Chapter Four: Things Fall Apart
The Sheriff was not happy about being held hostage by Robin that day. He'd have to teach the outlaw a little lesson. When Robin arrived back at the castle that night, after he had undressed, the Sheriff told him to bend over his desk.
“Why?” asked Robin.
“Just do it,” snapped the Sheriff, “you'll find out soon enough!”
Fearing what the Sheriff had in mind, Robin did as he was told. The Sheriff picked up Robin's belt off the floor and approached his desk.
“You need to be punished for your actions today,” the Sheriff said.
He hit Robin's backside with the belt. Robin hissed in pain. The Sheriff hit Robin several times, until his lower back and buttocks were covered in painful red welts. When he had finished, the Sheriff tossed the belt back on the floor.
“Next time, I'll use the end with the buckle,” he warned.
After his punishment, Robin still had to spend the night in the Sheriff's bed.

Robin returned to camp the next morning very sore. He fell asleep face down on the ground, to help alleviate the pain on his backside. Questions were asked that day, but he could not answer without giving away what he did not want them to know. The gang was all worried, especially Much. It was becoming harder to keep everything a secret.
Robin found it almost impossible to keep his secret with Tom A'Dale and his friends about. Fortunately, he did not have to worry about that for long. They were soon hanged. Robin had not been in time to save them. He apologized to a distraught Allan, but soon had to go to Knighton Hall, to help his beloved Marian.
In order to protect herself and her father, Marian agreed to marry Gisborne.
“When the king returns,” she stipulated.
Robin was under her window, when she'd said it. He was heartbroken, but understood why she had accepted the proposal. It's for the best, he told himself, she wouldn't want me if she knew what I allow the Sheriff to do.
~~~~
At camp, they had a small memorial service for Tom and the others. Soon, talk began of the Locksley girl's upcoming marriage. Much saw Robin was not with them, mentally. Physically, yes.
“Master, are you really this upset about the hanging?” he asked.
“Marian's going to marry Gisborne,” replied Robin, eyes fixed on the ground, and arms crossed.
“What?” asked Much.
He wasn't expecting that answer.
“Marian's agreed to marry Gisborne,” repeated Robin, “when the king returns.”
“I'm sorry,” said Much.
“You have nothing to be sorry for, Much,” said Robin, “you didn't cause any of this.”
~~~~
“Have you heard, Locksley?” asked the Sheriff, “Marian is going to marry Gisborne.”
“I heard,” said Robin, quietly.
He did not want to talk about it.
“Aww,” said the Sheriff, pretending to be sympathetic, “were you hoping to marry her?”
Robin turned his head away. The Sheriff grabbed Robin's chin in his hand. He stroked Robin's cheek with a free finger. Robin tried to jerk his head away, but the Sheriff tightened his grip. He kissed Robin. Not gently or lovingly, but rough and hard.
~~~~
Robin took his time getting back to camp the next morning. Much was cooking breakfast when he returned.
“You were not here when I awoke,” said Much, “where have you been?”
Robin did not reply. He just walked over to his spot and sat. Much noticed this.
“Where were you?” he asked.
“That's my own business, Much,” said Robin, not looking at him.
“Oh, well,” Much huffed and went back to his cooking. He did not much care for Robin's short temper and did not know what caused it.
Lack of sleep, maybe, but what caused that?
He'd find out, somehow.
~~~~
A few nights later, Much was awake, when he saw Robin leaving the camp. He decided to follow him. He watched Robin climb through one of the windows. Much decided he would look through that window, to see what was going on. It was a bedroom, he guessed it was the Sheriff's, since Vaysey was lying on the bed. Robin was standing at the foot of the bed, slowly undressing.
What is going on here? He wondered in confusion.
It was made clearer when Robin had finished taking his clothes off and joined the Sheriff in his bed.
~~~~
Much watched as the Sheriff rolled over and pinned Robin to the bed and laid a trail of kisses down his chest and stomach. He lightly teased Robin's nipples with his hands. A small moan escaped Robin's lips. Much looked away when the Sheriff took his hands lower. Much hid close by, out of sight and waited for his master to come out. He ended up falling asleep, but returned to wakefulness when he heard Robin climbing back out of the window. He was fully dressed and tying his neck cloth around his neck. He couldn't see Much, until Much came out of hiding.
“Hello,” said Much.
Robin gave a little startled jump.
“Much, what are you doing here?” asked Robin.
Please don't let him have seen!
“I followed you here,” said Much, “Master, I saw you in there. With the Sheriff.”
Robin paled slightly.
“Oh,” was all he said.
“Why?” asked Much, “why are you doing this?”
“Because I must,” said Robin.
“Why?” repeated Much.
Robin told him of the deal he had made with the Sheriff.
“You'll tell no one of what you saw here,” said Robin, “promise you won't tell the others about the deal. It'll be our secret.”
“Why can't I tell the others?” asked Much.
“It is not their burden to bear,” said Robin, “promise you won't say anything.”
“But...” started Much.
He knew the others would understand if they knew. He hoped.
“Please, Much,” said Robin, almost begging, “keep it secret. For me.”
Much nodded gravely.
He still didn't think keeping it secret was a good idea, but if it was so important to Robin, he'd do it.
“I promise I won't tell,” he said.
