Downstairs

As the day progressed Norton was able to move from chore to chore without any problems, and as he was finishing his work the events of the earlier started slowly dissapating from his mind. He worked around the house subconciously avoiding the garden or the storeroom. Eventually he knew he had to enter the garden. It only needed a couple things cleaned and the tree needed a bit of repair. He walked in slowly, looking around as if too see if the coast is clear. It wasn't, Norton stepped in not seeing Lilith the mother standing near the tree admiring the new Eve. "How did she get in here?" He asks to himself "I usually hear the door and I know I did not here it open or close since Lillan left early this morning." He clears his throat to make sure he doesn't startle her. "Hello Mrs. Pendragon," Lilith turns to him with that familiar smile that still made him nervous but now it was much more bearable since he has gotten used to it. "Evening Norton," She begins walking toward him "thank you again for replacing Eve, she is such a handful and this new model seems to not be so much trouble now." She wraps her arms around Norton in that now common much to close, way to long hug the Pendragons seem to be known for. "I had to see what it looks like now, you know this Garden of Eden means everything to me."

It took Norton a moment to notice but Lilith was finally wearing something this century, a black leather jacket, a white tank top, and shiny black leggings. "She noticed him admiring her figure and laughed, "do you like what you see?" Norton quickly apologized and tried to explain himself, "Yes..I mean No...or, I have just never seen you without your dresses." Lilith chuckled and moved closer to him, "So do you like me in my dresses? or is this more your speed?" Norton was caught off guard, ever since he got hired here Lilith has teased him, she always would poke fun at his shyness and would make even the simplist of conversations uncomfortable. It was like a game to her, and she knew she was winning. She removed her jacket and tossed it over her shoulder standing in a pose you would see in a magazine. "I decided to switch from my dresses and go for the comfort look everyone seems to like these days." She stopped speaking and looked directly at Norton. "You know I do not like it when you avoid questions like this, do you like me better in this or would you rather see me back in my dresses?"
