Mounting the exterior stairs leading to the grand entrance to the Chief Justice's Private Residence, Will Aden rattles off to the executive assistance following a pace behind him who is typing furiously on his mobile to keep up with the justice's rapid and hushed patter. As they reach the top of the stairs he turns to the aide, who quickly runs through the notes he'd taken before and, with a nod, sets off back the way he came while Will enters the lavish residence. He smiles and nods to the Commonwealth Mountie stationed at the entrance who allows the justice to pass without word.
The music grows to a boom as he makes his way to and enter the grand ball room; he stands back to take in the scene of what must be hundreds of people dancing to the music or moving from one end to of the room to another. He's able to get the attention of a passing server who promptly brings him his standard gin and tonic in a glass the size of a finger bowl. Will smirks to himself as he thinks, "Well, he'd certainly give Gastby a run for him money, that's for sure".

Dr. Ruclax arrives back at his manor from teaching at the university. He walks through the huge doors, opened wide for him by his staff, as he holds beautiful bound book of Shakespeare and teaching supplements. He strolls down toward his room- a 10 minute walk- and puts the books down on a desk nearby, He takes his suit off and puts on sweats and a tee shirt. He takes out his phone and texts his friend, asking him to come over and chill with him.
He laughs to himself a bit "The Mounties shouldn't give him a problem again"
He makes his way down to the game room and puts on some xbox.

Another busy day in the Internal Ministry, aka the Minister's home. Cyrus Nicoli was being flooded with citizen paperwork and requests from the Parliament. No doubt a little frustrating. Stepping away from his desk, Cyrus walked outside, and received a text. From Alexander, it seemed. Cyrus smiled. "I could use the company. Thanks... But I'm in no mood to walk. I'll call a cab."
Cyrus tipped the cab driver generously and bid him farewell. Another visit to the Chief's humble-ish abode. Dressed plainly for the winter weather, Cyrus walked the long trek to the front door and made his way in, where he chatted with some of the servants. "Where is Alexander?" He asked one of the butlers. "In his game room, I believe, sir," he answered. Cyrus rolled his eyes and descended further into the house, getting lost a couple times, before finding the room and walking in. "Alexander, old friend! How art thou?" He said gleefully, opening his arms wide. |

One of the servants came to find Alex to tell him Cyrus was here. He stood up and stretched a bit and made his way down to the lobby.
---
"Cyrus!, what's up my friend? How are things?" He said as he walked with him to the game room

"My patience with the bureaucracy wears thin, let's just say that!" Cyrus chuckled. "I may need a bigger house to accommodate for my ever-expanding family of paper wives and husbands. Though I doubt my troubles amount to that of an actual couple. But, Let me put my work on pause for a moment!" Cyrus plopped on a beanbag chair and sighed with relaxation. "I hear you resigned from your office. How could you?!" He said with mock shock.

Alex rested in his chair by the fire place and sipped some boubon.
"Well, to be quite honest my buddy, I was just tired of it. I've been a jurist my whole career here in the region, and I needed a change of pace. Plus, I've always enjoyed teaching, helping others think differently sharping there perception of life, so I decided that that's what I would like to do with my time. And yea, I know it caught people off guard! I know people will still look to me for legal advise and questions, which is fine by me, although I'm happy to not be at the helm anymore. Even though the judiciary isn't always busy, it's not easy to be Chief Justice, having to keep the morale and participation of the Justices up, structure different courts, make sure that new judges are trained and qualified and make sure that the other branches are in check-not to mention being the face of the Judiciary.
It's actually nice not to have that burden anymore and just have the university to attend to."
He took a sip of bourbon and smiled, content in his chair.

"I never really knew how tough it was being Chief Justice. I can only imagine the stress it could take; respect. We will mourn your passing, Alex. But that Judge Aden is a tough one, isn't he? I wonder how many people will be vying for his support come next month's elections," Cyrus said. "And the University is doing well enough for itself, eh? One of your finest inventions, I daresay. As long as you are happy, we're happy. I'm happy. But, I think you could use the... company around the manor now that you're semi-retired, no?" Cyrus chuckled. "The newspapers and talk shows around the Commonwealth City have been all abuzz since the last ball. Can't go one week without someone starting rumors and talks. You ought to deliver."

"Haha yea. Will is a good man. I elevated him precisely, because he is the right man for the job . He'll do just fine; he defiantly has my support for the upcoming election. In fact, speaking of election, I've been giving some more thought to the suggestions of others for me to run for Chancellor, and I am highly considering it. We'll see what I feel.
And yes! I think I'm going to ask Minny out for diner; we'll see what happens.
What about you? You and Judges Fawkes eh?"

"We'd all be disappointed if the justice didn't rise up to the task to administer... Well, justice." Cyrus chuckled. "And you, run for Chancellor? I'm not sure I heard that right, but I'll take it as I heard it. Alex, that sounds marvelous! No one would stand a chance against against you! Except for maybe Chancellor Mark. But the right-wing crackpot opposition may swing the vote in your favor. No offense to the conservatives in our region, of course!" Cyrus said excitedly. "Oh, indeed! Ask the madame out, you should. Alone in a big mansion, you should not be," he said in his best Yoda impression, then blushed. "Oh, that Fawkes. We've had a couple small talks in passing, but never really sat down with him. He's a bit shy sometimes, which I completely understand. Maybe, if I play my cards right in the future, he'll be my one and only. We shall see." Cyrus said with a small smile on his face.

______________________________________November 30th, 2015:
Alex and Marie have been seeing each other for, already, three years. Not many people have known in the Commonwealth, but Alex and Marie have taken an interest in each other from a while back; it wasn't until Miles Humpheria, Alex's close friend, through the oil on the already glowing flames, and they both started to realize they truly loved each other. This was the night Alex had thought about for a long time-the night he would propose to Marie. He was going to take her to a special place, a place he cherished and adored since he was a young kid, the Forêt de Miel( the Forest of Honey), which was the 1000 arce land his family owned. He put on his best tuxedo, waiting for Marie to show up, as she usually did on Monday's to hang out. She told her to dress nicely-thinking she would think they were going out to diner.
He sat in his chair smiling at the thought of her and waiting for her to arrive.

Marie was a little bit worried. After three years of being with Alex she was fearful he didn't want to go any further. He always seemed to be so happy just right where he was at all times. Tonight, she had managed to leave the office early so that she could arrive at his manor on time, rather than an hour or two late as she usually did. The two of them usually spent Monday evening together, but tonight it sounded as if they were going to go out for dinner, which was completely fine with Marie. After a hard day of work she appreciated the opportunity to go out and have a nice dinner with someone she really cared about. Pulling up to his house, she looked in the mirror once more to check her makeup. Stepping out, she saw the tux Alex was wearing and smiled, boy did he look good.

Alex smiled slightly, as he always does, when he saw her. He meet her at the steps and kissed her, and then kissed her neck in the playful way he always did. "Hey babe, so I was thinking of going somewhere a little different tonight; I think you'll like it!" He took her hand and led her to his motorcade. They went inside, holding hands the whole drive, and arrived at a beautiful and lush forest with terrific and magnificent gates. Alex opened the door and led her out, holding her hand, and approached the two armed Commonwealth Mounites who stood posted there. They saluted him and opened the gate. They strolled along the paths, beautiful tees and flowers lined their path as they laughed and talked about the day.-----
Finally they came to a clearing, where it was almost pitch black: they could see the millions of stars and the milky way spread across the sky. He sat down with her on some soft grass and looked up at the stars with her.
He turned his head toward her, as she was still struck with the sight of them- looking at her- he said
"You're so much more beautiful than the stars"
As they kissed, Alex took out, from his tux pocket, a ring that was brilliant in diamonds with a blue stone crystal in the middle. He inched back from her a bit, "I love you Marie. I don't want to spend my life with anyone else but you"(he said with a smile) He showed her the ring in his palm "Will you Marry me Marie?

Tears in her eyes, she had to rip her eyes away from Alex to the ring, if only for a second before she was once more staring into his loving eyes. "Yes." She choked out. "There is no one else that I would rather be with than you." She said, smiling while the tears streamed down her cheeks.

He tear dripped from his eye as a great smile spread across his face. He put the ring on her and then kissed her, passionately.
They were in each other embrace, and love, the whole night.
-----
the next morning Alex woke up next to her, the sun's golden rays spreading across the trees like honey, and kissed her.
"Hey babe....I was thinking we take off from work today...just be with each other0he kissed her again- plus we need to start planning the wedding!"

Brushing the hair out of her face, she looked up at her boy- no. Fiancé, and smiled.
"I think that is a wonderful idea. The being with each other part, we can put off wedding planning for, say, an hour?" She said with a devilish smile. "They won't be needing me in the office today anyways, my Deputies can handle themselves."
