***Chapter 4***

*Rooms, Chip and a Thump*

"Jem what did Charlotte say?" I question as I dust off a mahogony table. Jem grunts as he slides the couch to the side.

"She said thank you, and that we better stay safe. She expects to see us soon. And the kids were thrilled about the presents. Especially Justin, he was estatic about the transformer." Jem replies with a smile, the corners of my mouth lift up just thinking about their happy faces. I wish I couldve seen it.

However, I still don't regret my choice. Kavan is a kind man.

As we place all the furniture back, Jem mutters complaints," Now why do we have to help clean? After all we are guests." He frowns.

"Well for one it's called kindness. Next the butlers and maids are busy, and from what I recall, Kavan assigned you as a maid." I respond with a smirk. Jem furrows his brows.

"From what I recall, I declined the all so generous offer." He responds with sarcasm, I laugh and sit on the couch.

This place needs new furniture, badly. We were able to clean everything, but the scratches and tears are permanent. So it's clean, just old and used looking.

Kavan insists on keeping the curtains; he says he doesn't want anyone to see in and he prefers to feel like he's in his own world. I'll let him be for now.

Jem plops down next to me," Do you think the rose is dying yet?" He asks.

"Its only been a day, it's most likely fine. Though I wonder where he put it. Also shouldn't our rooms be done today?" I wonder; Kavan had us sleep with the servants, while he fixes us rooms.

"Yeah, hope they're cool." Jem muses and puts his head on my lap. Its not at all weird for me because we've always been close. I begin playing with his hair, well more like messing it up to the point that he looks like a mad man. Jem closes his eyes and I look around the room in boredom.

"Youre rooms are ready." A forced polite tone comes from my left. I look over to see Kavan with clenched teeth and his velvet tail flashing furiously. I roll my eyes, he's like an angry kitten who wants all the attention.

"Thank you Kavan." I respond and he smiles, loving his new name; I stop messing with Jem's hair because Kavan's eyes are watching my hand closely. Jem cracks his eyes open and looks at Kavan's frustration. He smirks, but sits up properly. Most likely, because he really fears Kavan.

We get off the couch and walk toward Kavan, where he calls over Lumiere. We walk up the curving stairs and Lumiere then lights the way down a dark hallway. He stops in front a room and opens the door.

"This is your room Jem." Kavan mutters as Lumiere turns on the lights. I gasp at how nice the room is. It's in different shades of blue, a huge bed, black dressers and white rug. Jem also seems to like it as he sincerely tells Kavan and Lumiere thank you.

Jem and I are used to small rooms with old furniture so this was absolutely stunning.

"C'mon now we'll show you your room." Kavan smiles, I smile in return and give Jem one last look before we leave him to check out his new room.

We walk a few steps down the hallway, before we stop. However, I notice that there's lights on in the room. Lumiere opens the door and my gazes zooms in on a little boy jumping on a purple four poster bed.

He's adorable and I begin laughing as he freezes and his eyes widen in surprise. I hear footsteps to my right and I see Mrs. Potts running down the hallway, her curls bouncing.

"Chip!" She scolds, to which the boy hops off the bed and atremts to flee out the door. Lumiere catches him and also scolds him.

"Im so sorry, he ran off while I was cooking." She apologizes.

"Its fine." I reply with a smile, Kavan also shrugs as if the whole ordeal was no big deal. Mrs. Potts sighs in relief and grabs Chip's hand.

"Well Sophia, this is my son Chip and as you can see he is trouble." She greets with a smile. I chuckle.

"Hi Chip, I'm Sophia." I say, he waves a hello at me.

"Well we'll go back to work. I hope you enjoy your room." Lumiere says.

"Yes it's beautiful." I say as they begin to walk off, Mrs. Potts dragging a solemn looking Chip.

I return my gaze to my room and I smile widely as the room is filled with shades of purple, a four poster bed with now messed up sheets, white furniture and a white rug. The rooms us very clean as though it's never Bern used and has a victorian style that I love.

"Like it?" Kavan asks hesitantly, his catlike eyes watching me closely.

"Yes it's stunning." I reply, he smiles widely showing his sharp teeth. I walk in the room, he follows behind me. I decide to not fix the sheets because it's almost night time. So I plop on the bed and look at all the art paintings in the room, including Starry Night by Van Gogh which I love.

"Are you and Jermayne really close?" Kavan asks hesitantly, I chuckle as ever since I told him Jem dislikes his real name, he uses it. They're like little boys fighting over the most trifle things.

"Yes, we've known eachother since birth." I reply with a smile.

"Oh." He says solemnly.

"Why? Are you jealous?" I tease, he frowns, his ears drooping.

"No." He mutters quietly; I stop short remebering that Kavan most likely has never had a really close friend. So he probably envies Jem for the relationship I have with him. Of course, he's too prideful to admit it.

I reach over and pet his head to play with his hair like I did with Jem and show him that he's also somebody close to me; he jumps away and I laugh. He's skittish like a cat too.

"Sorry." I giggle and he looks at me in utter shock. I suppose nobody has ever been brave enough to get close to him and play with his hair. His body is tense and his eyes watch my every move.

"What was that?" He asks.

"I was going to play with your hair like I do with Jem." I respond, his eyes soften and his body relaxes.

"Okay." He responds and slowly comes closer. He is extremly shy, I wonder what caused him to be this way. He looks at my lap and I roll my eyes.

"You can put your head on my lap." I say, he places his head carefully on my lap. I have to hold back my laughter at how shy he is. Though it is adorable. He acts like a tough man in front of everybody else, but he's actually a softy.

I let my fingers play with his silky black hair and I expect to hear a little purr out of him. Sadly, I don't except for his muscles relaxing. He looks at me curiously, but I look away from his hypnotizing eyes. I look at his ears curiously. Would he love it if I scratched them as much as a cat would? I scratch behind one and I look at his face to see him close his eyes in appreciation; I stop a chuckle from coming out and scratch the other ear. I look at his closed eyes and don't doubt that he is lost in his thoughts again. Suddenly his eyes open and focus directly into mine. I feel my heart thump quickly at his intense look and quickly look away.

"Dinners ready." I jump at the sudden voice and look up to see Cogsworth looking at us curiously. Kavan gets up.

"Okay, thank you Cogsworth." He replies and stands up. He stretches and looks at me with a soft look." Shall we go?" He holds out his hand and I nod numbly, taking his warm hand with now trimmed nails.

I wonder what causes my heart to respond the way it did?
