ALAN


Alan returned to his room and causally chucked the rucksack on the couch. He enjoyed spending time with his friends at the pool, despite Jersey almost drowning. Should teach her how to swim. He thought to himself as he unzipped one of his suitcases and removed a blue tank top from it. He retrieved a pair of denim shorts from the same suitcase and got dressed. He got out a Game Of Thrones and proceeded to pass the time by reading the book.


A short while later, he stopped reading the book and started to make his way to the dining roo after locking his room. He spotted Kenzi as he approached the room and took note of what she was wearing. "Nice." He commented as he observed her whilst leaning against the wall. "Did you put this on just for me or just to continue looking hot?" He teased her whilst smiling. He caught a whiff of her prefume and recongised it. "I didn't know you were into Playboy's ranges of perfume or are you a big fan of it?" He said to her with a light hearted voice. He recongised that perfume anyway due to a few dates he had over the past few years.

YUNA


"It better not be yucky! I hate yucky food! It makes Yuna die inside and kills her passion for art." Yuna said to seemingly no-one as she rowed away from connor. She liked him for he was always happy to see her and was kind to her. She liked nice people unlike the meanies. She hated them for they make her cry and ruin her skin.


"Do we preform tonight?" She asked herself whilst rowing down the corridor untill she spotted a bit of dirt on the wall. She got off her bucket and licked it. "A few days old, comes from the garden, could be flowers, could be wiped on it but yuna loves her walls and they shall be as pretty as she is!" She proclaimed before removing the dirt. "Clean! So pretties! I love you, wall. Do you love me? YAY! You do!" She said to the wall and proceeded to hug it but it was a wall thus was impossible to hug. "Now, stay clean for mummy." She instructed the wall before rowing away.


She hadn't been told if she was preforming tonight or just cleaning today so she decided to pay the mastermistress a visit, provided she could remember where their room was. "Is Mistressmaster this way?" She asked herself a few minutes later whilst sitting in the bucket. "Oh how Yuna wishes she could remember where mistressmaster is! She would hate to disappoint them by not doing a show for the guests! oooo, i should do that blue trick or drink more paint! Or both! Or paint them! Oh, how Yuna wishes some wouldn't get mad for painting them." She said to herself as she racked her brains for the direction of the Westchester's private quarters. She had cleaned them on a regular basis but she always seemed to forget where it was on certain days whilst others, she knew where they were. Prehaps it was a result of her sanity disappearing, prehaps she always had a rubbish memory or prehaps she chose not to remember the location to make it fun for her to find on some days!

Victoria:


Victoria was happy that the current guests were pretty self sufficient. She was enjoying their alone time in the garden. It reminded of her of where they spent some of their first days together after they met. Sneaking around in the gardens to avoid her fiancé. She had a hard time believing that was so long ago, it still seemed so fresh. She felt his strong arms carefully wrap around. She had always been small and fragile, it was mainly because she spent 10 years feeding on the wrong stuff. She smiled when he agreed to take care of the woman, she would answer some questions. She just knew when Vlad told someone to stop asking questions they did, he had that kind of authority figure.


"Thank you my love, it is the summer festival. I would hate for a girl to spoil our fun."


She looked at the rose he had hidden, it was gorgeous. She took the rose and smelled it while he spoke to her. It truly was like when they first spent time with her. Sending her flowers and poems.


"I promise to be with you till the end of time my love."


She leaned down and kissed him, she wanted to stay with him like this for the rest of the night.


"If I had never gone to the ball that night I know I would never have survived. You saved me from a cruel fate my knight. And for that I will alwas be with you, where I know I am safe."


She wrapped her arms around him, she felt so safe. She looked towards the manor when she heard the dinner bell ring. She looked back at Vlad.


"Shall we go to dinner love?"


She was excited for the nights meal. It was her favorite one, and best of all she would be enjoying it with her love. She kissed him again, the dinner bell signified 5 minutes before dinner start. She knew it would be rude for the Master and Lady of the house to be tardy. In her own ways she was still very old fashioned.


@Gilmoregirl12


Brandon:


Brandon scrambled between the kitchen and dinning room to get everything ready for dinner. He had set out napkins, silverware, glasses, and pitchers of water on the table. He had picked out two wines to go with the dinner as well as non-alcoholic juice options. he knew that sometimes people were either not of drinking age or, didn't like wine. He made sure the white wine was on ice so it was chilled, as well as the juice options. He went back into the kitchen and rang the dinner bell, signifying 5 minutes to dinner. He rushed back into the kitchen and made sure the soup was warm and delicious. He grabbed a stack of bowls and laid them out on the prep table. He started filling them up , they were not big bowls more like cups. He finished filling up the bowls and grabbed the garnish, parsley and small diced tomatoes. He carefully adorned each of the cups of soup. He made sure each one was perfect, they had to be, they always had to be perfect. He smiled as he examined the cups of soup, he was happy with them.


After doing the soup he checked on the lamb, once he served the soup he would cook the lamb. That way the lamb was very flavorful. he pushed the serving cart into the kitchen area. He would use to transport the trays to and from the dinning room, which contained either dirty plates or the next course. He was very attentive and was good at what he did. He looked down and realized he was wearing his cooking apron, which had stains. He quickly grabbed his clean waist apron and tied it on as he walked over and doubled checked the soup, it was cooling down just right and, by the time he served it would be just right to eat. Not to hot not too cool. it was a trick he learned in school. e stood waiting to hear the guests enter the dinning room. As he did he started to set the coups of soup on the serving tray. He was ready to serve and as always, ready to serve those that fed him.

Jersey was walking down the hall with her cardigan on making it to the dining hall. She looked around before seeing Kenzie and Alan and smiled walking over to them. "Wow Alan...you reading a book I'm flabbergasted..."She said looked at Kenzie "And you look gorgeous as always Kenz..." She told her her smile faltering a little bit. Yup Kenzie was a very popular girl like...almost every guy wanted to be with her. Jersey wasn't so lucky but she didn't really care. She mainly focused on her major wanting to become a forensic investigator or a Chemical Engineer she didn't have time for boys. Also they asked too much from her, 'buy this wear that, do this why cant you be like blah blah blah...ugh it was too much for her...she just wanted someone to like her for who she is not who they want her to be. 'Anyway hope dinner is ready I'm hungry...'


She looked at Kenzie and Alan "So...you guys ready for dinner?" She asked them shoving her hands in her over-sized cardigan that she got from one of her brothers for christmas. This was her special cardigan and she made sure to never let anything bad mess it up. "and before you say anything...yes I am wearing a dress that you guys forced me to wear..."She said "But...I wont take off this cardigan until everyone arrives and see the girly monster you have created..."

~Vladimir Westchester~


Vlads smile warmed at her. She was his love. He remembered time the times they would spend hiding from her fiancee in the gardens. They would read stories and he would read his poetry to her as he snuck kisses on her head. She hadn't allowed him to kiss her on the lips. He watched her and smiles, he had fallen for her hard it was like Alice falling down a never ending rabbit hole.


"No human will ruin a thing, especially one that means nothing. This is our time of the year and I will not have my beautiful Queen unhappy." He said kissing her hand.


"I like that promise my sweet." He said. As she leaned down to kiss him he met her Half way and enveloped her in a warm embrace his lips fully on hers. He listened to her and smiles gently.


"I did nothing but keep the prettiest woman to ever love alive. Yes my darling your safe with me. I shall never let you fall or be hurt again. I am very sorry I couldn't protect you both times. I am however here now and can let you go. I hold you a pedestal like you are as radiant as the Gods and Goddesses." He said. He just nuzzled into her neck and sighed as he breathed in her scent. When the Dinner Bell rang he sighed and pulled back. His hand in hers."yes let's eat shall we." He said and kissed her again.


"Let's not have the Lord and Lady of the manor Late for dinner it tis rude. Is it not my darling."He asked her gently. He held her hand his other hand on the small of her back as he escorted her to the dinning room. He pulled the chair out for her gently and snapped his fingers for his servants to move the chairs back so they could sit.


"Please sit." He said to his guests. He took his seat next to his wife at the head if the table. He had made aure Brandon brought his wifes favorite wine out it was from the 1700's so the bottle was for only him and her. They had bought different wine for there guests. He Looked at Brandon and nods his thanks to him. His staff would eat after his guests had,but Brandon was in his good graces at the moment so he didn't mind him being about. He held his wife's hand and nods."Please enjoy our dinner by our magnificent chef Brandon. Always wonderful." Vlad said. He pulled out a pen and wrote a note and sent a servant to fin Yuna. Note said no performance tonight and he see her and Connor for dinner after the guests ate.

Josie laid mortified on her bed. All she knew was it had been more than 10 minutes since she had thrown her phone into the trash. Josie was unplugged, which was a feeling she hadn't felt since she was eight and her mother refused to let her play an app. Back then Josie only had to wait a few minutes, but now there was slight chance she would have any connection for the rest of the vacation. Plus Josie could not put it to herself to ask her friends for one of their phones. If they were at school Josie would just sigh and any random boy would have a phone at the ready. Yet when it came to her friends, Josie never asked for she thought it was to personal.


Josie knew she could not lie on her bed forever. Eventually she would have to meet the others and go to dinner. Josie was extremely reluctant, but she managed to get herself to put on her black wedged pumps and reach for the door handle. Then with a blank face, Josie fully "shut down" and left her room. As she made it to the dinning area, Josie saw her friends and went to them in complete silence. Josie didn't even greet them when she sat. She just stared off into space.


@Gilmoregirl12 @Stoked911 and whoever else is at dining room.

Zach smiled as Holly asked him about a drink at the bar. "I'm down with that." He watched her climb out of the pool and walk away. Why had he never noticed how gorgeous she was until now?


The answer to that question eluded him.


He watched as his friends climbed out of the pool and dried themselves off. He climbed out and headed towards his room. Once he was there he pulled out the contents of his bag: a few shirts, some smart shirts, jeans and nice shoes. He headed straight to the bathroom, jumping in the shower and washing himself thoroughly. Then he dried and got dressed, wearing dark jeans, a white t-shirt with a red and white checkered shirt over the top. Zach put his shoes on and spent the remainder of his time perfecting his hair in the mirror.


The girls are going to melt when they see me. Big Z, You are gorgeous!


He winked at himself in the mirror and headed on out. He would head straight to Alan's room, taking with him a few bottles of budwieser from his case for them to drink before dinner.


They're probably warm... Zach thought with an indifferent shrug of his shoulders. He doubted Alan would mind drinking warm beer.


Zach made his way to Alan's room, hesitating slightly outside Holly's room. Why don't you two just screw already he remembered Kenzi saying. His hand hovered over the door. No! Play it cool Zach! He carried on to Alan's room and tapped on the door.

"Alan! I got beers!" he declared jovially. He smiled at the rest of his friends and took a seat.

It was a few mi utes until Holly realized everyone was going to the dining room, so she stood and made her way there, her bag on her shoulder and book in her hand. She was nervous at how everyone would see her, she liked warm leggings and oversized teeshirts, she'd wear shorts sometimes, but never dresses or skirts. So this dress was a newer. But it was also just a step taking to getting out of her bubble.


When she got to the dining room she laughed a bit when Zach announced he had beers, "they're probably surving wine" she noted and patted his back, then taking her seat. She made sure she scooted her seat away from Zach a bit before opening her book and reading under the table. She was really into the book.

YUNA


After spending a few minutes of doing nothing apart from rambling to herself about the location of the mistressmaster's quarters, she came to the conclusion that rubber foods were tasty and that the sun should be green with a pair of nylon leggins sticking out of the top of it. Cows should go quack and dogs should play a game called poker.


She believed she had nothing to do this evening and made her way back to the staff wing to return her equipment to her cupboard. After putting them back and storing them in odd poses, she removed the cracked mirror from the waist line of her skirt. "I'm pretty! Yuna is pretty! I wuv being pretty! Pretty, pretty, wait, purple's boring now. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORING!" She told herself whilst looking at her reflection. "But the pooly calls her name with picky! We can go swimming like a quacking ribbet!" She exclaimed as she put the mirror back into her skirt. "But Yuna should say hello to the new geese! Oh, she hopes they will treat her rooms nice or she will serve them the wrong drinks!" She said as skipped to the pool.


"The guests! Oh, we should say hello!" She said before the servant found her and handed her the note. "Oh, Yuna can't swim now." She said with disappointment in her tone. "But we gets to meet the new guests! Yippee!" She exclaimed with a big smile on her face then proceeded to eat the note. "Needs more red, wait, i had red yesterday, ooo, pink would do, yes, wait, i was pink yesterday. Teal? or tea! Or orange but white is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..." She told herself as she skipped away from the servant and "last books, but will mistressmaster like our colour?" She asked herself whilst making her way to the dinning hall. She had forgotten that Connor was waiting at the pool and felt excitment rise within her. She adored meeting new guests or geese as she sometimes called them and sometimes, to their very faces! She wanted to say hello to them, lick them, smell them and look after them but mistressmaster wanted her for dinner.

Zach smiled as Holly patted him on the back and took her seat. Alan had said he was cutting down on his drinking. "What the hell man?" Zach replied slumping into his seat. "Are you turning gay or something?" He jibed with a sneer.


"I'm only joking mate." He said with a chuckle, giving Alan a reassuring tap on the shoulder across the table. As he leant over he noticed Holly was reading a book under the table. "What the heck are you doing?" He asked her. "We're supposed to be having a dinner and then party!" He turned his head, his smile disappearing once he noticed Alan also had a book with him. "I knew it..." Zach said shaking his head. "You really are turning gay!"


Zach got his lighter out of his pocket and wedged the bottom under the bottle lid. He cupped his hand around the lid and pulled the lighter down. The cap came off with an audible pop and Zach quickly put the cap in his pocket, looking around with a smug smile on his face, trying to see whether anyone was impressed by his ingenuity. He cleared his throat and looked down at his cutlery when nobody looked impressed.

 

[logastellus]

Jersey laughed at what Alan told her since she was wearing a dress. She turned and walked to one of the far end seats and sits down taking out her journal and starts writing in it. She fixed her glasses until she looked up hearing Alan say he brought drinks. Now if it was one thing she can do she can hold her liquor. Her dad taught her everything to know about drinking once he found out she had some of his beer without him knowing. 'If you're going to drink make sure you do it in moderation' He would tell her and she always did drink in moderation. She never drank too much to the point she was intoxicated and made sure to wait a few hours before leaving a party.


She stopped looking at Alan and looked at Josie seeing her dead expression. "From the looks of her facial expression being nonchalant...something happened to her phone..." She said taking off her glasses which was a shocker since she rarely did. She continued to look at Josie "Josie...what happened to your phone?" She asked her.

 

[Lady Luna Ravenswood]

Victoria loved this tie with Vlad, she was just happy to be with him. It didn't matter if they were in a shack in the forest or in a lavish manor. She let her self be lead to the dinning room by him, they truly looked like a lord and lady. Even though it was America and lords and lady did not exist here. She looked at the guests as she took her seat at the head of the table, next to her husband. She looked and saw the girl had sat at the seat by Vlad, she was happy about that. She looked at Brandon who had set a bottle of wine that she loved between her and Vlad. She knew Vlad had requested it, she was happy about it. The wine was old, really old. It was made by a famous winery from the 1700's. She was about to say something to Vlad when the girl asked how long they had owned the manor. She spoke this time it was a question she could answer.


"The manor as been in the Westchester family for many generations."


She looked at Vlad hoping she answered correctly. She grabbed a glass and poured her self some wine, as well as pouring him some. She was excited for the final guests to arrive.


Her attention however was caught by one of the college students bursting in declaring he had beer. She gave him an annoyed look.


Does he even have manners? Such a rude boy......


"Good evening sir, please take a seat."


She wanted to lecture him on how it was rude and inappropriate to come in, in such a manner.


"And we have drinks as well, you do not need to bring your own."


She glanced at Vlad before her attention, yet again, was grabbed by the boy. She shot him a fiery glare, like she was trying to steal his soul.


"Do you mind?"


This was going to be a long dinner if the boy kept acting like that.


@Gilmoregirl12 @TheRevenant


Brandon:


Brandon walked out of the kitchen when the lord and lady had entered. He bowed slightly to them, he had not forgotten about the wine. he quickly removed the cork and set the bottle between Vlad and Victoria. He looked at the guests.


"Yes, I have prepared an excellent meal in celebration of summer. It consists of three courses, a delicious summer squash soup, grilled lamb chops with rosemary potato mash and steamed vegetables, and lemon or plan cheesecake for dessert."


He liked saying the meal for the night before serving it. He stepped into the kitchen and heard one of the guests outbursts. he sighed, he knew Victoria would not be pleased with that. Luckily it was her one of her favorite meals so she would be distracted. He knew that Vlad would not be happy with the boy either. Simply because, any one that annoyed Victoria felt the wrath of Vlad. He grabbed the cart of soup and wheeled it out. Between him and the other servants he was able to the soup distributed among the guests.


"I hope you enjoy,"


He bowed to the group before going back into the kitchen.


He switched aprons and grabbed the lamb, the grill was the perfect temp and he started grilling them while preparing the plates with the rosemary potatoes and steamed veggies. Yet again he looked like a trapped animal trying to escape. the smell of the food was filling the air, all the herbs he used to cook were making the kitchen smell wonderful. He rushed between prepping the plates and cooking the lamb. It was amazing how he was multi tasking yet, nothing was burnt. He had spent a long time cooking, he had plenty of years to master multitasking cooking. He stopped for a brief second to sip on a glass of water before returning to the mad rush.


(all the dinner guests.)

 

[Dark_Psycho]

~Vladimir Westchester and Kenzi Dimitru~


Vlad sat at the head of the table. He put his hand in hers, he let his wife pore the wine. Even though he normally did it. He thanked Brandon. He let his wife answer the girl's question. He gave her a small smile to say fine. He kept quite as his eye's landed on the girl. He was normally quite and brooding unless he was alone with her. When one of the college students rudely entered. He balled the hand not holding his wife's into a fist. He wish to impale the idiot on a pike. This how ever was not the 1700's. He wanted to growl and bare his fangs, he just kept silent as he waited for Brandon to serve the soup. He patted his wife's hand gently and kissed her hand. He watched the college students with a dark look. He was not in a good mood. He looked over when the girl spoke up again.


"Guy's seriously phones, books, and obnoxious attitudes away your being rude to our hosts."Kenzi said and nodded to Vlad and Victoria to say chill the fuck out before they kill us. She saw that dark look and made the Master if the house look dark and almost serial killer like.


"Ahhh a woman who still has manors. Your parents raised you right then?" Vlad said. The room went silent,not just because his voice was deep and enticing,but because Vlad never spoke at meals. He always let his wife have the honors of talking. He didn't wish to talk to any one else but her. He how ever knew she was more out going then he was it is why he spends his days in the study when he isn't with his wife doing something with her.


Kenzi watched them and ate the soup that the chef had brought. "Very good, soup, you know Victoria and Vlad seem to be common names for the Westchester family even in the Manor in the 17th century." She said. Vlad turned to her."Oh and your computer told you all this?" He asked. His grip on his chair tightened. He was growing rather annoyed with this girl.


"yes, also that a Vladimir Dracul owned this place in the 14th century, then the Dragos family took over. The man seemed perfectly okay from what they wrote he just wanted the best for his people. He was to Marry I am guessing my long distance Relative Victoria Dimitru. Then a dark man named Vlad the Impaler. Impaled him and took the land for his own. Peculiar he had a similar last name as the Vlad in the 14th century. Any way he married the woman Victoria painted her picture. Looks much like your wife here. Then a weird family your's takes over in the 1700's and they last till about the 1900's. That's when the Manor falls silent yet still seems to stay in your possession and you open a hotel many years later." Kenzi said I mean how did you keep it in the family if the bloodlines had all died well except for the two of you." She said. Before she could start again Vlad slammed his hand on the table sending a tremor along the whole table the soup bowls shook and the soup trembled."That is not suitable conversation at this dinner table, I do not like to bore my other guests we can talk outside later." He said "now all of you please eat."he said. Kenzi fell silent and ate her soup. She was still burning with questions, her hand still in Alan's lap. Kenzi sighed and tried again.


"So these summer festivals are they fun?" She asked. Vlad had been enjoying his soup before the girl started up again."Yes quite fun." He said. He had gone back to his brooding state he let his wife answer it. Kenzi huffed at his answer."okay well can you tell us about them?" She asked. Vlad stayed silent and looked at his wife gently. He would of lost it if she were not here. Sadly he already might have blown there cover by shaking a solid oak table with slamming his hands on it.

ALAN


"Cut the crap, Zach." Alan told him as he finished filling up Kenzi's glass with wine and poured himself a glass. "And stop being an ass, now behave before i physically chuck you out for insulting our hosts with your antics." He warned him after Zach made a gay joke. "Sorry about him, he's a bit of an ass sometimes and doesn't understand when to keep his **** to himself." He said to Victoria and Vlad just as the soups were being served.


Whilst it may have came to a surprise for some, Alan was actually capable of being civilised and give a damn. Usually, he chose not to but out of gratitude for Kenzi for inviting him. He liked her the most and viewed her as his best friend although it had been a year since he talked to her due to...... reasons.


"Smells nice." He commented as the soup was placed in front of him. Normally, he wouldn't have bothered with spoons and would have chugged it down but he decided against it. He ate a spoonful and said "mmm, this is the best thing i've eaten all year." He almost stood up when Vlad smashed his hand into the table and believed a fight was about to happen before realising that Vlad was just getting annoyed by Kenzi's questions. "Kenzi, give the man a rest. We have all summer to learn about the history of this place." He told her before helping himself to the contents of his bowl. His arm was still around her shoulders and he noticed how beautiful she was.


Either she wants me and who could blame her? or she is messing with me. Damn, she's beautiful. Don't fucking tell her that but she is hot, tell her that. Zach better keep his mouth shut and stop being a prat before I chuck him out. Don't want a repeat of last year and not get arrested again. **** cops. Avoid getting drunk, don't want to end up sleeping with Kenzi if she is drunk. He thought to himself as he ate his soup. "You'll be needing me to carry you around town tomorrow then?" He joked to Kenzi.


@Gilmoregirl12 @Lady Luna Ravenswood and other guests at the table if applicable..

 

[travelbypages]

Holly smiled a little, "I left my copy at home! Sorry if I want to use up some time." she stuck her tongue out. When the soup came she placed her seat in the original spot which was now back beside Zach. She ate some of the soup, "mmm" she giggled a little, "man, this is better than gramas cooking." She half joked.


Glancing at Zach, Holly shyly set her hand on his arm under the table, as she casually kept sipping the soup. But stopped and looked when Vlad made the table shake "uhm..." Holly said quietly, "I think we should calm down guys..." she looked at her soup all of the sudden staying quiet. She set her spoon down, poured herself some wine before taking a sip and sending a glance to Zach. Peoples anger made her nervous.


Holly just couldn't wait until the supper was done. She wanted a better drink.


@Gilmoregirl12 @Stoked911 ((I think thats it right?))

 

[logastellus]

Jersey jumped a little in her seat when Vlad slammed his hand on the table. The tremor sent shakes around the table. She just kept her head down and continued to eat her soup. 'Cmon just think of something to get your mind off of what just happened. What to do A-ha! I'll just go back to writing in my journal...but then that would be churlish. Maybe I should just ignore what the others are doing and just zone out...yeah I'll do that...' She continued looking down at her and eating it. 'Wow this was really good...I need to find the chef and kudos him for the meal...'


Jersey just inwardly sighed and continued eating hoping the next course of the meal would come soon.

 

[Taelonthesands]

Josie looked at the food with the same blank expression. However underneath the table, Josie was taping away on her knees as if they were the key board of her phone. Before she began eating, Jersey posed the question about her phone. "M-my phone you ask? Oh everything is fine with my phone. Absolutely one hundred percent fine Jersey. I just left it back at my room, so I wouldn't be seen as rude like some people we know." Josie coughed and said zach's name midway before she looked back at her food. Josie always hated when she lied about things to her friends. They were the only ones she could never slip a lie past and it always made her feel even more guilty.


When Vlad had slammed his hand against the table, Josie was still too fazed out to notice. She simply took a sip of her trembling soup and ate a couple more bites after the trembling table calmed down. She then ate one of her lamb chops and smiled mentally. It tasted like the food that her mother used to make on family dinner nights. Josie finished off her main meal and wiped her mouth before placing her hands in her lap again. Looking over at the master of the hotel Josie said in a pretty monotone voice. "The chef you have here is excellent you know. I have never tasted better food in my life." Josie listened in when Kenzi ask about the festival. Then then added in, "Yes could you tell us about it? I am quite intrigued by the festivities you hold here. It seems like a wondrous tech free activity." If Josie's expressions hadn't given away enough, mentioning getting away from technology was a huge clue about Josie's broken phone and Josie herself being in a state of shut down.

Zach felt like a fish out of water at the meal. He turned his head and noticed the lady of the manor was glaring at him like she wanted to murder him. Zach had always rebelled against authority, it was in his nature and ordinarily he would have had to say something to the woman whose eyes stared right into him. But this woman...


Zach felt like a deer in headlights. He gulped nervously and jerked his head up sharply when Alan reprimanded him. What the heck is wrong with everyone?


He gave Holly's hand a squeeze and cast her a glance, his eyes filled with appreciation. Keep calm Zach! Don't flip out in front of Holly. He could sense the tension in the room, it was reaching the point where it was becoming palpable.


Zach cleared his throat and swallowed his pride "I'm sorry if I've upset you..." He said to the lady of the manor. He avoided making eye contact. With Alan he looked at him and clicked his tongue, but he didn't say anything.


Zach phased out during the next few moments, in the background he could hear Kenzi speaking with the Lord of the manor until there was a bang that shook the whole table. Zach snapped back into awareness and turned to face Vlad with a sour look on his face.


What the hell is with this couple? I've never felt like this before...


Zach took a drink of his beer, breaking eye contact with Vlad almost immediately. He gripped Holly's hand, his palm slick with perspiration. He took a sip of his soup, his eyes darting from right to left. He tightened his grip on Holly's hand and felt his cheeks burning.


Next person to say anything to me gets this spoon up there nose!

Victoria cut her gaze from the boy.


"Thank you."


She looked back at her husband who was listening to the girl. She slightly squeezed his hand when the girl mentioned Dragos, who according to her was not that bad of a man. She hid the disgust she felt with those words.


That girl is foolish, Dragos was horrible man...


She could tell Vlad was getting annoyed with the girl. Victoria relaxed her grip as placed her hand on his leg in an attempt to calm him. She took a spoonful of the soup which was absolutely delicious. She continued eating it when Vlad slammed his hand against the table. She put her spoon down and placed her hand on his shoulder, leaning in and whispering in his ear.


"Love calm down. you just made a solid oak table move'


She kissed his cheek then returned to her soup. She looked at the two girls who had asked about the summer festival.


"it is a celebration of the death of the cruel man that once ruled these lands see, he was dictator of sorts. unfair in his ruling yet very powerful. that was until Vlad and Victoria Westchester, the original ones, built this manor. The dictator died of an accidental mercury overdose. It was used I curing many ailments at the time. Being the next most powerful Family in the land Vlad took over. The summer celebration is just that, a big party about being freed from a dictator."


She smiled at the two girls.


"There are many activites at the festival but, it is better to explore it then for me to explain it."


She looked at Vlad to see if he had calmed down.

~Vladimir Westchester~


Vlad was a had the temper of a boar when it came down to it. He felt her kiss on his cheek. He sighed he knew he had over reacted but the girl really did piss him off. He looked down as he ate, he sighed and kissed her hand he patted it to let her know he was okay and it wouldn't happen again. How ever this girl would need to be educated in there history if she was going to open her mouth about any of it again. He was glad to see the girl actually fall silent and seemed stunned the young man next to her was a help he seemed to have a very nice attitude.


Vlad cleared his throat.


"I am sorry, about that out burst very boarish of me. Forgive me." He said apologizing.


"yes the festival is very lovely. It is where my Beautiful Night Flower and I always renew our vows together." He saw the girls starring at him and the guys looking at him as well. He chuckled slightly at there looks. He wanted to explain the looks he had been giving Victoria and the ones they would share. He wanted the guests that did leave here to leave with a new sense of life and to return the next summer.


"You men have to understand I love my wife and I always have. We may disagree, but our relationship is the envy of the town and all our guests. The way to keep it so. Is to treat her like a Queen. It doesn't matter that this is not of the decade,but I have never treated her with nothing but love and admiration. You don't have to be rich to shower her with riches. A simple kiss to the hand like so." He said and pulled his wife's hand up and kisses it.


"Or a poem or even a compliment, it doesn't have to be a grand gesture." He says. He smiled and looked at his wife.


"My Queen, you are radiant every day like when the brightest moon is in the sky." he said before he started his poem.


" When first we touched,


My heart flew high,


On gossamer wings through a cloudless sky.


They said it was built upon a lie.


They told me my feelings would surely fade.


Passion would flare and foes would be made.


Can you not put the pass behind?


True love can change a rivers course,


Or pierce the strongest vault with ease.


True love can turn coal into gold,


Or tame the tempest to a balmy breeze.


Quite some time has passed since then:


People no longer criticize,


For now they see that truth exists,


Where once there might have been only lies.


Still my feelings are the same today,


As they were on that very first,


For when we touch, my heart still flies, on gossamer wings through cloudless skies." He recited. It was a new poem he had written for her. He normally told her in bed, but he needed to show them how men should treat woman.


He heard Kenzi say it was so romantic and beautiful. She had that Swoonie gaze which she had turned on the man next to her. Vlad smiled and kissed his wife's hand as Brandon served them. He once again thanked Brandon. Vlad sent a servant to, look for Connor when the girl apologized for intruding he shrugged it off. It was nothing they were at dinner.


~Kenzi Dimitru~


Kenzi nodded in agreement with Alan as he scolded the others. She was surprised at him being so mature. She thanked him for filling her glass. She had annoyed Vlad with her questions. She wanted to know more and why the hell was he so pissed. It had been years since she had spent time with, Alan. He seemed to really have grown up. She liked the new Alan. She watched him compliment Vlad and Victoria on there choice of food and had to agree they had the best food.


Alan scolded her to leave Vlad be with the questions. She smiled and fell silent as she listened to Victoria talk about the festival. Her hand still in Alan's lap, she had decided to not tease him. It be childish and she was trying to behave at the dinner table. She ate with her other hand the soup was amazing. She listened to Vlad speak to Victoria. She sighed and watched them.


She turned to Alan and smiled gently as Vlad called for the rest of the meal to be brought out. She watched the two again,"God no one speaks like that any more, that is so romantic and beautiful." She said. She looked down and shook her head. No one did talk like that anymore. They acted like they grew up in the Medieval era. He treated Victoria like a Queen. He put her very high up and she seemed to calm him.


" I am sorry didn't mean to intrude." She said when she got a small look from Vlad. It was more a look of amusement then anger. Kenzi looked down as she kept her hand in Alan's lap gently.

ALAN


Alan ignored Zach's clicking as he ate his own soup and listened to Victoria's explaination of the festivial. He listened to Vlad's speech about love whilst he finished off the soup. He didn't have anything to say about it and deep down, he wished he would find someone that he would want to treat like a queen. So far, he hadn't met any woman that he fell in love with. His love life consisted of one night stands and picking up chicks at bars. It was easy for him to get a date due to his looks and most of the time, he just wanted them for their looks.


It had been a year since he had spent time with Kenzi or was it years? He couldn't remembered and didn't give a damn how long had passed. He enjoyed spending time with her and checking her out. He considered her to be his best friend but he would never reveal his past to her. He couldn't remeber if she had taken offense at him checking her out the last time they met but she didn't mind now.


He returned Kenzi's smile after she looked at him. She is even hotter up close. Was she always this hot? Wonder if we will end up in bed? Nah, she is just messing with me and i'm being me. He thought to himself as he finished off his glass of wine. "We should check you out, tomorrow." He suggested to Kenzi before realising he accidentally said you instead of it. "I mean, it. Although i will still be checking you and that wonderful ass of yours out." He said as the rest of the meal was being brought out. "Compliments to the chef, for this is the best thing i've eaten in my life." He informed Vlad and Victoria after tucking into the lamb. He wasn't joking, it was the best thing he had tasted in his life.

Holly felt her hand being squeezed and looked at Zach, she smiled reassuringly. She understood what was wrong, he was used to being upbeat and cocky, funny and loud. "Calm down, we'll go for cold, drinks afterward." She whispered in his ear. She felt uncomfortable around Vlad and Victoria too.


Holly pushed her bowl away and waited quietly for the main meal. She went from looking at the bowl, to studying Vlad. He seemed young, well, adult young. Her eyes narrowed a bit, listening to Kenzies questions. They seemed odd, but they seemed like they would answer questions, "its odd how Kenzies questions make sense to them. Why would Vlad get angry over small history questions..." she whispered to Zach . She just sighed and went back to sipping her wine and glancing at Zach. Poor guy.

Jersey saw the main course be placed in front of everyone and saw that it was lamb. This was interesting because lamb has a rough texture and it can take a while until a person finishes chewing a piece then swallowing. Let's see how this goes. Jersey cut a piece of the lamd and put it in her mouth and it was like woah! It was delicious! She had never tasted lamb so good that it would melt it her mouth! She really needed to thank the chef later. Maybe ask him how he makes it taste sooo good. But for now she'll just continue eating.


The lamb basically took Jerseys mind off of what just happened between Kenzie and Vladimir and the futile argument Zach and Alan had. But being of the male species and having so much testosterone to the point it's crazy...it was inevitable to avoid. She never looked up from her plate and just continued to eat the lamb but not too fast to where she won't have anymore and she will have to strike up a conversation. Hell what would she talk about? She could probably bore them with all her research...that would be fun. She just dismissed the thought and continued to eat.

 

[TheRevenant]

Zach felt the rage inside of him beginning to subside. Holly gave him a reassuring smile and whispered something in his ear about having a drink later. He nodded in affirmation.


"That would be great." He said.


The main course was served: lamb. The aroma tantalised his taste buds, making him salvate. He quickly gripped hus knife and fork and brutishly hacked away at the lump of meat, sawing it and pulling the smaller off cut away with his fork. He put the fork into his mouth and chewed, profusely enjoying the succulent texture of the lamb and the magnificent taste. Everyone else gave their thanks and encouraged the Lord and Lady of the manor to give their compliment to the chef.


"Thiff...." Zach said with a mouth full of lamb. He pointed at it with his fork. Then swallowed what was in his mouth and continued to speak. "This is the best lamb I've ever tasted." He gave Lady Victoria a look of appreciation. The key to a man's heart is through his stomach he thought to himself jovially, as he continued to wolf down his portion as if he'd not eaten in months.

 

[Lady Luna Ravenswood]

Victoria was happy to see that Vlad had calmed down a bit. She knew they would have much to discuss after dinner in his study. She was just glad the girl had decided to be quiet. She looked at Vlad with a loving expression as he told everyone their little tradition they had at the summer festival. She kept her eyes on him as explained that he treated his wife like a queen. She lowered her head slightly when her kissed her hand, her cheeks warmed slightly when he recited his newest poem for her. Usually he only told her the poems in private so she was quite surprised by it. Once he finished she kissed him.


"You always know how to swoon me my knight."


She looked as Brandon set out the next course. He was a good cook and the mummers of having to thank the chef were spoken around the table.


"I will make sure to tell Brandon how much you enjoyed his cooking."


She looked at the Zach who was almost in hailing his meal.


"I am glad you enjoy it."


She looked at the other guests,


"Brandon is very picky about the ingredients he uses. If he doesn't think it is good or its subpar he will not use it. In fact he grows almost all of the herbs and vegetables here."


She returned to her meal.


@Gilmoregirl12 @TheRevenant and the other guests.


Brandon.


Brandon put his ear to the door and heard the many complaints he got.


"Yes, I was successful yet again."


He looked at the slices of cheesecake he had started to prepare while waiting to the serve the next course. When he served it he could tell the tension was tight. So tight that he could cut with a knife. He was curious as to what had happened but, knew it was rude of him to ask. He continued on prepping the desert. He whipped up a nice lemon glaze for the lemon cheesecake and prepped some fresh blueberries and raspberries for the plain cheesecake. He carefully adorned each slice with the appropriate topping. It still bothered him that the tension was so high in there. He knew it was most likely because a guest or guests were bothering the master and mistress of the house. He didn't like that, they had taken him in when he was still new to everything. He shook the thoughts away and went back to working on the dessert. He wasn't going to let himself mess up because he was distracted. That would inappropriate of him, and might get him fired. He finished adorning the slices and inspected all of them to make sure they were perfect.

Time skip


~Vladimir Westchester~


The dinner went on and Vlad just held his beloveds hand. He finished the meal. He said that a compliment to his chef is a compliment to him. He always thought a compliment to his staff was a reflection on how he trained them. When dinner ended after an amazing desert. He didn't eat it. He didn't like sweets well except for Victoria. She was his sweet, and he loved her so much. He excused himself and asked Victoria to Join him. He nods to his guests and had Brandon give them all a bottle of wine to leave and go spend sometime around the fire pit they had in the back.( will add picture when can )


Vlad called his staff to meet him in the west wing conference room. There real dinner began. He kept blood for his staff and as they talked about things he would allow them to drink there fill. He sat at the head of the table. He tapped his hands on the table. He stood once all his employees were in.


"Alright were going to have a long summer if any of the kids ask about us and the history. Send them to us, we do not want anything getting out. The Dimitru girl isn't going to give up and she is fishing about our family history and I will not tolerate slip ups or I will make you fire wood understood. Now I must give my compliments to Brandon for his wonderful meal tonight. I am very satisfied he is the newest member to the Westchester family. So he is our best latest addition." He said. A male staff spoke up."So does this include your wife and her big mouth?" He asked. Vlad got up with a dark look at him. He kissed his wife's hand and patted her gently to stay put. He walked over and pulled out the employees chair. He leaned it back and snarled.


"You never talk about my wife like that ever again. She is always exempt from these talks. She is older then all of you." He plunged his hand in the creatures chest cavity. He pulled his heart out and crushed it to dust. The man turned to dust.


"Let that be a warning to all, any who talks badly about my wife or interrupt us will end up like him. Now get out of my sight your all dismissed." He said. Vlad sighed and pulled Victoria to him.


"How about we go for a night ride." He asked her. His lips on hers.
