LACHLAN'S POV
I heard the girl in my room muttering something about being on land and her parents then suddenly, she screamed while crying. Confused, I went by her side and kissed her. She froze, up for a second and everything was once again quiet. We stayed like that for a while, just staring at each other's eyes. Her eyes were dark, like a pool someone can drown in. Then as if electrocuted, she pushed me to the ground. "Why did you kiss me?" She asked rubbing of her mouth like she had eaten some sort of bad food or poison. "Mph,"I just scoffed, stood up and turned away from her. "Oh I'll send someone to help you clean up," I said before walking out of the room. I could hear muffled voices from the room, but I couldn't care much, she was obviously complaining.
I went to the living room and asked one of the servants, Mary, to help the girl in my room clean up. She looked at me confused probably as to why I had a girl in my room, but I never gave her any follow-up statements, she might as well ask the fool how she got here.
MARY'S POV
I reached our young master's bedroom and planted a gentle knock on the door, wondering who the damsel was. The young master had never brought a girl home except Olivia, who has never entered his room.
After all minute of no response, I decided to enter the room. It's not like I was expecting any response, maybe she was asleep. But when I got inside the room, I almost got a heart attack. The young girl staring back at me was nothing that I expected, she was a disaster." you look like a thug, young lady," I said to myself.
"Um excuse me, what part of me screams a thug?" She asked leaving me puzzled, "is she stealing thoughts now?"
"You just said that out loud old lady,"
"Sorry child, I'm not always this rude, where are my manners. Don't mind me I'm Mary I'm here to groom you," I said shooting her a smile that didn't quite reach my eyes. "Emma Watson, people call me Em," she said looking around as if I wasn't even there, then she turned to me as if she remembered something, "what is grooming?if it means sailing I'm in,"
"Oh dear you like to sail, that explains your outfit."
"Why does everyone keep saying that? My mom made me this."she said gesturing to herself. "Well sweetheart you don't want to get out there looking like that,"I said leading her to the bathroom,"come on, take your bath."
"How am I supposed to use the bathroom?"she asked when I was about to leave. "You get in the bath tub honey,"
"In this thing ?"she asked and I nodded.
"What if I get sucked in?"
"That is the most absurd thing I've heard,"I answered laughing at how stupid she was.
After an hour of ups and downs I finally helped her clean up , and as expected she kept on complaining on how uncomfortable the clothes were.
