She couldn't sleep. She tossed and turned, filling her sheets with sweat as sinful desires filled her mind and heart. Her best friend, now an innocent child again, labored in the next room, her breathing shallowed by the disease eating away at her.
Visions of the past filled Kitty's mind. They were replaced by images of a happy future in which she'd once believed but now would no longer happen. She would've waited for Illyana as she grew again, but Illyana wouldn't wait for her. Silent tears tracked down her face.
A gentle hand suddenly touched Kitty's sad face. The touch stilled her writhing body. "I-Illyana?" Kitty whispered, still asleep. The child screamed in the next room as the blonde teenager smiled down at her lover.
"It's okay," she assured her. "It's me. I'm never going to leave you, Kitty." She touched Kitty's breast with one hand and her head with the other. "I'm always going to be here with you." Her hands swept over her body and came to rest again on her low stomach. "In you."
She pierced her; Kitty cried out, first in pain and then in pleasure. She ravished her quickly, covering her with loving kisses that would have to last them forever. Then Illyana started to vanish. "Don't leave me," Kitty begged.
"I won't," she promised, and then she disappeared. "I'll always be here." Kitty woke sobbing. Woman, child, and teenager cried. Running from her room, Kitty spent the rest of the night with Illyana.
The End
