Prompt 16: Pet Names (Eli Cameron/Red Lucy)

Hey there everyone, welcome back to Mojave Snapshots! I hope all of you wonderful readers have been enjoying this series so far, because I've been really enjoying writing it so far. Anyway, on with the story!

I do not own Fallout: New Vegas, that belongs to Obsidian and Bethesda

Eli Cameron sat on the edge of the bed, lighting up a cigarette. He took a deep drag, letting the smell of the smoke overwhelm him. It was a filthy habit, as his mother used to say. But fuck it, a man needs some vice unless he wants to go crazy. And smoking was a lot better than what other guys did to relax…

A small smile formed on Eli's weathered face, as a pair of arms gently wrapped themselves around Eli's waist. Red Lucy's head appeared, gently resting itself on Eli's shoulder.

"Everything alright, hun?" Eli inquired, eyebrow raised.

"More than okay, my hunter." Red Lucy retorted. "I just want to embrace you."

The Courier could only chuckle at that, as he felt Red Lucy hug him slightly tighter. It felt good, being hugged like this. Been a while since anyone held him like this, if the old cowboy was being honest.

"Ya like calling me your hunter, huh?" Eli chuckled, shaking his head slightly. "Just got some eggs for you."

"My hunter, don't sell yourself short." Red Lucy retorted. "You entered the belly of the beast and snatched victory from the jaws of those vicious Deathclaws, while procuring me these important eggs for The Thorn. You have more than earned your title of my hunter."

"Shit fire, you really can spin a yarn." Eli stated, smiling. "But...I appreciate it, hun."

And the latest prompt for Mojave Snapshots is done and dusted! If you've been enjoying this series so far, please leave a review and let me know how you've been enjoying it. I hope to see you wonderful readers for the next prompt!
