"I have never asked anyone to stay with me before, Andrew wasn't actually surprised at Charles' reaction, "You are welcome to stay the night if you like. It is very private out here. No one bothers me. If any one asked, you can tell them how you rescued me and you had to take care of me. It certainly wouldn't be a lie."
The truth of it was, the prince was very lonely. It was nice to have someone to talk to and spend time with who wasn't a servant or one of his uncle's lackeys. Andrew bit his lip, still hesitating to tell Charles who he was. It might be safer for the Duke not to know.
"Tomorrow I must get up early and be at the palace in the morning to help prepare for the ball. I am very close to the prince and I am certain that he would grant you an audience."
