JD had been about to answer Desiree when the stranger came into the kitchen.  The man looked very familiar to Jude but he did not say anything about his suspicions.  It was none of his business if the son of one of the wealthiest men in town wished to live some kind of double life.  Just as long as no laws were broken Jude could see nothing wrong in this.  It took courage for a person to break out of what was considered to be their usual box or comfort zone.<br/><br/>Since both Victoria and Desiree had stood up to help this new man who introduced himself as Vaan the Marshal also stood.  After Desiree had given the man his coffee Jude said, "I hope you don't mind to much Mr. Vaan but Desiree there and I were about to go and have ourselves a private chat."  JD had been there enough to know they had there own system for spreading word of trouble makers should the need arise and besides if this was indeed the man Jude thought him to be there would be no need to worry about the ladies.  Stepping up behind Desiree he laid his hand gently on her shoulder as he said, "To answer your earlier question a room is only a place with four walls.  What makes it special is the persons company you keep while in that room.  Which ever room you wish to use will be perfectly fine with me."
