Blackened Heart

She looks at the lights as they reflect off of her eyes, then looks at him gazing into his eye. "Is something the matter?"

He laughed nervously, waving his hands. "N-No, of course not, nothing is the matter, I promise."

She looks closer. "Are you sure?"

He blushes a bit deeper. "Y-Yes..."

They hear a girl calling his name from the background as that voice sounded familiar to him a girl came up from behind him, she looked about 18 or so. She has blonde hair and was about 5'6 she was very pretty, but had a additude on her face. " Wow lord Marucus your finally back!" She hugs him close, Melina tilts her head as she looks at the girl.

Marucus blinked, looking at the arms around his waist. "What?" He was a little slow in recognizing the woman now latched about him.

She looks at him as she tilts her head. "Don't tell me you forgot me already, it's me Yoona." She looks at Melina as her eye twitched in annoyance. "Did you get a knew maid?"

He shakes his head, just now remembering who the girl was. "What? New maid? I never had an old maid."

Melina was confused as she seen the girl hold onto Marucus as Yonna looks back at Melina. "Um, what are you looking at?" She smiles. "Are you jealous of my looks, heh get in line."

Melina raised an eye brow as she sighs, why did she remind Melina of a much more evil and more insecure version os Ivy? "With all do respect ma`am, no I'm not jealous. Excuse me...I will leave you two alone, good evening Mi`lord." She bows her head and then walks back. Yonna smiles as Melina walks away.

"W-Wait, Melina!" He pulled Yonna out of the embrace. "Yonna, what the hell was that?" He looked at her fiercely.

She smiles as she looks at him. "Now Marucus, you know better then to be friend the poor, and looks at the way shes dressed, shes obviously not the seemstress to make clothes, she chuckles. "Shame, I under stand helping them because it's your duty, but don't be so close to them, because they will want something of you. Just trying to look out for you." She sees Melina walking down the street as she gives her a cold look.

"I don't ever remember putting you in charge of my affairs. Nor have you the right to say one insulting thing of Lady Melina." He stepped away from her. "Now, if you'll excuse me." He began walking in the direction Melina had went.

She gasped a bit as she puffed her face out. She wasn't going to give up that easily, she was going to follow him, but not be seen as he walked to Melina.

"Lady Melina!" He called after her, catching up. "I'm so sorry about that, I hope she did not insult you."

She chuckles and shakes her head. "It's alright, it's not the first time I have ran into someone like that...or the first time I have been called handmaiden, maid, servant, caretaker, farm girl, pesant, ect." She continues to walk until they were alone, she sat down at a bench and looks at him. "Hehe, I'm alright, don't worry."

He sat down next to her. "Are you sure? I don't know why she would say such things..."
