"As long as you're here this is your room." Grace promised him.

David smiled and climbed into the bed, still fully clothed, and pulled the covers up to his chin. "I really like you." He said with a yawn before falling asleep.

"Goodnight David." Grace said comfortingly before quietly leaving the room, going into her room and getting into her bed, falling asleep.

David dreamt that he was under those stairs again, the night his parents died in front of his eyes. This time though, someone was behind him. Holding him and comforting him. He watched his parents die again, the attackers watching their crimson blood spread across the floor and under the stairs. Then they drank what was left out of his parents bodies, not knowing that two of the family was under the stairs. Footsteps came speeding down the stairs, the wail of a child breaking the silence. The housekeeper had brought down another baby from upstairs, not knowing that the attackers were done with the appetizer. They attacked the housekeeper and the baby as well, blood spilling from the stairs onto the hidden children's head.

David thrashed around in his bed, trying to escape the glares of the two monsters as they looked through the stairs. He screamed in the dream, a loud wail coming out of his sleeping mouth as well.

Grace suddenly awoke in her bed, hearing David scream. Worried something had happened to him she got out of bed, unsheathed her katana, opened the door and ran into David's Room. But when she got there she saw nothing, just David having a nightmare. Still concerned, she ran to David and lifted him so that his upper half was upright. "David. Wake up. Its only a nightmare."

David woke up to Grace gently shaking him awake, tears in his eyes. He leaned on her shoulder and cried, afraid that the monsters that took his parents would come and hurt him. "I h-had t-the n-nig-nighmare a-about the n-night my p-parents d-died." He managed to stamper through tears.

Grace hugged him back. "Its okay. It was just a nightmare. Here, you can sleep in bed with me if it'll help you sleep."

David nodded and got up, fixing the bed behind him. "Thank you." He said sleepily, rubbing the tears out of his eyes.

Grace lead the way to her room, sheathing her katana when she entered. Upon looking at the room, the only odd things in the room were a rack of katana and a bed that obviously used to belong to her parents. "Go ahead and climb in."

David walked over to the bed, climbing in on the left side. He noticed that the bed seemed oddly familiar but dismissed it as part of the dream.

Grace got into bed next to him after closing the door. "Goodnight David. Pleasant dreams."

David snuggled beside Grace, falling asleep once again. This time he had no bad dreams, only good ones about his life if his parents were still alive.

Grace easily fell asleep next to David, his prescence reminding her a lot of her brothers. All through the night she had a pleasant dream of when she was younger and her family was still alive.

David woke around nine, stretching his arms above his head. He walked over to the bathroom quietly as he could, trying not to disturb Grace.

Although feeling an absence next to her, grace continued to sleep.

David went to the bathroom and washed his hands, peeking around the corner before exiting through Grace's bedroom door. He padded silently down the hall to the kitchen, wanting to know if Emily was awake yet.

Emily was the only one up out of all of the maids. She was in charge of making breakfast for the mistress and she took her job seriously as she worked in the kitchen.

David walked into the kitchen rubbing the sleep out of his eyes, still dressed in the clothes from yesterday. "Goooood morning." He yawned, watching Emily work.

"Good morning David." Emily greeted him.

(Ugh, I'm sooooo bored. Wby?)

David sat on the stood he stood on yesterday, stretching his hands over his head again. "Watchadoing?" He yawned, watching Emily cook.
