" What do You mean we cannot bury her in Prussia?" A Young Cassandra asks Her older Brother, Harrison "It was denied, No ship." Harry says

" Or is this just an Excuse from our Cousins?" Cassandra asks, Her voice cracking "We do not know, But I am sure we shall." 

The Young Princess sat up from the Sofa and tears dripped her eyes, Harry sat beside her and wiped her tears off "We shall stay here in the mean time." 

" I do not think I can bare stepping on English soil again." Cassandra wailed, letting her head rest on her Brothers chest and Covering her face with her hands. "Shh, Don't cry." 


December 10th, 1814


3 Months after their Last Contact, The Season was about to end next month. Cassandra missed him dearly, Though she did not want to Admit it, He wanted to see her oh-so desperately. She looked outside the window of Buckingham house, it was nighttime and snow was falling

She turned around and decided she wanted to see him 


-


Her Horse Galloped through Grosvenor Square as she stopped infront of Bridgerton house, She dismounted her horse and left it there. It was already 10 o' clock so she knew no one will answer the door, Presumably. But she walked up the steps and knocked 

Then, The Doorman opened "Your Highness." He bows as she gestures her to come in, She enters as the Doorman closes "May I Know the Reason for you Visit?" He asks

" I came here to see Lord Bridgerton." She admits, He nods and leads her underneath the Staircase to reveal the Viscount's study

The Doorman bows again and returns to his Station, Cassandra took three steps forward and knocked on the Study 

"Come in." A muffled voice was heard inside, Cassandra opened the door and saw that the Viscount was Signing papers "Your Highness." He was about to stand up when Cassandra stopped him "No need for the Formality." She assures him as she closes the door behind her 

She Removed her cloak and sat down on the sofa, Far Far away from him "It is almost Midnight and yet You came here?" He asks

" I wanted to see you." She admits, Anthony smiles "You should have came here earlier." He says

Then there was silence for a while with the Scribbling of the Pen keeping off from the Awkward Pauses. "I see Eloise is Married now." Cassandra says, And Anthony nods "She Happy, a Baby is Expected soon." He says 

" It seems like Eloise is Enjoying married life too much, She almost forgot to write to me." Cassandra Admits and Received a low Chuckle from him 

He looks up at her, She was observing the Fire place. Orange light Illuminated through her Face and eyes, It was a peaceful scene. 

" Would you like to Walk?" He asks bluntly, Cassandra looked at him "Us Two?" She asks and he nods. Cassandra smiles and nods "That would be lovely."

They found themselves in the Backyard of Bridgerton house, Backs laid on the Grass and looking at the Stars. It had been a few hours, Though they were Enjoying Each others company 

" There, A Fornax." Cassandra points with her other hand resting on her stomach "You do Memorize these Constellations Your Highness—"

" Cassandra." She reminds him, As thinking they are friends again

" Cassandra." He says, Looking over his shoulder "I am to return to Prussia." She announces, Anthony knitted his eyebrows together "What?"

He sat up and looked at her "Are you Serious?" He double checks, Cassandra laughs "I am, Though you look quite shocked." 

" I—"

" Do not worry, we can write to eachother." Cassandra assures him sitting up and looking at him " I do not want to write." Anthony says in disbelief as she stands up "Why not?" She asks

" I want you to stay not write." He says also standing up, Cassandra quirked a brow "That cannot be possible, I have duties to accomplish."

" You can Accomplish them here no?" Anthony asks as he starts pacing around, Something was happening "No, I cannot—What is going on?" 

He looks at her for a moment with his hands on hips, he looked... Aggravated. "So you are leaving? Never to return?"

" I believe I shall... In about a decade." Cassandra admits, Anthony was getting more Vexed 

" Anthony if you want To go Inside—"

" I do not!" He Roared, Cassandra was taken aback and took a few steps backward "Why does my departure seems to be like your Problem? Surely You've known this, That was my Intentions since the start of the season."

" Are you sure you cannot find a match here?" He asks, Cassandra knew he wanted something "Why do you seem so desperate for me to stay?" She asks, Clutching onto her arm

" Because I want you to!" He Shouts, Cassandra widened her eyes "You want me to stay—Anthony I do not quite Understand—"

" Ever since that time In the Races, Oh Lord I wanted to be near you. I wanted to Inch ever so Close to you and I've acquired that and now I wish for you to Stay" 

" You Love me?" Cassandra asks with her Eyebrows raised 

" I do, I almost love all of you, I want to Yours Truly." 

Cassandra parts her lips, It is settled then.
