Alice watched the girl go about filling her bath. It was strange, the girl looked so young, younger than alice herself. The scar on the girls face troubled alice, what could have happened to the poor girl?
When the servant left and shut the door, Alice walked to her bath and tested the ware wit her hand. It was hot, and Alice smiled. It was going to feel wonderful. She carefully removed the dress she was given, and laid it across the chair near the bath. With her clothes off, Alice sank into the hot water. It was so relaxing as the heat seeped into her muscles and relieved her aches. Alice let herself slip the whole way under the water to wet her head and hair. When she couldn't hold he breathe any longer, she came back up and leaned back with a contented sigh. Baths were always great to unwind and relax.
She wanted to stay in longer, but she also didn't want to be rude so after she was clean, Alice got to her feet and grabbed a towel as she climbed out. Once dry and dressed in the new dress given to her, Alice used the comb she found on the nearby vanity to fix her hair.
Alice put he things back where she had found them and then walked over to the door of the room, her bare feet padding softly on the floor. She opened the door to see if anyone was near.

Only minutes after leaving Alice, he realized that the sunrise was near. He could stay out, as long as he did not venture out into the sun, but decided against it. he quickly retired to his bedroom, making sure that all the curtains were drawn and that no light was allowed into the room.
Shutting the door behind him, still thinking of Alice, he opened the oak casket and slid inside.

When Alice stepped into the hallway she was surprised to find it empty. The Hall itself was very ornate. Paintings and tapestries lined the walls as ALice softly walked down the hall. Small tables dressed with vases sat at the ends of the halls, and Alice couldn't help but notice that all of the curtains in the house were closed.
"Hello?" ALice's soft voice broke the silence after a few moments. She found it eerie that no one was around in a massive place like this. After she shivered, Alice wrapped her arms around herself. She continued to walk down the halls, looking for anyone, her dress swishing gently about her ankles.
"Is anyone here?" her voice was quiet and shaky.

There were a few servants that moved around the castle during the day; most were like the Count, only able to come out at night. One such servant, the same girl who'd brought Alice the water, was in the living area when she heard Alice calling for someone. Her curiosity getting the better of her, she peeked around the corner to see the girl walking in her direction.
"Looking for something, miss?" The girl asked, stepping out into the open.

Alice sighed with releif when she saw the girl from earlier. "I'm sorry, I was just looking for Derek I suppose, honestly I'm not sure what I am to do a the moment." Alice admitted nervously. She was In someone elses home and she didn't know if she should just stay in the room she was given or if she was aloud to go somewhere else.
She reached up and rubbed her neck. The aches were coming back. "um, if he is busy, I ll go back to my room. Just let him know that I finished cleaning up." her face reddened slightly. She wanted his company, it felt strange to be in his home with out him there.

the girl nodded. "Master is resting at the moment. You are, however our guest. You are free to come and go as you please." She smiled briefly. "Master simply asks that you refrain from entering his room or study unless he expressly gives you permission. Master relishes his privacy."
The girl brushed a strand of blond hair from her face. "I'm Ellie. Master asks, that if you would allow it, I show you around..."

Alice nodded and smiled as she clasped her hands in front of her. "I would like that." Despite the aches in her neck and arms, Alice was pretty awake, she could use something to pass the time until Derek returned from...whatever it is he was doing. So Alice followed the little girl around on the tour of Derek's home.

Ellie showed Alice the library, kitchen, and even the basement. It was a rather large house so it kept them busy for most of the day. When the sun finally began to set, Ellie showed Alice to the dining room.
"Dinner is generally served about an hour after sunset. Master will be joining you shortly." She announced, curtsying slightly. "I would stay with me but I am in charge of preparing the meal."

Alice watched the girl disappear and then she looked back at the elaborate table set before her. She smiled at the beautiful dishes and decorations on the table. As she looked at all the places set, Alice wondered where she was to sit, she didn't want to take someone elses place so she slowly wondered around the dinky room as she waited for derek to show up. Alice looked at the paintings on the walls and other items set about the room, wondering what Derek was doing..

Derek awoke slowly, eyes fluttering open. Rising from the casket, he dressed and hurried to the dining room. He watched Alice for a brief moment before he cleared his throat, making known his presence.
"I pray I haven't made you wait long."

Alice jumped at the sound of Derek's voice. She turned around , her face red. "Derek... No you didn't keep me waiting." she offered him a smile. " I was just given a tour of your lovely home. Although, I'm glad your back. Honestly I felt rather strange walking around with out you." she admitted, her face still a rosy color.

Derek nodded, motioning to one of the chairs. "Please, have a seat." He took the biggest chair, oak wood back and ebony-colored. "What are you in the mood for tonight?"

Alice smiled and took a seat next to Derek. She fixed a wrinkle in her dress as he spoke. When Alice looked up she shrugged. "oh it doesn't matter, I'll eat anything." she smiled grateful for the handsome man's hospitality during her current situation.

Derek nodded and signaled for one of the servant girls, his favorite Ellie. "Ellie, dear. Tell me. What is on the menu for tonight? Something good, I hope?"
Ellie nodded. "Yes sir. Roasted chicken with a honey sauce and dressing on the side. Also, Cook is preparing his famous salad."
Derek nodded, knowing he wouldn't be eating any of that but at least Alice would have something to eat. "Very good, Ellie." And he dismissed her with a wave of his hand.

Alice licked her lips and smiled as she covered up her rumbling stomach. "That sounds delicious!" She smiled at Derek and tucked a long piece of hair behind her ear. "So where exactly am i?" she asked shyly, she didn't want to sound nosy but she was curious as to where she had washed up on shore.

He smirked. "You are in my home, my dear. Just slightly north of Ballinac Channel." He explained, sipping a dark liquid from his cup. "You were unconscious for quite a while. I was honestly afraid that you would not make it." He lifted his shoulders, winking at her. "But, alas, here you are."

Alice felt herself blush at his wink. She was stil unsure of where she was, but she was glad she had such a nice host, and his looks were just a bonus. She carefully picked up her glass and sipped at her water. "I am so grateful for you kindness. You are doing so much for me, how am I ever to repay you?" she asked as she trie to ignore her flushed face. Alice hoped she could stay with Derek for a while, but it was all up to him.
