She whimpered. Melody hid her face in her hands again, pulling her knees to her chest and letting out a soft cry. "I hope you like being fat, I feel awful," she whispered. "And when I feel bad I bake cookies and cakes...Lots of them...." When she'd broken a window, she'd baked cookies for a day. she let out a soft sob, and then bolted up right, looking around. She'd heard a voice. She looked at him, blinking in confusion. No, no, idiot. It's me, your uncle...I got fucking jinxed by some bitchy voodoo cunt, and now my body is decaying. I had to hide somewhere, and you're my favorite person...Is this the fucker who beat on you? Sirius asked. She touched her head, looking green. "I'm gonna throw up," she told Jareth, looking sick and sad. So is he really going to kill your aunt? She looked around, looking freaked out. Great, not only had she cheated, now she was going nuts and her uncle was in her head! Fabulous.

He stood dropped the wash cloth in the tub water, watching her calmly. "It's alright, this is all my fault... Oh, and, about your aunt," the man paused, thinking about it, "if it makes you happy I won't kill her." Jareth said, smirking a little and stroking her hair, he looked at the scratches that he'd left on her face, man, he was an asshole and hew knew it. "Would you like help out of the tub?" He questioned, holding both his hands out so she could grab onto them.

Melody looked up at him, then down at the floor. "It's not your fault," she whispered softly. She still felt like a dirty, betraying, treacherous, sleazy, filthy, whore whose heritage was nothing but poor, common, and muttish. She was mentally beating the shit out of herself as she thought back to what she'd done. God, his reputation was probably destroyed now because of her. She sniffled, looking guilty feeling. Wow, I never would've guessed that you could cheat, hon, he commented. Never in my life. She finally grasped his hand and stood, standing there and staring at the floor.

He helped her out of the bathtub before giving her a nice, fluffy, white towel and wrapping it around her, he touched her face for a second and then stepped back. "Clothes," he gestured to the bathroom counter, there was a night gown and a silk robe, "call me if you need me, i'll be in the bedroom... I'm sorry for how i've treated you." Jareth said before he left the bathroom, shutting the door behind him with a gentle click.

Melody slowly pulled the gown on, then the robe. She stared at her face in the mirror, and saw nothing but a cheating whore. She bent over the toilet and threw up, getting everything out of her system. She sat by the toilet, listening to Sirius talk about Jareth and about herself. "shut up, shut up, shut up," she mumbled, grasping her head and curling into a ball. Sirius eventually quieted down inside her head...for a few moments. You really ought to go to the doc soon. "why?" she asked him, scowling. "And why are you in my head?" Oh, uh....long story. short version, my body died and I needed a place to chill until I could find somewhere else to be. Anyways, ugh....Look, if I tell you why you should go to the doc, ti wont' be as fun, but....You really fuck a lot with him, don't you? Melody flushed and staggered up, heading out to the bedroom. She sat at the foot of the bed, unsure if she was allowed back into it with him or not. She felt like crying again, but there was enough of that. Something clicked in suddenly. "I'm eighteen now," she murmured. She'd forgotten about her birthday, and it had passed a little more than a week ago. She looked at her lap. "I'm sorry, Jareth....I can't...See how this is....I still feel like I've...cheated, and....I want to make that up to you somehow," she spoke, looking at him. Her amethyst eyes were glowing with guilt and pain, but also relief that he seemed to be more than happy to take her back. She swallowed. "And...I'm sorry....your reputation...is....ruined because of me. I'm sorry that...I've been an embarrassment, and I'll try harder, and even go to classes! I saw one on a board in town the other day, I'll go to it, okay?"

"You don't have to take classes for me, i'm finished with getting you to change, it isn't going to happen... And... I want you to be happy..." Perhaps the reason he'd been beating her up so much because she was trying to hard, and sub-conciously he didn't want her to change herself for him. He sat at the top middle of the bed, leaning back into the wall, legs spread out, he looked her over, eyes half-lidded. "Stop apologizing to me Melody... Just... Come up here with me." Jareth gestured for her to come over to where he was, he gently patted the bed, staring into her eyes. "I'd like to keep you, Melody... The way you are, the way you were when I first met you... And... You can act however you like, be wild and free and happy... We'll go and eat spicy food together..." He tried to smile but couldn't, he didn't have the ability it seemed.

Melody hesitantly crawled over to him, then got situated beside him. She looked up at him. "I'm not happy knowing my etiquette is ruining your reputation, this can't be just about me...I want to learn that stuff so that way I can impress your friends, but when I come home, I'll be like this..." she paused, looking at her lap. Sirius was listening. THis was sooo juicy. "And...maybe if I learn the stuff I need to to be a good date for your political moves- Haha, see, I learned about all that not too long ago-" she inserted randomly, proud of herself. "but, if I learn that stuff, maybe you can learn to relax a little bit?" she asked. Melody had thought he'd almost always seemed tense. And just once she'd like to see him relaxed and goofy...If he had such a bone in him, if not, that was fine too. She didn't want to be in a relationship where she got what she wanted because he felt bad. She wanted him to keep up with his work, since it was probably a big part of his life, so she'd learned etiquette and keep up on current events....But once in awhile, maybe he could relax and help her bake cookies or something.

He listened, nodding every now and then, he stared at her once she finished speaking and then slowly laid himself down, pressing his face into her thigh and gently stroking it. "If you'd like to learn than you can learn, but even if you don't i'll still take you to parties and out to dinner at fancy places... And if you embarass me than, I guess it's just to bad for whoever cares." Jareth brushed his lips against her thigh slowly and let his eyes close. "I can... Try to relax more..." He trailed off, thinking about what relaxing would feel like if he were to do it. "We'll figure everything out, this will all be erfectly fine." Jareth said, sounding tired, he had gone completely nuts that night, and now he was exhausted from it.

Melody watched him caress her thigh as he laid there, his lips against her warm leg. She stroked his hair, nodded. "We'll figure it out..." she agreed and grew silent for a few moments. "...I know I've said this a lot already, but I'm very sorry," she whispered, caressing his hair still. "Can I kiss you goodnight?" Melody looked down at him, sounding small and guilty, but also filled with love.

"... There's one thing we can change rght now, you don't have to ask me if you can do anything, if you want to do it, than you're free too." Jareth told her and sat himself up, leaning in close to her but not putting his mouth to hers, he'd all her to innitiate the kiss.

Melody looked into his eyes before kissing him tenderly. Aw, how romantic! You both are working it out! That's so tender, Sirius grumbled. Damn though, you found yourself a hottie. And a good kisser. Melody's kiss faltered and she pulled away abruptly, looking pale. He could....feel too? Damn straight. You two gonna make love? She turned green and looked down, sickened with this. ...You'll get used to me...All you need to do is find me somewhere else I can go- not a doll either...Find someone who can fix my body or something, make it less, ugh, dead.

His eyes narrowed when she pulled away, he gave her a confused expression and saw that he looked like she was going to throw up. Jareth moved back and checked his breath, seeing if it stank, he frowned, he'd just brushed his teeth a while ago. "Are you alright, Melody? You look a little sick... Would you like to go home? I'll walk you there." He wondered if it was him that was akingher ill, and it was, well... Then that would upset him, he moved a hand back through his hair and looked over at her, brows raised.

Melody shook her head. "N-no....Um..." She pulled her knees to her chin. "If....I told you I was hearing a voice in my head, and that voice could feel us kissing, and it made me feel weird, how would you react?" she asked.

"V-voices... In your head...?" He must've hit her to hard and made her go crazy or something like that. "Did something happen after you left my house?" Jareth asked after a couple of moments of just staring at her, he moved closer again, looking into her eyes, he gently took her chin in his grasp and studied her carefully. "Because when I found you... You were passed out on the ground." He commented, something had most likely happened, he guessed.

"It's just one voice and...It's awful," she averted her gaze, embarrassed. God, no no, couldn't pass out form exhaustion, no no, it had to be a fucking thing, didn't it! "M...My uncle Sirius...He..." She flushed and looked disgusted. "He said he needed me for something, and then...Now he's in me....He won't stop talking...He said he was dying, and wasn't ready, so now he's in me until he can get a new body..."
