After her shower she dressed herself with clothes from the dresser. Jasper came back and she gave him a little smile. She was certainly much more presentable now. He lead her to the kitchen where she was introduced to the chef. She shook his hand shyly and looked around with wonder. She had never seen such a large and beautiful kitchen in all her life. She was feeling much more comfortable with Jasper at her side, but she still couldn't shake the slight feeling of misplacement. She belonged with him, but did she belong here?
The chef asked her what she wanted to eat, and all she could do was shrug. He made her an array of things and she sat with Jasper at the table in the kitchen. She tried everything and ate some more of everything. It was all so tasty. She wasn't used to so much food, and stopped when she realized her stomach probably wouldn't hold a single bite more. There was still a lot left, and she felt awful wasting it. She looked up to see Jasper watching her and blushed a little. It really shouldn't be this easy for him to get to her... but he did. And she liked it.
