"Yes, of course. It should get very loud here soon. They do a lot of shouting, and full exercises for the next hour or so."
Anne led the way, moving past already occupied homes, and past on to ones that were either being restored, or being moved into. Loads of useless items were being moved from the homes and piled into the street, ready to be dismantled and disposed of: Televisions, phones, computers, anything that used to rely on electricity to work. These were useless now, though the materials they were made out of were invaluable as trade. The plastic and metal could be melted down and used for other things, and Katya could now see why the settlement had so many traders come through.
"This one is current not spoken for. Not as big as the rest, but still very nice wouldn't you say?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Daddy, help me get up. I...I don't want to still be laying down when she gets back."
Polly got to her feet with her father's help, ready to find the water trough and bathe herself. She must have been a sight, and she needed to look her best for when Katya came back. She had other clothes, or rather ones that Katya had left behind, and she couldn't wait to be dressed and ready for her when they got back.
"Honey, you need to get back into bed..."
"Dad, please. Please just help me get to the bath. I want to be clean and ...unh...ung...God that hurts..."
Polly wobbled on her legs and fell forward, falling unconscious. Robert ran to her side, picking her up with some strain and moving her back into the bed. He could see red blood beginning to pool through the bandage, and he quickly placed her back on her stomach, removing it and stopping the bleeding. She had torn open the wound, and he replaced the bandage and kept pressure on it until the flow ceased. This woman was making her act like a foolish child, and she was going to hurt herself if she didn't stop trying to make the woman happy. He covered her up, and left her on her stomach while he went to the kitchen to calm down. He had to calm down before he said or did something rash.

the house was nice, lounge, kitchen, master bedroom and guest room, main bathroom and a quite large basement that looked to have been made for storage and shelter, it was actually larger in size than the house above and got plenty of light through the use of several hurricane lamps and some natural light windows.
Katya was already finalising ideas for what to do with the extra basement space when they got back. Katya was first through the door but then froze when she smelled the air. she smelled copper and iron. Blood. She started towards polly when her father stopped right in her way, mouth open and eye's angry ready to shout at her. She didn't even stop moving as she body checked him out of her way. His look of surprise as he fell on his ass would have been hilarious had Katya not been solely focused on polly and the blood soaked bandage on her back.
Polly stirred as she got closer, and started to smile until she looked at polly's face. Then she paled, Katya was furious with the girl.
she grabbed her earlobe and twisted it like a parent would do to a dis-behaving child. "Did I not tell you before NOT to injure yourself for my sake you little idiot?!" she had no doubt in her mind that she was the reason polly had somehow torn her wound open. and it made her angrier.

Polly tried not to twist in the woman's grasp, a whimper coming from her lips as she placed a hand on Katya's wrist, trying to get her ear free. It felt like the woman was going to tear it off, and she realized if the woman had truly meant her harm, she could have. She still squirmed, but stopped resisting, realizing she had earned this by being too careless about her injury.
"I'm sorry! I thought I was in better shape than I was. I'm sorry Katya, I promise I'll rest and recover before I do anything stupid again."
She felt her cheeks burn with shame, both for being spoken to like this in front of her parents, and for the fact that Katya couldn't leave her alone long enough to look at the settlement without Polly trying to kill herself.
Anne stepped forward, and put a hand on Katya's shoulder, drawing her attention away from the wounded girl. It wasn't a move of anger, more of understanding. While her father was clearly upset, he didn't say anything, instead watching and seeing how this plays out.
"I think she's learned her lesson. And we will all be here to make sure she has what she needs to recover quickly and safely. Let go of her ear before you take it off by accident."

katya got a small grin at that, "trust me, if I wanted to, I could, and would quite deliberately." she held on for another second, to make the point to polly before she let go of her ear and held her head with the same hand, stroking gently with her thumb. "you got shot only 5 days ago polly, with this it'll take a week or two at least for it to heal enough to move around without fear of it tearing."
she looked over to anne, "she probably also forgot to tell you that her right wrist is dislocated. your daughter has a bad habit of putting others happiness before looking after herself." she smiled a bit sadly, "its a truly humbling habit, but also very annoying for those who care about her."

Polly blushed even further at that, wanting to bury her head in the pillow to keep from further embarrassment. She hadn't forgotten, but she was more concerned about her back, and of course making sure Katya had been taken care of.
"Please, someone just get the doctor before I die of embarrassment. Or my wounds."
She remembered when one of her friends had dislocated her shoulder falling from a tree. She had screamed in pain when it had been reset. How badly was her wrist going to hurt? It couldn't be worse than being shot, that was for sure. She would put on a brave face, and try to keep from looking weak in front of Katya. She wanted to be tough, to at least pretend like she could take care of herself. It would make the woman worry less, and that was something she wanted.
"I don't sleep well on my stomach. I hope I can at least lay on my back soon."

"you will sleep on your stomach for as long as necessary young lady."
katya grinned even further at polly further reddening, and she could hear anna almost catch a laugh, and her father chuckled. "so how young are you anyway? we never really discussed it. what are you? 17? 18?"
"she's 17." katya turned to face polly's father, "so how old are you katya? 30's" "Ronald!" anna said loudly, smacking her husband with the back of her hand.
"well if you must know Ronald then this year I turn to the ripe age of 22. is that too old for your taste?" she said eyebrow raised.

To Polly this was every person's worst nightmare, when their lover finally met their parents. This was a bit of an unusual case, even taking the apocalypse into consideration, but still she was trying to find the smallest hole she could to hide in. She wasn't sure if her father was giving Katya a hard time on purpose, or if he was in one of his playful moods. Sometimes his sense of humor could be a little twisted, and he had to know that he was embarrassing her terribly.
"Mom, please take dad outside and shoot him. Or go get the doctor, either one."
She buried her head in her pillow, not wanting to make eye contact with anyone at the moment, waiting for the humiliation to finally stop.

"not at all," Ronald now had a mischievous twinkle in his eye, "I was simply curious if whether my daughter was into older women. she is certainly into a more dominant partner. like mother like daughter I suppose."
"Ronald! we're in front of..." anne got cut off by Ronald kissing her hard, and when he broke it off she was panting slightly.
"Like mother like daughter indeed it seems." Katya cackled, "she certainly does like a firm hand to guide her."
Both parents heads whipped around then, incredulous looks at both katya and polly. then dawning understanding showed, and anne grinned and laughed. and Ronald chuckled. "Is your wife a screamer too?" katya chuckled, causing the 3 too laugh even harder.

Polly finally came to the conclusion that she had indeed died, and was currently residing in Hell. There was simply no other way to put it. She had gone from embarrassed, to mortified about Polly discussing their sex life, to wanting to curl into a ball and die when her parents had been discussing theirs. The three of them seem to enjoy torturing her, and she was desperate for them to go away before anything else came out.
"Please mom. PLEASE take dad and get the doctor, or I swear I'll walk there myself."
She wanted to get Katya away from them as soon as she could, and hopefully be spared any other details about her parents bedroom life. It was far more than any person needed to know about their parents, and she was certain if she gave Katya time, they would hear even more details that would scar her for life.

when the laughter finally died down to slight choking, Ronald took his wife by the hand and lead her out the door, "take care of my daughter."
when the door closed behind them, katya turned to her lover, still chuckling. "well that was certainly interesting."
she got out of most of her clothing before getting into the bed with polly, putting a hand onto her ass. "lets just get some rest okay love, don't worry, I'm right here."

Polly finally looked up from the pillow, and sighed contentedly when the woman got into bed with her. It made her feel a little more protected, a little more safe as Katya's warm body pressed against hers. She was also glad the woman wasn't still mad at her, or being distant.
"Help me sleep well, I'll do the same. I think I need a good rest after what just happened."
She silently prayed that she didn't have any nightmares about her parents and Katya getting together for more family talks. When they had a place of their own, she'd have to make sure the conversations never went that direction. She'd probably have to shoo her father out the door if it did.

"I saw the house your mother chose, I approve. it has everything needed to make our own Bondage Dungeon. I should ask for some good wood and leather." Katya enjoyed lying next to her lover, it was peaceful. "I'm thinking of taking the compounds truck with a few hands and raiding the brothel, taking everything for the house. I remember you enjoyed the Egyptian cotton sheets."
she chuckled at polly's blush, and kissed her forehead. "don't worry pet, your mistress will take care of you. now sleep,"

Polly smiled again, closing her eyes and letting sleep take her. She didn't realize she was as tired as she was, but she fell out faster than she ever had before. As she lay there, cuddled and loved, she didn't dream, just simply slept and rested. It was the first time in a long time she didn't dream about anything.
It seemed like a short nap, but when she awoke she felt Katya stirring against her, squirming more than she normally did. She rolled over onto her side, grimacing in pain to see her struggling in her sleep. Another nightmare, but what about she wondered. She made quiet shushing noises, and held her close for a while, falling asleep again with the woman murmuring unintelligibly against her cheek.

this time was different. this time the nightmare was that polly's had hadn't been able to stop the bleeding, and she had bled out while katya was unable to move at all, paralyzed. Every nightmare was like a constant voice stating that when the chips were down and whoever katya loved needed her the most, she couldn't help, and could only watch them die.
The nightmare dimmed however when she felt a warmth surrounding her and a gentle shushing noise entered her sleep. In her nightmare addled mind it was as if an angel had come down to protect and comfort her. Slowly the nightmare faded, and only the warmth remained, making her heart feel full and the shadows of her past seemed to lighten.
when katya finally woke up, she smiled gently at the sight of her lover on her side, comforting her even in sleep. It truly was humbling that such a angelic creature could love such a broken creature, but then her angel was too gentle for this horrid world. "Perhaps we both require collars." Katya murmured softly, "a slave's for you and a guard dog's for me."

Polly slept for a while longer, whimpering a little when she moved, the pain finally waking her. She was slow to open her eyes, just enjoying being close to Katya as they both woke. It was dark out, by the looks of it had been so for a while. She knew this was going to be throwing her sleep cycle off, but she didn't care. It was worth it.
"I wonder where my parents went. They should have been back with the Doctor by now. Think they just let us sleep?"
She turned back onto her stomach, alleviating the pain in her back. She let out a contented sigh and kissed the woman's shoulder, giving her a weak smile.
"I hope the injury gets me out of carrying hay for a little while. I hate moving hay."
