Lord Francis might as well be sitting inside the carriage instead of riding his horse, Olivia thought. For much of the journey Sophia had had the window down, her betrothed riding alongside talking with her.

It was a good thing that the day was glorious and the open window necessary for their very survival.

Twice, Olivia had noted, Lord Francis reached across to touch Sophia's hand as it rested on the window.

That was before she closed her eyes.

It made her heart turn over to see the love of those two for each other. She yearned to urge them to hold on to their love, not to let even the strongest tempest shake it. She wanted to warn them not to set each other on pedestals, not to expect perfection just because they were in love. She wanted to tell them to allow for human frailty. She was desperately afraid that they were too much in love.

"She is sleeping," Sophia said softly. "You do not need to keep on doing that, Francis, thank you very much."

"It is no trouble at all, Soph," he said cheerfully. "How do you keep your skin so soft?" And he chuckled for no apparent reason.
