The Broken Boys.

Chapter Eight.

Okay. I know I say it every time.... But once more won't hurt.

Blah blah blah. Sorry. I haven't updated in ages.... Blah blah... I'm shit.. Blah... This probably will be shit ... Blah...blah...blah...b...l...a...h...

Good luck...

I was woken with a very aggressive dig in my side by something hard. I rolled over mumbling,

"Stop it!" Do they not know what time it is? Seriously. Sleep time! My protests were ignored as the digging continued even harder. "Will, stop it!" I groaned. Shit! Did I say Will? Why would I say Will? Maybe no-one heard? I opened my eyes to face the cause of the prodding, of course, Marion. The half pissed off face, half confused face was the least of my worries right now.

The fact that the whole gang were staring in silence, now that was my problem. I think they heard! Allan looked highly amused as John tried to hide his smile, Robin looked ready to punch Will, Djaq looked slightly hurt and Much, well Much looked just confused.

How to play it off? How to play it off. I know. Pretend I do t even know I done it. That'll work... Right?

"Marion" I groaned. "Too early!" To which I then rolled back over to then here the satisfying sounds of a pair of retrieving footprints. Really? That worked? Yay. Sleep time! My victory was short lived was ruined by ice cold water drowning me on my lovely warm and cosy bed. Rude! I sat up gasping, to see Marion there scolding me with an empty bucket in one hand. Where did the bucket of water even come from? "Okay?" I asked turning to face the gang, "does anyone know why Marion's being such a bitch this morning?"

"Why I'm being a bitch?" Marion asked in a ridiculously high pitched voice.

"Yeah." I said standing up and rinsing out my hair. "You just got me wet!" I heard Allan chuckling along with me at the immaturity and dirtiness of our minds.

"Oh grow up!" Marion sighed. She then stared as if she was waiting for something. What? Think. Think. Think. What does she want?

"Is there any food?" I asked. What? Food would help me think.

"Your unbelievable!" She groaned and walked to sit down at the campfire.

"Why thank you!" I smiled sitting opposite her.

"I don't think that was a compliment." A voice laughed as handing me a bowl of Much's morning soup. I looked up to see Will. Shit! I blushed and looked down. Don't panic! Maybe he doesn't remember. Doesn't remember? It happens less then ten minutes ago. Just focus on Marian, not Will, Marion. Everyone joined us around the campfire. Everyone apart from Robin keeping a safe distance away from Marian as she looked like she could explode at any moment.

We awkwardly stared at each other before the silence was too much.

"Sooo" I dragged out. "What ya doing?" I saw a vein in her neck twitch. Shit!

"You!"

"Me!"

"You!"

"Yes me?" Me? This can't be good.

"You, can't do what you did last night?" What?

"Is it just me or is she talking in riddles?" I asked Allan who was sitting the other side of me. "What'd i do last night?" I asked innocently to Marian.

"What didn't you do last night?" Sleep with Will. Wait! What? Why say that.

"I'm pretty sure I didn't" Think. Don't mention Will. "Kiss a pig!"

"Na. Will wasn't free last night." Allan joked causing me to spit my water everywhere in laughter and shock. The idea of kissing Will and Allan's insult making me then choke. Once I recovered I looked up, avoiding Will's eyes. Everyone was staring. Wait. Maybe I did. "I didn't kiss a pig last night did I?"

"NO. YOU DIDNT KISS A PIG! BUT LETS SEE WHAT YOU DID DO LAST NIGHT SHALL WE?? OH RIGHT YOU INSULTED THE SECOND MOST POWERFUL MAN IN NOTTINGHAM, POURED YOUR WINE OVER HIM AND OH YEAH CLAIMED THAT HE SLEPT WITH THE SHERIFF." I had to bite my lip to stop myself laughing, while I high fived Allan who was also struggling to not laugh. She then quietly added in a much calmer voice. "The sheriff wants to meet you." Shit! No. No. No. No. No.

"Well, doesn't everyone. But I'm sorry but with these busy times I not sure I would be able to fit his bald head in."

"Your meeting him at noon!" Great!

"What! Why?"

"He wants to meet the girl that said he slept with his right hand man!" And with that she turned around and left camp.

"Shit!" I stood up and walked over to hand my empty bowl to Much.

"Well done." Allan applauded me. "You pissed off the Sheriff. Seriously well done, it took me over twenty years to piss him off and you've managed it in one night! I'm impressed." I took a bow.

"Why thank you, I do have my talents." I sighed. "Right, I'm going to go. Places to be. Prats to see! Cheers for the bed Rob. Bye guys." After a few byes, Allan run up behind me as I was walking away into the forest.

"Soooo-" he dragged out. Here we go. I sighed.

"Allan, are you going to say it or am I going to have to kick you in the nuts again?" He just smirked. Okay I'm getting scared. "Allan!" I poked him. "Allan." I poked him again. This went on for a while. Geez what is with him?

"Stop it." He laughed. "Stop it Will!" He said in a girly voice. I stopped in my tracks. Oh, he did not just go there! Before I knew what was happening I was launched myself at him, sending us both timberline down the hill. Rolling and rolling and rolling. Oh not this again. When I re opened my eyes I saw I was straddling Allan at the bottom of the hill. Weren't we just in this position with Will? Yeah but I'm not trying to kiss Allan! Still, you could stop laying on top of people.

Before my inner monologue could argue any more we heard a cough. Allan's head immdeatally shot in the direction of the noise. However, I knew what was waiting for my eyes, so instead just sighed, rolled off of Allan, stood up and finally looked up to be met with five faces gawping at me.

"Well I gotta go!" I said brushing myself down.

"But-" Robin started obviously confused.

"Nope."

"What just h-"

"Nope!" I said waving my hand in his general direction. And before I knew it I was on my way to Nottingham with two goals in my head. Don't piss off the Sheriff anymore! And try not to lay on anymore people!

Anyway yay or nay (Robin Hood references to any of you obsessive fans -like me ;) ) to more....????
