You were sitting on the bed wondering what to do when Dante broke the silence “So… what do you wanna do?” he asked “Uhm… not really sure” you replied scratching your head “I still have a few books you can check out if you want” he said suggestively, you stood up off the bed “Yea I’d like to please” you said and smiled. “Okay let me get them then… I know I put them somewhere in my closet” he said walking over to his closet. He opened the top door and stuck his hand in, a few seconds later pulling out his hand with a book “Here’s the first one” he said and held the book out to you, you walked over and took it from him. He put his hand back in and then took it out and handed you another one and another “There I think that is all of them” he said and you walked over to the bed again placing them in a neat heap on the bed.

“Since you’re that type that gets stuck in a book once you start to read, I think we should get something to drink first” he said mockingly, you crossed your arms and stuck your tongue out at him squinting your eyes “Whateva!” you muttered and he laughed. Dante turned towards his bedroom door and walked over to it opening it, you were basically right behind him “Oh it’s okay Lilly I’ll go get the drinks you don’t have to come along” he said “Oh no it’s okay I want to come along… and I promise not to fall down the stairs again” you said with a silly grin plastered on your face. Dante gave a slight chuckle and nodded, you two both went to the stairs, descended down them and took a right turn, through the room full of paintings and statues and then through the swing type door.

Once again you were standing inside the kitchen, chefs and maids running around looking busier than last time. In the middle of the kitchen, a few steps away from the door was a huge counter where you could see a few people working on. To the left of the counter were big ovens and stoves, to the right of the big counter were fridges and cabinets. You stood in front of the door as Dante walked over to Alicia who was at the end of the big counter “Hello Alicia” Dante greeted her, she looked up from what she was doing “Hello young master” she said and gave a quick curtsey “I’m sorry to bother you, but could you please make me and Lilly something to drink?” he asked politely “Of course, what will it be this time?” she asked. Dante looked over at me “I’ll just have some coffee, thank you” you said smiling “The usual for me Alicia” Dante said “I will quickly prepare the drinks for you young master” Alicia said and turned towards the little counter behind her with the kettles on top of it.

“Liz! Hurry up with the chocolate!” you heard a man, supposedly a chef, scream. “Y-yes, I’m almost done!” a young looking girl yelled back who was standing on the left of the big counter, almost at the end of it. She had long brown hair tied into a ponytail, she wore a plain maids outfit and also a pair of glasses. She was stirring a bowl supposedly filled with melted chocolate. Dante walked over to you and stood beside you again, he saw you looking over at the girl “That’s Liz, she is one of the newest maids around here… and also the clumsiest” he said smiling. You looked at her and smiled “Yea I know what that’s like” you said and looked up at Dante with a silly smile. “What’s going on here? Everyone looks so busy?” you asked looking up at Dante, he looked straight in front of him “My parents are holding a meeting here tonight, so these are some snacks that are being prepared for the guests” he said sighing. “Young master could you please come and taste this for me?” a man to the left near the stoves asked, Dante walked towards the stoves “Sure” he replied.

You still stood there in the same spot not moving, you were looking at Dante as he took the spoon from the chef to taste when your attention was drawn to something else “Liz!!! Now!!!” the same guy screamed “Y-y-yes I-I’m coming” Liz said and shakily picked up the bowl of chocolate, she was walking slowly in your direction. She was concentrating very hard on the bowl in her hands as if not to spill any of it, she was just a few feet away from turning the corner of the big counter when the same guy again screamed at her “LIZ!!!” she turned her head left to look at the guy who was screaming at her and thus lost her concentration. Dante turned to look at Liz when he heard the guy screaming at her. She lost her balance and started to fall forward, she quickly put her right foot in front of her, but it failed and slipped out from under her. She fell forward and swung the bowl forward as well still holding onto it though “Oh no Lilly!!” you heard Dante yell as you saw the chocolate from the bowl flying at you and all you could do was gasp and close your eyes tightly.

You slowly opened your eyes and saw everyone staring at you, you looked down at yourself and saw that you were covered in chocolate from your chin to your knees. You stared at yourself for a few more minutes then looked in front of you and saw Liz lying on the floor on her stomach, the bowl still in her hands. She looked at you in total shock, she suddenly jumped up onto her feet and came over to you standing in front of you. “Oh no miss I’m so sorry, I’m sorry… please forgive me, I didn’t mean to it was an accident, I’m really really sorry” Liz apologized over and over again and you just stared at her “Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I did this I’m so sor-” you cut Liz off when you suddenly started to giggle then a few seconds later it turned into a laugh, Dante joined you and soon the whole kitchen was laughing except for Liz who had a questioning expression on her face.

After a while everybody stopped laughing, you looked at Liz again “I’m really very sorry” she apologized again looking down “Liz… it’s totally fine” you said smiling warmly at her. She looked up at you surprised, “Hey! Now I can tell people that I’ve been covered with chocolate once” you said cheerfully, Liz was till staring at you with worry in her eyes “I forgive you, it’s fine, besides it was only and accident” you said trying to make her feel better. She looked down then up at you again with a smile on her face and said “Thank you” you returned the smile. You took your left hand and raised it to your left cheek and with your index finger wiped some of the chocolate that landed on your cheek off then put your finger in your mouth and sucked off the chocolate then took your finger out of your mouth again “Yummm! I taste good!” you squeaked and everybody once again burst out laughing, even Liz did this time. You looked over at Dante and he was shaking his head as he was laughing at you, he stopped and looked at you then smiled crossing his arms. You looked at him and smiled back then you stuck out your tongue playfully and closed your eyes while still giggling.
