"That was, what, our first successful trip into the Matrix in how long?"
Mace asked.
"Oh, more than three weeks." Strife answered.
"How are they doing?"
"Better. They'll be going into the Matrix for the first time since Trinity choked in four days." Tank answered.
"I just hope she can survive." Strife commented.
"She's stronger than you could ever believe. She's invulnerable when Neo's standing next to her." Tank shot out, defending Trinity's strength.
"Enough. Everyone, go to your jobs." Morpheus ended the conversation, sending everyone scattering.
~~*~~
"Morning."
"Evening, actually." Neo responded with a smile.
"Oh no, how long did you let me sleep?" Trinity asked.
"As long as you needed." Neo leaned down and kissed her on the forehead.
"Men."
"Women." Neo shot back.
"Can we do this?" Trinity asked, suddenly afraid of actually having skin on skin contact with Neo.
"Not if you don't want to. If you're not ready to-"
"Fuck with being ready. Neo, we'll never be ready. If I put this off until tomorrow, or the next day, or whenever, I may not be alive to do this."
"Your right. We'll never fully-"
"Recover, I know. But right now, being in your arms is so much better a recovery than being in a medical bed." Trinity smiled, sliding her body on top of his.
The petty banter started up again, as neither of them had thought it would.
"Oh really? What have you got against medical beds? If I remember correctly, we made good use of a medical bed once."
"Twice." Trinity blushed at Neo's surprised look that she would keep count of how many times they'd slept together on a medical bed.
"You remember all the times we-?" Neo trailed off his question.
"Oh yeah. Wouldn't want to forget any of them, now would I?"
"Well, maybe not the first one, but maybe the." Neo's words trailed off as Trinity silenced him with a kiss.
It awoke in him a need for her that had been ignored due to the miscarriage and the aftermath. She needed him as much as he did her, and they wrapped their arms around each other, taking the other in as much as possible. Trinity couldn't get enough of Neo, his smell, his warmth, the way he made her feel with the slightest touch. She melted whenever he ran his fingers up her back. Upon shedding their clothes, his own weak spot was also revealed. Trinity dragged her nails, however stubby, up his spine. She felt his body quiver, as he became driven with the sheer want of her.
Trinity gasped as Neo moved on top of her and slowly kissed her neck and moved upward tantalizingly slowly. He covered her lips with his own, taking her in. The passion drove them to the brink and back again uncountable times. Neo finally collapsed- breaking at the same time Trinity did, and fell contently to sleep against her. Trinity lay awake for a few moments longer, thinking about Neo. He was perfect, more than he believed or would ever know. His humanity made him stronger than anyone would know.
Trinity would guide him that day, and every day forward. For Neo, Trinity was the one. The one for him and the one to keep him alive. The war against the machines was far from over, but it was here where the tides would turn. Not in the Matrix with Neo destroying one agent after another, but rather in this room, with the only person he would ever love. It was here where confessions were whispered, talked about, or even gasped out. His strength didn't come from him being the One, but rather from his love for Trinity and it's shared feelings. She made him believe. And believe is the strongest weapon against anything.

And so it ends... Again. My first fic that I had ever written for The Matrix is now completely uploaded. I was always very critical of myself over this piece. Not really much plot...sappy in some places, cry worthy in others...I really laid on the tearjerker thing, didn't I by the end? Well, as I said, it was my first piece, and since then, I think I've improved. If my other assorted fics prove anything...Well, I must say, that there is only one last Matrix fic I have to finish, and then I close up shop, take a break, and upload my Star Wars fic instead... hehe. It's true! Yes, I was an Anakin/Padme shipper long before I was a Neo and Trinity shipper, shocked right? But now, I'm all for Neo and Trinity. And all I wanna do is continue this writing. So, short break I think, 'cause I just can't stay away from fan fiction writing, and I hope you guys don't want me to go. But alas, I need to slow down sometime. I have been writing fictional pieces nonstop since April of this year, and I have been updating nonstop since July. No break whatsoever. I think I earned it. But I don't want a long one...Can't stay away. So, hasta luego, and thank you, so much, you guys just made me smile with your reviews, even when I was unhappy. Go read A Moment of Understanding; it'll get wrapped up soon, I think. Adios.
