Claudia focused her steely gaze on the guard " Your telling me, there is nothing you can do to improve these conditions? She raised her eyebrow. She looked to the Celt " I really am sorry to disturb you this late. I have to go, but I'm so glad your alright."

"I'm sorry, miss, I'm under orders. I can't do anything unless I'm told to." The guard replied with a shrug.
Aedan understood the desire to not get into trouble, so he didn't blame the guard at all. But this young woman didn't appear to agree.
"Oh, it's alright. Thank you for coming to see me, and for your concern. I hope to see you again sometime, miss," Aedan reploed

( I'm back xD) Claudia let out a resigned sigh " well if thats how it is , i guess i can't change your mind." She looked to the Celt " I'm Claudia and something tells me will meet again." She let the guard show her out.

Yup) The heavy sent of perfume hung from Claudia as she mounted her horse, the Commander offering no help. What else is new. She got roped into going because of her mother. she didn't want to go anywhere with him. Not since he knew that gladiator would die. Her green eyes blazed in the dying sun's rays. They rode along slowly, taking time to talk about how amazing the Commanders life was.
They reached the front gates to a huge estate after what seemed like hours of listening to the Commander babble on and on. A stable boy came to fetch her horse. She dismounted and looked around. It was a very large place, almost looking like a small palace. She gardens were beautiful. She was about to go look around when the Commander took her arm and led her inside.

Aedan hated these parties. It was held by his master, and Aedan was to hand out food and basically do whatever the guests wanted. Quite literally whatever they wanted. No matter how much he might not want to.
So this is what he was doing. He was going around, dressed in the finer clothes his master only gave them for events such as these, and carrying a dish from which people could get food if they were hungry.

As soon as she entered the doors the smell of incense and wine filled her nostrils. There was dancers for entertainment, as if the guests weren't entertained. She was wearing a long pink, satin skirt and the matching top. Her long curls were hanging in a long braid.
She pretty ,much sat in place because she hated this kind of party. The entire thing was about gossip and drinks. It disgusted her. She finally broke free of the Commander's arm and headed out for the back gardens.

The gardens were the most peaceful part of the house, and a few people were out here. Aedan took this excuse to go outside and check on these few people, so as to spend as much time as possible outside and away from the crushing crowds.
He headed around the few small groups, offering food or drink to all of the people there. There weren't many takers.

The young woman made her way to the a large tree, and just sat underneath. Tonight would be a long night of getting to hear about rich peoples problems and having to empathize. She looked around and noticed a server weaving his way around the small amount of people in the gardens. Then she realized it was Aeden, his hair gave it away almost instantly. She stood up and waved him over.

Aedan noticed somebody waving him over, and a closer look told him it was Claudia. He quickly headed over, a small smile already on his face.
"Claudia," he greeted with a small smile, knowing nobody else was in earshot "How nice to see you. Do you want something to eat? Heaven knows I've got quite a selection"

"Aeden! I'm so glad to see your doing better!. No thank you." She smiled " I'm actually really glad your here, I think i should've been bored to death if you hadn't shown up." She said through a laugh. Someone looked over to her and she quieted down hoping she hadn't gotten Aeden in trouble already.

Aedan smiled "Oh, I'm doing much better, thank you. I'm still not fighting yet but my trainer says I shall be ready within the next few weeks. Life goes on, I suppose. What about you? How are you? Did you come here with that rude general?"

Her smile faded " They want you fight again? After almost dying? And I'm very well, I did come with the rude general yes. I wish I could say I didn't." She noticed the scar on his neck " what is that from?" she reached her hand to touch him, but thought better of it when she realized people were still looking their way.

"I don't have a choice in fighting, now do I? I have to obey my master, after all." replied Aedan with a small smile.
When sheasked about the scar on his throat, the young man reached up to touch it himself, his hand resting on his throat as he swallowed.
"I was eighteen. I was fighting against the invading Roman army. My best friend, who was only seventeen, was scared for the safety of his family if the Romans won. So he turned on me in the middle of the battle and cut my throat, intending to kill me. Roman soldiers found me and took me as a prisoner of war. They saved my life but then sold me on as a slave when we got to Rome"

Claudia listened to his story, and all the while all she could think was how someone could harm their best friend. " i'm sorry. I can't imagine how hard that is to recover from." Right behind him she noticed the Commander. She ducked into a bush and pulled Aeden down with her. " Sorry, the Commanders out there." She whispered. It only just dawned on her how improper she was acting.

"I didn't, not really," Aedan replied "I was angry for years. It took me a long time to realise it wouldn't do me any good."
Then he was pulled to the ground, into a bush. It was all he could do to not make a startled noise, but he managed to avoid it.
"Don't worry about it," Aedan reassured

(Do you wanna move this to pm? I can reply faster that way) They sat there quietly until the commander moved on. She stood up slowly, hoping no would notice her coming out the bushes. She brushed to twigs and leaves off her dress, and looked to Aeden. "I have to go, but we should meet soon.If thats ok with you." She offered him a smile.

(Sure x Just shoot me a pm with your next reply)
Aedan nodded as he too emerged, brushing the twigs off his clothes. Nobody, thankfully, had noticed anything.
"Of course, I'm always around," Aedan replied "Come and talk with me whenever you would like to. It's fun to talk"
