Catie while jousting did let her hair grow as well as her affection towards Nathaniel. She loved him dear. Finally after 6 months of waiting her hair grew long enough for her to pass as a girl again. She had it done so it was up in two buns like her mom except with strands hanging down in a perfect spiral. Her hair was perfect so no man could resist her. She put on a long red dress with black trim and a red and black shawl. When she realized the shawl wasn't good enough for her she left it and put on her finest shoes. Many men wanted to speak to her or hear her name, but she had her mind set on one man.

Catie walked down the street acting as if she knew everyone for of course her father was a knight. When Nathaniel caught eye of this beauty he almost died. Her ice blue eyes would make any man freeze. If anyone worked as hard as she did in order to recieve a more perfect reward it was her father. All good things must come to an end when Will saw Catie he almost killed her. "Catlyn Thatcher where have you been?"

"Paris." Catlyn exclaimed in her most convincing voice.

"Really?" Will said not convinced

" No I went to Luxemborge with Zackery and Oric."

"Why?"

"Because I wanted to get out you treat me like a little girl I am almost 19 dad so treat me like it!" Before Will could say any thing Catie walked off towards Nathaniel and passed him crying. Nathaniel spotted Will and approached him.

"Why did you make such a lovely young women cry?"

"She is 19 and thinks she is old enough to take care of herself."

"Oh but good sir she surely is capable."

"Nathaniel you are Adhemar's son right?"

"Yes why?"

"Because I don't want you near my daughter she deserves better." At that Will turned around and walked off leaving Nathaniel to find his eye candy.

"I have never seen you before are you new?"

"Excuse me I am a knight's daughter." Catie replied not looking back.

"And I a Count's son, but that isn't why everyone should know me." Nathaniel said with a smile arousing. Catie now could feel the smile and turned around to see her biggest love right before her.

" Oh I am sorry I am just mad because I am treated like a little kid."

" Well how old are you?"

"19"

"Same here my father said you weren't good enough for me and your father said you deserve better so shall we be rebels?"

"You don't even know my name."

"Well may I choose a name for you or do you already have one?"

"I am Catiliyan Jocelyn Maria Thatcher, and you?"

"Nathaniel Johnsmay Francias Avangues."

"Wow well my friends call me Catie or Catlyn if I am in trouble."

"Well my friends call m Nathaniel."

"Cool shall we be off?"

"Ok why not lets have fun and get to know each other ." Nathaniel said in his finest french accent making Catie blush and think twice about being 'friends'.
