Welcome to Gaia! ::

She sat on the steps of the main entrance to the mansion. Not feeling the need to impress anyone she wore a worn gray sweater over a white spaghetti strap tank top. She tapped her sneakered foot to the beat of the music that was playing on her Ipod. Every once and a while she would turn it to the lock screen to see the time before locking it again and throwing it in her pocket. The new maid wasn't suppose to arrive for another fifteen minutes but because she had nothing better to do she had been sitting there for the past hour enjoying the warmth of the sun and the occasional breeze. She laid down across the length of step staring up at the sky like she always did when she was outside. She had never met her mother but her father said that she too would often be caught looking at the sky. That people with great destinies had their hearts trapped in it and were always searching trying to get them back. She closed her eyes and let her music lull her to sleep.

She opened her deep blue eyes, glistening purple in the sunlight, to view the sky once more before stretching out and siting up. She flicked on her Ipod and checked the time before she watched the seen of the delicate young girl being helped out of old fashioned car by one of her butlers. Her hand ran though her black hair, bushing it from her unmarked face, before returning to her sweater pocket. She stood up and dusted of her tight fitting blue jeans while still observing the girl. The girl was doing good so far. She was already in her maid outfit and had arrived punctually as promised. "If she keeps this up, I may have a fine maid on my hands," she smirked to herself. She took her time in making down the stairs, slowly dragging her feet, her Ipod still humming in her ear. Standing in front of the girl she stuck out a tanned hand. "Welcome to my Mansion. I do hope we can get along."

She saw the butler grabbing the maids bag so she walked over and put her hand on his. "It all right alex, I got it. You have a long drive back to my fathers mansion and I don't want to waste you time on something simple like this." He opened his mouth to argue but quickly closed it when he saw the look the mistress was giving him. "Thank you Miss laura," he stuttered. Bowing quickly her got in the vehicle with Laura watching him drive of. She reached out and grabbed the bags tucking some of them under her arms. Walking with ease she glided to Madoka side. "I'll be escorting you to your room Asuka" she informed her maid. Walking forward she called over her shoulder "You might want to stay close to me if you don't want to get lost." A butler waited for her at the top of the steps holding the door open for them.

They wandered into the vast front foyer that was decorated with the finest silk tapestries, paintings and stone statues. They venturing up the massive marble staircase her sneakers gripping the floor. "Your bed room will be on the second floor with along with mine and the other girls," she explained as she walked. "It's your first day here so I'm giving you the day off so you can begin to get your footing around here." she stopped in front of a dark wooden door with a silver number 7 mounted to the door. "I believe this is the room you requested." Laura stepped out of the way to allowed Madoka the privilege of entering before her to before her.

Laura waited a few moments before she followed in after her maid. "The room is as you requested," she said almost questionably. "If you want something more extravagant it wouldn't take long to decorate. I want you to be comfortable during your stay here, so If there's anything that make your stay more pleasurable, inform me of it." She readjusted the bags in her arm and watched the girl still being bathed with sunlight. Her smile complimenting her look, her blue hair glistening.

"You may be my maid, but that does not put you on any lower grounds than me," Laura said walking up to the girl and using a single delicate finger to lift the girls chin. She explored her face before meeting her eyes. "You have not given me a reason to treat you as a lesser being so I won't. Therefore, there is never an out of term." Her other hand came up and brushed some stray strands of hair form the girls face. "So please speak freely around me." She dropped her hands and flipped her own silky hair over her shoulder before turning away. "I'll leave you to unpack your room. If you need me I'll be in the garden." She walked to the door before grabbing onto it and looking over her shoulder back at the quiet maid, a small smile on her face. "And please, just call me Laura." She quickly turned into the hallway her long hair flowing behind her, and made her way to the garden.

Laura twirled a small dark blue flower between her fingers as she sat on the edge of the giant circular fountain, looking up at the sky. She had never been some one who worried about things but she found her mind drifting to the thought of the new maid she had met that morning, hoping that she was finding everything Ok. A breeze blew though the garden, causing the flowers to sway and her hair to flow out behind her. She sighed, tossing the flower from her hand into the water. It swirled around in the current having no choice in what direction it when. Looking at it made her think of herself. She leaned down occasionally taping it gently with her fingers as to not submerge it.
