The Steel Star

chapter 5

My eyes eased open as I tried to shake off my drowsiness.

I was in the same bed as I was before.

"Your awake?" My head turned to meet the eyes of Kayla. She was seated on a chair.

"Yes." I replied.

"How are you feeling?"

"I'm still in a little bit of pain."

"You will be in pain for a while. I cleaned you off, So the doctor could see you. but don't worry, I only cleaned your arms and legs. I thought that you would want to rinse yourself off."

"Yes. Thank You."

"Are you sure your okay?"

I wanted to scream at her. To tell her that I'm never going to be okay, but I couldn't bring myself to admit it. They have already taken care of me. I can't let them think of me as a burden and throw me back to The Master.

"I'm okay. Thank You for asking."

She gave me a look, like she didn't believe me. Who would?

"Okay. Well do you need anything?"

"No, but thank you."

"No problem."

She stood up and walked out of the room. But before she left she said, "There is a shower in the room over their. Let me know if you need anything ."

Then she left.

Taking a shower? I think the only time I took a shower was just after I was captured. The Master wanted me to look nice when he showed me to his family.

I stood up and went to the two doors, knowing one of them was the bathroom.

I opened the door closest to the bed to find a walk in closet, and it was stuffed with clothes. How many clothes does one person need? The room was about the size of my cell. But it looked much nicer then my prison.

I quickly dismissed the thought, not wanting to panic again.

The next door held the bathroom and it was almost the size of the bedroom. It also held some of the same colors.

The walls were white and the floor was tiled. The sink was marbled white, as was the bathtub and shower. The bathtub had jets. I bet that felt nice. The shower was closed in by glass walls.

Even though a bath sounded nice, I decided to take a fast shower. I didn't know how long they would let me stay in here.

I started the water and undressed. I stepped in and let the warm water wash over me. I have never taken a hot shower.

Washing quickly, I got out and realized the clothes I had were not going to work. They were brown rags, and there were torn in every place possible.

I wrapped the white, fluffy towel around me and peaked through the door.

Dezmond was no where to be seen.

The door completely opened and a stack of clothing caught my eye.

I picked it up and quickly put it on. It was a pretty blue dress. The blue fabric flowed to my knees and the straps crossed on my back.

Why would they let me wear something so beautiful?

"Hey I came to see if you we-" Dezmond entered and stopped mid sentence as his eyes caught sight of me.

Oh no. He doesn't like it.

I quickly grabbed the end of the dress and started pulling it off. Not caring about him seeing me. The Master saw me plenty of times, and I rather have this off then him beating me.

"Hey! What are you doing!" Dezmond had ran to my side, pulling dress down.

"You don't like it." I replied and tried to pull it off again.

"What! We're did you get that idea from. Would you stop!"

I let go of the dress, for two reasons. 1 he was mad, and 2 my hands were shaking to bad to hold it up.

"Thank you." He sighed

"I should go pick out another dress."

"No. You look perfect. Why would you need to change?"

"I thought you didn't like it."

"your right I don't,"

My eyes started to tear up as I glanced to the ground.

His finger then slid under my chin and gently made me look at him

"I love it."

My heart beat increase. As my eyes whipped to his, looking for any sign to let me know he lied.

My search ended fairly quickly. He was telling the truth.

How could someone love this beautiful dress on an ugly girl. I bet I made the dress look dead and wilted.

"Come on. I want you to meet everybody."

My blood ran ice cold.

Would they like me? Would they beat me? Was that were I was really going? Did Dezmond dress me up like this because he was going to take me back? If not, then why would he want to show me to these people?

"You'll love them. I promise. They are nice people, and they won't hurt you. I'll be there with you the whole time."

So sorry about keeping you guys waiting!

I have had major writers block.

I know what your thinking, how could you get bad writers block with only writing one story.

Well, this isn't the only one I'm writing. I have two on wattpad but I have many more that I haven't even put on here. I have about 7 or 8 that I am currently working on.

So sorry for this chapter for being so short. I decided to not keep you guys waiting.

I'll try to post the next chapter (which will hopefully be better) soon!
