Even if he heard her heart beating he did not let on that he could hear anything. Mariah did not seem to be in the mood to say much so he did not say anything either. As he walked he held her so that she could easily lay her head on his chest and clearly hear his heart beating, it was probably beating just as fast as her's. When they reached her car he unlocked it, opened the door and set her gently down on the driver's seat. Before handing her her crutches he lent down and kissed her softly on the lips. It wasn't a trashy kiss, it was the kind of kiss that said everything that he had told the nurse in the hospital. it said 'I LIKE you and i hope you Like me back'.

*Mariah did rest her head on his chest for a moment but quickly lifted it again as she realized what she did. As he set her down in her car and leaned down to kiss her, it said everything she had wondered about for the past few weeks. This was the first time she let herself truly accept the kiss as she closed her eyes and reached a hand up to gently touch his face. Her heart beat faster still and she was the one to pull away and looked into his eyes.* "Thank you..." She said and then blushed a little. "For the lift." She finished and blushed a little more.*

"It was a pleasure M'Lady"
For the briefest moment Liam's accent shifted to something that was very familiar to Mariah on a subconscious level. As she touched his face he smiled and lent into her touch and then took her hand in his and kissed it just like they do in the movies. His accent shifted back again
"see you tomorrow?"

*She felt so warm and comfortable with him in this moment and as his accent shifted, she felt a sort of jolt inside of her. Before she could decipher what it could mean, he spoke again and she smiled. "sure" She said and she shut her door and drove off. Tomorrow was a half day of school and then the charity auction. She knew just what she would have to do.
Driving up to the bingo hall, she of course saw her grandma's car. She hobbled herself inside with her crutches and found her grandma at one of the tables. "Grandma...I need money. Fast." Her grandma raised her eyes in shock to see her granddaughter not only here but saying such words. After Mariah explained about the auction to her, then she took Mariah by the hand and said "well now this isn't the place for a lot of money and fast. Come dear..."
They left Mariah's car there and together they headed to the local casino. It wasn't until 2 am and way too many drinks for grandma later that they finally returned home. Mariah reaked of cigarettes and booze, but she had what she needed. She slumped her exhausted self onto her bed only after dragging grandma to her bed first. Soon she found herself in a deep sleep. Sleep filled with dreams of people she could not see the faces of, but were very familiar to her. They wore strange clothes as if from another time and they held each other tight as a warm glow seemed to envelope them.*

After Mariah drove Liam headed home, he had chores to do, though fortunately he did not have to make a repeat performance of what he had to do in the field. After diner he went to bed and had strange dream of a man and a woman from another time which was interrupted by morning. It was indeed a half day of school, football practice was canceled to make room for any fun and games that the cheerleaders had planed for after the charity auction. Which Liam was told by several other guys on the football team was usually some kind of foot race though it was not uncommon for some of the girls to bet items of their slave's clothing on the outcome of the event. He was reliably informed that the bets where usually just your toga. Though he was also warned that the town did turn a blind eye to the school's charity auction from time to time. Liam was not allowed to wear his usual clothes to school today considering it was the day of the charity auction, every boy who had signed up had received strict instructions that he was to wear the outfit that he was given at Football practice on Thursday. The outfits that each boy was given comprised of a toga, a pair of short shorts and a thong. They were also told that this was all that they were allowed to wear for the entire weekend. Liam dressed quickly and made sure to be out of the house before his aunt or uncle got back from church. Liam thought the Toga wasn't that bad just so long as he did not have to bend over or pick anything up because the shorts he had on really did not leave that much to the imagination. When he got to school Liam did his best to hide but there was more then a few catcalls from the cheerleaders and other girls who were trying to see as many of the boys in their togas before the auction.

* Mariah was quite tired but nothing a cappuccino from her favorite coffee shop couldn't fix. When she got to school, she knew it was going to be a crazy kind of day. Guys were posing through the halls, girls taking pictures with their phones, teachers intervening with not much success. She saw Britney and rolled her eyes as she again was practically throwing herself on one of the football players. She tried to find Liam, but had no luck. She went to her locker, today she would hopefully be told she could take off her cast as she had a doctor's appointment after school. She fumbled with the crutches and she tried to get her books out and find her project for her next class. She heard catcalls echoing throughout the halls and when the bell rang, she was grateful for it meant a temporary pause in all of the chaos.*

Liam ended up hiding in the library and for the most part was successful because most of the girls who hid in the taxi might not have been so overtly boy crazy as certain members of the cheer leading team that he was hiding from. he groaned slightly when he heard the bell ring as it meant there was a very real chance that he was going to have to deal with Britney as both she and Mariah where in all of the classes that he had today. When he finally made it to class he gave Mariah a 'sorry i was hiding' look as he made his way to his seat behind her.

*Her eyes widened as she saw him in his outfit and felt her cheeks grow warm as she smiled and gave him a "I don't blame you" look. She was glad he was sitting behind her, and Penny was already sitting behind him. That meant Britney could not be too close to him, though she definitely tried. She tried to concentrate as she could sense him behind her. Ever since that kiss, and the way he spoke to her yesterday, and then that dream. She was swarmed with emotion and confusion. The classes came and went and soon the last class was approaching, art class. She was looking forward to it because not only was it her favorite class, but she would be working on the project ideas with Liam.*

He knew that he had feelings for her that went past the usual high school hookup, or at least he was pretty sure that what was going on in his head, though he could have also sworn that she looked like that girl in his dream from last night. When he saw her eyes widen he was glad he had a handle on his composure otherwise it would have made the situation with the thong he had to wear a whole lot worse. He was thankful that Penny was the kind of friend to Mariah that she was or at least it seemed that she was running interferance between Liam and Britney so at least during class time he did not have to deal her. Even though Britney had more a few occasions tried to get Liam to bend over and pick up pens, pencils or books over the course of the day. Last class before the auction and a possibly hellish weekend if Britney managed to buy him was art. he thought that he might of had a couple of ideas of movies that they could use but he wasn't sure as he sat down just behind Mariah.

Mariah sat quietly at her desk at first, drawing as best as she could from memory thr image from her dream last night. She coukd sense Liam behind her and when the teacher instructed the class to get in their groups, she turned around and motioned for Liam to join her at the spot beside her. She hadnt shut her sketchbook yet and she smiled at him as he moved to her. She could feel eyes on them and looked to see Britney watching them. She gave Mariah the meanest look...realizing now that Lism and Mariah were partners for the project. Mariah turned away and looked back to Liam. "So how uncomfortable are you in that thing?" she asked with a smirk as she loomed at his outfit again. Then she changed the subject. "So any ideas for this project. Right now I vould draw you as Ceaser in that toga of yours...." she teased. She realized that would mean she would have to be a character from the same movie. Not sure if a toga woumd be appropriate for her after all.*

Liam pretended that he did not see the exchange across the class room between Mariah and Britney as he sat down opposite her. He thought for a second when she asked him about his costume, did she need to know everything about the costume? well odds where that she did know all ready and if she didn't there was a chance she would find out over the course of the weekend
"The toga isn't to bad. Though i don't think i'll get used to this thong"
He blushed when he said that last part, he couldn't look her in the eyes and found himself staring at her chest for a moment which only caused him to blush even more. When the colour finally returned to his face he answered her question about the project and rattled off a few movie titles
"we could try Romeo and Juliet, The Notebook or even Titanic"

*She looked around the room. There were mostly people paired up same sex. The few guys paired together, doing football movies most likely so they could draw each other in their team uniforms. Girls with their best friends, and so on. They were one of the only pairs that were of opposite sex and that meant their drawings could very likely be from a movie of the romantic genre. She giggled and blushed as he said he was wearing a thong and tried not to let her mind dwell on that too long. When Liam gave his suggestions for movies, she pondered for a moment. Titanic would be...well...she knew how Rose in the movie posed...so that was a little out of the comfort zone. She decided on classic. "Romeo and Juliet". She said and smiled with a faint blush to her cheeks. It was, after all, one of her favorite stories.* "I think it would be good." *She was definitely blushing now and nervousness began to take over as she pondered scenes they could draw.*

Liam really had not noticed any of the other groups he was giving all his attention to Mariah though he could feel Britney's eyes seemingly burning a hole in the back of his head. He looked at her and could sense that she was thinking about each of the movies individually, he reached out and touched her hand
"I could always play the part of rose if you prefer ... " he joked and then quickly added "but the balcony scene from R + J would be better"
Liam was filled with a sense of dread when it was finally the end of the class because he knew what was about to happen. He got up out of his chair before Britney had the chance to come over and sit in his lap.

*Mariah stayed kind of close to Liam, as if in a way, protecting what she wanted to be hers. She had to leave soon though to go to the doctor and hoped for good news once she got there. She knew the guys would be getting ready for the auction, going to the meeting and learning the rules before hand. She waved to Liam as she left for her appointment and luckily it was a short one. The doctor again was amazed at how quickly she was healing and not only could she go without a cast, but she could stop using crutches altogether. She would simply have to wear a brace part of her leg whilst doing activities that could potentially re-injure it. She rushed back to her house after so she could change. She figured she would have just enough time to change, gather her things, and be back in time for the auction at 4. She couldn't believe she was getting so worked up over this auction, but every moment she felt a stronger connection with Liam and the thought of anyone else, especially Britney, spending alone time with him in his outfit, well it bothered her. She changed into a red skirt with black lace along the bottom and along the open slit that went up her uninjured leg, hiding the brace she now wore. Her top was a black laced corset type tank top. Not too revealing, but just a tad bit of cleavage. She saw the necklace on the dresser still in the box. She pondered for a moment and grabbed it, tucking it into her purse for now. She also grabbed the envelope she had filled from last night's festivities with her grandma, who, of course, was nowhere around. She fixed her hair so it was in a messy type bun on the top of her head, stray hairs escaping and flowing gently down her cheeks. She headed back out the door and to her car when she saw someone waiting for her at her car. It was Britney. Complete with the shortest skirt she could possibly get away with at a school function, and a shirt so low cut that if it weren't for the black laced bra peeking out, all of her ladies would be falling out entirely. "What do you want Britney?" Mariah asked, not really meaning to sound so rude but at the same time she knew that this was not a kind social call. "I'm here to talk about what I want Mariah. You know damn well what it is I want...or rather...who." She said with a look that could surely kill. "What is the deal with you and Liam? I thought you weren't interested. I thought you and Joel were getting back together and now all of a sudden everywhere I turn I see you and Liam. What the hell? You knew how I felt about him." Mariah was a little shocked and caught of guard by this and stepped back a moment before she spoke. "First of all, there is no me and Joel. I have told you and everyone else that for awhile now. He is a jerk and I want nothing to do with him. Second, me and Liam...well we are just hanging out right now. No we are not "together", but we are enjoying spending time with each other. I like him. I'm not going to lie to you and Britney, I had no idea how you felt about him because you act the same way around him as you do all of the other guys. Kind of hard to tell that you have any true feelings at all." Mariah knew that was harsh, but she was sick of tip toeing and faking her feelings around people like Britney. Britney turned a shade of red as her anger built up inside of her. "So what, I'm a slut? So I like the guys. They like me. I'm having fun and I like getting what I want. I WILL get what I want." She warned as she stepped away from Mariah's vehicle and walked to her own. "Good luck today. You'll need it. At least I'm not afraid to offer what guys truly want." She said as she slipped in her car. Mariah growled under her breath and got into her car. She took a different way to school so as not to have any more run ins with Britney, especially the way she drove crazy on the roads. When she arrived at the school, there were so many people already parked in the lot that she had no choice but to park on the grass. She hurried inside and saw that there was barely any spot to stand, let alone sit. She made her way as close as she could to the stage in the auditorium and just in time for the lights to dim and the spot line to shine on an alumnist football player and cheerleader, the king and queen of the prom last year, to make the introductions and tell all about the rules.* "These boys are not here for your sexual pleasures ladies, but shall be treated respectfully as someone accompanying you on an innocent date and doing some appropriate chores." The cheerleader said. "Oh is that how it was with us?" The football alumnist asked with a wink and took her hand. She blushed and they proceeded to go on with the rules about how the money would go to the school, there was to be no undergarments thrown to the guys, no removal of undergarments by the guys to try to get higher bids, etc. Finally the show was to begin and the catcalls grew louder and the chaos grew as one by one, football players came out, did their sexy poses, and got their bids. As high as $300 so far and this made Mariah nervous.*

Liam's heart sank a little bit at the end of Art Class, he had heard something about Mariah having a doctor's appointment today and when he saw her heading for the door's at the front of the school, part of him wanted to give her a kiss for good luck. But he knew at least at the moment especially before this charity auction was something that was going to come back and bite him in the ass. There was indeed a lecture of the rules for the weekend of servitude that was to come for the entire football team. Liam was really looking forward to this weekend so much so that he had over the course of the lecture what could be described as an out of body experience or more accurately a moment that at least for awhile seemed like a conversation with an adult in a Peanuts cartoon. Liam did not hear all of the rules that the principal was telling him but by the time the lecture ended he was pretty sure that he got the general idea of what they are. The money raised was going to the school and the whole thing was supposed to be fun and a possible source of amusement for the female population of the school and the town. There was to be no sex between a minor and an adult and a minor and a female high school student could not force her slave to have sex with her if he did not think that he was ready for that kind of thing. The final rule was that if a slave lost an article of clothing for whatever the reason over the course of the weekend he would not get it back unless his Mistress decided to give it back to him. The lecture seemed to go on forever and once the lecture was over the boys drew ping pong balls from a hat to find out in what order that they would be sold off in, Liam breathed a sigh of relief as he got one of the highest numbers meaning that he was going to be one of the last boys on the auction. Liam stayed near the back of the stage when the auction started and watched as other members of the football team got sold off. Finally it was his turn.
