He still insisted I be taken home though. We all walked threw the streets with no more interruptions...but I still had a problem: never found my shoes. Oh, and I really didn't remember where home was.
We started to wander in circles before Boss exclaimed, "Is this some sort of game? It is getting late. Where do you live?"
I glanced around then admitted, "I don't really know."
They both became visible. "You don't know?! This ooman's head IS broken!" Boss hissed.
"No I don't live around here-I mean, I'm supposed to be on vacation and am staying with at boyfriend's friends house. I'm not familiar with the area."
They both seemed speechless.
"I just need to call my boyfriend. I left my phone on your ship!" I said.
Boss lifted his hand to his temples in frustration. "I could not figure out how to stop the noise and smashed it. I did not know it was valuable!"
I stared at him.
"Do you another way of finding direction?"
I shook my head. "My phone had GPS."
"Do you have any money for other logging?"
I shook my head, "No money. My phone had some Starbucks money loaded I could have bought snacks with."
"Do you have another way of communication?"
I shook my head again, "My phone had all my contact numbers and held my ID."
"I did not know cell phones were such an important piece of equipment. It is as if I had lost my arm bracelet, all controls."
I nodded. Aliens got the importance of cell phones more than parents did. He surprised me though when he said, "You will stay with us on our ship tonight until we figure something out for tomorrow when the sun is up."
"What?" Jed reeled, "You would let her..."
"It is the honorable thing, seeing I have destroyed her equipment...and she honored us in the hunt by luring prey." Boss sighed, and turned to me, "You have earned your name Zoe."
I gave him a goofy smile.
We headed back to the ship, and Jed threw me over his shoulder to climb up to the roof.
The other alien was waiting inside and stared at me with shock, "Why did you bring her back? I told Boss you had probably gone looking for her..." He saw Boss enter the ship next, and said, "Oh."
Jed threw out a mouthful of a name in anger, staring at the other alien. It was strange, like some kind of Egyptian pharaoh name nobody could possibly pronounce correctly.
I pointed to the alien and said, "I'm going to name you Jake."
"Jake!" Jed said again in anger. "JAKE!"
I was thinking about how cool the translator was to associate my new names for them into what the aliens were actually saying. Awesome sauce.
"JAKE! YOU LITTLE TATTLE TAIL!"
"Boys, settle down. We have company. And its time for bed anyway." Boss stated.
His anger deflated in compliance. The other alien stood there nervously, and stared at me. Boss began undoing his armor and stuffed it in a hidden case in the wall of the ship. Jed went to another part of the ship, probably to remove the bullet. I stood there awkwardly, my energy starting to fade.
"Where am I to sleep?" I asked.
I expected some sort of mean comment, but Jake just shrugged. We both stood there...
Then Jake left and I heard him ask Boss down the hall, "Why is that strange thing to stay with us? She is asking were she is to sleep."
I kinda forgot to listen to the rest of the conversation. I was distracted by the fluffy fog at my feet again. But soon boss returned to the back of the ship and said, "Zoe, you will take my bed to tonight. I will sleep in the control room chair. If you need, there is a small bathroom down the corridor to the right. Or I can show you to the room now."
Before I could say anything, Jed came in and scoped me off the floor. "Nonsense! Boss, she will sleep in my bed with me."
Boss eyed him, but said, "As you wish."
WTF?! Do I get any say? I thought as Jed carried me away to his room. He dropped me on his soft bed covered in furs, then crawled in bed on top of me. I had a feeling he had been waiting to be alone with me all night. He put his whole weight on me and he must have been two hundred pounds.
His hands felt up my entire body, "Your skin is so soft."
Apparently, that meant he wanted to see more of it. He tugged my shirt up and his hand reached up under. He seemed puzzled (I think he felt the bra) and decided to take my shirt all the way off. It went over my head and his hands tugged at my bra. It started to rip and I slapped his hand away. Men. Could work on cars (or space ships) but couldn't get a bra off. He would not be deterred though. He ripped my bra off and both his hands claimed my breasts. God it felt good! His mouth claimed mine, his mandibles widened over my mouth and a long tongue licked about my mouth and along my gums. He pressed against me and with his mouth over mine I could barely breathe. My hands shot up to shove at his chest, but with one hand he held my wrists above me strongly. I tried to yell at him, my lungs burning and it felt like he was going to snap my wrists in two. His other hand left my breasts and reached to my shorts. I jerked my legs away when in his haste his nails scratched my skin. I'm sure my face must have been turning purple by then. All that I could get out was muffled mmm mmm mmm mmmm's with his mouth over mine.
My heartbeat raced frantically now. But suddenly, Jed was flung across the room and hit the wall with a thud. It was Boss. Without a word, he grabbed my clothes and wrapped his arm around my waist to carry me off.
He gently sat me down on his bed, dressed me, and asked, "Are you alright?"
I nodded, but he didn't seem satisfied. He looked at the bruising on my wrists and the scratches on my inner thy.
"He is young and doesn't have the necessary self control just yet. I thought he could at least control himself for a moment! This is no way a guest should be treated."
Hey I wasn't dead, and it had gotten me pretty hot being ravaged by an alien. I shrugged and lie down to sleep. Boss huffed at my disregard for almost being crushed and stepped away to leave.
"Nooo, stay with me." I begged.
He hesitated, but then laid down on the bed next to me. I lay on my side, watching him. He was like a statue just lying there on his back, his arms strait at his sides. I giggled. His eyes shifted over to me uncertainly. I reached over him to grab his arm and he let me pull him over me as I turned to my stomach. I used him as a blanket, his warm body held to my back and I cradled his arm between my breasts. It was comfy.
