- graceymanors6 years agoLegendChapter 1: Arriving at Gracey Manor:
10th of July, 1846.
https://i.postimg.cc/yxCtxxrF/Screenshot-75.jpg
It was a hot morning the day we arrived at Gracey Manor, Mamma
being the stubborn woman that she was, insisted that we leave early.
Nearly three days on a train, was enough to cause distress to the most
carefree of people.The skies were a deep blue and the sun burning hot,
as we walked up the cobblestone walkway to the old manor.Mamma said very
little until we approached the iron-cast doors.
Claire: Stand up straight and don't slouch Dear.We may be here to look
after the home while the owner is away, but we still want to make a good impression.
Cosette: Of course Mamma.
Claire: What a spectacular home.In my days, we only dreamed of living in such elegance.
Come along Cosette.
https://i.postimg.cc/QtTvj1S8/Screenshot-76.jpg
Mamma rang the door bell, and we waited patiently outside the old manor.A few moments
passed until a young lady opened the door slowly.She was quite young, perhaps a few years younger
than myself, but quite pretty.Judging from her mob cap and dress, I would say perhaps she's the maid?
April: Good morning, my name is April, I'm Mr Gracey's house keeper.And whom may I ask
are you?
Claire: My name is Claire Pontmercy, and this is my daughter, Cosette.
Mr.Gracey has called for us to look after his home.
April: Ah, yes.I do recall him mentioning something about young ladies
coming to the manor.He is in the library, if you'll follow me, I will escort you to him.
Claire That would be lovely.Cosette, come along dear.
https://i.postimg.cc/FKfBx3My/Screenshot-77.jpg
I gazed out toward the orchids that surrounded the manor.It was a lovely day,
but the summer heat proved to be too much for I to bear.
https://i.postimg.cc/L8QWfNb4/Screenshot-78.jpg
William: There must be something of great interest to have caught
the attention of a lovely lady such as yourself.
Caught off guard, I turned to quickly to find a young man standing before me.
He looked to be no more than 25, his hair was neatly pressed, and his jacket was nearly
perfect.I assumed this must be Mr. Gracey's son.
https://i.postimg.cc/SQcH5LJV/Screenshot-79.jpg
Cosette: I was just admiring the lovely orchids, surrounding your home.
They are very beautiful.
William: The home has sat here for many years, if I recall, I believe it was
my great-grandfather who planted the trees, in memory of my great-grandmother.
Cosette: That is a beautiful thought.
My mamma's voice interrupted our conversation; calling me to come inside.
I excused myself, and my way inside to the grand staircase.
https://i.postimg.cc/FHHq72Gn/Screenshot-81.jpg
George: It is a great relief to have found someone to watch over the home
and William while I'm gone.I love my son, but I do not think he is ready to run the home.
Claire: It is our pleasure, you have a beautiful home.And I understand, my daughter is
quite naive, when it comes to matters such as this.
https://i.postimg.cc/MKxg8cBw/Screenshot-82.jpg
Claire: Speaking of my daughter, here she is now.
George:And I see she has met my son, William.April
will give you a list along with the keys to help you all settle in.I must prepare
for my journey.I pray you will help as much as you can William?
William: I'll do my best, father.
A/N: I know Cosette's dress clips, but I'm willing to look past
it as I really liked it. - graceymanors6 years agoLegendhttps://i.postimg.cc/8C8bFmJ9/Screenshot-83.jpg
Shortly after Mr.Gracey departed,my mother had called for all of us to meet
in the library.I fear her true colors may soon surface.
Claire: I think we should start to reorganize the household.
We all have to pitch in to take care of this glorious household.William, I think
you should do the cooking.
April: Not to interupt, Mrs.Pontmercy, but that is what I'm here for.
Claire:: I think William needs to put in his fair share.We can't have him
expecting everything to be handed to him.
I was right.Here comes my mother's true personality, and poor William was
going to be the target.I felt bad for him, though I dare not talk against my mother.
https://i.postimg.cc/hvG8FC6z/Screenshot-84.jpg
Claire: And william, you should do the dusting dear, heaven knows it
hasn't seen a good cleaning in ages.And last but not least, the sweeping, polishing,
and miscellaneous household duties...I think you should do it as well.Any questions?
https://i.postimg.cc/G2dJK3jj/Screenshot-85.jpg
William: I have a question, if I may.
Claire: Yes dear?
William: I don't mean to be rude, but isn't this arrangement a little
lopsided?
I felt the need to voice my opinion.I enjoyed doing cooking and baking,
and wouldn't mind giving William and April a hand, but would my mother allow me?
We'll see.Before I could speak my mind, my mother had sent me to the conservatory..
Her way of getting rid of me before she showed her true colors.
https://i.postimg.cc/XqDfnf62/Screenshot-86.jpg
Claire: I have my sisters moving in with us, they will need a room.
I require that you move your things to the attic.
William: Doing chores and helping out, I don't mind.But to be moved
from my own space is where I draw the lines.
Claire: Is that so? Well, let me remind you, that if I send a letter to your
father about your behavior, you'll lose all rights to the home.We wouldn't want
that now would we?
William: I....but...no, we wouldn't.Fine, I'll move my belongings.
Claire: And please do change your clothing, we can't have you mixing with
my family.
I had to bite my tongue.My mother's wicked ways...always was her way.If she didn't
get what she wanted, she would punish those around her.Some days, I truly feared her...
But I feared that I would become her, if I spent too much time around her.
https://i.postimg.cc/wT750GDn/Screenshot-87.jpg
Claire: There.Now my family will tell who's in charge, and who isn't.
I require nothing from you at the moment.Dismissed.
After William left, I entered the room.I knew confronting her
wouldn't be easy, but I had to at least attempt to reason with her.
https://i.postimg.cc/mZdN3s1Q/Screenshot-88.jpg
Cosette: Mother, you know I love to bake and cook.Why not
allow myself to help out.This is William's home afterall?
Claire: No daughter of mine will be caught cleaning and cooking.
And if I see you attempting to help..we'll have to have a long discussion.
https://i.postimg.cc/qRwc5fbH/Screenshot-89.jpg
Claire: Do you understand?
Cosette: I understand.
I could feel that this will be a trying six months...I hope for everyone's sake it goes
by quickly. - graceymanors6 years agoLegendhttps://i.postimg.cc/7hsYgWtV/Screenshot-2.jpg
My mother had demanded that William make dinner.I offered my assistance, but she refused to allow
me anywhere near the kitchen.I felt for William, truly I did.But my hands were tied, there wasn't anything I could
at the moment.
William: Oh lord, I hope I did this right...
https://i.postimg.cc/26TzDtYD/Screenshot-3.jpg
He served us our dinner, but didn't sit down to eat.I found it rather odd, that mother was allowing April to join us
but not William.A few moments passed, when my mother entered the dining room; and approached William abruptly.
https://i.postimg.cc/bN5wr4tY/Screenshot-4.jpg
William: Mrs Pontmercy, a question if I may?
Claire: Yes, dear what is it?
William: I must know why you treat me which such content? I try to be kind
and understanding, but the kinder I am, the worse you treat me.
Claire: The answer is very simple my dear.Not only has nature been very kind to you,
but you have lived well off.Blessed with a sweet disposition, and a loving father.These are qualities
that are totally absent from myself.So to balance the scales of nature, which have been giving to you
and my own daughter, but unfair to myself; It is only right that I should treat you like dirt.Now, go
to your room.No supper for talking back.
Well, you had to give mother credit.At least she was honest with him.That is exactly why she treated
him poorly.She was jealous of his loving family, and his good personality.After my mother had fallen asleep,
I crept my way up the old stairs, making sure not to make one peep, for fear of waking her.I found William's
new room at the end, and tapped lightly.
https://i.postimg.cc/Pf2xsCfw/Screenshot-5.jpg
William: Who is it?
Cosette: Cosette, may I come in?
William: Of course, the door is open.
I walked into the dimly lit room, and took a quick look around.It must be so lonely being trapped
up here all by himself.I felt twice as guilty, than I did before.
https://i.postimg.cc/x1bTzgvv/Screenshot-6.jpg
William: Is there something I can help you with Cosette?
Cosette: I brought you some dinner, William.
William: Your mother has forbidden me to eat tonight.
Aren't you worried she'll get mad?
I laid the plate down on the table behind him, beckoning him to come
sit and eat.He was hesitant to do so, and rightly so, I'm sure he didn't trust me,
but I truly meant no harm.
https://i.postimg.cc/8CRpy5ns/Screenshot-7.jpg
Cosette: My mother is asleep, I made sure not to wake her.
Please, sit ad eat.She has no right to deny you food.
This is awfully kind of you.Thank you.
I watched him eat quickly.I couldn't decide if he ate fast, in fear of being caught, or
if he was truly that hungry.Something told me, it was a little bit of both.
https://i.postimg.cc/Dy0z27mY/Screenshot-8.jpg
William: Might I beg a question, if its not too personal.
Cosette: Of course you can, you need not fear me, William.I'm
not my mother.
William: That's precisely it.Are you sure, she's your mother? You're
both so very different, personality wise.
Cosette: I wondered and questioned that myself.I should probably leave
before I get us both into trouble.
I turn and walk for the door..
William: Good night, Cosette.
Cosette: Good night, William. - graceymanors6 years agoLegendhttps://i.postimg.cc/R0LDMnWK/Screenshot-11.jpg
Poor William was up at the crack of dawn, taking care of household chores.He wasn't allowed
to eat with us nor was he allowed to eat at all until all chores were completed.I found it odd that April,however
was treated like family...something bout her came off the wrong way.I may just be a bit paranoid, but her demeanor
left much to be desired.
https://i.postimg.cc/BbXYcYMB/Screenshot-12.jpg
Claire: Good morning, dear.I might I ask you to join me at the library
this afternoon in town?
April: I'd be happy to, Mrs. Pontmercy.
Claire: Please, call me Claire.I hope we will be good friends.
Odd right? So warm and open with miss April, but cold and hurtful toward William.
My mother had issues, and I feared they might rub off on me, I kept my distance
as best I could.
https://i.postimg.cc/pTV1yXj7/Screenshot-15.jpg
William: Was there something I could do for you Cosette?
Cosette: Yes, there is.I would like you to sit down and eat.I will
take care of the chores.
William: Your mother has forbid me to eat until all the cleaning is finished.
Cosette: My mother isn't here, William.She went with April into town.Now,
sit and eat.That's an order.XD
William: Yes, Ma'am.
Took a bit of persuading, but William finally caved and sat down to enjoy his breakfast.
https://i.postimg.cc/J72d48z6/Screenshot-17.jpg
I began on the chores.I truly didn't mind cleaning, in fact I enjoyed it.It kept me busy,
and out of trouble.
https://i.postimg.cc/T387gcmn/Screenshot-18.jpg
William: Cosette, what are you doing? That's my chore.
Cosette: Not today, I'm doing it.You sit and relax.
William: You'll get in trouble, I can't let you do that.At least let
me help.
Cosette: Alright,together than.
William and I worked swiftly to finish the house, before my mother returned.What
she didn't know, wouldn't hurt her, and it gave William a chance to relax.After cleaning,
I could feel that William wanted someone to talk to, so we spent a little time chatting..
He killed me with his humor.
https://i.postimg.cc/6QtM15M3/Screenshot-20.jpg
William: Why is a banker's clerk necessarily well informed?
Because he is always taking notes.
Cosette: I know its not lady like for me to laugh at this, but I can't
resit.
William: I think its very becoming for a young lady to laugh.
Cosette: My mother doesn't."Its not proper." She says.
William I mean no offense by this, but your mother is SNOUTBAND.
Cosette: William!
I couldn't help but die of laughter.He described my mother to a T.
A/N: SNOUTBAND
Someone who constantly interrupts a conversation, typically only to contradict or correct someone else. - graceymanors6 years agoLegendhttps://i.postimg.cc/ThMqkr6S/Screenshot-22.jpg
Claire: Come Dear, its time for your music lessons.
Cosette: Once a lass met a lad, you're a gentle one said she.
In my heart, I'd be glad if you loved me for me.You say your love is true,
and I hope that it will be.
https://i.postimg.cc/xjkw4nQy/Screenshot-23.jpg
Cosette: I'd be sure, if I knew that you loved me for me.Could I be
the one you're seeking,will I be the one you choose? Can you tell my heart is speaking,
my eyes will give you clues.
https://i.postimg.cc/VvbWBK3n/Screenshot-24.jpg
Cosette: What you see may be deceiving.Truth lies underneath
the skin.Hope will blossom by believing, the heart that lies within.
https://i.postimg.cc/3RqZvsb3/Screenshot-25.jpg
Cosette(In background): I'll be yours, together we shall always
be as one, if you loved me for me.
https://i.postimg.cc/VNDgYrqr/Screenshot-26.jpg
Cosette: Who can say where will go? Who can promise what will be?
But I'll stay by your side, if you loved me for me...If you loved me for me.
https://i.postimg.cc/Tw19hd0k/Screenshot-27.jpg
Claire: That will be enough for today.William!!! I need my hair brushed.
few minutes later....
https://i.postimg.cc/TYgZT0pK/Screenshot-31.jpg
William was too busy thinking about something else, he pulled Claire's hair
too hard, yanking some of it out.Claire sprinted to her feet and turned around.
https://i.postimg.cc/Z5mXnNdV/Screenshot-32.jpg
Wiliam: I'm sorry!
Claire: You clutz! Forget it.I'll do it myself, you worthless boy.
I made my way outside, to find William sulking near the gardens.I had to try and comfort him.
My mother's poor attitude was becoming increasingly and painfully worse.
https://i.postimg.cc/TPYSqXQb/Screenshot-34.jpg
Cosette: William, I'm sorry.She had no right to lay her hands on you.
William: Its not your fault.You didn't make her that way.
Cosette: Still, I feel bad.I'm gonna have to try and fix this.
https://i.postimg.cc/pdGSs116/Screenshot-35.jpg
William: Don't do that.She'll do the same to you.
Cosette: I'm not afraid of that.
William: I am.I don't want her hurting you Cosette. - graceymanors6 years agoLegendhttps://i.postimg.cc/tCFjj4Hb/Screenshot-37.jpg
I awoke late the next morning.By the time I had arrived at the breakfast table,
everyone(except for William) had eaten.He had already began on the household chores.
William: Cosette, forgive me for slacking on my chores.I know the home is a mess.
Cosette:William, relax.You do not need to apologize.In fact, you should sit and eat.
I will clean up this mess.
William: What about your mother?
Cosette: She and April are in town again today.
https://i.postimg.cc/mgwWPpD6/Screenshot-39.jpg
William: Cosette...Thank you, I mean it really.
Cosette: Its no trouble at all.Now sit and eat, you need food.
I gathered the bits and pieces of clothing that was flung around the house.My mother
was certainly sloppy lately.I wondered if she was being messy on purpose, causing more
work for William.
https://i.postimg.cc/sgyRDCVh/Screenshot-41.jpg
Cosette: I could use an escort to the park.Would you mind doing me the
favor? Of course, if you don't want to, I won't make you.
William: I'd be happy to, Cosette.You helped me after all.
William knew of the perfect spot to go and relax.I followed him through the heart of town.
Keeping an eye out for Mother.Who knew where she could be lurking.After a brisk walk, we
arrived in the gardens.
https://i.postimg.cc/RF2jkjsq/Screenshot-43.jpg
William If you don't mind me asking, where are your Aunts? I thought
your mother had mentioned her sisters.
Cosette: Sisters? My mother doesn't have any sisters that I'm aware of.
William: She said that is why I needed to vacate my room...
He was right.I vaguely remembered her mentioning sisters.But I know our family.
And I know she does not have any sisters.She must have lied to try and get rid of William.
https://i.postimg.cc/DzpVgW1r/Screenshot-44.jpg
Cosette: William, I'm sorry.It must have been a lie of hers to be rid
of you.I don't know of any other reason why she might tell you that.
William: Don't you worry about it.You did nothing wrong.
https://i.postimg.cc/vmNjnJdX/Screenshot-50.jpg
Cosette: Thank you for escorting me to the park William.
William: No, thank you for letting me leave the house.It gets a bit
tiring being cooped up all day.Its getting close to dinner.If you'll excuse me,
I should go prepare supper, before your mother comes home.
I watched William walk away in silence.My patience was running thin, and I was
about to let my mother know exactly what I thought of her.... - graceymanors6 years agoLegendThe next morning, I decided to have a word with April.I didn't trust her, nor did I like her.
She seemed to be ca hooting with my mother and I was determined to find out what.
https://i.postimg.cc/FRJk6gSN/Screenshot.jpg
Cosette: I don't know what you're up to April.But I will find out.
April: I haven't the foggiest idea what you're speaking of.
Cosette: Spending quality time with my mother.While she treats the heir to Mr.Gracey's
manor with such disdain.You're allowed to join us and eat meals with us.While William has to do
the job you were HIRED for.
April Aren't you a nosey little girl.Think what you will.But I am doing nothing of the sorts.
And for your information, I am not a SLAVE.I don't answer to people's beck and call.
Cosette: You were hired to do the job, you get paid for it.William lives here and you and my
mother are making him clean up after your sloppy ways.Some maid you are.You can't even clean a kitchen
properly.
I was furious, and stormed out of the room before April could defend herself.I stood by the window, looking out toward
the lake.William was outside with what appeared to be two horses...
https://i.postimg.cc/L6SgyP8F/Screenshot-3.jpg
William: What are you doing here? Claire will have my head if she finds out
you escaped.
https://i.postimg.cc/tCzZ8gsZ/Screenshot-4.jpg
Cosette: Horses! Where did they come from? They're beautiful.
William: I apologize, Cosette.They are my father's horses and they seemed
to have escaped the stalls again.I should return them before your mother finds out.
https://i.postimg.cc/g2kXpPhM/Screenshot-5.jpg
Cosette: Please don't take them back yet.They're gorgeous, I love
horses.But mother would never let me ride one.She says "Its not proper."
William: Well, Miss Proper isn't here.How about a ride?
Cosette: I would love to, but be warned.I haven't ridden before.
William: Then I'll teach you.
I grabbed the reins, and pulled myself up quickly.Apparently, I didn't do it right, as William
gave me the most curious look.
https://i.postimg.cc/9XZqtbVB/Screenshot-7.jpg
William: Cosette, it might be helpful if you turned to face forward.
Cosette: -blushes- Of course.I knew that.
https://i.postimg.cc/FKYYfgD3/Screenshot-9.jpg
William: We'll ride them back to my father's stables.We can't have
them here, not with your mother.I do apologize.
Cosette: Its quite alright.
We rode through town.Streets were usually quiet on a sunday afternoon.
We arrived shortly at the stables, but had to be quick.I knew Mother would
return home and I wanted to make sure we were back before she was....
back at the manor....
https://i.postimg.cc/3RpW1rMw/Screenshot-14.jpg
Claire: Well, well.Aren't we having fun? Strolling about town without
a care in the world.
Cosette: Mother, I asked him to escort me..
Claire: Cosette, silence!
My mother approached William aggressively, He braced for what he thought
would be a slap.
https://i.postimg.cc/Yq80byPQ/Screenshot-15.jpg
Claire: You have chores! Get to work.
https://i.postimg.cc/zGBBMFm6/Screenshot-17.jpg
Claire: And you running around with the servants like you haven't
worry in the world.
Cosette: You are so rude.William is not a servant.This is his home,
and you should be grateful that his father allowed you to stay here! You...
You're a real witch! You know that?! No wonder my father left you...He couldn't
stand being dictated by you.And I wish he'd taken me with him.
https://i.postimg.cc/BnV6GP46/Screenshot-18.jpg
Claire: You think you know best....the world is a cruel and wicked place Cosette.
In time, you'll learn that mother knows best.
https://i.postimg.cc/GpTp33mj/Screenshot-19.jpg
William: Cosette...I'm sorry.It was my fault, I shouldn't have gone out.
Forgive me, I didn't mean to get you into trouble.
Cosette: Its not you're fault at all.She's just a wicked lady.
William let go of my hand and left the room quickly....please don't do something you'll
regret.
https://i.postimg.cc/gJ92x9wb/Screenshot-20.jpg
Claire: I told you to go do your chores, Mr.Gracey.
William: Claire...I have bit my tongue and have taken your abuse these
past few months.I may allow you to control me, but you will not control Cosette like that.
I have a few things I would love to say to you, but being a decent person, I'm not going to waste
my breathe.
Claire: I see....There's only one way to deal with a nuisance like you..
few minutes later...
https://i.postimg.cc/3RgJpLp4/Screenshot-22.jpg
Claire: I will be hosting a ball tomorrow night.I can't have you attending
and trying to see my daughter.You won't cause me any grief in here...I'll release
you after the ball..Good night.
Claire slammed the door, leaving William alone in the dark and cold tomb.

William managed to dig his way through the walls, which lead to a road, a little
ways from the mansion.

Blue Fairy: Hello, William.You need not fear me, I'm the blue fairy.I'm here to help.
William: You can? How?
https://i.postimg.cc/fy3d22yz/Screenshot-4.jpg
Blue Fairy: You want to go to the ball yes? I can help you get there, just
this once.But after that, its up to you.
William: I would love to go, but I dare not disobey Claire.My father told
me to always respect a lady.
Blue Fairy: This can't be what your father had meant,baby.Now, you can't
go dressed like that can you?
https://i.postimg.cc/0y7Y1Bfr/Screenshot-7.jpg
https://i.postimg.cc/6QwdWfjc/Screenshot-8.jpg
William: Brrr.Mind warming me up a bit?
Blue Fairy: I'm afraid my magic is limited to cold., the rest of the night is up to you.
William: Thank you, Blue Fairy.
later at the ball....
https://i.postimg.cc/7hp2p3Jg/Screenshot-10.jpg
William arrived at the ballroom.He scouted the room looking for Cosette.
He spotted her in the back.He made his way toward her.
https://i.postimg.cc/WpKgFvYh/Screenshot-11.jpg
William: There must be something of great interest, for such a lovely
lady to be looking out the window.
Cosette: Oh, I'm sorry.I was just lost in thought.
William: I see..Anything I can do to help?
Cosette: Only if you can get rid of an wicked mother of mine.
William: How about a dance for now?
William smiled, pointing toward the dance floor.
https://i.postimg.cc/rFrW5P7g/Screenshot-12.jpg
William: Why is a coachman like the clouds?
Because he holds the reins.
Cosette: (laughing) I'm sorry, I shouldn't laugh.Mother says "Its not proper."
William: Your mother isn't here.And I find it becoming for a young lady to
laugh.
Something about this gentleman was familiar and I couldn't put my finger on it.
https://i.postimg.cc/W1cZ87vV/Screenshot-13.jpg
Cosette: What did you say?
William: I'm sorry.Was that too forward? Forgive me.
Cosette: Oh, no it wasn't.That was very sweet.
William: I hope this isn't too forward then..
Cosette: What?
https://i.postimg.cc/yNVZ4Yxr/Screenshot-15.jpg
https://i.postimg.cc/525CRF4C/Screenshot-14.jpg
Cosette: Not at all.
William: I'm glad..
Cosette: But I should return to my mother, before she gets furious with me.
William: Then allow me to bid you goodnight, Cosette.
https://i.postimg.cc/SKDzyFzQ/Screenshot-16.jpg
Cosette: What did you call me?
Without saying another word, the gentleman left.He knew my name...So it has
to be someone I know.It was going to bother me all night.I did not like mysteries,
they always worried me.
down in the tomb...
https://i.postimg.cc/C15n5PjG/Screenshot-17.jpg
William returned to the tomb, so he would not be caught.But he needed
to change his clothes...
William: Blue fairy...where are you?
He looked around the dark and damp room, hoping he she would appear.
https://i.postimg.cc/wvrymXVS/Screenshot-18.jpg
Blue Fairy: You called my name?
William: Yes...Could you please change me back, before Claire finds me.
Blue Fairy: I can do this for you, but your father wouldn't want you living like this
dear.
William: Please, for now I have to stay here.
Blue Fairy: Alright.
https://i.postimg.cc/sxZB9MH1/Screenshot-19.jpg
William: I have to remember your magic is frigid.
Blue Fairy: Yes, I do apologize for that.Farewell William.

Mother asked me to go release William so he could get to work on his chores.She kept him in there
to prevent him from attending to Ball.Her demeanor worsened with each passing day.
https://i.postimg.cc/cH6myPNp/Screenshot-2.jpg
Cosette: Morning William.My mother says you can come out now,but if you misbehave
again, she's putting you back in here.
William: Well, your mother is a FUSSOCK(a pudgy or stupid person). And you can tell her I said that.
Cosette: William!
William: I'm sorry, Cosette. But she is.
https://i.postimg.cc/MHQmXRHt/Screenshot-3.jpg
William: I better go and start on chores, before she brings out the whip.
Cosette: I wouldn't let her do that to you.
William: Don't get involved...she'll take it out on you.

Claire: You're not to speak to that boy again Cosette.
Do you understand me.
Cosette: -ignores Claire
Claire: Cosette, do you understand me?!

Claire: This is not a game.Our situation is dire.You know our family
funds are gone.
Cosette: Of Course I know its gone, you remind me of it every day.
Claire: Your father left us nothing but a legacy and bad debts hidden by a
good name.If I can get rid of William and get in with the Gracey's our troubles
would be gone.
Cosette: How could you even think I would be okay with this?
Claire: WHY ARE YOU BEING SO SELFISH?!
Cosette: I'm being selfish?
Claire: By the end of the week, I will be shipping you to boarding
school.You need to learn a little respect.
Mother turned to leave the room, I presumed she was going to find William and dish out
a lecture to him as well.

William: What do you want?
Claire: Don't get snippy with me, young man.
William: I have every right to get snippy.
Claire: Were you at the Ball last night?!
William ignored Claire's question.

Claire: I will ask you one more time.Were you at the ball last night?!
William: You want the truth? I most certainly was and I'd go again if I could.
Claire: You will stay away from my daughter.She has no interest in you.
William: I think that is up to Cosette to decide, not you.
Claire: Oh no, it is up for me to decide.

Claire: By the end of the week, I will be shipping Cosette to a boarding
school.That should keep her less distracted by you.

I couldn't sleep, so I made my way to William's room, hoping he was awake.
I needed a friend to talk to.
Cosette: William? Are you awake?
William Just a minute.

William: Are you alright Cosette?
Cosette: I can't sleep...My mother wants to ship me off...
William: to boarding school? I know.She told me as she was
ripping my head off.
Cosette: What did you do to get yelled at?
William: What haven't I done? Come in, lets try to get
your mind off it.

William: May I have this dance?
Cosette: I would love to dance with you, William.
William: What melancholy fact makes the calendar a miserable article?
Its days are numbered.
Cosette: I feel like someone else has made me laugh with similiar
jokes.
William: Oh really? Well, I hope he was kind to you. ;)
Cosette: A perfect gentleman.

something.
Cosette: Oh really? And what is it?
