I had moved back over to my cot, and sat back against the wall, facing Jade. She was in a simular position, but facing me… not herself… it was possible here, but it was still creepy to think about.
"So when's your birthday?" Jade asked.
"August 25th. Yours?"
"May 9th"
"Siblings?" I asked.
"Three. Tina, Ryan and Phoebe. You?"
"I had a sister, Thunder" She nodded and gave a small smile.
"We went on like that for a while, asking each other questions… hey it passed the time. I finally stood up to stretch, I only ended up tripping over the stupid blanket and landing on Jade's cot. She laughed and helped me sit up and untangle myself from the blanket.
"I'm not graceful" I muttered to her, smiling stupidly. She grinned and said "I can tell"
"Yeah shut up" I growled, poking her shoulder. She poked mine in return, and soon we were in yet another rumble. Which ended up with her on my lap. I looked at her and blushed, yeah I blushed get over it, and smiled at her. She bit her lip and sighed, then kissed my cheek.
I blinked at her.
"Sorry" she mumbled. I shook my head and muttered, "It's uh… uh… fine" I actually for once found myself speechless. Why? I had no idea. It had just been a peck on the cheek.
Soon after that we ended up cuddling, don't even ask me how all of this was happening… all I had done was get up to stretch and there I was on her cot cuddling with her. Odd how some things work out.
Especially odd how some things work out in the weirdest scenarios. I mean… here we were, in a universe that seemed pretty much run over by Yeerks, and the people were for the most part hopeless, and yet, we were sitting here, finding romance.
Don't you think it's odd?
Of course you do. Jade rested her head on my shoulder and played with the collar of my shirt, I played with a strand of her hair… don't ask, I have a thing with hair.
"Don't you think this is odd?" I asked finally. She nodded against my neck and then looked up at me, I looked down at her and we just stared at each other for what seemed like forever. I reached up and wiped a smudge of dirt off her face.
"Thanks" she whispered. I nodded. I couldn't talk… my throat was all closed up. Couldn't think straight either.
There was just something in her eyes that kept me captivated. I finally leaned forward and pressed my lips against hers, her eyes widened and then they closed, her arms made their way around my neck and mine around her waist.
I pulled away from her and blinked. Had I just done that?
"Sorry" I whispered. She shook her head and smiled. I returned her smile with one of my own.
I had known her for… what? Three, four days? And I was already liking her this much. What was going on with me.
