Luke? He was right there in front of me. I couldn’t help it. My heart started beating a mile a minute. 

“Can I come in?” I was stunned. Stupefied. Holy mother of... “Sure.” I said moving out of the way so he could come inside. Why was he here? 

He suddenly turned inches away from reaching my bed, “I just needed to know you were okay.” 

“Why would I not be?” I asked confused taking a few steps towards him. 

“Philip can be a little bit of an ass sometimes.” I couldn’t believe what I just heard. Yes sure Philip could be an ass but Luke was a helper he couldn’t be talking like that around people. 

“Luke you can’t just walk around like you own the place okay?” He smiled at me, a knowing smile. Was he doing this on purpose? “I’m being serious, you could get yourself killed.” At the though of that my heart protested. Shut up heart. You don’t get a say in this. 

“You care about me?” Luke started teasing walking closer to me. 

“Um...”Great Emily you just dug your own grave...“Of course I do. You are my helper! I care.” I hope he buys it.  

His face fell a little and my heart fluttered. He wanted me to like him.. more than just my helper. He wanted me to care. “Right.. Um.. I have to go now. I just wanted to make sure you were okay.” He suddenly said and started leaving. 

No, I didn’t want him to leave. I searched for reasons why he could stay but I got none. 

“Goodnight Luke.” I bowed. He smiled a little when he heard me use his name and not his last name. 

“Goodnight Emily.” and with that he was gone. Disappointment took over me as I changed into my pj’s and got into that cloudy bed of mine. 

Okay heart... We have to work on this relationship we have, if not it could get very messy. You can’t just protest every time I don’t do what you want. I know what is best for us so just shut up. Plus we don’t even know him that much... Plus he will get us killed. We can’t do this. And with that I drifted into a happier place.

Far too soon my alarm clock went off. I looked towards my bedside table. 7:30AM. Better wake up.  

In this past two days I had already created a routine for myself in this foreign mansion I had the honor to call home for the next few days and if I act how I’m supposed to, how I’m expected to, maybe I can even stay here for life. Yeah, I liked that. 

I left my cloud of a bed and showered. I needed the water to wash off everything that had happened. I was going to have to give Philip another chance. I can’t just hate him for no reason. What was wrong with me? He is my ticket out of here alive! I only had two more nights left. Two nights ands three days. I had to make them count. It is true that he doesn’t treat the helpers as he should but at least he treats me well right? 

Yes. It is settled. I will be nice to him. I have to. I dressed and a blue cocktail dress and cream pumps. A little bit of makeup here and there and I was ready to face the new day.
