From that day on she went to his cottage everyday. For months they laughed, cried, and yell at each other but nothing could seperate their love. Luke knew she was the one and wanted to share his life with her. He always had the thought of what if she doesn't feel the same but always talked himself out of it. One day Abigail was talking to her parents before going to the cottage to see Luke. Her parents gave her a rather big shock. "Hello Mother, Hello Father." She kissed them on the cheek she always did. "I'll be in the garden again today, I'm learning how to plant flowers this afternoon." She smiled hoping they wounldn't notice she told them that every week. She turned and started walking out thinking she was safe. Just as she opened the door her Mother spoke. "Oh Abigail don't forget we are going to the village tomorrow." Abigail stopped dead in her tracks and turned around. "What would we want to go to the village for?" Abigail said trying to hold back her fear. "We have to look at the Old Shannon land, the people have been hounding us for months." Her Father said. Abigail turned and walked out of their chamber scared. What if Luke came up to her? What if someone from the village notices it's her? All of these thoughts consumed her as she walked to Luke's cottage. When she got there she saw Luke laying down on his bed sleeping. Abigail took her cloak off and sat on the edge of the bed. She stared at him, he was so peaceful, like an angel. Luke then woke up and smiled up at her. "Why didn't you wake me?" Luke asked "You looked so peaceful." She smiled but she still was worried. "What's wrong? You seem upset." "My parents just told me that we are going to the Old Shannon land tomorrow." "What's the matter with that?" "What if someone from the village notices me?!" "They won't, don't worry so much." Luke set up and kissed her forehead and rubbed her arm with his hand. She then laid next to him and felt safe. She spent the whole day there as she has done every other day. She even helped him feed his sheep that he has on his land. She was happy and didn't think she would be. She had to leave him before her parents knew she was gone so she kissed him goodbye and told him she would see him tomorrow. She run back to the palace and then return to her bedroom. The next morning she had to wear her fancy dress to fit the look of a Princess. Her parents hurried her because she took her time hoping they would just leave her. They sent her maids in and got her dressed. This did not please Abigail one bit. They got into the carriage and started to the village. Her parents waved out the windows but she just sat there hoping no one would see her. They arrived at the Old Shannon land and got out. She thanked the Lord above that no one was there. Her parents did what they came to do and were ready to go back into the carriage. All of a sudden all of the villagers came to the Old Shannon land and started talking to her parents. She thought they were going to yell at them but they were very civil. Abigail backed away from all the villagers happy none of them were talking to her. Then all of a sudden a hand goes infront of her eyes. "Guess who." The voice behind her said. "I have no idea who this could be" She said jokingly "Guess." "Could it be, Luke?" He took his hand away and turned her around. She smiled and held onto his hands. She looked back at her parents and didn't even see there faces. Luke looked as well. "Let's go to my cottage." He said. "Oh I don't know, Luke, my parents might see us." "They will never know they arn't even looking for you. I have something I want to ask you." "Well alright" Abigail looks back one last time and starts running to the cottage with Luke. Little does she know her Father saw them two running off together. When they reach the cottage they close the door behind them and started kissing each other like they havn't seen each other for years. Luke then stops. "Wait I want to ask you something." Luke said "What is it?" Luke pulls out a ring and gets down on his knee. Abigail's eyes light up with shock. "Abigail, I love you so much and couldn't see my life without you. My darling, will you marry me?" Abigail's mouth drops and she began to cry. "Of course I will!" Luke puts the ring on her finger. "This was my Grandmother's, I hope you like it, it's not as fancy as your used to." "No I love it." They look each other in the eyes and then start kissing as if there were no tomorrow. Luke picks her up and lays her down the bed and gets on top of her. They are still kissing and they start taking each others clothes off. One peice at a time. Just when it was getting very serious and very romantic there was a pound on the door. They both looked at the door frightened. Before they could do anything her Father busted through the door and saw them two totally unclothed together. "GUARDS!" Her Father said with such anger. The guards came in and grabbed Luke from her and took him outside. Abigail got up and wrapped a blanket around her. She ran outside to find the guards beating on Luke. "STOP! NO YOUR HURTING HIM! STOP IT!" Abigail screamed. She cried and fell to the floor. Her Father threw her clothes at her and told her to get dressed. Abigail sat there awhile untill they took Luke away. She then went into the cottage and put her clothes on. She came out and went right into the carriage. She couldn't look at her Father or even talk to him. He got in and sighed. "Abigail, I will not tell your Mother about this. He will be banished from the village forever and you will never see him again." Her Father said so clamly without raising his voice. "No! You can't do that! Father I love him!" "You don't know what love is. You will marry a Prince of mine and your Mothers choice. And you will no longer go into the village." Abigail sat there and cried the whole way to the palace. She couldn't talk to her Father and planned on not talking to him ever again. She was so upset with her Father that she couldn't even see that it hurt him so. She knew her Father wanted the best for her but keeping her from her one true love was to much. She ran to her room and slammed the door behind her. "He never pays attention to me any other time! And then when I'm in the arms of my sweet, sweet Luke he wants to take him away from me. If he would of never found out about Luke he wouldn't have a problem with it! Why does he insist of making my life the way he wish his life was?!" Abigail laid down on her bed and once again as so long ago, cried herself to sleep. While Abigail was crying Luke was being held in the dungeon. His arms were tied up on the wall and his legs chained to the floor. He just stood there unable to move wishing he could see his beloved. When all of a sudden her Father was standing right infront him. "I want you to understand that I only want the best for my daughter. She is my one and only child and I love her with all my heart. This is why you must never see her again. You will be let go before the sun goes up while she is sleeping. You are to walk away as far as your legs can take you. You will NEVER return back here again or you will be killed." Luke says nothing, he just stared at the King as if he didn't hear a word he said. "Do you understand me Lad?" The King said "No I don't, you love her, and want the best for her but when she loves another you deny her the right." "Only because you are not a Prince. I have nothing against you besides the fact that you forced yourself onto my daughter. As I said before she is my only child. She will take the thrown someday so she needs to marry a Prince, not a peasant. Now get your rest, you'll need it." Luke didn't want his rest but he slept anyway. He didn't want any harm brought to Abigail so he did as the King told him. He left the village and walked as far as he could. But he knew one day he'd return
