A/N: and here is chapter 2 ppl please read and review :D

Sarah was unusually quiet during the walk to Thackery's house within the village, as she was continually lamenting over the hole in her dress. Thackery noticed her quietness and fearing that she was still frightened over the wolf, placed an arm companionably over her shoulders. Upon feeling this Sarah looked up at Thackery shock plain on her face, but Thackery just smiled at her, easing her worry. She was trying to act like all the other women in the village, hoping that that would gain her access to Thackery easier rather than acting as her usual bubbly and silly self. Sarah was no fool she knew that she was seen as a stupid tart but she was determined to make Thackery her's no matter the cost.

Thackery on the other hand was enjoying the silence and was thinking about just how lucky he was to be in this lovely creature's presence. Contrary to popular belief Thackery had no problem with Sarah Sanderson, but he did not want to be just another name on a rather long list of her conquests. Did this mean he was interested in her of course what red blooded male would not be she was stunningly beautiful and happy all the time and sometimes while working in the fields he could hear her singing as she went about her daily routine. She was magnificent and Thackery wished to know more about her.

"So you live in the woods, art thou not afraid from being so far from the village?" asked Thackery casually as he glanced at Sarah from the corner of his eye.

"No," she replied as she looked at him, "I feel as safe there as thou would feel in the village. I do not live alone, I have my sisters and that is all I need to be happy."

Thackey felt himself nodding along with what Sarah was saying, he understood why she would feel so at home away from the whispers of the village, safe in her own little world. Just as Thackery was finishing that thought he felt a drop of rain on his forehead, quickly glancing towards the sky Thackery saw thunder clouds gathering high over head and the clouds dark with rain. Thackery quickly grabbed Sarah's uninjured arm and dragged her along as he ran for his house, but because of how far away they were from the village Sarah and Thackery were drenched with rain by the time they reached the village. Unexpectedly Thackery heard Sarah begin to laugh as they ran for the village, he turned at the enchanting sound and saw a wide smile upon her face, she was truly amazing taking pleasure at something so simple as being caught in the rain. Thackery knew for a fact had it been any other woman there would be screaming and complaining, but not her oh no Sarah was special and he was sorely tempted to find out more.

Finally Sarah and Thackery made it to the village and quickly ran inside of Thackery's house, closing the door roughly behind them. Sarah leaned against the closed door and it was then that Thackery noticed the rain dribbling down her body, he willed a certain part of his anatomy not to respond to this sight as he noticed little drops of water disappearing into her cleavage. Thackery quickly turned away but not before Sarah noticed him staring at her. Smiling to herself she moved away from the door and walked seductively over to Thackery her hips swaying from side to side as she walked. Thackery noticed this and didn't move as Sarah whispered "I never properly thanked thee for rescuing me."

"Twas nothing." Thackery replied as he unconsciously leaned into Sarah, and placed a hand on her arm.

"Never the less I wish to thank thee properly." Sarah said as she leaned in, puckered her lips and closed her eyes, Thackery held his breath as he felt Sarah place a soft gentle kiss upon his cheek. His eyes widened at this, from what he had heard about this woman she didn't play coy and was the first to jump into bed with a man when given an opportunity and given his current state Thackery wasn't sure that he would say no.

When she pulled back Thackery took her cloak and hung it up just inside the door, leaving it to drip upon the floor Thackery gently took Sarah's arm and led her into the house. She gingerly sat upon a chair while Thackery disappeared into another room. Sarah could hear banging and clanging and a short time later Thackery reappeared with a sewing needle and thread and two strips of white cloth. Thackery sat down across from Sarah and took her elbow in his hand gently and set about cleaning the gash in her arm, Sarah wincing as he brushed bits of leaves and bark out of it. Once the wound was clean and wrapped in cloth did Thackery hand Sarah the needle and thread. Sarah set about removing the dress when Thackery gasped "What art thou doing?"

Smiling at him sweetly Sarah simply said "I cannot repair the dress while I am wearing it now can I."

Having no answer to respond with Thackery merely turned away as Sarah stripped down to her underwear and started sewing the dress' arm back together. Unfortunately for Thackery and Sarah, Thackery's parents and little sister, Emily, chose that time to enter the house.

They all stared stunned at eachother until Thackery's mother screamed at Sarah "Get out of this house, harlot!"

Sarah quickly pulled on her dress and ran to the door and out into the rain. Thackery was the first of his family to react to his mother's screeching "What art thou doing mother I invited her in."

"Did you also invite her to take off her clothes?" Thackery's father asked his tone of voice furious. "thou know all about that whore Thackery what would possess thee to bring her into thine home."

"I saved her from a wolf and she needed to fix her dress. I brought her back here to do so." Thackery said, annoyed with his parents, and marched to the door grabbing Sarah's cloak in his hand as he did so.

He ran following the purple shape that was heading towards the woods. He saw her disappear from his sight as she entered the woods. "Sarah!" Thackery screamed as he ran towards the woods. Just as he entered the woods however Thackery was stunned to see Sarah huddled on the ground tears pouring down her face, and sobs racking her thin form. Thackery hurried over to her and flung his arms around her. Sarah sobbed and buried her face in Thackery's chest and Thackery gently stroked her long blonde hair. Strange feelings encompassed Thackery's body at the sensation of having her so very close and Thackery then proceeded to shift Sarah so that he could lift her off the ground carrying her to her home in the woods. Once there Thackery set Sarah down on her feet and walked with her to the door. Winifred and Mary were upon them the moment they heard Sarah's footsteps upon the wood. Mary immediately grabbed Sarah into a hug as soon as she saw her and babbled on about how worried they were when she heard her scream. Thackery briefly wondered how Mary could have heard Sarah scream from so far away but decided to let it go once he saw Winifred's eyes upon him. She was making him uncomfortable with her staring and Thackery shuffled his feet nervously, but the contact was broken by Sarah flinging her arms around her older sister's neck. Winifred stopped staring at Thackery long enough to hug her youngest sister before opening her mouth to speak "It seems we art in thy debt young man."

"Twas nothing," Thackery answered, "I only did what anyone would have done."

"Twas not nothing Thackery," Sarah insisted as she hugged him, burying her face his chest once again "he fought off a wolf." she told her sisters who looked at each other briefly before turning their attention back to Thackery.

"Then thou art a hero, young Thackery Binx." said Winifred slowly before adding "art thou courting our sister then?"

Thackery spluttered before looking down at Sarah who had turned her gaze to the ground and a blush had settled on her face. Thackery didn't know how to respond to that on the one hand Sarah was forbidden to all men as the village had labelled her a harlot, it would shame his family if he were to say yes but Sarah was just so so he didn't know what but he knew that he wanted to find out.

"Yes," he answered "if she'll have me."

"Oh, Thackery!" Sarah exclaimed as she flung herself bodily against him, "of course I will but what about thy parents?"

"It does not matter Sarah." Thackery said softly as he stroked her cheek.

Sarah looked up at him blue eyes wide with joy and a radiant smile upon her face. She leaned in and kissed his cheek once again before flushing slightly and turning to enter the house, she paused just before the doorway and asked "When will I see thee again?"

"Tomorrow." Thackery promised as he turned to leave.

"Tomorrow." Sarah sighed happily as she turned to enter the house.
