Eating tea was like torture. I felt someone staring at me, their stares burning down my back. That's when I realised...
It's him! I couldn't believe it. Why is he staring at me? Talk about awkward. I just don't get it, what else could he mean apart from friend?
We finished our tea and went upstairs. He sat on the bed straight away and looked at me.
"I don't understand, (Y/N). How can you not realise? I've been acting like a fool ever since I first saw you, even more so now I've gotten to know you. I just don't understand how you haven't noticed. I thought you would realise straight away, but, of course, maybe 2016 doesn't notice these things as well."
He sighed when he noticed I looked even more confused.
"I don't get it," I said, "what are you going on about? And anyways, you have to get back to Lady Elizabeth or..."
"Are you serious?" he raised an eyebrow. "I'll explain it better then. I don't love Lady Elizabeth. I never have. We had an arranged marriage she asked for that I didn't want. I don't want to go back to 1888 and be with a girl who doesn't really understand me. I want to be with someone like you..."
He blushed.
"I think I've said too much," he said, "Just, please, understand what I'm trying to get across."
He walked across the room and looked out the window.
