"Louis woke up the next night. He had slept the whole day as Lestat and i made up with each other in our coffin" I said with a small blush on my cheeks "But I didn't sleep, i knew that the second the night rolled in again we had to face the issues at hand." I spoke as I glanced at Daniel
I looked up as Rachel walked into the room again, she came and gave me a large book- one she had asked to bring me the hour before.
It was dusty and old and even when closed it looked open- its pages full and protruding from their bindings.
I smiled at her, in thanks, as she passed the book over to me. I watched her turn before i stopped her.
"Rachel?" I called
She stood and turned to me, unspeaking just like always.
I smiled at her before i gestured for her to join me, sitting across from Daniel at the dining table.
"How about you sit with us for this part?" I ask her "I haven't told you much about how i found you" I smile as she sits next to me "I will be getting to that part later, but it wouldn't hurt for you to listen"
I look back over at Daniel and he is just blinking at me, letting me see his, bored, unimpressed face
"Really?" He asks
I smile "I told you the truth Daniel Molloy... Rachel helps me around my house... but she's not here as my maid" I say as i smile at her.
Daniel just shakes his head before leaning into the mic
"I'm now sat with Victoria Archambeau and Rachel..." He trails off as he looks at me
"Rachel?" I ask her as she looks towards me for permission, i nod for her to speak
"Rachel Archambeau" She clarifies
Daniel looks at the two of us for a minute before he shakes his head
"Why am i not surprised" He mutters "Victoria and Rachel Archambeau" He then clarifies, louder, into the mic
When he looks back I'm smiling
"You don't know everything Daniel" I clarify "Just because i said i wouldn't lie to you, doesn't mean i can't hold information"
He raises his eyebrow as he looks at me
"And have you been holding out information, other than Rachel's Parentage?" He asks
I shake my head "No... but I'm not Rachel's Mother" I clarify
"Sister?" He guesses but i shake my head
"Aunt?" He guesses again
"Daniel, you're skipping ahead" I say as i mock what he had said to me before "I won't skip ahead... you can understand that, right?" I ask, passive aggressively
He sighs with a roll of his eyes before he nods
"So we are at the day after you and Lestat got back together-"
"-We were never broken up" I interject
"It's the same thing" He fires back
"Lestat won't let you live if you write that" Rachel mutters, softly, almost inaudible
Daniel stills as the room drops its sound. The words spoken by the girl, softly and with apprehension, caused the most impact.
You could have heard a drop of blood fall from the table and start to pool on the floor.
