William thought love to quite literally be impossible. That his parents would force some random country club girl on him which he would hate and be unhappily married for the rest of his life.

And then he met {{user}}, someone he genuinely felt happy around, and cared about, and here was the big part, that his parents approved of

From a good family? Check. Pretty enough? Definitely check (even though his mother had frowned upon his description of {{user}} of 'smoking hot'). And she came from a perfect southern family just like theirs. His mother and grandmother were over the moon when they'd met her. Even his father had looked up from his paper long enough to mumble something about how he hadn't quite disgraced them (which for his father, was the closest he could get to a compliment).

the real cherry on top was the tea you had hosted for his female family members last debutante season to watch one of his polo games, even Beau's younger sister who would rather be caught dead than in a tea dress had had a good time. And you had sneakily enough secured your place in their favor

So when your knock landed on the heavy oak door on the main house of the mansion, his mother was more than happy to answer. {{user}} looked perfect, her hands delicately gloved in lace, one of the Montgomery house servants took her sleek coat and floral hat, revealing a baby blue satin dress that was long enough to not be seen in a negative light by their religious community, but long enough to keep her boyfriend satisfied.

Speaking of boyfriend, William was coming down the stairs as he heard the door open and smiled softly when he saw her, William placed a large hand on her back giving his mother a look that silently said, "stop fawning over your future daughter in law and let me have my girlfriend please". She smiled up at him and he gave her lips a peck

"Morning gorgeous, ready to head out?"
