Sorry for the week long wait. I finally got time to write today, but I ended up writing a Nix one shot instead of a new chapter, but here, now I'm writing.
You're going to have to excuse my lateness in updating these few weeks because I have a billion tests to cram for and I'm wrapping up the final chapters of my novel! I'm so excited and sad at the same time. On one hand, I want to finally see it as a THING, and on the other hand, I'm sad to say good-bye to my characters for a while until I start Book 2 in the series. I promise my writing in it is wayyyyy better than my fanfiction. I write Nix fanfiction because I have nowhere else to put my head-cannons, but for my book, it's all outlined and planned out and whatnot.
Okay I have no idea why I'm writing this.
Let's get to the reading!

*SIX'S POV*
Leave it to Nine to confuse me more than I already am confused.
So yesterday, after we decided to forget about everything, we fought again, but that time, we were smiling. We didn't look at each other with pure loathing. It was kind of pleasant actually. The two powerhouses combining and pushing each other towards the best –it was beautiful.
Today, though, Nine is acting like nothing happened. He even taunted me about slugs this morning. It doesn't help that Sam is avoiding me at the same time.
See, this is why I don't consider having a boyfriend a top priority. Guys are just stupid when it comes to love and we've got a war here, people!
Ugh!

*NINE'S POV*
"NINE! JUST FREAKING LISTEN! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE MY WORK SO HARD?" Sarah yells at me. I turn around to face her, rolling my eyes.
"Look, Sarah. I don't know who designated you as the love guru here, but get over it," I say. "I do not need relationship advice. I don't even have a relationship to get advice for, for Lorien's sake."
"And you won't if you don't let me help you," Sarah says. John sighs.
"Just let her help you," he says.
I huff, sitting on my bed. Sarah crosses her leg on the couch across from my bed. John looks at her, as if to ask Well, are you going to give him advice or not?
"So, Nine, how did you feel about my awesome dare?" Sarah asks.
I shrug. "Didn't change anything, I guess," I say. "It was just one kiss."
"One very heated, enjoyed make out session," Sarah corrects.
I roll my eyes. "Whatever," I say.
"Dude," John says. "She's trying to set you up with Six. Let her."
I want to punch him. And that just shows how good of a person I am because I'd rather punch him than tell him he was moony-eyed for Six not too long ago. In front of Sarah. So yeah I'm a pretty good Loric.
"You and Six were making out quite responsively," Sarah says. "Marina had to cover Ella's eyes. A lot of people make out during Truth or Dare, but usually, it isn't that… real-looking. I am 100% honest. Nine, I saw something between you two, and then it hit me. What better match for the tough guy, than the tough girl?"
I sigh, exasperated. "Is this really necessary?" I ask.
"Yes," Sarah answers. "To get rid of your grumpiness."
.
*SIX'S POV*
A storm is raging outside, courtesy of me. Marina bites her lip as she stares out the window. "What are you doing?" she murmurs. I ignore her, and instead, I channel my emotions and thoughts.
John barges into the room, followed by Sarah and Nine with his usual bored-looking face. "Six!" John calls. "What are you doing? People will get suspicious!" I will the storm to die down a little bit.
I shrug. "I'm bored," I say. "This is how I entertain myself."
"Then find a new hobby," John says. "We can't afford to have people notice strange weather patterns." I roll my eyes, making the storm less intense by the second.
"Find me a hobby, John. If you're so good at it," I say.
"Making out with Nine?" Sarah suggests, smirking.
"Enough of that," Nine says, brushing her off. "It was bad enough the first time."
Bad enough?
The storm goes back to full force.
.
*NINE'S POV*
So I'm supposed to be Nine, the dude who wants to make out with girls WHEREVER he goes. That dude isn't doing a good job then.
Bad enough? What the hell was that, you ask?
I have no damn idea. It's not like I'm scared of making out with Six. Plus it was just a Sarah joke.
So I just stare at her as she is lying down on her back, soaking wet. Six ended up killing the storm eventually, but an hour later, she came up to the roof and created a small cloud so that it only rained on her.
I grow a spine and walk over. "What are you doing?" I ask her.
"Creating weather shit," she says.
"Ah," I say, lying down next to her.
"I just love the weather," she says out of the blue. "It's like a world I own where I can do whatever I want. I wish I could do that in the real world."
"You can," I say. "And so can I. And so can anyone."
"Other than killing Setrakus Ra and saving Lorien and going back home, what do you want to do right now?" Six asks me. "Anything."
I grin. "Well," I say. "For one thing, I would really prefer that I was kissing you right now."
Six smirks back. "Oh?" she asks innocently. "I thought you said we can do whatever we want." She rolls over, so that she's on top of me, leaning against her elbows, water dripping from her soaked hair and clothes onto me. I don't mind.
I wrap my arms around her slim waist and bring her in. Our lips move in perfect unison. It's all breathtaking. Six is taking my breath away. She bites my lower lip and we proceed to make out on the roof. We roll over, and she tangles her fingers in my hair. I kiss her jawline.
And we're made for each other.
And we're the perfect match.
And I sure as hell love kissing her.
"We shouldn't be doing this."
.
*SIX'S POV*
I scramble and push him off me, standing up. I'm not going to beg him for anything. I don't even like him. If he thinks we shouldn't be doing this, then to hell with him and his perfect lips that somehow seem to be the perfect fit for mine.
"You know, whatever, Nine," I say, starting to turn away from him. "Just… whatever."
*NINE's POV*
I have got to be the dumbest idiot in the world.
.
Not some of my best work, but I'm tired yet I forced myself to finish this before sleeping. Adios!
