Alexandra Mar & Gabriel Night's Residence

[Firefly_Wanderer]

"It was nothing. Mrs. Amy simple startled me that's all. How do you feel this morning?" Sabre asked trying not to think of the ways the cook would've killed him. It had been a long night, now all he could do is hope that Alex had slept well. That would make it all worth it.

“Fine,” Alex said, stifling a yawn. “Did you get an sleep?” She asked, and then something on Sabre’s left wrist caught her attention. She frowned, taking his wrist and pulling it close, getting at better look at it. “What is this…?” Alex asked, knowing full and well what it was. She just couldn’t imagine Sabre doing this. Had he even done it to himself? If he did what pushed him to it?  

[Firefly_Wanderer]

Sabre started to respond until he felt Alex grab his wrist. Oh yeah he forgot to tell her about that. Well not really tell her more like make absolutely certain she never saw them was more like it. With a sigh he looked at her guess he couldn't get around it. "Please Mistress, don't worry. It's not what it looks like." Sabre started lamly. He really didn't know how to explain them. Talking about them meant he had to talk about him. That was a road he wasn't certain he was ready to go down.

Alex began to open her mouth and then stopped, shutting it. She just nodded, letting go of Sabre’s wrist. Alex was curious and worried all at the same time but, if Sabre didn’t want to say anything then she would let it drop. But the thought of Sabre dead? Buried in the ground? Cold and more alone than he was alive? It down right scared her. “Okay,” Alex said, looking down at the bedding. “Just tell me if you’re unhappy with anything, okay?”  

[Firefly_Wanderer]

Another sigh left him. Alex had the right to know, after all she was his new master she should know. Reaching out he tucked another piece of Alex's hair behind her ear. "It's not that I'm unhappy, Mistress. These....these are mementos from my last master." Sabre answered after a moment looking down at his scares, rubbing them slightly. Sometimes it felt like they were brand new, others like they were nothing but pain. He fingured he'd be used to them by now but it still bothered him to see them.

Alex leaned into Sabre’s touch as he tucked a lock of her hair behind an ear. She nodded and asked, “What… Happened?” Looking up at him Alex then continued, “You don’t have to tell me. If you don’t want to talk about it right now I can wait. Or if you don’t want to talk about it at all, that’s fine too Sabre.” Alex then gently took Sabre’s wrist again and gently kissed the scars, like a child would. As if it where that simple to make them go away. The scars and the pain and memories with them. ‘If only it was that simple…’ Alex thought glumly to herself.  

[Firefly_Wanderer]

Sabre smiled at Alex's gesture. It wasn't his regular calm one, or even a happy one. He couldn't truly smile when HE was in his thoughts. "Maybe....maybe someday. But right now we should probably get ready for breakfast. Mrs. Amy will probably be yelling at us again." Sabre answered finally. Yes someday he'd talk about it. Someday he'd let his thoughts revisit that moonlite castle. Someday he'd let her know. But not now, not when even Sabre was too scared to face those memories.

Alex nodded, letting go of Sabre’s wrist again. “You’re right. She probably is mad,” She said, not noticing who was standing at the door. The phrase, ‘speak of the devil and she shall come’ is a good example. “Darn right I am,” Amy said and Alex’s ears when back, looking up. “Breakfast is getting cold and you two are sitting and chatting. Alex, brush your hair and get down stairs. Sabre, what are you doing going around with no shirt? Go put a shirt on before you head down. Well? Come on, get moving,” Amy said, dishing out orders much like a mother would with her own children. A harsh yet caring tone to her voice. Alex nodded and climbed out of bed, walking to the dresser and picking up the hair brush. “Yes Miss. Amy.”  

[Firefly_Wanderer]

To his embarassment Sabre jumped at the sound of Amy's voice. Well at least she wasn't killing him for being in her charges room...yet. "O-Of course Mrs. Amy. If you will excuse me." Sabre said smiling a little in the cooks direction before bowing to Alex. Quickly he turned moving easily around the woman towards his room. Yes shirt, he didn't like his scars this visable. And his leather braclet, normally he left it on to cover the scares on his wrist but when he went to bed he took it off. In a moment he was in the hallway a long white tank top over his torso and the thick dark leather braclet in place as he waited for Alex and Amy.

Alex quickly brushed through her hair, glancing up as Sabre walked out. ‘More scars…?’ She thought to herself. ‘He’s not going to get anymore… Not here, not ever.’ Alex silently promised both herself and Sabre. Amy waved Sabre forward, saying, “Well, go on.” Alex came out of her room and quickly darted down the stairs, not wanting to make Amy any angrier.  

[Firefly_Wanderer]

Sabre was quick on her heels, not wanting to be left alone with the cook. Once down he moved into the kitchen, remembering where he saw the dishes be put away the previous night. Getting out the things needed to set the table Sabre did just that, hoping to help Amy out a little and make her less angry. "Your cook is rather scary when she is angry." he whispered at Alex hoping it was loud enough she'd hear and not Amy.  

[BunBunTheRagDoll]

Alex nodded, agreeing with Sabre she whispered back, “I know… I think that’s why she got the job…” She began to get the glasses out as Amy walked in. “What does everyone want to drink?” Alex asked, filling her glass with water. “Water,” Amy said as she took the toast out of the toaster and setting two slices on each plate. The food was already on the table, a pan of scrambled eggs sitting on a hot pad, another pan this one with hash browns, the butter and jelly, a knife and spoon close to each.  

[Firefly_Wanderer]

"Milk please, thank you. This looks good Mrs. Amy." Sabre said as he picked up a serving spoon dishing up some eggs onto Alex's plate and his own. "Would you like some?" He asked still holding a spoonful of eggs.  

[BunBunTheRagDoll]

Amy nodded, saying, “Yes please.” Alex nodded and put water into the second glass. She then set the glasses on the table and went to the fridge, getting out the milk and pouring a glass full of it into Sabre’s glass. After putting it away, she set it at the table. ‘Geez, maybe I should act mad around here more often…’ Amy thought to herself.  

[Firefly_Wanderer]

Sabre murmured a thanks as he put the eggs on Amy's plate. Quietly he got some butter on his toast before he dished up some hashbrowns to everyone. He felt a little silly be scared of the cook, but at the same time why throw gasoline on an already lit flame? Quietly he started eating keeping his eyes mostly on his plate as he contemplated the previous evening.
