Hubert

After they left sir Billiam just looked at me and walked away,

I was thankful but it was just weird that he would protect me like that.

I decided that I didn't need to look further into this besides he could just be doing this because he still wanted a personal servant

That didn't stop the hurt from raising in my chest.

Billiam

After that was finished I looked over at Hubert to see tears rolling down his pinkish cheeks and his white hair slightly covering the top of his forest green eyes,

Wait..... why am I paying so much attention to his face?! I need to go cool down, I took one last look at him and walked away.

As I walked back to my office I tried my best to push aside the butterflies in my stomach, before I could enter the room a servant stoped me

"Sir Billiam, Miss Elizabeth is here to see you" I rolled my eyes

"Tell her I'm busy, and that I appreciate her coming all the way over here too see me." I said as I tried to walk past him

"But she's in your offic-" before he could finish I already pushed open the door, now I wish I hadn't

"Billy! Good to see you my love!" I gagged a little as I saw her running towards me

"Good to see you too..." I suddenly want Hubert to be here

"What brings you here my lady?" I said with a fake smile trying not to scowl at her.

"Too see you of course!" She hugged me I refused the urge to shove her off

"Sir-" I looked over towards to door, and I was relieved to see Hubert standing there

"Ah, sorry sir, I'll be back later" he bowed as he tried to leave

"Not so fast Hubert." I stoped him as I got out of Elizabeth's grasp

"What did you need?"

"I was sent to inform you that your father wishes to speak with you sir," I nodded relieved that I would be able to get away from Elizabeth

"Tell him I'll be there in a few."

"Of course sire" he bowed as he walked down the hall

"Who was that?" A whine came from the annoying woman next to me

"My personal butler my lady but I'm afraid I must go, as my father is waiting." I said as I quickly walked away from her

In my fathers office I can see my mother talking to Elizabeth's parents about but I ignored as as I spoke with my father

"You needed me father?"

"Yes sit down Billiam."

"So as you may know miss Elizabeth's family is quite wealthy and are also our business partner," he started, as I nodded he continued.

"So we think it would be best for both families if you two where to be wedded at the age of 19"I stared at him in anger and disbelief

"No."

"What?" The whole room looked at me

"I said no. I will not be marrying her."

"And why not?" Trying not the shout

"Because I don't Like Elizabeth like that I see her as a friend. And that's it." I said looking him in the eyes

"But Elizabeth loves you" Elizabeth's father cuts in

"I want the best for her, and I don't want her to have a love less marriage." I honestly couldn't care any less about her future or love life I just don't want to be apart of it!

"And I don't want her to think that it's her fault because I don't love her so I humbly decline this offer"

"But we need a heir to take over the family after you!" My mother yelled

"Give me 3 years until I'm 19 if I don't have someone by then, I'll marry miss Elizabeth."

"I guess that can be arranged..." her mother nodded looking at her father

"Fine..." he nodded

"You have 3 year Billiam, you may leave." My father dismissed me, I gave a little bow before I left the room.

Now I just need to find a partner.... Shouldn't be too hard right?

Sam you dumb idiot. If you think we are going to replace you then you really should reconsider part taking in competitive math because that's for smart people! We love you and we will shout it from the nearest rooftop, don't you dare forget that, dumbass...
