Oh this reminded Eward of old times; on countless occasions, Eward had been unceremoniously flung out of women's homes as husbands or parents - sometimes even sons - were arriving back earlier than expected. But this time, rather than feeling generally amusing, Eward thought it was terrible timing. How could her mother come back at THIS moment? With desperation Eward jolted upright, fixing his clothes with a shocked look on his face. Adrenaline from both her kiss and the danger of getting caught, Eward followed Katherine at a swift pace breathing heavily.
"You did not tell me your mother would come home!" he gasped, unable to stop himself from grinning despite the situation. As soon as the door was open he stumbled outside, turning around to see her.
