Authors note - I am finding this rather hard now due to restrictions on the site etc I can't really write this chapter how I had it planned due to censorship and stuff, Im still a bit worried that what I have wrote might be a bit too much but I will say now this one gets a bit suggestive and a little bit x-ratedl. Mmmmm I just love it! :D
Paige led Rimmer round the ship, she didn't even know where she was heading she just wanted him to herself, they had been chatting away and holding hands for over an hour now. After everything she had been through recently she just wanted to feel like a normal girl with a normal guy. It didn't help when she hit reality and accepted she was in space, alone and was dating a man that had been dead for three million years.
"What are you looking at me like that for?"
"No reason" Paige laughed, "It is just really good to see you again that's all."
Rimmer smiled satisfied with the answer and continued walking, "So how do you feel now? After all of this I mean."
"Its all a bit mad" Paige sighed, "I cant really talk about what it was like to lose you, I don't even think I do want to think about losing you again because …"
"It isn't going to happen again Paige" Rimmer stopped her and hugged her, "I have a reason to save myself now don't I? I won't do this to you ever again."
"Do you know how weird it is to date a guy that saves himself" Paige caught the look on Rimmer's face and instantly regretted what she said. "Sorry" she fell over her words, "I didn't mean to …."
"No its okay" Rimmer sighed, "Look I know this isn't a normal relationship, I mean in under a month we have both died and lived in cramped conditions and had to deal with all this rubbish. If I could date you like you deserve, if I could take you to a restaurant and show you off and book a hotel and take you for walks and drives. If I could make you the happiest woman alive, I would do it in an instant"
"Rimmer, I am the happiest woman alive and I know I can say that because I am the last woman alive" Paige mulled over her death and the inability to breathe and wondered if she could get away with saying she was alive, "I think. Yeah I will go with that, and I have an idea, we could go for a real life date – we still have Better than Life"
Rimmer smiled at her thinking face and rubbed her back, Paige felt him pushing her backwards and the cold wall press against her back as his warm lips touched hers. It was their first proper kiss since he had been switched back on and Rimmer was making it one to remember, with one arm he supported her and lifted her gently into his arms, Paige made happy murmurs as she kissed him back with just as much gusto, running her fingers through his hair and stroking his neck. Rimmer pulled back from the kiss, suddenly remembering what he had been unable to say earlier.
"I love you Paige."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Holly waited until the couple had strapped themselves in and switched on Better than Life – he turned the monitors off outside the AR suite so no one else could watch what they were doing, if their constant kissing and groping in the corridors had anything to do with it, Holly had a feeling this would be a very X rated game.
Paige opened her eyes and found Rimmer beside her, they were stood in the middle of a hotel lobby, Paige felt ashamed immediately of her dirty trousers and vest top all the people around her were in beautiful long dresses with curled hair, Rimmer blinked and stared around at all the officers and men in tuxedos.
"Do you think we are under dressed?" he asked Paige out the side of his mouth. Paige laughed and slipped her hand through his, she pulled him away from the lobby and out of the hotel.
"What do you want to do?" she asked Rimmer.
"I don't know, I haven't played this game for years. I can't remember how to work it – I am assuming if I think of something I want it happens right?"
Paige nodded and jumped with shock as her surroundings changed, "I've never played this with anyone else before" she laughed, "I got a shock when things I didn't think of actually just changed" Paige looked around to see themselves in a hot beach, the water was a clear blue and the sun felt good on her body. Body? Looking down quickly she found herself in a small blue bikini.
"Rimmer!" she squeaked dropping to the floor and pulling her knees up to cover her body, she suddenly felt very naked, she looked up to find him laughing in a shorts and t-shirt. "Oh no you don't" she thought and laughed at his face when he realised he was suddenly in swimming trunks.
"Just be thankful I wasn't thinking of a topless beach" he winked pulling her to her feet, "What are you hiding anyway? A) this is the first time I have seen your body and I think I should be allowed to see it and B) there is no one else on this beach!"
Paige looked up and down the beach and found his words to be true, she smiled as he pulled her close and shivered as she felt her flesh touch him, he was running his hands up and down her back, feeling each curve and tracing around her hips. Paige felt a little shy with them both being lone and practically naked but realised she only felt nervous because she was worried he wouldn't like her body, not because she was worried about being with him. Reaching out she ran her hands along his surprisingly toned chest and smiled, "Okay" she nodded; and imagined some palm trees to shelter them from the sun, one large lounger and two drinks.
"I like your work" Rimmer winked and then he turned to look at the sea and grabbed her, lifting her in his arms he ran towards the water laughing as Paige screamed and tried to escape. "Not a chance love" he laughed, "The water is warm anyway" he walked up to his waist and held her just above water. "Now repeat after me, I love Arnold J Rimmer"
"Arnold Judas Rimmer I swear to god…"
"Sorry – god is busy" Rimmer laughed cruelly and dropped her into the water, he laughed even hardly as she stood up with dripping wet hair and glared at him, she flung her wet hair out of her face and pulled him close draping her arms around her neck she spoke, "Arnold J Rimmer, I fucking love you to absolute pieces" she leant in and kissed him between each word. "However I think you are forgetting something" Paige laughed, "I am a lot stronger than you" she shoved him as hard as she could and screamed in frustration when he fell backwards slowly. "Where has my strength gone? You should be about a mile away!"
"I just wished it away" Rimmer laughed standing back up, "You are just a normal lass with a normal lad in here girlie" Rimmer smiled as she ran her hands over his wet chest, walking in deeper into the sea she jumped up on his hips and wrapped her legs round his middle. They stood kissing and talking in the warm water until the sun began to set, the sky glowed beautiful oranges and pinks as they swum around and chased each other.
Rimmer jumped in shock when a pod of killer whales swam past, "Fuck, I didn't expect that" he laughed as Paige reached out to run her hands along one of them. He watched her cautiously playing with them not feeling entirely comfortable at the size of them, a baby orca nuzzled him slightly and even that made him nervous, he was relieved when Paige swam back to him, "Wasn't that amazing? I always loved whales. Whales, dolphins, sharks anything that lives in the sea really"
"Did you just say sharks? Bugger this" Rimmer gripped her tight and waded as fast as he could out of the water holding a laughing Paige tightly round his waist.
"I didn't want one in the sea with us! That would be stupid, why would I want one?" Paige laughed with her arms around his neck, she stared out to the sea and saw her whales leaving, to her alarm she swore she saw a sharks fin swimming in circled them vanish under the waves. "Rimmer!" she cried pointing at it.
"I can't help it, do not give my mind a reason to ruin this" he laughed now that they were on dry land, "Come on lets have those drinks" she laid her down upon the lounger and climbed up beside her.
"Mmmm" Paige hummed, "How nice is it just lying in the sun like this?"
"Holly said you had been coming here a lot recently"
"Yeah." Paige played with his chest hair as she lay with him, "I found you here. Well it wasn't you, but it was more you than the other one. I used to come here to lie with you." Paige yawned, "I prefer lying here with the real you. I could lie here forever"
Rimmer hugged her close to his wet body and closed his eyes, the sun felt warm and good upon their bodies within minutes he felt Paige going limp as she fell asleep curled round him. He stared up at the sky with a smile, seeing a blue sky was a novelty after living in space for so long, with one quick request from his brain he soon had some clouds to look for shapes among, he felt Paige stir and try to pull him closer, he turned on his side so that she could hold him directly beside her. Lying there he leant forward and kissed her, he was still amazed at how beautiful and soft her skin was and couldn't help himself running his hand down her torso, he felt butterflies and excitement building up inside him as he looked upon her.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Paige reached out and felt warm soft material, opening one eye gently she stared about confused in her sleep addled mind. "Rimmer?" she called out. Opening both eyes she looked around and remembered they were in the game, she didn't remember leaving the beach though. Now she was curled up in a big four poster double bed, the pillows felt like heaven, she was aware of the shower going and saw steam coming from the bathroom, jumping up out of the bed she stared down at a sexy black negligee she was currently wearing, "Rimmer" she scolded quietly, with a laugh she opened the bathroom door slightly and peered in.
"Thank god for glass showers" she privately thought watching water trickle down his back in rivulets, she blinked with pleasant shock as she stared at him washing his body with his back to her, "I'm not a pervert, I am not a pervert" she repeated to herself, but she couldn't keep her eyes off his toned wet body, and found herself biting her lip looking at his little peach bum. When she looked back up her eyes met his suddenly and she squeaked and jumped back praying he hadn't seen her. Paige peeked back and saw him stood leaning against the shower with an eyebrow raised.
"Can I help you?" he asked, Paige gulped and tried her hardest to keep her eyes on his face, and she stepped into the bathroom and walked towards him.
"No, I was just wondering where you were and what you were doing" she smiled sweetly and stopped in front if him, her whole body was urging her to look down and she was finding it hard to fight.
"Nothing else?" he smiled, "I mean you weren't watching me shower or anything?"
"No no no." Paige shook her head, "Not like that." He looked at the door behind her and she took her chance to stare down at one particular part of his naked body, when Rimmer turned back her eyes were wide open and she couldn't stop smiling. Paige felt herself blushing but she didn't care, reaching forwards she pushed him backwards into the shower and kissed him. Rimmer half slipped to hold her and let out a growl as he felt her pushing against a part of him that until recently only himself or plastic has touched. Neither of them were sure whose mind flicked the shower back on but within minutes Paige's negligee was soaked and thrown out of the shower, after a playful hour of touching, washing and getting to know each others bodies one of them wished them into the bed together. Rimmer began to panic and stopped, "What's wrong?" Paige asked stroking his body.
"Nothing" he shook his head and continued kissing her, his mind was screaming. There was no way in hell he would be any good at this. One time he had done this and even then he lad lain there with little or no communication whiles Ivonne McGruder had her way with him for a bet. Rimmer shook his head again and tried to forget the past, he smiled down at her and looked over her naked body. I can do this - just relax he told himself, it wouldn't be like the other time because he loved this girl and they could explore and relax. Taking a deep breath he tried to take some control of the situation and lie over her slightly, still kissing her gently he felt himself shaking with nerves. Damn body don't let me down now, he cursed, stop shaking, there isn't anything to fear dammit.
Paige lay watching him internally fight with himself, she wasn't sure if he was aware just how obviously his face told the world what he was thinking. "Rimmer?" she spoke softly, "Please relax" she sat up slightly and kissed him, Rimmer closed his eyes in frustration and hugged her tightly to him, they lay back down and remained still just hugging for a few more minutes, he couldn't believe he had blown it, he didn't know what else to do he just couldn't relax, he was so sure he would hurt her, or mess it up and she would hate him.
"Why don't we go have some dinner and a drink?" Paige asked, "We can just chill and relax a bit then come back"
Rimmer rolled his eyes, he could see she meant well but it felt like she was compensating for his failure. Turning back to face her he smiled again and kissed her, pushing her back into the pillow he slowed down and kissed her neck, Paige moaned with pleasure and began stroking his neck in such a way that she knew drove him wild, Rimmer moved back up to her mouth and kissed her harder, pushing himself against her he didn't care anymore, he had these strange feelings pushing inside him and didn't know what to do or how to get them out, it helped when he touched or kissed her.
It was clear to Paige that he was completely clueless, not that she thought of herself as an expert of sex or anything, she had slept with one person back home before she left to join the space corp and even that had been bumpy strange not really in love with each other sex. This felt different, each of his kisses raised a fire inside of her, each gentle caress had her aching for more, she didn't want to take control she knew it would be important for him to do but it couldn't hurt if she helped him a long a little bit surely?
Rimmer gasped as she took hold of him and stared down at her, he didn't want her to stop but he didn't know if he should say that or not, instead he opted for just kissing her again, Paige smiled as he buried his face in her shoulder and let out a series of guttural groans in response to her actions, kissing him again she smiled as he visibly relaxed and smiled back, "I love you" he whispered.
3 orgasms later and one nap they woke up wrapped around each other, Rimmer scratched his head and smiled down at Paige sleeping soundly. Curling back around her he tried to drift back off but he was too hungry, flipping back on his back he laid there picturing everything that had done over the last 2 hours, things he had never dreamt or, things he had never realised would feel that good. With a huge smile he decided Paige had enjoyed more than enough sleep ……
Additional note from your lovely author - HUGE homage to Cazflibs at the beginning of my last paragraph, I totally stole that line from her amazing short ficcy 'Only the one' which is full of lovely Ace Rimmerness and lovely naughty suggestiveness. I do prefer sex-coma to 'nap' but I cant totally rip off the line hahha X
P.s Thank you all for your amazing reviews, it really makes me happy and makes me write loads faster! X
