With her years living in Night City, living in different shitholes and even once living on the streets, Judy had trained herself to be a light sleeper. She knew that in the "City of Dreams" you were always weakest and most likely to be flatlined in your sleep if you weren't careful. Judy had only experienced one night of heavy deep sleep for as long as she could remember. When Judy heard the door of her apartment slide open and close, she instantly woke from her dreams of her new output. She blinked and rubbed her eyes, looking to the alarm clock on her nightstand, the soft red lights on it indicating that it was just past two in the morning.
Judy lay in her bed, straining her ears listening for any more sound. Her efforts were rewarded with a soft clink of metal on her counter, and a sound of water running. Judy slowly climbed out of bed, a seductive smile plastered on her face and her stomach jumping with joy as she realized there was only one person that could be in the other room. She walked over to her bedroom door and as softly as she could slid it open. As she expected, the form of her output stood at Judy's kitchen sink, the light above it on and framing V in bright white light. Judy realized that she was as of yet unnoticed and silently padded up behind the woman.
"Didn't think I'd be seeing you here so soon." Judy stood on her toes in order to rest her chin on V's shoulder and wrapped her arms around the woman's stomach, "Can't say I'm disappointed."
"I didn't want to wake you." V's voice sounded empty and worry filled Judy. Judy looked over V's shoulder to see V vigorously trying to scrub dried and hardened blood off her hands.
"What happened?" Judy's arms tightened around V, hoping the movement would comfort her output.
"Job went sideways, some of Panam's people got caught in the crossfire." V's hands tightened on themselves for a moment before returning to scrubbing, the blood almost completely gone now. "I still got my target, got the information I could get from him. Handed him over to Takemura. Didn't like the info that I got."
"What were you told?" Judy asked, making a note to ask about the others later.
V stayed silent for a few more moments, Judy didn't press her and just held her from behind. She finished cleaning the blood from her hands and turned off the water. V grabbed a nearby towel and quickly dried her hands before turning around in Judy's embrace. With Judy now finally able to see V's face, her heart broke for the other woman. V's face was etched with pain and confusion, her eyes held fear and uncertainty. V placed her hand to Judy's right cheek, the touch soft and gentle. V leaned down slightly and brought her lips to Judy's. Their shared kiss wasn't full of the passion it had been from the night before, but Judy could feel V's need for comfort and some form of stability.
"Who am I?" V breathed softly once she pulled away. Judy could see tears forming in the woman's eyes.
"You're V, the badass merc, full of power and beauty." Judy brought a hand up to cup V's left cheek. "And you're my perfect gonk of an output."
"I'm not the same person I used to be." V leaned into the hand at her face. "I'm changing and I don't know what's happening."
"Tell me what happened." Judy gently urged, using a thumb to gently wipe away a tear that started to roll down her face.
"My target was a suit named Hellman, he was the scientist that made the biochip in my head. He took a look at me, figured out that the biochip is working almost too well." V's voice was heavy and ragged. "Told me that the chip was starting to merge my mind and Johnny's."
"You think that you're not the same person anymore because of the chip?" Judy asked the obvious thought on her output's mind. V nodded her head once. Judy brought their lips together briefly and gave a soft smile to her output.
"Stop bein' a gonk for a moment V." Judy wiped away another tear from V's cheek. "I obviously don't know what you were like before I met you, but from what I've gathered, Johnny Silverhand was just about the biggest tool you could imagine. You haven't done anything far as I know that would fit that description."
"But I was always cold, ruthless, always quick to kill and step over the bodies of people getting in my way." V's voice cracking with emotion. "I never thought twice, never cared if those under me died, never cared about the costs a goal took."
"You need to stop for a second." Judy soothed. "You used to be in Arasaka, a place that kills souls. You are free to be who you want, and you're becoming who you want. I know one thing for sure though, you worrying about this stuff says you're changing for the better."
"But I've been more aggressive in fights, I could have talked down a soldier that was holding Mitch hostage." V's face grimaced at the memory. "Instead I blew a hole between the kid's eyes. Couldn't be much older than I was when I joined Arasaka. I didn't even think, I just fired."
"You said it before, you don't have time to think in combat, just act or die." Judy placed a light kiss to V's lips again. "And I'm glad that you're the one coming home at the end of the day. My gonk of an output coming home at two A.M. and if you don't come home, I'm gonna beat you to death myself."
"Is that a promise?" V finally cracked a smirk and Judy could see the light of desire flicker into her eyes.
"And if it is?" Judy smirked back, her heart suddenly racing.
"Then I might need to find a better reason for you to do so." V pressed in for a kiss this time, her shoulders slumped and Judy could feel the woman relaxing in her arms. "Never thought I'd be okay with this. I'm always the one in control."
"Not with me," Judy smirked, the still vivid memories from the last night and earlier in the day in her mind. "Don't worry, I won't let the rest of Night City know my big bad merc V lets little me order her around."
"You want this big bad merc to look her part." V purred, and kissed Judy again. "Makes it even better for both of us."
"Always knew something was up with all that leather you wear. But you weren't wearing it in the right spot." Judy kissed the side of V's neck, right above her collar, eliciting a soft moan from her output.
"No one to wear it for before." V's breath hitched with need already. "No one I trusted, felt safe with."
Judy's only response was to lay a heavy kiss to V's lips. When they broke away from each other, Judy pulled V towards the bedroom. Once inside, Judy began freeing her output of her clothes much the same way she did the night before.
"Together for a day and you're already spoiling me." V breathed heavily, collapsed on the bed covered in sweat and Judy laying ontop of her. "I don't deserve you."
"Stop being a gonk." Judy muttered, bliss pasted across her face.
"Yes Judy." V smiled and Judy shivered in delight.
The sun was already on the rise when the two women let sleep take them, once more in each other's embrace.
V was abruptly awoken from her heavy blissful slumber when a loud annoying chiming sounded in her head. She tightened her eyes shut, forcing herself to ignore the ringing and the contact window from Panam appearing in her mind. When the ringing stopped, V quickly disconnected her holo from her operating system, her arms wrapped themselves tighter around her naked output and she tried to let sleep take her once more.
Both V and Judy groaned in irritation when V's holo, sitting on her discarded belt on Judy's floor, ran again, this time it's loud piercing music filling the room. V felt Judy shift as if to get up from her spot atop the merc, but V held tighter, Judy's groan turning to a pleasant moan. Both women let out sighs of relief as noise stopped.
"Just answer it V." Judy ordered, when the holo rang one more time.
"She'll give up eventually." V muttered, looking at her discarded pants and belt with disdain." I hope."
"She?" Judy sat up and looked down at the merc, V shrunk under Judy's stern gaze. "This some output you didn't tell me about?"
"No, she's a friend." V blushed, already feeling wet under Judy's possessive gaze. "A now annoying one, but still a friend."
"Then you won't mind me doing this." Judy's commanding gaze held V in place as her output leaned over the side of the bed and snatched up the offending holo. Judy lay back down next to V and held the holo so the merc was just out of view before answering. "Hello?"
"V!" Panam's voice exclaimed, having not yet seen the other end of the call. "I need you-"
A moment of silence hung in the air as Panam and Judy stared at each other. V could only see Judy's side and it caused her to squirm a bit against her output. V felt her breath get heavier, Judy's face was a stern mask of control and dominance.
"Um, I'm looking for V?" Panam's voice sounded meek against "Is she available?"
"Depends on who's asking." Judy shifted herself to straddle V's hips and placed both knees in the palms of V's hands, pinning the woman down. V didn't realize that she had moved her hands to be under her output's knees until after. V squirmed even more under her output.
"I've got a job for her." Panam's voice, normally full of life and fire, was unnaturally subdued, "It's about Saul."
"Make it quick." Judy's voice caused shivers to run down V's body. Judy turned the holo so that it was facing the merc, and V knew fully well that the nomad could see everything, especially the effect Judy was having on her.
"What happened." V forced out, her chest and her hair wildly disheveled, V couldn't look at the screen, but a noise from Judy forced her attention away from the wall she was staring at to the holo.
"I'm calling at a really bad time aren't I?" Panam's voice told both women that the nomad was regretting her decision to call when she did. "I can ca-."
"It's a perfect time." Judy interrupted and ground her wet sex into V's waist. "Just hurry up."
"Saul's been taken hostage by the Raffen." Panam gulped. "V, I need your help getting him out."
"She'll be there as soon as she can." Judy answered for the merc.
"Whe-?" Panam started but Judy disconnected the call. Judy tossed the holo back onto the discarded clothes and looked to V with fire in her eyes.
"Just a friend?" Judy asked, her voice controlled, but the wet flesh pressed against V's waist gave her away. "She better stay that way."
"I'm a one output kind of girl." V promised, swallowing hard as she looked to the woman still kneeling over her.
"Good girl," Judy leaned down to press a hungry kiss to V's hot lips. When Judy pulled back, a devilish grin spread across her lips. "Then you'd better get going."
"Sounds urgent." V agreed, though neither woman moved from their spot.
"Then you need to get ready." Judy smirked and got off of the merc. V was about to protest, but her output took one of her hands and tugged on her arm. V got up and followed her output to the bathroom.
Judy pulled V along into her bathroom, the merc more than willing to follow. V felt her legs weaken when Judy pressed her up against the shower wall and turned on the warm water. V let her output take hold of her wrists and brought them up over their heads.
"Hold on." Judy ordered and V realized that her hands were now gripping the neck of Judy's shower spout.
"Yes, Judy." V could feel her body on fire, and the warm waters falling onto her and Judy only made the feeling more intense.
V watched her output as she started washing herself under the warm waters, V's eyes fixated on every movement and she felt her drench sex pulse with need when Judy dropped a hand to her own and pulled a light moan from herself. Judy's face showed only devilish delight as she forced V to watch, it took all of V's willpower to not let go of the shower neck. Judy stepped in close enough to put a light but hungry kiss to V's lips.
"Who is Panam?" Judy questioned, placing a kiss to V's neck and her hands cupping both of V's breasts.
"A friend." V moaned, "She's a nice person."
"Nice?" Judy trailed a hand down V's stomach, stopping at her hip. "How nice?"
"She's got a temper." V's back arched, trying to get closer to her tormentor. "But good in a fight."
"Anything else, V?" Judy nibbled on the skin of V's neck, her hand on V's hip drifting down to her throbbing sex.
"Great ass." V admitted, her breaths heavy. "Better than mine."
"No secrets." Judy breathed against V's neck, her hand finally reaching V's throbbing clit and gently rubbing it.
"River, the badge." V moaned, trying to keep her voice from a scream. Only two nights and Judy's fingers knew all the spots to drive V mad.
"What about him, V." Judy pressed, teasing the merc's folds.
"Family man, wanted something with me." V's hips bucked against Judy's hand, her mind struggling to answer. "Shot him down."
"Good girl." Judy whispered and laid a heavy kiss to V's lips, finally pushing two fingers into V's core. It only took two curls of Judy's fingers to pull V's orgasm from her. The merc's body flooded with euphoria and Judy kept her riding her bliss for as long as possible. After being let down from her orgasm, V let go of the shower neck and wrapped her arms around Judy, holding the woman close in a loving embrace.
"Your turn." V breathed out into Judy's ear and kissed the side of her output's neck. V felt the other woman quake in anticipation in her arms.
"Good girl." Judy purred.
Rita watched with curiosity as a silver Porsche 911 Turbo pulled into the parking lot next to Lizzie's. The windows of the ancient yet pristine car were too tinted for Rita to see inside, but she didn't have to wait long before a familiar head of green and pink hair got out of the passenger side. Rita watched as Judy walked away from the silver classic car and headed towards the bouncer. Rita didn't even try to hold off the shit eating grin that plastered itself to her face as she watched Judy's noticeably lighter steps than normal, the blissful smile across her face, or the still wet and dishevelled hair sticking to her head.
"Looks like you had a fun time." Rita teased, holding out her bat to block Judy's path into the bar. "Gone longer than most thought you'd be."
"Wasn't long enough." Judy laughed, trying to push the bat away to no avail.
"So, different output?" Rita nodded towards the now retreating silver Porsche, "Or does your merc in shining leather just have amazing taste."
"V certainly has amazing taste." Judy smiled back, still trying to move the bat away. "How much did you win?"
"Win?" Rita asked, feigning innocence, "Enough to make a lot of our boys and girls cut out takeout for the week."
"You're not getting any deets outa me, Rita." Judy knew exactly what the Moxx bouncer wanted.
"Then I'll just have to squeeze them outa that output of yours next time she's here." Rita grinned with mischief in her eyes. "Got plenty a stories I can use to get everything I want out of her."
"You wouldn't dare." Judy glared playfully, remembering her early years with the Moxx.
"Try me doll." Rita's face almost hurt from how massive her grin had grown. The two stared off for a few moments before Judy relented.
"Fine, come down to my workshop, I'll give you some deets over lunch." Judy sighed and started walking past Rita, the bat lifted back to her shoulder. "But none of the good ones."
"Girl's gotta have her secrets!" Rita called after Judy before the doors to Lizzie's closed behind her.
Rita waited a few moments before opening up her contacts on her optics. She sent a quick message to Judy's output.
Bonk ;)
It took only a moment for V's response.
Booooonk ^_^
You're welcome, I expect deets in payment
We had a lovely date…... Bonk
Rita's devilish grin took on an evil tint. She would still need to extort information from the two women.
