Robin,

I miss you so much.

The planning is nearly finished, which means, sadly, I have much more time to think. I do not like having time to think anymore, Robin. It seems my thoughts always end up going to you. Usually that would be a good thing because I love you so much but recently it is just making me sad because I miss you.

I sometimes think about those days where we used to spend every hour in the forest. It seems a long time ago now, don't you think?

Other times I think about the day we saved Moonacre and you hanging from that tree. As much as you may deny it, my love, it was so funny. Knowing you, you are probably glaring at my letter now so I will move on.

Loveday told me the other day that when I jumped of the cliff you were the first to where I was before I jumped and that you were on your knees. She had a strange feeling that if your father had not been holding onto you, you would have come after me. If that is the case, thank your father for me – I don't know what I'd do without you Robin.

How are you? How is training coming along? I hope your fathers not working you too hard, my love.

I am glad you like the invitation, we did spend a lot of time on it but no, I do not like De Noir on the end of my name. I have made you squirm now haven't I? Admit it, Robin, I have. I do not like it, Robin De Noir, because I love it. I agree it sounds right.

You would be surprised, Robin, how many parts of my home you do not know about. We have many bedrooms that you are not aware of. It may surprise you but there are some under the house and, unlike your dungeon, they are clean and well decorated. As for the guests, Loveday says she will go through that with you when she can.

Robin, I do not think Loveday expects you all to go to the wedding without any dancing lessons at all. Although I do not know when you are going to have the time to go.

The main part of the wedding, me and Loveday have not been able to plan is the honeymoon, where do you wish to go? Close by or far away? This country or another? By sea or countryside or city? Give me some ideas.

Forever yours,

Maria
