Much, much later when primrose woke up she was in a medium sized bedroom. With light blue flowery wallpaper, two beds although one of which she was currently layed on and a wardrobe each. Primrose liked this room very much, it reminded her of her room back in her loop, which made her feel much more comfortable in a house she had only seen one room of and knows only three people in.

Her thoughts were interrupted by someone slowly opening the door and she turned to see Emma stood in the doorframe. "Ah you're awake" she said softly and prim nodded her head "how are you feeling?" She asked "Alright, is this your bedroom?" Prim asked the girl who had now sat down on the bed next to the one she was laying in. "Yes, and yours now if you'd like" "oh really? I'd love that. It's beautiful!" Prim said a little bit too excitedly which made Emma laugh. "How long have I been out for?" "Quite a while, it's the next day,but angie has settled in pretty well I think." Emma said with a smile.

Then everything came flooding back to prim and she sat up quickly, ignoring a searing pain in her forehead "my loop, Emma do you know whether they're alright?" She asked, her voice laced with worry "miss peregrine went to check the moment she made sure you were alright, when she got there no one was home which means they were probably taken. I'm so sorry." She said leaning down to place a comforting arm around her as she stared straight ahead. "Miss peregrine has contacted the council of ymbrynes to let them know and they're going to check whether your friends have made it to any other loops or if anyone's heard anything" "thank you. You've been ever so kind"

As they finished talking they went back to a comfortable silence before angie burst in the room. "Angelina! Miss peregrine said no visitors until primrose is ready" Emma said sternly to the girl stood excitedly in the doorway "I know but I couldn't wait!" Angie said "it's okay, i don't mind her coming in." Prim spoke up before angie ran over to climb on her bed.

Angelina was wearing a new pink dress which she assumed to have been given to her and now her hair was neatly tied up. "Oh prim! I love it here and so will you, I know it!" She giggled, bouncing up and down. "Why's that little one?" Prim laughed along with the girl "there's a library so you can read me even more stories! There's so much garden to explore! And-" she leant in to whisper in prims ear "you can marry the boy who caught you! Just like in the storybooks!" She said, getting louder than she originally meant too. Prim was suprised by what Angelina had said, she didn't even know who the boy was and even though they were actually all quite old, in body they were all still young.

"Now Angelina. I don't think anyone is getting married anytime soon. Now go and play with olive and Claire" miss peregrine said, sending the little girl off with a small laugh. "Primrose, I'm glad you're awake! It'll be dinner time very soon and we were wondering whether you felt up to joining us tonight or not. There will be enough time for you to bathe firstly and you can borrow one of Emma's old dresses to wear tonight ana hopefully we can go out soon to get you some new ones from the village" She explained "that sounds lovely, thank you miss peregrine"

"Miss bloom knows how everything works so I trust you're in good hands" miss peregrine said with a nod, before walking out of the room quickly. Emma stood up, clasping her hands together "I'll show you what you can wear tonight" Emma said, before walking over to her wardrobe and pulling out a gorgeous yellow dress and some small black heels. "Oh they're beautiful!" "You can keep them prim, anyway I'll show you what to do now" she said, leading prim into the room next door and showing her how to work everything before leaving the girl alone. Prim looked around the room while her bath was running, she couldn't help but be nosy.

Once she was done she hurried to put the clothes on, worried to be late as she didn't know how long it was until dinner. Primrose stared at herself in the full length mirror, she looked pretty rough for having been asleep for a day she thought to herself, making her let out a small chuckle. Prim was interrupted from her staring by a small knock on the door and picked up her shoes, which she was yet to put on, and hurried to open the door. When she opened the door she was met by a boy who looked to be about prims age, he was staring down the corridor as if he was bored to be there and prim cleared her throat to catch the attention of the boy, which it did and now she could properly see his face which before was partly covered by his hair, he was cute! Prim felt funny, she had never felt this way before by just looking at a boy. He introduced himself with a smile "Hi I'm Hugh!" He put out his hand for her to shake, which she thought was a bit odd but shook it anyway. "I'm-" she was interrupted "yes you're primrose! Everyone's very excited to see you, miss peregrine wanted me to come and see if you were ready"

The pair walked down to the dining room in complete, and kind of awkward silence. "I can give you a tour of the house after dinner if you'd like?" Hugh said, after noticing prim looking at their surroundings in awe and realising that she hadn't seen most of the house yet.

When they reached the room there were already multiple children at the table already, Hugh hurried to his seat not realising prim wasn't following but lingered in the doorway feeling out of place. Quickly though, Emma and Angie noticed her and beckoned her over, she sat in between the two girls and realised she was right opposite Hugh, just great.

Emma started a conversation first, making sure Hugh was being nice when he went to get her and such, soon afterwards miss peregrine walked in followed by a few children who all hurried to their seats. "Ah primrose! I'm so glad you could make it" miss peregrine said in her usually cheery voice, now everyone was staring at her. The rest of their meal went on pretty smoothly though, the girls being bombarded with questions from the younger children. Angie gave most of the answers with prim giving minimal input. But primrose couldn't shake of the feeling that someone was staring at her.
