I awoke to the sound of camp activity and the smell of something cooking. Rubbing the sleep out of my eyes I recognized the eggs of some type of bird being tended to by Rouge. Sting was nowhere in sight and neither were the two exceeds. Rouge must have noticed my search because he spoke up "they went to bathe before breakfast...once they are back you can go...its a small river". Smiling at the notion of a must needed wash I decided to use some of my recovering magic energy to summon virgo for some clothes. Standing I began "Gate of the Virgo open", stumbling a bit as she appears I realize perhaps it was to soon. Pushing that asside I speak "Virgo can you get me clothes and tell Loke I'm ok", she replied "yes..and punishment princess?". Rouges eyebrow shot up quickly and I stuttered out my response while bright red "just clothes please". As she left I sighed and adressed Rouge "each spirit has a unique personality" he nodded with small smile on his lips. After waiting about five minutes Virgo reappeared with a stack of clothing in her hands and a ponytail wrap. I thanked her quickly then closed the gate feeling the magic draining quickly. As the connection severed entirely I felt my limbs grow heavy and despite fighting the darkness closed in.

Movement...thats the first thing my body registered as I start to come to. I'm moving but I'm not doing it, reluctantly opening my eyes I see a chest right against my face. Blushing I take in the fact that the chest is exposed, toned and my head is resting agianst it. Wiggling I grab a look at the person's face and gasp when I see sting. He looks down right into my eyes and speaks "bout time you woke up fairy". I glare not liking his tone "put me down". He laughs and I can't help but admit that it's a nice sound. Lector pipes in loudly "Quiet fairy! Sting-kun doesnt want you slowing us down!" Looking around I realize we are in a new area and that it's about evening time, which means that if I passed out around breakfast time sting's been carrying me all day. Forgetting who he is for a minute I decided to be nice "Gomen sting but I really can walk now". He sighs then stops putting me down "we make camp here and tommarow you ride on my back the first half...until your strong enough to keep up". I nod knowing better then to argue with him.

Reaching the clearing takes ten minutes and by the time we reach im exhausted. Growling at my weaknesss I begin sitting up my bedding only stopping when Lector and Fro interrupt me "fro will show fairy where to bathe". I smile and grab my clothes eagerly following the two exceeds. What they lead me to is a small hot springs lined in rocks with a few large boulders dotting its edge. However in that spring I find sting, turning to complain to fro I find that both him and lector have scurried away back to camp. Glaring at sting I put venom in my voice "so your not going to get out?", he shakes his head no but otherwise ignores me. The rage boils inside me and the dark place whispers an idea and I go with it.

He wont ruin my first bath in forever so I step behind a large boulder and quickly undress. Sliding into the water while still behind the boulder I can't help but moan at the warmth and feel of the water against my skin. When at last the water covers me do I move from behind the boulder and onto a rock ledge to lean back against the rock ledge. Sting's voice interrupts my relaxation "not afraid I'll bit little fairy". I sigh "to exhausted to care sting-kun" enphasizing the kun I glare at him. He laughs then slowly stands and exposes his entire abdomen. Blushing I look away and try not to panic as I hear water moving. My breath hitches as I feel a finger on my neck, he drags it from my kneck to collarbone and back up each time pressing a bit harder. I can't help but bite my lip because it feels good. He leans in and places his lips nearly on my ear, his breathing ghosts over my neck and I shiver in response. He ghosts his nose down my neck and I moan ever so slightly. He puts his lips centimeters from my neck so they ever so slightly brush my neck as he speaks "you would enjoy my bite little fairy". I whine as the dark place feeds me ideas but thankfully he now pulls away and retreats to his side of the hot spring, getting out behind a boulder and heading back toward camp dressed. I'm left alone in the water bright red and wondering what being bit by Sting would be like.
