Summary
He doesn’t know why he does it, says, “Let me,” and gestures for her to turn around. He thinks she’ll wave him off, tell him not to worry, that she can do it herself.
But she doesn’t.
She turns around so her back is to him, and he takes a step closer, reaching up to grab onto her braid, slowly sliding the hair tie off.
He puts it on his wrist, next to the one he already has on, and the plait almost falls apart on its own, but he can’t help putting his hands in her hair, undoing the braid and running his fingers through the strands gently.
“There you go,” he says quietly once her hair is loose around her shoulders.
She sighs and leans into him, her back against his chest, and tilts her head to rest on his shoulder.

Summary
“Would you…” he begins, hesitating briefly. “Would you like me to explain it to you, what the letter means and why you reacted so?” he asks, watching her carefully under half-lidded eyes. “Oh, yes” she says, nodding emphatically, her lips stretching into a sudden beaming smile. How silly of me, to think Francis would be upset. He only wants to help, she thinks to herself, feeling a sudden rush of affection for the young prince.
“Are you certain, little Mouse? You are clever enough to understand the subtext behind my speech, are you not?” Mel frowns at the vague nature of his words, again, not totally understanding. But her desire for knowledge outweighs, and she nods in response to Francis’s questioning. “Okay,” Frank says, breaking the tension on his face with a devilish smile.
