Drabble following on from Affairs of State.

Lady Catherine sweeps a curtsey and lowers her eyes demurely.

"I assure you, Sire, the Prince has not taken his pleasure with me or any other courtier since the day of your marriage. He has remained chaste and faithful to you as he promised."

So why the fuck has Steven not visited Danny's chambers once since their wedding night?

"If I may be so bold, Sire..." Catherine raises her eyes to his. "The Prince knows that this marriage was not your choice... and then the video... he doesn't wish to inconvenience you any further."

Damn Steven and his misplaced chivalry.

silly, silly Steve. maybe he got hit in the head once too many when he was young & learning fencing. :P

He's just being all self-sacrificing and noble and stuff... he needs Danny to put him straight about it all.

putting him straight isn't the way i'd put it... ;) but yeah, he needs someone to tell him, even the marriage isn't what Danny wants, there's nothing to stop Steve from courting Danny properly after getting married.
