Mary's point of view
"Francis have you seen that diamond bracelet your parents gave me for our engagement party?" I asked "Um in the left drawer." He said, I went over to the dresser and opened up the drawer, I picked it up and took it out. "If I get to that castle and all my stuff I originally packed isn't there I am going to be so mad." I said "Well you won't be wearing anything most of the time." He smiled "Haha very funny." I smiled "Well after our wedding we have many more castles in our name." He smiled and put his hands on my waist and pulled me in close. "We will just have to visit all of them through out our marriage." I smiled "Maybe we can raise our family in the one we like the best." He smiled "I thought we were supposed to fill up this wing with babies." I smiled "We are, if we try hard enough we could fill up multiple castles with our children." He smiled "Your not the one who has to push all those babies out." I smiled "I'll be by your side while you give birth to our dozens of babies." He spun me around. "Mr.Valois, it is not proper for men to be in the birthing chamber." I smiled "Well I will just have to change that." He smiled then kissed me. "I might break your hand giving birth." I giggled "I'll live." He smiled "We should go to the courtyard now." I said "I'll escort you, madam." He smiled "I'm going to go talk to Lola, I'll meet you there." I said "I can come if you want." He said "It's all right, I want to do it alone." I said "Good luck my love." He kissed my cheek then walked out. I went Lola's chambers and she was packing. "Lola." I said "Can I help you?" She asked rather rudely. "I see your preparing to leave." I said "Yes, french Court holds bad memories for me." She said "Which are?" I asked "Francis rejecting me and the miscarriage." She said "What miscarriage?" I asked "Last night, the stress and trauma caused me to lose my child with francy." She said "Do not call him francy, to you it is your grace. And no one believes you had a miscarriage because no one believes your pregnant." I said "I know and that's all that matters." She said "Look, I am going to give you a better offer than you deserve, you may take your pay for the months you have been here and leave France with your life. If you ever try to hurt me, Francis, or our future children. I will kill you with my bear hands." I said, she looked at me like she had finally realized everything she has been doing was completely crazy. "Fine." She said then I walked out, I put my cloak on and went to the courtyard. "How did it go?" Francis asked "As expected." I said "She's no longer and issue my love." He said "I feel bad because I'm a really big bitch to her, but she is an even bigger one." I said "You have nothing to be sorry about, she's responsible for her own actions." He said "I suppose your right." I said then went over to Kenna. "I'm going to miss you." I hugged her. "It's only two weeks." Kenna said hugging me back. "You better be back with Bash when I get back, he's heart broken." I said "How did you know about that?" She asked "Kenna, Francis and I tell each other everything, and Bash never mopes, he's full of energy and now he barely ever comes out of his room." I said "We had a big fight, I guess it wasn't that big of a fight, I blew it out of proportion." She said "I'm sure he'll forgive you, just talk to him." I said "Don't worry about me, have fun on your wedding tour." She said "Thank you Kenna, I love you." I said "I love you too Mary." She said then I went over to Greer. "It's only been a couple months and your leaving again." She smiled "Only for two weeks." I smiled "I'm going to miss you." she said. "I'm going to miss you too." I said "You better be back in time for our annual secret Santa." She smiled "I would never spare you my amazing homemade gifts." I giggled "Like the blanket you sowed me that had a hole in it?" She laughed "That was iconic." I giggled "Well it wasn't better then the homemade soap I made you." She laughed "God that smelt awful." I laughed "You better get going." She said "I love you Greer." I said "I love you too." She hugged me then I went back over to Francis, he was saying goodbye to his parents and brothers, I was talking to Bash  and Leith then Francis's little brother, Henri, was tugging on my cloak. He looks just like Francis. "Mary don't leave." He said with tears in his eyes. "Now Henri there's no need to cry, I will be back in two weeks and I will play with you all you want." I said "Two weeks is a long time." He said "Can you tell me how many days that is?" I smiled "ten!" He smiled "That is so close! Try again." I smiled "Thirteen?" He asked, I held up four fingers. "Fourteen!!" He said "Good job!" I smiled "My mommy says your going to have a baby soon." He said "Well I don't have a baby in my tummy yet, but maybe when I come back I may. Then you will be an uncle, won't that be cool?" I smiled "Mhm." He smiled nodding his head. "Now tell me what you would like me to bring back and I will make sure I get it." I said "An elephant!" He said "Well I'm not sure I can bring back that, mainly because I'm not going to Asia and I have never even seen one myself." I said "Chocolate?" He asked "Now I cant bring you that." I smiled "Yay!" He hugged me. "Henri are you flirting with my wife?" Francis laughed "I don't need to flirt, Mary is my girlfriend." He said "Oh I almost forgot about that." Francis laughed "I thought Greer was your girlfriend." I smiled "Greer says she loves me a lot but we are not boyfriend and girlfriend." He said "Well I think you should find a nice girl your own age who you can love and have as your girlfriend." Francis said "Mary, were breaking up, it's not you it's me." He said "That is very tragic Henri, Thank you for letting me down easy." I said "Bye bye." He hugged both of us, Francis and I said goodbye to Cathrine and Henry then Francis helped me into the carriage. "I think your trunks are going to way down the carriage." Francis laughed "Please, with the amount of clothes you made me pack you, it's not my clothes." I laughed "Mhm sure." He said "Oh shut up, I am in a very fragile state right now. I just got dumped by a five year old." I smiled "I know sweetheart, you must be crushed." He laughed then we sat down on the bed. "This is a pretty cool carriage." I said "I know, we have to so much time to perfect our skills." He smiled "We can do that, after you tell me what the hell happened with Condé." I said "You just have to ruin the mood." He laughed "Yes I do, now tell me." I said "Okay do he has always been a womanizer and he's quite ugly in my opinion so I never go why women threw themselves at him." He said "Because he's rich and semi royal." I said "Shh Don't interrupt baby, now one day he got super drunk at this party, with prostitutes, and he choked one of them and raped them until she died." He said "Oh my God! That's awful!" I said "I know, and he moved on from whores to noble girls which is why I don't want him anywhere near you." He said "Please tell me he's leaving court." I said "He's leaving after Christmas." He said "Ugh." I said "Hey, I'll make you forget all about him." He said "Oh will you?" I smiled "If my queen wants me to." He smiled "Your queen commands you to." I giggled then he kissed me.
