That sounds absolutely wonderful. You are indeed most gracious. *She was sounding more English by the second as she talked to him. She curtsied and managed to catch Nikkos's eye and winked at him.* We are very weary and my friend her is not quite herself from the stress of travel and we are bery glad for your offer.
I'm afraid I have no other horse to offer in the present circumstances, but if your friend is not well she may have my horse. *He hopped off and offered to help Chesna on.* Perhaps I could help carry the deer as well. *He looked skeptically at Layra.*
I wouldn't dream of it sir. You have been far too gracious already. *She slung the carcas over her shoulders again. Tis well I killed it without drawing blood or my clothes would be a right mess. *She pretended this was a casual comment at Nikkos and both were trying to hold in the laughter as he nodded.*
Tis well indeed.
*Layra smirked inside as a look of surprise and confusion crept over the mans athoritative features, making him look more like a young boy then a lord and ruing the air he had created up untill now.*

...you gotta be kidding me...*Chesna said under her breath she coudn't finish her critisisim for both Ben and the Man were lifting her into the saddle. SHe disliked horses with a passion. They were uncomftable, smelly and always affraid of her. This horse was no different. It started acting up as soon as she got in teh saddle. Luckaly it calmed down before the man could notice. Chesna glared at Ben and he shrugged apologeticly at her then rubbed his belly. She was about to throw something at him but remembed the man and smiled down at him*

Please, if you would good sir, lead the way. *They all followed the man and very shortly and rather large manor came into view.*

*Chesna was happy to see hte manor at first, then she realized she needed blood. Not solid food. She couldn't hold in solid food with this parasite in her stomach. How was she going to get blood and not get noticed? How was she ging to not eat dinner and not get noticed? She was in for a fun time tonight*
*They made it up to the front of the manor and the man called to his servants. They came out and he helped Chesna off the horse* This is Sam, he will show you to your rooms. *He gestured to an older butler that was already fully grey. The Butler looked at them then turned around and started walking. Chesna and Ben followed close behind*

*They followed Sam up to their rooms, he was about to put Chesna in Layra in the same room when Layra spoke up.* Good sir, would you seperate two sets of newly weds so close after the wedding. *The man blushed and ushered Sheep Boy in after Chesna and placed Nikkos and Layra in a room down the hall.* Thank you. These rooms are quite beyond anything we are used to. *The man bowed and walked out.*

*Chesna shut the door hurriedly behind her and ran to the window, she shut the curtains and made sure there was no other way of getting or seeing into her room. Ben was standing next to the door clueless as usual. She walked straight up to him and pulled him by his collar to sit next to her on the bed* Ben, the parasite and I are hungry and I don't see anyway of getting blood so if you don't mind....
*He obediantly showed her his neck and she bit down into it fast and hard. He winced and she felt bad, but she was too hungry to care for too long*

*Nikkos and Layra glanced at each other and then at the big fluffy bed infront of them. They stood in silence for awhile and exchanged a few more glances. Then the both ran for the bed jumping at the last second landing on their stomaches and bouncing several feet inot the air. When they landed they rolled over on to thier backs laughing.* You are terrible.
I know, isn't it wonderful. *They both burst out into laughter again.*

*Chesna finished feeding and looked up at Ben. He was slightly paler than usual but he looked fine.* Thank you..*She mumbled as she wiped the last of his blood off on her sleeve*
*Ben smiled at her and nodded* Anytime, so whats going on? Do we have to stay in our rooms till they get us or can we go anywhere?
*Chesna stood up and went over to the other side of the bed. She picked up a pillow and walked over to a small closet* mine *She pointed to the closet* Yours *She pointed to the bed* You come near me when I sleep and I will kill you...again. And we should stay here till they come get us for dinner. It's just how things are done. *Chesna was back to her normal self for the most part. She went inside her closet* wake me up when someone comes to get us ...*and she shut the door*
*Ben sat on the bed a little confused. He just nodded at her and sat there, staring at her closet*

Somehow, between all their laughter, Layra and Nikkos heard a small knock on their door. When Layra answered, Sam was there.*
My master whishes to know how you like your venison.
Rare. *She said this so fast that she startled poor Sam and it wasn't untill later that she realized Nikkos had said the same thing as her at the exact same time making Sam even more nervous.*
Any other preferences my lady? *He stammered.*
No, I shouldn't think so. We're not overly fussy, though if you haven't you may want to ask our friends down the hall. You see she is not quite well and he can be a fickly character at times.
Yes, thank you my lady. *He bowed and walked down the hall.
*Layra closed the door and fell backwards onto the bed again. She looked over at Nikkos and he looked back. They stared for a few moments and then he made a face at her and they continued their previously interupted laughter.*

*Ben heard a knock on the door and opened it. He saw Sam standing there*
My master whishes to know how you like your venison.
Er...rare. I'm not sure if Chesna will be eating anything. She is still not feeling too well. *Ben wasn't sure if he should wake Chesna up and decided agains't it* Thank you
*Sam nodded and left*

Oh no! *Layra sat up suddenly.*
What is it. *Nikkos was concerned. He didn't want to know what the next problem was going to be. Plus, it would probably involve Layra checking on Chesna.*
I forgot to ask him what time dinner is I'm starving. *She tried to say it with a straight face, but couldn't manage it. She burst into laughter and fell back onto the bed.*
*Nikkos sat there for a second shocked. Then, he picked up a pillow and started beating Layra with it.* That was not nice, I was actually worried. *He couldn't help but laugh along with Layra and soon they both had pillows and were chasing each other around the room.*

*Ben shut the door and went back to his bed. He wasn't sure what to do. He felt alone and very out of place. He was going to go and see what Layra and Nikkos were up to when he heard another knock on the door. He got up and answered it*
I heard that the poor lady was still not feeling well, so I came down here to check up on her *The noble man was standing righ tin front of Ben wanting to see Chesna who was in her closet doing how knows what at this very moment.*
*Ben did the only thing he could think of* Hold on a sec *And he shut the door in the mans face. He ran over to Chesnas closet and opened it. She was sleeping in the fetal posistion and hugging the pillow close to her* Chesna, the man wants to come in and see you, get out of the closet!
*Chesna opened an eye and looked up at Ben* Wha?....
*Ben picked her up and put her in the bed then ran over to the door. He opened it and smiled up at the man* Come on in...

*The laughter finally died as both tried to catch their breath. Layra stood up and noticed a chair by the window and went to sit in it. She found herself looking over a vast field. Beyond that she could see all kinds of animals moving about from the trees. The town they had left was nowhere to been seen.* You and I should find a place like this and stay there forever.
*Nikkos had walked silently over to Layra and her back was turned. How on earth had she know he was there?* Will I ever be able to sneak up on you?
*She turned around and saw he was smiling. She smiled back.* Only when I'm looking for you. *She giggled as she remembered and was a little embarassed by all the times she had run head first into him at school.*
*It took Nikkos awhile, but he finally got the joke and laughed a little himself. He hugged Layra, lifting her off the ground a few inches.* Well, then let's just keep it so that I'm never able to sneak up on you.

*The man looked a bit confused but walked in and up to Chesnas bed* How are you feeling now m'dear?
*Chesnas mind started wheeling once she saw him enter the room. He called her what?! She was almost 2000 years older than this little kid and he was calling her m'dear!? Chesna was getting upset but didn't want to show it. She put on her meek and weak act* ....I'm...better... *She tried to sit up and made a show of how "weak" she was*
*The man put his hand on her shoulder and looked concerned* No, don't try to sit up. It's alright, I don't think I ever introduced myself, I'm Haines Ingeldew, Lord of Salsbury. *He turned to Ben* Do you know whats wrong with your lady?
*Ben thought for a second a bit thrown off balance by the question. He couldn't just blab out that she was pregnant, people were not suposed to know that so early in pregnancies, at least thats what his mother told him.* Er.... *He shot a quick glance at Chesna and she shrugged*
*Haines looked back at Chesna and she smiled at him* I should bring up the house phycision
*Chesna almost chocked on her own spit* Erg...No, Thats alright, I'll be fine *Doctors lead to medicines and medicines lead to bedrest, they had to keep moving or Lucifer could come in and kill the entire household*

*Layra hugged him back, letting his smell envelope her as it had last night by the rocks. How had she gotten so lucky as to find him? What sometimes worried her was how they could love each other so much after one normal, private, conversation at school, and all they had talked about was how she and his mom shared the same condition. It was hard to paranoid at times like this though and right now she didn't care. No one had ever been this possesive of her since her mother and that had not been in a pleasant way and she had never felt as loved by someone since her father and, in its own way, that had not been pleasant either.*
