Chapter 18: chapter 14 Christmas gift
The manor was always quiet and on holidays after my mom passed just made this place seem dead to me and lonely .
My father had always had a temper always and wasnt very nice to mom but he wasnt as bad as he is now . I miss the old days when mom hold me and sing and on holidays we'd string cranberry on thread and tlk abt her favorite flowers little snow bells even though it was cold and frozen they'd still grow and how one Christmas day a big blue Jay flew down to her and dropped a tiny pebble right infront with her .
Oh look at me I'm crying I think to myself wiping away at my tears .
" kathrine you ok ?" asked Bonnabell helping me get dressed for the day in my dark green gown.
" Yeah I'm ok" I say leaning over holding my floor mirror. " Just hurry up and tighten this corset please."
" yes , miss Katherine " Bonnabell said still looking a bit worried.
My father had a big breakfast meal set up this Christmas which was a little surprising but I'm sure its mainly due to Piggy being here and puppet. looking at the table a large ham potatos , steamed carrots, fruits and pastries all in the center of the table ready to be eaten.
" Viper. Good morning and merry Christmas " whispered pig in my ear.
jumping forward surprised by his sudden appearance with my hand on my breast from shock.
" Green suits your lovely pail skin and light Brown hair " he says stepping forward wrapping his arm around my waist with a devilish smile.
" let me go ! " I demand pushing at his chest at that moment I lost all my appetite .
" Sir Montague." Bonnabell piped up tapping him on the shoulder. " what do you want girl." Barked pig.
" the lord be in shortly, he wouldn't be happy with everyone standing. " she said with a worried expression. " Fine. " he said and finally let me go and stomped over to the table and sat down like a angry child placed in time out with his arms folded and pouting.
Shorty after puppet and my father came in and we all sat down at the table for breakfast.
during the whole meal my father bragged about his hunting in the woods and how he killed a monstrous hudge bear and how he has its fur as a carpet in his chambers and blah blah .
with satisfied with my little portion of fruits and a pastry I managed to eat through my upset stomach from earlier with the close encounter I'm just glad I managed to eat something.
" Father my I be excused ?" I ask hopping he'd let me go with him having a good time talking about hunting still.
" fine child ." said my father not even glancing at me and waved me off with his hand and continued to brag.
I quickly stand and take off out of the dining room and back into my room and grab a thick shaw and arm covers .
with my father distracted by mr pig and puppet this is my only chance to sneak out with all the maids busy keeping food and drink this morning thered be no one to stop me .
running as fast I can out the door and run in the direction I last seen Wyatt .
" Wyatt ! " I scream on the top of my lungs running deeper and deeper in the woods .
" Wyatt ! It me !." I yell now slowing down now that my legs are getting tired.
my breath in the cold air forming a small cloud around my face as I gasped trying to regain breath.
The forest was very quiet and the snow was almost blinding in the areas where the sun was coming through the trees as it was rising.
taking a deep breath i step forward and begin to walk . " Wyatt ! its Katherine!" I yell breaking the silence.
I hear tussling in the forest to my right and my heart jumps beating into hyperdrive.
Two deer suddenly run past me scaring me half to death and a small eep leaves my lips as I hug a tree to me .
" You ruined my breakfast love " said a mans voice behind me
My eye widen knowing who it was and I turn so fast I slip.
" Woo " Wyatt said as he caught me so I didnt land it the snow .
Looking up into his face hes has changed a little bit a new scar split the end of his right eyebrow and he had a full beard that gave him more of a wild man and his cloths was a tan indian cloths with fur.
" I've missed you" I say crying into his chest and hugging him to me .
" I'm sorry Katherine . " wyatt said hugging me back with his chin resting on the top on my head. " Come with me the cabin is a bit too far but I have a tiny hut I've built for....." he pause looking down at me and his face twisted into q very sad expression.
" did you do that to be closer to me ?" I quickly asked hopping I wasnt jumping into conclusions. " Yes ." he says closing his eyes and pushed me back out of our hug and turned his back to me.
We just stood there in silence and both of us had our minds rushing with thoughts .
" I moved closer cause i could hear your screams all the way to my cottage . I wasnt for sure at first I was hearing screams cause it was faint almost light like a quiet howl of the wend but in my heart I knew ." he said turning and punching the closest tree to him.
" Stop it " I say crying into his back and wrap my arms around his waist hugging him tight as I could to me . " With out thinking I turned and ran in the direction of your house I ran as fast as I could I didnt stop till I reached the line of the forest that opened into the clearing to your but I was too late. when I got there the two men helped your unconscious body inside ."
" Its ok Wyatt " I say rubbing his back now.
Wyatt was heavily breathing and shaking as anger was taking over.
" I wanted to run and save you right then and there but I was severally out numbered and a light brown colored maid and a well dressed blonde man was arguing in the door way stoping me from storming into the house."
Could that be Bonnabell and Montague ? what could they be fighting about thatd be more important than me?!
" Did you happen to hear what they was arguing about ? " I ask quickly
" No but before they went inside after you they exchanged a kiss and the maid ran into the house I guess after you."
Turning around Wyatt grabbed my arms stoping me from thinking any more about the possibility of Montague and Bonnabells romantic relationship.
" Come to my hut I made you a present ."
shutting my negative thoughts I let Wyatt lead me through the woods and we get to what looks like America Idian stile teepee but more of a squarish shape and it was covered in branches and furs wit a fire pit just on the outside of it. "come I side get you wormed up so you dont have frost bite if you dont already I'll get the fire started.
not arguing I crawl into the teepee hut thing and the whole ground was covered in furs and i fall down on them happy as can be now that i was finally with Wyatt .
few minutes later Wyatt poked his head into the hut teepee " do you like rabbit ?" Yeah I say a bit wary " good " he says crawling into the teepeehut pulling back a few furs and hands me a white fur hat and matching hand covers.
" they are beautiful! " I say quickly taking off my hand covers I had now with my new ones and put the fur hat on my head and it fit just right and covered my ears.
" Merry Christmas Katherine " says Wyatt and he quickly leans forward kissing me on the cheak.
