"I overheard Patrick and Cordelia talking about Tatiana" Melody said, as she and her aunt talked in Katherine's chambers

"Why would they be talking about Tatiana?" Katherine asked

"Apparently, Patrick accidentally brought her up to Matthew" Melody replied "He was comparing the way that Matthew looks at Lady Rosalina to the way he used to look at Tatiana"

"I assume that Matthew got angry?"

Melody nodded. "Got away from Patrick as quickly as he could" she said "Practically yelled at him, which wasn't good depending on who overheard the conversation besides me"

"We can't allow the queen or her family to find out about Tatiana and how the mention of her name affects Matthew" Katherine said "They would most likely investigate and then use that information to make Matthew insane and make him do something stupid"

Melody nodded. "But, how can we know if anyone else overheard?"

"We're going to have to keep our ears open" Katherine said, looking into the fire burning in the fireplace "Have you heard when the Boleyn's trial is?"

Melody shook her head. "Cordelia is going to try and find out from Charles" she replied "But, it's going to be after Olivia and Patrick's wedding"

Katherine nodded. "So soon" she said "Good. Very good"

"Does Uncle Henry know?"

"I doubt it" Katherine said "No one wants to bring it up. No one wants him to question Matthew about it. No one wants to be questioned about it. It would only being us pain"

"Will he ever know?"

Katherine sighed. "I don't know" she said "Maybe. I guess it depends on Matthew. Because, I know for a fact that none of us are going to say anything"

"Do we have flowers? What about dresses, jewelry?" Olivia said, not taking a breath "Is Mark going to play music? Of course he is, what am I saying?"

"Olivia!" Cordelia practically yelled "Stop!"

Olivia turned to look at Jane and Cordelia. Mary and Rosalina just walked into Cordelia's chambers – which had become Olivia's wedding planning room – as Cordelia had yelled. "What?"

"You're talking too fast to understand" Jane said, with a chuckle "Sit down and relax"

"How?" Olivia asked, as Cordelia and Jane pushed her into a seat "I'm getting married! Married!"

"And, you're excited!" Rosalina said, with a smile "Don't worry. Everything's going to be fine"

The girls loved how easily Rosalina fit in with them. It was like she was destined to be their friend and part of their family.

"How do I know I'm making the right decision?" Olivia said

"Because you are" Mary said, placing a hand on Olivia's shoulder "Now, there's nothing to be worried about. We've got everything covered. All you have to do is show up in that pretty white dress and smile"

Olivia smiled. "What would I do without you guys?"

"Probably go insane" Cordelia replied "But, fortunately, we won't let that happen to you"

Olivia laughed.

"Now, are you going to be ok?" Jane said "Can you speak without speaking so fast that we can't hear you?"

Olivia smiled. "I think so" she said "Now, you know that I want all of you guys to be on the altar as my bridesmaids' right? Along with Melody and Katherine"

"Even me?" Rosalina asked

"Of course!" Olivia said "That is, if you want to be"

"I would be honored" Rosalina said

Olivia smiled. "I better go and see what the hall looks like"

"No!" Mary said "I told you. Don't worry about that"

"Besides, we want to surprise you" Jane said

"But, we can assure you that it looks amazing" Cordelia said

Olivia let out a sigh. "I'm a prisoner in here, aren't I?"

"Pretty much" Rosalina said "But, we can allow you some visitors, everyone but your fiancé, that is"

"Great" Olivia said "I'm being held captive by my best friends!"

"What are friends for?" Jane said, with a smile

The day finally arrived. It was the day of Patrick and Olivia's wedding. April 29, 1536.

The whole castle was busy with activity. Henry kept going in between Patrick's chambers and the hall where the wedding was to be held. Charles kept going in between Cordelia's chambers and the hall to meet up with Henry. The fact that Henry and Charles seemed nervous made Cordelia laugh – on the inside – to no end.

"Cordelia" Matthew said, walking into his sister's chambers "Do you have the little basket of flowers for Elizabeth to carry down the aisle?"

"Um…" Cordelia said, quickly looking around the room "Ah! Yes. Where is she?"

"With Mary and Lady Rosalina in Mary's chambers" Matthew replied

"Not with the queen?" Jane said, with a hint of a smile

"No" Matthew replied, smiling back at her "The queen is very busy getting ready to take her place next to Father as 'step-mother of the groom'"

"At least she's not causing us any problems" Olivia yelled, from another part of the room

"That's definitely a good thing" Matthew replied "Alright. See you guys on the altar!"

Cordelia and Jane smiled and waved as Matthew left with the basket of flowers.

"Guys! Help! I can't get my hair to stay!"

Cordelia and Jane almost rolled their eyes as they headed to Olivia. "I thought that I told you to not touch your hair?" Cordelia said

&&&&&

Patrick was getting anxious as he stood in front of the priest and waited for Olivia to join him. Only 5 more minutes until he was a married man. 5 more minutes.

Henry and Anne were sitting in two chairs on the left side of Patrick. Catherine Brandon was sitting near them since, after all, she was mother of the bride. She was so glad that Olivia had finally let her secret be known. When she had asked her daughter as to why she didn't want to tell anyone, Olivia had never really given her an answer. But, when Olivia finally did tell Catherine why she kept it a secret, Catherine completely understood.

Catherine had been sad that she hardly ever got to see her daughter, except for the once in a while occasions where she went to the castle for some parties. She was both happy and sad that Charles spent so much time at court. It gave her the chance to still be able to talk to Olivia through letters. But, now that Olivia was marrying Patrick, Catherine was going to make it a point to visit the castle more often.

Edmund was sitting close to his brother and sister-in law, waiting for his sister to join him. Mark was waiting for the cue from Charles as to when to start playing. Matthew was standing next to Patrick, on the right side.

"Everything's going to be fine" Matthew whispered to his brother "Don't worry"

Patrick quickly looked at his brother as music began to play. "Oh God!" he said "Here we go!"

Matthew laughed. "Don't worry. Olivia's an amazing girl. You made a good decision"

Patrick nodded as they turned. Everyone "awed" as Elizabeth came walking down the aisle, sprinkling flower petals on the ground. Patrick and Matthew smiled and laughed. Elizabeth giggled and ran up to her brothers, putting her arms around their legs. Patrick and Matthew smiled down at their little sister, as Henry came over and pulled Elizabeth into his arms.

"Look, Elizabeth" Henry said, pointing back down the aisle, as he returned to his seat "Your sisters are coming!"

Elizabeth rested her head on Henry's shoulder as they watched Olivia's bridesmaids make their way down the aisle. Jane and Rosalina were standing next to each other, carrying bouquets of flowers and smiling as they reached the aisle and took their seats to the left of Patrick, near Henry, Elizabeth, and Anne. Melody and Katherine followed, sitting close to Edmund, Jane and Rosalina.

"Delia!" Elizabeth exclaimed when she saw her sisters "Mary!"

Mary and Cordelia were also smiling as they made their way down the aisle. Patrick winked at his sisters as they walked by. Cordelia smiled as she went and stood next to Patrick in the maid-of-honor's position and saw Jane take Elizabeth out of Henry's arms and had her sit on her lap, much to Anne's dismay.

"Jane, where's Olivia?" Elizabeth whispered

"She's coming" Jane whispered back

"She'll be here soon, Elizabeth" Mary said, with a smile "Look!"

"That's our cue, Father" Olivia whispered, as Mary took her seat and Cordelia took her place near the altar "It's time"

"I'm so proud of you, Olivia" Charles said, kissing his daughter on her forehead "You are so beautiful"

"Thank you, Father"

"I love you, Olivia" Charles said "With all my heart"

"I love you too, Father" Olivia said

Charles smiled as he and Olivia started down the aisle. As they did, everyone stood around them.

"Olivia!" Elizabeth exclaimed, waving

"Shh!" Mary said, with a chuckle "We have to be quiet"

"Quiet?" Elizabeth said

"We can cheer after, ok?" Jane said, as Elizabeth put her head on Jane's shoulder

"Ok" Elizabeth replied

Jane and Mary smiled when they heard Henry chuckle. They sat as Olivia reached the altar and Charles went to sit next to Catherine.

"We are gathered here today" the priest began "To witness the marriage of Prince Patrick Tudor of England and the Lady Olivia Brandon"

Patrick and Olivia looked at each other and smiled.

"Prince Patrick, do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?" the priest asked "To have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?"

Patrick nodded. "I do"

"Lady Olivia" the priest continued "Do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?"

Olivia smiled. "I do"

"If anyone has any reason why these two should not be wed" the priest said "Let them speak now, or forever hold their peace"

No one spoke. Henry and Charles looked at each other and smiled.

"The rings?"

Olivia turned to Cordelia and Patrick turned to Matthew. Once they got their rings, Patrick and Olivia slipped them on each other's fingers.

"I now pronounce you man and wife" the priest said

Olivia and Patrick smiled and looked at each other.

"I give you" the priest said, with a smile "Prince Patrick Tudor of England and his wife, Princess Olivia Brandon Tudor"

Everyone around them cheered. Patrick and Olivia smiled as they turned to their family and friends. Matthew and Cordelia were cheering the loudest. Rosalina, Melody, and Mary were cheering and clapping. Charles, Henry, Anne, Edmund, Katherine, and Jane were just clapping and smiling. Elizabeth was clapping to the best of her ability, being in Jane's arms, and was laughing.


Sorry I haven't updated in a while! I've been really busy!

Ok, so I am making it so that Charles and Catherine were married at an earlier age, so that Olivia could be their daughter. Just making that clear.

And, I looked it up, I believe that if a woman marries a prince, she becomes a princess by marriage. If I found information that was mistaken, I apologize! :)

Hope that you like the chapter!
