Navi was standing in the shower, letting the warm water cascade over her body and relax her tense muscles. She's already washed her hair and was washing her body. Genesis himself had taken a shower while she cleaned the dishes and he told her he's take care of the sheets while she showered. She felt a little spoiled and couldn't help but enjoy it.

She stepped out when she was done and wrapped herself in a towel. That's when she realized her clothes were gone. Confusion was plastered on her face as her hair dripped water down her back and chest. She peaked out from the bathroom. "Gen?" No answer. "Gen?" Still no answer. "Genesis?" She walked out of the bathroom, holding her towel to her body.

"Gen?" Where could he have gone? Smirking, she realized he was teasing her. He'd purposely taken her clothes. Sneaky, sneaky, Genesis. Well, she was a sneaky, sneaky girl herself. Putting on her best submissive face, she feigned worry.

She knew what Genesis liked. He liked it when she gave into her fawn-like personality. She especially liked it when she called him "Genesis" and not "Gen." Oh, Niva knew his likes well.

In a voice that could be compared to a light, breathy moan, she spoke, "Genesis, where did you go?" She forced a blush to her face and was looking around with fake naivety.

When he still hadn't given in, she pouted childishly. "Gen! C'mon! That's not fair!" She went to his dresser and started looking through the drawers to find her clothes. When she was looking through his second to last drawer, arms wrapped around her waist.

"You tease," she said with another pout. "Taking my clothes and not coming out to play when I called you."

She felt him smirk against her bare skin. "I'm the tease, am I? How about you? Calling me with that voice." He reached into the drawer and pulled out her missing clothes. "There. Happy, my little fawn?"

"Indeed." She started putting them on once he released her waist. She wasn't embarrassed about him seeing anything. He'd already seen it before anyway.

"Not sleeping over?" he mused, eyeing her body from the bed.

"I haven't been in my apartment for a week. Don't worry." She smiled at him suggestively. "I won't be gone too long."

Genesis smiled a ghost of a smile and watched her gather her shoulder guards and the rest of her uniform. "I have a meeting with Lazard in the morning, so I expect you at the Training Room promptly before I arrive."

"That shouldn't be a problem. I'll be there bright an early." She gave him one last smile before leaving his apartment. She was only down the hall anyway, so it wasn't a big deal for her.

While walking, she started to think. About her "relationship" with her mentor. They weren't dating, but they were considerably, together. They weren't lovers, but they slept together. What would they call that relationship? He never held her after they slept together, and it was rare for him to kiss her lips. He never held her hand or took her out like "normal couples." but, they weren't normal, were they? A 2nd Class ANIMA SOLDIER and a 1st Class General.

Niva just shook her head. She always thought like that when she was apart from Genesis, but was love struck when he was around her. She was being silly. Genesis just showed his love differently. It was who he was and how he had always been.

"I just need some sleep," she muttered, pulling out her own keycard and entering her room. After pulling off her shoes, she walked over to her bed, set her alarm, and fell into a well deserved sleep.
