Your eyes slowly opened, waking up to an aching pain in your chest, your back, and your side where you must've fallen on. Your head throbbed, your arms are bruised, as you're sure there's a giant one on your chest and back to match. Considering the force of her punch, you're surprised none of your ribs are broken. You sit up, looking around to find a note written in red ink sitting in front of you. It reads:

'My dear (y/n), I'm terribly sorry I can't be with you at the moment. I do hope you forgive me for my actions yesterday, I just don't want you to leave me. You understand that, right sweetheart? I hate having to hurt you like that, I wish you would just take it easy on yourself and try not to run away. I want to be able to trust you, (y/n), please just realize that I'm doing this because I love you. As for why I'm gone; you know I have work to do, and I've already taken care of yours for you so you'll have nothing to worry about. I hope to return to you soon, don't worry about me too much dear . Love, Grell'

Perfect, so you have some alone time. You now have time to figure out how to escape. As you've figured out yesterday, running and resisting had no effect, and you really didn't want to get hurt as badly as you did yesterday again. That would make it impossible for you to escape at least for a long while. Perhaps you should go with the other plan, play to her emotions, try to earn her trust- wait, hell no. There's no way you were doing that! Besides, you weren't that good of an actor to play along with it. You had to resist. But, at the same time, as she had threatened and now done, she's not afraid to hurt you. Perhaps to some deranged measure, she actually loved you. She didn't even make you do your paperwork there, she did it for you. Maybe that would change when you are allowed to be untied. Either way you had to escape. But how? It just occurred to that she is not only your kidnapper, but your boss at work too. Perhaps you can report the incident- no, she'd only get angry at you. She'd take you again, and perhaps stay true to the first threat she delivered. Eventually, you came to the conclusion that the best way to escape is to gain her trust, leave, and be reassigned immediately. And resist anything she tried to do to you, just to keep your sanity. You were snapped out of your thinking as you heard a door open, not yours, but the front door, and nothing else. You heard footsteps draw nearer to the door of your room, and the door unlock. She stepped in quietly, perhaps expecting you to be asleep or still unconscious. "Oh, darling you're awake! Did you miss me~?" She asked rhetorically, grinning as she walked closer and knelt down to you. There were a couple of shopping bags in her hand, which she placed down as she got closer to you. "I bought you something, hopefully it'll make up for my actions last night. I hope you won't give me a reason to do something like that again darling, I hate having to hurt you like that. Anyway..." You watched carefully as she dug into the bag, the tissue paper rustling around as she pulled out an some clothes, similar to the ones you were wearing now- your current sweat-covered work clothes. Except, upon further inspection, everything was some sort of designer brand. There had to be a catch, and as she kept digging, there it was. A bright red tie, almost like a collar showing her ownership. In the second bag, she pulled out an outfit similar to what you would wear outside of work. It looked comfortable. "Since you've been so desperate to get away from me, your clothes seemed so sweaty uncomfortable, so I bought you some more. Also, I hope these other clothes suit your liking, so you can feel more at home here! I'll let you change into them if you want, but considering last time, you can't possibly expect me for trust you quite yet, dear. Oh, and I'll let you use the shower, only with my supervision of course~." You nodded, unable to speak. You knew you had to change eventually, and shower. You smelled like a literal corpse. But her going out and buying you designer clothes?! Was she fucking crazy? Well, of course she was crazy, she kidnapped you for fucks sake. "Wow.. th-thank you.." is all you could mutter out, suddenly flinching as a swarm of red hair rushed towards you as Grell kissed your cheek. "You're quite welcome, my love! Now, I suppose you'd like to take a bath, if not I'll have to force you to." She began to untie your ankles, helping you to your feet as she left your hands tied. She walked you to the bathroom with her arm around you, making sure you don't run off again. You fought your urge to resist her, reminding yourself to build up her trust in order to escape. Her attempt to flatter you with the gifts didn't make you completely lose your sanity, but it did help you believe that her feelings for you were in fact genuine. Upon entering the bathroom and closing the door behind her, she untied your wrists. You decided now would be a good time to attempt to earn her trust, as you were finally unbound. "Grell.. look I've decided that, if you leave me untied, I promise I won't run away. I'll stay here, alright?" A high pitched noise erupted from the reaper behind you, and a sudden shock in her face. "Hm? You're asking me to trust you? Wait...you're just trying to make sure I don't see anything, aren't you. I'll turn around-" you cut her off, trying to make yourself seem more genuine. "No, I mean I'm not going to try to escape anymore. Go outside and you'll see. You can trust me." You gave her a small smile, but inside you wanted to vomit at the thought of what you were doing. She looked down at you, her expression softening. Without saying a word, she stepped outside, only opening the door wide enough for her to slip out. She still stood by the doorway, which was alright as long as she was out of the room. You turned on the water, stripped down, and stepped in once it was warm. Only just now did you realize how bad the bruise on your chest was, along with the ones on your arms through your blurred vision. The warm water felt amazing on your sweaty, aching body. You stretched, cracking your back and your neck for once in what felt like a century. You washed up, the soap smelling of roses, the scent she typically carried with her wherever she went. Eventually, you spent so long in there the water began to turn cold, shutting off the water and reaching around for a towel. You dried yourself off and put your glasses back on, looking around for the clothes but they weren't there. "Grell..? Where are the clothes you bought?" You called out, you had no interest in showing the elder reaper any part of your body. The door suddenly opened just a crack, her arm stretched through it and placed the casual clothes on the counter. She must know how much you value your privacy, and respected it. "Thank you.." you called out again as you began putting on the clothes. Holy shit, they were so comfortable. Every piece of clothing including the boxers fit perfectly, as if they were tailor made to fit you. And the material was so soft, it felt so nice against your skin. You stepped out, still smiling at how nice the clothes felt. "My my, you look so incredibly handsome, (y/n)~. Tell me, do the clothes fit alright? If not I'll return them." You nodded, and you watched as her face lit up with joy. "Good, good! Also, I've decided, perhaps in a few days if you prove you can be trusted, I'll allow you to be in a more comfortable room with me. But for now, sadly I must keep you in that prison cell of a room." She led the way back to your room, and you followed close behind. Upon entering the room, it was empty again, the rope that kept your ankles bound before was gone, and there was a stack of paperwork in the middle of the floor, next to it was a plate of food. "My love I hate to keep you like this, I wish so dearly that I could fully trust you to stay with me. There's tomorrow's paperwork, and tonight's dinner. I'll leave you unbound tomorrow, and if you can prove yourself to be trustworthy, I'll let you stay here more comfortably. Is that a deal?" You sighed and nodded, and in reply she kissed the top of your head. "I see. Goodnight, (y/n), I hope to see you keep your promise. And if you don't, well," she let out a low chuckle, her tone turning deep and threatening, "let's just hope that you've learned your lesson last time." She left, closing and locking the door behind her. You sat down, eating your meal that was once again, cooked amazingly. Once you finished, you laid down on the floor, trying to get some sleep.
