Dig my grave
Chapter 17
Only For Us
The room Cryptor carried a now sleeping Osha into was huge and had a large bed. Where were they? A small hidden safe house not too far from the warehouse. A place only a few people would know of. He had bitten her father harshly upon waking up again.
He needed to sit back for a bit and relax now that the fight was over and they had the masks. But then...it wasn't his idea to keep the masks. He wanted them destroyed. But then again it wasn't his fault. This wasn't his city after all. He just lived in it. Now he lived in it with her. He needed to protect her. He lay her down on the bed and pulled the blankets up.
Sleeping was something he actually didn't need, but he did it out of habit. He found it relaxing to power downed for a little while. A luxury he had and liked. He smiled down at the woman. Lightly moving her hair from her face. It had fallen out of its braid and he was able to sit there and watch her with it scattered across the pillow.
He sighed, turning around walking into the rather large bathroom. The huge bath tub could fit at least five people in it. He turned on the water and pulled out a towel from the cabinet. He pulled his clothes off and sighed.
Looking in the full length mirror that took up most of the wall. He could see the injuries along his frame that had been done on him by Mr. E. He hated that mech. He had never felt so ripped into until he arrived.
Turning and climbing into the rather large bath tube and sat back in the hot water. Hopefully this helped his joints out. His eyes closed and he put his arms on either side of the tub.
Cryptor nearly jumped out of the tub when he felt the jets turn on and the water sway as someone else got in. He looked up and a smirk overtook his face.
"I see…" He felt her cross her legs and run her fingers over the bubbles. She looked troubled. He reached over taking her hand in his. Pulling her closer to him. Her head rested on his chest. He allowed for her to hold him. His own fingers ran up and down her back.
"Whats on your mind, my love?" He asked. She thought about it.
"What do we do now? They know where we were. Are we going to stay here?" She asked. He chuckled and shook his head.
"This house belonged to someone that used to own the warehouse we now reside in. Sadly enough the man who hid his money well and likes to steal things a lot. So I...procured a few of his properties and blackmail him from time to time." He flicked the water. "This is one of his more...secure properties." Cryptor let Osha sit back up.
"You said my name, you know." That caught him by surprise. His head cocked a bit to the right and his eyebrow arched.
"Oh?"
"Yes...when I was in danger." She told him. "When they had me." Cryptor scoffed.
"I did no such thing." He turned his head away and looked in the mirror and chuckled.
"Say it again?" Osha asked. Cryptor chuckled, turning away from her as he climbed out of the bath.
"Perhaps later."
"Oh you and your...perhaps later. That and the leather." She flicked water at him. He shook his head and pulled the towel around his middle.
"Are you sassing off to your master?" He asked.
To Cryptors horror he watched Osha's smile disappear and she fit her hair behind her ear. That was unusual. What just happened?
"No sir…" She slowly reached over and unplugged the bathtub.
"No, nono...Osha. My dear Osha." He looked over her and climbed back into the bathtub again. "I love you so. I just want to say that name in our own privacy. That name...it is mine to say." He cupped her cheeks in his hand and smiled down at her.
"Why do you love me? Is it because I'm letting you drink my blood." She asked.
To Osha's surprise Cryptor laughed picking her up and walking out of the bathtub. She didn't realize just how long his legs were until then.
"Oh no, my dear. I don't need to worry about blood. Given or not, I take it...because I hunger for it. However...I realized upon meeting you that I hunger for something more." He lay her on the bed and lay next to her. His finger trailing down her cheek. She blushed hard.
"What?"
"The warmth of anothers company." He answered honestly. She turned over trying to hide that her face turned completely red.
"Oh stop it…" She giggled. He just chuckled thinking her embarrassment was adorable. She was...cute...when she was flustered.
"General!" The door slammed open. Cryptor turned over using his own body to shield Osha's naked form from the newcomer.
"What!" He bellowed.
"I'm sorry sir, but you're going to want to see this…" He pointed to the window. Cryptor picked up a pillow and handed it to Osha to keep in front of herself.
Cryptor looked out of the window and his eyes grew wide.
"What in the name of the first spinjitzu master is that?" A huge hole opened up above the clouds just over the resurrection temple. "Oh no…"
