It was true that Lysander's arrival had momentarily thrown Eward off-guard, but as he strolled through the streets of London he found himself to be calmer than usual. His weekend with Katherine had done much to soothe his nerves, yet it had also brought up new concerns. There was no question now that he loved her but as she was to be married he could not reveal it to her for fear of rejection. She was fond of him that much was clear - but whether her feelings ran deeper than that was questionable.
Spotting a portrait in a shop window which he seemed to be drawn to, Eward paused in his thoughts; it was perfect for his home, the picture encapsulating everything he felt. A couple, heads bowed against each other's with a soft smile. Yet if he bought it, people might question his motives, discuss why he possibly bought the thing and manage to link it to Katherine.
His body was practically flush against the glass when he realised he was staring too long and the shopkeeper was looking at him funny. With a cough he moved away and sheepishly turned his head.
