THIS IS DRABBLE INSPIRED BY wheredidtheygo's STORY 'UNDER YOUR SKIN'. So please, go read that before you read this!
I absolutely love her story and I just HAD to write this.
This is the Aiden version.
The make-up brush sweeps across the pink flesh, creating the illusion of a flat, nonexistent mouth. Her eyes shoot across them and unfortunately, curve up into a smile. The girl quickly realizes her mistake and fixes it, her lips pursing into a straight line. She curses mentally and finishes her make-up.
Within an instant, her fiancé Aiden steps into the room. Sara stands up and brushes her hands against her jeans. "Hi." Aiden says, walking up to his strikingly beautiful fiancée. Sara smiles but her eyes don't. She feels alien. She feels embarrassed. "You look like you're missing your mouth." Aiden says in a light tone as his hands snake around her wrists. Sara brightens up at the comment, her cheeks rousing in a rosy color and her eyes smile. He pulls her hands up and Sara takes the hint to wrap her arms around his neck. He quickly leans down and attaches his lips to Sara's, he smiles. "Why does that make you happy?"
Sara shrugs, shyly. Aiden chuckles, "You know… I haven't got to work today. We could always, spend a little time together." Sara tries her hardest to think of an excuse; but her mind draws blanks. She could tell him a variety of things, but the look on his face tells her not to. She was guilty, mostly over Tegan but partly because she craved to be alone. If she spoke, she'd feel like she betrayed Voix; so she kept her mouth shut. She turned away when Aiden attempted to kiss her. "Babe?" Sara observed him; her striking hazel orbs held a deep emotionless state. She felt this way often- unoccupied. "I'm… fine." Her voice is weak and feeble and she regrets speaking the moment the words fall out of her mouth. Aiden sits on the bed. "Want to talk about it?" He knows Sara all too well. Sara straightens out her lips and shakes her head. Aiden sighs, "Are you sure? I'm a bit concerned about you." Sara realizes she'll have to talk.
"I'm sorry, Aiden. I'm fine, really." Sara apologizes. She sits on the bed and gazes up at him. She feels dreadful because she's deceived Voix but she feels worse that she doesn't want to make love to her fiancé. She would blame this on his sister and she'd get a stab of guilt each time.
"You're not, but I'll let it go." Aiden mutters, sitting next to her. "My sole purpose in life is to make you happy." He says, sliding an arm around her petite frame. Sara leans into him upon instinct. She'd never questioned her sexuality before and now… she was feeling lonesome and beside herself. Voix had become a safety net; a comfort thought. Sara looked up to the character and was inspired by her. She was sexy, strong and independent.
"Thanks." Sara whispers, closing her eyes. She'd thought of what Voix would do. Well, Voix wouldn't be in this situation and Aiden would not be alive. Come to think of it, Voix was most likely a lesbian- well so Sara had made her out to be. Was it Sara's subconscious telling her something? When did things get so difficult and since when did Voix's sexuality matter?
She was just a fictional character; a very deep and disturbed one at that. Sara didn't realize just troubled Voix was. Thinking upon it, Sara was actually scared of herself. She'd made Voix up in her mind with silly drawing and day dreams and it had to be her subconscious. What else could it be? Sara had to be as fucked up as Voix was.
"I'm just a little… stressed." Sara says, turning to her husband-to-be. Aiden nodded, "Of course you are. Wedding planning can't be easy." He chuckles and pulls Sara into his lap. "I don't care how lovely the wedding is, just as long as I get to marry you." He kisses her jawline. Sara feels comforted by his big, strong arms but they're nothing compared the inked ones of his sister. Tegan was small and petite like Sara; she carried a curvier frame but it was all the more feminine and it had Sara's head swimming with the thought.
"You're sweet." Sara replies, turning to meet his lips. She could have sex with him, but would she actually get off? She'd been trying but she'd also been faking orgasms.
Aiden chuckles again, "Just to you." There's a knock on the door and Sara practically jumps off of Aiden's lap to answer it. There stands Tegan, holding her helmet. Aiden's at Sara's side in a second and he grins at his sister whilst wrapping his arm around Sara's waist, once again.
"I've got some work for Sara, if she's up to it." Tegan says, cockily. Sara nods quickly, pulling away from Aiden's grip to find her shoes and slip them on. She does so and looks in the mirror. She licks the back of her hand and wipes off the make-up masking her lips. She returns to the door. "Ready?" Tegan asks and Sara nods again.
"Love you, honey." Sara says as she kisses Aiden's lips, having to stand on her tippy toes to do so. "Bye." He calls out to the girls.
