Prince John entered the dinning room, his actions on asking Particia where his own but, many would be questioning it form other nobles to even the poor, what was he up to.
He could of not so easly been taken by, Patricia or had he. It appered that only time, would tell on what his motives where.

Patricia entered the castle wearing her best gown. Her hair was tied up in a nice and elegant bun, she of course wanted to look nice and proper for this man, for goodness sakes 'he was to be' the next king of England.
As guards had shown her to the Prince's dining room, she walked inside feeling as nervous as ever.
She took a glance at the Prince, nodded, then gave him a light bow of fake respect, but of course he did not know that. Was this man growing a fancy on her or something? [/color][/size]

Prince John watched as Patricia entered the dinning room, he was not surprised, after all how many of low class, would ever get to have dinner with royalty, let along a Prince. Who had well demanded them, to come to join them? His eyes flickered as he saw what she was wearing, well looked like some could almost look of high title then they where.
To many it could of come across as, he had lost his mind to invite a peasant to dine with him. But Prince John always had reason for his actions & plains; he knew what he was doing. The odds where it would work but, he had to some how make it where, Patricia would succumb to the idea.
His eyes where cold as always, as he watched Patricia nodded to him & then bow, -well it was good to see she was showing respected to him finally- Gesturing with a hand to a chair he waited for, he to be close before drawing out the chair for her.
This action alone should have made one wander, what he was up to whom, could say they had ever seen such an action Royalty being so proper around one of lower class, of the lowest class there was.
Prince John then moved to seat down across from her, the table was not really long so he likes had his guards or servants bring in a smaller table. He nodded to a guard that in turn, nodded to those that would be bringing out the food & serving them.
One of the waiters moved to Prince John’s side first asking what he wanted to drink, before moving to Patricia’s side to asked what she would like to drink as well, once he knew what they both wanted he left to go & get it.

As Patricia sat down, like a lady but of course, she watched Prince John's action. He looked rather handsome tonight, she thought to herself. She did not care to shed a smile on her face, for it would be a little too awkward and revealing of her feelings.
As she had slightly whispered something to the waiter, she glanced at him as he straddled off. She felt a little awkward about this, the atmosphere had been odd.
She spoke no words, just watching the Prince. On her way to the castle grounds, one of the peasants that lived in her village asked her why Prince John has asked her to come, she gave them a mere shrug, for she had no right idea why she was here. [/size][/color]

There drinks had not taken long, to be brought out to them. Once there drinks where out the chiefs brought out, the different foods that had been cooked. As they brought, out the dishes, Prince John spoke to Patricia. “I hope you find, the food to your liking”
The servants carried, out the foot or rolled them out on carts letting both Prince John & Patricia decide on what they wanted to eat. The chiefs helped to serve the many kinds of foods, to them both. There was enough, verity that something, would apple to both of them. Other servants helped, put the food on there plates & to see if they needed anything else.

Patricia quickly glanced up at him as he asked her the question. "Yes my Lord." She quickly spoke with softness and properness in her lady-like voice.
As she had finished off her dinner she slightly put it aside, looked around not knowing what to do next at the Prince's presence. She tapped her nails on her pale cheek staring into darkness.
She glanced at the candlelight move from left to right due to the wind in the room, some of the wind began to dance with her blond bangs. [/size][/color]

Prince John heard her answer; he said nothing more for the time being. He did not miss her actions, of her hand. Nor did he miss the light wind that had come threw the castle, there had to be a window open some where. And Prince John sent a servant to shoot the window or windows that where open. Much like her, he finished his meal; it had not been bad not the best. But at least it was good enough, that the chiefs did not have to worry about there lives.
He looked at her as he spoke again “You are enjoying working, at the castle?” He was not one that took kindly to people, throwing favors he did for them back in his face. As he watched her he looked to see, if he saw any sign she was lying or such to him. The thought that she might be did not set well with him & he did not know why this had come to mind but, it was likely that he always questioned people.

As Patricia glanced at one of his servants go shut one of the windows she glanced down at her hands, not keeping her eyes off them.
She did not want to lie, but she hated work at the castle. "Work at the castle is fine, my Lord." She had shown a weak, fake smile. "Absolutely great." She glanced at him.
She waited for his next actions. [/size][/color]

Prince John silently watched her, he saw her looked own at her hands he did not know what that look was suppose to be. At her words he simply nodded as, he then spoke “And the food, did you find it to your liking?” What ever he was up to was not clear, for at the moment he almost acted human & like a caring person.
His inner thoughts were to get her to trust him & from there see, if he could with her help find those such as Robin Hood that, he was looking for.
Well looked like he had another pee, the work was not as hard as the work house that was for sure. So many would be happy to, work with in these walls even if it meant having to be close to Prince John, more then those that worked out side of the castle. He then waited to see what she would say, at least she was getting feed there was many with in the village that did not get food all the time.

Patricia glanced up at him when he had asked her the question. "Y-yes my Lord." She managed a small, but obedient smile, she aimed it at him.
She waited for his next step.

(Thats alright, I am having a hard time coming up with anything that is not going to make me instently the person you hate. I know it is the role but, I am trying not to blow the plot I am working on)
He heard her words & nodded, before he looked at her "Then off the subjected, I am sure you have heard of the outlaw, Robin Hood?' He figured she knew who the man was, after all who did not. But it would help lead him into his next question & also let him know how to say the next question to where she might help.

Patricia went pale at the name of Robin Hood, but of course she knew him. She used to support him and still does. "Yes." She paused there. "My Lord."
"Robin Hood the outlaw? Of course I have, actually everyone has, my Lord." She looked down at the table.
"Why is it that people despise him for what he is , my Lord. Has he done wrong?" [/size][/color]

He heard her words well he had his answer "Many do not hate him because he is an outlaw, they hate him because he stills & others hate him because, it causes the taxes to go up" His words where true, the taxes had gone up according to the losses, the kingdom was feeling from Robin Hood.

"Ah, my Lord, that is true." She sighed at the thought of the taxes going up, those forsaken taxes, they should honestly stop them, their horrible to think of, and what more could the rich need?
"I think I've been with an outlaw before, a few years ago I'm guessing." She glanced up at her Lord. "When my mother died, my Lord, they had taken me to Nottingham. I'm not really from there to be honest. I was young back then though."
"I'm not fairly old for my age, I'm actually young Sire. Robin must be much older than me, otherwise that's what I know." [/size][/color]

Prince John listened to her words , at her first he was glade that there was some understanding it might help, to convince her to be watchful for those that brought harm in such, to her that in turn hurt him. With her second words his eyes flickered, as if that was more interesting then the first words she spoke.
At her last words he could only nodded "I am glade for your honestly with me but, yes he is older then you. Close to my brother Richards age, not that he acts it half the time” He looked at her as he wandered if he could trust her, to become a spy. Could he corrupted her or convince her to, do such things in his name? Could he trust the news she brought back, if she agreed.
Prince John knew he was in a hard place, he knew that Robin helped those that where in need or that are what, others side. And who would be more in need, then a present that was fighting to service with in this world, they called a home.
Looking at her he decided to acted, to speak but in a way that would not disclose to much to her incase. “Are you willing, to help me in watching for such people as Robin Hood?"
