Hi all! Ashleigh Aishwarya here again. This is the 2nd version of my previous Halo: Reach story, "This Love Is Ours". I got more inspiration and decided to do a 2nd version; one that will have more Jorge/Six moments leading to their confessions for each other. But the idea that "this love will always be theirs" is still in here :)
*Once again, like I said on my 1st version of this Jorge/Six fan-fic, this is NOT to be taken seriously. It's just a simple love story, but I'm trying to follow the actual storyline & timeline as much as I can. I know that Spartans don't express their emotions and feelings and such. So I would appreciate if here would be no reviews on stuff like that. If you don't like romance, then please do not continue reading. Thank you.*
So here it is: The reprised version of "This Love Is Ours" :)
Halo: Reach – Jorge & Noble Six – "This Love Is Ours" (2nd Version)
{~~~Winter Contingency~~~}
(From Noble Six's point of view)
The Covenant was on Reach. Perfect. It couldn't get any worse than that. Cater was busy breaking the news to Holland. The rest of us, Kat, Emile, Jun, Jorge and I were waiting for further orders.
Jorge was still looking out for the Hungarian girl. He was still talking to her, comforting her. I mean, I didn't understand Hungarian, but I pretty much can tell, given the situation the poor girl was in.
Just then, Carter walked in. "Well, just broke the news to Holland. We're done here, Noble. We're going to head back to command. Stand by for transport."
"Yes, Sir." We said in unison.
"What about the girl?" Jorge asked.
"She's coming with us. We're gonna take her somewhere safe and secure." Carter answered.
"Alright, Sir." Jorge was satisfied with that.
Jorge had a great deal of concern for the girl. It's something I've seen before, whenever I was sent to recuse civilians. I would be concerned for the safety of the survivors too, but Jorge, Jorge was beyond that. He wanted to really make sure that she was going to be okay.
I knew exactly what Sára was going through though. I knew her pain. The Covenant, the monsters, they took my family away from me too. I wanted to tell her my story on how I had to watch them die, but God knows I can't speak Hungarian to save my own life. She would understand a few words of English, but still, it wouldn't help.
I heard Jorge speak to her after what Carter said. He was probably telling her about what the plan was. She seemed a little uncertain, but then she nodded.
Jorge then walked away from her and headed towards me. "You seemed a little concerned." He said.
"What? Oh." I was taken away from my thoughts. "Just wondering about the girl. How is she doing?"
"Sára? She'll be okay. Just needs a full psychiatric workup, like I said."
I nodded. "Okay." And I looked back at Sára.
Jorge sensed something was up with me. He titled his head slightly, trying to figure out my emotion through my helmet. "Something's bothering you, Six. What's wrong?"
"Nothing." I lied. I didn't like talking about my feelings. It's not what I'm here to do.
"You know, talking about it always makes it better." He said.
"I'm fine, Jorge. But thanks for your concern." I ended the conversation, and walked away.
Jorge stood there and watched me leave. He was certain something was wrong with me and he was going to do anything he could to make sure I confess to him about it. One thing about Jorge was that he wasn't a quitter. But in this case? I'd ask him to quit while he was ahead. There was no way he was going to get me to talk.
