Marie chuckled. "No its not poisoned. I'm just not hungry." Her stomach growled loudly and her face turned red.
Natheniel rolled his eyes. "How dare you lie to me, young lady." Then his expression was serious. "Eat. That's an order."
Natheniel looked her over, confused. "You're not anorexic or something, are you?"
Marie sighed and picked up the trray of food. "It's perfectly normal. Don't worry, please, Master Nathaniel." She started to leave the room.
Natheniel followed after her, not really having anything else to do anyway. "Not eating is not normal, Marie. I don't want a bunch of starving people in my house."
"For your information, you only have one!" Marie snapped. Then she paled. "sorry, sir."
"Why is everyone yelling at me today!" Natheniel snapped back, glaring at her. "Just tell me what's going on, and maybe I won't screw up so much."
"Why is everyone yelling at me today!" Natheniel snapped back, glaring at her. "Just tell me what's going on, and maybe I won't screw up so much."
Marie sighed and stopped, turning to facehim. "So, I'm anorexic. Everyone keeps on trying to get me to eat. I have my reasons for not. That''s all."
Natheniel crossed his arms. "I will not allow that here. You need to eat, Marie. You'll make yourself sick."
Marie shrugged. "I have my reasons." She practitcally ran away from him.
"But..." Natheniel sighed, just standing there and not bothering to chase her. "Girls," he muttered to himself, heading down to the kitchen.
Marie burst into the kitchen. "Yo Mill! The man iscomin down, so fix yo hair!" she shouted. Milly quickly ran her fingers through her hair and dumped the tray to the side. "I'll give ti to the chillun next door later," she lgiggled. "How be Whit?" Marie sighed. "In love. She's disappointed hedidn't actually try to do it with her." Milly scowled. "Shes lucky he even touvhed her!"
"What's all this yelling..?" Natheniel sighed as he entered the kitchen, looking around in some of the cabinets for a snack.
Milly blushed. "Oh, nothing sir. What would you like me to get you?" she said adoringly. Marie rolled her eyes and gave a fake cough that sounded like the word 'jealous sl*t'. Milly glared at Marie, who smiled innocently back.
Natheniel gave Marie a disaproving glance, and went back to rummaging. "Mills, where's the chocolate? I seriously need some chocolate for breakfast today..."
Before Milly could answer, Whitney bounced down the stairs. "Hey, Mair, where's the chocolate?" she asked, not looking at Milly-and consequently, not noticing that Nathaniel was there. Marie smiled and did the make the nickel appear magic trick, only with chocolate. Whitney grinned. "Merci, Madamemoiselle." Marie shrugged.
Natheniel sighed, giving up with the cabinets. "First yelling, now French..?" he muttered to himself. He turned to leave, but jumped a little when he saw Whitney. What was he supposed to say to her? Or was he supposed to say anything a all?
Whitney bit her lip and stepped back. Marie put a hand on her shoulder for support. "Milly go set the table." Milly began to protest, but Marie gave her a green-eyed stare so terrifying that Milly scampered off.
