Sera finished her dessert happily and wiped her mouth afterwards. “Well, I’d best head to bed, Shall you escort me to my chambers your highness?” She asked expecting him to escort her and waited for him to do so before heading off to rest from the night’s debacle.

——

“Very well, I’ll Leave you to it Gavin.” Robin said. He turned to Kezia who decided to head for bath and bed as well. He nods at both. His mouth twitching at how he shouldn’t wait too long to apologize. “Yes, I shall not wait long. Good night, myilady.” He affirmed and waited for her to leave. When she did, he turned around and only commented this about what happened.

“That went well.” He muttered as he prepared for his own bath.

The next morning had Robin apologize profusely to Sera, who only raised her hand to make him stop and say “Just never do it again, but if you must, hit yourself with it.” She said, both accepting it and insulting him at the same time.

“Oof, Alright then..” is what the servants heard on the matter.

The rest of that morning was... somewhat uneventful for Robin as it consisted of mainly seeing how his friends were adjusting to living in the manor. He currently was looking for a moment to rest and have have lunch as the noonday sun hovered in the air. He lounged in a chair situated in the garden, looking out at the flowers and small trees, and observed the trail that lead to a spot near the forest, which seemed to be a bright meadow with a hill for picnic purposes.

“I’ll have to jot that down on my list of things to try out with Lady Kezia.” He muttered to no one in particular.

“I’m sure a picnic would be nice Captain sir.” Gaston said, startling the young earl out of his wits!

“Gaston! What the hell?!”

“I brought lunch. Larry made his best one, beef roast and assortment of vegetables.” Gaston explained. “Was I interrupting your planning sir?

“No, no I’m fine. Just had a rough day yesterday.” He muttered.

”Rough being the understatement...”

Sera in the meantime was lounging on the balcony that rested outside her bedroom, with a small table and a plate of meat and vegetables neatly cut for lunch. “What a pleasant day. I wonder how communications with my Lord Husband to be will go today.” She mused aloud, wondering ifmher sister was nearby, as she took a bit of meat and nibbled it lightly.

“Where did the Earl get such a talented cook?” She mused again, this time in her head.
