The first thing Nozomi felt returning to consciousness was her head aching. Groaning and rolling to her side away from the grueling star that was poised right at her face, she sighed in content at the softness of the bed she was laying in. The women frowned she wasn't suppose to be in a bed …..the last she remembered she was in her ship...She bolted up right in the bed making her chest flare up in pain at the sudden jostle. It felt as though someone took a flaming hot rod and drew it along her chest and stomach. Clutching her chest and looking down she saw something unexpected.
Her armor was gone and replaced with a large white shirt. Not questioning why it was there she rushed to get the shirt loose and threw it haphazardly across the room. What she saw made her eyes widen. Her chest as well as her stomach was bound in bloody cloth bindings. Nozomi began to unwrap the neatly wrapped bandages to find her source of agony. Once unwrapped she ran one of her hands through hair while tracing the gash with the other . She followed the bloody trail from her left shoulder to her right hip. She cautiously grazed her hand along the wound and winced in pain. The brunette knew she was lucky. Unbelievable lucky actually to be alive still as she was. Drawing her attention away from the ghastly wound she pondered how she came to be in this place. She furrowed her brow trying to think back to before she lost consciousness. I remember my pod landing...then a...soft voice... she thought straining her memory as much as she could her head aching at the strain, ...a girl….yes...an angel... Nozomi shook her head at the thought, trying to clear her head. She brought her hand from her hair down to rub her face trying to force the remains of her unconsciousness out of her system Must of hit my head upon landing here. she assumed. The saiyan then looked about her at the small space she was in. It's not very large but it's still...roomy she thought.
She noticed it was scarce in furniture besides the small dresser against a pale cream colored wall and a small nightstand by the large window to her left. The women reached her legs over the side of the bed cringing in pain at the strain it put on the large wound. She then examined her arms using the lighting from the window. Her arms were covered in numerous cuts and bruises. Some large others small though none serious enough to be worried about , she noted. She looked at her lower half and noticed she wasn't wearing her leggings but instead she had some black shorts on. She blushed, " the girl from last night must have bandaged my wound and brought me to her living facility…. kind, though extremely careless, " She mused out loud her voice lightly echoing around the room, " kind for caring for me, and careless for bringing in a complete stranger. " Her mind wondered to the girl and wishing she was here with her, but she just ignored it. Carefully bending forward she examined her legs noticing they were as bad off as her arms if not worse. There was a severe gash on her right knee that stung quite a bit though not as bad as the monster across her torso. Sighing and looking out the window she noticed the blonde girl coming toward the building she was in.
She carefully turned back onto the bed and faced the stair way awaiting the girl patiently crossing her legs in lotus position she'd learned as a young girl, again wincing at the strain it took on the wound. Soon enough, the blonde teen appeared at the stairs though her eyes weren't on the stranger in her bed, more focused on the plate of food she was carrying. When she was at the top of the stairs she looked up though at the women. Shizu, poor girl, dropped the women's breakfast on the floor letting the contents splatter everywhere and squealing, both averting and covering her eyes to the amusement of the other women.
" What? " Nozomi asked faking a frown and looking at herself in the reflection of the window. " Do I have something in my teeth? " Shizu could do nothing but try and reign in her breathing.
" You...your...top is..." She couldn't even finsh her sentence, she was so embarrassed and….enthralled by the toned muscles of the women in front of her she couldn't think straight. Nozomi looked at herself and then back at the blonde teen. Smirking deviously feigning innocence.
" Yesssss? " She asked batting her eyelashes. Oh would she love tormenting the younger girl or she assumed she was younger. " What about it? " Nozomi couldn't help the giggle that left her lips. Shizu thought the sound was that of an angel but she refrained from saying that and tried to get the woman to put her shirt back on.
" Pl...please...put...on the shirt...or...so..something please! " Shizu squeaked embarrassedly. The older woman only shook her head and tried to lean to get her shirt but her hand slipped an she fell hard. Slamming hard into the ground Nozomi bit her cheek to stop from crying out in pain. She could taste the blood in her mouth but again it was better then showing weakness. Shizu, not caring that the alien was shirtless anymore, she rushed to the fallen women helping her up ever so slowly and gently. There crimson red met hazel eyes and a spark passed between them though neither knew that. Helping the shaky brunette to the bed the blonde teen looked at the spilled breakfast she was bringing to her guest/patient. I guess I'll have to make some more, the saiyans voice caught her attention again.
" T...t...thank you..." Nozomi whispered to the blonde losing her bold demeanor for the time being. Shizu smiled politely wanting so bad to turn the teasing around but knew it wasn't the right moment for that so she simply nodded and laid the women back in her bed. " It means...s. ..much..to .me. " the teen smiled even bigger blushing at the thanks she was earning.
" It's what any sane person would do..." No, No it wasn't. Any sane person would have phoned the authorities but Shizu was a little glad she hadn't because if she had then this beautiful women wouldn't be here with her. The blonde froze, where had that thought come from? She shifted that thought to the back of her head for now focusing on the injured brunette in front of her. Nozomi's thoughts were jumbled at this point, she'd lost all her confidence when she looked into the blondes hazel eyes...she knew what happened...she imprinted on her...the once and a lifetime connection a member of her race makes on their soulmate. Nozomis heart rate picked up and her face flushed with a heavy blush. Shizu frowned noticing this and felt the brunettes forehead.
" Are you feeling alright? " Shizu asked with concern for her guest. " You're face is flushed and you're burning up." Nozomi found the strangers kindness endearing and nodded her head yes flushing more. Shizu looked unconvinced and asked for Nozomi to wait a moment to go and get her a wet cloth. Once the blonde disappeared the brunette saiyan grabbed the shirt off of the floor, careful not to further harm herself. Putting it on she tried to gather her thoughts. Why now of all times? Mother said it would happen sooner or later but will she accept me….. Why is it this blonde female? Though she is very beautiful... She shook her head. She wasn't getting anywhere with her thoughts so she laid back on the covers laying on her left side facing the stairway, she didn't have to wait long for the blonde to return.
" I see you put the shirt back on, " Shizu said smiling, " About time." Nozomi knew the blonde was being playful so she stuck her tongue out at her a smile gracing her beautiful face. The blonde teen blushed at the saiyan bringing her yet another tray of food and a cool watered down cloth. Laying the plate of food down on the nightstand Shizu sat on the edge of the bed. She had her guest lay on her back so she could apply the cloth. " Better? " She asked the women. Nozomi simply nodded her head her heart swelling with feelings she didn't want yet, but knew she couldn't fight. Shizu returned the smile and fought the urge to take the womens hand in her own. Seriously, I've only just met her and I'm starting to act like a love sick puppy. She wasn't too far off target. Sighing light enough not to alert the person who all the sudden she can't stop thinking about Shizu tentatively nursed upon her ' patient ' in silence until the silence became unbearable between the two.
" Sooooo," She tried to initiate a conversation with the alien women. " What's you're name?" Nozomi held a thoughtful expression which almost caused Shizu to coo at the women instead she bit her cheek to keep it withheld.
" I'm Nozomi," the saiyan women decided after a second to be honest, though the new feelings wouldn't have allowed her to lie anyway. " and yourself? " " Shizu, Nice to meet you Nozomi, though the way we met was a little unusual, hehe I mean not totally unusual I mean things fall from space all the time. I'm mean not always spaceships but like asteroids and comets and junk. Oh boy, now I'm rambling, this usually happens when I get nervous and then I just start spewing words out like right now, Gods above you must think I'm strange. Not that you're strange you're actually the complete opposite, now you're laughing at me thats the sign to shut up okay shutting up. " Shizu was mortified at the word vomit she had just created. It's never been that bad before with anyone. She only went on spews like that when she was nervous. Though the only person she's ever really talked to was her father.
" No it's not strange, " the brunette said giggling still, " It's quite cute really. " Shizu's face could not get anymore red at the women's words. She shoved her face into her hands and leant over the side of the bed mumbling something about her father. The older women watched her smiling and letting the woman regain from her word vomit so decided to ask of her location." Though I'm also quite curious though. Where am I? " Shizu looked up from behind her hands.
" Ummm…..we are on my farm" The teen said. " Located just south of North City and Located on Earth. Which is part of a solar system of eight planets. Which is located somewhere in the Milky Way Galaxy. Nozomi's eyes almost bulged out of her skull. Earth!...I flew all the way to EARTH! She looked at Shizu. The blonde reading her expression easily laughed whole heartedly at the alien female.
" Long way from home? "
" You haven't the foggiest clue…."
" So enlighten me. " Nozomi sighed and laid back on the bed. She really wanted to tell the women but what would she think of her past? She laughed internally at her stupidity. She only wants to know where I'm from not my life story…though maybe someday….She decided then to eat and tell her host the details later.
" How about we eat the food you brought me first? Then I will decide, Hows that sound? Shizu nodded and offered the large plate to the female. The meal was of decent size. It consisted of two eggs, three pieces toast, and a few slice of ham. Shizu looked at her companion with concern.
" I know that wound may make it hard for you to eat but I insist you…eat….it…where'd it all go!? " The teen picked up plate and examined the now empty plate. A large burp and a contented sigh brought her attention to the older female. " You ate it all that fast!? " The sayian chuckled softly as not to aggravate her still tender wound and nodded. Shizu's mouth dropped, It's probably a good thing I didn't see that then, she thought. She notices some crumbs on the corner of Nozomi's chin and grabbed the napkin that the older women never bothered to touch.
" Here," The blonde said, " Let me clean up your face. " She gently dabbed the crumbs away her hand lingering longer then either notice. They were both caught in each others eyes. Both blushed heavily and tore their eyes away from the other. Shizu fidgeted with the clothe nervously while Nozomi toyed with her tail absent mindedly a habit she picked up years ago.
" So ummm…." The saiyan started, " How was it I came here? "
Shizu sighed quite exasperatedly " It's a loooong story…" And so Shizu began the recounting of how she found the bomb-shell beauty in here bed.
