They flap carefully,each feather fading from black to light grey. He smiles gently,the dark halo above his head a gentle reassurance. Am I going crazy!? At any minute, I'll find myself back at that alley in the rain,after being knocked out.

He chuckles gently. "It's a pleasant surprise,isn't it dahling?" He picks me up,bridal style,flying down smoothly,landing carefully by the fountain and setting me down. "These fish are the pride and joy of the fountain" he points at the elegant looking fish, obviously unaware of my shock. Numbly I turn my eyes to the water, watching the fish swim,their scales shimmering in the sun. There are some speckled,some black,some white and a few reddish ones. I get so caught up in their calm movements, it takes me a couple minute's to realise Steph's still talking. "-and therefore I feel that big black one is Ivan. Who next,hmmm,ah yes Carlisle!!" Thankfully it wasn't too important. I look at him as he leans closer to the water,his wings tucked into his back. "Hmmm...,I think this one here. It looks like a very prideful fish" I nod absentmindedly,looking up at the mansion,catching sight of someone in one of the windows. It's too dark to see who it is but star never mentioned who was in the other top room. By the time I've blinked however,the person is gone.

Steph seems to be a rather sociable guy,so maybe he'll know. I turn to him,as he finishes his rambling about who's fish is who. "Steph..." He looks round at me,before straightening up with his constant smile. "yes dahling?" I point up to the room that I saw the person in. "What's that room up there? Like,by mine?" He goes quiet,his smile fading as he grabs my wrists again,leaning in,his expression unusually serious as the air seems to get colder. "You must never talk about that room. Don't go near it. Don't try enter it. That room is none of your concern" I look down nervously. "I saw someone in there....just...watching us" his grip tightens,causing me to gasp as a red hot pain spreads through my lower arm. "I...." He scoops me up again,flying back up to his balcony,landing on it and heading inside,his wings and halo just... dissapearing as he sets me down on his bed. "Stay here. Don't move. I'll be right back" he hurries out,leaving me there. I shiver slightly. What was so bad about that room that scared him?

Even though he told me to stay,I get up and exit his room,jogging down the hall. He's two floors below me and I suspect I don't have much time. I run up the stairs on all fours,my stomach tying itself in knots as I leg it down the next floor,ascending the floor to my level. I slow down,approaching the other door quietly. Nerves run throughout me the closer I get. I can't hear anything from within,so I kneel down to look through the keyhole.

From what I can see,the room is empty. I let out a sigh of relief,before jumping as a hand clamps down hard on my shoulder. I go to scream,but my mouth is covered by a softish hand. "(Y/n)....when we tell you not to do something,it's usually for a good reason,so if you'd follow out instructions,I'd appreciate it greatly" Lorenzo's smooth voice purrs in my ear. I look over at him,at his gentle smile as he moves me away from the door,before letting go of me. I stumble away from him nervously,watching as he stands in front of the door. I glare at him. "Then stop hiding the truth from me! Not telling me makes me want to know!!!" I stomp my foot almost childishly, sniffling. Lorenzo let's out a small chuckle. "I can't tell you the true nature of what's in here,but know this. It could kill you. It probably would kill you. It's for your-" he's cut off by stars cry of "(y/n)!!!" I turn to look at Star,who runs over,tackling me in tight hug,bringing us both to the floor,pushing the wind out of my lungs. I wheeze as he looks at me. "(Y/n),when you weren't in Steph's room I got scared!! Don't run off like that..." He sounds generally upset,which hurts more than Lorenzo's vice grip on my shoulder had. I look away quietly as he buries his head in the nape of my neck,shaking. My own curiosity hurt star.....

He just keeps us in this position until he's completely calm,slowly moving away,wiping tears from his eyes gently. "It's only your third day here I know.....I'm sorry" he sniffs. The tears in his eyes set me off as I burst into tears. It's my turn to hide in the nape of his neck as he strokes my back gently. "Just promise me one thing (y/n)....that you won't enter that room..." I nod as I keep sobbing into him...

A weird month after that incident,I find myself sat in Star's room,watching as he finishes stitching something. He chuckled as he lifts up the object in his hands - a jumper in my favourite colour,with a picture of hearts and stars on the back. He turns to me with a gentle smile as karma purrs gently in his sleep,his head rested on my lap. He's taken to doing that more and more. "(Y/n),does this look like it'll fit you?" He smiles gently,scanning my face as o look at the jumper

In the last month,I've learnt a lot about the inhabitants. For one, Star is in fact THE famous fashion designer, surprise surprise,called Star. Nate runs a well known game show,Steph is the face of fashion,Ivan and Lucas run a toy store together,carter's a secondary school English teacher (scary), Archer - unsurprisingly - works at a strip club,Hunter's a surprisingly good cook and jayden's a well known actor. Another thing - Archer has three pet snakes. Silver, Merry and Jace.

I smile at Star. "It looks like it fits. That,and you took my measurements anyway" i giggle slightly as he chuckles. "True true. Karma,move your head would ya? I want to see (y/n) in the hoodie!" Karma just let's out a sleepy groan,moving enough for me to get up,reluctantly. I do so happily,letting Star slip the hoodie on over my top for me. I look in the mirror happily,a smile upon my face. It fits rather nicely,both size wise and look wise. I smile more at him in the mirror,catching sight of an almost wistful look on his face. "Uh...thanks Star" I turn and hug him gently,deciding to ignore the look on his face. He gets down on one knee to my surprise,hugging back gently. "(Y/n)....your beautiful,you know..." I look at him in surprise. "H-huh?" It's not unusual for him to compliment me out of the blue. "....i think....I think I'm in love..."
