โ it will make for a good story, i daresay, โ he admitted, his smile matching hers.
โ i shall look forward to meeting you again, dry and .. not all a muddle. โ
a new smile formed on her lips, elizabeth nodded with a gentle movement, and her eyes seemed to brighten just a little more. โ thank you ever so much, sir, โ she murmured, just before curtsying againโshe had clearly been practicing her manners. โฆ
โ don't be silly, โ he muttered, heading over to the counter to order, ready to pay for them both. โ we're twins. what's yours is mine .. and what's mine is also mine! โ
๏พ a chuckle tinged with conviction escaped her lips, rather pleased with the idea.
โand it will be fair, for the marbles you ๐๐๐๐ฆ stealing from me when we were young.โ
โ some .. though uncle says both him and i lack the patience for it, โ he idly replies, looking at the menu as well.
lemons were in season, so perhaps the lemon ice would be favourable.
โ you may fare better and rob us both blind. โ
๏พ her attention was on the menu hanging on the wall, even though in the end she would choose the same flavor as always ๏น vanilla.
โwell, i doubt i'm good enough to bet. there are some tricks to it, i suppose .แฃโ
โ not at all, miss elizabeth. i would be delighted to see you there โโ in a better circumstance. โ
he bit his tongue and held back from asking her to partake in a set of dances at the ball, not wanting to seem overly toward.

โ believe me, it has been nothingโฆ โ she reassured once again, any kind soul would have helped without a second thought. โ you are so generous, though i do hope i donโt disappoint you by being just myself. โ โฆ
โ not everyone would have done the same. truly, i would be honoured to extend an invitation to you and any guests you should like to bring. โ
though their acquaintance had been brief, edwin found himself looking forward to the party โ
it was her turn to feel the warmth rise to her cheeks. she opened her mouth, and for a moment, nothing came out, though by the next she was letting out a small, exceedingly delicate and courteous laugh. โ i would be delighted, โ she murmured, โฆ

โ are you โ โ he stopped briefly, not wanting to be too forward. โ there is a christmas ball soon, hosted at my uncle's behest. it would be a great pleasure to see you there, so that i may thank you properly. โ
her kindness and easy manners touched him, and edwin found himself smiling despite everything.
โ i am in your debt, miss elizabeth, โ he responded earnestly, colour coming back into his face between the fire, the hot tea and her company. โ
a small smile formed on her lips; the truth was, she didnโt consider herself a woman of many wordsโฆ ๐๐๐ก lately, ยซ she thought ยป, and she forced herself to shake her head in a nearly imperceptible movement, though by the end of the day, โฆ
his dark brows raised in surprise as he took the cup from her with a grateful nod.
โ oh! no, tea is perfectly satisfactory, โ edwin insisted, drinking the scalding liquid as if to demonstrate his satisfaction, and was forced to act like โ
lizzy nodded, gently pouring a small amount of liquid into the white porcelain cup, being careful not to spill a drop. โ itโs quite all right, london can beโฆ rather surprising in more ways than one, โ she murmured, then picked up the cup and its saucer beneath it, โฆ

he cursed himself at every word ; he was usually not so .. messy. nearly getting run down by a carriage had its toll.
โ just plain, thank you. โ with a start, he realised his coat was dripping onto the upholstery, and edwin quickly stood to divest himself of it.
โ i apologise for making such a mess, i never thought that going for an evening stroll โ
โ itโs no trouble at all, โ she murmured, hoping to ease his mind. then she finally moved away, enough to approach the small tea service where the teapot still steamed; she definitely did not wish to contribute to the manโs chill. โ do you, uhโฆ take sugar? โ โฆ
โ i do not wish to trouble you, โ he attempted politely. โ though some warm tea does s-sound lovely .. โ
he noticed her accent now and wondered at her identity. surely with her beauty and fine dress she was a lady? though most english โ
โ no, please. โ she gave him space, shifting slightly to avoid making him uncomfortable. then, she glanced at him from the corner of her eye, pausing for a moment before turning in his direction. โ perhaps a cup of tea would do you well, i could prepare it if youโd likeโฆ โ
