Aphmau's P.O.V.

I wake up to the sun pouring through the window. I can see the window because I slept on the bay window. I was watching the snow falling as I fell asleep. I have neck pains now though which is annoying. I'm just glad no one came in and saw me.

I hear a knock at the door and I fall off the seat. I let out a yelp and someone runs into my room.

"Aphmau are you okay!?" Garroth says running into my room

"Yeah I'm fine, I accidentally fell off the bay window" I say laughing

He smiles and walks over to me. He picks me up and lets me stand on my feet.

"Thank you" I smile

"So Aphmau, I was wondering if you wanted to grab breakfast me?" He says

"Oh I would love to, really but I can't" I say sadly

"Why not?" He asks

"I was asked to come to the kitchen for breakfast last night with Teony, you can come though" I smile

"Yeah I'd like that, let's go" he says grabbing my arm softly

"Hey wait a second" I say

"What's wrong?" He asks

"I'm still in my night gown and my hair is a mess" I say giggling "Give me ten minuets"

He leave the room and I grab a dress from my closet.

I brush my hair and clip it into a bun because I'm to lazy to do anything else. I don't bother with make up and. I go out of my room and I catch up with Garroth.

We walk to the kitchen and Teony greets us with custard tarts for breakfast.

"Are you trying to make me fat?" I say giggling

"With the amount of flips and running you do I don't think that's possible" she smiles back

We dig into our breakfast. While eating I tell Garroth and Teony what happened with Ivy. I swore them to secrecy and told them not to do anything. Luckily they agreed so I don't have to beg. I'm kidding, I don't beg.

Teony and I plan out lunch. Apparently she was so worried about me she forgot to cook lunch. The helpers aren't here yet because they help with dinner and cook breakfast after they cook dinner. Teony is all alone for lunch.

I help her chop up some vegetables and Garroth helps her with the meat. She says that she is going to have a day off so she can rest. She might go to the thieves cave to hang out with Shelby. Shelby has had a few days off so she hasn't been here. I wish she was, then I wouldn't be so alone.

We hear footsteps behind us and they stop. We turn to see Sky.

"Hey Sky, want to help cook" Teony asks

"Nope, Aaron is looking for Aphmau" he says

"Oh my Irene! I forgot I had to go meet him" I say quickly

"You go, I'll get Sky to help" Teony smiles

"Wait what?" Sky asks confused

I quickly clean my hands and Teony grabs Sky to come help the cooking.

"Wait, Aphmau what do you have to see Aaron for?" Garroth asks

"Oh just this... thing" I say as I quickly exit

It's actually more to do with that potion room. Laurance is busy with noble stuff so we don't need to wait for him. Inside the potion room everything looks the same. No one has been in here. Oh wait a second, there is a potion brewing.

"Hey Aaron look at the brewing stand" I say

"Someone's been here recently" he says as he walks over to it

"What type of potion are they making?" I ask

He looks at the potion book next to it and he gasps.

"What is it?" I ask

"It's a potion of invisibility, but it doesn't wear off until you want it to" he says

"That means the potion maker could be here right now" I say looking around

Aaron walks over to me and puts his arm around my shoulders protectively.

"If someone is here, show yourselves" he says

Nothing happens so maybe no one is here. Suddenly a potion falls onto the floor. On the opposite side of the room. I go to grab my k Ives but I forgot that I don't have them. Curse this dress to the gates of nether.

"We aren't going to fight you, or tell about your potion room" I say

Another few potions fall on the ground. Aaron and I decide to leave. The door slams behind us.

"The potion maker was there" I say shocked

"They didn't seem to happy that we where there" he says laughing

Aaron and I hang out until lunch. We go to he dining hall and sit down. The lords are back from their trip so we get to deal with Garte. Joy. He is staring at me with anger written all over his face, I feel Aaron grab my hand under the table and I  lam down a little bit. Which is hard to do under a gaze that could kill you.

"What is she doing here?" Garte asks

"Eating" Aaron replies

"I meant in the castle" Garte says

"Earring, in the castle" Aaron smirks

I try to mask my giggle as a cough. So does everyone else.

"She is a thief, she should be in the dungeon" he says

Suddenly a fork is stabbed next to Garte. No body is there. I focus on the fork and I see a fuzzy outline of a human. It's the potion person thing. Garte's wine is dumped on his head and the fuzzy shape walks away.

I don't tell anyone what I saw. But tomorrow I'm going back to the potion room  so I can see what happened there and why the potion maker did that. They did it to defend me I think. But I don't know why. Who are they? I guess I'll find out tomorrow.
