*Scarlett knocked on the front door, very excited and looking very pretty in GASP! OMG! a flattering blue dress.*

*Micaela had seen her pull up and was at the door, waiting for her with one of the male staff members.*
"Scarlett!" *She cried, opening the door and giving Scarlett a huge hug. Her hair had grown out to shoulder-length, and was shining in the winter sunlight.* "Dear God, you grew again." *She sighed, grinning and looking up at her.* "How's the weather up there?" *She teased.*

It's so good to see you again! *She laughed and hugged her godmother again.* And I love your hair!

*Micaela grinned widely.*
"Well, we're still pretty much horseless, but they should be here tomorrow. Want to see your room? Thomas can take your bags up." *She said, motioning to the man behind her.*

Okay! *She smiled brightly, following her godmother into the house. Her hazel eyes widened.* Wow. This house is gorgeous, Aunt Micaela.

*Micaela giggled.*
My God, I know. I nearly fainted when I walked in. And when I got here, the whole staff was assembled, and I was dripping wet. I looked like a drowned kitten.

*She giggled, motioning Thomas to follow them as she led Scarlett up the grand staircase.*
"It is. We can talk all about it once we get to your room." *She said.*

*Micaela led her up into the East Wing. Normally, as a rule, visitors who weren't related didn't stay as the same wing as the owners, but Scarlett was basically family and Micaela had raised a minor stink about where Scarlett was to be placed.*
*She opened the door to the room, which was well-appointed but not too girly, mostly in blue, and perfect for Scarlett. The bed was king-sized and had a huge canopy, and the window looked out over the gardens.*
"Well? What d'you think?"

Oh. My. God. *Her jaw fell open and she almost tackled her godmother into the ground.* It's too perfect! Thank you so much!

*Micaela laughed, hugging Scarlett back.*
"I knew you'd like it. Most of the other rooms are either outdated or too gaudy. My personal maid (Jesus it feels weird to say that) will come in and help us unpack." *She said giddily. Thomas left the bags on the bed.*

EEE! *She giggled and then in a VERY cliche way rushed over to the bed, falling onto it backwards with a happy sigh.* It's beautiful!

*Micaela sat crosslegged on the bed.*
"So. Before Alice comes up, I have to tell you. The housekeeper hates me. Beware Mrs. Danvers."
