The candle light flickered by her side, she sighed. It was nothing more than a stump of used wax now. She needed more candles for such late nights. Unconsciously, she turned over her wrist and checked her watch. It was nearly three hours past curfew. If she turned on her light so late at night, Prince Joshua or Jan would come by and chew her out for being up so late. At least that's the excuse she would use. Just then *Boom* I jumped up from looking out at my mystery book.

There he was Prince Joshua as I predicted scolding me as he walked over and climbed into bed. "Heather Hood! How many times have I told ya to not wait for me while you can go on to sleep?" He asked me. I grinned sheepishly at my husband as I closed my book and placed it on my nightstand. " Oh I don't know I lost count." I laughed as he kissed me goodnight. " Oh we're going on vacation tomorrow to Vosges Mountains, Eastern part of France." "ok goodnight sweetheart" we both said to each other and went to sleep.
