Chapter 3 – We Finally Meet.
Everyone was at breakfast the next morning -with the exception of Sarah.-
"So where's our guest?" Alan asked.
"She hasn't appeared yet." Virgil said.
"Is she okay?" Gordon asked.
"I'm sure she's fine." Jeff answered. "She just needs a little time to adjust."
After breakfast Tin Tin went to see how Sarah was doing. She knocked on the door but got no reply, she slowly opened the door and looked in. She observed that Sarah was looking out the window with no indication that she had heard her.
"Sarah?" she said as she cautiously entered the room still she got no acknowledgement. She walked over to her and placed a hand on her shoulder.
Sarah jumped at the sudden touch and looked round instantly. She saw Tin Tin in her room and looked slightly confused.
"How long have you been there?"
"Only a minute or two." She answered.
Sarah gave a nod then turned back to the window.
"Are you okay?" Tin Tin asks with concern.
Again Sarah nods.
"You sure?"
"Yeah."
Tin Tin then takes a seat opposite her and said "You know you can't stay in your room forever."
Surprised by Tin Tin's sudden statement Sarah looks at her and blinks.
"What's wrong with that?" she asked innocently.
"It's unsociable for one."
Sarah shrugged, "So I'm unsociable." She said in a 'don't really care' kind of voice.
"Come on." She said grabbing Sarah's arm.
"Huh? What? Where are we going?" surprised at the sudden commotion.
"I'm taking you on a tour of the house."
"That's not really necessary." She replied while still getting dragged along.
"You wanna get lost trying to find the bathroom in the middle of the night?" Tin Tin said half sarcastically half jokingly.
Sarah thought for a moment then said, "Good point."
As they walked around Tin Tin showed Sarah where everything was. Sarah paid particular attention to where the bathroom was in relation to her room to which Tin Tin gave a small laugh. They were just walking out of the kitchen when they bumped into Gordon.
"Hi Gordon." Tin Tin greeted.
"Hey Tin Tin, Sarah."
Sarah gave her usual nod in reply.
"You know, I'm beginning to think that you can't talk." Gordon joked.
Sarah's eyes harden as she looked at him but still she said nothing.
"Nah, she just doesn't like you, Gordon." Tin Tin joked back.
Sarah smiled -a proper smile unlike the weak ones she normally gave- trying hard not to chuckle or giggle.
"Come on, Sarah." Tin Tin said as they continued on their way.
"Where are you going?" Gordon asked curious.
"On a tour." Sarah suddenly said surprising him.
"Mind if I tag along?"
Sarah gave Tin Tin a quick look then shrugged, if he wanted to waste his time who was she to argue. They continued on their way, going from this to that until they came to Jeff's study. As Sarah looked round she saw a mural and made her way over to it. This made Gordon and Tin Tin a little nervous but they tried not to show it, they both gave each other a quick look before looking back at Sarah.
"Who's that?" Sarah asked turning to them as she pointed out a brown haired male.
"That's Scott." Gordon answered walking up besides her.
/Scott? Now where have I heard that name before/ she wondered 'Looks like you've got your work cut out for you, Gordon. Where's Scott?' Virgil's voice said in her head. She then noticed someone else she didn't recognise, "And him?" gesturing with her head at the white-blonde.
"That's John." Another voice said.
Tin Tin, Sarah and Gordon all turned after hearing the new voice.
"Hey Scott." Gordon said greeting his brother.
/Virgil was right. She is kinda cute./ Scott thought as he looked at Sarah.
Sarah gave a nod as acknowledge his presence but said nothing more, feeling a tad awkward as Scott looked at her. She hated it when people did that, it madeher feel like there was something wrong with her.
"Well that about does it for the tour." Tin Tin said breaking the silence that suddenly engulfed the room.
Sarah looked over at Tin Tin and gave another nod before walking off back to her room.
"Alan's been looking for you, Tin Tin." Scott suddenly said.
"Alan?" Tin Tin said trying to keep the excitement out of her voice.
Scott nodded.
"Why?" trying to hide the fact that she was itching to go.
"He wouldn't say."
"Better go see what he wants." Walking out, if a little hurriedly.
