[darkfox1]

Name: Damien Saunders
Age: 21
Appearance:
Back Story: He was born and raised in the city. He has never even seen a farm except in different movies. He has been in a down spiral ever since he graduated form college with his associates degree and had no where to go with his career or life for that matter. He has started drinking and driving to different city bars to get drunk with no one he knows. Now he was pulled over in a country town and now instead of just being sent to jail he is now forced to live on a farm for 3 months to "become a better person".

Damien was in this guys truck that was the sheriff when on the clock. Right now to him he was driving him to his personal hell. He has never worked a hard day in his life and now he was sentenced to work on his farm to become a better person, which probably was going to take until the rest of his miserable life. He smiled at his torture to come and sighed.

He could see the "farm" up ahead. He has never seen one so close so he had not a single clue of what to expect at all. He sighed as the sheriff pulled into the driveway in front of the house and honked the horn. As he got out he started to find his bag and items out of the back. He hoped this was going to be way better than he hoped it to be.

Spoiler

Name: Anna-Marie Fahey
Age: 19
Appearance: (Pretend she has blonde hair please. ^^)

"But dad, this isn't right!" A short blonde haired girl shouted from across the kitchen.

"I don't care what you think Anna. This is what your mother and I decided, and this is what's going to happen. You will respect our wishes and also help out." Mark growled, never once bothering to put down his newspaper.

Anna let out a frustrated sigh and marched outside, before sitting down on one of the steps leading towards the house. She was dressed in a strapless, brown sundress with a black belt that fit around the waist. On her feet she wore a pair of leather cowboy boots that came up just above her ankles. Her short blonde hair was pulled back with a small butterfly shaped barrette, showing even more of her large blue eyes.

Anna was beyond upset right now, not understand why her parents would do something so stupid. This guy was a criminal, what if he tried to hurt them or steal from them? Who knows what he was capable of really. Then again, Anna didn't really know why he was coming here in general. She just knew that he had done something bad and her parents were offered a decent sum of money to take the boy in for the year and have him work for them. Anna didn't really mind not having to do work now, but she still didn't trust him alone, especially with the animals.

Anna was snapped out of her thoughts as a large truck came down the driveway. She let out a sigh, but stood up and told her father. Within seconds both Mark and his wife Stacy were standing outside, waiting for their new worker.

Damien sighed as he soon saw three people outside waiting for him to get out of the truck. He thanked the sheriff for the ride as he nodded to the man outside waiting for him and drove off. He walked over to them holding his bags behind his back. "Hello. The name is Damien." He said holding out his hand towards the male that seemed to be the father of the house. He wanted to show that he had some respect for them. After all they were basically housing him for a year tops.

[Satellite Skin]

"Hello Damien, my name is Mark, and this is my wife Stacy." The large man said as he gestured to the small women beside him. Mark was clearly not one to mess with. Standing about 6'5 and weighing over 200 pounds, he was big. Not that it was all fat, he had a good deal of muscle on him. Not someone you would normally see living on a farm. Stacy on the other hand was small, much like Anna. She only stood around 5'4 and had a slim shape to her. Her hair was the same blonde color as Anna, but hers was worn short and curly.

Anna watched the kid from the porch, not bothering to come and say hello. She heard that his name was Damien, how suiting. She let out a frustrated sigh and turned to walk into the house, but was stopped dead in her tracks by her father calling to her. "Anna! Anna don't be rude and come down here and introduce yourself." Mark growled as he glared at the girl. Anna knew better than to fight her father, so she did as she was told, though she wasn't friendly about it. "Hi, I'm Anna." She said flatly as she stared at the guy in front of her.

[darkfox1]

Damien could tell that she didn't want anything to do with him. "Nice to meet you." He said nodding to her. It was a shame because she was very attractive. He had to shake the thought away. That was the last thing he needed right now was to get attached to anyone in this house or town for that matter. He smiled a little and looked back at the father respectfully.

"Where should I put my bags sir?" He asked wanting to make sure he was as respectful as possible. He would never be this nice to his father ever in his life. But he was strong and powerful looking. That was the last thing he needed to be as well and that was in a hospital. He smiled a little. "I really would like to thank you for taking me into your home even over something as simple as going to jail for drunk driving." He said scratching his head a little with a sigh.

[Satellite Skin]

Anna shook her head at the kids complete lies. She knew damn well that he wasn't happy to be here, if he was, then there was something wrong with him. "As simple?" Anna questioned, glaring at him the whole time. "Drunk driving isn't something simple. You could have killed someone! Do you know how many people die from people like you drinking and driving?" She asked as she raised her voice. Mark twisted around, giving Anna another one of his stares. She knew right away what it meant, but she was so beyond angry at this point she didn't even care. She couldn't believe the nerve this kid had. 'Something as simple as drunk driving'.

"No dad! Do you hear him?" She exclaimed. "How can you just not say anything to that?" She asked in confusion. "You're all insane, especially insane to let some criminal move into our place!" She hissed, not caring if she hurt his feelings our not. Before she could get in another word however, her father grabbed her by the arm and dragged her inside. After about ten minutes of yelling inside, the two both came outside again, this time Anna's face was blank.

"I'm sorry about that." Mark said with an almost fake smile. "Now Anna, will you go show our guest where he will be staying?" Anna nodded slowly, before walking back down the porch steps and towards a small house in the distance. She gestured for Damien to follow without uttering a single word.

[darkfox1]

Damien could tell that he had done something to her to make her stop so he didn't say anything to her. He was going to explain to her that to him it was a small thing. That he had no true values and all that stuff like that but she was no way in the mood and he didn't want her to be alright from her father. Once they were away from her father he cleared his throat and followed her still to see where he would be staying. "I'm sorry." He said quietly so only she would hear. He hoped that she knew what he was saying it for.

He looked around the farm through the house windows. "So what all work do you normally do around here so I can get a good idea of what I have been signed up to do?" He asked her trying to change the subject. He really wanted her to not hate his guts. It was going to be hell if she hated him and he was already going to have major cravings for alcohol and cigarettes any moment now.

Mark hadn't laid a hand on her, but he did have a way with words. His size alone was intimidating enough and when added with threats, it could change even the toughest of men. It was something that Anna honestly never got use to. Of course he never actually hit her, he had his own forms of punishment. She glanced over at Damien slowly, her eyes practically looking straight through him. "You don't even know what happened. Don't pity me." She said bluntly.

Finally they came to a small house a few feet away from their actual home. This was usually used as a guest house, but people rarely ever came over these days. "This is were you'll be staying. There is to be no smoking, no drugs or alcohol. From what the cops said, the only time you can leave this property is if you're with one of us so don't think about sneaking girls in here. Also, if you think you're smart enough to sneak out at night, don't. My father has cameras all over this place and at night we put the dogs outside so they'll bark the minute they hear you. Which, will wake up my father and you really don't want to deal with him." She said coldly as she pushed opened the door and stepped inside.

The place was small, just enough room for one or maybe two people. Through the front door was the living room that lead to two doors. The one on the right lead to the bathroom and the one on the left was the bedroom, complete with a TV, full sized bed and desk. Opposite of the living room was a small kitchen with a round table and two dining chairs. The place wasn't bad, Anna herself actually tried to convince her parents to live here once or twice, but they didn't trust her enough to be on her own.

"You will be doing what I usually do. At 6am sharp you have to go out and feed the four horses we own, along with the dogs and the chickens. After that you have to clean out the stables and brush down the horses. Watch out for Stella, the white horse, she likes to bite. At noon we have lunch and after that you can take a two hour break. When you're done with that you must feed everyone again and let the horses out into the pastor. I guess I'll be stopping by every now and again to make sure you're doing it correct."

Damien had not a single clue what he was in for once she started telling him his daily duties for the next year. He had never worked a single hard day in his life and it was not just an expression. He truly believed it. This was why he was here. He screwed up and now he had to pay the price by "becoming a better person". He had no idea how long it was going to take but this was not going to be a little cake walk like everyone says it is.

He looked around the small house in disbelief that people actually live in houses that small. His apartment in the city was way bigger than this and his was a small one bedroom in a city flat. Damien could see pretty much everything someone could need in here but as he walked around he just felt so claustrophobic. When Anna finished explaining, he looked over at her with a sigh. "Wow. That sure is a lot to do every day." He said sitting down on one of the chairs in the computer.

"You get use to the size." She said softly as she noticed him glance around. "It seems small now, but it's a lot better than what my father originally wanted to do with you, which was stick you up in the attic." She shrugged slightly, before moving towards the small couch in the living room and sitting down. "He figured it wasn't a good idea though, because you would only be like... Two feet from my bedroom and my father is kind of crazy and thinks the worst of me, so he thought we'd sneak around and do stuff I guess." Anna wasn't one to just mess around with people at all, she had to have feelings for them and well Damien was rather cute, she couldn't forget what he had done.
