Bloody hell! Was that a threat? What did I just get myself into?

December 21st

I wake up to the light, beaming in my eyes. I get up, then go to the bath prepared for me. I scrub myself and fall into the water until a loud meowing sound wakes me up. Its Daisy. I get out of the tub and grab the towel. I change into this dress. I do my hair routine, as my curls fall to my shoulders. Then put my black round glasses back on.

I sit in my chair and sip my tea, then suddenly Daisy starts meowing loudly

"Daisy, what is it?", I ask, then look out the window.

"Oh, dear!" There is an attack on the palace, maybe now, I can break free

"Oh, dear!" There is an attack on the palace, maybe now, I can break free. I look out the window again and sigh. I grab my bag and place Daisy inside, then take off my heels. I take a deep breath in, and out then jump out of the window. I run through a crowd of people, as more explosions are thrown, and I just continue running. Even when I'm far from the Palace, I don't stop I continue running...until. I bump into a horse and fall to the floor. The horse yelps, and runs away, then a loud thud on the floor, a man gets up.

"Alright, I deserved that.", I say, as I start to get up.

"Are you alright?", a white man, with a British accent, brown eyes, a perfect nose, semi-wavy hair, and a cigarette in his hand, asks me. He holds out his other, hand for me. And I clutch onto it, for assistance.

"I think."

"I scared off your horse. Didn't I?", I continue.

"It's alright, darling.", the man says, to me.

"I'm so sorry.", I place my head inside my hands. I look around and don't find my bag. Where is Daisy?

"What's wrong?", he questions.

"My cat, she was in my bag. But when I fell, she must have gotten out.", I answer, in a panicked voice.

"Need not to worry. We'll find her.", he reassures me.

"We?", I say, confused.

"It was partly my fault innit.", the man responds.

"I guess.", I say, with an awkward smile.

"I'm Nicholas.", Nicholas says.

"Victoria.", I say. Nicholas kisses my left hand. "Pleasure to meet you, Victoria.", he says, I smile.

"We should start looking.", I say. Nicholas nods, and we begin searching for Daisy. We head on our walk.

"I frightened your horse, how, will you get where you were headed?", I ask.

"I'll figure it out.", Nicholas responds. "Daisy!", I yell, when I hear meowing. I pick up my cat, and look at Nicholas, as he smiles at me. I look at his arm.

"You're injured.", I say, as I drop Daisy, next to me.

"It's nothing.", he says.

"Let me aid, please. It's the least I could do.", I say, my gaze softening. Nicholas nods, I wrap his arm, with the wrapping cloth.

"See, as good as new.", I say.

......

"Thank you", Nicholas says, looking at me sincerely.
