[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

sounds like a plan to me!

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

that sounds lovely! I ask mother if we can visit you for a while.

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

well, i’ve been doing more things outdoors. gardening and yard work. keeps me thin.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

it does and someone has to do it. and you? have you something else that keeps you a bit busy?

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

that’s lovely. keeps you busy, doesn’t it?

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

i would say as always. i still taking care of aubrey hall and read a few new books.

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

anyway. besides that… how are things?

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

good─!

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

i will make a note of that.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

so, if he troubles you ─ tell me about it and i shall speak with him.

[ꨄ @lostaffections]

you wanted to be acknowledged, didn't you? to be loved?

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

exactly.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

of course! we bridgerton’s hold together

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

perfect! i knew i could depend on you.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

much better, i know him and will scold him if he treats you bad.

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

the good news is that i get to make my husband to be’s life miserable.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

andrew─? well, less complicated as his older brother.

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

he’s not that complicated honestly.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

guess he was worried about sometimes, but honestly? sometimes even he is a mystery to me.

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

and on top of that when i asked him to send me home? he refused! why? people would find out about what happened. i wouldn’t have told anyone.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

honestly ...? that sounds much like him and his brothers.

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

oh, heavens no! he’s so arrogant and sure of himself. never wrong either according to him.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

sooo ... you actually like him?

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

it’s nothing. it’s just… he made sure us becoming engaged would be possible. we were caught a few times being… close.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

... oh? shall i speak to him?

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

didn’t seem like it when we were alone.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

point to you, dearest cousin. but i can assure you that mr rokesby is a true gentleman.

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

i mean. i’m not too happy that i’m being forced to marry a man because his crew was stupid enough to kidnap me making me be alone with him without a chaperone.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

oh my─ but you feel good, right?

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

well, technically he didn’t know at first. i was exploring a cave and the next thing i knew i woke up in his bed on his ship.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

it is ─ just a little new to hear andrew do something like that.

[𝓹𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑦. @notaconsolation]

oh. what a coincidence.

[* 、𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐄𝐑. @FlERCELYLOYAL]

well ─ yes. our families are neighbors and i’d say we have been friends since childhood.
