The next ball only Jack and him went. Blackburn had stayed behind to take care of the ship. Will looked for a girl for a while but did not find her anywhere. He was getting frustrated and went for a walk in the garden but why could he not get her out of his mind.
Will did not notice girl leaning over the balcony looking out over the land but She noticed him. She stared at him a seconded and then noticed it was the same boy from the night before. She waited a seconded as he paced and then stopped.
"Something troubling you?" the girl spoke out of the dark.
Bill looked up seeing her as the moonlight just hit her hair,"Yes, you could say that my lady." He walked over to her. He stared at her a second as she still wear the white mask but how her hair was more down and her gown was a green color. Will took her hand and kissed it,"You look even more beautiful then the night before."
"You remember me?" she looked out onto the lands again.
"How can one forget you," the way she was acting made him wonder about her but it was all mer flirting. "Why are you out here?"
"Why are you?" she looked at him with innocent eyes but then went back to her looking around. There was silence and it was the first time Will did not know what to say. "The dancing is putting a great deal onto my feet. An old injury from horseback riding."
"What happen?"
She looked at him a second,"I was riding along the trails in the woods. I was only about ten at the time and a racoon ran out in front of my horse, the horse got spooked and through me back," she looked at him as he was listening to her every word. "I hurt my knee and his not been the same since."
"Very sorry to hear about that," Will told her as he showed her a scare he had got from a sword fight once. She was amazed to hear he knows how to sword fight. She was just amazed with him. "But why..." the girl was going to go on but stopped.
"What is wrong?" Will noticed she turned silent.
"Nothing, something just caught my mind," she looked at him and smiled. Will did not push the issue either. They stared at each other a seconded as her eyes just sparkled. Then the bells rang in the ball and there was clapping. She finally blinked and looked over at the hall. She then stepped out of the glance and started walking away.
Will blinked a second and then looked at her walking away. "Wait!" he ran after her as she continued to walk. "Why are you going?"
"I am sorry but I must go inside, I have been gone too long," she stared at him. "Just come and find me for a dance later?" he grapped her arm gently.
"Please stay," he asked her but her face seemed to sadden.
"I must go but please find me later," she walked off into the hall. Will waited a seconded and then headed in himself. He had a drink to try to pass the time but it did not work. He watched the people dancing for a while before looking for her. After a while he finally caught a sight of her. He walked through the crowd as she was dancing with a man that look quite scruff, and strong,"May I cut in?"
The man stared at me a second but I did not show any weakness to him. "Please, Duke Freeman, you have had me for two dances," the girl spoke up. The man seemed angry.
"I will be back later, lady," he disappeared through the crowds. Will took her hand on his and held her waist feeling her terrible as they danced.
"What is wrong?" Will came a little closer to her.
"Nothing," she shock it from her. "You seemed not to wait very long," then she caught what she was saying.
"How can one wait," Will could not believe that came out of his mouth. From the began to dance it felt like there was no tomorrow. He was memorized by her every word. Until he noticed Duke Freeman was staring at him with his hand on his sides and one placed upon his sword.
"That would be Duke Freeman, he owns a dark palace of a house about five miles from here. The man has looked the same since I could remember." The girl feels like there are evil eyes upon her. Will feels how her skin tighten up and her breathe quicken a little. Will moved his hand a little higher on her back to calm her down but it was not working. He was becoming very worried. The girl looked as the Duke was staring right at them,"You should go, the Duke has a short temper."
"Will you be alright? You have been silent." Will did not want to leave her if she was in harms way.
"Oh yes, I am" she looked at Will in his brown eyes. The moment caught her off guard and made her smiled.
"But before I leave may I have your name?"
The girl waited a second,"Meredith, some people call me Merry. But do not tell anyone." Her voice was peaceful but still had fear.
"I will not," he smiled as he held her hand close to his chest. He gave her hand a kiss. "Mine is William, my lady." He pulled her close to whisper in her ear. "May I met you without that mask?"
The girl could not help but smile to her-self . Will pulled away from her little seeing Duke Freemen making his way over. "The beast is coming.," she stared down a second and Will knew there was little time. "I can't..."
"Met me with the mask, please?" Will was begging her.
"Tomorrow when the moon is high, in the woods by the Tree of Albany. It is about a mile into the forest, just off the main trail to Jarewood. It is a big willow tree with an A marked in it" she told him just in time. "Farewell, sir."
"Good-evening," Will picked up another girl just for a half of dance and then left, dragged Jack out that was having to many drinks.
Will changed on the boat as his clothes smelt of her, the way she was, he could remember each and every curl in her hair and how they fell around her neck and shoulders. Will shock his head as he tried not to think of anything else with her, just her. But then he remembered that he had lied to her, he did not tell her what he was but was he crazy? She could yell he was pirate and get him thrown into jail.
