                             Y/n's POV

   "Shouldn't you be doing your fancy business things" I say looking at Tewkesbury and we walk the trail.

  "I can do normal things too you know".

  "Oh really?" I ask sarcastically bumping into him playfully.

  "Yes actually" he says bumping into me before grabbing my hand and pulling me off the path.

  "Tewkesbury!".

  "Just trust me," he smiles.

  He pulls me along, jumping over fallen logs and rocks.

  "We stop by a fallen tree, bigger than any tree I've ever seen.

  "If I get poison ivy because of you-"

  "You won't" he whispers.

  He helps me on the tree and climbs on after me.

  "How do you find these places" I ask setting my on his shoulder.

  "I have no idea, I guess it's a gift".

  We sit there for a bit, no talking, no nothing.

  "How's your sister been?".

  "Enola's been fine, she's working on a case right now".

  He smiles, "Glad to hear".

  "Tewkesbury?" I question.

  "Ya?".

  "You've always been quite fond of my sister haven't you" I say it as more of a statement rather than a question.

  "Fond?".

  "Oh you know what I mean".

  "I mean I think she's a lovely person".

  It seems as though my heart drops to my stomach.

  "But I'm not in love with her, if that's what your asking" he whispers.

  "Come" He says helping me down.

  He puts his hands on my shoulder and motions for me to dance.

  "There must be someone special" I pry.

  "Not officially, no".

  "So there is someone".

  "I guess you could say that" He continues to sway.

  "Tell me about her" I press my forehead against his shoulder as a frown settles on my face.

  "She's beautiful, smart, very witty," I can almost hear his smile, "she has Y/e/c eyes and y/h/c silky hair".

  "Her name?".

  "Y/n".

  My heart stops.

  "How many y/n's do you know?".

  He stops and laughs a little.

  "Just one" he whispers, his thumb brings my face to look up at his.

  "I think you must be mistaken".

  "Not one bit".

  "Tewkesbury-".

  He cuts me off, "You can't tell me you don't feel the same, Enola-"

  "Enola doesn't know what's good for you".

  "You are good for me, without you I wouldn't be here right now".

  "No, you wouldn't be here without Enola" I say as I start walking back to he path.

  "Here me out Y/n" He says grabbing my arm, "Without Enola I would be dead, but I wouldn't have continued on my path with the Lord's without you".

  "We would destroy each other Tewkesbury-".

  "You don't know that" he whispers, brushing my cheek with his hand.

  "I'm in love with you Y/n" .

  "No you-".

  "I want you. You Y/n. I want you as my wife, the mother of my children. I could never imagine anyone else filling that role" he smiles.

  "Ever since I saw you and Enola on that train dressed as......men," he laughs "I knew it was you, I knew I was meant to be with you".

  I stop and look in his eyes. He's crying.

  "I- I need you Y/n".

  "Oh Tewkesbury" I wrap him in a hug. His grip tightens on me as if he's afraid to let go, "I want nothing more than that but...."

"No buts, let's just be us........" He says.

  "Let's just be us" I nod.

  I can feel him smiling against my hair.

  "Today".

  "Today?".

  "Let's get married today! Right now!".

  "Today?" I repeat.

  "Today," he nods, "If that's what you want".

   "Today," I smile as he leads me back onto the path, practically running".
