One moment, Kate was confused and looking around, and the next the Viscount surged forward and 'moved' her out of the way. "Have you lots your wits?!" She asked, turning to look at him engage in what could only be described as a child-like battle with the bee before he frozen, while holding the area she assumed he was stung at.
Kate stood still as well, as she wasn't sure what was happening. The moment grew in silent length for a short moment that felt much longer then it was. She had heard of some afraid of such animals, but she had not expected a man such as Anthony Bridgerton to be such. She spoke slowly, trying to figure out what was happening here. "Lord Bridgerton, are you well?" She asked stepping closer toward him, in slow steps.
Simple words, but deeper meaning. She had accused him of much in their short history but none of it would have lead to to believe that he held such a fear. Or would behave in such a way. Normally she would have snapped out a sassy reply however this time she was both confused, and . . . concerned. Because 'are you well' wasn't meant as a normal insult but an honest question in honest concern for both his body--and his strange mental state.

Kate did not even realize he had moved closer. She only saw him leaving her side to find a woman and end up naked and hugging! "I am NOT---" She begin to tell him she was not a woman of loos morals and here to entrained herself, but then she stopped. While she could not imagine ever letting a strange man do that--her pride was hurt that he didn't think she COULD be here for that. Or well, maybe he was thinking she could and thinking it silly.
"I was unaware of the type of party I was invited too, but now that I am here I might indulge!" She countered, stepping closer to him to dare him to call her out of it. If he thought her a hypocrite then if he dare say anything toward her choice then he too would become one. "Maybe I will find out what the brings men sniffing around so often that they cannot control themselves. I had not made plans toward it, but why waste the chance to see why men take pride in being rakes?"
Stepping one last step closer, Kate leaned forward to finish off her words. "Perhaps you'd like to make recommendations?"

There was much happening in this moment that Kate knew better then to let begin, for it would only hurt them both when it had to end. She could imagine how they could contuine this if they could not be together.
Yet Anthony did not seem to mind. His mouth made her feel the wetness between her thighs, and she both loved and hated it. She felt warm everywhere, and his hands . . . his hand cupped her breast and it both eased some of the ache and made it worse. "I normally think of you." She admitted in a breathless whisper after he told her she should not think of anything. Yet she did think. She thought of him, and how it felt. What she wanted to do to him in return.
His next question made her eyes open, and she looked at him. Touched herself? Given herself pleasure? The idea of telling him what surprising, and almost forbidden on her lips. Rather then answer, she tried one last time to save them both from stopping and being left feeling needy, and aching. Even though it was the last thing she wanted.
"I hardly think that would ease you in any way, if I touched myself." She told him, wondering what he was hinting to with this. Her hand reached for his face. "Have you done this?" Would he need to do this? Would . . . Would let her see? It would be worth the ache to see.

He was going to kiss her. Anthony Bridgerton was going to kiss her. Kate felt herself leaning closer to him, her eyes slowly beginning to close--and then he stepped back and asked her to remain still. Opening her eyes she saw the bee flying around. She felt disappointed and confused. Looking around she wondered if someone was coming closer to them.
When Kate saw no one, she looked back at Anthony who was still while the bee flew closer. "I do not understand." she admitted in a slow voice. Turning to look up and then turning the other way to look around her, she then looked back at him. Why should she not move? At first she assumed they were caught but no other persons were around. Did . . . did he mean the bee?

What. If, He. Were.
Kate felt her belly open, and sink. It made her heart beat feel like each beat hurt, and her whole body went warm, . . . or hot--with rage! "You are such a rake, Lord Bridgerton!" She snapped, drawing her shoulders tighter. Normally she would have snapped something more witty and meant to strike harder but the only thing she could think of right now was that he was here to . . . to some of the things she had seen with a woman he didn't know and then go and at arrogant and smug around her and her sister!
Marching toward him she stopped near and and bit out her words that sounded angry to hide her hurt. "How do you live these two lives? The gentlemen and the rake?" She wanted to leave now! This party had been shocking to her, but now she didn't want to stay here. Didn't want to see HIM finding someone and doing something like they were doing down there. To see him prove Lady Whistledown right. "Go then! Do let my presence stop you!" These words were the last she wanted to say, but nor did she want to stand here and look at him.

He claimed he was the smart one, as she was the obstacle one had to over come. Kate knew that the idea that Edwaina had to get approval from her wasn't in complete seriousness but she took the idea to heart none the less. She had not wanted her sister to get her head turned by a charming rake and be left unhappy in her life for it. She wanted her sister to make a good match.
Yet, in effort to keep this one away from her sister, she had let him turn her head, and more. "And what does a rake intend to do with such an obstacle in his way?" There was never any competition between her and her sister but Kate was coming to enjoy and crave her time with Anthony. She wasn't sure why he wished--or had wished--or maybe still did wish? to marry her sister. It left her wanting to spend the time she could with him, and wondering what this meant.
Her question wasn't meant to be deep. It wasn't meant to ask more then continue the teasing between them and jest toward their rocky beginnings. However, once spoken her mind begin to think of more.

There was something in his face that just told Kate he was thinking of something, and his words surprised her but made her belly tighten with eagerness as well. "Am I to lie here and think of England?" She teased, knowing that was what some Mamas told their daughters. Yet her mind lost that thought as he moved his hand to bunch her dress.
He wasn't in jest! He intended to ravage her! His breath at her ear, the deep timber of his voice, and his touch made her body beg for her to try and do it. Yet she fear that she would be unable to just lie still under his skilled touch. "I fear you have mistaken my ability to remain still while you hand is on me."
This time there was a breathless regret in her voice instead of a tease, because she did wish she could embrace him this way. She wanted to feel close to him in body as well as heart. To feel his come undone from her own touch. Yet she knew little more then he had taught her, and she wasn't sure how it would work if she could not wrap her leg around his hips.

Be brave, be brave. Anthony bragged in as if he owened the place--the arrogance! And demanded to know why she was here! A question she too wondered, as this was no where near what she expected. However as her choice was to 'let him save her' or 'hold her ground, she knew which one she WANTED to do and which one she NEEDED to so. . . . and, sadly, which one came naturally when faced with a angry Anthony.
Lifting her hands to her hips, she rested her palms there--feeling a bit more like herself in the room with no one here to watch her or see her. "I am a guest! Are you such, or did you ignore the needed invite to crash?" She knew which one it was, but nor was she going to admit to knowing that this was not a place Anthony went for his . . . visiting. "Are you seeking a woman here?" The words came out without warning and she wanted to take them back in the instant! She had not meant to let it out. Had not meant to hint that she might care.

Kate was walking with Anthony toward the area they would play in. She was still trying to deal with the fact that he was all but trapped with her as a wife now, and she felt guilty for it. Pushing these thoughts to the side she found a corner of her lips twitching when he told her that it she had been lucky. "I believe most call that skill, but if you wish to call your playing luck I shall not stop you." She barbed back, letting the challenge of the game get her in the mood to win!
Anthony pulled out the mallets and then jumped for his prized one. "I shall best you with the same one you used." She informed him reaching for the same lightered colored mallet that he used during their game, and then smiled up at him at the memory of him using it. "When I do, then I shall get to use your mallet without protest at the next family game." Her prize for winning. "And should you decide to begin showing me these skills that brought such arrogance, then you may claim a prize too."

Anthony laid down with his head propped up on his hand, and there was something so intimate at seeing him like this, and she could only watch him for a moment. It wasn't every day that someone saw the viscount so at ease, and she liked that she was only of the few people he relaxed around. Reaching over she ran her fingers--the same ones he had just kissed--through his thick hair. How she loved his man. Which somehow was still a surprise to her. He had truly slipped under her defenses.
"I think you find challenge in things that most do not." She teased. Yet then he spoke of the waiting of the week for newlyweds and how it could not happen. "So I have been told. Yet I find you alive and well right here." Though from the rumors (mostly told by his family in hidden barbs toward him) he wasn't handling it well.
She knew that once she would have been afraid he would seek out a mistress since she was unable to help him, but Kate had come to trust in the man she loved, and held no worry that he would do so. "I fear that you will have to wait longer. I cannot imagine how you would be able to bed your wife while I cannot move," Though, to be fair, her words were a challenge to him. She had a feeling that he might just be that creative.

He declaimed the baby a girl. He was certain of it. "So certain you have done it right this time?" She asked, raising her brows, and trying to bring a smile to his lips. Thought she was beginning to see that this would need a more direct approach then her teasing. Anthony was not himself, and she wanted his birthday one of joy--not fear of his own death.
"You sound very excited over the idea, Anthony." She said softly. Her words might have been a joke, but her tone was soft and telling. "You do not seem yourself today, and I cannot help but to wonder if it is about tomorrow's date?" Glancing over at the boys to make sure they were playing and not hearing this, Kate turned toward her husband.
"This should be a time for joy for you and our family. Why is it not so?" She knew. He would know that she knew. He would know that she knew and was asking him to tell her again. She wanted him to say the words outload. Because when you said them, and heard them, then you could deal with him.

Kate had never held the attentions of a man like Anthony before. What first seemed like a callous rake who only wanted a pretty face and cared nothing about her sister--turned out to be something different. She tried not to, but Anthony was . . . . was fun to be around. She liked being around him. She . . . dare she admit it? Maybe when she was alone she'd admit it to herself, but currently all Kate wanted to do was be in the moment. Enjoy the moment!
"Hardly, I am only distracting the season's biggest rake out here, so she will be safe in there." Kate counted, though her voice was both a insult, and a playful jab all in one. More meant to poke fun of how they used to seeing each other--her the mother hen and him the fox she was keeping her chick away from. They no longer saw each other and thus.
Which was why she had let him lead them away from the ball, and further away from the lights and seeing eyes. She had known that they were leaving the ball but she had not raised a voice to halt it. Foolish perhaps, but she wanted to spent time with him. She wanted to be the one he saw . . . the only one he saw . . . if only for a shorten while.

Kate sat on the couch and let her fingers run over her belly of their thirds child. Her rakehell husband had once again given her the joy of a child, and while she might tease him, and annoy him over wanting a girl--and assure him that the boys where in fact his fault, so while she had done her job with the heir, he had not done his with a daughter. In truth, she was so grateful and in love with her sons that she would welcome another boy.
Anthony had been off all day, and Kate knew why. He came over and sat on the sofa beside her. It was almost natural to want to say something sharp (and loving) to him to jar him from the mood, and she even opened her lips to speak the words--but then paused. While she understood why he thought this, she never understood HOW he thought this. It seemed so odd to her, yet she knew he was hurting. Even if his mind was the cause.
"How rare to find ourselves in agreement," She teased him, reaching for his hand to rest over her belly. Mabe the babe would encourage him to been more cheerful. "This one kicks so much, I fear it's another son. You will have to try again." To give them a daughter. Though she was doubtful the would try for more and more. While he had come from a large family, she came come from a smaller one. Even now they were larger then her own. If she never got a daughter, then she would be happy with this love.

Kate's leg often ached, but it was nothing toward the boredom of having so little to do. She was used to being independent, and doing much on her own. She wasn't used to asking for aid every time she needed to do a little task, or even something as small as a getting her needle or book. Her leg would heal in time, but she doubted that her memories of this would. Both the accident, and the aftermath.
The doctor checked on her leg, which thankfully was aching at the moment, and delivered promising news. She just might be able to get up sooner rather then later! Which was good for her--and for Anthony. She had always known he was a rake, but being on the receiving end of his attentions made her see just why. He enjoyed bedding. And to be fair--she did she. She understood now why they said it affected the moods.
Anthony came to sit beside her, and Kate grinned at him. "Or," She said in that tone he would know so well. The one that suggested she was about to disagree with him ((though now there was a strong hint of playfulness when in their ealy days there was only fire)). "If could be longer if my leg finds itself not resting." While her works said 'I plan to do nothing' her hand reached out for him, almost daring him to disagree with her as well in the same playful manner that was both new and comfortable.

He asked why she was certain she'd make him miserable and Kate almost laughed. However just as the emotion was about to shift her face, she realized he wasn't joking. Really? "No, there is no other that holds my heart." Ok, Kate wanted there to be someone, but there hadn't been anyone who she enjoyed talking too. Someone who didn't get annoyed by her outspokenness or opinions. Someone who didn't make her feel inferior. Romance was nice, but she hadn't found someone. She had even begin to suspect that she wouldn't. She was already a little older then men liked.
"Should you think you'd want a wife who will not meekly keep your house, but instead make her opinion known daily--and possibly in places you would wish otherwise." Meaning she would not keep silent when she had something to say, and it would not matter the place nor the topic. This wasn't a prized trait, and she wasn't sure if he would really would know what she meant. "I know our fathers dreamt of this union many years ago, but that was before they knew who'd we be. I feel that we could honor their idea as friends, and need not bind ourselves to strangers for the rest of our lives."
