Toni felt his hesitation as he clung to the shirt, “See I knew I was right and the blue was your color. You look great, hopefully no one else spills coffee on you today because you don’t deserve that.” she let out a small chuckle. Knowing that he seemed the type to insist and they both had places to be she nodded. “See I get it for free with the company I work with. I bring them tons of business I get free dry cleaning. I promise it’s not that big of a deal.” she handed him her card. “See you soon, Blondie.” she gave him a wink and headed out the door.

“Does it bring out the color of my eyes?” Thomas said playful and amused. There was always those kind of convictions in fashion and he hoped that she would take it lightly. “Here’s for hoping.” He echoed the wishes she had, with a small grin on his face.

And before he said something, she left.

“Oh I’m sure don’t even worry about it besides, I’m sure it will look better on you anyways.” She smiled at him as he was clutching the shirt in his hands normally she wouldn’t have been so clumsy it was just one of those days. “Besides if your shirt doesn’t get to a cleaner son it will be ruined, I can’t have that the clothes might find out and rebel.” she joked a bit hoping to lighten the mood and put him at ease “Go put it on and we can swap business cards and I can get your shirt back to you.”

[thomas-marie]

He grabbed the shirt, nodding and smiling politely, before he left to the bathroom. Although he still felt a little uneasy about wearing someone else’s shirt, he really needed that, so he just obeyed, switching to the blue social shirt. The prince walked back to where she was still standing, shirt folded, but he didn’t hand to her right away. “I insist on paying, though.” He said, grabbing the fabric firmly so she couldn’t just pull. He wasn’t going to let the girl pay for his laundry; it seemed rude, especially when he could pay for himself. He could only thing about his mother, what she would say if he let her pay.

Toni looked at his shirt and set down her bags taking the napkins and trying to blot it out herself. Mumbling about how sorry she was and she didn’t even see him. “Your shirt needs to be dry cleaned and I’ll pay for it.  I’m so sorry I don’t know what is with me today. I’m so sorry.” she apologized again looking up at him. The clothing bag was sitting on the table and looking by him he was about the same size as her client. Pulling out a soft blue button down she handed it to him. “Try this on, give me your shirt and I’ll have it cleaned and returned to you. I’m a stylist and personal shopper before you think I just carry around men’s clothes.” Toni gave him a small laugh ushering him to the bathroom.

Thomas still smiled to her. To treat others with kindness and spread smiles was all part of the things he was taught, and he hoped that the good karma he spread would come in return to her. “It is really alright. Accidents happen.” The blonde said, before he gave up on trying to dry his shirt, throwing the soaked napkins away. He grabbed the blue shirt a little bit confused ── her offer was generous, to say the least, because he really needed to look his presentable to the meeting, but at the same time it didn’t seem right to accept. “A── are you sure?” He asked, raising one eyebrow. “I can find another one...” He said, looking over his shoulder to his bodyguard, which was his backup plan.

[antonia-hernando-blog]

“Oh sorry!” she turned around and smiled at the stranger. “I didn’t mean to assault you with my bag or spill your coffee. Let me buy you another?”

[thomas-marie]

Shit. It was the first thing he thought when the bag hit his coffee cup. Although the content was hot, he was not worried about the heat. His shirt was completely ruined and he had a meeting in fifteen minutes. Regardless, he showed his best smile to the girl. “Oh,” he gestured, “it’s alright. You don’t have to.” He said, grabbing a few napkins of the counter and tried to clean his shirt.

I hope not, I actually love my coffee table. Most of my furniture is vintage and I’d hate to part with any of it, so I couldn’t imagine the anguish you felt. You must really love you mother to have sat through all that. Here’s hoping she loosens the reigns a bit. You’re a a grown man, after all. And on the topic of modest mothers, mine would chastise me for not introducing myself. I’m Felicity Halliday-Watson: a member of the over-attached parenting club.It’s nice to meet you.

[thomas-marie]

Actually, I don’t have a deep connection to my furniture. I mostly let the lady in the story decided about it. I think she was maybe a little too pleased. She acted a little weird, but I do, I love her very much. I don’t think it will, but I will just deal with it. It is not a problem. It is a pleasure, Felicity. I am Thomas Marie. Where can I take my member card?

[the-martin-longhurst]

Ichhalte dich an dein Wort, Thomas. Es läuft gut. Mein Verlobter hat durchaus die wachsende Zahl von friends in this Stadt und mit meiner Familie und Freunden, es erweist sich ganz der Aufwand nur die Zusammenstellung der Gästeliste zu sein. I’m considering eloping…Aber meine Mutter würde michumbringen,

[thomas-marie]

Ich verstehe. Ich würde sagen, was Sie tun sollten, aber ich bin kein Experte in Hochzeiten, und meine Mutter wird wahrscheinlich verantwortlich für die ... Nun, allessein. Mein Hauptaugenmerk an meinem Hochzeitstag wird zeigen, werden auf.

[felicity-halliday-watson]

Clothing wise, yes.  She’s a big fan of modesty,my mother.I think the only things she found suitable in my closet were my ball gowns and my bathrobes. But I think all mothers are unintentionally controlling. I once heard someone say that once you become a mother, you never stop being one. I supposed that in their eyes, no matter how old we get, we’re always their children. I’m sure she meant well,at least? Your mother, I mean.

[thomas-marie]

For a second I thought she was getting rid of your coffee table. Mine is too, but, according to her, we can't be too modest, otherwise it will look incredibly fake. I wouldn't know, I will never be a mother, but I do see her side. And yes, she does. She loves me, but she also needs to let me grow on my own. She should trust me she raised me properly by now.

[sebastian-whitley]

My deepest and sincerest of apologies to her majesty the Queen. I mean no offense, your lordship. How is mother dearest, by the by? I would have thought that she’d be overjoyed at your newly single status, but it seems as though she’s still not please with you…

[thomas-marie]

You don't have to put on this fake the── Nevermind. She doesn't let me see, but she is pleased. The Queen will never be fully satisfied while I live halfway across the globe, Sebastian. Which, partially, she has a point. A prince should be living amongst his people, right? However, I am not caving to it, and she will get used. And if refurniture my apartment makes her happy, so be it. 

[the-martin-longhurst]

Ah, ich verstehe. Nun, ich hoffe, dass sie nicht über die Familie Longhurst vergessen. Ich erwarte, dass mindestens ein Mitglied der königlichen Familie bei meiner Hochzeit, Sir Thomas.

[thomas-marie]

Mach dir keine Sorgen, werden wir, sobald wir die Einladung, Mr. Longhurst bekommenuAwg. Wie ist die Planung hin?

[felicity-halliday-watson]

My goodness… Your mother sounds very …organized. I’ll never forget the first time my mother came to visit me when I started living on my own — she  tried to throw out anything I had then didn’t go past my knees.

[thomas-marie]

Controlling could be a better word, but I appreciate the fact that you didn't use. Clothing wise? Or you mean anything?

[sebastian-whitley]

Gods, Thomas, that woman is insufferable. I know that she’s your mother, but you let the queen take the piss out of your entire life and now she’s redecorating? Did she put a little leash around your bollocks and walk you around the consulate as well?

[thomas-marie]

Says the man with no responsibility at all. My mother is not insufferable, watch your mouth before you speak anything about her ever again, Sebastian, because your good graces with me can come to an end. It is not like anyone on the Earth believed this friendship would last long.

[the-martin-longhurst]

Die Königin war hier und ich habe nicht einmal einen Anruf bekommen? Ich bin beleidigt.

[thomas-marie]

Eigentlich war die Königin in Washington DC und Los Angeles übergeben, mich zu überraschen. Ich war überrascht! Ich werde ihr sagen, aber. Ich bin sicher, sie werden eher traurig mit sich selbst.

[thomas-marie]

I am shocked that in mom's first visit to Los Angeles, she did not much but to yell at me in two different languages that I am incapable of keeping my life in order because she opened the fridge and it was empty, and refurnitured the apartment. Moms will be moms, regardless.

Gia took the flowers from him and shut the door as he came in, moving back to her vanity and gesturing to the couch across from her. "Yes, older, wiser, and still very handsome. It’s like looking at an old photo." she smiled."I’m good, I’m good. It’s been so long since I’ve been back on Broadway, it feels familiar but strange at the same time. What are you doing all the way out here, anyway? Aren’t you a national treasure now? I’m surprised they let you out of the country again."

[thomas-marie]

Thomas smiled. "You still look stunning as usual. I am happy for you, Gia. Acting was your life." He walked slowly and sat on the couch. "Please, I am just the king now." Thomas chuckled. It was not like him to brag about his title, so he had the playful tone. "I am here on an official visit, so I thought I should come around, pay you a visit."
