Sway
First dance:
Harrison stopped middance, touching the right side of his face, where he scar stood, as if he had been slapped. And perhaps he had, and it was the greatest strike of his life. He was never too keen when it comes to letting people, especially nobles meet them and that was why not even his kins had met them, so when he had trusted an Ellis, especially the first daughter of the Ellis family who he not really not all too well, but they had begged to meet someone and he had not she was not prejudice.
He had thought of her as curious, kind, and a good soul, and all other positive aspects that his mother would shriek in horror at- thinking of an Ellis in such a way. Harrison had always thought his mother was a bit with cruel with her opinion on most people but right know he understood his mother dislike or in particular this Ellis. “You were quite a good actress there, even more skilled than I thought you would as it seemed that throughout day all you did was act. You truly think yourself as better than them?” Harrison said with a low voice, so that only Aurelia and he could hear, his lips had dropped to a frown and his eyes were filled with hatred- something that should have been filled with as soon as he was born, ‘Ellis were not to be trusted,’ his brother had said and perhaps she was right. Harrison had just liked the appeal of befriending an enemy, a good tale for his future children, but now he understands an enemy is an enemy and perhaps not all Ellis were enemies to his body, heart, soul, mind but she especially and her parents were enemies. cruel enemies.
"Perhaps you are better than them, after all you do not know what it’s like to lose a parent at such an early age, He did not know too as his father had died when he was 19, it was early but not quite as early but still unlike some it seems that he could sympathize. “And you are titled, a descendant of dukes, you are quite better than them in aspects such as that but unlike you it seems they have a heart. They are capable of love. You do not have to dance with me,” He said as he eyed her with disdain, before he turned away and began to walk away. He stopped in his tracks, as he realized everyone was watching, what a scene this shall be and the look Angelina and his mother was giving him.
His stomach turned at all this, as he sighed internally- no, he shall not cause a scene that Lady Whistledown would speak so much about, this was Angelina day. His lips curved to a smile as he faced the crowd, it was not a real smile, one that was genuine, but the crowd did not know him so well to tell, even his mother did not know him so well as she simply rolled his eyes, thinking it was one of his antics. Angelina, on other hand gave him a sad smile- his dear sister, how well she knew him. He turned to face Aurelia the smile not reaching his face as he walked towards her extending his hand, as she took it and they revived their danced. " I would be as pleased as you were to never interact with you again after this dance, you are truly what you are said to be." He whispered. A cruel privilege woman who had never seen things from the side of the less fortunate, fed with a golden spoon since birth and sure Harrison was also fed with one at birth, but there was a difference that marked him and the Lady, it was that Harrison was compassionate, he had feelings, emotions and just because he was of a high birth did not mean he did not find the people of low births lovely or think lowly of them.
He was many things, really he was various of things, and he would agree and disagree with most people’s opinions on him, but the one thing he would disagree with is that Harrison is prejudice. He was not, he was the complete opposite of prejudice after all, everyone deserved love happiness and compassion and Harrison would do anything to provide it for them.
Thus, as the dance continued, the people’s eyes removing them, Harrison twirled Aurelia, spinning her in circle, bringing her back to him with distant. His eyes cold and unmoving, Harrison eyes were never usually like that event with the people he could admit he was not quite fond of. But no and he means no one, plays with the feelings of them.
