1x1 With Scottish Girl

[Neruda Love Song]

Genesis gasped. Gathering her skirt in her hands she pushed passed the guards and out into the corridor. Speeding past the rooms and down the stairs she ran alone with the sound of her muffled steps on the stone floor. The throne room came into view and her father's chair was empty. Frustrated, she ran out of the palace and to the execution yard.
"Move!" She tried to push passed people but it was useless. The pain from yesterday came back.
"Andrew!" She screamed out.

[Scottish Girl]

Everybody looked up at her scream and the executioner froze,"What is it darling?" asked the king, standing up. He glared at Andrew slightly, accusing him of upsetting his beloved daughter. But Andrew looked as baffled as everyone else. The king made his way through he crowd anxiously,"What is it " he asked again as he approached her, fear in his eyes. He loved his daughter more then anything, and he almost had a heart attack when he heard she had disappeared

"Don't kill the idiot." She thrust her hand up in Andrew's direction. "It was my fault not his. That and you can't kill someone for not being all there." She tapped her head and grimaced. She crossed her hands over her chest and looked at her father. "I shouldn't have let him out of my sight. I should have been more prepared. Plus, killing him would be too easy. It would be like letting him go. Shouldn't he suffer?" She didn't think so, but she needed to get him out of there.

The king nodded softly and motioned to the guards who dragged Andrew back to the dungeons and the crowd walked away. The kit turns to his daughter "I want to see you acting like a Proper master, and get him a collar, every noble persons slave has to have a collar, by law," said the king before walking away.

Andrew sat in his cell, relief flooding over him and he smiled.

When Genesis went back into the castle she order a maid to bring her a collar. Then she went to the courtyard and sat down on the stone bench. The leaves on the cherry tree were disappearing. A sign of a on coming winter. However, the sun was just still trying to rise in the sky, making Genesis feel warm. The maid she ordered to get the collar shuffled in, and Genesis wondered why they couldn't just walk normally. In her hands she held a leather collar with 'Genesis' sown in the front. Genesis nodded and took the collar.

The dungeon is probably Genesis least favorite room, but she ignored the feeling of turning back. She had already been in here. Under orders of her father a guard was sent down with just if Andrew tried again, which she doubted highly. Standing in front of Andrew's cell, the guard behind her, she placed a hand on the cold bar.
"Andrew," she said with a emotionless blank face.

[Scottish Girl]

Andrew stood up, turning to her as he head her saying his name.Even in the darkness of the dungeon Andrews eyes shined like he sun. He scratched the back of his neck and looked down at his feet,"Thank you, miss," he said, and he was thankful, more then she could ever know. Andrew looked at her with his shinning blue eyes,"I won't run away again," he promised. Andrew took promises very seriously, and if he promised something he never broke his promise.

Genesis was silent, still no emotion on her face. She motioned to the guard to open the door and when he did, Genesis stepped forward and put the collar around his neck. Stepping back she looked down at her feet. "Go to the stables and clean the stall. When you are done a maid will show you your new room," she said in a monotone.

[Scottish Girl]

Andrew looked rather surprised at the collar, but didn't say anything. H bowed his head and walked out down to the stable where he was greeted by his relieved friends. Andrew sat in the stable after he had cleaned it, looking at the horse. He was just having a break before he went to find the maid. The other boys joined him where he sat, and watched as the horses ate their hay happily. Andrew stood up, but the boys pulled him back down,"Sit and relax! The princess will just think you are still cleaning he stable out, she won't know" they said and Andrew shrugged and sat down again.

Genesis was at the loom when the maid came in.
"The room is ready."
Genesis nodded. "I'll take him." The maid nodded and shuffled away. Getting up Genesis made her way down stairs.
"Andrew?"

[Scottish Girl]

Andrew was no where to be seen. He was still sitting in the stables after an hour laughing th his friends. The horses were all starting to go to sleep, and weren't bothered by the boys roars of laughter. Andrew should have been back in the house half an hour ago, bt had forgotten.
