"The next few months Renee was either at Natalies' or Natalie at her house. They were teammates most of the time now, and they even had Dr. Caustic over for dinner at her house a few times. Life couldn't have been better for the sullen legend. They were sitting in Natalie's bed just enjoying the company of each other when Renee looked over from her book and smiled. I think I'm falling in love with her. Renee couldn't peel her eyes away from the young blonde in the bed next to her. Natalie was sketching a design to improve the radius of her pylon. She let the book rest in her lap as she watched Natalie's hand move on the sketchpad. "No, I think I'm irrevocably in love with her. Renee's smile fell. What if she doesn't feel the same. I have so many issues, and what if... Renee could feel the tears collecting in her eyes at the idea of Natalie leaving her.
Natalie was drawing a cute Nessie with a Kunai when she heard a sniffle. Her eyes furrowed as she looked over at her girlfriend. "Mon amour, What's wrong?" She asked. Renee's mouth opened, but the tears fell down her face without permission. Natalie set her sketchbook down. She turned towards Renee and reached out to pull her into an embrace. "What's wrong?" She quietly asked again. Renee sniffles loudly, "I love you." She sobbed as Natalie pulled back a little to look at her in confusion. "Cherie, I love you too." She waited for Renee to elaborate. "How can you say that when you don't even know me?" Renee blurted out. Natalie recoiled as she looked at the skirmisher in shock. "What do you mean I don't know you? Of course I know who you are. You are the very first person I think of when I wake up and my last thought before I go to sleep. I love everything about you." Natalie countered. "How can you love the ghost of someone?" Renee choked out and pulled away from Natalie. "I'm not even a real person." Renee looked down.
Natalie pulled her closer and dug her face into Renee's neck as tears fell from both of their faces. "You're not a ghost. You are the person that makes me a better person, and I love everything about you." Natalie's voice broke as she pulled back to look into her girlfriends icy blue eyes, "I love who you are now; not the person you used to be." *Look at what you just did. You made her cry. What is wrong with you?* The voices angrily ranted. Renee looked up at her world and felt the tears fall faster. Fix it before she really does leave! She thought as she reached out to pull the crying blonde into her arms. "I'm sorry." She whispered out. "I'm sorry too." Natalie whispered out. Natalie pressed her lips into Renee's. The kiss was slow and deliberate as Renee lightly pushed her down. Natalie started the kiss and she finished it. They laid on their sides staring into each other's eyes as sleep lulled them away.
The sun caused Renee to flinch as the light was shining into her eyes. She leaned forward and kissed the sleeping blonde next to her. "Good morning love." She whispered out. Natalie's eyes opened, "Good morning." She sleepily replied. Renee stood and stretched. "I have to meet Anita in a half hour. Do you want me to come back afterwards or do you want to come over to my house?" She asked as she picked up her pants from the floor. "I want you to move in." Natalie confidently stated. "I mean…" Her confidence wavered at the look on Renee's face. The skirmisher dropped her pants and her brow furrowed. "You want me to move in with you?" Natalie smiled, "I mean we are always at each other's houses anyways." She said as she looked down. Renee bit her lip then smirked. "I mean it will have to wait until I am done with training, but I'm in if you are." She squeaked as she was pulled back into the bed by her girlfriend. She turned and pressed her lips to Natalie's. The kiss heated quickly, and the skirmisher's hand slid down Natalie's body, lightly tracing the top of her core before she pulled her hand away. She smirked at the frustrated sigh of the blonde. "Anita likes punctuality." She said as she got out of the bed. "Not fair." Natalie huffed. "I promise to make it up later." Renee called out as she walked out of the room.
Man, I am so sore. I just want to take a hot shower then go to Nat's house. Renee thought to herself as she got her keys out to unlock the door. She went to insert the key when the door opened. "What the hell? She instinctively moved her hand to her Kunai ready to attack the intruder when Mirage walked out with a box in his hands. "I changed the locks, How the hell did you get into my….Why do you have a box of my stuff?" She glared. "Natalie called in the cavalry to help you move." He carefully said squeezing past her towards safety. She turned and surely enough Path and Nox were walking out with boxes in hand as well. "Where's Natalie?" Renee evenly asked. Nox flicked his head towards the direction of the hallway, and Renee set off towards the bedroom.
"Let's mark this box special bedroom stuff." She giggled as she set the strap and a few toys they had gotten into the box quickly setting one of Renee's shirts on the top of them. "Nat, What's going on?" Renee asked as she looked around her disheveled room. "I figured I would get started since you were busy." Natalie smiled. "We just decided this morning. I haven't even digested this yet." Renee ran her hand through her hair sighing in frustration. Natalie's brow furrowed, and she stood up. "Mon amour, I'm sorry if...this is too sudden. I'll have the boys bring back your things." She looked down. Renee took a steadying breath, "No, I just didn't expect it. I'm sorry." She said as she walked over to pull Natalie into her arms. She kissed her cheeks and then her nose before pressing her lips firmly to Natalie's. The kiss quickly heated as Renee guided Natalie towards the wall. She kissed down the side of Natalie's face then started placing wet kisses down her neck before sucking on her pulse point. Natalie let out a low moan wrapping her arms behind the skirmisher. "Mon amour." She moaned out as Renee's hand dipped between them, and landed at the apex of her thighs. She began to apply pressure when the bedroom door opened causing the two to jump apart. "I…" Elliot started but quickly retreated from the red faced women. "Later." Renee looked at Natalie and smiled. "Oui." She answered back walking back towards the box with more clothing in hand.
