“I never insinuated you couldn’t, Ems.” Charles grinned a little, “And I will admit it. Though that was not why I came the other day.”
At that Charles ran his hand through his hair and sighed a little. God, this was somewhat embarrassing.
“I was a bit presumptuous and assumed you were in danger, like you know. I left very quickly. I am glad you were safe, though. And yes, I will always look for an excuse to see you,” Charles leaned toward her, “Emmeline,” and he grabbed his drink and sat back in his chair, taking a sip.
Sometimes, he wondered, what kind of relationship would they have should he begin courting her? A good one, he thought. But would they bicker all the time like his parents did? Or sit in silence contentedly… like, well, his parents also sometimes did.
