"Excuse my mate...she's not a people person." Blaine said, in a grave voice. "But never mind that, let me show you out."

           "Thank you. Thanks for all the hospitality, Nora. Mr. Reeves, when will you require me?"

           "Saturday please. You can commence your lessons then."        

           "Will do. Have a good night." Tifa said, nodding her head before departing with Blaine.

           Nora remained standing for a moment, rubbing the back of her neck. Looking up she caught Quinton staring at her intently.

           "What?" She asked.

           "You still smell strongly of me." He drawled, approaching her steadily.

           "Not because I want to." She remarked.

           "We can't always have what we want." He whispered as he came behind her and dipped his head into the crook of her neck. Nora's eyes fluttered closed and she let out sigh as his hands snaked around her waist. "I like the smell of me on you. Everyone knows who you belong to."

           Quinton lightly kissed and nipped at her collar bone, causing Nora to shudder before she pushed herself off of him.

           "I belong to myself." She shakily said as she tried to pull herself together.

           "You'll reconsider soon enough." Quinton stated firmly, striding past her and out of the dining hall.  Nora shook her head, trying to clear her mind. Things were getting too heated with her and Quinton and she needed to come back to Earth. 

O.o.O.o.O.o.O.O.o.O.o.O

It was night now and everyone was tucked away. Nora couldn't sleep yet. She felt out of sorts. She sat up in bed and turned to the night stand and picked up the phone. She sat there with her phone in her hand, dumbfounded for a moment because she couldn't recall her house number at first. It came to her momentarily and she bit her nails as the waited for someone to pick up on the other end.

           "Hullo." A gruff voice said.       

           "Daddy." Nora spoke, giving a sigh of relief.

           "Nora! Is that you?" Eddie cleared his throat.

           "Yes, D. D. It's me Nora."

           "Nora! I haven't heard from you in so long. How are you, love?"

           "Fine, for the most part. I'm still...well...adjusting."

           "Adjusting, eh?

           "Yeah. Believe it or not I'm still getting used to things. There's a lot of stuff that I have to keep up with."           

           "Like what?"

           "Well...I have just gotten a body guard hired for me. I have a tutor coming tomorrow, and some doctor's appointment upcoming.  Apparently my inability to change needs to be examined."

           "The beta is putting you through the wringer is he?"

           "Somewhat. Nothing I can't handle, pop."

           "Are you happy though, Nora?"

           "D.D, I can't say that I am right now. It's hard being so far away from you, James, and everyone else at home. It's different here...I feel like so much is expected of me."
