Hearing footsteps, Vashti turned and blinked when she saw someone at the back of the kitchen.....the man from behind the glass? 
  Standing straighter she looked at him for a moment; sizing him up and taking note of his every feature. He was actually pretty handsome....when he wasn't snarling past a mouthful of cookies. 

  At the sound of his stammering words she couldn't help but chuckle and take a step foreword, "Hey calm down. I don't bite....usually..." 

 She moved even closer and smiled at the warm mugs of hot chocolate, "I'm sorry if I startled you....when I was at the door....Hadn't expected to meet so many other people...." 

  She nodded at the mention of food, "I can help you with the food if you want. I'm Vashti."
