Maybe This Won't Be So Bad (River)

(I was bored so i made them a thread. It can either be in his room, or in the hallway, but he had no board so I put it here.)

After being sold to River, she'd been taken directly back to the Nýchta clan home, her new home. A part of her, a part deep down was glad that it had been river who bought her. She wasn't sure how she felt 'belonging' to someone exactly, but she knew one thing was for sure. River was much better then the Woman. He was a lot nicer too. That other girl who seemed to have wanted her, well it was obvious that she hated Scarlett and Scarlett had a feeling it was just because of the fact she was a Human. Pretty retard reason, but whatever. One thing was for sure she wasn't going to go ANYWHERE without him by her, at least for now. She was going to avoid enyo as best she could.

It didn't really hurt that River was extremely cute either and of course she'd never say it, but ever since he'd done it, Scarlett couldn't get that kiss out of her mind. It's really all she thought about constantly for the past few weeks. It was pretty ironic though considering the fact that she pretty much had told him off for doing it. His lips had been so soft...soft and addicting. A part of her wanted to happen again and very soon at that, but she wasn't going to say anything. No, there's no way she'd want him to know that she had enjoyed every second of it of it last time. Scarlett shook her head. "Stop thinking about it, think about something else" she told herself. It was hard though. Even though he'd done because she didn't tell him what flavor lollypop she had, you can't very well easily forget such a wonderful kiss like that. She would try though.

It was a given that she was going to miss her brothers, mostly the brother who was closer to her age. She loved her oldest brother too, but he was way too strict. Plus, they fought way too much. Then there was the fact she no longer had to work. Okay, so she belonged to someone now and that probably wasn't her first choice, but she preferred to belong to River than having to work one more day at that bookstore. She loved reading, but hated working in the bookstore. Of course that was just River. If it had been anyone else, she'd probably make a bigger deal out of it. A part of her was also kind of glad to get out of that house, the house her parents died in. She had loved it when she was a child, but now it had a lot of bad memories.

After the rather heated bidding war with Enyo, he was rather excited to go home to be with his prize. He had been trying to convince Scarlett to be his for a while, then he stopped seeing her around the bookstore. He still hung around, hoping to catch a glimpse of the girl. So when Harrow called him to demand he came to the Boar's Head, he honestly expected it to be for some ditsy bimbo. Once Scarlett was brought out, he knew he was going to have her. He pushed open the door to his room and smiled at her. Harrow's men must have brought her there after the bidding war. He ran his hands through his sandy blonde hair and smiled at her.

"Not pissed at me for buying you, are you?" He walked into his room and smiled at her. He was a better master than Enyo would have been. Enyo would have abused Scarlett, taken away that fire that he loved so much about her. She was a spirited girl and he liked that about her. Plus, her lips. Damn, her wonderful lips. The day he got up the nerve to kiss her, it was the best thing he ever did. Plus, her lips tasted like cotton candy, and he loved it so much.

Scarlett shrugged. She really wasn't. She thought she would be at first. She thought she'd be angry with whoever it was that bought her, but decided she wasn't at least not at him. Had it been anyone else, then yeah she probably would have been angry. "The way I look at it, You're better than the woman, especially considering the fact I know she can't stand me." she stated with a nod. She remembered when Enyo had pulled her hair. It hadn't scared Scarlett. Scarlett wasn't that easily scared. In fact she'd just rolled her eyes and walked away, but she knew from just that that for whatever reason Enyo hated her. "I'm also pretty sure that she's not too happy with me either at the moment. I got pretty sarcastic with her. Oh and I rolled my eyes at her" Scarlett said with a nod. "She didn't like that very much." she continued, holding in a giggle. Yes, scarlett found that funny.

Then there was also the fact she sorta had gotten used to River, him being around her that is. At first yeah she'd been pretty mean and bitchy towards him, but eventually it stopped. She had decided though that she could stop being as mean to him for no reason at all. A part of her enjoyed his company though too. That was of course another thing she wasn't going to be admitting to anytime soon. Yes, those things she would keep to herself.

River was actually pretty tired after the crazy day he had, Storm and Rayne got into a bunch of trouble with Jude Rockwell and he had to bail them out before Damian found out. For the coven's leader, he was pretty oblivious to what was going on. He laid down on his bed next to her and leaned back on his soft pillows. His bed was pretty big, and he had every intention of making her sleep there with him. He wanted to hold her while he slept, he had been thinking about that for a while and he wanted to fulfill it. "Well until Enyo calms down, just stay with me. I don't want her hurting you." He reached out and took her hand softly, lacing his fingers with hers. "I don't know what I would do if she did." He cared deeply about her, and hopefully with time she would feel the same way. Ever since he saw her at the bookstore, it was torture to be away from her. "This is our room, bathroom is right through there, I can get a dresser brought in for your things but it might take a few hours to find one."

Yeah, they would be sharing a bed. He wanted to hold her close, and then if his scent was on her, other vampires would leave her alone. River was a pretty fierce fighter so a good percent of the vampires there didn't want to mess with him.

Scarlett nodded. "I'll be glad to avoid her" she said nodding. "I actually found her pretty annoying to be honest just because like every little thing set her off. I mean I wouldn't be surprised if it's just because I'm human" she said, with a shrug. It really was pretty stupid. Scarlett hadn't even said anything and she'd been signaled out. Of course things got worse when Scarlett's big mouth DID end up entering the conversation, but before hand? She wasn't sure what exactly it was that had set Enyo off completely. Scarlett didn't stop him when he laced their fingers together, but she softly bit her bottom lip. She knew she probably should pull away because he might wonder why she's being so nice, but she didn't want to.

Scarlett turned a little pink at the next thing he said. Well, it was a good thing her brothers weren't here. They would throw a fit if she was sharing a bed with a guy, even if nothing happened. That wouldn't really matter. They were so over protective of her. Too over protective of her at times actually. Of course River was a vampire so it's not like some humans could harm a vampire, but still. Scarlett, well, she found that it didn't really matter all that much to her. She nodded again, listening as he spoke.

River laughed a little when Scarlett said that almost everything set off Enyo, well, yeah that was pretty much true. She was a high strung bitch, but then again, most vampires are. River knew that Scarlett wouldn't warm up to him at first, he in fact thought that it was going to take some time after the infamous 'cotton candy incident' but he knew that it would be worth it. That there was no doubt in his mind that she was worth it. Normally, he would question her, ask her why she was being so nice. But he wasn't about to question a good thing and get her angry. "So yes, we will be sharing a bed." He tried to keep the happiness out of his voice when he said this, but it was something he had been looking forward to for a while. She really couldn't blame him for it!

"Are you tired, or hungry? I'm not exactly sure what kind of conditions Quigg kept you in." None of the vampires really knew. Most of them, like River, who felt a human connection with their purchase, preferred not to know what he did to them. For the safety of the salesmen and everything.

She turned her head a way for a second because it continued to get pinker and pinker by the second as he continued to speak. Scarlett wasn't used to any of that. That was the last thing she wanted him to see, her all pink like that. She just nodded, not speaking, trying to calm herself down a little bit before she turned back to him again when she knew it was all gone.

Scarlett nodded at his question if she was hungry or tired. It was after that she finally spoke, to answer his question. "I'm a bit tired yeah, but not because of any of the conditions or anything like that. They were pretty decent. I haven't really slept well in awhile. It all started when my parents died. I started having nightmares after that, even though I don't even know how exactly they died." she said with a shrug. It wasn't like vampire's killed them or anything, at least as far as Scarlett knew. It was possible, but she didn't know so she couldn't be having nightmares because of that particular thing because she didn't know what happened. She wasn't sure WHAT had triggered the nightmares.
