Isabelle, Robbie and Thomas finally went downstairs to the dining room and saw someone else with Hoyt and Luda Mae.
"Hello, girl. This is my brother, Monty." she said, pointing to the man in the wheelchair. The girls said hi and they both sat down next to Thomas. After the family prayed (with the girls heads down respectively) , they started to eat.
"So, whats your names?" Hoyt asked, getting the girls attention.
"I'm Isabelle." Isabelle said, then pointing a finger to her friend, "This here is Robbie."
Robbie nodded and then Luda Mae spoke up.
"So, do you girls work?"
"We did." Robbie said, "But we had to quit due to certain...circumstances."
"Where did you work?" Luda Mae asked, making the girls looked at each other and smiled.
"Carnival performers." they said at the same time, grinning widely.
"Oh?" Luda Mae said, frowning a bit, "What were you..."
"I was a sword-swallower." Isabelle said with a grin, "I had to use small swords though."
"I was a human candlebra." Robbie piped up.
"The hell is that?" Hoyt snarled.
Robbie smiled and reached into her pocket, taking out two long needles and she suddenly impaled her arm with them. She then showed the group, everyone , but Isabelle, cringing.
"I usually have wax on them." she said as she took the out, "Make them light up as candles."
"Buncha freaks." Hoyt muttered under his breath, making the girls smirk at him.
"Thanks you." they said, laughing loudly at Hoyts annoyed expression. Luda Mae however was focused on Thomas, who looked at the girls with interest.
The girls then started to tell Thomas about their lives in the carnival and Luda Mae knew these girls had to stay.
After dinner, the girls offered to do the dishes, but Luda Mae said no, since they are her guests.
"Would you like some tea?" she said, making the girls nod as she poured them some tea. They started a conversation with Luda Mae, telling her about the places they visited while they were with the carnival. As Isabelle drank from her tea, she noticed that it tasted a little funny and she felt a lightheaded. She was about to tell Robbie how she felt, but she saw her friend sway in her seat and then lean back in the chair, falling asleep. She looked at Luda Mae in horror when it sunk in.
"She drugged us!" she screamed in her head, "The old lady drugg-"
her thought went unfinished as she slumped forward in her seat, her world turning black.
Hoyt looked at the unconscious girls with a leeringly smile.
"Well, good thing they're under now." he said, "Tommy, you take the half-pint. I'll take the blonde."
When he reached for Robbie, Thomas growled and pushed him away. He growled as he picked Robbie with one arm and slung Isabelle over his shoulder.
"Aw, hell no, Thomas! You cant have both girls!" Hoyt sneered, but Luda Maw smacked him upside the head.
"Be quiet, Charlie! If Tommy wants them both, let him. Those girls would do him so good."
As the two elder Hewiits argued, Thomas took the unconscious girls upstairs, hoping that they will fit in with his lifestyle.
AN: Here is an update finally! Sorry, school work and my TCM fandom is dying a little. But don't worry, I will update this.
So, here the girls are at the dinner table, telling about their occupations and as you can see, Hoyt doesn't really like them. But Luda Mae does. So, she drugs them to get them to stay and lets Thomas "have" both of them, to Hoyts chagrin.
Anyway, enjoy and comments are loved! I don't own TCM, just the girls!
