XI- curiosity

Bella and Max walked in together, (Y/n) felt it was nice to see the both of them growing a bit more comfortable. Bella was still stuck up and Max was still folorn but the two of them had been getting on that morning.

Angelo was next to enter, albeit pretty sluggishly. He practically collapsed beside (Y/n) on the couch and she laughed a bit at his entrance.

"Regretting all those pancakes?" Dottie raised an eyebrow at him as she recalled how he ate almost half the sweets she made.

"I'll never...regret pancakes." He groaned out.

Last to arrive at the meeting was Hana. She silently entered and sat as far away from anyone else as she could manage.

"You missed breakfast." Bella said with a hint of envy that this other woman could get away with missing it and she couldn't.

"I'll eat something later." Hana kept her response as short and succinct as usual.

"No bother about that for now." Tim dismissed, he of course did want Hana to be attentive at group events and activities and that included meals but he didn't want to reprimand anyone early on and lose popularity. "The first thing I have to say that you'll all be glad to hear is that these meetings won't be daily but weekly instead."

"That's still way too many." Eli scoffed in irritation. "What are we even going to talk about?"

"I'm about to get onto that." Tim said stiffly. "We'll get there when we get there, but now for the next order of business." He fished multiple bits of paper from his pocket. "I slaved away last night creating maps of the house for all of you, I gave (Y/n) her's last night but here are all of yours."

He handed the maps out and all the players started to inspect them.

Dottie found herself looking for one room in particular and flipped the paper over when she didn't see it and scrunched up her nose.

"Is there a problem?" Tim asked.

"(Y/n)'s room isn't on here." Dottie mumbled.

Tim's dark blue eyes widened. "Oh, silly me." He chuckled falsely and shrugged. "I must have accidentally left it out on your maps, I suppose if it's on (Y/n)'s own map then it's not a problem."

"What if we want to find (Y/n) or visit her room?" Owen was also unhappy by the absence of (Y/n)'s sleeping chambers.

"Why would you need to visit her room..?" Tim addressed the question to both Dottie and Owen who didn't reply.

"Look guys, I'm sure you can find it yourself and mark it on there. No big deal." (Y/n) found it strange that of all the rooms to get left off it was her's but she guessed it must have been becuase she was in the attic.

"If there are no other questions about that then we can move on?" The blonde didn't have the patience to get may further into this. He left her room out on an uncontrollable whim, he didn't expect anyone to actually care. "Great. I propose these weekly meetings take place on the same day as our shipments so that way we can discuss whatever has been sent."

A few individuals nodded in agreement as Tim continued.

"At these meetings I will assign work for the week, this includes cooking and doing dishes as we've already seen. But there's also vacuuming, dusting, polishing and I've also out in some activities for us to do as a group to-"

"Oh, no way." Eli cut Tim off. "The only good part of this hell is that we have no work or responsibilities and now you throw this shit at us as well as... organised fun? What kind of a psychotic waste of space does that?"

Tim used every fibre of restriant within him to stop himself from rolling his eyes. "You can't just run wild, there won't even be much to do."

"I don't care if the house is clean or not." Eli sunk further into his chair with a scowl and crossed arms.

"It improves mental well-being to be in a well kept environment." Tim informed the ravenette through gritted teeth, the grip on his piece of paper was causing it to crumple at the edges.

"Jesus Christ..." Eli sighed out at what he would call 'voodoo wellness crap'.

Just as Tim was about to retort, Bella spoke up. "You two are insufferable, please shut up. Tim, just finish off what you were saying."

"Thank you, Bella." He straightened up and moved on, pretending that the spat had never taken place. "For today, Eli will be cooking lunch and Angelo will do the dishes. Owen's making dinner and Bella will wash up afterwards. Max and Dottie are vacuuming the hallways and bedrooms together since it's quite an extensive job, Hana will dust off ornaments on the mantle piece in here." Tim read off his list. "None of these tasks should take you over an hour unless you wish to spend longer on them. You're free for the rest of the day to do as you wish."

(Y/n) furrowed her eyebrows. "What am I doing today?"

"Ah, (Y/n), you are to help me in devising the rest of the work for this week and then at the end of the week there will be someone working with me to make up a spreadsheet for the following one and so on." He said with a warm smile, looking forward to working with her.

"Why aren't you doing anything?" Eli sneered.

"I oversee you all, I keep everything in check." Tim turned to look down at Eli as he had the advantage of height while standing.

"Sounds like bullshit to me-"

"Eli!" Bella shouted. "Both of you need to just ignore the other, we'll never get anything done otherwise." She tucked some of her pink hair back into the bun that had been misplaced when she yelled.

Eli glared at the woman but kept his mouth shut.

"Thank you again, Bella." Tim composed himself.

"You're just as much to blame, I did for the rest of our sakes not for yours." She spat.

"Well... If no one else has anything to say then that concludes our meeting."

The rest of the members of the household were totally silent. (Y/n) glanced over at Owen, wondering if he was going to speak up about the etching in his room but it looked like he was keeping that very much between the two of them.

Tim looked around to check that no one was trying to get his attention but saw everyone averting their eyes from him. "I'll see you all at lunch then. (Y/n), would you come to the study with me?"
