There isn't much dialogue right now since I'm still introducing the story, as the story gets deeper and realty sets in for Henry there will be more dialogue. There will be a lot of heartbreak for both Henry and Anne because Henry is still Henry and Anne…well she will slowly start coming out of her shell
I take Anne out into the snow filled gardens, she is wrapped up in a grey and white fur coat along with a fur hat and fur muff. Her laughter fills the once silent and abandoned gardens. The snow fell gently around us, little bits of snow sticking to her almost black hair. Her brandy eyes twinkled and her cheeks and nose were left rosy by the cold wind that past us ever so often.
"Anne I must talk to you about something." I say as we come to a stop in middle of the grounds.
"What is it Henry?" She stands in front of me as she burrows under her furs, I run my hands soothingly up and down her forearms.
"The Court is moving to Windsor Castle for Christmas Tide and I was hoping you would come with us?" Her eyes widen before she starts to laugh gently.
"Henry I always planned on coming to Windsor Castle with you. You needn't worry about that, I will follow you wherever you go Henry." Joy filled me as I gathered her in my arms, her muff fell to the ground with a 'poof' as it hit the snow. She wrapped her arms around my neck and hugged me close, I pulled away slightly and leaned down pressing a nose to her red nose before gently kissing her lips.
When we pulled apart she grabbed onto the warm hat placed on my head and giggled before running off, her white-grey coat swishing behind her. I let out a hearty laugh before running after her. Her black hair whipped behind her as I slowly caught up with her. I picked her up around her thin waist and gently swung her body around. Her laughs filling the silent gardens as she leaned her head back against my chest. When I finally set her down she grasped my hair and tugged me forward placing a fierce kiss on my lips as my hands possessively grabbed her waist holding her close to me as the snow fell around us, wrapping us in a cold, white blanket of pure snow.

"Papa, Papa!" I quickly turn from the dancing courtiers and see my darling Mary running towards me, her governess trailing after her. I quickly get out of my seat and pick up my darling and hold her close to me. I finally set her down after placing a kiss on her cheek which she giggles at, she is dressed in a mint green gown with a white bonnet which had beautiful white pearls.
"How are you my Darling?"
"I'm well Papa. Mama said that you are moving, is that true Papa?" I smile at her before crouching down in front of her and grasping her tiny hands.
"Every season the whole court packs up and we travel to a new, beautiful palace. We are going to Windsor Castle for Christmas Tide."
"Will I be with you and Mama during Christmas Tide?" I smile at her before kissing her hands.
"Yes you will my Pearl." I hesitate for a second before looking into her clear blue eyes.
"Pearl, I have someone I would like you to meet."
"Who is it Papa?" I stand before grasping her hands, I lead us down to the dancing and common area where I spot Anne talking with Lady Madge and Lady Nan. She is dressed in a beautiful red and gold gown with gold hanging off her quarter length sleeves, a gold chained necklace with pearls and a spiky gold diadem.
When the ladies see me they drop into a low curtsey before standing and mumbling "Your Majesty, Princess." I shot a smile at Anne and she gently dismisses Lady Madge and Lady Nan. She turns to me before looking down and smiling gently at Mary, who blushed and hid behind my leg slightly.
"Mary I would like for you to meet my friend, Lady Anne Boleyn." Mary waves gently before grasping my pant leg and tugging which made me drop down to her level where she cupped her hand over my ear.
"She's so pretty, Papa." I let out a booming laugh before picking up Mary and kissing her cheeks. She turns to Anne and finally speaks.
"Lady Anne can I see your necklace?"
"Why of course Princess Mary." Anne then unhooks the necklace and gently hooks it around Mary's neck. It's much bigger compared to her small neck and chest, but as she plays with the extravagant, tear drop pearls she turns to Anne.
"Lady Anne this is very beautiful."
"Princess Mary, you may keep it…think of it as an early Christmas present." I stare at Anne with wonder knowing the necklace had been the last thing her mother had left her. Mary let out a giggle.
"Thank you Lady Anne, you are very pretty."
"Why thank you Princess, but I must say your beauty rivals mine." Mary blushed before laughing and hid her head in the crook of my neck.
Later that night I began to look for Mary, but I could see her nowhere. I began to panic when I suddenly saw Anne playfully spinning her around as they danced in the center of the room. There laughter echoed throughout the room as Anne playfully picked her up and held her to her side and spun them around. Mary threw her head back and let out loud, adorable giggles. A smile lit up my face for the rest of the night as I saw how well they got along also as I watched Anne and Mary I could imagine Anne playing in the gardens with our future children, dancing with them and holding them close, peppering their round, rosy cheeks with kisses.
~H.R.T~
That night as Anne and I sat alone in my rooms by the fire a nagging question ate at me before I finally couldn't help it anymore.
"Anne would you be willing to have children with me…when you're ready of course." She looked over at me as the fire illuminated half of her beautiful face.
"Yes I am Henry, when I'm ready and the time is right…I'd love to have children with you." I smile at her and grasp her hands between mine and kiss them before leaning over and kissing her sweetly on the lips. The fire crackled in front of us and as we pulled apart I rested a hand against her cheek before leaning forward and deepening the kiss, our heavy breathes and the crackling of the fire.
