Deryn collapsed on to her bed on the Leviathan, if she had not experienced her adventures herself, she would not have ever thought that a girl like her would ever live to experience them. But there was one thing that lingered on her mind ever since it happened, or should she put it as 'lingered on her lips'. The unexpected kiss from Lilit left her dumbfounded for seconds, but she didn't have time to really take it in. Her first kiss was to a girl, and she actually enjoyed it! If only she could just have Lilit back so that they can have just one more kiss…

A knock interrupted her thoughts. 'Come in,' she called out, straightening her outfit to look sharp. Alek entered her room, looking overly excited.

'There someone who wants to meet you,' he said very cheekily, and he stepped out of the way to reveal the very person that was on Deryn's mind.

'Lilit!' she exclaimed, but then tried to maintain a cool tone, 'What are you doing here?'

'Don't pretend you're not excited to see me,' she answered slowly approaching Deryn.

Deryn's heart started beating faster. Was she going to get another kiss? If she was, she was going to cherish every moment of it, since she doesn't know how much longer Lilit was going to stay. 'Snap out of it!' She shook her head, 'Lilit is a girl and so are you!' Lilit let out a chuckle and pounced onto Deryn, and they both fell back to the bed. Deryn looked at Alek for help, but he just stood there looking amused..

'Did you like our last kiss?' She said, with a grin on her face, 'Would you like another one?' In saying so Lilit kissed Deryn. Deryn couldn't handle it anymore, the feeling felt incomplete, and so she kissed back.

Alek stood there next to the door, a new feeling starting to stir up inside him. He wasn't sure what it was, but that feeling now replaced his amusement. He suddenly wanted to interrupt them, or ride on the bed with Lilit and Deryn. But it was kind of weird that the person he mostly wanted to be with was Deryn.

Lilit finally pulled away from Deryn, both of their faces red.

'That was nice,' Lilit said breaking the silence. 'Well, see you later'

'Wait!' Deryn barely managed to get the words out of her mouth, 'How come you're still here?'

'Well… apparently my uncle abandoned me, so that left me with nowhere else to go. Then Alek here,' she then turned towards Alek, who seemed to be in deep thought but snapped out of it upon hearing his name, 'Offered me a place to stay.'

'I thought you would love it since you're madly in love with her,' Alek explained, and Deryn decided she was going to even the score later, when Lilit finally leaves.

'Sadly, I'm only staying here till we get to our next destination, I have a relative there... I have relatives everywhere,' she said to Deryn, who was now getting off the bed, away from Lilit.

Deryn thought about it, it seems that Lilit will be staying with them for one more week. Then a thought hit him, 'Wait, all the other cabins aren't fit for sleeping anymore, so where will she stay?'

Lilit plopped herself to a sleeping position in Deryn's bed, 'I'll be staying right here, with you.'

Deryn groaned. She was sure that Lilit was going to cause her a lot of trouble. Especially since she knew her true identity.

So, this is my first story ever... I hope you enjoy it. I only wrote one chapter and I may continue if people like it. Thanks :D
