It had been three weeks since Rhett's heart had been stolen by the small green eyed little girl.

"Damn." Rhett growled, slamming his fist on the hard oak desk.

Truth be told, Rhett hadn't been able to concentrate on anything since he had seen the little girl. Any of his thoughts were interrupted by thoughts of the child and another certain green eyed woman. He hated himself for thinking of this.

"Rhett, darling do you…" Anne trailed off as she entered the study. "What happened?" She asked looking at all the scattered papers.

"Nothing dear, just some business I have to take care of." Rhett answered leading Anne out of the room.

"Oh, now what was I about to say, oh yes, can we stay for lunch before we go back to Dunmore Landing? Anne asked as she and Rhett walked into the parlor.

For the past month they had been remodeling Dunmore Landing and in the duration of the remodeling Rhett and Anne stayed in Rhett's mother's home. Rhett knew Anne liked staying with his mother, in the city and all. She didn't have much to do at Dunmore Landing seeing as how she didn't like to get dirty outside or go riding. Rhett though, loved the country's atmosphere and would rather be there than the city in which the Old Guard ruled any old day.

"I'm afraid we must get going if we want to be there before dark." Rhett said. He looked into her pleading eyes and gave in.

"Alright, you win. We can stay for lunch, besides I have to take some things to the bank anyway." Rhett smiled, patting his inside coat pocket.

"Thank you, darling." Anne said sweetly, but politely. Anne never really showed her affection, even in there most intimate moments. She always held the most lady like qualities, no matter what.

Rhett walked out the door headed for the bank and observed the warm gay sun. He decided to walk to the bank instead of taking a carriage. He walked briskly to the bank and deposited his business. He causally took his time returning back to his mother's home, he looked at the things for sell in the windows of the neatly kept shops. He came to one window that had a stunning emerald necklace with matching earrings that were large and expensive looking.

"Why they would make any lady shutter to even think about wearing." Rhett thought. "There was one person he knew that would though, one person that would love to wear such an ostentatious piece of jewelry." Rhett thought, bringing a grin to his face. Although his grin was quickly wiped away.

"Damn." Rhett thought. "Even with her far away she still captured his thoughts." "Well damn her, damn him, damn everything." All he wanted to know was why she was in his thoughts now. Just out of the blue he began thinking of her again.

Rhett soon found himself back to his mother's. He threw the cigar he had been dragging on down to the ground and twisted his foot on it a few times to put it out.

"Rhett darling, you're just in time for dinner." Eleanor Butler replied.

"Well I have perfect timing then, don't I?" Rhett said, kissing his mother's cheek.

Anne walked up to him and waited for a kiss as well, but to her dismay, Rhett kissed her on the cheek as he did his mother. Anne said nothing of this, just simply went to her seat at the table. The three talked quietly as they began their meal.

"All packed Anne?" Rhett asked after the three were finished eating.

"I believe so. There are a few things I need to get together." Anne said excusing herself and walking up to the bedroom.

"So Rhett," Mrs. Butler began, "You…"

"Miz' Eleanor, yous got some mail Ma'am." Lawrence, the coachman said, handing Mrs. Butler the letters.

"Oh Rhett do you mind?" Eleanor asked signaling to the letters.

"No mother not at all." Rhett replied lighting a cigar.

"Oh it's from Pauline and Eulalie Robillard. I've been keeping in touch with them for some time now." Mrs. Butler said to Rhett.

Rhett nodded acting as if he was listening.

"They say the weather's nice in Savanna…and oh…they say there great niece is ill. Yes with typhoid. Oh they say this is the child that was named for her grandmother, Ellen. You met Ellen Robillard didn't you Rhett? Oh and that is the same thing Ellen died from, during the war."

Eleanor Butler rambled on more about her letter, but Rhett didn't hear a word of it. The wheels were turning in his head.

"Ella. It had to be Ella, she was named for her grandmother, oh it was Ella. Why didn't anyone tell him about this? No matter, there was no time. He had to get to Ella. She was sick at Tara. Maybe even…no no. He would get there in time, he had to.

"Mother?" Rhett interrupted in a mad rush.

"I must pack; I have some unexpected business to attend to."

Rhett rushed upstairs past Anne, who was coming down. In almost 5 minutes Rhett was back downstairs with a small suitcase and a wad of money in which he was tucking in his inside coat pocket.

"I'm sorry my dear, I must go. I will contact you as soon as I can." Rhett said kissing Anne's cheek and leaving abruptly. Leaving the two women standing there confused and dumbfounded.

Rhett quickly got a cab and made his way to the train station where he bought a ticket and boarded the train.

Rhett sat down and impatiently waited for the train to depart.
