I was in my room, drawing six as per usual when I heard a knock on the door. "Enter." I called out as Crystal walked in. "Oh, it's just you cousin. Do you need anything?" I asked her as I turned to face my cousin. Blue met dark blue. "Well.. there IS something.. do you think you could go to the store and pick up some fabric for me? I'm kinda running low." She explained with an embarrassed blush. "Sure. Plus, I might pick up something for the little ones too." I replied, softly smiling. Crystal hugged me tightly as I hugged back. "Thanks, Ruby! Your the best!" She said as she let go and left my room.

As soon as she left, i immediately went to lock the door just to make sure no-one would break into my room while I was picking up fabric for Crystal and plush dolls for Sally, Callie and Lazari. Sliding off the black and white top and shorts I had on since it was hot outside and into a sleek black dress which hid my scars without making me sweat. Slipping on a pair of my favorite 13 inch red heels and my choker from my days as the yellow rose, I grabbed my purse which had a giant pearl for a clasp and left the mansion. I walked into the store, and suddenly I had many people gawking at my face.

I could hear them whispering about how beautiful I looked in the black dress. I ignored them as my heart belonged to a certain yellow raincoat wearing girl and went to the fabric section. I was torn between a silky dark red and a shimmery Rosé fabric when I felt a hand grope my lower back and I instantly spun around seeing one of Micheal's old friends. "Leave me alone, you a*******!" I said, backing up and studying his face. His friend was named Jason and he had dark skin, Brown eyes, black hair, and he wore a green shirt, jeans, white converses, and a Foxy mask on the side of his head.

"Aw, why not~?" He asked as he kept violating my personal space, his hands touching my forbidden flower. "S-stop.. please.." I begged as tears ran down my cheeks. Just then, the sky darkened and the lights popped out. I could feel his hands anymore and closed my eyes shut. I didn't want to see him do it to me. Dad told me it was impossible for a slender like me to become pregnant from someone I didn't love. But I was still scared.. "hey, open your eyes. It's ok, he's gone." Said a thunder-like voice and I opened them.

There, standing in front of me was a tall man and I immediately recognized him. "You.. your the Storm man!" I said, the shock evident in my voice. "Of course. Your Ruby June Fisher, daughter of Alcina Dimitrescu and Slenderman, Sister to Sally Maryam Williams and Sylvester Eric Fisher. Your father was worried about you." I looked away, shyly. "Sorry if it was a bother to do that for me.." he shut me up by placing a finger on my lips. "It's no trouble at all, Ruby. I couldn't bear to stand that boy touching you like that! I know your not that type of girl who allows men to touch you willingly." He said, smiling.

I smiled back, knowing that he knew I was not a Oiran. "So.. what made you go to the Fabric section?" He looked down and blushed. "I.. was asked by your mother to keep an eye on you to make sure you weren't being.. R******. Just saying that word leaves a bad taste in my mouth." He explained as I understood why mom asked him to do that. He left as the sky changed back into a beautiful blue. I heard my phone ring as I picked up. I then heard Crystal's voice.

"Hello?"

"Ruby, what happened?! I saw the sky darken and thunderclouds formed!"

"Well.. how mad would you be if I told you I was almost R***ed by one of Micheal's past friends and the Storm man saved me?"

"WHAT?!? ARE YOU OK?!?"

"Haha! I am, Thanks to him. plus, you know our bodies are created to carry our loved one's children."

I could hear her breathe a sigh of relief.

"Remind me to buy you pepper spray after this."

"Reminded."

"Thanks. Also, I want the Shimmery Rosé fabric. Love you!"

"Love you too. Bye!" I then hung up and placed my phone back into my purse. So.. she wants the shimmery rosé fabric? Ok. I picked up the bolt of fabric and placed it in the basket. I also noticed some scissors I think she would like.

I picked them up and noticed they costed 180.00$. I smirked, nothing I couldn't handle. I placed them also in the basket and left to pick up some dolls for the little ones. I went to the toy aisle and saw a bunch of dolls I think they would like.

(Sally's)

(Callie's)

(Lazari's)

Once I got the girls their dolls, I went to the checkout and paid for the dolls with an 200.00 dollar bill. I left the store and headed back home, still keeping my eye on anymore ambushes. Luckily, there were none. I quickly went inside the door and immediately locked it. "Big sis!" I heard sally call out as soon as she saw me. "Hi. I got you, your friend and your cousin some dolls. Here!" I said handing them their respective dolls as they giggled and squealed. "What are you gonna name them?" I asked. "I'll name my doll Lilac!" Said sally.

"I'll call her.. Aqua!" Callie squealed.

"I will name her.. Rosalina!" Replied Lazari as they all went upstairs to play with their new toys. I smiled faintly. They reminded me of myself and Sal when we were children.. and not dead. I wish I could have been there for you sooner, Brother.. Maybe when we meet once more, we'll never be apart. Hopefully..
