You are a disgrace!

This morning was different. It was the same room, but things had clearly changed. On the stool in the corner was now placed a piece of paper and a regular pencil, no eraser. On the open door to the bathroom now hung three outfits on a clothes hanger: A yellow summer dress, a white blouse with a salmon skirt and a big, cream-colored sweater with burgundy tights. Underneath were three choices of shoes: Black, sleek heels, white flats with a small, red bow on top, or red sneakers. In addition to all this, clean female's underwear, white briefs and a skin-colored, strapless bra, was laid out on the sink in the bathroom. It was more than what was asked for, but Megara could really use it, and if Madge were to do something, she didn't want to do it half-way. In John's pocket he would notice a small note with a single word. It didn't say much, but the message was clear: "Deal."

John woke up in the room again. Feeling cold on the floor, and stiff. He stood up and stretched for a while. Then noticing the pen and paper on the stool. John then looked around the room to see if there was anything else and could see the clothes hanging in the bathroom. He couldn't help but to smirk. So someone was listening. And they had given him what he wanted. Somehow satisfied and pleased with it he stuck his hands in his pockets, finding a piece of paper he had not seen in there before. Just a simple note with a neat handwriting. Slightly feminine he would wager. He smirked and stuck the paper back into his pocket. He would toss it out later when he had a chance. But now he would have to get cracking on the will. John sat down on the floor and started to think of what he was going to leave for whom. He thought firs who would take care of his mother. Naming at least five people in case. Then stating to whom he would leave the bar to care for. Trying to work fast and efficient so he wouldn't have to answer Meg's questions. He signed the paper and then folded it in half and slid it under the door. Putting the pen in his pocket for future use. This might not be the last note he would be getting, and he just might have to respond back one day.

Megara sat up and stretched, she was still trying to get over the nightmare of what had happened earlier on. She froze though when she saw the clothes draped over the stool, "Um John where did those come from?" She asked curiously as she glanced over at him. Each one of the clothes seemed lovely and she was silently eager to try them all on. However she couldn't help but wonder why they were in their room, it seemed extremely unlike their captor. She had a sinking feeling that maybe it was leading up to something far worse, but she couldn't begin to imagine just what that was. Her hair had come slightly undone from her braid and she sighed before she pulled her hair free and ran her fingers through it to work the tangles out. It also didn't make sense as to why she had gotten clothes but John hadn't, and that feeling came back stronger then before.

John shrugged and smiled to her. "I don't know. I just woke up and they were there." He said leaning against the wall. "Maybe the person who kidnapped us decided that you would be more comfortable with clothes on." He said smiling warmly to her. "Go on and try them on." He said encouraging her towards the bathroom.

Meg raised an eyebrow at that but John seemed honest enough, and really she should be grateful that at least now she had clothes to wear. She unbuttoned the shirt that John had given her and handed it to him with a small smile, "Well thank you for giving me your shirt, it was very kind of you." She said and on impulse kissed him on the cheek before she hurried off into the bathroom. Over the sink was a bra and some clean underwear, she felt extremely relieved at that. While the bra was plain in appearance, it was far better then the nightgown she had been relegated too for so long. She took the clothes off of the hook and shut the door behind her before she took off her nightgown. Then she took the bra and tried it on, it was a perfect fit and she felt relieved at that. At least whoever had kidnapped them knew what they were doing. She tried on the underwear next before she studied her clothing options. The sundress seemed to beckon to her and before she could change her mind she moved to get it on. The dress fit her well and she let out a relieved sigh, it felt nice to be able to wear something that actually covered most of the essentials. And on top of that it was so cute, she felt better already. It was amazing what a change of clothes could do to improve her mood. She pulled on the flats last before she stepped out of the bathroom. "So what do you think?" She asked before she gave a little twirl so the dress billowed around her form.

The kiss on his cheek was unexpected. Throwing him off for a moment. But then smiling. She was just excited about the clothes. No need to read too much into it right? She wasn't falling in love with him or anything. John waited patiently for her to come out. Dressing his shirt back on. It already smelled of her. He brought his sleeve up to his nose, taking a deep inhale. There wasn't any hint of a perfume anymore, just all natural smells. But by no means it wasn't anything off putting. Kind of pleasant and subtle. She then came out and did a little twirl. "Oh yeah, that looks good on you." He said looking at her from head to toe. "Yellow really suits your hair colour."

Meg smiled at him and ducked her head shyly at his words, "You're too kind, but thank you." She said and then bit down on her bottom lip as she studied him. "I'll miss wearing your shirt though-I mean...it was nice." She said and wished she could sink through the floor, he must think she was being silly. "I wonder why you didn't get a change of clothes...I mean I know I didn't have much on, but surely you could have gotten something." She said feeling a little upset that John wouldn't be able to have a change of clothes himself. "At least now I'm not going to be practically naked." She added eventually with a hint of relief. While she was bothered by the fact that John didn't get to have the same opportunity as her at least now she didn't feel like she was on display. She moved to sit on the stool, the dress sliding up at her movement but Meg didn't really mind. Her eyes landed on the breakfast tray next to the door and moved to pick it up. "And there's still breakfast." She said eventually as she set the tray on the stool before she grabbed a blueberry muffin off of it. She poured herself a cup of orange juice preferring it to the coffee that was also on the tray. Her eyes flicked up as she studied John out of the corner of her eye, he was a kind man and not once while she had been in her nightie had he ever made a move on her. Of course he had checked her out, but she couldn't blame him after all the nightgown had been skimpy and hadn't left much to the imagination. Most people would have tried taking advantage as Meg knew, so the fact that he hadn't raised her opinion of him. And he had even given her his shirt which had smelled rather nice and comforting.

"My need for new clothes wasn't as dire as yours. There might be people here who would not be so nice to just look at you." He simply stated and shrugged his shoulders like it wasn't a big deal. Going to the plate and taking his muffin and his cup of coffee. John moved to the sleeping bag and placed his breakfast on the floor to wait and rolled the sleeping bag up to a roll and then laid down on the carpet and supported his back against the sleeping bag. Taking a big bite of his muffin and a good sip of the strong black coffee that was getting colder. But then again he had heard from somewhere it was good for you. "Perhaps the one who kidnapped us saw you in the flimsy clothes and got jealous that now you are sharing a room with a guy." He teased her with a little flirt.

Meg nodded knowing that this was indeed true, it had been a huge concern for her after all. "Thank you for that by the way, I know it probably wasn't easy. I'm still a-" She broke off as she glanced down at her muffin suddenly not feeling quite so hungry. So far she had been extremely lucky as far as her room mates were concerned, but Meg knew that might not always be the case. Who knew who else was trapped here, and she knew it was good to always be cautious. "I've never been in a relationship before, I've had too many try and exploit me." She wasn't even sure why she was telling him all this, "All because of the fame I guess." She shrugged then and tugged on the ends of her hair nervously. She did however manage a small smile at John's flirtatious remark. "Or maybe it was for the opposite reason, you are quite handsome after all." She pointed out as she nudged him with her elbow. "You don't have an overly jealous girlfriend now do you?" She asked teasingly, although she was curious to know if John was taken. It would be just her luck if he was married or engaged for that matter.

He just nodded at her when she thanked him. Noticing it that she cut her sentence short, probably realizing that he was a frail woman in a place that hosted some men too. And people could be monsters here too. "Well you are a very beautiful woman. That scares the good guys away and lures the rotten ones closer." He said, knowing full well how men thought. Then grinning. "No, I don't have a girlfriend. I never manage to keep one it seems." He joked.

Meg frowned, didn't she know the truth of that statement? After all she had had a stalker by the age of nineteen, fresh out of high school and just barely getting into her modeling career. Remembering all those moments with that terrible man made her stomach twist into knots. She had been lucky, the police had gotten him before he could really do a whole lot with her. Meg still had the nightmares though and she had a feeling she probably always would. If Jim hadn't been with her that night so many years ago, Meg dreaded to think about what would have happened. She'd probably have been reported missing, and then turned up weeks later dead in some alley. Thinking of Jim made her remember the game and she hoped Jim was recovering. He hadn't handled the game well at all, but then who would? The person who had them was sick, and didn't seem to care what happened to them. "No girlfriend huh? That's a shame, you seem like quite the catch." She said when he brought up how he was single. She was honestly surprised but a part of her was slightly pleased at the thought. It would make flirting with him a lot easier as long as she didn't have to worry about treading in on someone else's boyfriend.

John gave out a little laugh and then looked at the black coffee swirling in his cup. He found it a bit awkward to talk about his past relationships to anyone. Because he knew just how well and thoroughly he had fucked them up. "Yeah. I am quite the catch until I somehow end up sabotaging my relationships somehow." He said taking a sip of the coffee. He never was going to hide it though that he was a fuck up. He thought of it that the women he was with deserved to know what they were getting into.

Meg bit down on her bottom lip and then set her glass of orange juice back on the tray before she moved to sit next to John. "I'm sure that's not the case with all of them." She pointed out as she glanced over at him. "Besides relationships are hard, or so I've heard...I'm a terrible person to talk too about relationships. Since I have zero experience, but one thing I do know is that I think you're a nice guy. Most people would've taken advantage of my previous state of undress. You gave me your shirt, and you haven't once made a move on me...which is more then what most other people would have done at this point. I've been really impressed by that fact alone." She said and leaned over to kiss him on the cheek. He looked like he needed a little pick-me-up and since there was no booze, the least she could do would be to try and lift his spirits somewhat.

John stayed silent for a while. He wanted to tell her that oh he knew that he was the reason all his girlfriends had dumped him. Perhaps one day he would. When she moved next to him he put his arm around her out of habit. A warm female body right by his side and his arm automatically knew how to wrap around her shoulders. "That is because I was raised well by my mother. I she taught me that it is better to be a gentleman than a pig." He told her and looked her in the eye. Seeing her lean closer and kiss him he thought. Not needing more encouragement than that he leaned closer too and connected his lips with hers. Kissing her gently.

Meg hadn't been expecting John to move and as a result her lips parted easily as he caught her lips with his. Her eyes widened but she didn't pull away, he was a very good kisser after all and she whimpered before she pulled back. "I...I didn't...you're a really good kisser." She mumbled, as she ducked her head to avoid looking at him directly. Her body trembled just the slightest bit, and she vaguely wondered what it would be like to keep kissing him. First Octavia and now John...she really must have a thing for blondes she thought with her blush becoming more pronounced by the second. She glanced up at him from under her lashes and nearly whimpered again when she saw his kiss swollen lips. She suddenly wanted those lips on hers once again and she let out a shaky sigh as she kept her gaze focused downward determined not to reveal just how much she was currently struggling by giving into her desires.
