Nightshift 34: F21-30 Hallway

[F22]

SHE'D FALLEN ASLEEP?!?

Falis stood in the middle of her room STARING at her roommate's sleeping form. "No, no, no, no! This isn't fucking happening," the bounty hunter growled as her stare turned into a furious glare. "You need to get your ass out of this room tonight."

No response. Senna continued to sleep peacefully, unaware of the blonde with the barely contained rage focused on her. Granted, this was Falis' fault for not making it clear right away that the room was off-limits for the night, but even she didn't fall asleep that fast and that soundly. And certainly not when there was a very dangerous, very angry person practically standing over her.

Fuck.

Falis clenched and unclenched her hands a few times and then whirled around, her temper getting the better of her. She snatched her sword up off the bed and, pivoting, brought it down upon Senna. It was only the realization that her roommate's decapitated corpse laying in the room would probably completely turn Hokuto off that caused the bounty hunter to halt her blade a mere breath away from Senna's head. She stepped back and stared down at her roommate, occassionally raising her sword as if to slash down at the sleeping form again before lowering it.

She eventually started to pace as she waited, frustrated and upset, toeing that line of just letting her rage take her over and killing her roommate. How DARE she fall asleep?!? Falis paused in her pacing to lash out at Senna, only stopping herself partway through the stroke again. She shook her blade at the girl as she trembeled in contained rage.

Why TONIGHT????

"Heh heh heh."

Falis shifted to straddle Hokuto and sat up to look down at the other girl. She drew her nails slowly down Hokuto's stomach, extracting her other hand to grasp the edge of the vest.

"Now what am I going to do with you..."

Whatever it is, just do it already! Hokuto wanted to beg. "If I offered any suggestions, would you take them?" she murmured, perfectly calm and collected... compared to how she could be. She could guess just how much her expression gave away.

"Oh... I don't know... offer one and see what happens," Falis replied coyly as took Hokuto's hand. She turned it over and brought her lips down upon the inside of her girlfriend's wrist. Crimson eyes flickered up to look at the other's.

Hokuto sat up and leaned close, looking into Falis' eyes. After a moment, she whispered, "Then hurry up," and kissed her again, more urgently than before. They didn't know how much time they had, and as much as she wanted to savor the moment, she could do that next time.

To get the point across, she slipped her hand up Falis' shirt and undid the clasp of her bra. Next would come the rest of the uniform.

Ah.,.. patience was something Hokuto lacked and... well, Falis had taken pleasure in tormenting her girlfriend long enough.

Since Hokuto was being slightly aggressive, Falis responded by pressing her chest up against Hokuto's as she pushed the vest of the others' outfit off her shoulders. As she followed through with getting the vest to the floor, that smirk hit her face again. She quickly caught Hokuto's wrist and held them both in a tight grip. The princess slowly brought them down to pin the girl's wrists to the bed.

She looked deep into the other's eyes, just out of reach of a kiss for a moment. "You're mine," she said, her naturally husky voice dropped even lower, something slightly primal slipping into the tones. She leaned in as if she was going to kiss her girlfriend before pulling back at the last second. She then gave Hokuto a wicked smile before releasing the other girl's hands, her own immediately going for the bottom hem of the black shirt.

It was in the way.

"And you, mine," Hokuto murmured to her girlfriend in return--and then pounced on her.

~ * ~

Sometime later, Hokuto noticed that she had something draped over her--maybe a thin blanket, she wasn't sure--and even that was too much. She grumbled a little, trying to push it off her without looking. She was still way overheated, and being curled up with Falis only made her feel even more feverish.

She still wouldn't have traded it for anything; she snuggled up with her lover more and let out a soft sigh. She wasn't going anywhere if she could help it.

Falis lay on her side uninjured side, blonde hair messily spread all around her, and half-on Hokuto, as she gently traced the marks she'd left on the girl's back. Her girlfriend snuggled closer and the princess chuckled a little, leaning down to kiss her softly.

"Mmmm..." she purred before propping her head back up to just watch the other girl. Her fingers moved up to slip into sweat-dampened black hair and push the small amount that had fallen forward back from Hokuto's face.

An uncharacteristic soft, warm smile touched Falis' face. Hokuto looked so very content.

Hokuto opened her eyes and smiled back; whatever else happened, this was a night to remember. No matter what happens to me, I hope. She wasn't afraid of what the future held for her, but she didn't want to forget who she had been.

But this wasn't the time for that. All they had for sure was this moment, and she wasn't going to ruin it with useless worries. She leaned in to kiss Falis again; she'd been drifting in and out of sleep, but not deeply enough not to feel who was curled up beside her.

After becoming the feared bounty hunter, Falis had lived her life on a basic set of principle - see, want, take, have. Sure, it had gotten her into a lot of trouble and a lot of tight places, but she'd managed to pull through. Being the princess with responsibilities and promises to keep, she still mostly lived her life by that philosophy. It's just the things she saw and wanted had changed from the baser, materialistic things to the less tangible.

Even now, as she lay in bed with Hokuto, she was still following that simple path. She'd wanted this girl curled up against her and... she'd taken her. Oh... yes she'd taken her. The princess smirked but soon that look disappeared for the soft affectionate one she'd had when Hokuto opened her eyes to gaze up at her.

She shifted so she was looking more directly at Hokuto. She trailed her fingertips down the girl's face, tracing her lip with her thumb. She looked at her for a long moment before speaking.

"...say my name?"

Hokuto put her hand over the other girl's, just looking up at her; she had absolutely no inclination to get up, she was that worn out, but in the best way possible. "Falis," she said softly. The bounty hunter turned princess knew what it was like to want to hold onto an identity, didn't she? It wasn't exactly the same, but it was still close.

Cuddling was nice too... hopefully they could do this much during the day, at least. Because... this felt good in a way not much else did.

The bounty hunter closed her eyes as she heard her name - her real name. It was so rare for her to ever hear it and she basked in the sound of it rolling off of Hokuto's tongue. She laced her fingers with the hand upon hers and opened her eyes, something truly warm and grateful deep within them. It was a look maybe only one or two other people had ever seen.

Falis shifted again and slid more down into the bed, resting her head on Hokuto's chest. She closed her eyes and listened to the girl's heartbeat.

"Say it again..."

Hokuto hugged her close, murmuring her girlfriend's name again; she was keeping her voice down because in such a quiet moment, it felt right (...and her throat kind of hurt), but she wasn't speaking in a bare whisper. Nobody was around to hear them.

It was a little soon to add "my love", but she was tempted.

"...thank you," Falis replied in a quiet voice.

The combination of her earlier exertion as well as the lingering effects of her injuries drove the blonde to exhaustion. As she lay there in her girlfriend's arms, sword in easy reach, she felt safe. The steady rise and fall of Hokuto's chest soon lulled her into sleep.

A few minutes later...

"ZZZZZzzzzzzZZZZZZzzzzzz..."

That feeling allowed her to fall into the deep sleep her liked so much, the time when her body rebuilt itself back up enough for her to claim she healed fast. She really didn't but, still, it seemed like it. Unfortunately, with the deep sleep came the loud snoring.

Hokuto groaned a little, but had to chuckle a moment later. How did a bounty hunter who probably had to sleep in hidden shelters once in a while snore this loudly? No way the princess's borrowed body could be the real cause.

She snuggled up, anyway, knowing she was too sleepy to be kept awake just by that, and drifted back into dreamland.

Eventually, after an indeterminable time, Falis woke up. She was warm and comfortable and... still laying on Hokuto. Feeling rested, she smirked and slid up just enough to curl her tongue around Hokuto's ear, hoping to tease the other girl awake. As an added bonus, she trailed her nails lightly down Hokuto's stomach.

The princess was wondering how far down her hand would go before Hokuto fully woke up...

Hokuto had been slowly waking up because of the sudden lack of sound, anyway; the light touch on her stomach made her shiver and open her eyes. It's not morning yet...? She hoped not--she didn't want to wake up alone.

Seeing Falis made her smile; good, she was still there. She leaned over and kissed her again, much longer than she would ever dare to do when they weren't behind locked (well, barricaded) doors. Pulling back just enough to talk, she whispered, "Rested enough?"

That didn't take long...

Falis made an appreciative sound in the back of her throat as she was kissed, stopping her hand's southern decent... for the moment. That noise turned into a little growl as she answered the question posed to her.

"Oh yeah." She ducked her head down to bite her girlfriend's neck, toeing that line between pain and pleasure, before bringing her lips to the girl's ear. "You may find that I am a rather insatiable creature," she said in a low voice.

I noticed! Hokuto had thought being in shape due to karate would help her stamina. That had turned out to be debatable.

She didn't care. "Seize the day, right?" It would be a while before they could do this again under the best of circumstances, and she'd slept long enough.

Falis, of course, did not get the colloquial phrase, taking it more at face value than one was meant to. She pushed herself up to look down at Hokuto.

"I'm more of the seize right now mindset," she replied. A challenging look settled in her eyes. "The better question is - can you keep up? I've already worn you out once..."

"Only one way to find out." To prove she was recovered enough, Hokuto pounced her. She'd come to enjoy taking Falis by surprise--and half the fun was in the challenge.

Losing themselves in the moment was more than fine by her.

She hadn't been kidding when she said she was all about seizing the right now. Falis was all for losing herself in the moment and lose herself she did. Hokuto did manage to surprise her, rising to the challenge and meeting it with one of her own as long as she could. Somehow the covers ended up on the floor and one of them managed to nick themselves a little on her sword's blade; Falis wasn't sure which one of them did and she probably wouldn't have been able to feel it at this point if it had been her.

It probably was an extremely shallow, superficial cut anyways.

Flat on her back, head toward the foot of the bed, Falis lay panting as she stated up at the ceiling. Eyes slightly glazed over and unfocused, she had a strangely content smile on her face as she half-pawed at Hokuto, beckoning her closer.

Hokuto crawled over and lay down with her head on Falis' chest, as worn out as she could remember being for a long while. Wouldn't it be great if we could go for a third round? There was pretty much no way that was happening, but she could dream.

And probably will... a lot... she smiled, drowsily. If Kakyou really was visiting her, she hoped he wouldn't mind...

"Oh, wow, are you a fast learner," Falis said between pants, wrapping her arms lazily about Hokuto. She was quite pleased with how little direction she had to give this time, though she really hadn't given much the first time.

She blinked her eyes back into focus and drew Hokuto into a long, appreciative kiss, humming a bit in the back of her throat. She idly wondered if they'd managed to wake Senna up since the girl had been trying to sleep next door.

Would serve her right.
