Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
We arrived very very later that night at my place. The girl had fallen asleep during one of our breaks in walking so I carried her the rest of the way. I was irritated. I'd have to give up my bed tonight.
I set her on my bed and left to find another. I needed one now. I'd needed it put together by the next day. So I bought the bed and worked all night on putting it together. And I fell asleep over the half-completed bed. Darn woman. My life was going to be very complicated from here on out.

Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
I woke up feeling somewhat better but my head was still pounding. I sat up and saw the assassin asleep on a half finished bed. There wasn't a lot left to do so I got to work while he was sleeping. He was going to underestimate what I could do on my own.
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
I woke up in pain. I'd slept in an awkward position on the frame of that bed. There wasn't even padding on it. I woke up on the floor though. I felt like crap. I sat up and rubbed my eyes and yawned. "Ugh..."
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
"Good morning." I said, finishing up some of the last details on the bed, "I'm sorry about last night... I could have slept on the floor." I added the pillow and smiled warmly, "You can sleep on it now..."
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
I looked up at her and sighed. "I don't want to listen to you complaining about sore joints." I struggled to my feet. I was usually sore after a target... but this was ridiculous. I walked stiffly into the kitchen and started breakfast. I was starving.
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
"Why do you keep judging me? I have a terrible cold and I'm not complaining am I? You are the one complaining." I put my hands on my sore hips, yes they were sore but not from walking, "I'm not trying to make your life bad, you aren't the one who has seven months to live."
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
I frowned. I wake up and immediately am fussed at. Maybe if I ignored her, she'd disappear. I waited for a few minutes, but I could feel her staring holes in me. "You're doing a wonderful job of convincing me I should spare your life." I said, slightly frustrated. I put eggs and meat on a plate and set it in front of her. "Eat."
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
I nodded slowly and ate in silence and then looked at him, "You're welcome..." I glanced back towards the room where the bed was. I finished it... and it looked cozy.
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
It was like she just knew how to grate on my nerves and make me angry, I sighed heavily and set my plate aside. I did not want to be around her right now, because if I stayed, I might kill her. "I'm going to town. Is there anything you need?"
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
"No... I think I'll be fine, thank you." I didn't want to make him angrier so I decided to forego the tea that helped my cold and... morning sickness. I finished eating and thanked him politely for the food.
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
I sighed. "You're welcome." I said softly. "Don't try to leave, please. I have a headache and I don't want to chase you all around the kingdom... but you can sit on the porch. There are some rocking chairs." I said before walking out of the house. I needed to cool down. I was upset and I needed to be... not so upset. I rubbed my head in frustration. I really wanted to scream. This was supposed to be a really simple job, but it was turning out to be the fright of my life. I wanted to just... run away. I glanced at a booth full of different teas and frowned. She was drinking tea when I kidnapped her.
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
After he was gone I went, slowly and painfully to the new bed and laid down on my back and put the pillow over my face and began to cry softly. No tea, no home, no guarantee that I'd be able to raise my little baby.
How was this fair? How was it fair that someone could take a life like that?

Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
I sat down on a bench and dropped the bag of groceries beside me. What was I thinking? Would I really be able to kill her after seven months? After I saw her baby? I rubbed my eyes and sighed. I knew I wouldn't be killing her, no matter how much I didn't like her. I couldn't do that to her child. But then... what was I supposed to do when the baby was born? I could be killed for not killing her. I should have listened when I was advised not to take a contract from the king.
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
It was taking him a while to get back so I went through the food and decided to make him a warm lunch. I owed it to him for giving me the time I had left. It smelled delicious and it was even making me hungry! <3 I hoped he'd like it!
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
I sat there for while longer before sighing and standing up on my aching legs. I grabbed the bag and walked back to the house, picking up a few more blankets along the way. They days were getting colder, so the houses were too. I struggled up the stairs and wiped at the tears formed from the pain of the stairs. I needed a ramp instead. I opened the door and immediately smelled food. Was she cooking....? >.>
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
"Oh! You're back, I made you something... I hope you'll like it, my grandmother taught me this a few years ago." I made him a plate and then sat down, wincing at the pain I had in my hips and back. "If you want I can leave you with the recipe!"
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
She was trying really hard now. I held back the smile that was trying to come. I didn't want her to see me smile yet. I wasn't sure why, but I wanted her to work harder for that. I set the bag down on the counter and pushed it toward her. "I'm tired of your coughing... and thanks for the lunch. It smells good."
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
I looked at the bag and what was inside and then smiled, "Thank you so much... I really appreciate this." I pushed the plate towards him and went to make some tea. Just the smell was making me feel so much better! <3 I wished I could have hugged him.
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
"I didn't know what flavor you liked so I got them all." I said and stared at the lunch. I wasn't sure what it was. I'd never eaten it before. I tasted it though, and... it tasted pretty good. I ate it quietly though. I was still trying to think about how I was going to go about not killing her.
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
"Aw, that's... so sweet! Do you like it?" I asked him as I sat down with warm tea. I wasn't hungry but I would be eventually. >_O
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
"Yes, it's good." I said, nodding some. "I like it." I glanced at her and noticed she was looking at me...expectantly? What did she want? I stared back at her with a mouthful of food. I wasn't exactly sure what to do.
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
I was staring by accident but not directly, I was deciding if I was feeling nauseous or not but I couldn't really tell. "Glad you like it." I finally snapped out of it and smiled warmly, "Um... I like to cook."
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
I swallowed and nodded a little bit. "Uhuh... I can see that." I said softly. "Is the tea good?" I asked with a frown. Sometimes... I didn't realize I was frowning... like at that moment. I didn't realize.
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
"Yeah, it's good... are you okay?" I was silly for asking, he was probably wishing he could have killed me by now but I didn't want to judge him so I pushed the thought away.
Re: Once Upon A Kidnapping
"Hmm?" I didn't know why it mattered to her whether I was okay or not. "Ah, yeah. I'm just thinking about some stuff." If I told her I wasn't going to kill her, I was afraid she'd just leave and get herself seen and me killed... or just get all lazy and rude because I told her I wouldn't kill her. I sighed heavily and got up to grab some beer from the cabinet. I really needed some.
