Chapter 9: Ease the Pain
He slowly entered her room and tried not make a sound, but that plan didn't work so well. The door slammed shut and the once sleeping Robin awoke. Her eyes searched for the source of the noise, which she didn't quite find. Instead, she found Amon. At first she thought she was hallucinating but when he moved closer she knew he was no illusion.
"Amon"
She tried to sit up but in a seconds time Amon was beside her making her lie down.
"Don't be stupid; you're in no condition to move."
She nodded as her eyes searched his face. They held an unspoken question. A question he had hoped she wouldn't ask.
"I am so sorry Robin. I'm not fit to be your guardian."
She shook her head and reached out to caress his cheek. He didn't deny her
"It wasn't your fault Amon. You just couldn't control your craft."
He was a bit shocked that she knew but the feeling quickly passed.
"How did you know?"
"I saw you. You have a pretty cool craft. With a bit of help, you could be quite powerful."
She gave him a reassuring smile that made his heart skip a beat. He took her small hand in his and placed a kiss on it. She was as shocked as he was by his actions. Why did I just do that?
"Robin, do you know what exactly my craft is?"
"Not really, but you did use a lot of energy blast."
"I see"
Well that really doesn't help but at least now I know where those lights were coming from. He felt pressure on his hand and noticed that he was still holding onto Robin's hand. He didn't know why, but he didn't want to let go. At least not yet. Robin shifted to get more comfortable completely forgetting about her wound. She was painfully reminded when her free hand made contact with her still fresh injury. She felt her eyes water but the tears never came. Instead she felt warmth come over here.
Once again, his own actions surprised him, but he couldn't stand seeing her in pain because of his careless mistake. He wrapped his arms around her petite form hoping to subdue her pain. She looked at him and he was soon lost in her eyes. When it happened he hadn't known, but suddenly he found his face mere inches away from hers.
"Amon"
Her voice was so soft, and her eyes. They showed no sigh of fear or pain. She trusted him and at the moment she wanted him. He leaned closer until she could feel his warm breath on her face.
"Let me ease your pain."
His lips met hers and he could no longer control himself. The fact that she wasn't resisting wasn't helping either. He made love to her then. It was the least he could do after shooting and nearly killing her. He just hoped that with that reason he could convince her... And himself.
Awww! That's so sweet! But I still wish that was me and not Robin. Actually, no, I don't wish that. Why? I don't wanna get shot! I'm too young! lol. I think ya'll know what to do now, right? See, I knew ya'll were smart. :-)
