The Butler and The Maid (MasterOfWhispers and Venthooker.)

[MasterOfWhispers]

"Hey, once we finish our training lets come back here and work together. Promise?"
Those were the last few words he uttered to her. It would be about five years later when he returned to the manor to offically begin his service as Mistress Lane's butler. He oftened wondered if that promise would hold up.

Leo Linus was at the gate entrance to Lane Manor. It had felt like eternity since he was here living with his father. Now that his training was complete, it was about time that he continued the family tradition. So may many of the servants had come and gone. He wondered if a certain childhood friend would return. He had sorely missed her when he had to part ways with her.

The newly instated butler entered the manor with keys already in hand and that were handed to him by the owner prior to his return. Of course Mistress Lane was rarely ever home travelling and working. He took in the features carefully. It still was as huge as the last time he lived there. With grand gothic architecture of the main hall. To the hundreds of rooms that filled the house. Leo found himself smiling as he passed by each corridor and hallway remembering how he often played hide and seek with his dearest friend. As he laid his suit case down in one of the rooms. the manor bell began to rang. Leo's heart skipped a bit. Was it her? He quickly ran to the door, and went to answer.

Amelia hoped and prayed as she road in the car that would be dropping her off at her mitresses home. She played back a small memory of her and Leo's conversation the day they both had parted there seperate ways. She had loved him then, and still did to this very day. She wondered if he would hold up on his side of the deal and return to the place they had last seen eachother. She was doing her part now, and only prayed that he would do the same.

After what had seemed like a days drive, but really in reality was a mere three hours, she watched as the great gates to the Manor slowly rolled open. Introducing her to her old, and new home once again. A wide smile began to play at her lips and she let out a light sigh. A part of her was nervous to find out if Leo was here or not. And I part of her was scared. A small part. The part that was wondering what would happen if he did not show. 'Never mind that..' She thought to herself as the car came to a rolling stop. She opened the door from the inside and stepped out, her one suitcase in hand. She was told to come with only a few outfits, and that she was to wear her uniform when she arrived. She had one a plain black and white maids outfit, just as anyone else. And there were a few packed in her suit case as well.

She approached the wide doors and pressed the small button on the side as she waiting patiently for someone to answer. When the door came open, she almost dropped everything she was holding. "Leo! Is that you?!" She asked as she stared at a young man that almost exactly resembled the young boy she had left five years ago. She could not beleive it!
