So you can picture what they look like, Katerina has straight hair down to her waist the same golden colour as Jace and golden eyes. She is short with freckles like her mum. Nathaniel has curly hair like his mum but it is white-blonde. He has green eyes and is tall. Katerina is about 5'2 and Nathaniel is about 6'1

Kat's P.O.V.

" You should come inside, it's chilly out there, you'll catch a cold, " Sebastian said beckoning for me to come. I walked inside my new home and was immediately amazed at how big it was.

" I'll take you to your room so you can settle in, I already took your bags up, " Nathaniel said I was hardly paying attention to what he was saying, still taking in my surroundings with an open mouth. He took my silence as agreement and started to walk up the stairs, leaving me to run after him when I realised where he had gone.

My room was on the third floor and you could probably have fit my entire apartment inside it. I even had my own bathroom, equipped with fluffy bath towels and fancy looking soaps and handwashes.

" Thank you, " I said breathlessly. " Anything for you, sister, " he said, " when you have unpacked come downstairs for dinner, I trust that you can find the kitchen by yourself. " I nodded and went back to admiring my room as Nathaniel walked away, to his own room I suspect.

After I finished unpacking I padded downstairs to see what was for dinner, Nathaniel was waiting for me at a circular table that I suppose is the dining table. This all seemed very ordinary, except for what was actually On the table; a feast of sorts, there was everything from fermented vegetables to pasta to this fancy fish thing that looked absolutely disgusting but probably cost hundreds of dollars. It was all so fancy that I suddenly

Felt extremely underdressed in a pair of jeans and a tank top.

" Wow! You didn't make all this did you? " I said shocked at the amount of food in front of me.

" Well the cook only works on weekdays so I had to cook tonight, but don't worry she'll be back tomorrow. You don't have any allergies do you? "

" No, " I said, sitting down across from him, not sure what to do next. I was starving, I hadn't eaten since yesterday with all the things going on and it felt like my stomach was eating itself from the inside, but I wasn't sure if I was allowed to. Did we need to say grace first? Was he expecting me to thank Him for preparing the meal? I was so confused I ended up just sitting there staring at my plate anxiously.

" Are you going to eat? " Nathaniel asked and I mentally pounded my fists in the air at finally being given permission to eat.

" Of course, I was just waiting for you to start, " I responded trying to look nonchalant.

" I already ate, I am here simply to make conversation, " he said and with that I grabbed a heaping of mashed potatoes, some pasta and a small helping of salad. Feeling a lot cheerier than I had ten minutes ago I started to make conversation.

" Okay, " I said swallowing some potato, " I have an idea, I ask a question and then we both answer and then you ask a question and we both answer. That way we can get to know each other better. "

" Sounds like fun, " Nathaniel said and I couldn't tell if he was being sarcastic or not. I continued anyway, not discouraged.

" I'll start, what's your middle name? " I asked, proud of myself for thinking of such a good question.

" Harrison "

" Mine is Isabelle, after aunt Izzy, " I said testing out his name in my head Nathaniel Harrison Morgenstern... I like it.

" Your turn "

" Favourite movie, " he said playing with a piece of his hair.

" Definitely Titanic, " I said, " It was so sad! "

" Mine would have to be The Purge, " Nathaniel said and I laughed thinking about how different those movies were.

After a while of playing this game I finished dinner and we washed up the dishes and put away the leftovers. I sighed, sitting back down.

" Is there anything interesting to do here? " I asked, picking at the hem of my top.

" There is a piano in the drawing room, if you play, I don't, "

" Okay, that sounds fun, " I said getting out of my chair, " Where is that? "

Nathaniel walked into an adjoining room and motioned for me to follow him. It was a gigantic room complete with multiple lounges, a fireplace, a massive TV and a grand piano in the centre of the room. This house never ceased to amaze me. I sat down and was about to start playing when I noticed Nathaniel take out a sketchbook and an art pencil. I walked over to him and asked about it, but he refused to show me any drawings.

" You know mama was an artist, I could help you, I've seen her paint, " I said in an attempt to convince him, but it seemed to make him even more adamant not to show me. I huffed and sat back down at the piano, and before long a beautiful melody was created as I ran my fingers over the piano, feeling the shape of the song...
