Lessons IN Love
Hey. Thanks for all the reviews for chapter 1. Here's the second part written by the lovely Emma. Hope you like it . :D:D
Marian woke up as the sun rose over the trees in the back garden, slowly crawling over her face. She stretched out and smiled to herself, remembering the previous days events, she couldn't shake him from her head, needless to see his gorgeous face plagued her dreams, it was strange, maybe it was the way he had taken care of her, knowing nothing about her that made her weak at the knees, or his playful nature and well needed cockiness that made her stomach bubble, but either way, she was feeling something she never had before.
She didn't want to, she had been through too much, when her mother had died, it was a shock to everyone, she was still active in her career when they lived in the city, l flying in and out of the country all the time, she wasn't told what really happened, all she knew was the plane crashed and no one survived. It was on the news for a short while, but with no suspicious causes it was cast off as a tragic accident. She lost her mother, the friend she counted on, and now she was left with her father, however amazing he was, she needed a mother. All girls did. that's when they moved here, well among other reasons which didn't bare thinking of first thing in the morning, but apparently her father blamed her high powered career for it all, and vowed that his daughter would never end up like that, so they moved to Nottingham, to be more of a suburban family, however that was quickly cast off when he bought the house without really looking, it was more like something from a gangster movie. Yesterday at school she had overheard things she only saw on the Godfather or CSI. And there were more security measures everywhere around the school, as well as random bag searches, and body searches. She heard stories of knives and even guns being carried, but she hoped they weren't true.
After a few minutes she dragged herself from her bed and began to get dressed, picking a casual outfit, consisting of, a pair of tight jeans, a dark blue ribbed vest top and a pair of black boots. She looked in the mirror and bit her lip, making sure everything was in place, she decided on a little makeup, some eyeliner and mascara, with a little nude lipstick. She straightened her hair and smiled as she picked up her black bag.
She hummed to herself as she walked into the kitchen.
"Father? You are home? Wont you be late for work?" she asked seeing him in the kitchen, obviously lost something.
"I Cannot find my keys!" he fumed.
"Father?" Marian said in a high pitched tone. Edward turned to see her smirking and pointing to the door where the keys hung.
"You re a wonderful child!" he kissed her forehead and went for the door. "I am working late again, I might not be home until 2 or 3" he said sadly. Marian sighed.
"Okay, have a good day" she turned to find a cereal bar she could eat, hearing the door open.
"Marian?"
"What did you forget now?" she called.
"Nothing smart ass .you have a visitor"
Marian smiled, she couldn't help it, although she did believe he would walk her to school, she never thought of him as going through with it, but he was here. She walked through th kitchen door and smiled seeing him at the front door, leaning against it as he was speaking to her father, they shook hands and Edward smiled before he left.
"Good morning fair maiden, might I say you are looking pretty damn hot today" he smiled cockily.
"Makes one of us then" she smirked. Throwing her book bag over her shoulder. In truth, he did look hot, a nice pair of jeans which she was afraid to see the back of in case she couldn't control her drool, and the front, which she just noticed she was staring at and quickly whipped her head up, big mistake. She looked dead into his emerald eyes and felt her body go weak. He was also wearing a white shirt, you know the ones that every guy with muscles should wear, that showed everything! Yeah, that one. And boy did he have the muscles. She couldn't help but let a loud gulp fill the room. Robin smirked.
"Are you ready?"
Marian smiled and nodded, grabbing her keys and walking to the door. Robin walking right by her side.
"Thanks" she smiled half way down the street.
"For what?"
"Walking with me, I know its probably the last thing you would want to do" she smiled gratefully, the sky was darkening, she thought it looked like rain, hopefully it wouldn't hit before they got to school.
"Well now that's just not true" he laughed, "There is nothing I would rather be doing"
Marian laughed and blushed a little. He loved to see her blush.
"So what do you have first?" he smiled.
"Erm .P.E with you" she giggled
"What you picking?"
"Maybe swimming again"
"I don't think so .my sources tell em the pool was .spiked last night" he grinned.
"Spiked? With what?" she scoffed.
"You don't wanna know" he laughed.
They walked in a comfortable for a few minutes, she noticed every so often when they walked on the same foot, their arms would brush together, she let a smile play on her lips.
"So, do you like it here?" he asked, hands in his pockets.
"Its .different" she said blankly.
"Different? Surely you know that this is one of the roughest parts of Nottingham, I mean you are lucky you haven't been shot yet" her eyes shot open, he stopped, "JOKE! IT WAS A JOKE!" he laughed, she let out a breath and they laughed.
"No, not really, the way my father and I were told, it was a wholesome neighbourhood and a good quality school?" she rolled her eyes.
"You didn't even see the house before you left?"
"Nah, he did It over the phone"
"That's weird?" he laughed
"We left in a hurry" she said sadly. Robin saw her face, she was in pain, not physical, but whatever they left for, it was bad.
She looked over to him and saw the wondering in his eyes. She smiled
"It's a long story" she stated, he heard the please don't ask me again even though she didn't say it. He nodded and smiled.
"Well, we are one of the high classes fair maiden" he grinned. Marian laughed,
"Ahh .see here .we even have our own art " he pointed to the graffiti on the walls and she laughed, "and our own Vallay's " he pointed to the drunken bum on the bus bench. Marian smiled and moved a little closer to him, so they were constantly touching arms. She saw him smile and continue walking, then she saw his face change.
"Robin?" she asked. Then she felt his arms slink around her waist like they had the day before,
"Cross the street" he stated
"What? Why?"
"Come on Marian, just follow me, stay close"
Marian was confused, but when she looked up and saw the group of about twenty boys a little older than herself she tensed and gripped on to Robin for dear life. She held her breath as Robin guided her over the road, keeping his arm tightly around her small waist. They grew closer to them and then she heard them.
"Oi Locksley! Who's the bird"
Marian tightened her grip on him.
"Just keep walking" he whispered right into her ear. She nodded and didn't even look up at the boys.
"I said who's your bird Wanker!" one of then yelled.
Robin turned to them, "Fuck of George!" he yelled. Marian looked over, they were all dressed basically the same, something between a chav and a goth, whatever that was! She saw them leering at her, everyone of them looked at her as if she was a piece of meat. she felt her skin crawl as Robin gently tugged her along.
"We'll go through the alley, its quicker and they wont go down that way" he smiled.
She nodded as he quickly tugged her down the opening,
"I'll see you later hottie!" one of them called. Marian just scoffed as they came to another derelict part of the neighbourhood. Only this was a little more frightening. Abandoned and burned out cars lay on the streets, woman and men were shouting in the apartments and she heard glass breaking in the distance, she instinctively held on to Robin tighter.
"Who were they?" she asked quietly
Robin scanned the area quickly and looked down at her. "They are sort of the are holes of the school they are all into drugs and stuff, hardcore only though, and they brought weapons to school once .wee call them the black knights"
Marian shuddered a little.
"Come on, I don't want you to be in this neighbourhood longer than a minute" he grinned winking at her before he pulled her along. She didn't like it here, there were groups of men on the streets, who stopped talking and stared as they walked by. She didn't look directly at them.
"Its not so bad at our end, this is quite dangerous .but I didn't want the black knights to start on you" he smiled
"Why would they?"
"Well you're new, your hot, and they like things that are .well .restricted"
Marian nodded and understood. "Oh"
They stopped by an alley and she adjusted her book bag,
"Well that was interesting" she grinned, fixing her hair.
"Yeah, I was wondering when you would meet them, but you don't mess with them alright, anytime they talk to you don't say anything, just ignore them and tell me" he ordered
Marian smiled and nodded.
Robin saw a black car pull down the alley over the road and stop, he didn't think anything of it until he heard a heart stopping bang noise. He didn't even think before he heard Marian scream from fright and lunged for her, throwing himself over her as they hit the ground, his body covering hers, he had perfected the art of ducking in his years here, with the number of drive by's a week a guy had to be prepared. He heart Marian's shaky breath and knelt back over her, quickly running his hands over her to make sure she was okay
"Marian you alright?" he asked worriedly. She sat up, still trying to breathe again and nodded, forcing air back into her lungs, noticing Robin was still on top of her. Face to face.
"Robin .I think that was just a car backfiring" she whispered.
Robin suddenly went a deep crimson colour. He stammered. "Well .I I thought it might have " Marian giggled and leaned up, planting a quick kiss on his cheek.
"I know what you thought .thank you .that was .well " she couldn't even thing of the word, Robin just saved her .well, from a car backfiring? But still he didn't know that! She felt her legs quiver under his as they stared at each other. He smiled and looked at her with his olive eyes, shooting her a cheeky wink before gently climbing to his feet and helping her up.
"Come on, we're gonna be late." he extended his hand to her, which again she took without hesitation. As he lead her to the school
Again she was marched through the metal detectors and her bag was searched in front of her, the large bald security guard pulled out her makeup bag and rather embarrassingly a packet of tampons. She just looked at him with her eyebrow raised.
"You need one honey?" she smirked
The guard laughed and handed her, her bag back. She threw it over her shoulder and went to Robin again for homeroom.
They met up with the gang again and they had a conversation about the act of vandalism on the school last night before the bell went. Again robin escorted her to the P.E block.
"Well .since you don't need my help in there again, and I wont be in your class, Djaq will watch out for you" he smiled
"Thanks" she smiled walking into the changing rooms.
Robin sighed when she vanished and felt a hand on his shoulder.
"Robin and Marian sitting in a tree F-U-C-K-I-N-G!" Allan sang in his ear. Robin punched him hard on the arm but he just laughed, doing a dance in front of him,
"First comes pregnancy, then comes the dole, then comes social services with a warrant in their hand!" he snag out of tune. Robin hit him again and walked into the changing rooms.
Marian pulled out her shorts and top for P.E and put her bag on the floor. She heard giggling and saw a small group of girls walk into the room, one of them, a blonde stared at her. She rolled her tongue inside her lip and made a squelching sound before walking over to her, as if she had something wedged inside of her backside. Marian stared at them and then back at her locker.
"Who are you?" the blonde demanded
Marian just looked at her and chuckled before looking back at her locker, taking out a bobble.
"I was talking to you bitch!" she yelled. Djaq saw and walked over and stood in front of Marian,
"Sarah, piss off and snort coke will you? Your nose looks a little dry" Djaq smirked.
Sarah just made a face and then looked over at Marian
"I saw you yesterday, with Robin, looking all chummy, a word of warning new bitch, stay the hell away from him, he's marked, he's mine" she stated. Her cronies just laughed. Marian shook her head.
"Sarah, why don't you get it through your thick head, he doesn't like you! You are just some street hooker that set her prices too high!" Djaq snapped.
"And you are some little transfer bitch who is gonna get her ass kicked is she don't shut up!" she said moving into her face.
"What you gonna do Sarah? Attack me with your cheap acrylic nails, face it, Robin has never looked twice at you except to pity the drugged up whore you are!" Djaq yelled.
Sarah went to punch her,
"Right! Ladies! Enough!" the teacher shouted. "I cant be assed writing a report so finish this after class alright?" she stated and walked out.
Marian had never seen a teacher act so casually about a potential fight before. She eyed Sarah up, something tells her she could have been pretty, but if what Djaq was saying was true, the drugs had done their damage, her skin was pale and blemished, her lip cracked and white and her eyes were bloodshot. She wore a tiny top that barely contained her breasts and tiny shorts that you could practically see her colane. She looked at Marian
"Watch your back bitch, you aint in Oxford now" she snapped before walking out with her gang. Djaq shook her head and walked over to Marian.
"You okay?"
"Yeah, thanks, is she really on drugs?"
"We think so, but she hasn't admitted it. Robin tried to help her when we found her all spaced out in an alley once, and ever since then she's been obsessed."
Marian wrinkled her forehead and sighed.
"Anyway time to stretch you coming?" he asked.
"Yeah, just let me get changed, I'll meet you"
She was glad when Djaq walked out and left her alone, she hated getting changed in front of people, and now she was lone she could change without them seeing them. Her shorts were changed and she scanned the room before taking off her top and throwing the other over her head. Little did she know someone was sent back to keep an eye on her.
"Right, Djaq and Marian spot each other " the teacher said.
"Oi Sarah " one of the blonde girls whispered.
"What?"
Come here, you gotta hear this "
Sarah smiled and laughed when she was told the recent discovery,
"That is too good ..right, I got a plan" she smiled.
"Marian, you ready yet?" Djaq called as she grabbed her bag, class had gone well and so again she was stalling.
"No sorry, I'll be right out."
"okay, I'll be outside"
Marian smiled and changed her shorts back to her jeans. She scanned the room quickly again before changing her top and grabbing her book bag and fixing her hair.
"Did you get it?" Sarah whispered.
"Yeah ..look.." she showed her the pictures on her camera phone and Sarah burst into hysterics.
"Wait til everyone else finds out!" she giggled.
"Alright Maz?" Allan said as he spotted her at her locker.
"Yeah, where's Robin?" she asked.
"Aww well, he might have said something to the teach about the football?"
"And what would that be?" she smirked.
"Well he was getting a hard time abut being a ball hog, and well he told him that he should .well .forcibly insert the ball into his anus"
Marian blurted out a laugh and smiled, placing her books into her locker.
"You want me to walk you to lunch?"
"Erm Its okay, I wont be a minute, save me a seat?" she grinned
"Sure, see you in a mo"
Marian liked Allan, he was funny and caring, he was like a smaller version of Robin, only not as hot, although he was quite handsome.
She slammed her locker hard and tried to lock it, she thumped her fist into it but it would click. She gasped when another hand smacked it closed. She turned to see a strange boy staring at her. Dressed like a black knight, which frightened her. She tensed her body, wrapping her arms around herself.
"There you go honey" he smiled.
Marian smiled quickly and then went to leave, but she felt a hand on her arm, pushing her gently back into the locker.
"Whoa, what's the rush " he smiled. She didn't like him already, he was Grinch like, a pointy face with greasy black hair hanging along his neckline.
"I gotta go " she said barely above a whisper.
"No you don't, your new aren't you?" he asked
"Yeah"
"I'm Guy Gisbourne .and you are ?"
"Not interested" she replied harshly.
"Fiery and hot ." he leaned din to her face, "I like hot"
"Well go soak your head then" she snapped with gritted teeth. He moved to close, her arm still in his grasp.
"I like you new girl ..we will get along like a gun to a bullet" he licked his lips. Marian tried to move away.
"OI! GET THE HELL AWAY FROM HER!"
Marian let out a breath when she saw Robin sprinting down the corridor, Guy immediately backed off and Marian walked away towards Robin who wrapped his arm around her waist.
"Locksley, I see you got first dibs on her, damn, well when your done do share her" he licked his lips.
"Shut your mouth you piece of shit" Robin ordered, pushing Marian a little behind him.
"Oh, protective are we?" he laughed, "well I can see why, she's a dainty little thing aint she"
Marian felt Robin tense and held his waist tighter.
"Robin .we should go to lunch" she whispered.
Robin looked at her and saw how scared she was. He nodded. "I'll deal with you later" he said teeth gritted into guy's face. He just smiled.
Robin pulled Marian along the corridor, his arm now wrapped around her so tightly she thought she would break, but in a good way.
"Are you alright?" he asked full of concern.
"Yeah yeah I'm fine .thank you." she said with a smile.
"Stay away from him alright, he's bad news."
"how?"
"Well you know the black knights?"
"Yeah"
"He's sort of one of their leaders"
"One of?"
"Oh, you haven't met Vasey yet .that'll be fun .I'll explain later" he smiled.
"Okay .thanks again." she smiled blushing, he loved it when she blushed.
"Anytime fair maiden" he pecked her lightly on the cheek and she giggled.
"How was football?"
"Cancelled cause of the rain so we played indoors"
"Nice" she giggled. He pulled her again into the lunch room.
Lunch was odd to say the least, although the gang were all engrossed in conversation, Marian was aware of people staring at her, laughing even. She felt nervous and uneasy.
" rian .Marian!" She snapped out of her thoughts.
"Huh? Sorry what?" she asked.
"You okay?" Robin asked.
"Yeah why?"
"Well your mashed potatoes are now liquid" Much laughed. Marian looked down and noticed she had been stirring them with her fork, she put it down and stared around her again. Robin looked at the gang who shrugged and then back at Marian.
"Hey .what's up?" he asked placing his hand on her shoulder.
"Nothing ."
"Marian "
"Its just, is it just me or are people staring?" she whispered. The gang looked around.
They noticed that they were being stared at, but they didn't let on.
"No, no one is staring" Will said with his arm around Djaq.
Marian saw Sarah laughing at her, giving her a self satisfied smile, she knew something was up.
"I'll be right back." she said softly getting to her feet.
"Marian?" Robin asked but she was already walking away, he looked at the gang and shrugged.
"Oh shit" Djaq said.
"What babe?" Will asked.
"She's going to speak to Sarah .." she bit her lip.
"Sarah? Why Sarah?"
"Well they were kind of introduced in the changing rooms .in the form of Sarah threatening her." Djaq said.
"What!"
"I handled it .but I don't know what this is about ..just see what happens if she needs us we'll go" Robin didn't want to, he wanted to go now and prevent anything, but he didn't want to baby her.
"Sarah" Marian snapped, standing directly in front of her table, Sarah had three other girls and two boys next to her.
"Well well, look who it is, speak of the devil" Sarah giggled.
"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" Marian snapped.
"Nothing" Sarah feigned innocence. Marian had enough, she slammed her hand on the table and looked dead into her eyes, everyone had quietened down and began slyly looking over at the pair, Robin and the gang in particular.
"Sarah, don't give me your shit, you are seriously mental if you think I don't know something is up." she snapped. Sarah stood up, she had something in her hand.
"Me mental? that's rich coming from you" the table laughed and Marian felt nervous again.
"What the fuck are you talking about?"
"You are calling me mental when you are the one that needs to be locked up ." Sarah threw the paper at her and Marian held it up, examining it, she felt her stomach sink, tears welling behind her eyes. She looked back up at Sarah, "At least I don't use myself as a fucking chopping board, looks like the new girl got some issues .I think I'll start calling you Granola Suicide" She giggled as the gang burst into hysterics.
Marian couldn't speak, she looked around the room to see the same paper on a few of the desks close by. She felt like she was about to die on the spot and she looked at Sarah.
"I told you to back off bitch"
Marian couldn't help the tears that fell, she didn't even remember telling her legs to run, but they did as fast as they would carry her out the door of the lunch room.
Robin ran as soon as he saw Marian move, something wasn't right, he ran to Sarah's table and looked at her.
"What the fuck was that about?" he demanded.
"Nothing, just a little harmless fun baby" she winked. Robin shook his head and walked out, not before picking up the paper though. He waited until he got outside to look at it, and he felt his heart stop. It was Marian, changing, her entire torso bare, but her lower stomach covered in nasty looking white scars, so perfectly cut they were definitely self inflicted. He shook his head and crinkled the paper, throwing it in the bin before tearing out into the street to find Marian.
Marian felt the rain overtake her entire body, and she didn't even care, the cold let her feel like she was actually there, like she was alive. She felt numb, she didn't want anyone to know about that, it was part of her past, but she couldn't erase the scars, but she could hide them, and now everyone knew, everyone would think she was some psychotic freak who needed to be kept away from sharp objects. She looked around her, it was hard to see through the thick blanket of arctic moisture, but she saw trees and she knew that it was better than a street with burning cars any day. She walked towards them and wrapped her arms around herself.
Robin was worried to say the least he had been searching the school grounds for over an hour as had the gang, but she was no where and she couldn't have gotten too far, he was practically right behind her. He sighed and ran his hands through his hair, then something caught his eye, no one else really knew about it, it was kind of his secret place, and in her frantic state, she might have stumbled across it. A small woodland area surrounded by trees on the edge of the school, no one had checked there yet. He decided to give it a try. And then he remembered. He had her number.
He dialled it and held the phone to his ear as the lightening flashed through the sky.
Marian sat herself under a large oak tree, not really sure why, but it was the first place she felt safe in. she felt her phone vibrate in her pocket and decided to see who it was before ignoring them. It flashed Robin's name, and he was the only one she couldn't ignore.
"Hello " she whispered, barely audible.
"Marian! Thank god! Where are you!?" he bellowed, not meaning to scare her, but he was so worried.
"I .I don't know ." she squeaked.
"Look, Marian, don't worry about what happened okay ..look we all have stuff we aren't proud of, but don't worry .Marian speak to me please " he begged.
She could barely hear him through the rain.
Then he saw her, under his favourite oak tree. He hung up the phone and ran over, dropping to his knees. She looked up at him, his beautiful face was soaked and panic stricken, worry filled his sea green eyes, he was shaking.
"Marian ." he spoke softly, as if she was a child just awoken from a nightmare. "Marian, are you alright?" he asked.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ." she said timidly.
"Don't ever say sorry!" he laughed. He was glad to see a small smile pray on her lips. He saw how white her skin had become, and was glad he had grabbed his trackie top before he left.
"Here .you'll catch your death" he said, draping it over her shoulders and zipping it up. Rubbing her arms he looked into her eyes. She was like a kitten, so apprehensive and restrained. She was petrified, but of what he didn't know.
"Do you want to talk about it?" he asked quietly, although wit the rain it was more of a low yell.
She just looked at him. "Do you think I am a freak now?" she asked, he couldn't distinguish between the tears and the rain.
"What?, never! Marian, we all do things when we are unhappy .no one can hold that against you .I mean I heard your mother died and "
"That wasn't just it ." she whispered. Robin had taken a seat in front of her, his hands sitting on her thighs, for reassurance.
"Marian .what was it " he asked. "You don't have to tell me, but if you want to "
"It was a boy." she stated. Robin felt a strange wave of horror rip over him.
"A boyfriend?" he asked
"No he he was .not well." she stated. "He was "
"Marian, its alright ." he whispered, seeing her chest rise and fall with every laboured breath,
"He, was obsessed" she blurted out.
"With you?" he asked, dreading the answer. She nodded.
"At first, it was a small crush ..but then he started, coming around my house, and following me at school .and it all got a bit much, so I told the head .he was told to stay away from me and everything was fine .until I went to a party with my friend .I didn't know he was there .and he .he he drugged my drink, and tried to .tried to " she broke off.
"Shhh .." he stroked the side of her face and smiled weakly. She melted into his hand, allowing her eyes to close for a minute.
"Did he " Robin asked.
"No, I don't remember anything, but I was passed out and my friend Carter came in and got me to the hospital .the stalking went on for months before that .and after that happened, my mother died .it was all too much at one it was like I was watching my life spin out of control and I couldn't do anything to stop it .." she sobbed. Robin had moved a little closer now, her hands enveloped by his giant ones.
"What happened?"
"I I just .when my father found out my mother had died, he was different, he seemed to shut himself off from me, and I felt alone .so I was cutting some food one day, accidentally cut my hand, and for a spilt second I forgot all about the emotional pain and focused on the physical ." she said, looking into his eye, he gave her a sympathetic look and rubbed her hands with his.
"I started doing it all the time .I did It on my wrist once, but someone saw and I couldn't anymore, so I started doing it on my stomach and I lets say I got a little scared when I started passing out ..so I was taken to hospital, ever since then my father has been a bit over protective .that's why we moved here to keep me out of trouble."
Robin was amazed, she had opened up so freely to him, she had been through so much and before this, she had been so happy go lucky. But then again, appearances can be deceiving.
"Why?" was all he could manage, it sounded stupid, but then again he needed to know.
"That's a good question .its like .every time I cut myself, It was sealing another memory, like every cut was a stare, or a grope or a forced kiss, or a missed opportunity in my mothers case .every cut was something I was ashamed of ..it was like I was sinking in mud and It was getting tighter and tighter, so tight I couldn't breathe, and I just wanted ." she sobbed. Robin moved closer, his face a few inches from hers, his hands trying to keep her warm. He had never felt so helpless. But he had to be here for her.
"What do you want?" he asked.
"I wanted someone to pull me out! that's all I needed .just someone who cared enough to reach for me and help me!" she shouted, falling into his chest, he cradled her as she sobbed, he let his hand comb through her sopping hair, he kissed her through it, rocking her gently.
"Let me ." He said.
She sat up, and looked at him, the sudden bright green of his eyes suddenly captured her, she was lost for breath.
"Let you what?" she whispered.
"Let me help you .let me pull you out " he whispered.
Marian sat up, the rain beating off of each of them they could hear it in their heads, the rhythmic rattling of it was somewhat comforting. She felt his hand on her face, his thumb brushing under her eye, wiping away her tears, then her face suddenly felt warm, flushed even. And then, his lips met hers softly, her entire body melted into his, it was the sweetest kiss she ever had, she was surprised he didn't melt in the rain, his lips exploring hers so gently it was as if he was asking permission, the soft pink pillows resting gently on hers, the warmth of them combined with the chill of the rain was mind blowing to say the lest, the way his calloused fingers running over her skin was amazing, so gentle yet rough. She let a soft moan escape her lips as he took over her mouth with his own, taking his time until she let him in further. Then, the rain stopped. She felt him slowly pull away, she could have stayed in that spot forever, with him.
"What was that?" she whispered huskily.
The slightly dazed look over his eyes was unbelievable, so adorable yet manly,
"I pulled you out" he smiled.
Marian grinned and forgot all about the days events, and focused on her and Robin, under the tree, where she was saved.
Well hoped you liked it.
