AN- This hopefully will hold you guys until next week, my maternal grandmother died yesterday so we've been busy with funeral preparations. Did you know a funeral now a day cost $6,000 freaking dollars?
Mythriel had been anxiously waiting for the new guest to come. She'd put on her best clothes, put on make up, did her hair, and then bounced around on her heels until her brother held her in place.
And then the boy had shown up on a motorbike. In a leather jacket, and wind tossed hair to boot.
It was too much for Mythriel. As soon as that doorbell rang, she had bounded out of her brother's hold, barreled to the door, and straight into the boy's arms. Which knocked him off of the steps, and smacked his head on the concrete.
Mythriel was immediately grounded for at least a week, and guards were positioned at her bedroom doors so she couldn't sneak out.
Meanwhile, her parents asked a favor from Joe to heal the boy before they were sued by his grandmother, which he gladly did.
And a day after the healing, Rex woke up. His head didn't feel bad at all, and everything still worked. He sat up in the bed, and swung his legs over to stand on the floor.
There was a knock on the door, and then the red haired boy he'd seen in the castle garden came into his room.
"Oh good, you're awake. I'm just warning you now, it was my sister who knocked you down those steps. She's extremely crazy about you already, but has been banned to her room until next week. Can I get you anything?"
"No, I'm quite fine. What's your name?"
"Richard, my sisters is Mythriel. We're considered the hell cats of this house, so its better that you are on our good side. Well, my good side. If she could get out of her room she'd never let go of you. Which is why I'm in here to offer my protection. Only I know her secret tickle spots."
Rex laughed, and replied, "I'd like that protection. She's already tried to kill me, I need one friend around here to save me. Tell me, what are you interested in?"
Their talk of various things went on for a couple hours until it was time for dinner. Richard showed Rex where the dining room was, and also where his sisters room was so Rex could avoid it until she wasn't so…. joyful of his presence.
Although it did make him feel a little happy. No one except his sister had been that happy upon seeing him.

Aly was cleaning up some scuffs in the hallway when she had spotted her brother. Richard had been showing him around, and she'd just hidden herself when they'd come around the corner she was at. He looked really good, especially after being knocked down by an over enthusiastic girl.
And there was also the problem that whenever Richard was around, the ring on her finger would send weird vibes through her veins and into her brain. Vibes of longing and other feelings she couldn't name. And the ring would not come off her finger, no matter how much she tried.
She snuck back to her cleaning, a lot happier that she had someone at the mansion that loved her.
If only she knew the truth…
