Buttercup

‘Well, hello Miss!’ said Buttercup brightly to the Hobbit lass who had just come into the Inn. Dark golden curls framed a pretty face on the young hobbit. ‘I don’t believe I’ve seen you here before, have I? asked Buttercup, swiping the table in front of the Hobbit lass with her rag.

‘Now, what can I get for you? We’re still serving a late lunch and there’s tea, or ale, or wine if you prefer. Or cider,’ she said, remembering that a jug of cool cider was sitting in the pantry, just fresh squeezed that morning by the apple tree farmer just down the road a bit.

‘I’m Buttercup, by the way,’ she continued, waiting for the Hobbit to decide on her order. ‘And what shall I call you?’
