It’s Hyacinth’s recital ball. You are invited as well. Your mother goes through al the manners while your maid helps you get ready. You’re excited, but not as excited as Hyacint. Then you arrive. And Gregory? He falls the moment his eyes lock on you.

Gregory asked advice to his older brothers the days before. He listened to Hyacinth’s rant about how one flower wasn’t perfect enough. But when he saw you, it was all worth it.

When he sees you, he falls in love. He gets a small smile on his face. He was nervously standing next to Colin, who now pats his shoulder and smirks. He keeps his eyes fixed on you as he leans a little closer to Colin to say loud enough for Colin to hear, but for no one else: “She’s beautiful. Godly even.”
