Chapter 9: Human
Date: 2529
Location: Leaving Ghibalb and Returning to UNSC's Infinity
John sat by Cortana's cot. She still had been sleeping. He had taken all his armour off and just sat there in his underclothes, messing with her face. It was so soft and smooth, and like a dream but real. As John moved his thumb once more up her face, she jumped awake and grabbed his arm.
"Where am I, why can I feel you, how am I speaking, what's happened to me," Cortana asked frantically.
"Cortana calm down," John said soothingly. "The Forerunners kinda turned you into a human, and I don't know exactly to answer those other questions." John said as he went back to stroking her face.
"You're so warm," John stated. " I can finally feel your warmth."
She shifted underneath the blankets.
" Thank you, I will take that as a compliment," she said as she covered herself. The being floated back, getting closer to them.
"Clothes ma'am," the being said as it handed her the clothes. John just stared.
"Turn around please," Cortana asked John as the being left.
John turned around but was still tempted.
He turned around as just as she pulled the shirt down over her waist.
She stood up and stumbled. She caught herself and sat down back on the bed. Her pants were super baggy as well as her shirt that went past her knees.
John leaned over and embraced her.
"Gosh, I thought I had lost you," John said into her ear.
"I love you John," she finally said.
"I love you too Cortana," John whispered back.
John passionately kissed her and she accepted all of them. Her lips were so kissable and John couldn't stop, until, they were interrupted.
"Sir, ma'am should you get going," the being asked them.
"I guess we should, don't you think Cortana," he leaned over and asked her.
"Yeah the whole crew of Infinity would wonder what we are up to," she said messing with her shirt. She seemed distracted by it.
John thanked the multiple beings, gathered up his things, and put his armor back on. John took Cortana's hand to help her stand up. Her legs would need to adjust to walking. They left the building as they called toward Infinity.
"John 117 to Infinity, do you read me," he asked by himself.
"Loud and clear sir," the operator confirmed.
"I'm ready to go home," Cortana said as she tugged at John's arm.
