"Ah, rather tired," he admitted quietly, taking her hand and just bowing his head, instead of kissing it like normal.
Sarah wrinkled her nose in confusion, then giggled. "Such a gentleman…" She'd been going for a handshake, but oh well!
Jane smiled. "So how are you, Sarah?"
"I've been doing well. Brothers are all fighting, so having a peaceful house is a bit nice," she laughed.John shuffled awkwardly; his introvert self was starting to crave the solidarity of home.
Jane noticed and squeezed his arm. "It was nice to see you again, Sarah. I'm afraid I'm feeling fatigued as well, so we're going to retire from the party a little early."

Yeah, til April comes over?)

John lifted his gaze with relief.

John lifted his gaze with relief.
"So early? Jane, you've hardly danced!" Sarah cried.
Jane blushed. "It's fine. I'm tired. Shall we go, John?"
"Yes," he replied quickly, relieved to escape the crowd.
Jane led him from the hall. "I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you about Sarah," Jane murmured once they were outside.
"It's okay," John laughed quietly. "I'm.. Hah. I don't handle crowds as well ad I used to.,"
She pressed her lips into a smile. Suddenly shock struck her face. "John – we're married!"
He blinked, and smiled softly. "Yes, we.. We are,"
She flung her arms around his neck and kissed him happily. "We're married, we're married!"
He began to laugh delightedly, the realization sinking in now. "We are!"
"Want to go home?" she asked, her eyes sparkling happily.
"Well," he breathed, "If it wouldn't be rude to the guests,"
"Shall I make an announcement?" she purred, her fingers playing with his collar.
"Maybe," his voice quieted at her tone.
"What shall I say?" She didn't stop fiddling with his collar.
"Um," he spoke quietly, "Say.. Say, uh, say I'm feeling nauseous? And I'm getting to bed early?"
"What about me?" She looked up at him innocently. "I thought things were going to happen tonight…"
"Well of course you'd come with to care for me." He smiled curlishly.
Jane smirked. "Alright. I'll be right back."
("John's not feeling well, etc;")
A few moments later, she returned. "Shall we be off?" she asked slyly.
"We shall," John replied with a broad smile.
She threaded her arm through his and waited for him to lead her.
Her husband lead her from the home, his face lit with excitement.
Jane smiled when she glanced up at him. "You look excited," she pointed out.
"I am," he replied very bashfully.
"For…?" She bit her lip and awaited his answer.

Sure, do you need me to play April again?
"For…?" She bit her lip and awaited his answer.
John looked to the side, up, then back. "Must I say..?" He replied sheepishly.
