Chapter 8 Behind Our own Eye's
Seras had her face burried in her palms, the brown gloves hid away the nervous sweat that broken on the surface of her soft skin. The sweat was only visible on her arms, not covered by any fabric. Dayne was driving down the stretch of road that used to be flooded with people. He kept glancing at the road, then to Seras' pose in the passenger seat, then back to the road. Will you please get into a better mood, you're killing me for god sake. Seras' only response was a slight twitching in her shoulder's. Dayne decided to try and get her attention so he swerved the car back and forth. Seras sat upright and told Dayne off. I don't know if you're smart enough to understand but I could have easily as hell have torn you're throat out and murdered you back there.
Well yeah of course I understand, replied Dayne, but who really gives a shit about me? Even my own squad mates rarely give a shit about my orders. I GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOU, answered Seras. Oh see now you're just trying to make me feel better, said Dayne. Do you just think of everything as one big joke, asked Seras? Well, said Dayne, not everything. That is my last straw. stop the car, ordered Seras. Why? NOW! Dayne brought the car to a stop on the road that went around central park. Seras got out of the car and slammed the door. Where are you going, asked Dayne franticly while getting out of the car? I'm getting away from you, replied Seras. No no no Seras wait cried Dayne as he grabbed her hand. Seras' reaction was flat palming him to the chest, sending him flying into the car. I don't want to hurt you said Seras under her breath. Seras please don't go said Dayne holding out a trembling hand, forgive me, God please forgive me.
Seras held back the tears as long as she could as she walked into the massive park.
What have I become, my sweetest friend? Everyone I know goes away in the end.
Dayne sat back and cried, I'm such a fuck up, the tears rolled down his face. She doesn't even know about the people that hide out there. She could be killed, or worse.
And you could have it all, my empire of dirt. I will let you down, I will make you hurt.
Seras had already walked out of sight. No I can't let her go wandering off, grunted Dayne as he lifted himself up and got back into the acura.
Was it really the right thing to do? Was I just being childish? Seras kept asking herself questions like this. Grey clouds moved over head and rain started to pour from the gray sky, drenching her clothe's and matting down her hair. Great, sighed Seras, it just keeps getting better. She saught shelter under an overpass, leaning against a wall and letting her body gently slide to the floor. This is why nobody cares about me, pouted Seras, all they do is tease and joke around to make me feel better and I just get mad and leave them. She remembered how it almost turned out differently with Pip. He teased her and messed with her head a little of course but in the end, he showed her that he truly loved and cared for her. Walter cared for her to, he just cared for her in more of a father figure way. Walter! Shit I never even said goodbye when I left, now I feel like a bitch, Yelled Seras as she burried her face in her left palm.
Hey lookie here man it's the same bitch from yesterday. Great, muttered Seras, ass and dumbass. Oh I'm sorry what did you say said Brad walking over to her. Looks like the good ol' captain isn't here to help you this time, cooed Matt. GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME, screamed Seras. OOhhhh this cookie's got some bite to it, chirped brad, this should be interesting, Seras was about to punch his ugly misshapened face in until she felt the cold barrel of a 357. revolver press against the side of her head. The damned thing at that range had enough firepower to dismantle her head and kill her, silver bullet or not. Why don't ya just calm down and enjoy the ride and if you're lucky, we won't kill you when were finished. You fuckin pigs, yelled Seras, is this how you get some because you don't have the balls to ask a woman out.
Her words were greeted with the barrel of the revolver smacking her hard on the head. I deon't remember asking you're opinion said Brad with a crooked grin on his face. Grab her legs, said Brad pressing the barrel of the revolver harder against her head. DAYNE HEEELP! I don't think he's commin ta help ya no..DUCK. The familiar green acura came barreling through the underpass before skidding to a halt on the other side. With brutal force she kicked brad in the balls and started to sprint for the car. BITCH! Brad shot her twice through through the chest, both bullets passing through, the second taking a large portion of her heart with it. Seras fell to the ground, skidding to a halt mere feet away from the car.
Dayne thrust open the driver's door and leaped out with a glock 17. Brad took aim to shoot Dayne, he wasn't quick enough, Dayne shot the gun out of Brad's hand before shooting him straight through the eye socket. The bloody paste shot out the exit wound even seconds after the body hit the ground. Matt reached into his jacket to pull out a handgun, Dayne looked over and shot Matt in the elbow that was retrieving the gun and then a second shot into the left knee cap. Agghh FUCK, screamed Matt. Dayne ran over and tackled Matt's kneeing position into the ground, pummeling away on his face. chill out man it's just a girl aghh. Dayne clasped his hand's together to make a hammer fist and continued to beat Matt's defenseless face in. SAY THAT ONE MORE TIME MOTHERFUCKER, I DARE YA. Seras was still consious and was turned toword's the mauling. She could hear dayne mixing togather a bunch of random words and giberish. She could understand him almost constantly repeating the words, ugly ass mother fucker. With a light chuckle Seras fell unconsious.
Raagghhh! Dayne got a hold of his rage and looked down at the face of Matt, no longer recognizable by anyone, the blood trickling down the bullet holes and the face, blood was dripping from Daynes fist's as he got up and ran towards Seras' unconsious form. He rested the back of her head in his arm and leaned her towards him. one of her chest wound's had already healed up, but the one that went through her heart was barely healing at all. Could she have died if the bullet destroyed her whole heart? Dayne took off his shirt and stuffed it partway into the hole to keep the blood from seeping out. He hugged her head close to his and whispered in her ear. I..I don't know (snif) how to tell you this or if you can even hear me but I have to tell you (snif) that I love you Seras (snif) and I don't wan't anything to happen to you, Because you are the most extraordinary woman anyone could ever hope to be with (snif). Seras woke up in a fit of coughing. (cough) Dayne that was beautiful, her eye lids fluttered and she weakly smiled, did you really (cough) mean that. I mean't every damned sylable, replied Dayne, tears were running down his cheeks. Seras leaned up and pulled him towards herself, kissing him deeply on the lips, she forced her tongue inside his mouth.
It feels so good, I've never felt this way before. Dayne finally got the courage to kiss her back. Seras let out a soft light moan as their kiss continued. Niether of them wanted to stop but soon they slowly pulled away from eachother, their saliva mixed on eachothers toungue's and dripped onto the road of the underpass. Seras hugged Dayne close, their chests were tightly pressed together. Dayne I, Seras' eyes were watering as she smiled, I think I love you to. The two exchanged light kisses and held eachother tightly, looking into eachothers eye's. For those few minutes they were in an unbreakable hold, Both of them had found love
