So, when going into the data of my story, I found that I have two follows, a favorite, and no reviews, but over 200 views which means that either the data is off or no one's reviewing. Those reviews mean a lot to me and show me that the story is important to others. If you please donate a little bit of your precious time into a review, even if it's just," Good work," it will immensely help me in future chapters; even if you don't like it, at least tell me So that I can learn what people like. And with that said, here, for your enjoyment, is chapter 4.
Leon
I got changed out into more comfortable attire than the athletic suits used in the simulation; I was wearing a grey shirt and jeans and a blazer, assuming a semi-casual dress. I didn't know what to expect, but I thought that I might as well look nice for it. I walked down the hall, consulting the main computer for the location of the holo deck. As the lift carried me to the indicated floor, I wondered what was in store for me when I got there; Falco had given very little details, the only indication being the invitation he gave me to join him outside the battle simulator.
I reached the doors, they opened to reveal magnificent scene; It was a small coffee shop, with a short black gate separating it from the road. The sky has a beautiful blue tinge and a few clouds moved lazily across it. the road was empty, save a few cars moving without much urgency. I walked in through the gate and a waiter waved me towards the table that Falco was at. He was wearing a grey blazer over a rolled-down blue-grey turtleneck. His feathers were combed back and he had found a small white flower to put in his lapel. He was actually quite stunning.
Falco
he was actually quite stunning. His blazer was a navy blue and complimented his light grey shirt. I waved to him as a holographic waiter pointed him to the table. I flattened my feathers as he stepped over and called over the waiter. Leon ordered a cappuccino, and since I had already ordered a mocha coffee, the man left us." So this is what you wanted to show me, huh," claimed Leon." It's very nice. Where did you get the design?"
" I had seen a coffee shop like this before," I said," but it was in a dream I had."
" Funny you should mention that," said Leon," because I had a similar backdrop in one of my dreams."
We continued talking; about the sky and the street and the realness of it all. Somehow, we navigated back to the dreams." How amazing is it that it could know so well the details that we couldn't hope to remember," I said, still surprised even though I've used the program countless times.
" It really is an amazing feat. Right down to the tablecloth," exclaimed Leon.
"Speaking of, I have something to ask you," I said nervously.
" Of course. What's on your mind?"
" Well there's a person that I've had many reoccurring dreams about... I think I like this person, but I don't know how they feel. What should I do?" The thing I didn't tell him was that this person was him, or that I had had a dream with him, in rather graphic detail, every night for nearly a week now.
" The unwavering Falco has a crush?! And you're asking me for romantic advice?! You must be really desperate... I'm not very good at this sort of thing, but I think you should tell them how you feel."
" But when?"
"As soon as you can," said Leon suspiciously.
I looked down at my feet, bracing myself for what was to come." then there's something I have to tell you..."
Leon
"Then there's something I have to tell you," said Falco, who was blushing through his feathers. I was stunned; I had had many dreams starring him in some rather explicit situations, but I didn't think he had the same feelings. He Began to speak again, but I didn't give him time; I leaned over the table, stand a little to close the gap, and planted a kiss directly on his beak. It was short, but contained so much passion." I know," I said." I feel the same way." His blush deepened, if that was even possible And, were I not cold-blooded, mine would've, too; instead, my entire body turned a deep red, which embarrassed me even more and made Falco smile.
Then, very suddenly, he reached across the table, this time pulling me into a deep kiss. Our tongues collided and danced around each other. I melted into the passionate act, losing any sense of my surroundings. Time stopped and I wanted nothing more than to stay in this moment for as long as I could. As we pulled apart, I knew that what we had wasn't just a feeling.
Falco
As we pulled apart from the kiss, I realized that what we had was More than just a feeling. I felt like saying something, but there were no words to describe how I felt. We just gazed into each other's eyes, engulfed in each other, while we held hands across the table. The only thing that broke the gaze was a slight throat-clearing. We both snapped back to reality and looked at the waiter, who by now was furiously blushing. Leon and I just laughed, then released each other's hands.
The waiter gave Leon his cappuccino, which had been all but forgotten by us until now. Leon thanked the man, who then slightly bowed and dashed off as quickly as he could without it seeming rude. We laughed again and finished our coffees, making small talk and catching each other staring. My communicator buzzed in my pocket. I picked it up and Krystal's voice projected through the speaker." We need you guys on the bridge. Our "away team" is returning."
" We'll be there shortly," I said, trying to mask my annoyance that we had been interrupted. We stood up and exited the simulation, I finally knowing that Leon was finally mine, and I his." C'mon, lizard," I said with no small amount of affectionate undertone," We're getting some company."
