The boy looked away with a slight blush when the girl smiled and nodded in reply, a little unsure about giving or being given direct eye contact. Taking the tablet back carefully, he switched the voice back to the setting he usually used. [color=662d91]"You're welcome."[/color] 

The British accent he had become so used to hearing was oddly comforting after being unable to communicate as regularly even for just that afternoon. Perhaps he had become a little too dependent on the device, but it was just so much easier to have it around. [color=662d91]"The rooms are just upstairs. I'll take you to them."[/color] 

Turning back to the hallway, he slowly led them up to the stairs, trying to make sure that he didn't lose them on the way until he reached the upper landing. From there, he brought them down the dormitory hallway until he found two of the empty rooms still available. [color=662d91]"These tow should still be open. We will be called to breakfast by the bell in the morning. Have a good night."[/color] Bowing his head slightly out of habit, he quickly left back down the hall to his own room to get ready for bed. The next day would likely be even busier, with the return to the normal schedule, so getting some rest sounded like the best idea in the world at the moment.

When he woke up the next morning to the sound of the bell, the dark haired boy blinked the sleep slowly out of equally dark eyes and noticed that somehow, he had gotten through the night without another nightmare. Shifting his head on the pillow to look over at the tablet sitting on the table near his bed, along with his bell, he stayed there thinking for another minute before getting up and starting to ready himself for the day. 

Once again, he knew that he shouldn't keep the housekeeper waiting if he could avoid it. That was routine. He couldn't break it without permission.
