"It's all right I'll be there with you" she smiled her honest smile and led the girl out of the room.

**NEW NIGHT**
*Dorian arrived at the inn and paid the driver. He wasn't sure what time it was- At least four in the morning. The front room was deserted as he entered, carefully carrying his painting, wrapped in gray cloth. He wasn't sure how to get ahold of the innkeeper at this time of night without waking the guests as well, and he certainly didn't want to sit in the lobby until morning...*

*Brandi heard the cab pull up. So much for getting back to sleep. She untangled herself from Cry-Baby's embrace and threw on her robe. She lit a candle and snuck downstairs. Dorian? She didn't expect him. But she should have. She spoke quietly as to not wake the other guests.*
"Can I help you, sir? Do you need a room?"

*He nodded.*
"Yes, please. I must apologise for my rudeness in coming at such an hour, but it seems I had no choice in the matter."

Especially when you do something stupid like poach pretty young things.
*Brandi just smiled sympathetically.*
"It's fine, really. These things do happen."
*She quickly retrieved a key for him.*
"It's just upstairs on the right. Will you be all right with that?"
*She pointed to the painting.*

((She started this whole mess; poor Dorian had nothing to do with it! He's an innocent victim, damn it!))
"No, thank you. I will not require your assistance; though, I must ask that neither your nor any of your staff come to my room to clean or anything else unless invited. Is that clear?"
*He started up the stairs.*

"Very well, sir. I'll leave the fresh linens outside your door. Sleep well."
*With that, Brandi watched him as he went to his room, hoping to be back in bed soon.*

***NEW DAY***
*Dorian's things arrived with a note.*
Sir,
I to regret what has transpired. However, I am not ready to address the matter. Perhaps another time on more neutral grounds.
Best wishes for the future.

*Brandi saw the things upstairs and knocked on Dorian's door softly.*
"Sir? Are you in?"

*Dorian opened the door, looking much calmer than the night before.*
"Yes?"

*Brandi curtsied politely.*
"You're things have arrived, sir. With this."
*She handed him the note.*
"Would you care for some breakfast, sir?"

*He took the note and read it with a frown.*
"Thank you. That would be very good, yes."
*He left the room and shut the door.*

*Brandi smiled and started down the hall with him.*
"What would you like, sir? I have most trimmings on hand. You have but to ask."

"Whatever you have is fine," *he said, walking with her.*
"I apologise for my late arrival last night. I hope I didn't bother any other guests..."

*Brandi smiled and shook her head.*
"No one's mentioned it. It's really not a problem."
*She led him into the kitchen and gestured that he might sit while she pulled out breakfast supplies.*
"So will you be with us long, sir?"
