may 15th,1815.

In the halls of Aubrey hall,the noise pouring out from the ballroom into the quiet hall,you walk beside your best friend,Eloise bridgerton.

The air is tense with silence,no one speaking as you two walk,until Eloise finally breaks the silence.

“How could you?” She asks quietly,her words laced with a mixture of hurt and anger. “Colin is my brother!” she exclaims. “And you-you are my best friend and now you will be my sister in law!”

“Not to mention he is 25!*twenty five!*And you-you are only 18!”
