Chapter Thirty Two- Pulitzer's Ball
Saying that Katherine was completely over the whole Jack being a skirt chasing, lady's man with a sinful pass was false. She knew that old habits die hard, she still bites her lip when she's nervous even though she's been told not to.
So Jack checking out women was most likely but she never saw it, he was respectful when talking to women in low cleavage dresses and tight around their bums. But she knew he looked none the less.
She knew Jack even though they had been married for about three months and known each other for eight. She wished that would change but she knew that old habits die hard, like Clara toeing her shoe off.

Pulitzer and Hannah had just announced their engagement and Katherine and Clara spent ages getting a ball for them together, making sure that Hannah shined brightly and that Joseph looked sharp.
Katherine was so happy that her long time nanny and her father were getting married, mainly they were finally getting married due to the fact he was stepping down as king soon.
Katherine wore a clean beige white pinkish gown with lace and pearl like detailing, flaring out a tad near her hips. True the dress was a little low but she thought it was pretty and showed her baby bump that was forming.
Clara wore a bluish greenish gown that sinched in at her waist and went to the floor like Kathrine's, Davey wore a matching tie made from the same material as her gown.
The two wore tiaras that matched their gowns, in their signature hairstyles, Katherine's half up half down and Clara's up in a french braided bun. They both wore plain heels under their gowns since no one would really see it.
Jack helped Katherine walk down when they announced that the Prince and Princess were here. Jack's hand on her back as they floated down the stairs, tons of guests clapping for them and Jack smiling softly at her.

Katherine hadn't seen much of Jack tonight, she was busy making sure things stayed smooth as the even went on. Greeting guests, making sure that Hannah's dress was smooth, that people were enjoying themselves.
"Its quite easy, you just pretend to listen to your wife and then do something complete the opposite and say your advisers said to" she overheard a man say. It was a group of men from parliament, ranging from 35 to their late 70's and there was Jack, nursing a flute of champagne.
The men were laughing and Jack smiled along with them, these would be their future advisers, so it was good that he was at least trying to get along with them. Jack saw her and excused himself from the group for a moment to see his wife.
"Hey" he said as he reached her.
"Hey yourself" she smiled gently "Things going well?" she asked as one of his hands snaked around her waist, pausing at the side of her bump.
"For the most part I think so, hows the party" he asked.
"Smoothly" she replied as he brought his flute up to his lips. "Have you seen Clara, she and I are suppose to do meet around this time to see how the party is going" she replied.
"I saw her near the stairs or something sweetie" he said and gently touched her bump, "I'll see you"
"Save me a dance prince hair gel" she said and he kissed her cheek.
*
When she knew the party was somewhere around 3/4ths done she went looking for her husband, wanting that dance that she was promised. Looking around she saw a similar blue suit, his trademark and many of the men here were far too shy to wear that and none of them could pull it off like he could.
She smiled seeing the blue and followed the blue down some hall like area, behind one of the grand staircases that had bench and some place to breath, a place where Jack took her when they had their wedding and the made out for a couple minutes, that was their spot.
She saw Jack there, with some women, long blonde hair and thick breast with tight dress. She had green eyes and red long fingernails, that were up on his arm, it seemed like he was more than comfortable with her holding him like so.
He laughed and looked down at their feet, then pushed back a piece of her hair, and he chuckled a little, still cupping her cheek.
That's when her heart broke, and a single tear fell down her cheek and landed on her bump.
