You guys wanted more Warnette… I love this ship so much. Hope you enjoy. Thank you for being supportive. With love.
(Juliette's POV)
Warner and I are in a meeting right now.
His
eyes
holy
cow.
His green eyes are staring at me. A blush rises to my face, remembering what happened in this room just before the meeting. He mouths to me, "tonight."
I sit up a little straighter. He smirks for a quick second.
Neither of us wants to break our gaze until a council member starts talking to Warner.
Once the meeting's over I give him a kiss and tell him, "see you soon." He smiles.
But, Warner had to go to yet another meeting. I currently am in our bed, waiting for him. I want to wait and wait for forever, but I can't help that I fall asleep.
A dream floods into my vision. I'm flashed back to the office room where I got shot in the chest… by my boyfriend's dad.
Our relationship is a bit strange, I know.
Then, the bullet zips through my body.
Warner just laughs.
I wake up screaming. I'm out of bed so quickly I hit my head on my nightstand. My head hurts for less than a second. If you want to get technical, I've had a lot worse.
I don't even need to check and see if Warner's there. He's not. He would have woken me up when the nightmare started. I wouldn't have to have seen that stupid dream… again.
My heart stops pounding one slow second at a time. His office light is on. I have to keep telling myself it was just a dream. He's just working… at three forty five in the morning.
I go to the bathroom and take a shower.
When I'm done I put on my suit. I guess I can start getting ready.
Warner runs into the bathroom as I zip up my suit. "What's wrong? What happened?"
He calms his breathing rate, "I just-I thought-you were gone."
"You know I'm not leaving any time soon," I say. He moves behind me. He holds me from behind. He moves my hair and starts trailing me with kisses.
"Why are you up so early?" He asks, playing with the suit's zipper.
"Some of us can't sleep either," I say. He stops kissing me.
"I'm sorry I wasn't there."
"Where were you? I waited. You said at the meeting, "tonight." You weren't there."
He sighs, "I know. But, you understand, more than anyone else, how those council members are." His eyes plead with me. I relent and kiss his mouth.
His kisses go
down
and
down
until he says, "I can feel your disappointment in me, love."
"Not exactly in you," I say, "in the fact we have to stop now." I zip my suit back onto my body.
"But, we could just skip training for today!" He protests. My zipper is down and my suit is coming off.
I zip my suit back on again. "Aaron, we can't miss training… again."
He snorts into laughter, "But, skipping training is always fun with you, love."
"Come on," I say. I hold my hand out. He takes it and we walk into the training room. I'm excited for today. Kenji got new weights for me to use. I say bye to Aaron and start walking towards Kenji. Too suddenly, a two hundred pound weight crushes into my body. Aaron looks over, concerned, but I'm okay and he can see that.
Kenji sighs, "Well doesn't that take all the fun out of it. I mean, come on Princess, at least give me some entertainment!"
"Okay, okay!" I say back. "Sorry, let's go again."
"Warner, can you come over here?" Kenji asks. Warner sighs and puts down his weights. I think it's a crime to the world to make him stop weightlifting. Some people, like myself, really were enjoying the view until Kenji took that away.
Warner stands next to me, he asks Kenji, "What do you want?"
"Can you throw this at her?" Kenji asks, gesturing to the… six hundred pound weight. Warner lifts it with the help of my power going through him.
He asks, "Are you ready, love?" Kenji snorts and I can tell what he's thinking, I bet he's said that to you before.
I blush and nod my head. I cannot focus on his perfect, beautiful… gorgeous muscle. The weight is thrown in the air. I jump up and kick it aside, showing off a bit. The weight hits the ground and turns into weight-bits. "Better?" I sassily ask Kenji.
"Much better," he agrees.
After a little more practice, Kenji says that we'll be done for the day. He goes off to train a bit by himself. Warner's back on weights… oh God.
He's done a great service for the world, myself included.
I think someone should tell him that, but I can't. We'd do things Kenji probably doesn't want to see. God, Kenji would have enough joking material for months.
He puts them down as he sees me. "Do you want to run with me?" I ask.
"Sorry, love, I have a meeting not get to," he says.
I nod, "do you want to have lunch later?"
"Maybe dinner?" He asks. I nod my head and fake a smile. You'd think because of his powers he'd see right through a forged smile. He doesn't. He walks away after kissing me quickly. The bubble of disappointment that was building up in me bursts everywhere. I have to run around on the track by myself.
We didn't have any meetings together. We didn't see each other for lunch or dinner. That's the only thing I really hate about this job. I don't get to see the one person I want to see.
In even worse news, my parents contacted me today.
They sent a package, but I don't open it. I fall asleep, alone, again.
(Warner's POV)
I walk into my room and Juliette's asleep, again. I can still feel her frustration with me and it hurts, but I think I've got a good surprise for her. I'm planning for tomorrow to just be a day off. No training. No work. Just us.
But, to catch up for lost time, I need to work out tonight. While I'm running, James comes up to me. I stop and sit down.
He's my brother. He's got my dad's nose and body shape. He's my brother…
James sits next to me. "How are you?" I ask.
"I'm good. What are you doing down here without Juliette?" He asks. He sees my confused face and adds, "It's just… she's always with you. Is she okay?"
"Yes, she's okay, I promise you. She's just asleep upstairs."
"Why does she sleep upstairs? Adam says she has a room next to the twins, but she's never there," James asks. I take a second to exhale. I do not want to explain this to my little brother.
"She just likes to sleep upstairs better," I say.
"Why?" James continues to press on about a topic I really don't want to talk about with him.
"I don't know," I say. But, I do know. Lying to my brother.
Maybe it's for good reasons, he shouldn't have that talk with me, but still. He's my brother and I'm lying to him. Not about Juliette in my room, but nobody's told him. It's not the right time. That's the only thing Kent and I actually agree on.
"Do you mind her upstairs?" He asks. "She kicked you out of your room! You know, you could always use her old room, downstairs."
"It's okay. I'm perfectly okay with her using my room," I sigh, happily.
"You're crazy," James play shoves me. I roll my eyes. James reaches into his pocket, and I tense up. I've been trained for any sort of problem. I was, I don't know, expecting a gun or knife. I know he's only ten. It was a ridiculous idea for me to have.
He handed me candy.
Candy. As in, a candy bar.
I laughed and he asked why I was laughing. I just shrugged my shoulders and smiled to him. He gave me a piece of chocolate. We were eating a piece when I heard a deep scream come from upstairs.
Juliette!
James and I make or way upstairs, but the moment we hit the stairs I see her. "What's wrong, Juliette?" James asks. He grabs her bare hand. I wasn't worried. She had it under control. Then, James fell to the ground, out cold.
She was able to calm down after the twins said he'd be okay, he healed quickly. We sat in the hospital room together. "What happened, Juliette? How did you slip like that?"
"I was dreaming," she says, "I had another nightmare. I woke up and… I hurt him. Oh God. Oh my God."
I sigh. Sonya says, "Juliette, the more these dreams increase the more dangerous you'll be."
"I know… I know," she says. "I just don't know how to control it."
"I can give you some medicine that should help," Sonya says. Juliette nods her head. I hold her hand. We stay up for a while and James wakes up eventually.
"That was… crazy," he mutters. We end up talking and laughing. Ultimately, James falls back asleep. We walk to our room. I know Juliette isn't in the mood for anything tonight… not after what happened. But, I hold her in my arms. I know she doesn't want to sleep right now, but she does. I saw before Juliette took the small pill Sonya recommended.
She didn't have any nightmares and I didn't have any dreams at all.
That next morning, I wake up first. Not surprising. Juliette always sleeps in. I look at her bedside table. A package came in for her.
It's from her parents.
I look it over and I nudge Juliette awake. "Why didn't you open this?" I ask.
She mutters, "I don't care what they want or what they're trying to give me."
I open up the package slowly. It (literally) explodes in my face. I faintly see Juliette gasp and try to help me.
The next chapter should be uploaded soon. Review any ideas you have for me or if you want to rant. Have a great day and until next time.
