Donnie let her go. He wasn't sure how to react to her. If he comforted her, she might think he was coming on to her too hard, or that all he wanted from her was... yeah. If he didn't, he was an ass. He took the last large gulp of his wiskey, letting it burn down all the way before hearing a slight commotion. He wasn't going to let anything happen to Amelia.

He headed the route to their room and saw a man, that was actually quite bigger than himself. Of course Donnie would be much more agile. He knew that the bartender was probably going to step in any time soon, but that didn't mean he couldn't take out some of the rage of this man, on the man.

Donnie grabbed the gruff man's shoulder and pulled him around to face him. "Don't you ever lay a hand on her," he said before letting his fist hit the man evenly in the jaw. He got in a few more hits, and hit himself which didn't feel nice. Shit the man was large.

Then the bartender stepped in like expected and pointed up to their room. "You two chums cut it out and you go up there," He directed to Donnie and Amelia. He took the other guy off and would take care of the rest. Even though most of the women in there were prostitutes or beggars, he didn't stand for abuse so the guy wouldn't be showing his face back there again. Seemed like there were good and bad people in every dimension and time.

Once in the room Donnie turned to Amelia, not worried that he looked a little roughed up. "Are you okay?"

Amelia was out of it for the whole fight. It all felt like a dream. Her face hurt and her head pounded, and her feet didn't want to work very well. But dancing her drunken dance back to their room, she felt more safe, though she was about to pass out.

"thank....you.." The words sounded like they were not of her own. "Help me" She stumbled over to the bed and pointed to the back of her dress. It was suffocating and now with the bloody cheek she had she just didn't want to deal with it any more. "I think i might need a cold compress for my head. Try... no..t...to let me..."And With those words she passed out on the bed, with a small concussion.

[foxotanashi]

Donnie didn't expect her to actually pass out right then. In case she had an actually concussion, he pulled her up into a sitting position and then got a rag that was tossed to the side. At least they had SOME necessities around here. He then got it wet and cold and began to wipe her face off. "Hey, I need you to wake up. You can't go to sleep just yet because it's not safe if your head is damaged," he said shaking her slightly to wake her up.

Donnie then went about his business to get her corset off first, which was a hard task since she was very limp since she had been drinking. Maybe he should have stopped her after the first one after all.

Amelia came to a bit with the shaking. "Don't let me sleep okay?" She felt a bit more awake but not any better. The cold water to her face felt nice and refreshing waking up even more. "Thanks Donnie. For everything...." She was still dizzy and was rocking back and forth, but at least her brain was functioning.

She felt Donnie messing with her dress to try and get the corset off underneath. Her face started to redden but at least the damn thing was going to come off. She leaned forward then back and forth and back trying to make herself still for him, but it wasn't working to well. Once he managed to undue the corset all that she had on was the slip on her bottom half. Her breast completely showing. She tried to hid herself, but with her state she was having troubles. "I'm sorry." The tears decided to come back after all, leaving her feel completely helpless. She feel over into Donnie's lap and started to sob lightly.

[foxotanashi]

Donnie honestly couldn't help that his eyes trailed over her breasts... more than once. Then her arm was covering them for the most part as she fell into his lap, which he was relieved of so he couldn't be counted as more of a perv. She was quite stunning, though.

Finally, Donnie thought she was cleaned up enough and the bits of blood taken away. "I'm sorry," He said as he moved and took off his over coat. He attempted and slightly failed at seeing her breasts again as he moved her and put his coat over her. He then continued and took off the rest of the dress, leaving her in her underwear. If she wanted to keep the dress nice and untattered so they wouldn't have to buy more, he needed to make sure they got at least folded or slung over a near by chair or... anything.

Donnie then sat up on the bed after making sure she was still covered up. "You can sleep after I think your okay. Talk to me Amelia. Why are you crying?"

[whitexsuicide]

Amelia Marie Diederich

Amelia watched as he fixed up her dress and everything else that came with it, leaving her in her boy shorts and his jacket. She felt safe, and weirdly comfortable just sitting there a mess, while Donnie took care of her. Maybe this is what she wanted? The depression though didn't think she could be good enough for a man like him. Her mind argued over the facts and she felt defeated by her own self. It didn't help much she was in an unknown world, where nothing really existed. And her head pounded from a concussion and alcohol.

Once Donnie sat back down and started to talk she felt like she just couldn't tell him what was on her mind. Like he wouldn't like her any more, or would think she was weird for thinking such things about herself. Her tears kept streaming down her face and it was hard for her to control her breathing, but once she worked up the courage to answer his question all he got out of her was an 'I know know'. She felt bad, but all she wanted right then and there was for him to hold her. To maybe tell her she was pretty or everything was going to be okay. But it didn't matter, because she would never tell him to do so and he would most likely never guess to do it on his own. Expressly since they were not together. She started to curl up into a ball letting the jacket just hang off her shoulders. All she could do was cry.

[foxotanashi]

Donnie hadn't dealt with many people in this situation. Most of the time when he was around drunk people there was loud music and laughter and a familiar place. Here at this time and moment was different. She wasn't skimpy, he was actually half way sober, and this place was nothing like home. Amelia kept crying and there wasn't much he thought he could do for her.

Donnie leaned up to look at her. "Hey, hey now, talk to me Amelia. I need to know how your head feels. Do you need anything? I can get you some water to help or... anything," He said. Oddly, he felt helpless when it came to her. God he just wanted to go hunt down that man.

Amelia Marie Diederich

Amelia raised her head from her knees and tried to look at Donnie's face. It was hard for her, for all she saw was how much she was hurting him by doing it, but that only made her feel more bad about the situation, only prolonging the breakdown. Though while she was looking at her face, tear stained, she managed to get some form of words out of her mouth. " Meh head ibt's pounding." Her lip curled up and she began again with the sobs, only being able to return her face to her knees. Why did she have to do this now? She tried to start taking deep breathes to calm her down. It started to work with her inhaling nice breathes and then it started irregular breathes. It wasn't the first time she has had this problem, but she never knew how to fix it. All she could think to do was to lie down and try to breathe right. It made her stop crying and fixate on her breathing, though the jacket was in between her and the bed leaving her breasts wide open. Her mind was else where and didn't much think that she was exposing her entire body to her best friend. the best thing that can happen is if she doesn't remember much in the morning.

[foxotanashi]

Donnie got up off the bed momentarily. "I'm going to get you some water," He said not sure what to do for her. He would also get the rag so when she was done she could wipe her tears away, if she wanted.

Donnie didn't want Amelia feeling so down. He knew he could break her concentration but decided against that road to go down right now. He sat back down on the bed after getting both things. He put the water next to the bed on the floor on her side so she could get it whenever. He also showed her the rag and set it there to. Donnie then got the jacket on her right again and let his arm fall around her small, sad body.

[whitexsuicide]

Amelia Marie Diederich

Amelia watched as he left once more to get water. It was starting to get harder to breath. No matter how many times she would inhale or exhale it just felt like it wasn't enough. Donnie fixed the Jacket right to go over her chest and rested one of his arms across her. Her breathing slowed and became normal again. The tears stopped as well. From what happened that day she was tired and about ready to pass out. She turned on her one side to get more comfortable and cuddled up next to Donnie. She felt safe and she felt like she was were she needed to be. She nuzzled her head into his chest, relaxing, forgetting everything that had crossed her mind earlier and started to fall asleep.

[foxotanashi]

Donnie noticed a dramatic difference in her rhythmic breathing as she fell asleep. She seemed like she would be fine and the concussion wasn't anything big to worry about or he wouldn't have allowed her to sleep. He moved her hair slightly out from in her face before moving himself away from her. Donnie wasn't quite ready to sleep just yet. The conversations he heard earlier still stung his mind.

Donnie made sure he didn't wake her. He then... kissed her forehead before heading out. He wasn't sure what had compelled him to do so, but it's not like she would ever know or remember. Donnie recalled his mother doing it for him when he was sick as a child.

Once downstairs the bartender raised his eyes to Donnie's. Surprisingly a lot of people had filed out of the place and it was getting more and more empty. Apparently they didn't want to be in the drama that went down, or needed to get back to their families or wives. Sitting at the bar, Donnie acknowledged the issue. "Sorry about... that,"

"Eh, not much a problem, Chap. I've seen much worse in my time around here. I just don't like women beaters is all. It's a bloody shame men actually lower themselves to that level," the bartender said. "You need something?"

Donnie shrugged and sighed before answering. "A place to stay, and information if you can give it," He watched the man's reaction as he told the semi-truth and the guy cleaned a few glasses. He really hoped this worked out for him and Amelia. Donnie needed to keep her safe and this place wasn't bad.

"Fin," The man said.

Donnie questioned the man on what he meant as a few more people left and one came in.

"That's my name. You need my name if either of you plan to do work around this place to earn your stay. As for information, what do you need?"

Donnie smiled and thanked the ma- Fin, and began getting the information he needed.

[whitexsuicide]

Amelia Marie Diederich

Amelia started to wake up when Donnie was moving away from her, but she kept everything under control. She wanted to grab on to him and not let him go but she was not about ready to make him stay because of her. She didn't ever want him to worry in the first place. She acted like she was still asleep and moved a bit making herself comfortable, when it happened. He kissed her forehead. Her cheeks get a bit redder, and she was able to hid the grin that wanted to show so badly. Once Donnie left the room she was able to fall back in the sleep she once was in. Slowly drifting into the dream world.

[foxotanashi]

Donnie stayed down in the pub area for a good hour or so longer, discussing things with Fin. Apparently Fin had been married once before, but his wife had died and they never had any children because she couldn't have them. The distant look on his face as he explained it was saddening, but he didn't want any pity. After her death, he needed something to keep him going, so he bought this building and created it into a pub and inn. It was something his wife would have liked to do, given more time with the living.

Donnie learned a lot about Fin, but also about the mysterious red headed beauty. Nobody knew her name or where she came from. All anyone knew was that she popped up about a month before they did and also had on some really funny clothing and spoke with an off accent, much like theirs. She got in with a group of alchemists, which in the case now were somewhat like outlaws. They believed differently and done... magical type things in the night, or so people thought and said. They were finally apprehended and thrown in the brig, to be tried later that week.

After learning all he needed to and agreeing for them to work to stay, Donnie headed back up to the room and layed in bed after taking off his shirt and shoes. He wasn't going to take off his pants, even if they did get a little wrinkled. He wouldn't want Amelia waking up and thinking thoughts about what might have happened, assuming she couldn't remember.

He dozed off fairly quickly.

[whitexsuicide]

Amelia Marie Diederich

Amelia woke only a little when Donnie came back up, to fall asleep. She got to see him take off his shirt. She blushed then dozed off again.

A loud bang on the door woke up Amelia. Her head still hurt, but some of it dulled down and the little bit of light that shown through the windows, burned her eyes. She sat rolled over to see if Donnie was there, and he was. She started to shake him to make sure he was awake when she realized she didn't have a shirt on. She immidently stopped shaking him. It was the first time she wanted to wear that cursed corset.

Other bang on the door followed by Fin's voice. "I am coming in in a minute, if some one does not answer the door!" Amelia's attention went to the door at this moment. "Just a minute, then!" Fussed around trying to find her bag, it had her normal clothes in it. It took some time but she finally found it and put on her dress. She opened the Door only to find the bartender there. "Yes?" She put on a big smile, welcoming him in the morning. "Did he not say a word to you? You have work to do!" He handed her, her new outfit. "You will be my new maid. You will clean all of the rooms and anything else that may need it, like these halls.." He smiled. "Well the cleaning supplies are in the closet down the hall. Once he wakes up tell him he needs to wear this and get that job done." Amelia nodded. Fin closed the door after those words, so she could get dressed in her new outfit. She put Donnie's clothes on the bed next to him.

She grabbed her normal underwear and went behind the screen. She started to undress so she could wear her new outfit. AS she started to get undressed and redressed her mind wondered through what had happened last night. She remembered up to the part she was about getting rape. She shuddered. She was happy Donnie was there to save her, though she was a bit sad to not remember how her clothes got off. She did remember Donnie coming back and taking off her shirt, so she knew that at least it wasn't that they had sex, not like she won't mind having sex with Donnie she would at least like to remember it.
The outfit when finally got it on was a simple outfit that was much easier to get on then the other one. The only thing that tighten was the small corset that went on the outside of everything. She was happy it wasn't complicated like her other outfit. She walked out from behind the screen to show Donnie. "So? How do i look?". She smiled hoping that he didn't remember last night either.

Donnie groaned a little bit as he stretched and got up. Luckily his head didn't hurt but alcohol didn't effect him like he knew it did Amelia. He wasn't going to tell her that he remembered everything that had happened. He thought she probably wouldn't want to talk about it for a while.

As Amelia spoke up his attention turned to her. "Lovely as always," He said and smiled. Was he flirting, at a time like this, in a PLACE like this. Oh yeah, now this was something every female wanted. Donne actually chuckled at himself as he tossed his feet over the bed.

Donnie then went about getting his own clothes on, and his other pants off. The outfit was a bit big for him which led on to that it might have been Fin's a while back. After dressing, not really being shy that Amelia was in the same room, he turned to her. "I have information on a particular red head," He said happily. "I'll tell you more about it after we get our jobs done. We have to make this work so we have a place to live and all that,"

Donnie then layed his other clothes on the bed and headed downstairs to work at the bar.

This, but more drab xD Aaand suspenders, no jacket.

[whitexsuicide]

Amelia Marie Diederich

When Amelia heard his words it caught her off guard, he never said anything like that before. She was speechless until he started to laugh at himself. Her face started to redden as she realized that it was stupid of her to think that he would actually like her.

She saw that he started to take off his pants and she quickly turned around. She didn't want see anything she wasn't ready for. She perked to his information on a red head. "Did you find her where abouts, yet?" he answered her question with pretty much with a later. "Okay, but you better tell me, alright?" She gave him a smile. Living with him didn't seem like such a bad idea in her mind. Just no more drinking. "Let's get this done with for today. I'm not looking forward to cleaning those sheets." She gave him smile, and followed him out the door. She locked the room and kept the key. "Let me know when you are finished ok. I'll be in one of these rooms up here."

She went to the closet and grabbed a bucket, broom, and a scrub brush. "Let's get this over with." She said in a small soft voice. She went to the first room, which was number one. She knocked. "Room service!" No one answered. She tried to open the door and it worked. It was unlocked. She took a look around the room, which was empty, to see what had to be done. It was a one bed room, just like the one they were staying in, but much dirty. "I guess i should get started." She sighed, going into the bathroom, which was even worst then the room with the bed in it. She filled the bucket up with water adding a touch of soap from the soap bar in the room.
She started with the bathroom and worked her way to out to the bed room. The bathroom sparkled and with that she emptied the dirty water down the drain. At least they had some sort of plumbing. She left the bucket empty so she could put the trash into it. Once all the bottles and other things were picked up, she swept up the room. Next was the sheets. Pulling everything off carefully so she didn't get anything on her. The room was finished. She went out to the hall, seeing how many more rooms she had to clean. To her luck there was only six and number four was their room, which she knew didn't need to be cleaned. She started on the next few rooms which were all empty, gathering all the sheets together. She soon knew she would have to clean them manually. She sighed once more but kept doing her job, until she got to the last two rooms, which is when her stomach started to bother her. She had no dinner last night and now no breakfast. She put on new sheets in the three rooms and went down stairs to maybe get some type of food.

She brushed off the sweat on her forehead. "Do we have anything to eat I am starving!" She sat down in front of the bar and stared up at Donnie. He looked nice in his work outfit.
