It seems so long since she had been in the English court. Elizabeth was very nervous and excited all at the same time. She would finally see her brother Charles and her great friend Margaret. The only person who she was not exited to see was Henry. There past was a long and painful one and she didn't wish to reopen old wounds.

Ten years ago she was mealy a child. She was sent away to the French court by the cardinal Woolsey to make sure that I was not a distraction to his plans with the king and his new queen.

12 years ago….

Running though the long grass, feeling the freedom of the air and the clouds and they could played happily. All four of them still children in their harts but knew that it was only a matter of time to when their lives would change and that their responsibilities would take over.

'Charles catch me!' Elizabeth said as she was trying to run towards him with open arms. She loved her brother and thought that she could never live without him. Running towards him getting closer she stumbled over a loose rock on the ground and toppled over. Hearing the sounds of laughing she looked up to see both her brother and Henry standing there with smirks on their faces. Henry was at least trying not to laugh but Charles could not stand it and burst out uncontrolled.

Henry's father had always been kind to her family. Her father had died in the war and their mother shortly after that. The king had taken them in and given then all the luxuries that he gave his own children.

Still on the ground I looked to Henry and he held out his hand to her. Taking it she got off the ground and tired to wipe some of the dust off her dress. Charles still laughing Elizabeth decided that her older brother would get his and she pushed him down into the grass. Starting to laugh herself, Charles grabbed her by the hand as he went down and she did the same to Henry as they all toppled down into the dirt.

As they were all now playing on the ground their clothes ruined Elizabeth heard one of the servants calling their names in the distance. Knowing that they would get into trouble for getting dirty and bruised she didn't move. Waiting for the servant girl to come and find them Henry leaned over and whispered into her ear 'you my dear and my truest love'.
