She made her appearance at dinner and then she stayed for half of the dancing and mingling before she begged off to take care of a personal matter. Elizabeth didn't look happy but agreed to allow Lillian to tend her the rest of the evening. Brienna went to find the head of the guard who was not too terribly far from Elizabeth. After convincing him to put Jason to work as a castle guard she headed to the guard's quarters to get his room set up for him. Still hearing the music she had a little skip in her step. She really liked the dancing part of the evening. Sighing she resigned herself to missing that part. Humming she walked down to William's house and knocked on the door. William answered the door and his breath stopped as he looked at her. Brienna had such a glow about her that she literally took his breath away. [color=f6989d]"Is everything alright?"[/color] She was asking about Jason and William nodded as his lungs filled with air very slowly. [color=00a651]"You look absolutely beautiful this evening Brienna."[/color] William said already knowing what her response would be. [color=f6989d]"Why thank you as always William." [/color]She knew he was taken with her and she tried never to encourage the attention from William. She felt bad having asked him to take care of Jason for her. Seeing Jason she smiled. [color=f6989d]"I've found a place for you. Come and I'll take you there."[/color] [color=f6989d]"William please take this as payment for the clothes and shoes. I'll not hear a word about it."[/color] She said pushing coins into his hand. [color=f6989d]"Thank you. You've no idea how much you have helped me this evening."[/color] William nodded. She handed Jason the cloak he had left in her room. [color=f6989d]"You should put this on it's a bit chilled tonight."[/color] Leaving William's house they walked back towards the castle. William closed the door and watched as they walked back towards the castle through the window and he was very unhappy about the favor Brienna showed the young stranger. He wondered where he had come from and decided he would find out. [@Joker892]
