Nathaniel POV
I watched William drive off with Elizabeth. This man looks interesting. Would be nice to find out who he really is.
I took a sip from my wine. Just then Jesse came.
" Jesse" I called.
" Yes sir." He answered.
" let's dig up a little dirt...on that guy." I said sipping more of my wine.
" Yes sir." He said before leaving.
This is going to be interesting.
I smirk at that thought.

One year ago...
" Love? Is that all you really want?" I asked June. Sliding a ring through her finger.
" Wow,it's pretty." I commented.
She stared at the ring for a while.
" Yes." She said answering my first question.

" Did you come to watch or to sympathize?" She asked me. Her voice shaking. " Both" I smile. " If we had heard the song until the end,it would have been better.
