A Volturi Story- Dusk Till Dawn

Breakfast With The Secretary

We headed down the corridor and took a turn left, which then lead us to another corridor and that's pretty much all that happened, It was literally corridor after corridor, with a set of stairs every once in a while. The silence was boring and being the silence hater I was I tried to break it by starting some form of small talk with Jane.

"Thank you for letting me borrow you clothes, I didn't think I would have needed to carry around a spare pair with me in my bag yesterday," I couldn't help the sarcasm that slipped in at the end because really I liked to think of myself as the Queen of sarcasm. "I wouldn't have expected you to, but your welcome I never wore them anyway, they weren't really ever my style." Jane had stated in an almost far of voice that seemed verging on the point of bored. We then resumed our walk in silence, "they look good on you," Jane had said sounding less bored than before. The smile that appeared on her face was nice and warming and I couldn't help but smile back at her, "Thank you, I'll take that as a compliment." I had replied but not watching where I was going I ended up knocking into Jane who had seemingly stopped.

Jane opened the door we were currently standing in front of to reveal what looked like a kitchen. "Here we are this is the kitchen," Jane had announced and my eyes immediately started to scan the room. As we both walked in I could see the large outer top placed in the centre of the room, it had a white marble top and a grey base and draws, then I saw the fridge other cabinets and finally the cooker, which had a women standing over it.

"Ah Jane, your here and this must be the girl you and the Queens were talking about earlier," The women had said, sparing a glance at Jane then focussing it on me. The women had dirty brown hair that had been pulled up into a bun with a few loose strands at the front of her face, she wore a grey figure hugging dress that complimented her lovely sun tanned skin perfectly, she matched her Dress with a few long silver necklaces and seemed taller than me but that was probably due to the fact she was wearing a pair of high stilettos.

As I was checking the women out to see what she looked like, Jane had coughed and pulled me out of my train of thought, she clearly didn't look very happy that I was looking at the other women in the room. "Anastasia is this is Gianna our secretary and Gianna this is Anastasia," Jane had introduced me to the woman I now as Gianna and we both shook hands, "it's lovely to meet you Anastasia, I hope you don't mind but I've made breakfast," Gianna had a very soft voice and thought it was really sweet of her to spend her own time, making my breakfast as well as her own. "Thank you Gianna, you didn't have to do that," I has said making sure she knew that her actions were very much appreciated. We both walked over to the table that was next to a set of windows allowing natural light to enter the room, but sadly todays weather seemed rather glum compared to the usually hot and sunny Italian weather.

"It was no problem at all, I enjoy cooking and I was going to make my breakfast anyway." She has explained as we both sat down and Jane decided to stand at the doors, seemingly waiting for us to finish, I mean God no pressure or anything, would it have killed her to sit down with us or is she just so stuck up that she just has to be so annoying. I didn't really know what to talk to Gianna about, because I didn't even know where I was or who any of the other people who are here are, so we were a bit stuck on conversation topics.

I had praised her on the found because it was absolutely delicious, she had made us both a cornetti, which was actually one of my favourite breakfasts and I learned that it was also Gianna's. Gianna had tried talking about her drop or some of the other people that lived here but each time she did I'd either hear Jane making some sort of noise, or Gianna would simply stop mid sentence, probably also due to Jane. I mean what's her problem if I'm going to be here for gods know how long then I would at least like to know a few things and at least try and make a friend in Gianna.

The only information I had got was that Gianna had been working here for seven months and that was the only time she tried talking about this place, I could see she was trying to make an effort to be friendly and trying to find a topic we could both converse about each time either of us tried Jane would either cut it short or we'd loose interest in some random question.

Finally I had finished eating breakfast and I was relieved, not because I had Gianna as company because she was actually a really lovely women and was only a couple of years older than myself, but because breakfast was just so awkward especially since Jane was stood by the door seemingly waiting for me to be done.

As soon as I had been finished me and Gianna had gotten up from the table with our plates in hand. "Do you want any help in tidying up Gianna," I had asked because it was the polite thing to do and was trying to stall a much as possible, because I knew the next stop after breakfast would being seeing these Queens again and really I didn't want to at all, I didn't know what their intentions are, for all I know they could want to kill me or force me to stay her or something along those lines.

"No it's quite alright Anastasia, I can do it," Gianna had answered and I felt my stomach drop and my chest tighten as she answered, that's definitely not the answer I wanted to hear. I turned to the side and some how Jane was suddenly by my side grabbing my arm, "That's Gianna thank you, lets go now Anastasia," Jane started to yank at my arm, clearly she was trying to pull me out of them of the room, "First of Jane I'm not a doll for you to drag around and secondly you can call me Ana, Gianna we're friends now aren't we?" Jane had groaned at what I had said and she didn't look to pleased that I had said Gianna could now call me Ana.

After I had finished speaking Jane swiftly dragged me out of the kitchen and all I could see was Gianna waving goodbye to us both, does Jane have selective hearing or something or does she just not pay attention, I said no to the pulling on my arm and now that's all she was doing.
