Obsessed (Yuna & Alvis Alendran's 1x1)

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpg

It wasn't a full-fledged nap, per se. But Mary Alice did fade in and out of consciousness. If one had to use an appropriate term, it was more or less rapid eye movement. The emotional and physical tolls her body and mind had all endured began to help the actress drift into a small sleep. It wasn't as much or good as it could have been. But it was definitely something. And with how things were going, she was steadily appreciating what Mary Alice did continue to have. Her life was a major item upon that list but definitely not the only one.

While she could have strained to hear Daniel, her body didn't allow for her to. She was too exhausted and sore. Only when her mind registered the sensation of being picked up and moved once again did her eyes even open and remain that way. A low groan left as her head shook weakly.

"... Please don't do this." She whispered, beginning to blink and adjust her sight. A van was the first thing to catch her blue orbs. Next was the back opened, some supplies inside, and finally ... the cage. Her feet must have been moving on instinct because she definitely didn't remember taking steps. The sight of the steel and temporary home made Mary Alice's eyes narrow.

"...Fuck sakes, Daniel. I'm not some dog or some crap of the like." She murmured, merely staring at it for a few moments. Her gaze lowered as an infuriated sigh soon left. It was incredibly reluctant ... but a few more seconds later, Mary Alice crawled inside. Her mind hadn't needed to think long or much to know it'd be stupid to try to break into a run. Her body would likely fail her, especially with how weary and aching it was from everything. And even if that succeeded, he was right behind her. It wouldn't take for him to do much but reach out and grab her arm, hair even, and force her in.

Still, Mary Alice was careful to avoid making too much contact with her whipped rear and back. She sat down, trying to get as comfortable as possible despite the cage being cold to her skin's touch. The change in temperature of the structure plus that of her body made her shake and shiver as her arms went over her body to keep herself warm. She'd give anything - well, almost - for a blanket. But that was likely pushing her luck for the time being.

Pulling her knees up in front of her chest, her head fell upon her patellas. A defeated sigh left her lips as her eyes closed again. "May I at least know where we're going exactly?" She finally inquired. There didn't seem to be much harm in him revealing that much, not when her cell phone was still in her jeans pocket back in the house. For that matter ... did he grab any of her clothes? What was going to happen? All the what-ifs and scenarios made butterflies begin to fly around in her stomach.
 
Not utterly heartless, Daniel did set a small blanket in the cage with her, and then closed it up. He shifted it onto a small wheeled platform, and pushed it along.
"It's all I could think of to make sure you didn't run or cause trouble. I'd hoped to not need it." He said to her as he pushed her along. Out the back door, and into her yard for only a brief second before she was up the ramp, and into the van. "We're going somewhere safe." Was all he said as he slammed the back doors of the van. He got into the drivers seat, and pulled away, his heart beating wildly as he realized that not only had he started this fully now, he'd even succeeded in one of the hardest parts.

The van was a fairly smooth ride, he'd specifically set up the suspension to be easier on the cargo area. It wouldn't do for mary to be bounced around too much. The drive wasn't as long as it could have been, Daniel taking a few shortcuts. But they ended up a fair distance out of town, and he stopped the van once to go outside, adn drag a large block of foliage across the entrance to the back road. No one who wasn't from around here would notice, and it would give him and extra layer of secrecy. He got the van moving again, going down the long back road, until they ended up at a small cabin. He stopped the van, adn went around to teh back of the van, opening it up.
"We're here." He said simply. He unlocked the cage.

As the feeling of something being placed on her flesh comprehended into her brain, Mary Alice let one eye open. She unfolded it and eagerly wrapped the blanket around herself, clinging onto it as if it were her very soul. Her eyes closed slowly again and she let nothing save a low, irked scoff leave her lips. A cursing fit echoed in her head but didn't dare echo aloud. With her luck, she'd lose the blanket and more. While she didn't know what 'more' would translate into, Mary Alice didn't wish to test that out either.

Much like Daniel, her own heart was racing but definitely not for the same reasons. Whereas her ex was ecstatic about this .. trip, she was genuinely terrified. He didn't give any real hints on anything that would or wouldn't happen. Really, what was he hoping for? To make her fall in love with him again?

Tch, not like this ....

Another blessing came into ... well, not view. But she did note the lack of rough bouncing. Her eyes remained closed during the entire trip as another set of rapid eye movements took over her. She snuck in small naps, each lasting no more than three minutes.

Finally, the door opened once again and the cage was unlocked.

Go away. I'm fucking tired ...

As much as those very words wanted to leave her, nothing did. Mary Alice merely pushed herself out, keeping the blanket held firmly against her skin. The blue orbs revealed themselves once again. After all, she didn't want to trip over anything. They then went down to the grass, ensuring that no alcoholics had been here before to avoid stepping on shards of glass. The blue circles remained down to make certain of that as her feet slowly and carefully began to guide the actress forward and towards the cabin.
 
Daniel smiled, adn led her over to the cabin. She was quiet, which was nice really. He loved the sound of her voice, when it wasn't twisted with rage and hate. That had actually been one of the things about her that he'd always liked, had drawn him to her really. He hoped that she might come around to speak to him easier. He opened the cabin door, and let her go in. It was pretty simply laid out. A wide open main room, with a large fireplace. A table with two chairs was set up. Hanging from one of the chairs was a set of clothes obviously too small to be for Daniel. He walked in, and turned to her, and offered the outfit. It was just a snap shirt, but one with long sleeves that would hang down past her waist, and a simple pair of pants.
"I tried to remember your size. I hope they fit." He told her, pressing the clothes into her hand.

He went to the stove, and opened it, finding the small plate within still warm from the low setting he'd put it on. He set the plate on the table, and speared a fork into it.
"I don't know when you ate last. But you eat now. And then..." He trailed off, admitting to himself that he'd never really planned in detail where to go from here. Maybe she'd be grateful? Or she'd be angry, and lash out. He knew how to react with both of those things. ANything in the middle would...be confusing.

As Mary Alice was being led into the cabin, she noted the smile on Daniel's face. The single feature made a knot form tightly within her stomach. How in the hell could he be able to grin of all things? It was ... such an out-of-place reaction that truly baffled the actress. While indeed the cabin was nice, this still wasn't what she had wanted. The outfit, top especially, made her spirits sink. Her eyes narrowed at them as she moved the clothes from her hand to the chair it'd been in.

A low half-scoff and half-laugh left as Daniel's voice trailed off. "So .... you planned all this and yet really don't even know what you're doing?" Her head shook as she sat in front of the fireplace. "Just ... seriously. Leave me alone for a bit." Her voice shook as the tears resumed falling. "The last thing I am is hungry. I've lost my appetite since you decided to rape me. Your mission to save me is doing anything but working. Especially when I never wanted - needed it - to begin with."

She'd avoid the rage and screaming. But Mary Alice would still speak her mind and thoughts. She had that much as far as she was concerned. Besides ... really? He truly was stuck on what to do. What had been the point in this? Everything was such a waste. Moreover, had he seriously expected her to accept this trip? Let alone to be happy with the same man who ravaged her mere moments ago?

No. She couldn't do it. Any sane person would be acting the way she was; disgusted and saddened. Her eyes stared into the fireplace as tears slowly fell down her face.
 
Daniel looked at her, and listened as she spoke. What she said wasn't unreasonable. Not really. But to give her that, would be...to give her the precedent that she could make demands. Still, a little while would hurt anything, and he had some work to do anyway. He left teh cabin, and went back to the van. The cage he put against the wall, and on an instinct, he went to the small shed of an outbuilding, and took an old blanket tossing it inside, putting some layering between the metal of the floor, and anyone who might be in it. And he wanted to have some measures available to him if he had to discipline Mary. He stacked the supplies in the shed, none of them needing to be refrigerated, and then locked the shed door. Enough animals around that it wasn't safe at all leaving the food unsecured.

The whole process took him close to an hour, which was about as long as he was willing to indulge Mary. He went back inside.
"You should eat, even if you don't feel like it. You don't know when you'll get the chance to do so again is." He warned her, moving into teh cabin, and lighting the fireplace.
 
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpg

Her body tensed up as silence hovered between the two once again. She was expecting another slap, verbal lashing, or something of the like. Needless to say when none of those happened, she was amazed and simultaneously glad. Her eyes followed Daniel as he ... left? What was he doing? Did she even want to know? Part of her thought yes, another not so much. She only went with the latter - well, not only but mainly - due to having little to say to him. And she truly did wish to be alone. The request hadn't been just for herself. No. She'd been very sincere in what she had asked for.

Now that it had been given to her, Mary Alice figured it'd be wise to take advantage of the privilege while it remained. Once he was outside, she got to her feet and began to walk around the cabin. Knowing the interior would help her out, or so she hoped. She took note of every room, furniture or anything else that was inside each location, taking notes on whether there were windows or not, and other mental observations of the nature. Once she finished her surveillance, the actress went back to her spot in front of the fireplace.

Her tears had slowed but not fully stopped. Still, a few things had become clear. Daniel truly wasn't the same man she'd used to love let alone know. If she was going to ever get out of this mess, he was making it next to impossible for anyone to assist. So, she'd have to do it herself. That had been exactly why she had snuck around and taken note of the rooms, in case knowledge of the cabin would be needed in the future, be it immediately or not. Three ... what was three? It had temporarily left her mind but she was pretty sure there had been another point.

As Daniel returned, her body tensed once again. It took every ounce of willpower to keep from glaring in annoyance at his threat. Unfortunately, that had been one of the most true points he had brought up this entire day. Well, somewhat. Eating would give her energy and strength. And if nothing else, she'd need it for those reasons.

She said nothing as she stood up and sat in the empty chair, beginning to eat quietly.
 
The fire was lit, and Daniel carefully fed wood into it. It got cold out here int he woods after all, especially after dark. And this place was not the best insulated. But it would be fine now. He started to think of what was going to happen. There was only one bed in the house, and as much as the thought of sharing it with her appealed to him, he was also not confident she wouldn't try to stab him in the eye while he slept. She'd shown herself to have that kind of nature he felt. That had never been there before. He attributed it to her work. What else had it done to her? Time would tell. He watched as she ate, and gave her teh time to finish what she was doing before he moved over to stand near the table. He took the empty plate from her, and took it to the sink. He spoke to her as he cleaned it.

"This is only going to work one way Mary. You'll talk to me with respect, and when you do, it will go better. I'll ask you to do things. And you should do them. When you do them, I'll return things to you. Give you things to make your life easier. If you don't do things, then I'm going to take things from you, and make things harder for you. The sooner you get used to doing the things that I tell you, the better off you'll be." He informed her calmly. "Do you understand?"
 
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpg

Once the plate was moved away, Mary Alice sat in front of the newly lit fireplace. One hand ensured the blanket stayed wrapped around her as the free hand rested close by the warm flames. She'd already noted a bit of the harsh temperature. Needless to say, it was a relief to feel there would be another source of heat besides Daniel's body. True, this wouldn't be permanent. But that was exactly why she was savoring it while it still remained. Her teeth gripped her lower lip as Daniel began to speak up.

Did she understand? Oh perfectly. Liking it, however, was a completely different issue.

Why should I owe you shit? What more can you even take from me?

That last question, though, was one the actress did and didn't wish to know, much like when Daniel had upped and left the cabin. Her head bowed as she kept a hand raised in front of the orange-red flames. For a while, she stayed silent, saying nothing aloud. Finally, he would see a nod.

".... Yeah, I understand." She replied softly.
 
Daniel could see the conflict she was in, but she'd accepted the fact that there wasn't much in the way of choice in her current situation. That was a good thing. She was still likely very displeased and angry, but it was a start. So with that, he thought to offer her another option.
"At the very back, there a shower. You should get cleaned up before you sleep. You've had...a trying day." He said to her, knowing that he'd just made the understatement of all time. But it was all he could really say. "Don't take too long. Ther hot water doesn't last for very long at a time out here." He advised. As he spoke he pulled the covering off of the shower stall.

It was tucked in the corner, behind a few cabinets that helped cut it off, block out line of sight, giving the person just a little bit of privacy while they were in it. The walls were clear glass though, so if one stepped around the cabinets, they'd be able to see who was in it very clearly. But it looked like it was in good repair, and would work.
 
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpg

An inward scoff instantly echoed in her head. Seriously, who did Daniel think he was speaking to? A child? She always cleaned herself anyways, regardless of whether the actress had exerted a lot of energy or not. But the rape only added further incentive. Admittedly, it would simultaneously get rid of any physical evidence of what had occurred. But ... she didn't want to remain in her current state for long.

Mary Alice gave a quiet nod, nothing more nor less. After allowing her hands a few more minutes in front of the fireplace, she stood and got to her feet, pretending to follow Daniel's directions. She'd known where to go even before he spoke up. After all, she'd surveyed and looked around the entire cabin. Thus the location of the bathroom he was describing had been simple enough to find. But she would play ignorant and act as if she didn't know where he had referred to prior to mentioning it.

Well, that maybe would be able to help her out; her job. It was what she specialized in, after all. And many of her co-workers had said sometimes it was difficult to distinguish when she was or wasn't acting. Nodding to herself, she walked inside and sighed softly upon seeing the barely discreet shower. It was nice to hear that it did have some hot water, even if not much. But the very fact it didn't tend to last long honestly worried her.

Was there an actual heater even? She hadn't seen one but, admittedly, Mary Alice had rushed her search a bit just from lack of knowing how long she would have to check the cabin out. So it was possible that she had missed seeing it. But ... Mary Alice doubted that had been the case. It made her inwardly frown at the mere thought.

Her hands hesitantly let the blanket move away as her nude body was exposed to the cold air. Reaching out, she began adjusting the water, waiting for it to get warm. Once she felt the appropriate change in temperature finish up, the actress stepped inside, beginning to let the warm liquid cascade down her slightly sore body. Her back, especially, greatly appreciated it from the whippings Daniel had given her earlier.
 
Daniel fought back the first instinct to go ovrer and watch her in the shower. But that woudld not be proper for him. He'd done so much to her that he hadn't planned on getting to until much later, but it was over with now. He had to focus on getting her back to how she was before she'd left for that job of hers. He'd imagined that she'd come with him, that she'd be ready for this, maybe even a little grateful for his efforts. But he was beginning to see that he would have to work on her, break her down a little, and build her back up into a better person. And that would start in the morning. Right now, he would give her the chance to sleep the night through, maybe feel a little refreshed.

But in the morning...there would be some differences. When she wanted things, she would have to perform tasks for them. And he had a good idea what some of those might be. He admitted to himself that he didn't know a lot of ways to break her down without being cruel, but to be mindlessly cruel would only harden her against him. She would have to make mistakes here and there. But he had little doubt that there would be moments that she refused to do what he asked of her. He slipped into the bedroom, and opened the wardrobe that he'd put some clothes in for her. Nothing terribly fancy. At least not yet. But he found an over-long shirt that she could use for sleeping in, as well as a pair of loose fitting pajama pants. He carried the pile over to the cabinet, and left the clothes on the floor in easy sight, along with a few towels. Nodding to himself, he moved over to a chair near the fire, adn waited. He didn't want to risk going to sleep before her on the first night.
 
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpg

It was disheartening and saddening that Mary Alice had to rush the shower. She'd have gladly savored the hot water. But she didn't wish to test them either and see how cold it could get so fast. Grabbing a washcloth, she covered it with soap and carefully began to wash her body off. It made her a bit glad she couldn't reach all of her back, knowing she'd avoided some painful stings and surges of agony. But it hadn't been something she'd fully kept from feeling either and what bits did rush through her made Mary Alice wince lowly.

"Son of a bitch ... " She murmured, panting and shaking lightly. After her body had a few moments of reprieve, she continued the shower and began to work on lathering her hair with shampoo. It wasn't her typical choice. But it wasn't the worst it could have been either. The scent was a tad stronger and heavier than usual but not god-awful in aroma. And as long as it did it's job .. that would really be all Mary Alice honestly cared about. Now if only there were conditioner. But ... ah well. This was a better start than she could have had. Common sense told her that much.

It was reluctant but after the last bits of shampoo exited her crimson strands, Mary Alice turned the shower off. Moving the curtains aside, she found the towels and long nightgown. The choice of attire .. was actually pretty accurate. In fact, it was something that she did tend to wear. It made her begin to feel a bit more at home.

Taking one of the towels, Mary Alice began drying herself off thoroughly and getting into the pajamas. The lack of panties worried her and made the actress feel sleazy. The sensation of the fabric barely touching her bare slit sent a shiver down her spine. Another towel wrapped in her hair, as if a turban, to use as a makeshift hair dryer.

It was tempting to go right to the room. But no. Mary Alice wasn't supposed to know where to go. So .. she back-tracked. Sure enough, she found Daniel nearby the fireplace. Remaining silent, she looked at him with a look that asked 'Now what?'.
 
Daniel stood up, and walked to the wall, where he grabbed a large sleeping bag. He set it on the floor in front of the fire.
"You can sleep here, where it's warmest. I'll be in the bedroom, and there's a spot in the bed for you if you want it. If not, this is where you'll be sleeping for the next little while." He explained to her. He added a few more logs to the fire, the heat crackling out. It would be good to have it banked up until the morning. He then went tot eh door, and closed a hinge locck, putting a padlock on it, and sealing the door from the inside. There was no getting out without the key.

Daniel went to the bedrom, but left the foor open. He dressed for bed without thinking of it, just a pair of loose fitting pants. He climbed into the bed, and tilted his head. He could still see her, and he turned on a lamp over his head, giving him enough light to read a book by. He started doing just that, flicking his eyes up to Mary every now and again, waiting for her to sleep so he might safely do the same.

... You really are out of your fucking mind ...

How did he expect her to dare sleep with him? After he'd just raped her? It took every bit of self-control to avoid scoffing, shaking her head no, or giving him an 'Are you insane?!' look. He got nothing in terms of a verbal reply. He would, however, see her slip under the sleeping bag and lie down, her head resting upon her hands. A weary sigh passed her lips as her eyes slowly closed.

Was this really all she could do? Just ... accept this? Grin and bear it? Her head shook no slowly. Mary Alice didn't want to accept that. There had to be some opening, some opportunity that would present itself. Until then, she just had to hold on. It seemed so easy but deep down, the actress knew it was much more difficult. She had been in a few movies that required performing a hostage role. But to actually be one .. that was so very different. Especially when she knew the men roughing her up were only doing it because a script told them to.

But not now. No, Daniel was doing this all for his selfish desires and via his own accord. That made him all the more dangerous.

Her eyes stared upon the still burning flames as she watched them flicker. With how hopeless everything seemed, it was tempting to break down and cry. But she'd done more than enough of that as it was. Another sigh left as she let her eyes close.

Uneasily, but still doing so all the same, Mary Alice fell into a sleep. Physical and mental fatigue helped out more than anything else. Otherwise, she would have been awake much longer with the awkward location and knowledge of Daniel being closer than she'd wish.

The steady rising and falling of her chest would signal to him that the actress had given in and, whether she'd wanted to or not, fallen asleep.
 
Daniel saw her drop off, adn waited until he was sure that she was actually out. He shut off the light, and let himself go. He'd had a busy, and stressful day as well. One didn't perform a kidnapping and rape lightly after all. His dreams were filled with memories, happy times with Mary, but they always soured with teh knowledge that she'd ultimately left him for her job. And that still stung him, even to this day. But now there was a chance to get back to the right track. And this time there was going to be sex involved. Since they'd already gotten past that hurdle, he saw no reason not to indulge in it more.

Moring dawned, the sun barely up before his eyes popped open. He always rose early. Habits like that never really went away. He saw mary still on the floor, adn sighed. He got out of bed, stretching, and then heading into the other room. He sank into a chair nearby her. He watched her, waiting for her to wake up. He did want her to be able to get as much sleep as she needed. And then they'd start the day off right.
 
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpghttp://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b242/virgo2005/RPC-RP Pics/Redhairfemale_zpsce8c427c.jpg

Mary Alice also had her own array of dreams. Hers, unlike Daniel's, all showed her being at home once again. Her actual home, not the cabin she was being forced to reside in. The sights alone teased and taunted the actress, making her whimper in her sleep and damn well nearly cry again. She'd give anything for the visions to be real. But her mind knew perfectly well they weren't. It made her fear and wish to enjoy the visions while they stayed in view, fearing them disappearing once her eyes opened yet again.

Unfortunately, she was also used to waking up early. Even when she was done acting in a movie, Mary Alice tended to wake up around dawn. It was an easy way to keep herself busy and not so bored. Usually anyways. As her sight reminded the actress that now she was in that same cabin, a low sigh left her lips.

... That's right. You're still in Hell. Fuck ....

Her gaze remained upon the ceiling for a while before noticing Daniel out of the corner of her eyes. How long had he been there, watching her? That was about as nerve-wracking as the man himself.

Sliding out from underneath the sleeping bag, she began quietly folding it up, figuring it was the least she could do. While Mary Alice had admitted to understanding his terms and conditions, she had never said she agreed with them. Not fully anyways. Maybe some tasks would be ... tolerable. But it would honestly depend on what he tried to ask from her. Anything sexual though ... oh no. That would only clarify he wasn't at all sane to try to ask her for such things. No rape victim would wish to touch the same person who'd stolen their purity.

Needless to say, Mary Alice was no exception.

After finishing with the sleeping bag, she set it beside her and sat down quietly on the floor.
 
Daniel watched as she cleaned up the sleeping bag, and nodded to her. That was good. He liked her showing some initiative. It was a good sign, he thought. He took in the look in her eyes. He'd been tempted to see if he could get her to go down on him, but he was having his doubts. And besides, there was the matter of his having an idea for helping with their hot water situation. The hot water heater could only draw in a little bit of water, and the tank emptied very easily. He had an idea on how to fix that, but if he was honest, he could use another pair of hands to get the job done.

"You'll get dressed. And then we're going outside. Once that's done, we'll come back inside, and eat." He told her, standing up, and walking back to the kitchen table. The jeans and snap shirt that she'd ignored the other day were still there, and he tossed them to her. He went ot he bedroom, and pulled on a shirt and proper pants. He went back into the main room, and opened the padlcok off of the door, preparing to get thigns going. He pulled the door open, letting in the brisk morning air. "After you." He said to Mary.

The thought of walking with Daniel didn't sink well with Mary Alice. For all she knew, he'd had a change of heart during the night and was about to take her into the woods and kill her. And while he had constantly vowed to not resort to that, it was difficult to believe. He'd done the same with never raping her, after all. And look how that had gone.

Her eyes glanced towards the clothes. If nothing else, the ability to be outside of the cabin may allow for an opportunity. It was the only real saving grace she had at this rate. Nodding slowly, she pulled the nightgown off of her body and began slipping into the jeans and snap-on t-shirt. Once both adorned her, she glanced down once more before up to Daniel.

"...You're not really expecting me to go barefoot, are you?" She inquired, sighing as she heard a mental reply of 'yes' ... somehow. Besides he was already prepared and not generally the type to forget things. If he had, he would have likely dealt with that now. But the lack of gathering at least socks if not those plus shoes hinted he had meant to do that.

Her arms went over her chest as she began walking outside. She'd let herself exit the front door but not lead. After all, she didn't know where he wanted her to go.
 
Mary had a point. Daniel had been careful, and thorough about bringing things inside, but the pair of hiking boots that should fit her were not one of them. They'd be chilly, but they would have to do. He looked at her as she stepped outside.
"Where are my manner? And where is my mind? Of course you need something on your feet. You could hurt yourself, and then where would we be? Nowhere good, that's for sure. We'll fix this, go to the shed there." He pointed as he spoke. He didn't really wait for her to lead, but he didn't put himself far enough in the lead he couldn't see her easily. The shed unlocked and opened easily enough, and he stepped inside, the lock still in hand. It wouldn't do to have her lock him inside. She might be able to escape, or try to. it was a long way through the woods before anything useful came up, and she'd likely be in a lot of trouble before then.

So it was best to keep things in hand. He found the boots. They had a good pair of laces in them, and the lining looked soft. He carried them outside, and set them before her.
"There you go Mary. I'll take care of you." He said calmly, closing and locking up the shed. "Now come along. We need to get to the spring. I's the only way to fix the hot water situation." He explained, waving for her to go along, as he set off for the tree line.

Great questions, Daniel. I'd love to know those answers honestly.

But she didn't dare let any of them leave, only echo in her mind repeatedly. Taking careful but swift steps, Mary Alice wound up in front of the shed as instructed soon enough. She leaned down and wiped the bottom of her feet off before slipping them into the matching boots. She stood back up to her full height after tying them and glanced around before back to Daniel. He'd insisted they were going to fix the hot water issue. But what if that was just a guise, a lie? Simultaneously, it worked backwards. What if that was the full-fledged truth? It would, admittedly, be nice to have much more hot water available, especially for showers.

And given all the ways this day could have began, it was .. merciful.

A defeated sigh passed her lips as she followed in toe with him. She'd try to hold him to his word about this only being for the hot water. But gods help her .. if Mary Alice got any other indications ... she didn't know what would happen. But it'd likely be desperate and not-so-typical of her. But push really had come to shove ever since yesterday. And for the most part, the actress had no real regrets on anything she'd said or done thus far.

At worst, she did wish to have not used such a harsh word as 'monster' to describe Daniel. But that was pretty much it.

Her arms gently rubbed up and down the opposite shoulders as she continued following Daniel's lead towards what was hopefully going to be merely just some .. method to make the warm water situation better for at least herself if not them both.
 
The forest was actually a beautiful place in the morning. The mist was still on the ground, giving everything an etheral, hazy quality. Daneil did have to admit that he loved this place. It was a place that the world had simply forgotten, and that was perfectly fine by him. He looked around him, making sure nothing had caused a problem in the area. He parted a few cobwebs. The spring wasn't far, and the sound of it bubbling was audible from a fair distance. When it came into sight, he smiled. A large boulder stood in the midst of a small clearing, and water bubbled from it easily, filling a small pond in front of it. The water was crystal clear, and looked perfect. he crouched to fill his hand, and take a drink. Clean and fresh, in ways that water in the city just couldn't match. And then her turned his attention to the pump.

"Mary, I need you feed the hose from the pump to me, while I mount it to the side of the spring. It will le the pump draw water in faster, and should give us mroe hot water." He explained, crouching beside the hose, adn laying out a few small tools. Little spikes that he would use to hold bars of metal in place, everything that he needed. But it would be a hard task without someone keeping the hose steady.

Much akin to her ex, Mary Alice silently admitted this scenery did have a nice view to it. Her own soft smile crossed her face. Next to the sun setting last night that the actress had managed to catch while walking back home, this was by far one of the more beautiful things she'd seen since Daniel's arrival. The tell-tale hints of the water not too far away made the young woman less anxious. The doubts faded once everything came into view and she was able to see for herself that the task he'd mentioned was indeed all he would ask from her.

After giving all the devices a quick look over, she understood well enough that this would be easier to accomplish with another person to assist.

A slow nod left as she knelt down and took a firm hold of the hose. She connected the nozzle onto the pump and gave Daniel another nod. "I've got it. It should be ready." She finally replied, using both hands to ensure the hose remained in place and never once tried to leave.

Even while waiting, her mind continued to race. Was this his own act? Or was the genuine act of kindness an actual side to Daniel? He used to have it but had appeared to lose it moments before Mary Alice wound up going to her acting job. And a selfish part of her couldn't lie; she had missed the old Daniel. It was ... odd and yet a relief to steadily see those traits of him. But if it was just to lure her into a false sense of security ... no. She couldn't love him. Even if this was genuine, it was still a major coin toss.

He'd broken his vows and raped her anyways despite having sworn to never do so. The fact he'd gone that far was a very cruel memory which continued to haunt her mind and only remind Mary Alice of reasons she shouldn't fall for him again.

Her teeth gripped her lower lip as she stared down at the hose, waiting for Daniel to signal he was done. This whole ordeal was so very confusing and tormenting. The worst part? It'd only just begun.
 
Daniel worked quickly. He'd always been good with his hands. It had been useful when he'd been living with Mary. Near anything that broke within the house was always easily fixed and restored. Rarely did a repairman need to be called, or have something sent out for fixing. It had saved them money, and truth be told, had always given Daniel a sense of purpose. He'd only gotten better since they'd been apart. He tapped the spikes into place, feeding the hose through the new braket, deeper into the spring. They would still have to be somewhat careful, as the pump would be able to empty the pond if they let it run long enough. He secured the bracket, and nodded. The hose tried to withdraw, but only by an inch or so.

Daniel pulled out a small plastic container, and opened it. With a flip, it extended out, making a collapsable drinking cup. He dipped it inot the spring, and turned to offer it to Mary.
"Here. Drink. It's different here. No filter. Just pure water." He said calmly. It was a small thing. But it was something that he did want to share. After all, besides Mary, there was no one anywhere around to share this place, and the small wonders within with. And that mattered. Sharing these things.

The actress slowly let go as the nod from Daniel caught her eyes. She'd been pretty certain that had been her cue to let go. The sight of the nozzle remaining mostly in place, however, was the final hint which said they had indeed succeeded in the task. She stood back up to her full height, taking the opportunity to better study all that was around them. It all really was quite the sight to behold. Los Angeles was lovely and all but .. there were somethings it never had in comparison to these types of environments. The peaceful aura that came about the surrounding woods was definitely one and, for that matter, a nice change of pace. The more natural beauty as opposed to man-made landscapes and buildings was also another.

It had been a while but Mary Alice had gotten to travel out of state and even country for some movies. This reminded her of a smaller version of New Zealand, where all of the films for the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy had been shot. It was by far one of her favorite environments even to this day.

The soft flipping noise the cup had made snapped the actress out of her thoughts. As the offer was given to her, poor Mary Alice felt even more tormented. That same calm and kind demeanor ... where had that been yesterday? Hell, where had it disappeared before she wanted to break up with him? A slightly shaking hand accepted the water as she sipped from it, giving a slow nod.

"... Thank you." She replied softly, fighting off the urge to cry again.
