Marlisa was wearing a lilac dress that cut off four inches above her knee, her black stocking were an inch shorter then the small dress. She was by the riverside, by herself at first. That was the reason why she decided to take her stockings off and go walking through the water. There was no one in sight, no reason to feel ashamed about slipping out of her stocking and dipping her legs into the cool water. At first she felt cold, but she got used to the water, also she felt two hands genitally grab onto her waist.

The female closed her eyes and leaned her head back. The hands began to roam around her body. They moved up from her waist to her breast. It was then when she felt the male press his lips to her neck. She let out a soft moan as he continues to grope her breast with one hand and moved the other down to the bottom of her skirt. She bit her bottom lip as the male pulled up her skirt and slipped his hand into her panties.

"Marlisa..." The female smiled, until it seemed as though someone was shaking her. It was then when the young woman opened her eyes and realized she was in her room be woken up by her older brother. She shuddered at the thought of him being the male from her dream, though that was unlikely. "You seemed scared.. Did you have a bad dream." The female looked up to her brother and shook her head.

"It was just odd..." She mumbled quietly, her older brother gave her a concerned look, she could tell he wanted her to elaborate. "I was by the river... I took off my stockings then a male came up behind me and he moved his hands across my body... He kissed my neck softly then..." The female stopped and looked to her upper legs.

"I'm not comfortable with you having dreams like that about boys... Who was he? Merdardus Adalward? I can tell you fancy him." The young female glared at her older brother. "It was him wasn't it?"

"I wouldn't know...I never saw his face..." The female sighed as her brother got off the bed.

"Ger up, get dressed and go to school, Mother wont be home until next week so I'm in charge until then. I want you back before sundown, do you understand?" The brunette nodded and closed the door the got changed for school.

Marlisa walked out of her house silently. She didn't want to be bothered by her brother anymore. As the female walked down the road she sighed realizing she would be getting to school very early. She couldn't help but hope she would run into Merdardus or that Melchior, both would undoubtedly brighten up her day.

"Marli!" She heard a familiar voice shout, she turned around and saw just the man she wanted to see, the he looked exhausted. Marlisa threw her arms around him, he genitally wrapped his arms around her waist. "I'm so glad to see you're alright... I honestly felt that you were harmed in some way."

"Is that why you look so tired?" She asked while walking beside him, the blonde haired male quickly shook his head.

"No I wish it was...I had a dream last night... Well it was more like a nightmare..." The male shuddered and Marlisa quirked her brow. "I was in school and a girl... She walked to the front of the classroom and pulled off her stocking... And her legs, those legs Marlisa I don't think you would ever be able to understand me having a dream of this nature. I was so frightened... I'd never felt this way before and when I woke up... That was the most frightening part, I had this" He stopped himself from talking. "I'm sorry Marlisa...I doubt you understand any of this any more then I do." A small grin spread across the females lips.

"You underestimate me Merdus, I understand very well what happened to you." The female giggled a little. "It happens to all men, and I'm assuming it isn't your first time you had dreams like this. Am I correct?" He nodded at her shyly, a light shade of pink beginning to show on his cheeks. The brunette sighed and leaned closer to him, "I've had dreams of this sort too Merdus, I can assure you that it's nothing to be ashamed. Of course my dreams aren't haunted with stocking less legs."

"What are your dreams like..." He asked. Marlisa quirked her head too the side and looked over to the school in front of her.

"I'll tell you everything..." She said while leaning in closer to him he took a small step back, but the female gripped his arm and pulled him towards her. "Just ditch at lunch and meet me by the river."

"But" The blonde boy began.

"But what? We might get into big trouble with the school?" The boy nodded and she scoffed. "I don't care about any of that today, neither should you. Merdardus... It's been so long since me and you have been together...Alone. We haven't been able to really talk." The female looked up at him, hoping this sort of despite look would work. For a minute she saw his expression soften.

"Marlisa...We can't just leave in the middle of the day, think what will happen to the both of us. What reason do you have for doing this anyway?" He asked while taking his hand back from her.

"Because I can, that's why. And also because we are instructed not to. Merdus, they're attempting to shelter us from all these things that shouldn't be hidden from us. All these things we as human deserve to know and experience as soon as we feel we're ready. Yet they all hide it from us, they don't allow us to experience life the way we want to. If all these people believe in God and that he gives us the ability to make our own decisions...Then why don't they actually let us make our own decisions..."

"I suppose this is just something we need to accept. It's impossible for one person to make a big change...So just stop trying for now and accept the way society wants you." after saying that he walked away from the girl.

Marlisa was upset with what her friend had just said to her, was she not clear enough... Did he not desire the same thing as her? It did seem like it. Thinking more on this, Marlisa decided not to go into school. Instead she turned around and walked back into town. She would have to stay away from the clean cut area in town. If anyone who knew her mother saw her they would take her straight to the principal or even worse... They may take her to her brother.

She rushed into the other side of town and sighed a little. What did people find all that nerve wrecking about this place. It was basically the same. The female looked to the floor and continues walking.

"Marlisa?" The girl jumped at the mention of her name, she looked over and saw Melchior. She quickly ran over to him "Marlisa what exactly" The female cut him off by covering his mouth with her hand.

"I don't want to go to school Melchior." She lowered her hand. "Tell me, do you live here?" The girl asked tilting her head a little bit. He nodded at her.

"Just three blocks from here I was buying food for breakfast." He lifted up his paper bag full of groceries.

"Take me there; I would like to see it. Also I need a place to hide out until classes are finished." The older male paused for a moment. He wasn't all that keen on letting a stranger into his home, but then she glanced up at him from underneath her eyelashes. He couldn't help but think of Wendla for a quick moment.

"Ok, I'll take you." The male agreed and she smiled. This again reminded him of Wendla, though he knew this new girl was nothing like her.

"Thank you."
