I ever own such as this royal Trigun? Aaaaahhh! I
don't even own Alex, and I borrowed Abby! *Cries*
Chapter 19: Talking
It was late, about 2:30 in the morning, and I couldn't sleep. The bed felt strange. I can't quite say what was wrong with it, It just felt off for some reason.
Thoughts kept popping into my head, most of them to blame for my insomnia. Alex, the war, my sister, all of them bright in my mind, but my newfound feelings for Alex were the brightest.
Finally getting sick of tossing and turning I slid out of bed and silently padded across the room, so as not to wake my roommate Abby, to my shoes and the door.
I stepped out into the hall, which was deathly silent and began walking.
The halls seemed endless, an endlessness that pulled me into a rhythmic walk, easing my mind. I let my conscious thought recede into the back of my mind, and let my feet unconsciously traverse the halls.
Oh, Alex, what did I do to deserve your love? What have I done to make you feel this way about me? What have you done to make me feel this way about you?
So many question that cried out for answers, and no one was there to answer them.
He had changed me. I could see it in the way I was reacting to everything. I found myself talking quieter, smiling more. I could only say that I felt more at peace.
For so long I had been in an emotional down fall, I didn't know what I was missing out on. Till Alex.
Suddenly I found myself in a dark room. No, not dark. This was one of the Plant rooms.
The bulb in the center of the room pulsed lightly. Than I saw a man. He was standing at the base of the bulb, hands and nose pressed against the surface of the glass.
Then I saw him clearly. It was Alex.
His eyes were closed and he breathing in and out deeply.
He was comuning with the plant. I could see her now, as I stepped closer, and she was beautiful.
Alex slowly opened his eyes and turned his head in my direction. He smiled, "Hello Rem. Want to meet my mother?"
She was even more beautiful up close. Alex came down and led me up to her.
I placed my hands in the exact place Alex had and said quietly, "Hello."
~Hello~ She said, her voice a dynamic echo in my head.
"You can speak to her?" I head Alex's surprised remark, and looked at him confused.
"Is there something wrong with that?"
He shook his head, "No not at all. You must have some dormant psychic ability. Not just any human can speak to Plants telepathically."
"Funny. I never really thought about it." I dropped my hands and faced Alex.
His mother sent a little farewell and floated upward into the murky depths of the bulb.
Alex smiled, kissed my cheek and wrapped an arm around my shoulders, "What are you doing up so late?"
I shrugged, "I couldn't sleep."
"Heh, neither could I."
Alex led me out of the Plant room and into the hall, "I guess it's just one of the days. Or nights. Whichever you prefer."
I wrapped my own arm around his waist and let him lead me.
In what seemed like minutes later we were out side of a door. Alex let go of my shoulders, "This is my stop. You want to come in? I can make you some tea that might help you sleep. And we can talk..."
I smiled, "I'd like that."
Alex's quarters were just like I would have imagined them. I could only say that the room was warm, and inviting. There were impressionist paintings every where. (A/N: the quarters that they have in Star Trek: The Next Generation, come to mind. hehe)
I sat down at a little table in the center of the room as Alex went to make the tea.
He came back a few minutes later with two cups of tea, and sat opposite me. I took the ceramic cup handed to me, and after taking a sip stared into the dark liquid.
"You alright?"
I looked up at him and smiled, "Just fine."
It was now much later, we were sitting side by side on his couch wrapped in each other's arms, talking. He spoke more of his life, and I spoke of mine.
"You gotta admit you've changed a lot." He said.
"You've changed me,"
"Naw, Rem, it was all you, I was just your emotional Support."
I sighed and snuggled closer to him, "Whatever you did, I'm glad you did it."
"Me too." Alex lifted my chin with his finger and kissed me.
