My heart bound itself to
yours... my affection has
grown with every minute,
every hour, and every day.

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

/ this is also me but good night everyone

[ANTHONY. @TEMERARIOUSPERT]

/ okay I must sleep I'll see everyone whenever I'm back here LOL

[ANTHONY. @TEMERARIOUSPERT]

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

Semantics. There's a reason he isn't a man of proper society.

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

he cannot marry a maid … he needs to find a suitable lady … something that she is not

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

He can marry her.

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

how ..

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

He will find a way .....

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

how can they be together … he cannot be with a maid

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

"I should .... But I don't want to ...."

He held her hand still despite the fact they had arrived at their destination. Opening the door, he offered her a small smile.

"My lady..."

[* 𝓢𝒐𝒑𝒉𝒊𝒆. @ENCHANTEDMAID]

Sophie was still holding his hand softly, a soft sigh escaping her lips as she looked at him. “I guess you should go..”

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

They can be together if she allows the thought of it first. She is running from him....

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

they cannot be together .. therefore, it would be easier for her to leave so that he can find a suitable lady

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

. . . Must she always go against his will?

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

she has already spoken to his mother … about writing a letter. it won’t be long

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

....she had free will, of course. But he will sooner leave them let her go.

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

he cannot stop her ..

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

... He will not let her leave.

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

and she refuses to make him leave ..

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

No. He will not be the reason she needs new boarding and a new job.

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

perhaps it is better for the both of them if she’s the one to leave ..

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

There is. He hates seeing her cry.

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

no .. he should not have to do such thing

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

There is no reason for her to leave. If she really is troubled by his presence, he can stay away.

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

about whether or not she would like to stay at the bridgerton house .. whether or not she is going to accept another position

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

@ENCHANTEDMAID He nodded, downcast like a kicked puppy but he guided her back as she requested though he would not utter a word lest his mood betrayed him. Walking slowly, he wanted to drag out the moment as much as he could before they reached Bridgerton house again.

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

Glancing at @ENCHANTEDMAID across the room. Would she like to go for a walk?

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

Thinking too much about what? What's wrong?

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

she’s not very sure about that .. she has just been thinking too much

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

/ I apologise for being here so sporadically y'all.

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

What's too much? Is there anything he can do to help?

[𝐬𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐞 @OFTHEMYSTERIOUS]

everything is just a bit too much .. forgive her

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

Reluctantly he stopped at her door, unwilling to let go of her hand. He was drawn to her, however much that may cause her trouble.

[* 𝓢𝒐𝒑𝒉𝒊𝒆. @ENCHANTEDMAID]

Sophie held onto his hand softly as they walked, she took a deep breath as they got to her bedroom. She slowly looked at him.

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

What's wrong? Why is she crying?

[BENEDICT. @CAUSTICCONNIVER]

Wondering what @withsilverglove is up to.
