Bella found herself sitting at a table drowning herself in beer. They had only gotten back to the motel about an hour ago and she already down 6 whole large glasses and changed outfits. 

"whoa, maybe you outta take it easy." Maco said sitting across from her.

"Are you alright?" he asked surprised as he realized that tears were streaming down her face. 

"im fine" Bella said coldly. She didn't mean to be so cold, but the events of the day chilled her to the bone.

She had not only been attacked, but also saved by a man that she just could not stand. 

The doors to the motel came flying open and bounded off the walls.

Everyone was quiet as they turned and looked over. 

"Hey there pretty lady." Sting said ask he struts in to the motel. 

"what are you doing here?" Erza asked meeting him half way across the floor. 

"This beauty here owes me" Sting said as he reached over cuffing her chin his his hand and moved Bella's head making her face him.

Bella pulled away from his hand as Grey jumped up and pushed him away from her and got in between them. 

Sting stumbled, but only for a second as he stared at Gray who had a murderous look in his eyes. 

"you cant just come in here and act like you own the place and spouting nonsense." Natsu growled as he stood up. His fists were on fire. 

Sting scoffed a little as he ran his hand through his hair. "Why don't you just ask her yourself" he said with a smirk as Bella stood up shakily, clearly drunk. 

"I never said you could touch me" She spat as she pushed past Gray and walked towards the door.

She could sense the shock coming from her guild.

"bella" mirajane and Lucy ran up to her. 

"what is he talking about?" Erza asked as she too caught up with her. 

Bella stopped just as she got to the door. "no matter where i go, im not safe" she whispered. 

"wh-what?" Lucy asked. 

Bella turned and faced them. everyone stood stock still as they stared at her. Natsu and Gray felt rage build up in them. 

"They attacked me at the games" Bella said as her voice broke. "Sting saved me. There was no one else around." she explained. 

most of the guild members were shaking in anger. 

"why the hell didn't you say anything" Laxus said angrily. With wide eyes Bella backed away from the larger man. 

Bella looked away and shrugged a little. "i..it's just...dinner, right. Ill be back soon." she said. She looked at Sting firmly "nothing else" she added coldly.

"You are drunk. I dont think you should be going anywhere" Gray says firmly.

Sting walked up and wrapped an arm around her and grinned. "hey no biggie. I killed it remember. You will be safe with me" he said completely ignoring what she said at the end while smirking smugly at Grey.

"what ever" bella whispered as she pulled away from him and walked out of the building, but not before slipping a note to Mirajane.

Sting looked at the guild members and smirked, waved, and followed Bella down the street. 

"So i was thinking we could go down to this cafe down the street" Sting was saying.

Bella didn't say anything as he lead her down the street.

"i heard from others that you were having quite the party last night. You should really come party with sabertooth" He continued saying.

with every word he spoke, Bella felt a stab run through her as she kept the images of the rage in her guild mates clear at the front of her mind. 

When they arrived at the cafe they sat down at a small table.

Sting continued of rambling about one thing or another until a lady came up and took their orders.

Thankfully there was a bar right next door to the cafe. 

"so how did you end up with Fairy tail?" Sting asked looking over at her from across the table. 

"they helped me" Bella replied quietly. 

"well....I mean...I helped you" Sting trailed off. 

Bella looked up at him. "they made me feel wanted when i had nothing else. I was alone and scared, running from men who want to use me as a breeding bitch" she said looking him dead in the eyes.

"they want a trophy" she added as she shakes her head.

"and they wont stop until they get me. I know that doesn't mean shit to you and it shouldn't...but i have been hated used....raised to be the perfect little slave to the right people" Bella said as she began trembling. 

"I don't want that. I don't want to be feared, i don't want to be used...hated. I want...I want someone to like me...for me...i want to be wanted because....they like me for me...not for my title, my abilities. i want to matter. I don't care if i am noticed. i just want...to fit in." She said looking down at the table. 

Sting stared at her stunned for several moments. 

"they make me feel wanted. like i belong there" Bella said as the waitress brought them some food. 

"well you would be welcomes in sabertooth. everyone has their place there" Sting continued trying.

Bella sighed.

"you just want easier access to me" Bella said looking up at him as she took a bite of her salad. 

"what is that?" sting asked catching sight of the tag and reached out.

Bella pulled away but he caught hold of the collar and looked at the tag. 

Sting scoffed. "yeah...if that is all it takes then, i should have no problem in persuading you" he said pompously.

Bella looked up at him puzzled as he let go of her. 

"what?" She asked confused. 

"you make a big speech about not wanting to be owned yet you wear a collar with tags on it like a dog." Sting said crossing his arms. 

Bella felt her anger spike as she stood up.

"One i was drunk" bella snapped as she poured her drink on him.

"two it's a joke between two friends" she said angrily as she backed away from the table.

Sting stood up quickly and grabbed hold of her wrist before she had the chance to leave. 

He glared at her angry that she had spilled her drink on him.

"Now hold on a minute. We ain't done yet" he said coldly.

Bella felt fear run up her spine" he said.

"Ill get you another drink...Sit down" he said shoving her back to her chair.

Bella quickly sat down as she watched him leave.

every ounce of her being was telling her to run, but something told her that she would not get very far. 

She sat there shaking as he got her another drink.

When he walked back over she looked up and saw a satisfied smirk on his face. 

"they must have taught you well since you take orders so well" Sting said.

Bella glared at him bitterly as she took the drink that he had sat down in front of her. 

*just put up with it, once tonight is over I can forget about it and move on* bella thought to herself encouragingly. 

Bella silently ate her salad while Sting ate his own food.

When Sting finished his he let out a sigh of content. 

"Alright, how about Dessert, what do you want angel cakes" He asked looking to Bella.

Bella tensed up at the pet name. 

"I..dont want any" bella replied with a slight stammer. 

Sting shot out and grabbed hold of her face making her look at him. "I said ...what do you want for dessert" he said coldly. 

Bella whimpered from the tight grip and squirmed a little.

"i...i" Bella glanced to the side and saw a desert advertising. "ch-cheese cake" she said quickly.

he let go of her and smiled.

"See now was that so hard?" Sting questioned and ordered their dessert. "oh that will be to go" he added.

Bella felt her self relaxing. *thank gods. it's almost over* she thought relieved.

Once they received their togo boxes they started leaving. 

"where are you going?" Sting asked. Bella tensed and felt herself come to a stop. 

"we aint done" he said grabbing her arm and lead her down the road in the opposite direction. 

"S-sting! l-let go of me! The agreement was for dinner. We had dinner. I want to go back now!" Bella pleaded as she struggled to keep up with him, but he was not having any of it.

"almost there baby" Sting said.

"Damn it! Let me go!" Bella yelled looking around.

There were plenty on people of the streets, she tried gaining their attention by calling out to them and yelling at Sting to let her go, but they turned a blind eye.

She looked up as they come to a building.

it was a very nice Hotel, but thanks to the alcohol she was seeing double of everything.

She could not let him get her inside. She struggled harder, but his grip tightened.

"Ah!" Bella looked up at him as he glared down at her.

"Knock it off or I'll carry you inside" he growled.

"S-sting i don't!" bella struggled to get out of his grip, however his grip was firm as he pulled her inside and down a hallway. she was doomed now.

He had gotten her inside the building. Lightening cracked loudly outside.

Sting wrapped his arm around her and lead her through the hotel after giving an order to bring drinks up to the room.

"you are going to love it" He said grinning as he pulled her into a room where a dark haired man was at reading a book.

"hey Rouge. I brought us a friend" he said as he shut the door.

Bella stumbled a bit when he let go of her to lock the door. 

Rouge looked up and over at them. "isn't that the girl from Fairy tail?" He asked. 

"yup" Sting grinned. "where is Lecter and frosh?" he asked. 

"they went to get something down the hallway" Rouge replied. 

"sit down relax" Sting said pushing Bella towards the bed.

bella stumbled back wards and fell onto the bed. 

"I really need to get back to the guild" Bella said hesitantly. 

"hey... I saved your life remember, you owe me" Sting said giving her a look that made her flinch.

Thunder rumbled loudly. Bella flinched at the sound.

Her father was angry, but what could she do?

Hearing a knock sting opened the door to find that the hotel helper had brought up drinks.

taking the drinks he shut the door and locked it back before going over to the table.

He opened the glass up and poured the contents into three glasses giving one to rouge and handing another to Bella. 

"i think i have had enough" bella started to say, but seeing the look he was giving her she closed her mouth and took the drink.

She took a small sip from the cup tasting what it was.

deciding she liked the taste she continued to tip it back and gulped the entire glass down trying to block out the sound of thunder and lightening.

"impressive" rouge said looking at her surprised. 

"would have been more impressive if it had been bourbon" Bella mumbled as she tried to recover from the large drink, unfortunately Sting just filled up her cup again.

It was then it hit her, Sting had no intentions of letting her leave.

Bella looked over the the window in time to see a streak of lightening flash through the sky.

She was far too out of it to try and fight it.

She cursed herself for drinking before leaving with him.

She would have fared better with a clearer head.

She faintly wondered if his friend Rouge knew what was happening.

The now empty glass fell from her hand and onto the ground as she fell over onto the bed paralyzed. 

The thunder grew louder as a storm raged on just out side.

The wind howled angrily while the rain poured down harshly to the earth.
