think about her any more.  You’ve been an idiot.  
    ‘But we love each other,’ said Frank. 
    ‘Don’t be so stupid,’ replied William, ‘if you think she’ll give all this up for you, you’re greatly mistaken.’ 
    Wyn and Betty had cleaned Frank up the best they could when Hester Brompton walked into the stables.  ‘Could all of you please leave,’ she asked, ‘I want to talk to Frank.’  They didn’t know what was said but twenty minutes later Hester walked out followed slowly by Frank.  ‘I’m leaving,’ he told them.  ‘They’re sending Catherine away to a Finishing School in Europe and I’ve been dismissed.’  He groaned and cried out, ‘I will never see her again.’  He went up to his room above the stables and came down with his possessions about forty minutes later. 
    ‘Where will you go?’ asked Wyn. 
    ‘I’ve a brother up north,’ he replied.  ‘That’ll be a start.  Be seeing you.’  Then he walked away.
    Wyn, Betty and William went back to the house.  As they entered the kitchen they could hear Miss Catherine crying and shouting at her mother. 
    ‘I’m not going,’ she was saying.  ‘I want to be with Frank.’ 
    There was the sound of a slap as the screaming got hysterical.  Mrs Brompton came down to the kitchen as she knew there was laudanum in the chest down there.  She asked Betty to take it upstairs and give a small amount to Miss Catherine to try and calm her down.  When Betty came back she said, ‘Miss Catherine is in a real state, all red and blotchy where she has been crying so much, but she’s calming down now she has had the laudanum.’
    When they got up in the morning they were all asked see Miss Catherine off after breakfast as she was travelling to Europe straight away.  They all stood at the bottom of the stairs as Miss Catherine came down.  She walked past them with her head lowered.  William was taking her and her mother to the station where she was being put onto a train to London.  She was to be met by Charles Brompton’s spinster sister who was going to accompany her to Europe.
    ‘She looks so sad,’ Wyn commented to Betty as she walked past them. 
    ‘Embarrassed more like,’ replied Betty.  ‘She thought she was so much better than us but now knows she isn’t.’
    ‘I don’t think it was like that,’ Wyn told her, ‘I think Miss Catherine really loved Frank.  She’s not as snobby as the rest of her family.  I think she genuinely liked me.  We got on really well.  I do feel sorry for her.’ 
    ‘You’re such a romantic idiot,’ Betty exclaimed, ‘she would never have given up her pampered life to live with a groom.’ 
    When they were in bed that night, instead of just pulling up her own night gown, Betty turned to Wyn and started kissing her.  Wyn sat up shocked, ‘what are you doing?’ she exclaimed.  Betty pulled her back onto the bed, ‘instead of us just doing it to ourselves, why don’t we try doing it to each other?’ she asked.  ‘We can’t have a man, so this might be the next best thing.  She kissed Wyn again.  Wyn opened her mouth to let her slip her tongue in.  Betty started exploring with her tongue and at the same time she started touching Wyn’s nipple.  ‘Ooh,’ Wyn moaned, ‘that feels nice.’ 
    ‘Touch me as well,’ Betty whispered. 
    Wyn took hold of one of Betty’s nipples and squeezed.  Betty moaned and moved her hand further down Wyn’s body.  Wyn moved around to give Betty better access.  They were passionately kissing and touching each other by now.  They both could feel the waves of pleasure starting to rise and just let it wash over them. 
    ‘Oh that felt so good,’ Wyn told Betty ‘but is it really bad of us?’ 
    ‘Yes it did,’ replied Betty ‘and who cares if it’s bad, we can do it whenever we want and it makes us feel really nice.  Who’s going to know?’
    The following day Wyn was in the kitchen as normal when Mrs Danvers the
