"Just leave 'er alone Simon. Let'er be a lil' eccentric if she wants" Jeromy sighed, tiered of Siman's constant picking on Carolina. Truth be told the country born Earl liked Carolina more then he wanted to admit
"I'm not trying to be mean, it's just a funny lookin' shirt"
Carolina was getting angrier and angrier. How dare he!? He had no right to criticize the way she dressed! at least she wasn't a walking billboard for Hollister! er I mean uh at least she didn't wear wight wigs and lace like a wanna be French man.
Concealing her feelings was never easy and it was clear to Theo that Carolina was seeing had an idea. An awful idea. The prince had a wonderful, awful idea. He smirked and giggled to himself (princes aren't really allowed to giggle) and said casually, laughter dancing in his eyes, " You know what Carolina, I think you should give Simon here a piece of your mind."
Carolina looked at him cautiously.
"Go ahead," Theo grinned leaning back in his chair "give it to him."
She let him have it.
"How dare you?!My mother My dear departed mother,God rest her sole, gave me this blouse! It's all I have left of her Do you like insulting Peoples dead parents sir? Is it something you find pleasure in?" Carolina turned on the water works, "Why would you mock my mother? Why?"
Both Simon and Jeramey looked uncomfortably at the door and Simon took a few steps back word towards the door.
"Uh yeah, I got, something I have to do... somewhere else." Jeramey mumbled as he inched closer to the door.
"Me too, I'm really sorry Carolina. I didn't mean to um, you know, insult your mom. I'll see ya later Theo."
With that they were gone. The door slamming behind them breaking the tension. Carolina wiped off the crocodile tears looking pleased with herself.
"Say doesn't your mom work in the stables? Doesn't she train the horses?" Theo asked, smiling wide.
Carolina looked shyly giving him a smile of her own,"Yes but Sir Simon doesn't need to know that. Maybe he'll think the next time he tries to a have a laugh at another's expense."
