       What a girl needs... (St. John Studious)

       Again, she is left waiting in his personal chambers to speak
       with him. And again she falls into the old habit of preparing
       his room for morning... and as usual there was little to do
       since little actually transpired here besides sleep and reading.
       She took fresh robes from the chest and laid them out to be
       sure they were wrinkle free upon his waking and turned down his
       bed, trimmed the wicks on his candles and lamps, straightened
       already tidy papers and organized the bottles and vials by size.
       It was busy work to keep her mind occupied until he arrived. It
       kept her from dwelling on the past...

       *she had not even finished when he arrived*
       Hello my Daughter
       *he saw what she had done and smiled*
       I thank you but that is no longer necessary from you. . . waht
       can i do for you this evening? or is this a Social visit?
       *something was off his demeanor seemed almost as if pleased to
       see her*

       His voice struck that same chord in her heart it always would.
       She laid the quill she had been cleaning down and turned to
       greet him
       "Good evening my Sire."
       She crossed the distance between them and took his hands in
       hers..well, she held his fingers like a child, her hands being
       too small to hold his truly. She looked up at him and smiled.
       For the first time in forever he did not sound rushed or
       bothered by her interruption of his evening.
       "Sire, I know it is not necessary...I do it because it keeps me
       busy while I wait...and I like doing this for you, I like
       knowing that I can do something to make your night easier...or
       makes you smile. As for my reason for being here, I would be
       delighted if it could be both. I always feel as if I am keeping
       you from your work. If you have time, I would love to talk a
       while with you. If you are busy, I simply wished to use the
       library tonight...and a few other nights to come."

       *he listened an drubbed her fingers with his as she spoke to him
       and he nodded*
       Of course my Dear feel free. . .
       *he moved to the desk drawer and pulled it open and handed her
       the key*
       Please enjoy the fruits of our continous labor. What do you plan
       on learning this time or do you wish to Harass and torment
       Mycha?

       The key dropped into her hand as his words pierced her heart.
       Perhaps that feeling that he was happy to see her was just
       wishful thinking. She sighed
       "Why must your words always be so double edged? When you say
       "enjoy the fruits of our continuous labor" it sounds as if you
       are bestowing upon me something you believe I am unworthy of. If
       you feel I have not earned the right to use it, say so. Tell me
       what labor you expect from me to gain this right and I would
       gladly put that labor in. It pains me that you seem to begrudge
       your own childe this when Myca is given free reign to come and
       go as he pleases ... to learn whatever he pleases without
       question...despite his open contempt for you."
       She shook her head as she looked away from him
       "Why must we do this every time?"

       *he actually Laughed for a quick moment*
       Was not ment you are not contributing. . . you do so daily with
       all I see you do.. .

       She looked at  him...then the key...then him again. Several
       emotions flashed in her eyes before she stopped and looked at
       him once more...  almost suspiciously. one eyebrow arched high
       and nostrils flared as she looked for the trap in the statement.
       "Really? ....  for me? ...because you trust in my- ... wait,
       what? What do you mean "all you see me do daily"? Are ...are you
       spying on me, Sire?"
       Now she had to worry about exactly what he was watching her
       do...and where..and with who!

       *he shook his head no with a smile*
       Not spying on my daughter that sounds rather Perverse like
       something a Toreador would do. I have heard things the kids from
       the Orphanage, the Dream Circle,  things like that showing that
       your heart trully beats not for ones own self but for others
       even more so. You bring me Hope that the Obertus line will
       endure and flourish for Centuries.

       She relaxed and tried not to laugh at the Toreador comment
       before running to throw her arms around his waist. Her head
       still fit perfectly under the curve of his ribs and she could
       easily reach around him....But none of that mattered, it never
       had. He was perfect to to her and to hear that her choices
       pleased him...gave him hope...was everything to her. She held
       onto him and her voice cracked when she finally spoke
       "Thank you, Sire. I have tried ... since the beginning to...I
       just wanted...I had given up hope of ever..."
       His robes smelled of clove soap and blood and she lingered there
       within that scent a moment before looking up the length of him
       "You know you were my first love... I suppose all girls love
       their fathers first. I will always love you..I wish you had come
       to the wedding, it would have been nice to have my father
       there."
