'Oh girl, my head hurts," Davis said, "Shut the damn curtains, the light is going right through my aching eyelids." He covered his eyes, the light too bright to hide away.

She did not answer him, afraid of what he was going to do when he woke up in a strange place, having to tell him how he got here. Oh god he is going to freak out. She laughed nervously. How the hell am I gonna explain this.

"I had the strangest, most pleasant dream, I was carried off by a big handsome man, he was fine too, like Lucas. I don't know where he took me but...." At that moment, as he was speaking, he opened his eyes and saw he was not in the apartment.

He sat up fast, looked around and asked her." Am I dreaming? I am so confused. What did I do last night? Is this a dream?'' He looked around the room, gripped the ruffles of his robe, his mouth drooped downwards as his mind reviewed the last thing he could remember. And it wasn't falling asleep in a strange place. 

"No, you are awake, we are not in Kansas anymore," she answered calmly as she sat across from him on the table, her elbows on her knees, hands cupping her face.

''And why the hell not?" He looked around and saw the door with no handle. No windows and no way out. Just a large bed, a few fine furnishing and a bookcase, full of books. No TV, no radio.

"Because, he took us here, last night. You slept through it," she answered him.

'What the fuck Andie?" Where the hell are we? What did you do last night? Was this because of your stupid ass  plan to seduce the big bad vampire man and slap him in the face?'' Clearly agitated, now up and pacing. Davis continued his rant with his finger pointed in Andie's direction. No mistaking how mad he was when that finger came out. 

"You pissed him off didn't you? Now he has us both locked up. What is this place? Is there a bathroom? I have to go."

"Yes, over there, that door there, its really nice actually, all slate floors and the shower is to die for," she said nervously trying to make the situation not as bad as it was.

"Are you feeling alright? I mean, the shower is to die for? Or we gonna die in the shower hiding like them naked people in that movie! We are locked in here. Kidnapped, This isn't good Andie. Not good!" Davis was having a tantrum moment, one Andie had bought and paid for with her plan and one she had to explain a little further, knowing  this was only going to make Davis even more angry. 

"He did it to protect us, from Sloane. whoever she is. He didn't really kidnap us," She explained.

"Bull F'n Shit, and who the fuck is Sloane?" he replied, making his way up and walking to the bathroom.

The door opened and Arthur entered. "Hello Andie, lovely to see you again, I came to bring your breakfast, and coffee, for you and Bette Davis."

"What did you call me?' Davis asked now even more irritated.

"Lord Barrington, addressed you as such." Did I misunderstand him?' Arthur seemed puzzled.

"Oh really, well you can tell Lord of the panties, I don't appreciate his humor."

"Excuse me sir? Lord of the what?"

"Panties, I said panties, her panties," he shouted, pointed at Andie.

"That's enough Davis."She tried to calm him.

''Thank you so much for breakfast, and his name is Davis. Your Lord was just teasing him, that's all."

"Very well, then. If you need anything, please ring here." He showed them a button on the wall, it was marked call. "Anything you need, anything at all,'' he said as he turned to leave.

"What about these lights? can you turn them down, off? It is daytime, can you do something?" Davis griped at him.

"Yes of course, I will take care of that right away. Anything else?"

"There is something, I need to go home and get my cats,' Andie said.

"Cats? I'm sorry but you are not allowed out of this room."

"See, I told you, he kidnapped us," Davis said to her as he eyed the food. But Andie ignored him and pleaded for her cats.

''Please, they are my children, I need them. Can you go get them? I can give you my key. There are carriers for them, they are friendly, bring them to me, please. Lord Barrington, will love to see them." She lied.

"Of course, I will arrange for them to be brought here, as long as Lord Barrington will be pleased and it is for you, and he did say to make you comfortable. I shall return with them." He left the food, an assortment of muffins, breads, fruits, eggs, potatoes and coffee. Davis dug in, murmuring under his breath about being called Bette Davis.

 Davis devoured his breakfast. "Well at least he has the decency to feed us well," he muttered, as he gulped his last forkful. "How long do you think we are staying? I need my clothes. Look around for a pen."

He rang the buzzer and a voice came asking what he needed.

"I would like a pen and some paper, please.''

"Right away sir," the man replied.

"See, not so bad, right?' Andie asked.  

A knock came to the door, a pen and paper on a shining tray.

"Thank you," Davis said, as he took it, and the door closed. He wrote his list, all his clothes that were in the apartment, all the gowns and the his tiara, and a few extras. He rang the buzzer again and man came on asking what he needed.

"I need to speak to Arthur, please." He looked over at Andie, he was starting to like the buzzer.

''Arthur here sir.''

''Yes, Arthur, I have a list, just a few things I need from Miss Andie's apartment and a store close by. Before you leave."

''Of course sir, I will be right there."

''And Arthur, I would like some soft scented soaps, for the bath, I don't see any. Ya know, bubble bath soaps." He didn't hear a reply, only mumbled voices. "And some fresh cut flowers, and a radio, a DVD player and wide screen TV."

''Of course, sir I will take care this as well.'' Davis took his hand off the buzzer,smiling and twirling his hair. He was going to enjoy his stay, and Lucas was going to pay for it.

Later in the day the cats arrived, along with all the gowns and clothes he needed and whatever else he had sent them out for. The room soon looked like a dressing room for a Broadway show, clothes piled high, gowns thrown all over, make-up, wigs, bottles of wine, flowers, candy, and the cats laying across the bed. Pattii LaBelle Videos on the wide screen and Davis singing and dancing to New Attitude, in full drag.

He rang the buzzer all morning and afternoon, the staff running in all directions. Whatever he wanted they brought him. Until he rang the buzzer and Lucas answered him.
