Thank you so much for your reviews. They're really helping me. I'm starting to reach 30 reviews!
This is my second favourite chapter. Please enjoy!
Chapter Twelve: Extraterrestrial
All five escapees were in Harland's RV, on the way to Witch Mountain. Sara was asleep on the sofa across from Seth and Leslie with Junkyard beside her, unlike her brother, who was bent over the blue tracking device again.
Leslie looked up from her book and saw the dark rings under his eyes from tiredness, and he was trying to concentrate. Moving quickly, she snatched the device out of his hand and put it behind her back before he could react.
"You need a rest, so no more of that for at least an hour." she told Seth when he snapped his head up to her.
"Give it back." he demanded, his voice low so as not to distract Jack and Alex from the road.
"No. You need a rest. Follow your sister's example." Leslie replied, indicating the blonde. Seth moved to tower over Leslie like he had with Harland before, so she pressed her hand to his chest to keep him from being too physically close to her. She got to her feet, the device still behind her back.
"Back off buddy. Haven't you heard of personal space?" she asked.
"You shouldn't talk about not getting any rest. You get none yourself." Seth told her, standing too. When he stood, he was a few centimetres over Leslie. Since she had no shoes on and he did, there was an even bigger difference.
"I can sleep later. You'll need to be rested for when you're travelling through space." Leslie argued. "I won't be the one who'll be flying a spacecraft."
Jack, who wanted to block out the arguing, turned on the radio and raised the volume.
You're so hypnotising
Could you be the devil?
Could you be an angel?
Your touch, magnetising
Feels like I am floating
Leaves my body glowing
Seth stepped toward Leslie, who stepped back at the same time, both going into the darker and smaller part of Harland's RV. She slipped the device into the waistband of her pants at the back, so both of her hands could be free for defence.
They say, be afraid
You're not like the others
Futuristic lover
Different DNA
They don't understand you
You're from a whole other world
A different dimension
You open my eyes
And I'm ready to go,
Lead my into the light
Seth stepped closer again, but this time Leslie stubbornly didn't move, making their bodies touch. She found herself looking slightly upward to meet Seth's deathly stare, but stared back nevertheless with a whole load of defiance.
Kiss me, k-k-kiss me
Infect me with your loving
Fill me with your poison
Take me, t-t-take me,
Want to be a victim,
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
Seth tensed as Katy Perry sang those two lines, but then smirked to himself, making Leslie wonder what was going on in his head. Now would be a perfect time to have Sara's mind-reading power.
It's supernatural
Extra-terrestrial
Seth took Leslie's upper arms, turned her and pinned her against one of the taller cabinets. His strength was remarkable.
"Everything ok back there?" Jack asked, not bothering to look back to them. Alex did though, and just smiled when she saw the position that they were in.
You're so supersonic
Want to feel your powers
Stun me with your laser.
Your kiss, is cosmic
Every move is magic
You're from a whole other world
A different dimension
You are in my eyes
And I'm ready to go
Lead me into the light
Kiss me, k-k-kiss me
Infect me with your loving
Fill me with your poison
Take me, t-t-take me
Want to be a victim
Ready for abduction
Seth's hands travelled down to Leslie's hips, and his lips drew closer to her ear.
"You want me to abduct you?" Seth whispered, his breath brushing against her skin. Leslie bit her lip.
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch, so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial
Seth pulled back, and caught Leslie's eyes in his own again. Nothing else was noticed around them, except each other. Suddenly, Seth took her mouth with his own, kissing her.
This is transcendental
On another level
Boy, you're my lucky star
I wanna walk on your wavelength
And be there when you vibrate
For you I'll risk it all.
They continued to kiss, Seth's thumbs lightly brushing the skin just inside the waistband of Leslie's pants, while Leslie stood with her hands in the back pockets of Seth's jeans.
All
Kiss me, k-k-kiss me
Infect me with your loving
Fill me with your poison
Take me, t-t-take me
Wanna be your victim
Ready for abduction
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extra-terrestrial
The kiss went on, neither pulling back or losing haste. In fact, they were more into each other than before.
Extra-terrestrial
Extra-terrestrial
Leslie pulled back first, breathing heavily from the length of time without oxygen. Seth smirked again and showed her his device, retrieved from the waistband of her pants.
Boy, you're an alien
Your touch so foreign
It's supernatural
Extra-terrestrial.
"You're cruel." Leslie told the alien, and he just winked at her before returning to the sofa.
Seth looked over his shoulder and saw Leslie standing where she was awkwardly, so he grabbed her by the belt loops on her jeans and pulled her onto the sofa, her lying on top of him. To comfort his head, he put his arm under it, and kept his arm around her back, his beloved device discarded beside Leslie's book.
In that position, they both fell asleep. Little did they know that Alex caught a picture of them, a keepsake for Leslie for when all this was over.
Sooo, what did you think? I'm sort of proud of this chapter. I hope you guys are too. Please leave your reviews so I know how I got on.
