And why not?

Well to bad. I am talk to me. What happened?

I . . . Okay. I understand. I will support you.

Matthew is simply sitting in his study reading over an old letter. He looks sad as he folds the letter back up and locks it away. Moving to the window he sighs softly.

Hm? Oh. . I was just reading and old letter from. .well it doesn’t matter it was before I left a year ago. How are you Lucien?

Ah yes how is wedding planning going brother. You seem. .happy. The letter well its a long story and one I am not yet ready to tell I am afraid.

<He grinned and nodded his head.> I already assumed I was. One day I will take you up on that I promise. <He looked away for a moment.>

Always. <He chuckled and turned after his brother hit him on the back.> We should get Beau and Alistair and have a brotherly outing before you get married

<He chuckled and shook his head.> I did learn a thing or two while I was away in America. I may even be able to last longer than you and Alistair.

Invite him then I would love to see and experience these possibilities. <He laughed softly as a amused smile kick up the corners of his lips.>

Perfect! When should we do this then? I know the wedding will be upon us shortly.

Matheiu is currently sipping a much stronger drink than champagne while hanging in the back of the ballroom.

Wide eyed he looked over and smiled at the young woman. Nodding his head softly to her. “Indeed I am. Are you enjoying yourself m’lady?”

Matheiu is slightly bored while drinking

“Bout time you returned home Beau De Lesseps. Here I thought I was the only one that ran away.” He smirked before placing a hand on his brothers shoulder. “Good to have you home.”
