Derek nodded releasing her arm at her, what he considered, rather irritable
request. Though, it could have been much worse and he knew it. He'd caught
the bad side of her temper on more than one occasion as he had hers. "She
is a young woman I met through the university. To tell you the truth I am
not at all certain where she picked up the name of the Legacy. It was not
from me. I do recall inviting her to visit the house sometime as she has a
keen eye for antiquities, that was quite some time ago though."

Julia looked thoughtful and walked with him back into the house "Then where
did she get the part about the Legacy I wonder..."
She stopped then and sighed quietly, putting her hand on Derek's arm and
stopping him before they went any further "I'm sorry, Derek.. for whatever
it was I did earlier."
She wasn't exactly sure what it was she had did but a little something had
shifted when they had left the library to start the tour. Julia was pretty
sure her apology would surprise him. She wasn't one that usually apologized
unless she was wrong and knew she was wrong - and right now she wasn't even
sure why she was apologizing except she felt like she had done something
wrong or... she didn't really know. It just felt different than when they
were heading home.
