Lestat's POV:
As we walked towards my mansion I could sense Marius was there, which made me smile. I looked towards Jesse, whom was carrying a now sleeping Danny in her arms. I would make sure nothing happened to the boy, as I actually was fond of his father the, moment I met him. We soon got into the mansion. I then sat down the bag that contained Danny's paints; and painting materials. "Hey." I said looking at Marius. "Hello. Who's he?" Marius asked referring to the boy. I looked over at him, then back at Marius. "Danny Corven. We're watching him while his parents are at their honeymoon." I explained. "That's nice." Marius said. I nodded my head.

I watched as Marius looked at the bag, then back up at me, as he raised his eyebrow. I let out a light laugh as I looked back at him. "It's his paints; and painting materials." I said. "I see. Is he sleeping?" Marius asked. I nodded my head, as Jesse turned to where Marius could see Danny's sleeping face. "He seems well behaved." Marius said. "Yea he is." I said. Jesse laid him down on the bed I never used. A few hours passed; and soon Danny woke up. I looked up to check on Danny; and that's when I noticed him awake. "Hey kiddo." I said. "Hi." Danny said. I smiled a bit as he walked up to me. "What is it kiddo?" I asked. "Is your friend here?" Danny asked. "Yea. I'll get him, you wait here, okay?" I said questioningly.

Danny nodded his head as he looked at me. I then went to the main room to get Marius. "Marius." I said as I tapped his shoulder. "Danny wants to see you." I said. Marius nods standing up; and followed me back to Danny. "Here he is kiddo." I said making Danny look up at me; and Marius. He then smiled as he looked in Marius's direction. "Hello little one." Marius said. "Hi. Are you the one that paints?" Danny asked. "Yes I am." Marius said. Danny took Marius's hand; and pulled Marius over to his paints. "I think they'll get along." I said. "I agree my love." Jesse said as she rested her head on my shoulder.

Soon it was the day that Danny would have to leave, as his parents had returned from their honeymoon. As I had become close with the young boy, I offered them to stay at my mansion, to which they gladly accepted. Since Jesse knew how to cook she decided she'd do that for them. "Marius!" Danny said as he tugged at the sleeve of his red velvet coat. "What is it buddy?" Marius asked. Danny pointed at his parents; and led Marius over to them. "This is my father Ashe; and my mother Sarah." Danny said. Marius nodded his head in acknowledgement. Both Sarah; and Ashe nodded back. Later that evening they departed; and went back to Los Angeles.
