Tales of Almia Castle
Chapter 14
Final!
"Get used to it. I take care of what's mine." he smirked smugly hugging me tighter. I was too happy to get angry with him so I just kissed him again on the lips. Unfortunately Ice wanted more than a little peck so I was pinned to the bed AGAIN as his tongue attacked my mouth. However this wasn't the worst thing to happen (I actually liked it a lot *blush*) as the very second Ice slid that skilful muscle into my mouth, Keith, Sven and surprisingly Wendy and Rythmi burst in.
"ICE GET OFF HER!" bellowed Sven rushing over to punch Ice in the head before Keith ran to haul me into his buff chest. Ice hit the floor hard leaving a streak of red across the snow White floor.
Oh Arceus his back from when the headboard hit him!
"Sven stop it!" I yelled making Keith flinch and the older ranger turn to stare at me.
"Kate he had you pinned to the bed!" he yelled.
"He's hurt from when you blew up the wall! Ice got hurt PROTECTING ME!" I shouted back trying to pry myself away from Keith. "K-Keith let go!"
"No. What did he do you?" hissed the red head with a uncharacteristic venom in his voice.
"N-nothi-"
"DON'T LIE TO ME, YOUR LIPS ARE BRUISED!"
My hand instantly shot up to my throbbing lips guiltily before pushing away and going over to Ice.
"Ice tell me where it hurts ok?" I asked gingerly helping him up and over to the bed. With a groan the bluenette nuzzled into my neck placing a small kiss my pale skin.
"STAY AWAY FROM HER!" bellowed Keith grabbing Ice by the scruff of his long jacket. "Keep. Away. From. My. Girl!"
Ice quickly shot a deadly glare at the ranger and grabbed hold of Keith's shirt.
"Katy isn't yours! I know I don't deserve her; I know it but I do love her more than anyone else I've ever met and Katy...Katy loves me.." he hissed his voice and sky like eyes going soft near the end. "If she loved someone else I'd just gave evidence and allowed myself to be taken away but she loves...Me"
Ice looked so happy even though there was blood dripping out of his coat that I couldn't stop smiling softly.
"FINALLY~!" squealed Rythmi and Wendy running over to grab my and Ice's hands and jump Up and down. Ice didn't look amused.
"Oh c'mon no need to glare!" laughed Wendy as Sven just stared in awe at her actions.
These two are so getting together! Well as long as Sven can stop flirting to get her attention.
"Yeah we're just so happy Kate finally confessed! She's been crushing on you for so long!" grinned Rythmi hugging me.
"Ryth!" I hissed turning red. Ice smirked.
"Is that true Katy?" he grinned pulling me out of Rythmi's arms and into his. I squeaked and accidentally brushed my hand over his coat feeling a warm liquid soak my palm.
Blood!
"Ice lie down on the bed and take your jacket and shirt off!" I commanded going in to my serious ranger mode.
"I didn't know you wanted to go that far...well so fast anyway I'm not complaining though." grinned Ice sliding his hand up my leg. I blushed pink but still stayed professional before prying Ice away from me glaring at him.
"Coat and shirt off! NOW!" I hissed in my coldest tone making all the men in the room flinch. With a gulp that only I could see, the bluenette took off his thick coat and crisp white shirt leaving his muscular chest completely bare. I could already feel my cheeks getting warmer so I quickly pushed him onto the bed so he was laying on his stomach and got out my first aid kit.
"Oh Arceus! Why didn't you say anything Ice!" I yelled as I saw a huge bloody scrape along with an angry bruise marring his toned back.
Man h-he's hot! No bad Kate! Treat the guy and keep your mouth shut or he'll never let you hear the end of it!
"Man how the hell could you stand with your back like that!" whistled Sven giving me a hand cleaning the blood of the admin. Ice stayed silent and only moved to pull up his arms to rest his head on them.
He looks angry...*sigh* Men and their pride!
"Ok this is going to sting." muttered Sven getting out the disinfectant that could make a grown tyranitar cry.
"Um Sven maybe I should do that." I smiled taking the KILLER antiseptic and switching it with a milder one trying not to notice how badly Sven wanted to hurt Ice.
"Fine..."
Suddenly Ice seemed to perk up as he felt my fingertips brush carefully over his wound.
"Alight hold still please Icicl-Ice" I whispered making him smirk as I almost said his new 'nickname'.
"I'm SO getting you to call me that." he smirked before hissing as I applied to spray and bandages. Softly I let my hands drift over his skin to see if there were any other injuries until Keith, who had been strangely silent, pulled me away.
"I think he's enjoying it too much." mumbled the red head as Ice sat up still shirtless.
Ice looks really tense...is worried about me being near Keith?
"Keith...um I-I" I stuttered weakly.
Keith is my best guy friend; I don't want to lose him!
"Kate it's alright. I was so desperate to keep you by my side that I hurt you. You're my best friend and I'm always gonna love you but I...I think I got my love for you as my friend mixed up cause...you're just so important to me. I'm NOT saying I like the idea of you and that dirtbag over there together but if he makes you happy then I'm always going to support you. Of course I'll be the first one to break his legs if he hurts you!" smiled Keith sincerely glaring at Ice at the last part.
"K-Keith...thank you so much!" I beamed laughing in relief wrapping my arms around his neck and burying my face in his jacket hugging my spiky haired friend tightly. Keith sighed in relief before hugging me back resting his head in the crook of my neck. I heard giggling behind me after we finally pulled apart. When I turned around I saw Rythmi and Wendy giggling at Ice as he fumed silently.
"Ice are you jelo-EEP!" I asked before I was pulled into the admin's lap so my back was pushed against his firm pecs and arms.
"I'm possessive not jealous..." he glared licking the mark on my neck.
"Oh my Arceus is that a hicky?" screamed Wendy pushing Ice's face away so she could see it better. Ice didn't look very happy so I quickly helped him up.
"Sorry, you're probably regretting this now..." I murmured but he just smirked and moved closer to my face.
"I love you Kate-n00b. I always will and I promise I will NEVER regret my choice." he whispered reverently kissing me gently on the lips.
"Aww so sweet!" cooed my female friends in the room making Ice's eye twitch.
"I don't have to love your friends do I?" whispered the bluenette so only I could hear. I just smiled sheepishly. "Well we better get on with this! I, Ice of the Sinis Trio, surrender. I plead guilty to all charges and I will give evidence and help the Union to catch the rest of the trio and Kincaid.
"W-wait what?" yelled Keith and Sven.
"I'm not going to be my girl's enemy. Besides I could never live with myself if any of those idiots hurt Katy because I didn't do anything to catch them." stated Ice coolly and calmly.
"Alright then let's go to the Union. You will give evidence and then be sent to court where you will be sentenced for your crimes of course we'll do what we can to get you a reduced statement for your information. Top ranger Kate Fable will have to come to where your being held to interview you as well as check on your well-being." said Sven professionally.
"Wait I get Kate-n00b to visit me?" asked Ice with a small (super adorable) smile.
"Well ranger Fable is in charge of capturing the Sinis Trio after all!" chuckled Keith just as Ice spun me around to devour my lips making me blush and everyone else look away snickering at my red face.
"I love you Katy..." breathed Ice holding me close.
"Love you too Icicle..." I smiled cuddling into his broad chest. No matter what happened to us next we knew we'd get though it one way or another. We would. We had to.
-END-
Ok you guys I've completed my goal to get TAC finished before Christmas however you won't be getting this until after. I should explain why my hiatus has been extended so here goes. A few months ago my laptop screen bust completely and that meant that everything I'd been franticly trying to type up in a week like I promised was locked. I've been re-typing as much as I can as I'm getting a new laptop for Christmas. Merry Christmas and I hope you all have a very happy new year. ~Cele-chan1
