Chapter 2 of Break away…

Sestina gasped at the sound of the girls pleadings. She sat there in the closet on her knees; with her ear to the door. She was so scared for the poor girl that would receive the whippings that Sestina was suppose to be getting. She herd the other door open and shut.

" Lets get this over with," he said grabbing the crying girl. " Please, please don't hurt me. Not again," the girl begged him. " You seem to be in here regularly," he said lifting her. Sestina started to pound on the door. He looked at the closet door now remembering Sestina. He then threw the girl down and told her to stay there. He opened the door and lifted her up. " You ok?" he asked her. " This is for putting me in here!" she smacked his arm really hard.

He gave a look of shock. No one had hit him like that before and still held an angry face. She then looked to the girl on the floor. The streaming blond hair looked familiar to her. " Marion?" she asked. The girl looked from the floor to the question. " It is you," she said recognizing the green eyes behind the downpour of tears.

" Sestina?" Marion asked with her eyes filled with fear. " Yeah its me," she said running to her side and lifting her. " You know her?" Darien asked her with a surprised look. Marion was very pretty with her flowing blond hair and emerald eyes. This was her third time being whipped. She was a very weak person. He knew that she was very arrogant in some ways. She wasn't anything like Sestina who was very insecure about herself and very strong at the same time. He found the two different and couldn't see them being friends.

" Yeah she is my best friend. Please, please don't whip her," she said looking at Darien sadly. " I have too. I mean Trichina will know if I didn't and I don't need her thinking I have gone soft," he said looking at her not sure how to feel. " You cant, please you just cant hurt her, I wont let you," she said huddling over Marion. " Fine but she needs to go back and she needs to act like she is in pain," he said turning around and hitting his head with his palm.

" Thank you, thank you so much," Marion said in shock. " May I speak with my friend alone." she knew that he was now her master since she was his slave or worker or what ever he preferred; she needed to ask him before she did anything. " Go ahead, I'm going to go wash up any ways," he then walked to the bathroom.

" I'm going to run away, you need to come with me," she said in a fast loud whisper. " But why? What if we are caught? And what about the punishing man?" She asked rather scared. " Forget him, you need to meet me tonight out side in the stables. We cant live here any more. I cant and I cant leave you here, so please crawl out the window tonight. If I don't make it out tonight go to the next town to the east," she said as fast as she could as she held her friends arm. " Do the same for me if I don't come," she said running out the door and pretending that she was in pain.

" I still cant believe your friends," he said walking behind her. She jumped at the sudden presence of Darien. " Did I scare you?" he asked walking closer to her with a laugh. " No you didn't, you just caught me off guard," she said walking away from him. He sighed then turned around. She took a quick peak over her shoulder to notice him topless. She quickly looked away from his tan muscular frame. " What would you like for me to do first? Clean? Cook?" She asked annoyed of him already.

She found him to conceited, he knew he was good looking; but she also thought of him as to rough. He had hurt people for a living which was wrong in her mind. She believed in peace and making people happy. But she was a naive person about life, about how people really were. She smiled at the thought that she wouldn't have to see him again after this.

" Nothing, I wish for you to do nothing," he said pouring him self a glass of wine. " Why do you do this? Hmm?" she asked turning to him. " Do what?" he said confused of her question. " Hurt people. Why do you choose this way? Why are you so different?" she asked in a disgusted way. He put the cup of wine to his lips took a sip then pulled it away. " Because… Because that's what I have to do. Just like you have time to be too smart for your own good," he said toying with her.

He liked messing around with her. He liked how she was easily ticked off. He found this amusing. " I'm smart for my own good. I have to be. So I can survive against people like you and Trichina," she huffed angrily at what he said. " Never put me and Trichina in the same category! I am nothing like her. I only work for her, as you do," he said slamming the cup down. Sestina quickly jumped and shivered but stood her ground. " I don't work for her!" she yelled angrily. " Yes you have! You started the day you came here!" he yelled with the same aggressive tone she gave him. " Have not!" she yelled angrily.

He noticed how childish she was. He didn't mind it though since he was only four years older then her. He could see the steam radiate off of her. He thought she looked cute like that. She just turned around and crossed her arms.

" Don't fool your self. In a way you have worked for her. You worked so you have a roof over your head as do I. You work for food, and so that at night you don't have to shiver out in the cold," he said calming down. " Don't tell me what I do! You are more of an idiot then I thought! Having a roof over your head is the same as working so you don't have to shiver in the night! Duh!" she yelled angrily as she flipped her dark brown hair and sat down not looking into his more then angry eyes.

" I went through a lot to protect you! And this is how you repay me! Yelling at me and calling me a idiot! Be more wiser Sestina because I know you are more wiser then you are acting right now," he said standing up. " Are you threatening me!?!?" she turned to look at him with hatred in her eyes. " No I'm giving you advice!" he said walking towards her.

She was now very shaky, she was afraid of what he might do to her. She had yelled at him and he was angry, he was taller and stronger then her; she was afraid of what his power could do to her. He stopped in front of her and lifted her to her feet. She was so scared that he might whip her for her dis respect to her master.

" I'm not going to hurt you," he said holding the struggling girl. She was pretty strong for some one of her size. She looked like she was not very well fed and she was about 5'5" a regular size for a girl like her. She just pulled away from him and looked away from his gaze. He sighed again knowing she was going to be tougher then she looked.

" Just leave me alone and tell me what to do," she wanted to cry. She would have been better off back up stairs with every one else. " I want you to eat, that's what I want," he said handing her a plate full of all kinds of food. She looked at it but she was so angry she didn't want to eat. She knew she might need it so she took a apple. She ate it slowly and sat there still angry. He watched her the whole time hoping for even a quick glance. She wouldn't even bring her eyes to any thing in his direction.

" Why don't you like me?" he asked with a nice tone. She was the hardest he ever worked to make some one happy. He wanted her to like him even as just a friend. " I don't know," she said not sure how to answer it. She really didn't have a reason to not like him. He showed her nothing but kindness and all she did was reject him. She started to feel bad for what she had said. For if it wasn't for him she would be crying in her bed and wincing in pain; instead of being here while he watched over her protectively.

You light her cigarette, your feeling pretty good, you think you got a shot, most girls you probably would. This is that kind of place but she isn't that kind of girl. Your reading it all wrong, let me tell you about her…

(chorus:

she only smokes when she drinks, she only drinks now and then, and now and then when she is tired of being let down by men, you can give her a light but its not what you think… every one knows she only drinks alone and she only smokes when she drinks. )

Did you ask her to dance? let me guess she told you no, got to take her some were quiet, and see how far that goes, oh don't take it all that hard when she smiles and turns you down, for a complicated girl she aint that hard to figure out.

(chorus) repeat ones

He knew what she was feeling right now and walked over to her. She didn't notice it but he lifted her up from the floor and gave her a chair. " I'm going to go for a second," he said putting some of her hair behind her ear. She looked up into his green eyes and then looked away and backed off. " Why?" she asked looking uncomfortably at the floor. " Because I need to go get something. All I ask is that you make the bed that's it," he said still looking down at her. He was about 6'2" and taller then her by far. She looked up to him and gulp then walked away angry with him that he put her on the spot like that. He sighed getting tired of the fact he could never win with her. For the first time he didn't win a argument.

She was sweeping the extremely dusty floor now. She couldn't stand how dirty it made her dress when she sat on the floor. She was humming a little as she swept to the rhythm. He snuck in quietly and put his arms around her then kissed her. She just gasped then pushed him off her.

" What the hell!?!?" she yelled as she slapped him. " I'm sorry," he said really feeling sorry as he rubbed his cheek. " You should be! How dare you," she said furiously. " I like you jeesh sorry," he said still rubbing were she slapped him. " No you don't, may I be excused," said heatedly. " No were going to talk," he said trying not to pressure her.

It didn't help much since she was very stressed. He grabbed her shoulder to stop her pacing. " If you want to talk lets talk but don't touch me," she walked away from his strong grip. " Why cant I touch you?" he asked bluntly. " Because, just because I am your slave, doesn't mean I will let you touch me. I don't know who would let you touch them," she said feeling bad about her rude comment to him.

" I know people who would gladly take your place," he said bluntly once more. She just turned and looked at him. She looked at his features; he was indeed a hansom man. He was tall and well built, with light sandy brown hair and green eyes. If it wasn't for the way he acted, and in stead if he would have been prince charming and swept her off her feet; he would have been her dream guy.

" I know your afraid of me," he said walking behind her. " I'm not afraid of you," she said softly hoping he would go away. " Then what are you afraid of?" he asked her coming from behind and trying to grab her.
