“Uh yeah…” Ernie said nervously. “I have two rooms ready because I wasn’t sure if Ben wanted to sleep alone or not. But he could sleep up in the tree house if he wanted to…”
Ernie began to head toward the estate with Terry right next to him. His heart was pounding as they entered through the front door. Tilson was there smiling up at them with a tray of hot tea in her hands. “Thank you.” He picked up the two tea cups and offered one to Terry, then sipped his own. He smiled down at her and she curtsied then went on her way tray in hand.
Ernie and Terry continued walking toward the stairs and headed up. When they arrived on the second floor he headed down the hallway and pointed to the room right next to his.
“This will be where you will be staying.” He said adding a nasal tone to his voice and stuck his nose up in the air, obviously mocking the stereotypes that people had about butlers. He grinned hoping that he could cover up the fact that he was both nervous and extremely excited to be alone with Terry. His heart began to pound even louder as they entered into the room.
