Not Your Average Butler... [EasilyAmused x Knuxieh]

Alex had begun to make a comment that she would be fine, but her butler had come around the corner out of nowhere it seemed, and stole her out of his arms. He greatly disapproved of this, indeed glaring daggers at the back of James’ head. She was clearly fine, no reason to get all twisted about. Tch. Hired help. He rolled his eyes as he grabbed the blanket and pillow before sitting in a chair by himself. This sucked. Once James brought around the snacks, he hoarded a whole bowl to himself, getting popcorn everywhere.

Before she knew what was happening, Alex wasn’t holding onto her any longer. Instead, James had heard her startled scream and was now in his arms. Her cheeks flushed, and as he gave a disapproving tone, she opened her mouth to explain herself, but he swiftly answered it before she got it out. She knew why he was here, she was just trying to grab something..Once she was back on the couch, she held the controller and listened as he went to get snacks.

Dianne followed James back into the living room after he had grabbed Freya. She made sure to see if she was alright before thanking James as she took the pillow and blanket, sitting in a chair nearby Freya. “You don’t even have to pick a scary movie, Freya. I don’t think we need any more scares this evening.” She joked lightly. Hearing this, she nodded. “Yeah. I think a musical sounds good. It’s a good mix of karaoke meets movie.” She giggled, and put on “The Sound Of Music”. James had come back with a small assortment of snacks, and once the movie was over, everyone was pretty tired. Freya thanked them for coming, and seen them out. Alex didn’t even look over at her as he left, pretty much heading downstairs to go to another building where he stayed, but Dianne gave her a hug, and thanked James for the tenth time before heading right across the hall and closing her door with a click. Freya shut the door and locked it before sighing to herself.

What time was it…? She could have sworn during the movie she heard James’ pocket watch chime, but she wasn’t sure… Freya went back into the living room and turned off the television and turned off the console that she had Netflix installed on before beginning to fold the sheets that were on the ground. Dianne had folded hers, but Alex left his sprawled about…She glanced up, and re-confirmed that it was indeed after midnight for James. She gave a forced smile. “You’re more than free to go, James. I put a lot of stuff on you today. I’ll get this cleaned up and head to bed. It's the least I can do for all the trouble some of my guests caused.” She gave a weak laugh, and with that, put the two blankets on a nearby chair, and the pillows as well. There was still some popcorn on the floor, and she began picking them up to put in the trash. “I’m…sorry I gave you a scare.” She apologized, standing up with the empty bowls from the movie favors. She didn’t like that she could still feel Alex’s arm around her. It felt awkward, and thinking about it made her uncomfortable as she shifted her weight slightly from foot to foot.

The trio continued talking about school assignments. Dianne began telling stories of what experience she had sewing. Her mother was apparently a designer abroad and she was here studying to be able to intern with her. Alex looked confused and rolled his eyes. “You have to go to school in order to study under your own mother? That’s rough. I mean, maybe she sent you here for a reason?” He asked, shrugging. Dianne shook her head. “No, Alex. Actually – I wanted to come here. I don’t’ have to do any schooling if I didn’t want to. I’m my mother’s daughter and could get by just as well as the rest of them, but I didn’t want anyone thinking I thought I was better so I wanted to still get some formal training anyway. If you must know. Besides, what is it that your parents even do?” She questioned, looking unimpressed. This was a chance for Alex to talk about himself, he nearly leapt at the chance.

“My parents? Oh – you know. They just…kind of one of the larger contributors to this place. So that’s why all the rooms look super awesome and not dreary and depressing. I don’t bother to really remember what they do. All I know is I get to chill out here and meet a lot of ho…interesting people.” He cleared his throat at the end. “You know how it is. Right, Freya?” He asked, looking at her with a smile.

Freya blinked, and noticed he was looking right at her. Her cheeks flushed with a bit of color at the unwanted attention. “Uhm. Yeah. I’m kind of shy sometimes, but when I get comfortable it’s pretty great meeting all sorts of people.” She agreed, tucking some hair behind her ear. James came in, and she looked a bit relieved to see him. Her eyes sparkled as she saw the cooking James had been working on. “Oh, this looks amazing thank you so much, James.” She beamed towards him and Dianna also was star stuck. “I’ve never seen this before. It’s so pretty!” Freya jumped at the chance to talk about James’ cooking presentation. “I know right?! James is so awesome in the kitchen. Sometimes he makes things that I swear I shouldn’t eat just because of how nice they look.” This caused a giggling exchange between her and Dianne, but Alex nodded that it was in fact – nice to look at.

The three of them ate, and once they were finished, Dianne thanked James again for the meal. Freya reached for the plates to gather them in a stack, but Alex reached over and swiftly took it from her. “I got it, Freya.” He stood and walked into the kitchen before putting them into the sink, giving James a pat on the back. “Thanks, man. Food was great.” He commented, walking back to the young ladies in the living area. “So, what do you guys want to do now?” He asked curiously. Dianne looked around and shrugged. “I suppose we can do that karaoke thing that you wanted to do, Alex.” She giggled. He shook his head. “I don’t want to discourage you guys from singing after I blow you all away.” He grinned, eliciting a few giggles from the girls. “Alex, please. Maybe if I weren’t so full off of dinner I would totally take you on, but…I just don’t have it in me.” Freya snapped her fingers as she got an idea. “How about we all watch a movie? We can try karaoke next time, haha.” Everyone agreed. “Sure,” Dianne smiled. “But, what kind of movie?”

Alex stood up and gave his best evil laugh impersonation. “A scary movie, of course! Surely you have one, don’t you Freya?” He asked, turning to her. “Uhm…well..I can set up Netflix and I’m sure there’s something on there.” She smiled, doing her best to remain hospitable. They settled on a movie and before it began, Freya turned to James. “Hey, James?” She began. “I would go get them myself, but I’m not sure where you put the extra blankets. Can you grab them, please?” She smiled. Alex decided he would chime in. “And can you make popcorn, too?” Dianne lightly hit his arm. “Didn’t you just eat a totally awesome meal?” Alex shrugged. “Hey, man. Popcorn always goes with movie. I always have room.” Freya put a finger to her chin throughtfully. “This is…true. I think we still have some of the seasonings in the cabinet…” She stood up from the couch and went into the kitchen while James went to fetch blankets for her and her guests. Turning the light on, she moved a chair to get on one of the counters to get a better look of what might be inside. Alex followed her, and startled her by suddenly grabbing her around the waist, which caused her to scream in a panic.

Dianne rushed over to see what had happened, and Alex blinked, still holding onto her waist. “Woah, Freya. Chill. It’s just me. It’s dangerous up there.” He grinned at her, showing he meant no harm. Freya felt silly for screaming like that. “Can you…please put me down?” She asked, her cheeks flushing. She hoped that James didn’t go into panic mode. She didn’t even mean to be that loud.

Freya giggled at the text she got in response to his joke. 'Well, only if it's okay. Wouldn't want to distract you.' She talked to the girl nearby about the flea market this weekend, and she agreed that it sounded like a good time. However, a young man in class overheard them and was soon in conversation. Before she knew it class was over and the three of them were headed to her apartment.

"Really, guys. My place isn't even that nice. I think I still have boxes to unpack." A male voice could be heard through the door. "I'm sure it's fine, Freya. No judgement. Cmon and open the door." Freya opened the door, her unexpected guests coming in behind her. "Hello, James. I've...got company. Two extras. Sorry. I just...kind of happened." The male looked around and greeted James as he took a seat on the couch. The woman smiled and took a seat in a chair nearby. This left Freya to sit next to the gentleman. "This is Alex, and Dianne." She introduced.

Alex smiled. "Freya. You didn't tell me you had a karaoke machine. We got to do it." Freya gave a light laugh. "Yeah, maybe one evening we should do it." Alex glanced at Freya, giving her a look over. "Yeah, we should." It sounded innocent enough. The three kept their chatter up until dinner was finished.

All too quickly, James was rousing Freya from her slumber and she reluctantly pulled herself out of the tangle of warm bedsheets that called her name to stay just a mere five minutes longer. She reached for her glasses and upon getitng her vision back, gave a yawn and stretched before heading out of her room and thanking James for her bookbag. She had asked to have snacks packed for her classes sometimes and waved as she shut the door behind her, but not before letting out another yawn.

On her way to her class,her phone chirped and she looked a bit confused as she pulled her cellphone out of her pocket and upon reading James' message, she felt a tinge of heat gather in her cheeks. She was relieved that she wasn't the only one feeling this way, and took a moment to wonder if they should hang out. It would be similar to karaoke that they had engaged in just the other evening, except they would both be exploring a town they had not really been in before. They would be hanging out at friends! Her fingers quickly tapped out a response.

Sure! I would love to hang out around town with you, James! It would give us some great time together to learn the local events and what kinds of entertainment is around for us to do when we get some free time either between my classes or during breaks or weekends, even! We can totally talk and make plans about it tonight when you get off work! Talk to you then! I'll see what intel I can gather in class about fun things for friends to do.

Freya hit send and put her cellphone back into her pocket, giggling to herself with delight. This was easier than she thought it would be. She was worried that it would be fairly hard to get to James in a friendship way, but they both seemed to really enjoy the other's company. She rolled her eyes. Of course. If they didn't, James wouldn't be here with her in the first place. But, she had made it across campus and was heading into her Sewing class, and began jotting down notes about different sewing techniques and hand sewing tips as well. The thought of making a little stuffed companion made her grin as she looked at the young woman next to her and while there was a lag in discussion began asking around about things to do for fun. She couldn't wait to get back to James this evening and talk about what they should do over the weekend.

Sara raised an eyebrow. "Well, why don't you try re-connecting with her? I'm sure she's learned something from the people - er dragons over the years." She gave Makan's scales a reasurring pat. "There's no harm in trying to go find her. I say we leave early tomorrow morning in search for her. You seem like you really like her. Better to try and see than to always wonder forever. What do you say?"

Blinking after he released their connection, she looked at her hand for a moment before sighing softly. "She looks lovely. I noticed that you used the past tense. I thought you dragons lived for many, many years. If not for you, the dragon who was terrorizing us would have continued to do so for who knows how long...If it isn't too personal," Sara gave pause as she watched his sadness and bit her lip. He had to have expected her to question what happened. "What happened to her? If you don't mind telling me. I can see that thinking about it causes you a deal of dismay.."

Her eyes widened. "Okay.." She reached jer hand towards him and gently laid her palm against his brow as instructed.

"What kinds of things do you look for in a mate? I mean, aside from that dragon we were sacraficing maidens to, there aren't many dragons around this area. I'm not sure if staying here is your best best if you're looking for another dragon." She chuckled. "I'm sure you'll find someone in no time. You seem like you have a fair amount going for you. If nothing else, you could always serenade her." Sara teased.
