yay another update, and heaps of reviews. I love it.
On the train, Ella could feel her heart pounding so hard she felt it might beat right out of her chest. She hadn't realised how nervous she might feel, well after the general happiness had worn off. But it had come, and she couldn't help but feel slightly scared by the whole thing.
Taking a deep breath, she focused her mind on the view form the window. And thinking about that, helped to push the thoughts from her mind, after all it had to all go well. Ella truly believed this, everything was meant to turn out well.
After awhile, the sites started to pass by in daze. Ella could feel her eyes slowly start to close, and it didn't take long, until she was in light slumber.
The dream she had was quite pleasant. It was a day when she was roughly eleven, and her mother had taken for a picnic, which Ella had loved more than anything. It was so vivid, that it had brought a smile to Ella's face.
And this carried on through the duration of the train ride. All the way to the moment in which the train stopped, and Ella jerked awake. Slightly surprised by the fact that she was in fact there. She grabbed up what she could find of her things, and stood wiping the sleep from her eyes.
For this trip, she had brought her servant Whinnie with her. She looked around and caught the girl picking up some of Ella's bags and then waiting for Ella herself to move.
When Ella had finally caught up to her, the girl gave her a nervous smile, which Ella returned, feeling the nervous feelings coming back, and rushing through her system. She tried to tell herself to calm down, but her nerves did not seem to listen. So instead she opted to ignore them, and put on a clam and collected expression.
Ella knew for a fact, that Rhett's aunt had indeed sent someone to meet them at the station. So Ella wasn't too worried, but she did hate to wait. Sometimes she tended to be rather impatient. Which was a trait that had on numerous occasions caused her to act unladylike.
Though this had mostly been in the presence of her mother, so noone was offended. Actually Scarlett had just merely laughed it off, as it was nothing at all.
Ella liked thinking about the times when her mother laughed, it was always such a nice thing to remember, and they were the good memories. Actually Ella had suppressed all the bad memories of her mother, so that it was sometimes hard to believe that there was even such things' existing.
While Ella had been thinking, it seemed that a carriage had arrived to take them to Rhett's aunts house. Ella looked up at it, and noticed just how grand it appeared. It brought a smile to her face. A smile that didn't leave all the way through the streets of the little town, up until the moment it stopped out the front of a beautiful house.
The sheer elegancy of it, made Ella freeze in wonderment. Her whole face contorted into shock. She had never seen in her life, a house that was as beautiful as this. And then to top it all of, in the doorway, Ella could make out Rhett.
He stood there with a smile, which had Ella smiling back. Then within only an instant, she was walking up the stairs, and greeting Rhett with a hug. Even if this was quite improper of her, she could not help it. Her emotions more often then not, got away with her.
Pulling away from Rhett, her face was beaming, making even the more beautiful.
"Did you have a good trip?" Rhett asked, opening the door for Ella to enter through.
"Yes, it was rather tiring though." Ella said shortly, her smile still in place.
"Well of course, the trip was quite long. Now Ella just wait here a moment, I will go get my Aunt." And with that eh left the room.
Ella took this opportunity to get a proper look at he surroundings. She found that the main theme of the room was white. And it was decorated most elegantly, everything seemingly put in a place for the purpose of the design. It really was amazing to the eye, and every time Ella looked at new part of the room, she found some new to marvel at in wonderment.
This was until; she heard two sets of footsteps heading towards the room. And within a moment, in entered Rhett, and an elegantly dressed woman, who had to have been his Aunt Caroline.
Looking over the woman, she noticed that she had grey hair, but in way it made her more elegant. Ella never thought it possible, but the woman seemed to be a person who became grander with age.
And when the woman looked at Ella, a smile adorned her face.
"You must be Miss Ella Kennedy." Ella nodded and stuck out her hand.
" I am, and may I just say, that your house is so beautiful." Rhett's aunt smiled.
"Well I do try dear. But now that we are acquainted perhaps you would like some tea."
Ella gave her consent, and then they were off into one of the drawing rooms, were Ella sat and talked to the woman.
She found it pleasant, and it really put her mind at ease.
