A shiver ran through Sephy's body as Keiran took hold of her hand. She looked up at him and smiled. "I guess we are!" she giggled and then threw her body into a mock curtsy. "This way, kind sir" she smiled and gently tugged on his hand. It was harder finding her way through the maze in the black midnight. A few times she took a wrong turn and had to lead them both back the other way. Though she knew this place like the back of her hand, she still found it more difficult in the dark. When Sephy was younger, the maze is where she would come if she needed a break from being 'Royal', and since the guards and maids did not know their way around it, she often got at least half an hour to herself.
It only took them ten minutes, but soon they were standing outside the kitchen door. "Wait here a second" Sephy whispered as she pushed her ear up against the door to try and find out if there was anyone in there. It seemed silent, so she opened it and walked inside. Perfectly empty! She smiled and poked her head around the door saying "Coasts clear!" with a cheeky wink. Sephy stood by the kitchen counter and waited for Keiran to gather the things he needed and make the hot chocolate.
