Chapter 1
"Class dismissed." Elizabeth said as she rang the cowbell Jack had given her.
She sat in her chair, behind her desk, and as usual Jack came walking in.
"Hello, Ms. Thatcher."
"Hello, Constable." She giggled and stood up. She walked up towards Jack and planted a kiss on his lips. Jack gladly cooperated.
Still holding each other, Jack said, "I was just at the mercantile. Someone sent a telegram for you."
"Oh. Can I see it?"
Jack handed her the telegram. As Elizabeth read it, her eyes widened.
"Is everything okay?" Jack asked, concerned.
"Um. Yes..maybe.. I don't know. It's Charles."
"Oh."
"Apparently he's coming to Hope Valley… and he has a surprise for me…? I don't entirely know what that means. Oh, and he still doesn't know of our engagement."
"Well I think that this is the perfect time to break it to him." He chuckled.
"Hopefully he takes it okay. I thought we were just friends, but he's been trying to court me since the day we were born. I've asked him to stop the last time I went to Hamilton, but I don't think he got the message."
"Well that ring on your finger will show him."
"Oh! I completely forgot! Didn't we have a date set for today?"
"Yes," he smiled. "we do. Shall we?"
Elizabeth put her arm on his, and they set out to Abigail's Cafe.
