Jocelyn Cotovartre: Jocelyn was moving about the Lily, tending to her business as she put away several things for the night and began to prepare the beds for several of the girls as they were getting ready to retire for the evening. She had heard the talk between her employer and the man. No words were understood clearly, only hearing the shouting, and it was muffled through the walls at that. Long brown hair swayed as she walked towards the last room to pull down the covers of the last bed for tonight. Then she'd be off to see to her own nightly routine and retire for the night along with the others. <d
Shaden Aramoire: Shaden left her room, pulling the robe of mint green wool, corded with silver about her body.. tighlty... urgeouning belly that was ample evidence of her progeressing pregnancy peeking out between the sides of the robe.. as she padded down the stairs .. yes she was craving something, sweet and salty more than likely.. the augment Jocelyn had overheard was settled and one side of it slept soundly... now in her bed... it was quiet it seemed in the house... almost everyone turned in for the night... but the jingle of keys on the ring let her know that either Gerda or Jocelyn was near.. as they were the only ones besides herself to hold... the keys to the Kingdom of the Lily (d)
Jocelyn Cotovartre: The padding of foot-steps had Jocelyn pausing in the room she was in, taking a few steps back and leaning her head backwards to peek out the door. She'd spot the Lady Shaden leaving her room and turned to quickly pull down the sheets to the nearby bed before quickly leaving it ready for its occupant. The small woman moved quickly but quietly until she came upon her Lady. "MiLady... iffn ye be need'n something, Ay dun mind go'n and fetchn it fer ye. Ye should be restn ye feet and ankles." She stated as she began to now walk along beside her. <d
Shaden Aramoire: "I'm trying to keep from waking my guest " she would not say that it was the guard Nicholas.. no need to start more rumors.. now was there "a soft laugh bubbled from her lips... I need to check on something in my office anyway.. but Gerda or someone made a carrot cake earlier today and I'm craving it and some tea.. would you join me ?" down the flight of steps she went into the great room, candle perched in hand before turning toward the kitchen..hopefully with the company of Jocelyn... she so hated eating alone.. especailly after midnight.. it just seemed. decadent.. but..she was pregnant so she had an excuse(d)
Jocelyn Cotovartre: "Ay see... well, Ay jus be lookn out fer ye is all. Ye be go'n through much with tha babe. Its bad enough fer ye tae deal with it along with ye emotional state too." She paused a moment allowing some silence to speak for her. " Ye needn't be dealn with folks like him. Tis nae good fer ye...or tha babe." She continued to walk along beside her, nodding when Shaden asked it she'd like to join her. "Aye, Ay would, thank ye." Jocelyn hadn't meant to let on she had heard what had happened earlier, but it was true. The woman didn't need any more stress and well, being yelled at by some man wasn't exactly helpful. <d
Shaden Aramoire: Without thinking Shaden Laughed softly, letting the identity of the man in her room slip as it were. "Nicholas was just looking out for me I assure you I could not be in better hands " a blush stained her face as she realized her slip.. her hand soothing over the kicking babe beneath the robe... " You get the cake and plates and I'll get the tea " she chuckled... moving to take down a kettle and fill it with water, and prepare two cups... " So are you finding life here at the Lily... well? Enjoying the job?"she had been meaning to speak with Jocelyn see how things were going.. she had heard nothing but wonderful things from Gerda,, apparently the girl was a wizard at everything domestic.. including getting some particularly nasty stains out of bed sheets..!(d)
Jocelyn Cotovartre: Jocelyn's eyes cut to her with some slight show of weariness. The dark haired woman still wasn't sure how to take Nicholas. Yes, he was a fine guard... but sometimes she just got a different impression about him. "As long as he dun go steppn over his boundries... otherwise, Ay might be make'n him regret such a thing. Ay dun take kindly tae bully men..." She added as they reached the kitchen, Jocelyn moving to gather the plates and utensils. All were placed nearby and the cake sliced generously for them both. "Ye jus need tae be watchn ye self, dun go messn wit things tha ye be wishn ye hadn't tae begin with." She said as she then nodded to Shaden's questions. "Aye, all is well fer me since be'n 'ere. Ay must thank ye again fer allow'n me tae work 'ere." <d
Shaden Aramoire: "He's not a bully Jocelyn I assure you... he was right to have taken me to task... I was in the wrong.. and if he had not of cared.. he would have just let it lie... it shows his caring.. and all is well " she sliced a lemon into wedges then brought the cups, lemon tea leaves and some cream to the table.. while they waited for the kettle to boil.." It is I who am grateful for your work.. Gerda says you do the work of five women, and set a great example for the others... I should tell you she has asked me to give you a raise.. which.. you will find in your next pay.." a soft smiled as the fork was picked up.. and a bite of cake taken.. scrumptious.. but lacking something.. up she went again to the cold box.. digging thru it until she found what she wanted.. leftover salmon from dinner.. bringing it to the table she slid a chunk of it onto the sweet icing of the carrot cake and took a bite.. " ohhh so good" she mumbled with her mouth full.. damn pregnant cravings would turn most peoples stomach (d)
Jocelyn Cotovartre: "Jus as long as ye know what ye be gettn with him." She replied back before going quite as she listened to Shaden give somewhat of an explanation what the fuss was all about earlier. "Tis true... some men be able tae be good. Jus...vera few o'them." Jocelyn just smiled and chuckled with the compliments that her Lady began to give her about her work ethics. "Ay jus be do'n wot Ay know. Some things Ay be good at, others Ay be better." Brown eyes watched the red head as she moved across the kitchen floor in search of something more. It seemed Jocelyn was a little sluggish with responding about the raise, but once she thought on it a lil more she finally spoke up. "Thank ye MiLady, Ay jus hope ye be give'n it tae me cause ye think Ay deserve it and nae jus as a hand out. Ay dun take wot I dun earn." She said with a smile. That smile seem to grow a lil more as she watched the odd combination of food Shaden was now enjoying. A slight shake of her head was made as she chuckled.<d
Shaden Aramoire: "OH if Gerda is pleased enought to recommend it I assure you deserve it fully " she moaned in blissful heaven as she ate the salty fish with the sweet confection.. the kettle boiled , tea fixed and both Ladies sipped.. Shaden filling her tea with copious amounts of honey and lemon.. " Nicholas is a good Man Jocelyn.. he has my and the babies best interest at Heart.. not all men are... dogs...(d)
Jocelyn Cotovartre: "Tis good tae hear then... and thank ye." She said once more as the small woman was enjoying her cake and tea too. "Ay dun know o'many good men...jus believe wot Ay be see'n is all." She said in between bites. "'ave ye thought o'a name yet? Fer tha babe?" Wondering what would she be calling the baby by as both girl and boy. Jocelyn found most people had names picked out for both jus in case they didn't get what they had hoped for.<d
Shaden Aramoire: "Somewhere in my heart I know it's a girl... Joy Nichol.." she smiled softly... " I haven't picked out any boy names ..yet " she frowned.. yes she should do that just in case... shouldn't she... " Any suggestions?" she lifted the fork peering over it before stuffing her mouth once more with cake and salmon (d)
Jocelyn Cotovartre: "Aww.. sounds lovely..." She said with a huge smile as a couple more bites of cake were had and then washed down with sips of tea to follow. At Shaden's question of suggestions for a boys name, Jocelyn laughed. "Ay 'aven't any idea as to go abouts on name'n a child. Especially iffen it's nae mine." Jocelyn glanced to the clock for a moment and then looked back to Shaden. "Ay be sure ye will soon 'ave a boys name too." <d
