Under The Chestnut Tree

Aldrich smirked mischievously at Elizabeth's words.

He then opened his mouth to say; 

"Are you really eager to give me anything I ask?" his words irked her out in the way that he said it. 

She swallowed. 

"Your highness, my question was-"

"I got what your question was, Elizabeth." he paused. 

"In any case, I actually did come here for something different," he then stated. 

Elizabeth began to muse about his possible reasons for coming and why he was taking so long to officially state his purpose. By this time, Aldrich had regained his former walking pace. With no cause to still stay standing, Lizzie began her walk again. Beside him. 

"You know... Some days I wonder what it is about you... " he dragged his words. 

"Some days I get what it is. Other days I do not!"

Elizabeth stopped walking once he muttered those twisted words. 

Aldrich noticed and stopped as well. He then turned to look at her.
