Maurice groaned softly as he stirs awake from his dream. Without wasting a second, he immediately got on his uniform and went to go wake up the young master, Mark. Walking up the staff stairs and through the kitchen, Maurice walked up the grand staircase to the large hall filled to the brim with rooms of all sorts. Maurice walked himself all the way to the end of the hall where the young masters room sat. He slowly opened the two big doors to the room and walked over to Mark bed, gently ringing the bell that lies on Mark's nightstand.
"Young Master, it's time to wake up."
Mark groaned. "No... I'm still tired."
"Sir please, you have classes today."
"Yeah well... it's you teaching me so, like, uhm... yeah." Mark said sleepily. Maurice sighed and told Mark he'd come back in a bit to get him up. Maurice then walked to the exit and closed the two big doors to Marks room, starting to go to the kitchen to make Mark and the other staff breakfast. They used to have a chef when Mark was younger, but he never seemed to like any of the cooking the chef made, until one day Maurice made Mark a dish. From then on Maurice had not only been the main butler but also the main, and only, chef. Although the maids help cook for staff from time to time.
Maurice slowly walked back up to Mark's quarters with breakfast in hand. Knocking on Marks door, Maurice slowly walks in.
"Sir? You have to get up now. I have breakfast." With that, Mark immediately got up and put his glasses on, his hair disheveled.
"Food? By you right?"
"Yes sir, by me." Maurice nodded. Mark smiled and carefully took the plate of food. Walking over to Marks closet, Maurice picked out some nice clothing for Mark and set it on his bed before walking out of the room to check on the other staff.
Throughout the day, Maurice had taught his Young Master, dropped off and picked up his young master on his date, and finished with a peaceful night of sitting by himself with some warm tea. He carefully drank his tea, sighing in contentment, taking a bite of his biscuit. Once he finished eat he wiped his face before heading back inside the small mansion and heading to the kitchen. Rolling up his sleeves he started carefully washing the dirty dishes from the meals earlier that day.
"Maurice? Ah, there you are." Lily smiled, a dust wand in hand. "Cleaning the dishes I see, are you sure you don't want some help?"
"No thank you, madam. I'm alright. I may be older, but I can still do many things." Lily smiled and nodded before heading into the basement where the staff bedrooms were kept. Maurice continued washing the dishes until his arms started to ache ever so slightly. He then washed his hands before rolling his sleeves back down and heading to his quarters. Slowly Maurice undid his clothing, pulling them off, before getting into his night clothes. With that, he turned off the lights and got into bed. Facing the ceiling before slowly falling into deep slumber.
