Hearing that he simply escorted her, Freya nodded. Upon exiting the apartment, she had sent the text off to Dianne who responded quickly in confirmation before she had even gotten all the way down the stairs. Her first class went by quickly, as her and Dianne stopped by Alex's afterwards to gather the notes. He looked a bit surprised that Dianne was tagging along, but passed the missed information to her anyway. It went over smoother than she had intended - but Freya was glad.Her biggest worry was that Alex would be cold towards her after what had happened. Her stomach growled, as did Dianne's, sending the girls into a giggling fit.

"Haha, let's head to my apartment. I asked James this morning to get lunch all ready for you this afternoon since it's been a while." Freya smiled. Dianne grinned obviously excited. "Oh, yay! James really knows his way in the kitchen!" The girls headed into the apartment, and once they had eaten their fill, relaxed until their next classes came up.

Just like that though, the weekend came upon them.

----

Freya gasped as her world was literally rocked, sending her shooting upwards in a frenzy. "Huh? Wh-What?" Freya had to blink a few times to realize what just happened, or who jumped onto her bed. "Uhm...Alice?" She guessed, stretching her arms up in a yawn. "What are you doing here?" However, hearing that it was a girls day, Freya blinked in surprise. "Oh?" She knew she couldn't lay back down with Alice here, and pulled the blankets off her and moving to the edge of the bed, watching as Annie moved towards her closet.

At the mention of her clothes, Freya's face flushed in embarrassment. "I haven't had much girl time." She tried to defend, opening her mouth to protest at Annie's teasing about her dressing to impress. However, Annie and her loved shopping and simply unwinding together, so Freya simply smiled as Annie had picked something she deemed suitable for Freya and headed out. "Of course, of course." She nodded with a wave to Annie's request for details. She stood up and got changed into the outfit that had been picked out for her after showering, jumping slightly at the coughing sound that she heard near the bed. "What?" She moved over to try to investigate, but figured maybe she was just hearing things. With a quick look again, she headed out towards where Annie was and sat down at the table, her eyes gleaming at the look of the pancakes that Annie made. "Oh it's been forever since I've had your cooking, Annie." She grinned. "James is taking this weekend off, huh?" She asked, pouring syrup onto her stack before beginning to eat. "So, what all did you wan to know?" She asked with a grin.

Freya didn't stir much as she was moved from the couch to her bed. The next thing she knew, her alarm was going off and she groaned, opening her eyes to find her vision blurred for a moment, before clearing up faster than she realized. Reaching instinctively for her glasses on the night table, she blinked, feeling them on her face from last night. Gah. She had to do better about that. But...wait. Wasn't she with James last night? On the couch? She groaned as she pulled herself from bed.

After her morning routine was finished, she emerged in her chosen outfit for the day. Rubbing her eyes, she looked at James as she sat at the table, thanking him for the breakfast. "Hey, James..? What happened last night? I woke up in my bed, but I swore I was last on the couch." She asked, as she ate a forkful of the scrambled eggs and sausage that she had cut into smaller pieces. Freya rubbed her eyes, still trying to fully wake up. The warmth of the food helped her, as it settled into her stomach. Reaching to grab her tea, her eyes caught sight of a crumpled piece of paper, and a crisp one. She instantly recognized James' handwriting and picked it up, taking a slow sip of the warm beverage, her eyes scanning over its content.

Upon reading it, she glanced up towards him over the rim of her cup. "Ah..," She thought a moment. "I can go and grab it after class. It'll be over near the classroom building, anyway. I don't want you to go out of the way." She smiled, and placed James' note down and folded up the crumpled note that Alex had left. It would be a good chance to try to smooth things over with Alex since when he was last over things did kind of get awkward. She wouldn't go by herself, and thought about a solution to that without having to get James interacting with him. She knew that James would be fine doing it, but she still felt uneasy about having the two of them interact without others.

"I'll text Dianne. She'll accompany me - besides we can just head over after class today." Giving pause, she glanced around the apartment, and put a finger up to her lips, in thought. "I might have Dianne join me when I come home for lunch this afternoon. Can you prepare an extra serving of what you have planned for her, please?" Freya finished her breakfast and stood up, giving a well needed stretch before going to go grab her backpack from her room. Once she re-emerged, she smiled towards James. "Does that sound alright with you?"

She pulled herself from the cooling waters, and gently pulled the stopper that was keeping the water held in, noting the catcher for the petals at the bottom. She placed the stopper onto the edge of the tub before stretching and properly drying herself off. She dried her hair with a towel, causing it to fluff up a bit but settle back down to her waist. Placing the towel into the hamper, she pulled on her pajamas and headed out of the bathroom, the steam from the warm bath still foggy on the mirrors, and following her out as she exited.

As she made her way back to the living room, she saw James standing in front of the couch, holding the cups of hot chocolate in his hands. She gently hugged him from behind and moved around him, and took her cup from him, setting it down on the table in front of her, before grabbing one of the folded blankets from yesterday evening and pulled it over them as she sat onto the couch once James had taken a seat beside her. “Hey, hope I didn’t have you waiting too long out here. I know I take forever, but your baths are my weakness. I think I would stay in there forever if the water didn’t ever get cold on me.” She grinned, taking a sip of the warm drink. “I’m so glad Aunt Mia sent me these pjs. It’s so warm inside James, oh my gosh!” She giggled, getting a marshmallow and leaning against James. Picking up the remote nearby, she put on an action/drama movie while they sipped on their hot chocolate.

She finished her warm beverage during the movie, thanking James for the treat, and relaxed against him as the movie went on. By the end of it, she was already fast asleep. With the warmth of the hot chocolate warming her from the inside, and the plush blanket and James’ body heat warming her from the outside, she found it relatively easy to drift off, shifting a bit to where she was more comfortable, her head on James’ chest, exhaling in content.

It was late into the evening, about ten minutes after the movie had ended, and there was a rather odd knocking at the apartment door, and a crumpled piece of paper was slid under the door. Freya happened to be a pretty deep sleeper, and at the knock, simply shifted again and turned on her side.

‘You missed notes in class. Took some for you. Come by the apartment when you get a chance so you can get caught up. Randolf Hall – Room 21H. *Alex*'

Surprised that when she opened the door, James slipped right by her and headed right for the bathroom. She couldn’t help giggling. She figured he would have none of that – her helping. He always wanted Freya to just relax, but that’s exactly what she wanted of James when he was not working. He did say that he was not going to neglect her duties, so she couldn’t argue very much. She was going to head into her room to gather a change of clothes, but James had begun talking so she gave pause.

At the mention of their hot chocolate time, she smiled. “Right – I’m not sure one does like being stood up for a promised cup of warm chocolate.” At the mention of wonderful company, she felt a warmth in her chest. They did enjoy each other’s company – able to relax considerably and talk about almost anything. She appreciated that, watching as he walked back into the apartment and closing the door gently with his foot since his hands were full and back into the bathroom. Giggling at him as he came out, still sitting in the living room, she tilted her head curiously. “How do you do that, James? I think I might have flooded the bathroom.” She laughed, sliding off the chair and headed towards her room. “I’ll go grab a change of clothes since I couldn’t before – save I be rude leaving in the middle of someone talking to me.” She teased with a grin as she closed the door behind her to her room to pick out some comfier clothes.

Gladly removing her shoes, she put them by her closet doors where the rest of her shoes lie and grabbed one of her comfier pajamas. The night out had been great, and so had being on the ferris wheel, but the night air really had her shivering. She needed to get warm asap. The bath would help her get warm, but she needed to stay warm after she got out and grabbed a plush gray onesie with snowflake decorations on it that her aunt had sent her last Christmas. She grabbed her brush and then headed back out and in passing James, waved. “Thank you again! You should probably shower and get changed into your pjs too, James. You know I take forever in baths.” With that, she entered the bathroom and set her change of clothes down before sighing. Unzipping her dress from the side, it slid to the floor and she removed her undergarments, putting them into the basket that was inside the bathroom. The air inside the bathroom smelled divine and she gently began brushing her hair out, before sinking into the warm steamy water.

A sigh of content left her as she sank into the water, noticing the petals that were scattered in. Freya smiled and her cheeks gained a small amount of color. Leave it to James to think of the little things. She leaned into the water more, enjoying it for about twenty minutes. She wanted to take full advantage of the warmth of the water, saving to wash her hair until she was just about to get out. She did have to get out, though. If she didn’t then she was sure to get sick. Besides, she had hot chocolate to look forward to once she got out.

Freya felt her heart swell when she heard the sigh that came from James. As he took her hand and kissed it, she thought about the bath. “Did you want to enjoy the cocoa together?” She asked, and agreed to the bath. “A hot bath does sound nice. As beautiful as it is out here, I’ll need to get warmed back up so I don’t get sick.” She giggled. “I know you don’t want me to get you sick, right? Then I would have to take care of you.” Freya teased.

They were soon back at the ground, and she got out of the carriage with some help from James and gave a few yawns as they made their way back through the fairgrounds, vendors putting away what they had set up, and rides carrying their last passengers. They arrived back to the car, and once she was in and buckled, Freya watched as the open evening sky changed into the familiar scenes of the university. She was surprised they had been out all day, but at the same time it still felt like time could just go on forever. They did eventually arrive, and once she had gotten out, they walked upstairs to their rooms.

Just as the woman had said, there were boxes of everything they had bought today. Putting her key in, she opened the door and began un-braiding her hair in a mirror nearby, gently removing the sunflower that James had given her and put it on the counter nearby, leaving her hair falling back down to her natural waist, though a bit waved now because of the hairstyle she had been wearing. Remembering the boxes outside, she turned to James. “Did you want me to carry a box into your apartment, James? My bath can wait a moment until we unpack everything. Unless you wanted to wait to do it a different day?” Her new candles and bath oils were in one of the boxes, and she was sure James already had more around the apartment.

Freya was so glad that he agreed, and they got into the carriage. She watched as he sat across from her and wondered if he just wanted the space. That was crazy, though. They had been pretty close all evening. The Ferris Wheel ascended higher and higher, and Freya looked out, seeing all the lights from the city. She turned around in her seat, her knees on the chair under her as she looked out in awe. “This is beautiful. I don’t even know if I could recognize home from here even if I wanted to.” She giggled. It got to a point where the Ferris Wheel slowed to a stop. They weren’t directly at the top, but maybe a car or two from it. Looking over at James, she thought about something for a few moments, and decided that since the Ferris Wheel had stopped, she got up and sat next to James. Once she was beside him, she wrapped her arms around his waist, feeling the warmth coming off of him. “There.” She smiled. “That’s so much better. I was starting to get kind of chilly with the night air moving around.” She giggled. She let her head rest on James’ shoulder and sighed in content.

“Today was really amazing James, I mean it.” Freya grabbed his free hand and began fiddling with his fingers. “I wish it didn’t have to end..” She finally said after some silence between the two of them. "...James," she began. "I really enjoy seeing you be yourself. I love it. You're such a goofball and your smiles are contagious. I'm really glad you're relaxing around me.." Her warm brown eyes looked up at him. "What about you, James? You think today has been pretty good, right? You know - besides you getting new knives." She laughed lightly, and thought for a moment. "What are you going to do when we get back home?"
