~~hello readers. my apologies for the three long chapters of back story but I have a strong belief in well developed characters. enjoy chapter 4~~
Breathe Luna. Calm down. What was the next step after this? I have to call 911, yes! Ok now just walk inside the get the keys…It was difficult though. I found it hard to move and divert my eyes away from the man that lie barely conscious in the wreck.
"Hey…Can you hear me?" I called out to him. His face seemed more relaxed than before, could he have passed on? What a shame…I had never seen a more handsome man with a build that was almost inhuman, this guy could've been a model or a movie star for all I knew. I wonder what events transpired before his demise. Dare I approach his body? I needed to check his pulse so I could determine the urgency of the situation if he was still alive.
I carefully skid into the trench while scanning the area once more. I couldn't believe there was no one else around to see this, I mean how often do instances like this occur? I hovered over his body, still hesitate to approach him any further. It seemed like a strange heat had been radiated from him similar to the way a machine did when it was overheated. Gently, I kneeled besides his head and press two fingers against his massive neck to feel for a pulse. His was warmer than expected, almost feverish, but he was definitely alive. I had never felt a more angrier pulse, could he have been sick? How was this man even ALIVE dammit?!
"Um..Sir? Hey are you ok?" I placed my hand upon his heaving chest and gently shook him. Damn he was rock solid, I had to fan my mental self and remind myself of the strange situation I was in.
"Aw man that really hurt.." he suddenly groaned, knocking me out the trance I had been in from observing his body. His body shifted slightly as his sealed eyes squinted in obvious pain.
"Oh wow Beerus really did a number on me this time. Haha I can't even move!" he added in a surprisingly light tone. I was speechless. This was not the reaction you'd expect from someone who just fell out of the sky. His sultry eyes were suddenly open and on me. They were a unique obsidian grey and I tried hard not to look too deeply into them.
"Uh…um" I was having trouble compiling any of the thoughts I had prior to him looking directly at me. I quickly shook my head and snapped out of it.
"Are you alright? How did you end up here? Who is Beerus? How are you still even alive-" I stopped myself realizing I had been asking too many questions and gave the stranger a chance to answer any one of them.
"Oh well I'm going to be fine don't worry about me! Also I'm not exactly sure how I got here or where I am for that matter. Where am I miss?" He asked, cocking his head to the side, and in the same light tone he had been using before.
"Uh we're on Riverside in Austin. Do you need an ambulance? I should go call 911, I can't even imagine the pain you're probably in." I said as I stood up. I couldn't believe I was trying to converse with him in his condition, his head probably wasn't all there right now.
"Wait a minute!" He called out below me. "Where is Riverside in Austin? Also please don't bother taking me to the hospital! All I need is a meal and a full nights rest!" He said with the biggest grin on his face. God he was good looking. But what the hell, was this guy serious?
"Hm..I'm not sure if you realized this but you're laying in a hole— that you apparently created from the impact of falling into the ground! I'm not sure how you're even alive at this point. And we're in Austin,Texas. Were you somewhere else before this?"
He wore a puzzled look on his face, still cute as fuck. Ugh his looks were really becoming a distraction for me.
"Well last I remember I was on Lord Beerus's planet training with him and Vegeta. We had just started a new regiment that involved using us as his punching bags to build a tolerance against God strength. Hmm oh that's right! I might've made a comment that made Beerus pretty angry and everything is pretty much fuzzy after that heh heh." chuckling from his own comment I stood there dumbfounded. This guy definitely hit his head way too hard on the pavement, I felt sorry for him in a way.
"Ok so I am definitely going to go get you some help. Just stay put and I'll be back in 10 minutes tops!" I said, proceeding to climb out of the trench.
"No! Please wait! I know it sounds crazy but I'm telling you the truth. I can even prove it to you once I've gained my strength back! I don't want to cause too much of a commotion. Um would you happen to have any food heh heh?" There was that grin again! Was he really not severely injured? Should I just bring him inside? Oh dear GOD how was I supposed to explain this Damien?! I'd have to worry about that later, what was I going to do now?
"You really don't want to go to the hospital do you?"
"Only because it's not necessary! Geez I can hardly move. Would you mind helping me up?" He asked slowly raising his massive hand towards me. My eyes darted to his incredibly muscular arms and my 120 pound body, did he really expect that I would be of any help at all? Despite his lack of logic I reached my hand out towards his and watched it disappear as he grabbed onto my wrist instead. The second he attempted to apply any weight to his grasp around my wrist I could feel myself being violently yanked down. Adjusting my stance, I quickly grabbed onto his wrist with my other hand to provide some more leverage in this pathetic attempt to get him onto his feet. His bulky shoulder had barely made it off the ground when his weight had finally taken its toll on me causing me to be yanked right into his bare chest. My cheek smacked right into his broad pecks. I looked up to meet his intense smoldering eyes, our faces only inches apart. Completely flustered I immediately sat up and rubbed my face.
"Fuck! You're pretty damn solid aren't you?" I asked still pressing against my sore cheek until noticed that I was sitting right atop his torso. I felt a warmth creep onto my face as I dashed to my feet apologizing repeatedly.
"Hahaha don't worry about it you're as light as a feather! No wonder you weren't any help though." He said with a hand behind his head. Still I felt so embarrassed. What kind of night was this turning into? I was supposed to be snuggled up in bed with my animal friends and a good book by now..Why did this guy have to be so fucking good looking?! This would have been way easier to deal with if he was just hideous.
"Well I guess I'm stuck down here until I regain some of my strength to get up. Are you ok by the way? You're energy has been all over the place." He asked me with a concerned expression. This man was stuck lying in a pit asking me if I was ok. He was certainly something else. And my energy? Did he think he was some kind of psychic or something? I guess I hadn't been hiding my emotions as well as I usually would. Could you blame me though, look at the situation I was in!
"Seriously don't worry about me. Is there any way I could help you within my capabilities at this moment?" I asked kneeling beside his enormous body.
"Hm well I am pretty hungry! Would you mind bringing me some food?" He blurted with a sheepish grin, it was hard not to stare when he smiled at me that way. How could he even be thinking about food at a time like this? Well if this was the only way I could help him…God I hoped no one would catch me bringing this crippled Adonis food in the state he was in. They'd think I was crazy for sure.
"If you insist…I don't really have many groceries. You'll have to settle for instant ramen if you don't mind?"
"That sounds good! By the way I don't I even think I got your name. My name is Goku, I really appreciate your help!" His smile gleamed right through my soul. With a face like that he must've been used to women waiting on him hand and foot. He didn't seem like the cocky type though…
"Um yeah don't mention it. My name is Luna. I'll be back in a sec with your food ok?" I said already on my way out of the trench to avoid eye contact. I couldn't risk him catching the blush I felt spreading across my face. Ugh why did this have to be so goddamn difficult? It had been years since I felt this nervous around a guy…or a man I should say. This isn't the time or place Luna! Snap out of it! I was halfway to my front door when I heard Goku talking to himself in the pit.
"Luna…I really like that name."
Keep. Calm. Luna.
