The next morning, Xya's eyes fluttered opened and felt the warm, firm chest under her cheek. She lifted her head and stared down at the face of the mouse who made her feel safe and secure for the first time in her life. Xya lowered her head again, playing with the white fur on his toned stomach, then said, "Vinnie, I can get used to waking up, just like this."
Vinnie was still in a deep sleep, reliving the aspects of what occurred the night before. Especially making love to Xya for the first time. Then, his mind went somewhere he wasn't expecting. In his dream, he was riding his bike in the sand, just like any other time. However, just to his right, flying beside him was Xya, his now wife, and his twin kids, who inherited their mother's traits with the exception of having all white fur and his eyes, flying on his left.
Xya felt his body twitch beneath her, then asked, "What are you dreaming about?" She lifted her head, shifted her body up his, aligning her antenna with the top of his head, then lowering her head so the tips of her antenna touched his head. She closed her eyes, letting her Mind Walk, read his thoughts. She almost instantly saw what Vinnie was dreaming and, it frightened her. She removed her arm, uncovering them both and got off the slab. She sat on the floor in a corner of the cave, wrapping her arms, and her wings around her, shielding herself from the man, who made her feel for the first time, normal.
Vinnie woke, when he didn't feel the weight of Xya on his chest. He rolled off of the slab, not caring about his nakedness, but more caring about the woman who occupied his thoughts and dreams. He heard her light sobs off in a dark corner of the cave. Walking in the direction of the sobs, he asked, "Xya, babe, you ok?"
From the safety from the cocoon she wrapped herself in, she responded, "I'm alright, I guess. I saw something, I wasn't ready for."
He knelt to her left, placing his right arm around her shoulders. "What did you see?"
Xya lifted her head from her thighs, looked Vinnie directly in the eyes, through her tear stained ones, and answered, "Vinnie, before I answer you, I need to know, how you really feel about me? Because, what I saw in your dream, is something, I always envisioned, but never thought could be possible."
Vinnie knew how he felt about her, and he really liked that feeling a lot! Even though, some part of him will always belong to Charley. What he felt for Xya went much deeper that he ever thought possible. "Xya, I can see my life, with you by my side, as mine. When I was on Earth, I thought I had found that certain someone, who would accept me for what I am. And she did. The day we returned to Mars, I laid my heart out to her. I told her I wanted her to be my wife, have my kids, become a family. We kissed, rather deeply, and when I told her that I loved her, she told me to get out and don't look back. Even though we have known each other for less than a day, those same feelings are coming back, even stronger than before, this time for you."
Xya un-folded her arms from around her legs, fell onto her knees in front of him, hugged him tightly, then said, "I saw you, riding on your bike, with me, as your wife, flying along side of you, and our two kids, flying with us."
Vinnie fell to his knees, as he listened to Xya telling him what she saw in his dreams. And if he was truly honest with himself, he would admit, he wanted those things too, desperately. He embraced Xya as tightly as she hugged him. "Xya, my brothers have gotten serious with their gals. I see them, getting married, having families of their own, making me the loving uncle, that is the hopeless flirt, but never settles down. And I hate it! I thought I had a shot at doing the whole domestic thing with Charley, but if I did marry her, I would have missed out on being with the woman, I was meant to be with, forever. As long as you don't mind, being with a guy, who will occasionally will make a lewd comment at a girl in a short skirt, I'd like to have, what my brothers have, with you."
Xya lifted her head from his shoulder and with a few tears in her eyes, she asked, "You.. you really want, all that, with someone, like me?"
His response was to gently lay his left hand under her chin, making sure she couldn't turn away, as he answered, "Yes, Xya. I want those things, with you. Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to kiss you."
"Please do," she said and closed her eyes, waiting for his kiss.
Vinnie leaned forward and kissed her, with all the passion he could.
She kissed him back, pulling him on top of her, and wrapping her legs around his waist.
"Xya, if we don't stop, I won't be able to control myself," he said, before kissing her again.
Xya moaned in pleasure, feeling his erection, pressing against her stomach. She reached down, aligning the tip with her opening, and said, "I don't want you to stop. Take me, Vinnie!"
He gently rolled his hips forward, sliding into her, feeling her insides encasing him, holding him tight. He rocked his hips, back and forth, sliding in and out of her, touching those spots inside of her, that made her quiver in pleasure.
"Vinnie, I'm going to explode," she said through a moan.
"Almost there as well, babe," he managed to grunt out.
A few more thrusts later, he roared, flooding her with his release, which triggered her own orgasmic bliss. Her body, clenched tightly around him, ensuring none of his essence escaped.
A few minutes after basking in the afterglow of one of the best sexual experiences he had ever had. He quickly kissed her, then said, "That was mind blowing, Xya." He slid out of her, rolled onto his left side, pulling her with him, and as he ran his fingers through her hair, he said, "Move in with me. I want the world to see the amazing woman, I'm going to call mine."
She stroked the side of his face that wasn't encased with metal, and said, "I'm more bat like than you realize. As long as you don't mind, finding me hanging upside down every once in awhile. Yes, I will move in with you."
They kissed one more time, before he let her go, so they could stand up.
"Vinnie, as much as I love seeing you in the buff, I don't need every woman on Mars seeing what's mine. Do you have any idea where your pants are?" She asked.
Hours later, the two lovers arrived back in town. Vinnie rode in, kicking up a sandstorm as he rode, while Xya flew right above him.
There were quite a few gasps from the other mice as their eyes fell on the flying mouse.
However, as she landed next to Vinnie, several of the very young mice ran up to her, asking her exactly what she was and how they could get wings like hers.
Xya wasn't expecting all the attention she was getting. She figured the parents would have grabbed their kids, shielding them from her. But instead, the children thought she was the coolest thing on Mars. They even wanted to touch her wings.
Vinnie leaned back against him bike, watching as Xya, gleefully answered their questions, and even letting them touch her wings.
One little girl had just finished touching Xya's left wing, then did something Xya wasn't expecting, she jumped up and hugged her, as she said, "I like you, Xya. Can you be my friend?"
Xya hugged her back, and said, "Of course, I will be your friend. What's your name?"
"It's Spring," the little girl answered and kissed Xya's left cheek.
Vinnie was paying so much attention to the scene in front of him, he didn't hear his brothers walk up to him.
"Vinnie, who's that?" Throttle asked.
He answered without removing his eyes from her, "She's my girl, Throttle. Xya is moving in with me."
"We leave you alone for one day, and you go and find a woman, who willingly wants to move in with you," Modo teased.
"Say what you want, but she's mine and I'm hers. One day, I'm going to call her my wife, if the Goddess of Mars allows," Vinnie said.
"Aren't you moving things along rather quick, Vin?" Modo asked.
"When was the last time you knew me to do anything slow?" Vinnie asked.
Both Throttle and Modo looked at each other for a second, then back to Vinnie. Simultaneously they said, "Never."
"Damn right. I want what both of you have with Carbine and Iris. Xya makes me feel, wonderful and complete."
"Vin, thought you said you would never get over Charley?" Throttle asked.
"Charley will always be a part of my life I will never forget. One day, I hope to return to Earth, with Xya on my arm, as my wife," Vinnie stated.
"Don't you think that is going to hurt her, considering what you two shared?" Modo asked.
Vinnie turned to face Modo, then said, "Don't you think she hurt me!? I told her, I loved her! And she tells me to leave her, and never look back! She hurt me, more than having half of my face blown off! I thought Charley was the one I would spent my life with, have a family, grow old together, and she more or less, threw me out! Now, I have Xya in my life and I will be damned, if I ever let her go! I love her!"
His last sentence caught Xya's ears, very well. She gently put Spring down, and flew at Vinnie, as fast as she could, shoving him to the ground and pinning his arms above his head. "Vinnie! I'm only going to ask you this once! Do you really love me!?"
Vinnie looked up into her eyes, and saw himself back in reflection. What he saw was a mouse, in love with the woman, who captivated his soul. "I do love you, Xya. I love you, more than I have loved another."
"Then kiss me, you wonderful mouse!" She said, right before sealing her lips with his.
Xya let go of his arms, he wrapped them around her waist, holding her tight against him.
As they kissed, Spring went over to Modo, tugged on his jeans, to get his attention, then said, "They look good together."
"That they do, Spring," Modo replied. He picked her up in his arms, then asked, "Let's leave the two love-mice alone, want to go for a ride?"
"Yes! But I have to ask my mommy first." Spring said.
"Alight, Spring." He said, then turned to Throttle and said, "You know where the hose is, if you need it."
Throttle shook his head and left to go and find Carbine.
Almost as soon as he was gone, Xya pulled back from their intense kiss. She looked down at Vinnie, then said, "I love you too, you wonderful hunk-of-a-mouse." She looked around and noticed, they were completely alone, then said, "I guess we drove everyone away."
"Guess we did, but that kiss was.. wow! Care to let me up, doll?" He asked.
She felt his erection pushing against her again, something she would never tire of, and said, "I could, if you want everyone to see the large tent in your pants."
Vinnie smirked at her, then asked, "Care to do something about it?"
"If we were in our home, definitely. But we are outside, in public I might add. Now, I might be willing to rock your world, if we were alone, babe," she said, very sultry.
He ran is fingers through her hair, as he said, "You are going to be the death of me."
"Well, I can't have that, can I?" She kissed him, slipping her tongue into his mouth, then said, "Tonight, I'm going to ride that, until there is nothing left." She kissed him one more time, before flying away.
He watched as she flew higher into the sky and when she flew behind a set of buildings, he said, "I need to get a ring on her, sooner than later." He waddled back to his bike, hiding the problem between his legs, and went after Xya.
