*Warren trailed behind Ruby and rested his hands very tentatively on her bare shoulders as she sat down on the chair. He leaned down and kissed the top of her head, inhaling the sweetness of her hair. His fingertips danced on either side of her neck and met in the middle where he cupped her throat with his large hands, almost cradling her head.* “I missed you too. I do not very much appreciate when you’re out and about on your own.”

Ruby shuddered against his soft touch, she didn’t deserve this, she deserved his anger. However she couldn’t stop herself from leaning into his warm hands, a strange feeling of guilt loomed over her. “I know, I wouldn’t have come here but- It’s just-” A sob surprised her and she covered her mouth. “I cant go home Warren” Ruby’s voice was a low whine. She had forgotten how disgusted with herself she was. Turning in the chair she rose to her knees, gazing up at Warren. “Kiss me ?”

We Need to Talk About Kevin (2011) dir.  Lynne Ramsay

“You wake and watch TV, get in your car and listen to the radio you go to your little jobs or little school, but you don’t hear about that on the 6 o'clock news, why? ‘Cause nothing is really happening, and you go home and watch some more TV and maybe it’s a fun night and you go out and watch a movie. I mean it’s got so bad that half the people on TV, inside the TV, they’re watching TV. What are these people watching, people like me?”

*Warren moved quieter than most people - he was always very aware in public to not let his guard down and move with the velvety, Indian step of which came natural to him. His manor was the place where he could let his guard down and move and be the near superhuman entity of Warren Travers, but not now. Because Ruby was here and he could smell the salt of her tears, nearly feel the irregularity of her heartbeat. He watched her with a frown between his brows, stepping into the kitchen and gently taking care to push down with his large feet to alert her to his presence as he did.*

“Hungry?”

Ruby heard the steps behind her but struggled to react as quickly as she would have liked, continuing her wide eyed stare into the depths of Warrens well stocked fridge. Her stomach turned as she heard the familiar richness of his voice, how deeply she wanted to turn and throw herself at his feet and sit there sobbing for as long as she needed. Instead Ruby’s head drunkenly turned to him, she reached up to wipe her face with the back of her hand. “No, I uh- went out and I missed you” she stated, trying her best to seem composed, trying her best to not show how much she needed him in this moment. She reached into the fridge, pulled out a box of strawberries and sat herself on a kitchen chair.

“Ruby come here” At his voice, the slight demand and urgency of it she knew it had to be her brother. She had turned to face him slowly, and let out an angry sob as she stared at him. He finally looked like the man he had pretended to be through his teenage years, at 24 she wasn’t sure what she had expected of his appearance because she hadn’t expected him to return. So much had changed, she had learned to live with her own free will, she decided things for herself now. He had left behind a meek 14 year old girl, and had come back to a woman who had been through so much more than he could have imagined. Ruby come here, echoed through her mind now as she stood at the gate to Warren’s house. Her hands were shaking as she fumbled with the latch, tear stains smeared all across her cheeks. The various force-fields that encased his manor had been altered by Warren to allow her in and stepping within these boundaries caused fresh tears to fall, the comfort and safety she felt from being merely near Warren was unparalleled. She stumbled to the front door and pushed it open, not remembering to close it Ruby wandered to the kitchen. She pulled open the fridge door and stared into it, the light causing her eyes to sting and run even more so than before.

*Something stirred deep inside Warren’s black heart. Ruby was spilling her guts out to him; finally telling him the things he’d of course known all along, but longed to hear. It was delicious, absolutely delicious, to see her defenseless before him, laying there like a broken porcelain doll. It also made him feel a tinge of remorse that he’d hurt her like this… Nevertheless, it was a means to an end and Warren never felt remorse for more than a fleeting moment here and there. Still, he could count the times he’d felt it on one hand.*

“Shh, it’s alright,” *Warren cooed and scooped Ruby up in one gracious, fluid motion, holding her small frame protectively against his own.* “I am not going to hurt you any longer. It’s alright, child.” *He carried her through a long corridor while rubbing soothing circles into her back, and into his bedroom. He sat her down on his fourposter and assessed the mess he’d made of her. Tenderly, he ran his thumb over her bloody bottom lip and lifted it up to his mouth, sucking it off. She tasted sweet and alluring.* “Lift your arms.” *Warren pulled her dress up over her head so she sat nearly naked before him. He got his black wand out and with a flick Transfigured up a soothing herbal ointment to rub into her bruised and sore skin. (He could always easily heal it, but he had no intention of doing that - she’d set off his temper and deserved to bear the mark of that. Besides, he greatly enjoyed seeing her so obviously claimed.) He got down on his knees in front of her, lifting her wrist and kissing her knuckles, before he began dabbing ointment into her red cheek. He spoke to her in a rich baritone.* “I care for you too. Up to the extent that I can care for anyone, Ruby, I care for you. From now on, you belong to me. I shall care for you and provide for you the way I do all my favourite things. *He smiled with a twinkle in his eyes and kissed her forehead. He then studied her for a long moment with a furrowed brow, suddenly serious.* “I desire to know the content of your soul, Ruby Everett. I desire to possess everything you are. Will you let me?”

Ruby felt utterly humiliated. Her face was flushed pink and shining with tears, she brought the heels of her hands up to her eyes and remained like that for a few moments, halting herself from completely breaking down. I hate him Ruby lied to herself  I hate him and I’m never coming back to this fucking house. The last time Ruby had been manipulated in such a way was with her brother, Alfred enjoyed hearing from her about how much she depended on him and didn’t shy away from violence as a method of getting what he wanted out of her. However with one swift movement Ruby was lifted off of the ground, and all her falsified hatred was forgotten. Gladly too, any associations between Alfie and Warren were not welcome. Ruby’s blonde head rested limply on Warren’s chest “Don’t make me do that again Warren, ever” ��She mumbled into his shirt.The trust she placed in Warren was unrivaled, she hadn’t allowed herself to confide in anyone but him but still allowing him to see her this weak was deeply unsettling for Ruby. Yet, she allowed herself to be placed upon his bed and cared for like an infant, numb until he spoke.   

Warren’s words filled her stomach with knots and she felt as though her lungs might burst. Warren wanted her. To the long list of treasured expensive belongings he owned he wished to add Ruby Everett. She felt drunk on pain and happiness, “For as long as you might want me Warren, I’m yours”

*Warren stood as frozen for a long moment, before he began to roar with laughter. Soon, his entire body shook with it. He wiped away tears of mirth from his eyes. He spoke in a silky tone.* “Oh, this is rich, this is truly rich! Ruby Louise Everett, the little girl lost! You delude yourself into thinking you can handle whatever I throw at you and that you know my true nature, yet you cannot handle even a mere beating. Do you know the things I’ve done to girls younger than you? Do you know the things I love to do? You are such a child. *He grabbed her shoulders and shook her roughly.* “This is me, dearheart, and these are the things I do.” *He raised his hand and slapped her in the exact same spot as before, bending down and pushing his knee between her legs.* “Do you want more or have you tasted enough? Monsters seem so romantic from afar, don’t they…” *He pinned her arms over her head and brushed his lips over her hers amorously, tasting blood.* “How does a monster look up close? Tell me, Ruby Louise.”

*Now, I am done with your brattish ways. If you don’t spill your rotten heart out and tell me every little desire, dream and warm feeling you have for me at this very instant, I will kill you.”

Ruby could tolerate meaningless violence, being hit was no new experience but feeling so exposed made her stomach turn; this was not meaningless violence, everything Warren did had a calculated reason. She didn’t want to hear about any of his other girls. Jealousy and Shame were coursing through her, “Fine, whatever it is you want to do you have me, but this is a different affair altogether, this is all about you wanting to get inside my head and fuck me over. I can’t - “ Ruby struggled to find her words without revealing too much “I can’t have someone manipulating me like that again” She flinched when he went to hit her the second time but kept her composure, whimpering again only when the pressure of his knee between her legs grew apparent. God she wanted nothing more than to spit in his face. Her eyes closed in an attempt to compose herself, this situation was familiar yet confusing to her “Alf-  Warren, stop it” she hissed through clenched teeth.

“Fine. Fine. I care for you Warren. I want to wake up with you everyday and know that I’m safe. I hate the thought of you being as you are with me with anyone else, it makes me sick to my fucking stomach thinking about you with anybody but me. It kills me that I know you don’t feel the same because I know you think of me as just your plaything or your pet but if I have to remain as just that to continue this then… I will, I will” The shame of admitting her feelings for him was too much and she let out a small sob. “I’ll do anything for you”

[rubyy-everett]

*Warren raised his hand and struck Ruby full force straight on her cheekbone near her eye in a lightening fast movement. It made a cracking sound that filled the entire room. He pushed her off his lap so she fell to the floor. He rose from his seat. It took a good amount of his willpower not to kick her repeatedly in the stomach.* God, I am so sick of you, Ruby. *His voice was a growl and he pointed his finger at her.* Is there nothing genuine within you? Must you scoff at every wound as if you cannot feel the pain that is actually killing you? Do you really think I am that fucking blind to your nature? *He leaned down and closed his right hand around her neck, squeezing tightly before slamming her head into the oak floor and letting go. The next words came spilling out of him from a place he didn’t know of.* “You wound me when you speak like that. You wound me.”

Stars exploded across Ruby’s vision as Warren’s hand made impact with her face, shock flooded into her as she fell to the floor with a faint whimper. Unpredictable was one thing but this was completely unexpected. Ruby’s eyes pricked with tears at the shock of the blow but she forced her gaze to meet his. Her mouth was dry as she attempted to defend herself, “Don’t - Don’t start trying to work your way around how I’m thinking or feeling Warren. You don’t fucking know me like that” She spat the words out freely before she felt his hand squeeze tight around her throat and then her head smacked into the floor, a ringing in her ears as she closed her eyes. Ruby let herself lie there for a few moment’s before speaking,  her voice hoarse, “Like what ? Nothing I said fucking justified this” Ruby held onto the chair to sit herself up, swallowing as she suppressed tears.

[rubyy-everett]

*Warren narrowed his eyes and leaned in closer to Ruby, smiling in a cold manner that didn’t reach his eyes. Once again, he was dangerous.* “Oh, do stop the vulgarities, they do not become you. Yes, I was asking if you’ve fucked anyone else. Now, however, as you’ve insinuated you’ve met someone, I am enquiring regarding that as well, my pet.”

“You do know I would kill them? If you were to fall in love with someone, I would crush my way through their sternums with my bare fists, tear their heart out and make you watch as I did it. Afterwards, I’d fuck you on top of the bloody mess on the floor.”

Ruby wanted to kiss him now more so than ever, the mad glint in his eyes exciting her. “Perhaps I have fucked someone else, perhaps I haven’t, perhaps I’ve only been choking on someone else’s cock these past two weeks” A low vulgar giggle escaped her lips.

“I know you well enough by now to know exactly what you’d do, however Warren you can sleep safe and sound knowing that I do not, nor will I ever love someone” Ruby shifted in his lap once more, wanting her body as close as possible to his. She lowered her voice and moved closer to him, “Still if you wanted to imagine I had fallen in love with someone I’m sure you could still fuck me among their innards. If that’s what you really want.”

*Warren studied Ruby as she brushed her fingers through his raven hair, all her insecurities so appallingly apparent to him, subtle as he was sure Ruby thought she were. There were so much pain behind her doe eyes.* “I am glad to hear that.” *He stroked his fingertips in a featherlight touch up her breakable spine.* “How did you occupy yourself while I was away?” *Something dark entered his eyes.* “Have you had anyone?”

“Well I had to meet with my sister and her fiance last week, something about settling on seating arrangements for their wedding” Ruby knew Warren’s was a loaded question and she knew that lunch with her sister was not what he wanted to hear about, she fought a wry smile. “Oh and I did a fair bit of shopping, none of which you’ll like of course” She paused for a long moment, staring into his face “ You’re asking if I’ve fucked anybody else? Or do other things come under the term ‘had’? ”

[rubyy-everett]

*Warren looked down at her fondly and gave a slight shake of his head, pulling her close to his body. He gave a lock of her blonde hair an admonishing tug with his left hand.* “Hush, now. I am not in the mood to paint watercolours on that ivory skin of yours today.”

*He cocked his head and looked at her pensively for a moment before leading her over to a plush chair, sitting down on it and pulling her into his lap.* “I confess to missing your presence while I was away.”

Ruby grinned, the slight tension created by the pulling of her hair enough to remind her of how much she missed Warren and his ways. “Oh but the results are so much better when you aren’t in the mood” She rocked forwards so that her toes were standing on the edge of his, attempting to irritate him just the right amount.

Ruby wriggled herself into a more comfortable position, her hand dangled over his head so that her fingers were able to absentmindedly brush through his hair. “Have you been drinking already Mr. Travers?” Accepting words of affection did not come naturally to Ruby. After a brief pause she pressed a soft kiss to Warren’s lips, her voice a mutter. “I missed you too”

[rubyy-everett]

Ruby’s short gasp broke the silence before Warren’s words did. Although she had become somewhat accustomed to his stealth, Ruby constantly found herself being caught off guard. “Hm” she replied softly, leaning back into him. “Then again there are so many perks that you must get confused in your old age” Ruby teased turning to face Warren. 

*Warren studied Ruby gazing out the window of his mansion, looking at his beautifully kept garden cloaked by shadows. He walked up behind her, his footsteps ever unsettlingly silent for a man of his stature, and ran his large hands in a caress up her bare arms. His lips quirked appreciatively.* “Your skin feels as smooth as silk. I suppose that is one of the perks of bedding an eighteen-year-old, hmm?”

Ruby’s devious smile returned, her tendency to have short-lived bursts of anger had subsided somewhat in the past months since things had been pleasant between them. Her fingers snaked their way into his dark thick hair in response to his kiss, soon she felt her body begging for air as Warren refused to pull away. She tugged forcefully at his hair, though not fully committed to having his lips leave hers. After a full day at work she yearned for his touch. Ruby’s head span as he placed her into the bath, a mixture of the heat and lack of oxygen had caused her to go slightly dizzy.

“Everything will be the way it was, you know that Warren. These things always work themselves out and next week you’ll be laughing at how upset you were. At least I will be anyway” Ruby gasped loudly as he grabbed her, pain mingling with pleasure. “You’re the greatest” She stuttered out, managing to maintain a somewhat delirious smile.
