Will POV
After me and Isabel came back from the waterfall we suddenly noticed that something was different,
"Hey John, has something happened?" I ask after seeing John walk by,
"Aye, Matt and David brought two women over, Robin knows them, think I heard him call the younger one Marion" he says,
"Marion?" asks Isabel, who looks at John surprised,
"You know her?" I ask, looking over at Isabel,
"She's the kings cousin I think, Robin, Azem, Duncan and I went to where she lived after we found Robins father at the Loxley castle" she says, I nod slowly at this,
The three of us walked further into the camp,
"So Isabel, had any revelations recently?" asks John, I look over at him, and then to Isabel to find her blushing,
"Well…yes actually, but why don't you ask Will while I go up to my hut and get changed out of these" she says, but just as she leaves she grins at me and I can't help but smile back,
"Well?" asks John, I smile at widely,
"I told her I love her, and she said the same. Then I asked her if I could court her, and she said yes" I say, with this he smiles widely and slaps me on the back,
"Well done lad" he says whilst smiling,
"How's Fanny and the baby?" I ask, as we continue to walk along,
"The babe is due any day now, can't wait to see them" he says I smile and slap him on the back, then begin to climb the ladder to right to get up to my hut so I can get out of these wet clothes.
Isabel POV
I finally got changed into some black leather trousers I made myself by sewing the sides together so they'd fit me better and into a shirt that I tie a string around my waist. I pull my boots up and come out of my hutch to see Robin and Marion walking towards my tree, I quickly climb down.
"Hey Robin" I say, just as they approach me,
"Isabel, you remember Marion right?" he asks, I smile at Marion who I see looking at me confused,
"I do but Marion doesn't remember me, Marion last you saw Robin he stole three horses with Azem, Duncan and a cloaked man, that was me, Azem thought it safe for me to hide my identity" I say, she looks at me with surprise and then smiles,
"Nice to finally meet you" she says, I smile back,
"Where are you two off to?" I ask,
"We're just going to see if the food will be ready for dinner, Marion and Sarah her hand maid are joining us" says Robin, I smile at this and wave bye as I walk over to where Johns wife Fanny is, since more or less everyone knows that I'm good with medicine, John and Fanny asked me to be their mid-wife, and I of course accepted, thankful for the experience I've had with helping to give birth to babies.
"Hey Fanny, how are you today?" I ask, as I walk into her hutch, because of her being heavily pregnant they made her one on the ground level instead of in the trees.
"Alright, but I can't seem to be able to get up at all today, and I'm rather warm and thirsty" she says. I smile at this and bring a jug of water over and pour some in the cup beside her bed and hand her the drink.
Whilst she drinks I check her temperature with the back of my hand, she is rather warm, but nothing to suggest her being ill, and she has been sweating but I can help to get her to cool down by just giving a wash.
"Have you had any pain at all Fanny?" I ask, taking the cup away from her when I see that she's finished.
"Just a few kicks from the little one, he'll be a strong one" she says smiling, I smile back at this and nod in agreement.
For the next hour we talk whilst I've been wiping sweat away and helping her to eat some food and drink more.
"Well from what I can see Fanny, your due to have your baby very soon" I say, she smiles at this and nods,
"Have some sleep now, I'll make sure John brings you some food for dinner" I say, again she nods and I help her get comfortable so she can sleep well.
When I leave the tent I see everybody start to light fires for us to be able to see tonight whilst dining.
"For the fairest maiden in all the land"
I turn around to find Will holding a red rose out to me, I smile widely at this and take the rose to smell,
"Thank you good sir" I say to him while still smiling he bows at this causing me to giggle,
"Hows Fanny?" he asks, I smile,
"Shes doing fine, if I had to say, within three to four days she'll have a new born baby" I say, he nods at this,
"So will you be joining me to dinner tonight?" he asks,
"Don't I always?" I say smiling which he smiles and laughs at which causes me to laugh also.
"Alright then, well until tonight my lady" and he then takes me free hand and kiss's the top of my hand and walks in a different direction to where I'm going.
