*After being in the psycho ward for so long, being fed the swill that passed for food, the thought of a real meal made her stomach growl.*
"I don't know- anything!"
*She took Brandi's hand, and stood up, smiling.*

*Brandi laughed softly and led her to the kitchen. Gesturing to the chair at the small table, she started digging through cupboards and pulling down food. Fresh bread and leftover roast, some root vegetables and fresh fruit. She piled the, on the table in front of Beatrice.*
"Just let me know if there's anything else..."
*She set a bottle of wine and a glass on the table as well.*

*She sat down, watching Brandi prepare the food. Beatrice's eyes widened at the abundance.*
"Oh, no this is looks wonderful! Thank you so much."

*Brandi grinned.*
"Any time. I'm just happy to help."
*She sat across from her and grabbed a peach.*
"So...what sort of job are you looking to do?"

*She started eating hungrily.*
"I'd just assumed I could be a maid, or something. Cleaning and such. I'm not very good at cooking, but I could learn."

I need to keep you away from sharp and pointy temptation.
*Brandi shook her head gently, smile not faltering.*
"Oh, don't worry. I love to cook. I could definitely use the extra hands with the rooms though. Especially with the influx of boarders."
*She looked up hopefully.*
"You wouldn't mind? I'm afraid it's not very exciting work."

**BEATRICE**
"I don't mind," *she said, her smile brightening.* "Anything to have a normal job and a home!"
Maybe if I can prove to him that I am normal, Toby will take me back!

Don't count on it. Boys can be stupid.
*Brandi smiled and nodded.*
"That sounds great. Will you need anything special? Anything that you'd like while you're here?"

**AS BEATRICE**
"No, thank you. You've been far too kind already. And I really don't need anything."
*She smiled gratefully.*

*Brandi stood suddenly, as if remembering something.*
"Actually...there is. One moment."
*She disappeared for a moment and returned shortly, presenting Beatrice with a key.*
"Up the stairs, near the end of the hall."
*She smiled sweetly.*
"I figured you could use a good night's sleep at some point."

**BEATRICE**
*She smiled.*
"Thank you," *she said, taking the key. "I'd nearly forgotten. Oh, and," *She looked down at her dress, and her dirty body.* "I'll need a bath and maybe some clothes to borrow, if it's not too much to ask."

*Brandi smiled and nodded.*
"Of course. The bathroom is at the end of the hall. There should be a robe in the room. I'll have some fresh clothing set out by the time you're done. Would that be all right?"

"Wonderful, thank you so much!"
*She finished her food and stood to rinse her plate off at the sink.*
"I'll go to my room now. I wouldn't want to waste any more of your time."

*Brandi grinned and shook her head.*
"You're not wasting my time. As an employee, you're worth my time, every time."
*She glanced at the door and back to her.*
"But you should get moving on. You'll feel better after."

**NEW DAY**
Sunflower stood outside of Beatrices room, she had been given her address by a nice girl she met online, she wasn't sure if the girl even knew that she was coming. Being Snapes assitant didn't make you many friends around here. She reached up and knocked on the door. Please don't eat me!
