Uriah shook his head after Arabella had ran her hand through his hair. He knew that the berries weren't going to last too long and that they would be hungry too. He remembered the extra money in his pocket. "Hey Bella, do you want to maybe go into town and eat. My treat this time." He said with a smile at her as he stood up. Hopefully, since it was almost noon the guards wouldn't be too active and they could walk freely in the town.

"Yeah, we can go to town, just one that doesn't have a murder case on their hands." Arabella put her shirt over her shoulder, "We need to head back to the house though, I need to drop off a few things." She started off into the woods, back to where the house was. It was as she remembered, empty looking except for the horse tied up nearby. She thought about the crime she had commited at the inn. Arabella felt somewhat guilty but knew that it was for defending others. Still though...hopefully they can't trace it back to her. Although it would be nearly impossible to do so. There was no technology that was capable. She opened the door and stepped inside, dropping her paper on her bed and put on her now dry longsleeve. Arabella went over to the other hall and attached her sword back onto her belt. Just in case, you can never trust anyone.

Uriah followed after her, he hadn't brought anything but the horse which they would probably ride into town in case they needed to make a quick exit. Uriah dis hate the fact that they had to be so cautious, but maybe with the impending war people would stop worrying about catching him and Arabella. He waited in the doorway for Arabella to return.

Arabella ran over a quick checklist in her head before going out the door to see Uriah. "Ready to go?" She asked, not waiting for an answer before she got onto the horse, but scooted back on the saddle to let Uriah up so he could take the reigns, literally. Arbella was kind of excited of going into town, it has felt like a while since the last time she ate with other people besides Uriah was about a week ago. Which wasn't that unusual, seeing as she was one person, but nice to see other people all the same.

Uriah noticed Arabella scoot back in the saddle and hopped in front of her, turning out the stallion. He trotted forward, trusting Arabella to hold onto him. The closest town would probably be looking for them, so he decided to go to the next one. It was about ten minutes away. He was familiar with the town, it was mostly friendly so they shouldn't have too much trouble.

True...yeah, I guess you could play her. But I'll play the next side character okay?)
Arabella peered past Uriah as they began to approach the town. This one was slightly bigger than the last town they were in, but everyone had new faces here. Faces of people that had no clue about who they are or why they are here. Everyone carried on like normal, women with baskets of fruit carrying them to stands, children playing in the street with a dog, and men chatting with each other outside of stores. It was nice to see that again, it reminded of Arabella of what it was like back home. The people of his county looked similar to those that lived in Brom's kingdom, except, the people here had lighter colored eyes and there were a few people with ginger hair mixed in with the crowd. "So where did you want to eat?" Arabella asked, hoping Uriah knew some places around here that were decent.

Uriah slowed the horse down when Tue town finally came in view. As they entered the street no one really paid them any mind, which made him happy. He climbed off the horse, leading it to a hitching post where he put his arms up to help Arabella down. He hoped she wasn't to tomboyish to make h not look like a gentlemen in public. "I know an inn. They like business and the food isn't bad."

Arabella gladly let Uriah help him down. She may not be her average girl, but she still had lady-like qualities to her as she was raised in a high class home. Arabella looked up at Uriah when he mentioned a place they could eat, "Oh, that sounds fine to me. We better get going, I'm so hungry I think I'm beginning to digest myself." She said dramatically. Obviously she was not digesting herself, but still, she needed to make her point stronger. Arabella grabbed Uriah's hand without even noticing she did at first. It was just like a movement she didn't control. Good thing she wasn't awkward about it, and held his hand like how a normal person would. Not that she considered herself normal either. But that was besides the point. Hopefully Uriah didn't mind.

(XD. I was going to have him hold her hand, but you beat me to it)
Uriah finished helping Arabella down from the horse, taking a minute to tie it to the hitching post. Uriah was pleasantly surprised when Arabella held his hand and he didn't move it away. "Well we can't have that happening." Uriah told her. When they entered the tavern Uriah noticed a few of the girls I'm the back smile his way, particularly a blonde. He almost groaned.

When they entered the tavern Arabella felt like she noticed something Uriah didn't, either that or he didn't show it. There was blonde girl, pretty too, about her and Uriah's age, that seemingly recognized Uriah. Or maybe she was just reminded of someone when she saw him. However, Arabella thought that was too high of a hope. This girl couldn't be one of the ones he had met within the time frame they didn't see each other could she? No! That's impossible, what would one of them be doing here? Well besides the fact that they could possibly be living around here. Arabella was tempted to shoot her a glare but figured that would be petty, she was most likely over thinking all of this. Either way, Arabella gripped his hand a little tighter, her fingers inter locked with his.

Uriah led Arabella over to a table, waiting for a tavern girl to swing by. Uroah say across from Arabella. Luckily for them a burnetter came to their table, but the blonde still watched from a distance. "What can I get for you two?" She asked in a friendly voice ,looking at Arabella first.

Arabella snapped out of her daze, realizing that she has not given a single thought to what she was going to eat. "Oh, I um...I'll take whatever he's having." She motioned toward Uriah and then leaned over and told him, "So don't order anything too big." Arabella said jokingly. She still looked over at the blonde who had not taken her eyes off of Uriah. Was she the maid that had witnessed her murder that bounty hunter? No...the other one was brunette. She was tempted to stand up and tell her to 'get lost' but didn't want to draw attention to herself.

"The normal then." Uriah told the girl. She nodded and went off to the kitchen, smiling. Uriah looked at Arabella. "They'll bring us out some bread and half of a Cornish hen. It's a pretty decent meal for the price." He told her. Uriah spotted movement out of the corner of his eye and saw the blonde making her way over to their table with drinks. She set down Arabella before giving Uriah's his. "We missed you." The girl said smoothly, running a hand over Uriah's shoulder as she walked away. Uriah cringed, turning red. Well, there was no doubt Arabella saw that. He peeked one eye open to see her reaction. He honestly didn't remember much about this girl, but he did remember her name, Stella.

(Lol, its okay)
Arabella shot her a glare, one like daggers. She turned to Uriah, "Who's that?" Arabella was boiling on the inside. What did she mean by 'we missed you'? Have they been seeing each other before this? Was Uriah cheating on her? He better not, or else...Questions flew inside her mind but she didn't say anything yet. Uriah should answer himself. Blondie needs to keep her hands to herself and not on Uriah. No one who is just a 'friend' does that.

Uriah could have sworn that Arabella could burst into flames. "That's uh Stella." He cleared his throat uncomfortably. Not that anything had happened between the or with any of the others girls, but because Arabella could light him on fire. "She's one of those girls I mentioned."

"I noticed." Arabella spoke through a slightly clenched jaw, trying to keep her temper under control. After all, she didn't know all the facts. She continued to give the evil eye to this 'Stella'. Arabella would have said something very rude about this girl, but knew better than to curse in public. Expecially Uriah. He better hope that he wasn't with Blondie anymore. She moved her hand away from Uriah's and put it in her lap instead. Arabella wasn't in the mood to hold his hand anymore.

Uriah felt a little hurt with Arabella's treatment after that run-in. And to make matters worse, Stella was coming back with their food. She looked at Arabella in a most judging manner. She set their food down with a wide smile. "Anything else you might want?" She asked, raising her eyebrow at Uriah. "No, thanks Stella." Uriah said, avoiding eye contact. She smirked. "I knew you remembered me!" She laughed.

Arabella muttered just loud enough for Stella to hear her "Not that he really cared..." she rolled her eyes. Arabella already started to hate this waitress. Arabella curled her hands into a fist under the table, Arabella and Uriah should go look at a weapons shope next. *Maybe we can find something that was good for decapitating people...* Arabella thought darkly. She gave Uriah a look, hopefully he got the message to send her away.

Uriah could feel Arabella's gaze burning holes in him. "I think we're good now, you can go." He said to Stella. Stella didn't take a hint. "Now Uriah, is that any way to treat an old friend?" She asked, putting a hand on his arm. Uriah brushed it away lightly, which just encouraged Stella. "You won't even kiss my cheek in greeting will you?" Uriah knew this comment was pinpointed right at Arabella. If there was one thing Stella didn't do, it was play nicely with other girls around.

Arabella stood up from where she was sitting. This waitress was beyond annoying, "Look Blondie, you have a job to do, and I can gurantee you that your job description did not include social hour with your customers. So I suggest you get back to whatever you were doing before I report you to your employer. Which, I hope you know, would result in deduction of your pay or your removal from the premises. Did you get all of that or do I need to say it slower for you?" Arabella walked inbetween her and Uriah, pushing her away slightly. His girl needs to know who exactly she's messing with. If not, someone was going to get hurt. And Arabella knew for a fact that it was not going to be herself.

Stella backed up a step and glared at Arabella. "I do believe you weren't talking to me?" She growled and tucked a blonde hair behind her hair with a small huff. She looked at Uriah "Uriah, who's this wench?" Uriah was already standing, grabbing Arabella's arm. People were watching them now. "Maybe we should just get going." He said uncomfortably, trying to pull Arabella.

Arabella got the hint from Uriah, "Yeah, we should go. Maybe we can look at a weapons shop and find something good for decapitating people with." She gave a glare to Stella, "And by the way, I have enough money to buy you and your family, then again, who would want to?" She shot back before exiting the tavern, and slamming the door behind her, not caring if people were judging her. Stella was the wench! She was the one working as a waitress! Arabella wasn't looking to see if Uriah had come out or not. He better not have apologized for her behavior, Arabella was not an embarrassment, and she was not going to be treated in the way that she was. Ahe headed over to a nearby weapons shop as she said she would. Instead, she looked for a bow and some arrows, Arabella could catch her food rather than sit in there.

Uriah was so glad that Arabella hadn't flattened the other girl. He ran out the door after her. "Arabella!" Uriah called, trying to catch up with her. She was walking pretty fast. "Wait." He said, grabbing her arm. She needed to get her head on straight before she attracted unwanted attention. He hoped she wouldn't whirl around and smack him.

Arabella whipped around at lightning speed, shaking Uriah's hand off, "What? Don't you have someone you should be flirting with right now?" She held her hands near her sides, hands clenched into fists. "You know what, it doesn't matter, I have things I should be doing." She said flatly before turning back around and entering the weapons shop. Arabella grabbed the best bow she could find and laid it on the counter with a large quiver of arrows. The man held out his hand for the money, in which Arabella gave him. She didn't spend long at the counter. She slung the quiver over her shoulder and held her bow in her opposite hand.
