Touch.
Getting food from the mess hall, she trips, ever so slightly, into me, her hand briefly contacting mine. Whispering something to me, quietly, so meathead can't hear, her eyelashes, like a butterfly, brush the side of my head. Sparring, her foot darts out to trip me, and our feet connect...just before my face connects with the ground.
I feel her sword, softly touching just between my shoulder blades, and i feel her voice, laughingly say I won. Again. Are you sure you're trying? I laugh – what is the point in trying, if she is going to beat me anyway? She helps me up, but uses a bit more force then nessesary. I am propelled to within an inch of her face, and her nose touches mine.
She looks shocked, mixed with...something else. And then... nothing. Her Yamani face is back again. She bows, thanksme for being a worthy opponent, and eaves the feilds, walking in the direction of Neal and Yuki's Chambers.
I do not know why she used that face, after having disregarded it for so long, but it is a mystery.
I love mysteries.
Okay, didn't turn out how I meant. Was meant to be Dom, reflecting on Kel, and the Mysteries of Touch. Oh well. I like it. Please, sent me
