A/N: I'M BACK! Such kind words about my last one-shot ;o; I'm tearing up..! So, here's a another one-shot xD It could be right after the last one!
Take A Nap On My Lap!
When team CoreTech had spend a night in the town, the decided to go on sightseeing the next day. All of them walked through a massive amount of people to see the cause being a big carnival being held. Several of different entertaining stands, hot food and cold drinks, and a chance to relax and have fun among friends was more than enough to get the five teens into join in on the activities. After a while, the group split after deciding to try different things and so Bren, Chase and Beyal went to try out the car rides after finally pursuing the Monk to try driving a car into another driver, while Jinja and Dax went to go see the Haunted House.
They had heard screams erupt from within the house all day and seen teens and adults exit the building in shaking forms of terror. That had perked up the brunette's interest as well as curiosity and sense of challenge. Beyal and Bren were out of the question to bring with her, and though Chase seemed to be careless and insane at times, he was also somewhat a wimp when it came to these kind of things.
"Oh, I see," she crossed her arms with a light smirk. "I'm surrounded by boys but none of them seems to have the guts to go with me. Figures."
"Didn't see you asking me, Princess," the Lowlander interrupted with a smug grin, hands stuffed in his pockets. Jinja responded with a slight raise of her eyebrow.
"Daxie, I don't need to ask because I know you're scared too."
"Let's see who calls for their moms' first, Princess," Dax replied and leaned a little forward. "Then we'll know who's scared."
And so the two teenagers sat in the wagons inside the House and an employee pressed a button with a smile, and then they were transported inside, the darkness engulfing them completely and the doors behind them shutting completely. Red light began to lit dimly and a thick fog hang in the air around them, women, children and men screaming faintly in the background. Light suddenly lit above them, revealing dead human corpses hung upside down from the ceiling, the blood slowly gliding down their lifeless bodies and dripping down onto the wagon. Jinja groaned a little in annoyance.
"Frightened?" Dax asked smugly. The girl huffed in stubbornness.
"Grossed out; yes. Frightened; I don't think so."
The ride continued with creatures like vampires, half beasts and half humans, zombies and such popping out in front of the two CoreTech members once in a while, the dramatic background music causing a creepy atmosphere but nothing to scare them yet. Then, the ride turned drastically as the wagon speed up rapidly; doing swings and turns around the house where a wicked laugh came from behind which turned out to be half burned clowns running after them with axes in their hands. The wagon speed up once again and then stopped suddenly, causing the teens to fly forwards and choke slightly in their seatbelts. The wagon let out a light steam that signalled the end of the ride and Dax and Jinja got out in no time.
"Wow, this was definitely way overrated. I mean, I didn't even get a shock, let alone scream at all. What about you, Dax?"
The brunette stopped talking when she noticed that Dax wasn't walking beside her anymore. Turning around, she saw him near a stone wall; clutching his stomach tightly, using one hand to support himself while he was slightly crouched over. Jinja gasped a little in surprise and then rushed to him in smug satisfaction.
"Aw, was the ride into the Scary Haunted House too much for Little Daxie?" she squealed mockingly, poking him in the sides to annoy him and gloat in victory. He swatted her hand away lazily and squeezed his eyes in response.
"Ugh, I don't feel so good…"
"Want me to buy you a teddy bear to make you feel better, huh?" she continued with a grin, but it slowly faded away when she noticed how pale the Lowlander looked. His arm remained wrapped around his stomach.
"Dax, are you alright?"
"My stomach hurts…" Dax replied with his eyes slowly opening. "I really shouldn't have eaten all those hotdogs…"
"You're not gonna barf, are you?" the brunette asked cautiously, taking a step back slowly to avoid if the dark-skinned boy was going to vomit anytime soon.
"N-no, I don't think so…but it really hurts, though…" the Lowlander said, trying to stand up, but failed miserably when Jinja had to catch him before he fell to the ground.
"Easy Tiger," she said, and spotted a bench nearby. "Let's sit down first."
She helped him walk over to the bench, carefully helping him sit as well though he still gave a grunt of pain. The hand clutching his arching stomach still wouldn't leave. Beads of sweat started to form on Dax' forehead and he grit his teeth together.
"Does it still hurt?" she asked in which he gave a small nod. Then the Lowlander felt cool hands gently place themselves on his face, and softly sat his head on just as soft thighs. Dax waited a few seconds to register what was happening, and when he felt those slender, gentle fingers slowly caress his face, he could feel himself blush hard.
"H-hey, what are you-."
"Just relax, Daxie," he heard her say in a smooth, hushed voice that immediately shut him up. "Relax and let your stomach calm down, okay?"
He didn't dare move his head from its spot on her lap, so with a obedient ''kay' he decided to do as he was told and let himself relax; making himself comfortable while she worked her magic. She took off his beanie and ran her finger through his damp, but soft brown dreads, delighted to hear his content sigh of pleasure. The Lowlander could feel his body respond to her feather-light caresses and touches, his stomach arching less and less by the minute, and slowly but surely his eye-lids lowered a little by little.
The brunette felt a genuine smile bloom on her lips, then lowering her head to his to press a kiss to the boy's temple. She stayed like that for a couple of seconds before a flash momentarily blinded her and with all her senses on alarm, she looked up to see a female news-reporter with a camera in her hands and a smirk tugging her rosy-red lips.
"Aw, that's so adorable," she squealed, and giggled at the brunette's reaction. "It's been years since I've seen love like this. I'm making you two the head-story of this week's paper."
Jinja blushed a deep crimson colour and blinked a few times, but before she could convince the reporter to give her back the photo, she was already gone. The brunette shook her head in slight disbelief. "Oh Crag…"
She didn't know what she should be most afraid of.
The reaction from Dax about getting his relationship published in a newspaper for everyone to see.
Or the reaction from her Dad about how he found out about his daughter having a boyfriend.
