Chapter 15 - Handkerchief

"How'd you know that it was me? I'm wearing my peasant clothes." I asked, "You're father has told me about you. Every nook and cranny" said Gaston with a smile.

I felt a bad aura about him but decided to suck it up for my family. We all were heading to the dining room when I felt Gastons arm wrap around my waist and I just kinda nervously chuckled trying not to seem alarmed.

We got to the dining room for breakfast and my brothers were there already, my older brothers looked very unpleased with the sight of Gaston. They looked closer and saw that Gaston had his arm around my waist and their looks became murderous glares towards Gaston.

As we got closer, I saw that there was an extra chair right by mine. Wait, he was sitting by ME? What? No! I wanted to say something to father but when I turned towards him he looked so happy at the sight of Gaston and I together, so I shut my mouth.

We were eating when I felt a hand on my leg from under the table, I looked and saw Gastons hand! No. He crossed the line. I abruptly stood up and almost yelled "May I go to my room please? I need to grab something!"

"Of course" my father said with a huge smile on his face, he probably thought that it was a gift for Gaston. I got up to my room and grabbed my little dagger, just in case he tries something more bold. While I was in there I decided to just grab something random as a gift to Gaston.

I walked down the steps and sat back down, I put the dagger in my stocking and gave the gift to Gaston, it turns out that I grabbed a handkerchief which apparently is very appropriate as a first gift to a future husband. I thought nothing of it, but Gaston seemed touched and my father seemed thrilled.
