Setting: 15th Century Spain

A gathering was being held in court and everyone you knew was obviously going, since it was required. Slipping into the dress you were to wear, your ladies were giggling to themselves. Of course they were helping you to your dress, but they weren't usually giggling to themselves as they did so.

"What are you giggling about?"

Your ladies quickly silenced themselves and bowed their heads. "Nothing, My Lady."

You sighed and let your maids do their work. You were the youngest daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Seville, and you were in the age ripe for marriage.  Your father had been eyeing the court for suitable suitors for you, but there was no one you had thought you had wanted to marry. All of them seemed very...

Oh, you just couldn't find the words to describe it!

As you had finished getting ready, your ladies told you that the gathering had begun. You nodded obediently and went out of your room to find your father and mother. You managed to find them chatting with your older brother and his wife, and once they noticed you, you curtsied.

"Papa, mama." you said, bowing your head. You turned to your brother, and he smiled. "Ah, mi hermana. You look very beautiful tonight." he said, kissing the back of your palm. You rolled your eyes at him, as you were used to his flattering. You then turned to your brother's wife, and smiled at the jewel your brother had.

"Mi señorita, Buena tarde.." you greeted, and you were responded with a nod and smile. "Now that we are all here, let us enter the room, si?" Your father said, offering his elbow to your mother and glided to the room. Your brother and his wife followed, and you entered last with the company of your ladies.

The music was lively, and people were dancing. Your eyes glimmered at the sight of the wonderful dresses the other nobles were wearing, and your brother winked. "Don't get lost, dear sister." You nodded and then began to go about the room, finding some of your friends who were there.

The music changed and many of the men present were starting to find some ladies to dance with. Not wanting to be asked to dance, you fled to the windows and took a goblet of wine with you. You watched the dancing and flirting from there, and didn't notice a young man blending in with the crowd to get near you.

-change of view-

"Ah Antonio! Nice of you to join us, yes?"

Antonio's green eyes glittered in the candle light flickering in the room as he greeted the king with a bow. He smiled as he stood up straight. "Si, Su Majestad."

Looking through the crowd, Antonio saw some of the ladies of the court giggling and giving him looks. He shook them off quickly, knowing it was something seen every time. The brunette went beside the king's chair and sat there, asking one of the server boys to give him wine.

"What brings you back at court, Señor?" asked the king. "I was just thinking of re-visiting España before going back to the English court. Of course, I have nothing to expect there because of the king's decisions on the marriage." he answered briskly. He was already giddy have a good time.

"Of course, Antonio. Since you are the most important person needed in concluding the marriage." said the king gruffly. The conversation ended, and Antonio was up and about roaming around. He saw his friend Fernando and decided to go with him for a while.

Not until he saw a beautiful young lady going towards the windows.

He nudged Fernando at the shoulder, gaining his friend's attention. "Who is that beautiful lady by the windows?" Fernando looked over to the windows, and saw you silently drinking wine. "Mi amigo, I am not sure, but I heard that she is the daughter of the Duke of Seville."

Antonio laughed. "The Duke of Seville? Ah, he must be one of the favored ones!" Fernando nudged his friend on the elbow. "I think it's best if you don't try it on her, she IS finding a husband right now." Antonio pat his friend's back reassuringly before he left. "I'm looking for a wife, and I think I'd try my luck."

/Normal/

You drank from you cup of wine as you watched the dancing. Smiling a bit to yourself, you looked away and saw the night sky from the window. "It must be nice to have a husband..What could go wrong if you both love each other?" you said, sighing. A pat on your shoulder released you from you thoughts, and you turned to face a good-looking young man with olive green eyes.

"Hola señorita!" said the young man in front of you, his eyes glimmering under the candle light. You curtsied. "Buena tarde, señor Carriedo." you said as you lifted your gaze to the man, then to the cup of wine you were holding. The man named Carriedo smiled.

"You know me, señora?" he asked. You nodded, a smirk ghosting your lips. "Of course, señor. Everyone knows you in court, especially all the ladies." You look into his eyes, before finding your brother's line of view. Of course, he was busy chatting and flirting with other ladies.

The music once again changed into a very lively one, and people were starting dance again. Antonio smiled and bowed in front of you. "May we dance, señorita?" he asked, the words practically dripping from his mouth. You smile at his confidence and nodded. "Muy bien." He took your hand, and led you to the center where the other dancers were.

The women in the room gasped when they saw Antonio dancing with you, but you didn't mind. It might be nice to be the talk of court for some time.

While you were dancing, you catch the eye of your older brother, who was also dancing. He winked at you then turned to his wife, while you blushed. Your partner saw your blushing face and smiled. "I never caught your name, señora." he said as the both of you stepped for a turn. You glanced at him then closed your eyes.

"But you might know who I am, sir." you said as you twirled. Antonio chuckled. "Ah, then I will endure whatever happens to me if I knew your name, mi amor~" He caught you in his arms, and the both of you took steps away from each other.

"Very well señor, but first, let's see if you'll remember me." you said before you leaned in to kiss Antonio's lips, surprising the male. Before he was able to wrap his arms around your waist, you took away your lips from his and left him in the center surprised and hungrily wanting for more.
ah, finally!
