The men left and Rachel showed us our room. The room was charming and had two beds as Rosamund and I would be sharing.

"So I didn't get your names." Rachel beamed.

"Keyland Jones." I said.

"Rosamund..." Rosamund replied watching Rachel warily.

"Nice to meet you both!" She smiled.

"Rachel I have a question." I stated.

"Uh huh?" She said.

"What is the deal with you and tall dark and brooding?" I smirked.

"Oh Sebastian? We met a long time ago. He saved me from a murderer." She said with a dreamy look.

"What about you do you have a special person in your life? A boyfriend perhaps?" She said sitting down on one of the beds.

"Not a boyfriend. Just a friend. But he saved me from a murderer too." I said noting the similarity.

"Is he handsome?" She said devilishly.

I blushed as I remembered our kiss.

"Yes very." I squeaked out.

"And you are attracted to him?" She giggled.

"Well..." I said my face turning red.

"I can tell you are! You should ask him out!!" She suggested smiling.

"WhaT?!" I sputtered.

Rosamund Giggled despite herself.

"What about you Rosamund?" Rachel said turning to her.

"What about me?" Rosamund said defensively.

"Do you have anyone in your life?" Rachel said captivated.

"Please who could love an assassin?" Scoffed Rosamund.

"Apparently Rachel." I said helpfully. Rachel turned red.

"I should go make supper..." She said running out of the room.

Rosamund and I giggled as Rachel slammed the door behind her.
