Thanks to RedJewel2662 for the nice review. And about Maria and Michael, you have to wait and read for yourself.
Chapter 45 The morning after
Maria opened her eyes after she noticed something brushed her leg. Confused she looked around and wondered for a moment how she made it to her room. Stunned her glance stopped at the window, where the sun was shining brightly through it. Holy Shit, how long had she been out and why did her head feel like there was a rock concert in it? Slowly she massaged her temples with her fingers to ease the pain a little and suddenly her memory from last night came back to her. Quickly she turned to her right side and saw Michael´s peaceful sleeping face. After that she lifted the blanket a bit and like she expected, they both were naked. Shocked she faced her bedmate again and reality crashed down. They had done it? They had really done it, more than once actually. And it had been unbelievable. A smile broke out on her face, when she thought about the things they had done to each other. They had started slow like he wanted. The first time was gentle and tender. But then it went wild and they both acted out their deepest fantasies. Oh boy and how wild that had been. No wonder that she felt like a walking bruise right now. Michael was like an animal in the sack and she hadn´t been scared. On the contrary she gave it back all the same. Carefully she snuggled closer to him and examined his face. He was looking like a little boy when he slept. The mean expression he usually wore was gone and replaced with this serenity. Gently she stretched her arm out and caressed his cheek with her thumb.
Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
I'm closer to
where I started
Chasing after you
I'm falling even more in
love with you
Letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing
here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
Forgetting all I'm lacking
Completely incomplete
I'll take
your invitation
You take all of me now
She couldn´t believe that a few weeks ago she wanted to throw what they had away and pretend the passion from their past lifes had been nonexistent. Now she was glad that she didn´t went through with her plan to avoid Michae like the pest, because then she would have missed all the fun and how it was to give yourself to someone that loved you as much as you loved him. Yes, she could admit that she fell in love with him all over again and that wasn´t the remaining alcohol in her system talking. At least she could admit it to herself that she loved the big carebear besides her.
I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've
held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm
hanging by a moment here with you
I'm living for the only thing I
know
I'm running and not quite sure where to go
And I don't
know what I'm diving into
Just hanging by a moment here with you
There's nothing else to lose
There's nothing else to find
There's nothing in the world
That can change my mind
There
is nothing else
There is nothing else
There is nothing else
Maria noticed the slight stubbles under her fingertips and it brought a memory from another time at another place. She was thrown back to her first time with Rath on Antar, how she had felt when she woke up to see him watching her with a smile on his face. In that moment she had been so unbelievable happy that she thought she would burst every second. She wanted to scream her feelings from the highest mountains, so that everybody on the planet would know it. Now the feeling was even stronger, because they had no obligations, Michael wasn´t betrothed to another woman and she wasn´t scarred from the death of her mother. This time they were just two college students, who fell in love with each other.

Michael moved his head a bit and Maria realized he would be waking up every minute. Quickly she went back to her earlier position and closed her eyes. She didn´t want him to think she had been staring at him while he was sleeping, even if that was the truth. There should be still a few mysteries in a relationship after all. She picked up the exact moment when he came around, because the mattress moved under her. She could imagine the confused expression on his face when he looked around her room and tried to remember where he was right now. She had to keep her smile off of her face as she felt him touching her cheek. He was doing the same thing she did when she woke up. Maybe he came to the same conclusion that everything that happened last night wasn´t a dream, too.
" Maria? Are you awake?".
Great. They spent the night full of passion together and that was the way he woke her? Just nudging her and asking if she was awake? For that she would punish him, Maria style. " Just five more minutes, mom", she swatted his hand away and half mumbled into her pillow.
Michael scratched his eyebrow. Now he had been called many names, but no one ever called him mom. Oh boy, she was even harder to wake up than him and he didn´t know that this was possible. " I´m not your mom. It´s me Michael".
" Michael?", she slowly opened her eyes and looked at him still a little sleepy. Suddenly she jumped up with her torso and gripped the blanket tight around her. " Michael! What are you doing in my bed?".
Startled Michael eyed the way she was looking at him. It was like he had taken advantage of her without her consent. A little worried he tried to calm her. " Don´t you remember last night?".
Maria stared at him confused. She had to bite the inside of her cheek to keep from laughing at him. He was so cute. " What happened? How did I get into my bed? And more important how did you get in?".
" Uhh, how much can you still remember from last night?", oh shit, hopefully her brain wasn´t function yet and she still knew what they did, it just slipped her mind at the moment. Hopefully he hadn´t done something wrong when he believed that she was sobber enough to know what she was doing.
Maria acted like she was trying to think about it. In reality she was mulling over the fact if she had to go to the laundry room to wash her clothes or if she could wait until next week to do it. " I was thirsty. My drink was empty and the barkeeper had disappeared, so I took a sip from Kyle´s cup. After that everything is blank".
Michael´s hope made a crash landing, right into hell. He promised himself to never sleep with a drunk girl again. He made this experience already and it didn´t go too well. Thankfully he was rich and his grandfather employed the most expensive and greatest lawyers of the united states or it could have been bad for him. " You tricked me into your room and then you seduced me out of my clothes".
" You make it sound like it was a bad thing. And I didn´t hear you complain last night", Maria shook her head at him. As if everything was her fault. Alright, she started the whole thing, but he didn´t do anything to stop her, which meant he wanted it as much as her.
Michael finally noticed the slight smile pulling at the corner of Marias mouth and the damn twinkling in her eyes. Quickly reality dawned on him. Outraged he attacked her with his fingers, which were tickling every part of her body. " You little witch!".
Maria tried to get away from him and his moving fingers. But he was faster and stronger. Laughing loudly she wriggled under him and made an attempt to grasp his hands to stop his assault on her most ticklish spots. " Stop it! Get your hands off of me! NO, not there!".
" Say I´m the best lover you ever had and I´ll stop instantly", Michael paused temporary with tickling her and pressed her hands down on the mattress beneath her head. His face was almost in front of hers and their lips were just millimeter away from meeting each other.
Maria looked deeply into his eyes and she saw something in there, that she always missed with Billy. He loved her, at least that was what he told her sometimes. But his eyes held never such a devotion like she just witnessed with Michael. His glance told her everything she needed to know. He even knew already that he was the best in her look. But she didn´t want to stroke his ego more. He was cocky enough as it was. " My mother told me I´m not allowed to lie and if I didn´t have anything nice to say, I should keep my mouth shut".
Michael immediately continued with his punishment and he pounced on her again. This time he changed his tactic and he slid slowly down her body until his head disappeared under the blanket. Teasingly he stopped at her hot spot, where he could already smell her lust anew and softly blow some air on it. Judging after the loud intake of breath, he had her exactly at the point where he wanted her. Instantly he crawled a little higher and shoved the cover over his head. " So. You were saying?"
Maria didn´t know if she should be annoyed with him, because he made her hot and then just stopped or if she should laugh, because he looked just too funny with his hair tousled from sleep and the blanket. Quickly she decided for the latter and smirked at him. " You´re not playing fair".
" And? I´m just giving back what you did to me with your constant teasing of my already hormone driven body all those weeks. I was afraid that I would either freeze my balls off with the cold showers or my hand would develope scarf skin from the many use", Michael had intended to get even with her and now he was in the position to do it. And he would enjoy every minute of it.
Maria started to pout at him. Was it her fault that he had no control over his lower region? She had no idea how hard she had made him just only by being near him. She didn´t treat him any different than Alex or even Kyle and they never bitched at her for arousing them. Well of course not, Kyle was her brother and Alex was like another brother. " You´re sounding like I would have done that on purpose. I didn´t know that I made you so uncomfortable in my presence".
Michael knew that. It wasn´t even her fault. She was very much in the dark about the way other people, especially boys, were regarding her. She never noticed the following glances when she stepped into a room or the sniffing when she passed by or even the hunger in some eyes that were mentally stripping her off of her clothes when she walked, her hips swaying from side to side and her butt bouncing slightly with her steps. He often wondered what was going through most of those heads, but he was usually thankful that he didn´t know it, because then his jealousy would appear and in that condition he could be unpredictable. " Don´t try to lie. I know exactly what you had in mind. You wanted to drive me into madness with your torture".
" Fine, you caught me. What are you gonna do about that now?",
The treacherous twinkle in his eyes and the poking of a certain part of his body told her very much everything. Just as Michael was in the process to disappear under the blanket to get the party started again, there was a knock at the door. Grumpily he threw a mean glare at the offending noise, but didn´t let himself keep away from the task at hand. Maria in the meantime had lost all her passion she still had a few moment ago.
" Maybe we should open the door?".
Michael looked into her eyes. They were back to her lighter green, all traces of her hunger was gone from them. The only thing he could see in them now was slight worry. " Don´t get distracted. Everybody outside will lose interest and go away soon".
Maria wasn´t so sure about that. Maybe it was Tess, who wanted back into her room to get something. Or it could be Liz, eager to tell her everything that happened last night with Max. It couldn´t even be ruled out the possibility that it was Kyle looking after her. " And if not?".
Michael groaned loudly from disappointment. Now he lost all interest in morning activity, too. Great, he had to remember to thank whoever was standing in front of the door. A tad bit pissed he crawled down from Maria and let himself slump besides her. Stubbornly he crossed his arms over his naked chest and stared straight ahead, while he tried to cool down.
" Don´t be mad. I will make it up to you tonight. I promise", slowly she took his face in her hands and gave him a tender kiss. Not too long and not too intense. She hadn´t brushed her teeth yet and she didn´t want to scare him away, because she had bad breath.
Before Michael could say something, another knock was heard at the door. This time it was louder and more persistent. Followed from two quiet voices, obviously discussing what to do. The female won the fight. " Maria? Michael? Are you both awake? Can we come in?".
Maria had to keep her laughter in when she saw Michael´s expression at the sound of his sisters voice behind the door. Thankfully he didn´t have the power to kill someone with his glance, because then Tess and apparently Kyle would have been dead be now. Giggling slightly she threw the blanket aside and stood up.
" What are you doing?", Michael hissed quietly while watched how her body arose in a standing position. Now he could finally see her in all her naked glory. The way her flat stomach rose and fell with every breath she took, her small breasts bobbed with her movements and her golden hair that seemed to be dancing on her back.
Maria glared at him playfully. What did it look like she was doing? Obviously it wasn´t acting like they weren´t there. Grinning evily at him she turned around and walked to her dresser. There she snatched a black pantie and a big footballshirt she stole from her brother years ago. Quickly she put the clothes on and made her way to the door, much to the disbelieving glances of her lover still lying under the cover in her bed. With a deep breath she opened door and smiled at the visitors, all the while trying to appear like she slept alone last night, although her friends knew about her new roommate already. " Hey guys".
Tess smirked knowlingly at her friend and her eyes were sparkling happily. A slight pink blush was gracing her cheeks and she was emitting a pretty strange glow. " Hey girlie".
" Why did it take you so long to open the door? Did we interrupt something?", Kyle was pretty conspicuously trying to look over his sisters shoulder. Alright, he knew that she was sexual active and he had prove for that now. But still a part of him wanted to forget last night and be in the dark about Marias sex life again.
Tess elbowed her boyfriend immediatly. After she heard a satisfying ouch she paid attention to her roommate once more. She wasn´t here to snoop, but to get some of her clothes. All she had last night was her costume and now she wanted something not made of leather, which would burn her in the blazing sun. " Can I come in for a minute? I just want to fetch a few clothes and then I´ll be gone and you continue whatever you were doing".
Maria finally stepped aside to let her roommate in, while keeping an eye on her brother. He looked at her like he realized that she wasn´t his little sister anymore. Something told her that he saw something he wanted to erase from his memory. Slowly it dawn on her what it could be" You saw us".
" Not exactly. I mostly heard you and it was enough for me", Kyle felt uncomfortable discussing his discovery with her. Besides he was trying to push the picture in the back of his mind and lock it there for all eternity.
Maria sensed the heat rising in her cheeks and she was breaking the eye contact with her brother. Oh god! She could never look at him again without imagine what he was thinking when he glanced at her. Holy Moly, to top of it all she did it with his roommate. Poor Michael, he had to go back to his room sometime soon and after Kyle´s expression it wouldn´t be pleasant for him. " I don´t know what to say besides I´m really embarrassed".
Kyle smiled at her. He was glad that he wasn´t the only one who felt that way. But he had to admit if his sisters wanted to have sex, he was happy that it was Michael and not some punk, who would hurt her in the end. " Let´s forget what happened all right? I didn´t see anything, except the moving blanket. And I want to leave it at that".
" Okay", Maria was relieved about the outcome. She could live with that and her happy mood came back again. Slowly she turned around to see what her roommate was doing so long. Surprised she watched her talking to her brother. She was giving him a backpack, which Maria hadn´t noticed. Then she gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, stood up and took a bag with her clothes. Grinning like an idiot she made her way back to her boyfriends side.
" So we´ll leave you two lovebirds alone again. Kyle and I have plans. We´ll see each other tonight then".
Before she however could turn around and go, Isabel and Max were fast coming in their direction. They seemed to be obviously in a hurry and judging after their confused faces it wasn´t something nice. But what was new. Immediately Maria shoot a look at Michael, who quickly jumped to his feets, the blanket tightly wrapped around his hips and stepped besides her. Slightly out of breath the siblings stopped in front of their friends. Max was the first to recover. " Nolak wants to see us immediately".
Tess turned to her brother and her roommate. They were the only ones who had the most contact with Nolak and they would have the slightest clue what was going on. But they both seemed to be in the dark about it, too. Curious she faced Isabel again. " Why?".
" He didn´t say. He just said and I quote literally", Isabel made quotation marks with her finger, " Get the others and bring their lazy asses in the gym asap".
Kyle watched the faces around him. Something was happening and he had a feeling that it wasn´t exactly anything good. " That means I´m seeing what Liz and Alex want to do today".
Tess eyed her boyfriend and saw the disappointment in his face. She couldn´t blame him. She had been looking forward to do something with him and now it was appearing that they could forget it. Carefully she squeezed his hand, which was holding hers tightly. " You can bring me to the gym if you want. Maria and Michael are looking like they would need a little time to dress more properly".
Finally Isabel and Max noticed the state of undress of the other two. Michael was holding a white blanket around his hips and Maria was just wearing a big shirt. Instantly they realized what happened the last night and what they could have disturbed right now. Max cleared his throat a little uncomfortable " All right. I think we´ll be waiting at the gym for you".
His sister nodded eagerly before she hurriedly walked down the floor closely followed by Max and lastly Kyle and Tess. Maria couldn´t hold back her chuckle any longer after she saw them all disappearing so fast.
" Why are you laughing?", Michael was still trying to find a reason for a meeting with Nolak, while he tied the end of the blanket together so that he didn´t need to hold it anymore. Obviously Maria had something other in mind or else she wouldn´t have a reason to laugh.
Maria closed the door and turned to him. No wonder Isabel´s cheeks had graced a slight blush and Max was avoiding eye contact. Michael was living proof what occured here in this room last night. Slowly she stepped closer to him and stroked his chest. " Because all of our friends know that we had sex and I think your attire made a few of them uncomfortable".
Michael watched the path Marias hand was making on his naked flesh. So the others knew about them? He didn´t mind about that. They had something against his half naked state? That was their problem. They should have called and not just barged into this room. " And? Does it matter? ".
" Actually yes. Because one of them is my brother and he wasn´t to keen on the fact that his little sister isn´t as innocent as he thought", Maria still saw Kyle´s expression in her minds eye. He was torn between pummeling Michael for touching her or holding her prisoner until she was too old to have sex anymore.
Michael put his arms around her and pulled her deeper at his body. She was exaggerating big time. Kyle knew she wasn´t so innocent anymore and he accepted it as long as he didn´t think too much about it. But now he had visual proof and that was an entire different story. Michael was exactly the same way. He had seen the glowing on his sister and he immediately realized that he wasn´t the only one who got lucky. But he hadn´t said anything, because as long as he didn´t witness Tess and Kyle having sex, he could still picture that she was still untouched. It was a strange logic from a brother and no other would understand it. " You and innocent? That´s a conflict in itself".
Maria looked up from her spot on his chest. She pretended to glare at him and if he wouldn´t have trapped her arms at her side, she would have already put her hand on her hips. " Are you calling me a slut?".
" NO! Of course not! I wasn´t even thinking that", Michael felt sweat forming on his forehead. Nervously he wanted to brush one of his hand through his hair, but unfortunately both of them were occupied with holding Marias arms prisoner. He wanted to avoid getting hit or worse castrated. Dammit! No matter what he would say now, he would dig his hole even deeper. " I think we should get dressed. We don´t want to anger Nolak more".
Maria raised her eyebrow. She would love to get dressed, but she couldn´t, because Michael kept her trapt in his embrace. " Then I suggest you release me so that I can do that, commander".
Michael pulled his arms carefully back from her and his glance didn´t waver from her arms, in case she would start hitting him with her tiny fists. He knew her from both lives and she was more dangerous than she appeared. Besides he made an acquaintance with her dark side and he wanted to avoid doing that again. Slowly he stepped back from her, always keeping her in his sight. He almost tripped over his backpack and fell on the bed. Thankfully he could prevent himself from making him look like an idiot. Meanwhile Maria watched him with a touch of amusement. She didn´t know that she made him so terrified of her. Poor littler her. She wasn´t so mean like she appeared. In realitly she was just a little teddybear, looking for someone who would cherish her. Ok, she had to admit sometimes she could be a snake, splashing her poison around and attacking everybody. But those slips were few and wide apart. And she had an excuse for them. She could always blame it on pmsing. An advantage for being a girl. Five days a month you can be bitchy, depressive or both and nobody holds you responsible for that.
" Why don´t you stop staring at me like I will attack you any minute and put clothes on already", she had to busy herself with something or she would start laughing. Hence she went to her closet and looked for her something to wear. She settled for some white capri pants, a black t-shirt and her favourite sneaker. Slowly she put the clothes on and listened to the sound behind her.
Michael had finally managed to dress himself, although it had been difficult. It seemed like Tess confused some of his t-shirts with those of Kyles. And his roommate was a little smaller than him and didn´t have such broad shoulders. What lead to the fact, that the shirt he was wearing stopped at his belly button and almost burst at the seams when he moved. " I think there was a mix up".
Maria turned around at that. " Why?", but then she saw the shirt covering only half of Michaels torso. Immediately she broke out in laughter. She tried to hide it behind her hands, but she was just too loud and her whole body shook from it. He was looking ridiculous in his outfit. The jeans was perfect, defenitively one of his own. But the white T-shirt was too tight, too small and let his arms stand up from his body.
" Yeah. Now you can laugh! I don´t find that funny. I feel like a head cheese in this thing".
By now Maria couldn´t hold herself upright anymore. Her stomach was hurting badly from all the laughing and she was sure that she would have sore muscles tomorrow. It wasn´t just the shirt anymore, it was the expression on Michaels face that was more funny. A picture from Rath in the same situation popped into her mind and his expression was exactly like Michaels. " Maybe you gained some weight?".
Michael glared hateful at her. She had too much fun with him right now and he didn´t like it. She was almost sitting on the ground and was holding her stomach with her right hand. Tears were streaming down her cheeks and her head seemed like it would explode any minute. " Are you through soon or should I tell Nolak that you´re not able to attend to his meeting, because you were bitten by a laugh bug?".
" You´re no fun, do you know that?", Maria breathed deeply in and out to get rid of her hysteric laughter. Then she wiped the tears from her eyes, before she fixed her clothes and straitend them again. Suddenly she caught sight of her hair in the mirror on the dresser besides her. Shocked she noticed that it looked like a nest was sitting on her head. " Why didn´t you tell me that my hairstyle looked like the blow dryer exploded!".
Now it was Michaels turn to laugh. Payback was a bitch and he enjoyed it. " I didn´t notice it actually".
Maria turned to him and threw him one of her meanest glare. How could he not see that? Was he fing blind, or what? Quickly she tried to unravel the knots in her hair with her fingers. But it were just to many and she was too upset. " I´m going to the washroom", out of the corner of her eyes she saw her toilet bag and she took it with her, because if she already was doing her hair she could brush her teeth, too.
" We don´t have time for that!", Michael screamed after her. But then he looked in the mirror on Tess dresser and realized that his hair was everywhere, just not where they were supposed to be. Without saying anything he snatched his backpack and followed Maria.
The gym
Nolak was standing in the middle of the gym with his arms crossed over his chest and a angry expression on his face. His right foot was tapping on the floor in a hypnotic rhythm and it seemed to echo through the whole room. Isabel, Max and Tess had made themself comfortable on a few mats laying around. The gym wasn´t that big and there wasn´t much in it, except for rings at the ceiling, wall bars, a door which was leading to the equipment room and one side of the room had two big windows. But other than that it was pretty bare.
" What is taking them so long?", Nolak was almost at the end of his patience. He eyed his watch for the hundreth time already and watched the time ticking away. Damn he had still other plans tonight and he didn´t have the time to waste for his fosterlings to appear.
Tess, Isabel and Max turned to each other with a knowing smile. Maybe they were doing the nasty again. It had been obvios that they had interrupted something with those two and after their experience with their past lifes it was a no brainer what would happen the moment they were left alone.
Suddenly the door to the gym flew open and the last guest were finally making an appearance. They were both smiling innocently at Nolak while trying to act normal. Maria even had a slight redness around her cheeks. " Sorry for coming so late. We had some problems with the washroom".
" The washroom?", Nolak watched them both with a raised eyebrow. Now he expected some excuses, but that was new, even to him and he was after all a professor at his university on this campus for over 10 years. He already heard the strangest things, but he reminded himself to keep that in mind for the future. Then he realized that Maria said " we" as in her and Michael. What was he doing in the girls building? On second thought he didn´t want to know it acutally.
Michael planted his butt next to his sister while he tried to keep his sniggering to a minimum. Yeah the washroom incident will be forever stuck in his mind. At first when they stepped foot in it, a few girls began to scream as soon as they noticed him, because they just came out of the shower. After that he waited outside the door until Maria gave him the sign that he could enter again. Then they brushed their teeth side by side, whereas they made funny faces with a mouthful of foam. Just as they managed to fix their hairstyles, Michael remembered his dilemma with his t-shirt that was two sizes too small for his frame. Maria had rolled her eyes at him, but promised to help. Slowly she had placed her hands on the hem to let it grew wider and longer. While she was busy with making his t-shirt bigger, Michael watched in the mirror. The way Maria stood in front of him looked like she was doing nasty things to him. Instantly he noticed his jeans getting a little crowded. Without knowing what he was doing he grasped her and pushed her hard against the sink behind her and kissed her forcefully. At this point the details got a little fuzzy and he just remembered that somebody came through the door and they left the washroom pretty embarrassed. " Yeah. It was pretty full of naked girls and we had to wait until I could enter".
Nolak shook his head at him. Hopefully that was the only information he would get. He didn´t need to know more. It was one things to assume the sexual life of someone, but he didn´t want proof for that. " All right. Now that we´re all here now, I can tell you the reason for this meeting". He watched the faces around him and was pleased that he had the attention of all. " Larek and I have finally decided to start with the training. We thought we gave you enough time to adjust to your new situation and that it was time".
Immediately Michael and Maria, who were sitting side by side now, happily high fived each other, while Isabel and Tess made sour faces. Max glanced out the window and noticed three people standing outside. Kyle was pressing his face at the glass plate and his nostrils were visible. Alex was making rabbit ears behind his friend and Liz was waving her hands like a lunatic through the air. Max tried to hide his laughter behind a cough, but the others had already discovered their audience and were smiling at the antics of their friends. Through the increasing noise level Nolak turned to the window and eyed the humans with a bored expression. Then he sighed before he gave them a sign that they should come inside.
" What are you doing?", Maria was slightly surprised about this reaction. She had expected that he would explode or send them away or do something more drastic. Maybe he was getting soft in his old days?
Nolak faced her stunned. " What does it look like? I´m inviting your friends to join us".
Michael seemed to be as equally baffled about their protector as Maria. What the hell was going on inside his head? " Why?".
" Because they can be helpful, too. Even if they don´t posessed the power like you, I learned that humans have the same will to survive like our people", Nolak had watched enough videos about human warriors, wars and something called boot camps. It was still a mystery to him how someone without the extra strength of powers, could confront an army without even a little bit fear showing on his face.
Maria jumped to her feets after the sentence was finished. No, she was against this idea. They were defenceless towards aliens and she didn´t want something to happen to them. Not as long as she was still alive and breathing at least. " Great. You mean they´re bait".
Nolak wondered for the umpteenth time why Larek couldn´t have taken the training and he would have just watched over it. No, his companion was probably too busy with sitting his ass flat to get himself down here to help him. " I didn´t say that. And I would appreciate if you wouldn´t read everything wrong. I´m trully under the impression they can help us".
Before Maria could open her mouth to retort something to that, Michael quickly distracted her with a kiss. In the exact moment the others finally came through the door and stopped directly at the entrance.
" What´s up?", Kyle was clueless to why they were here. Usually the aliens made everything so damn among them, that nobody outside their species was allowed to join. And now they were standing in the middle of the gym.
Nolak turned to the humans and eyed them. He was sizing them up. Marias brother seemed to be athletic and used to train with weight. Also his height should made him pretty fast on his feets. Contrary to the other boy. He was looking like he would break under too much weight or even just a blast of air. But he could change that. The girl was not exactly to place. She appeared like she couldn´t hurt a fly, but looks could be deceiving. He learned that when he met Marianna. However he could shape them into something more, if they let him. " Do you want to join the alien squad training?".
