"Oh, alright." Sophie nodded and leaned back in her seat. She'd figured that Nori would be tired. It wouldn't be good for anyone if Nori was tired and would fall asleep in the chair, after forcing himself to stay up and watch tv and drink tea. After all, he was their guest and she wanted him to get a good first impression. She watched as he spoke to her mother, politely declining her invitation. He wasn't to blame though. Flying for a long time and then dealing with the time difference was probably hard. At least he would probably get a good nights sleep.

Catherine looked at Nori as well as he spoke, nodding. "Alright." She nodded and could understand what he might feel. His journey would probably have him exhausted by now. "Hmm? Oh, no not really." The woman said. The Starks had no schedule for the next day, so if the two of them wanted to sleep in, they could. Sophie rarely did for very long though, unless she had been out the night before. "I'll just make some breakfast for you when you get up." Catherine smiled and sipped her water. She was glad to hear that Sophie had been nice and helped him get settled in, but had expected no less either. Nori's offer to help clear the table was declined. She insisted that she did that and he should go get some sleep if he wanted that. And so Nori did. They said goodnight and began clearing the table, spending the last of the night drinking a cup of tea and watching tv, talking about how it was having Nori there now.



She faintly heard someone moving about outside her room, but Sophie was half asleep. It didn't bother her much anyway since she usually woke up around this time. Even on weekends, unless she greatly needed to sleep. When she finally couldn't sleep anymore, she swung her legs over the side of the bed and sat there for a few moments. Sophie put a t-shirt on that was many sizes to big and went to the middle of her thighs. Then she quietly opened her door and headed out, contemplating going downstairs for something to eat. It was seemingly a hard decision as it took a few moments. Eventually Sophie settled on a piece of toast, but brought it upstairs again and sat down in front of the TV where they had watched Les Misérables last night. She turned it on and turned the volume down, so she didn't wake up Nori again and pulled her legs up to her chest. This was one of the reasons why she liked waking up early.
