Who: Anne and her father, Thomas (as NPC'd by Amanda)
What: Discussing Anne's future and other things
When: A few hours after Henry and Anne's encounter in the gardens
Where: Anne's rooms at the palace.
With dinner only a few hours away, and knowing that some time after that the King would send a messenger to bring her to his chambers, Anne was in rooms nearly panicing. She'd had her maid dress her in everything in her wardrobe, and she'd taken everything off again, tossing it on the floor or on her bed. There were clothes and jewlery everywhere, and Anne had finally thrown her maid out in a fit of anger. Nothing seemed like the right thing. If the bodice was cut to low, she feared she would seem immodest. If it was too high, she would seem out of fashion and too virginal.
So, she was pacing her rooms, dressed in little more than her chesmise, under skirts and corsett. Deep down, she knew it wasn't really finding the right dress that was the problem. It was the knowledge that she would be alone with the King tonight, and he was expecting her to let him take her to his bed and make love to her. It wasn't even really the act of sex that worried her, though she was a virgin. It was the unknow of what would happen afterwards. Would everyone talk and whisper about her behind her back? Would they compare her with Mary, and call her the next 'Great Prostitute'? What if he didn't like her enough to invite her back, and what if he tired of her too quickly?
She paced the length of the room and back again, stopping to look out the window without really seeing anything, only to start pacing again. She was so lost in her thoughts, that she didn't hear the door open or the footsteps that announced she had company. She has too much to worry about.
