HI AGAIN! SORRY FOR THE DELAY! THIS CHAPTER, I HAVE TO SAY IS NOT MY BEST BUT I GUESS YOU GUYS CAN BE THE JUDGE OF THAT! WELL, HERE COMES CHAPTER 21!
CHAPTER-21
"Vladimir, Vladimir Chekov," he answers smirking down at me.
I am struck speechless by my surprise… but there has to be hundreds of Russians with the same surname, it's just a mere coincidence.
"Chekov?"
"Yis, vhy?"
"Oh its nothing," I reply, looking out ahead of us. A small cabin sits not twenty feet away… well if you can call it a cabin. By the looks of it is all constructed of some type of metal with the exception of the glass roof. I can't help but wonder where he got these types of materials.
"Home, sveet home," is all Vladimir says as we approach the odd building.
"You live there?" I ask, if my hands weren't bound I would have pointed.
"Yep," he replies popping the 'p', which might I add, sounds funny with his Russian accent.
"Why?" I raise my eyebrows, unable to comprehend why someone on a planet as hot as this one would have a roof with a glass roof.
"Vell ve can't all live en a fabulous castle, can ve?" he replies rolling his eyes.
"But why would you live in a house that has a glass roof? On a planet this hot?" I question.
"Not many options on a desolate planet, you know?" he replies, "and besides, zee zun's hot and zo am I, zo it cancels out," he smirks.
I can't help but give a half snort, "You really think a lot of yourself, don't you?"
"Kinda have to, et's not everyday zat a beautiful girl lands on zee planet you've been ztranded for months on end," he says with a wink.
I laugh, "I really hope you aren't talking about me."
"Who else vould I be talking about?"
I nod forward toward 'Callie', who is practically booking it towards the small house.
"Who? Lisa? Been zere done zat, and she's not my type," he simply says smirking at me once again.
"Pig. Wait? Her name is Lisa...? That's one mystery solved," I say making him laugh, I pause for a minute as we continue to walk, "So… What is your type exactly?" I ask. How could she not be his type, I mean I hate her, but even I'll admit that she is a lot better looking than me.
"Hmm… I don't know… young, brunette, vunny, hot… and too much of zee zame zing gets a little boring."
"Well… I've definitely been called worse and, I am flattered, but I'm going to have to decline," I tell him rolling my eyes as we arrive at the house.
"And vhy iz zat?" he asks, his eyebrow quirked in curiosity.
"Well, first of all your kind of a pig, and second, I'm kind of taken," I reply, right now I would give anything to be with Pavel… if I do see him again, I hope he'll be able to forgive me for the terrible mistake I've made.
"You're 'kind of taken'? Vhat's that supposed to mean?" He asks as 'Lisa' pushes open the metal door.
"Things haven't been the best between me and my boyfriend," is all I say with a cringe, as we walk through the door.
The interior of his 'house' is not what I expected, it has many luxuries, it has a stove, a refrigerator, a couch, a bed, even an old fashioned flat screen TV.
"Um… where did you get all this?" I ask, confused that someone on a desolate planet like this would be able to obtain these types of luxury items.
"Oh Lisa has ztopped by a vew times, each time she comes she brings me zomezing new," he explains.
I nod, understanding, "Since we are here, can I get out of these?" I ask raising my bound hands from behind my back. I've almost forgotten the situation I'm in, given the company.
"Zure," He says smirking, as he unties me. "So, zis 'boyfriend' of yours, may I ask vhat he's like?" He smirks once he is done undoing my binds, probably wondering what Pavel has that he doesn't.
"Well… he's sweet, smart, funny, cute… and sometimes a tad protective," I tell him, just thinking of the time Pavel punched Derming.
Ah," is all he says, "You know, I do believe I meet all zose criteria, excluding cute…" he pauses smirking, "I have more of a rugged handsomeness… vouldn't you say."
I roll my eyes, "But Pavel's different."
"Pavel?" he asks, some type of emotion suddenly flashes in his eyes then disappears within the second.
"Yeah, he's also Russian," I tell him, "Why?"
"Nothing its jist know zomeone vith zee same name," he says off handedly.
"Oh," I reply, but I can't help but feel like we may be talking about the same person, I mean his last name is Chekov and he knows someone by the name of Pavel. Deciding this may not be the best time, I drop the subject for now.
"Vlad," 'Lisa' cuts in, "Can I get those credits?"
"Zure, zure," he replies and I take a seat on his couch.
….. … ….. ….. ….. ….. ….. ….. …. ….. ….. ….. ….. ….. … ….. … ….. … … … … … ….. ….. ….. ….. ….. …..
So, 'Lisa' has left… leaving me with Vladimir. All I can really do is wait, and hope the Enterprise finds me, but until then I guess I really could be in worse company.
"Are you a wirgin?" Vladimir asks me randomly.
I find myself spraying the water in my mouth in surprise, "Where the hell did that come from?!"
"Jist curious," he winks.
"One, that's none of your business! And two, how old are you anyway?!" I ask.
"Tventy-five, and I'm jist passing zee time," he says.
"Well I'm sure there are other things to do," I roll my eyes.
"Vell, I can think of a vew," He winks at me.
"Ugh, the Enterprise could not get here sooner," I groan.
"Vhy? You vant to leave me that badly, because if I vasn't mistaken I vould say zat you are enjoying my company," he smirks.
"I guess you're mistaken then. And need I remind you I have a boyfriend," I remind him.
"Yis zee 'boyfriend'." He rolls his eyes.
"Yes, I do have a boyfriend."
"Vhat does zis 'Pavel' even do?"
"He's the ships navigator," I reply, a hint of pride in my voice.
"Really?" His eyebrows rise, "how old iz he?"
"He's eighteen," I reply, getting annoyed with the current conversation… all I want is to get back on the damn ship and move on with my life.
"You know," He scoots closer toward me, "A guy zat young, probably doesn't have zat much experience… zomething I have plenty of," he wiggles his eyebrows.
"I. Am. Not. Interested." I tell him, I mean I know he's been here for a while and there's only been one woman besides myself, who I'll admit, is a slut. But still, how many different ways can I make it clear to the guy.
"Are you zure?" He says suggestively.
"Well…" I lean in close to him, leaving my lips hanging an inch or two away from him, "I'm absolutely sure," I whisper smirking, and I lean back into my seat on his couch.
"Tease," he mumbles, and I can't help but laugh.
"Look if it makes you feel better, if I didn't have a boyfriend, and you weren't a pig, I might have been interested," I admit.
"Vell, your boyfriend is no vhere around, and it's only in your opinion zat I'm a pig, zo…" he says wiggling his eyebrows again.
"Yea- no."
He laughs, "Vell, it might be a vhile until your ship gets here, if it gets here. Plenty of time for me to vin you over," he winks.
"Good luck with that," I roll my eyes.
….. … ….. ….. ….. ….. ….. ….. …. ….. ….. ….. ….. ….. … ….. … ….. … … … … … ….. ….. ….. ….. ….. …..
Obviously not sharing a bed with him I chose to sleep in the couch, which is surprisingly comfortable. Why would 'Lisa' go through all the trouble of getting him this stuff…? I wonder if she's in love with him.
The fact that his actions may eventually break her heart, gives me a little bit of satisfaction, then she might actually know the pain she inflicted on me.
There's a sudden noise coming from outside making me sit up to look towards the door. Suddenly the door bursts open and enters Pavel, Jim, and McCoy, all carrying phasers set to stun.
"Took you long enough," I roll my eyes standing up, I walk towards Pavel.
"Katie are you okay… I'm zo zorry… I-" Pavel starts but he is cut off by my lips.
"I'm so sorry Pavel, I shouldn't have been mad at you…" I tell him once I pull away.
"You don't have to be zorry, I could have prevented it," He tells me.
"Don't try to apologize, it's my fault. I'm just so glad you're here…"
"Pavel?" says a voice from behind me, making me turn in towards Vladimir, who has joined the 'party'.
Out of the corner of my eye I can see Pavel's face going white, as if he's seen a ghost, "V-Vlad?"
