Hello guys! Here I am again! My sister and I tried to add up some drawings she's been working on along the chapters but it didn't work. Does anybody know if it's possible to add pictures to the stories? Well, anyway…Here we go:
CHAPTER 5:
Isabelle couldn't stop crying. She just couldn't accept Zeltron's death. She entered the bedroom soaking wet. Royce was by his bed, taking off his wet clothes. The sniper decided to do the same. She was having a hard time trying to see through the tears filling her eyes though. Still not a word from Royce. He was now only with his pants on. After a few more minutes of his silence and her sobs, the mercenary went up to Isabelle. She was only with her black tank top and pants on. Her hair was hanging loose, rainwater dripping from it. At first, Royce didn't know what to say, he wasn't particularly good at making people feel better but he decided to give it a try:
- He knew that was the only way… He chose to save us because he knew we can get the code…
Royce stepped closer to Isabelle. She was still crying but managed to say:
- I'm just tired…Tired of being here…tired of surviving. No matter what we do, they always seem to be a step ahead of us…
- A step ahead or not, we're gonna get that code, kill those bastards and get outta this rock.
Royce said now facing her completely. He gently wiped the tears from her eyes and stated:
- I promise.
Isabelle, for some reason, felt better at the sound of his words. She gave him a half smile. She wasn't crying anymore.
- Now, why don't you go take a shower? Last time that really cheered you up.
Royce suggested, trying to light her up.
- God! Do I look that bad?
Isabelle asked, smiling a bit.
- You look beautiful.
Royce finally said.
There was no other possible answer to her question. Royce couldn't have said anything else. Her eyes and nose were red from crying too much, her hair was all messed up from the rain, she wasn't wearing any make up at all and yet she looked beautiful. Even more beautiful than when she was wearing that yellow dress and Royce finally had the balls to say it. He didn't want to keep denying his feelings for her. He had feelings for her and he was pretty aware of them. This wasn't just a mere physical attraction anymore; this was something else, something bigger, deeper…Royce could finally come clean and tell Isabelle how he really felt, but, since he wasn't particularly good at expressing his emotions verbally, he decided to show her instead. He grabbed Isabelle by her waist, pulling her in and then kissed her like he had never kissed anybody before.
Isabelle closed her eyes. There couldn't have been a worse moment for him to do that: they were being hunted by alien monsters, the closet thing of a friend they had had just passed away and yet, nothing ever felt more right than that kiss. The sound of the rain silenced the voices in Isabelle's head. She couldn't hear anything anymore. She could only feel Royce's lips on hers and that was enough. Isabelle surrendered in his arms. The intensity of the kiss would increase by the second and they no longer could control their bodies. Royce's hands gently slid over her stomach, aiming for her pants' button. After a few seconds, Isabelle's wet pants were already on the floor. Her legs were now being warmed by Royce's body. That felt so good…His kisses were breathtaking and the last one nearly killed her. That would be a good way to die. As if he knew she was gasping for air, Royce removed his lips from hers for just a moment, allowing her to breathe. He wanted her so bad…Before kissing her again, Royce looked right into her eyes. He needed to be sure that was real. He needed to be sure she was his. Isabelle lost herself in those green eyes. No other man had ever looked at her quite like that before. She knew that was real. She was his.
They slowly walked to the sniper's bed. Gently, Royce laid her in it. After taking off his boots, he laid himself over her. That was the last time he would let her take a breath. Royce kissed Isabelle in the best way a man can kiss a woman.
…
They watched the whole scene like it meant nothing. For them, the two humans were just prey. The two remaining predators watched the whole scene from their ship like it meant nothing. They were about to go hunting again. After all, they had a score to settle.
Notes: I don't know…I think Royce and Isabelle shippers got happy with this one! Maybe the ending got a little obscure, but that was the idea. Things will make sense in upcoming chapters so stay tuned. Reviews please!
