played it off rather coyly, offering a flattered smile and cocking her head to the side to look up into Eward's face, his eyes catching hers. "Then it should not surprise you," Katherine started, placing a gloved hand on his upper arm, not daring to touch his chest in the same manner, else it be thought of as too sensual, "that I am staying."

Her hand lingered on his arm, her eyes in their lock with his, for a long moment, before Katherine broke herself away, walking proudly past Eward out to the party. It would certainly look suspect if they came from a dark hallway together, and Katherine wanted nothing more than to not cause a scene. She was at the engagement party; she might as well find the bride-to-be and then enjoy herself.

Eward's smile seemed like it would never fade, even as she walked out of the hallway. They were all right. They were not fighting. For once, Eward felt happy; he knew it could all collapse and fall in on itself as soon as it had been righted. After all, she was a bride to be herself.

After a moment Eward followed Katherine's path, a grin on his face. He spotted her across the room and instead of feeling dread he hopped over to antagonise some of his most annoying cousins and flummoxed them with his cheery nature.
