Proposal
"Cassandra, will you marry me?"
Cassandra looked down startled to find Horace kneeling in front of her holing a ring.
"You do know what you are getting into, don't you? I mean it is not like you can not marry me and have no responsibilities in the whole world. You would have to be king and everything."
"I love you. I will take on the world for you."
"I will have to think about this. It is so sudden and I am not prepared. I have not even considered this before. Maybe."
With that Cassandra promptly walked off. Horace did not move for the next two minutes stunned.
He slowly made his way back to his room to wait out his time until she said something. Hopefully yes.
Turning one corner someone spoke to him.
"Congratulation, Horace." Horace jumped he hadn't sensed anyone there. Realising who it was it made sense.
"Why sir?" Horace asked Crowley.
"Your proposition, of course." Crowley left.
That was odd. Thought Horace. no one was there when I proposed just in case she had said no.
Turning another corner this time it was the king who congratulated him.
"Your majesty."
"I just came to say congratulations. Now I have to go to another one of those silly meetings."
The King promptly left before Horace could say anything.
Now that was really odd.
Horace turned yet another corner.
"Hello Horace. Congratulations, and can I be you best man?" Asked Aaron, One of his best friends at Castle Araluen.
"Wait, What? Why?"
"Your wedding." (I wanted to stick mate here but I thought that it would not really go well with the England theme and everything.)
And Aaron walked off.
By now Horace was really confused. No one had been there when he had proposed. Now the whole of Araluen seemed to know.
Horace waited in his room until it was dinner time. Not wanting to miss out on any food he went down to the mess hall. It was there he saw Cassandra. He walked up to her.
"Can you please tell me what is going on? From what I have gathered you have just about told everyone but me what is happening about my proposition."
"Horace – "
"No can you just tell me what is happening."
"I was just about to go to you room and ask you if you would like to sit at my right hand side. Where my husband or in this case my betrothed should be. I had only just made that decision other wise I would have come earlier."
"Then why when I was walking back to my rooms just after I had proposed did I have people congratulating me?"
"It was probably my fathers and Crowley's evil idea of a joke."
"Your right."
"Let's go."
"Fine with me"
And the world was fine until another author decided to come around and try to kill them. , thus causing more angst and tragedy.
