WAR - THREE
"Grace?" Harry said as they all finished eating "yes?" "I'm tired" he said, rubbing his eyes. "We can show you to your rooms if you'd like?" Rose said "yes… please" Grace replied and stood up.

Once upstairs, she went in to the bigger bedroom first. It had a wardrobe, 2 sets of draws, a desk and 2 twin beds. "We got twin beds incase we got siblings" Rose smiled gently "right" Grace said, looking at Harry and Poppy as they walked in to the room. "Is this our bedroom?" Harry looked up at Rose, "yes sweetheart, yours and Poppy's" she nodded "can I have this bed please, Harry?" Poppy said as she sat on the bed closest to the window "OK" Harry replied. "Would you like to see your room, Grace?" Rose asked "whatever" Grace shrugged "it's just this way" Rose said, walking towards a slightly smaller room that had a double bed, wardrobe, drawers and a desk in "I hope this is OK?" Rose almost asked "it's fine" Grace said.
"I'm going to get the twins ready for bed" Grace said as she turned around "we don't mind doing that" she said as Jack walked up the stairs "no, I'll do it" Grace sighed, already sick of what she thought was Rose and Jack trying to take over. "OK" Rose nodded "we'll be in soon to say goodnight" "it's fine, don't worry" Grace replied coldly "No. We will be in to say goodnight" Jack said firmly. Grace just ignored him and went in to the twins room.

Around 20 minutes later, Jack and Rose knocked on the door of the twins room "can we come in?" Jack said through the door "yes!" Poppy said and they went in "we just wanted to say goodnight" "say night to Jack and Rose" Grace said to Poppy and Harry "night night" Poppy said "night darling" she went and tucked Poppy in "night Harry" Jack smiled and passed him his teddy bear that was at the end of the bed before tucking him in too "night Jack" Harry smiled and Jack turned off the main light. "They can't sleep in the dark!" Grace snapped, sat in between the 2 beds "oh, sorry, here" Jack put the oil lamp on "better?" to which Grace just rolled her eyes and stood up, kissing Harry and Poppy's heads "night night, I love you both" she said, re-tucking them in "love you" they replied and shut their eyes.
After leaving the room, Rose turned to Grace "would you like to come downstairs with us? We can get to know each other a little better" "No. I'm going to bed. Night" she said coldly. Rose didn't reply but Jack looked confused "it's not even 8pm?" "Yes, well I'm tired, it's been a long day" she sighed and walked off to her bedroom.
