A/N: Ok guys so here's the deal. In this chapter there is a mild lemon I guess (?) it's nothing really descriptive Nothing below the neck so that's nice, but it is awkward for ME to be posting this and for me to know that you guys are reading this. So if you enjoy it, whohoo, if you're someone who doesn't really care for that kind of smutty stuff then skip over Tab's POV and the Narrator's POV. Just go straight to the last Narrator's POV, there's nothing sexual in that. But yeah the middle Narrator's POV, is the most descriptive and I couldn't go on so it's hella short there. And I wrote this because it's a key part to the story, not because I'm some horny teenager, I'd expect a little more respect then that honestly. But anyways, the last line is a major clue. But don't start guessing because you'll get it wrong...trust me. Well anyways that's my major warning WARNING, I'll say it again just once more WARRRRNNNIINnNGGGGG! Rated low M to really High T.
I don't own IZ.
I also might not to review responses for the next chapter because it's just SO awkward, I was a blushing mess the whole time I wrote this...O.o. And don't get me wrong, there's nothing (Well not much) wrong with sex, it's just...just no in my book. It's plainly obvious that I'll be in jail once or twice for knocking out a friendly person here and there, everyone knows it XD. So that's why there's so much of a warning. I'm not doing last chapters review responses this chapter, I'm saving them for the next chapter so I hope you guys enjoy and have a good night!
~Deathwish1234, at the awkwardest moment in time... -.O I listened to Hello by evanesence, Iris by the goo goo dolls, Acoustic three by the goo goo dolls, last to know by three days grace, Redneck crazy, Wastin' all these tears, we went out last night and roads untraveled by Linkin Park while writing this chapter. So now you know a bit of what I like to listen to =D I don't own the songs, they go to their respective owners.
Tab's POV.
Jax and I walked down the hall of a fancy hotel hand in hand, "Dinner was…interesting," I commented, smirking slightly.
"Well you know, when a guy talks to us and just stares in one place on your body when I'm RIGHT there, there is going to be some kind of tussle," Jax huffed back, ever so slightly smirking.
"I thought that guy was you," I teased making him roll his eyes and smile at me.
"Well, I must admit he wasn't the only one. You are extremely gorgeous in that dress, and it's a showy dress what do you expect?" He mumbled while sliding our key into the door. I laughed loudly and socked his arm as the red light beeped and turned green, letting us know it was ok to go in.
"I expect you to respect me and look me in the eyes."
"What like this?" He said, towering over me and getting up into my face. He crossed his eyes at me making me laugh and shove him off.
"Almost, you're close though. A for effort," I teased. We opened the door to our room and stepped inside, smiling at the site in front of us. It was a small place with a living room and kitchen at the bottom then a small ladder that lead up to a loft where the bed and bathrooms were. I smiled at the site of the bed, it was surrounded by a pretty crystal that glowed a gentle purple, it was gorgeous. The hue from the energy crystal illuminated the room making everything look shiny and dark all at the same time.
Jax went over to the wall and felt around for a light switch, "Here we go," He mumbled flipping the switch. When nothing happened I glanced over at him to see him try again with no luck, "Annnd there's no power. Wonderful."
"Oh no worries, the energy crystals around the bed give off enough light to at least see the outline of everything," I replied and smirked over at him, "It illuminates your skin too, looks good on you."
"My skin?" Jax asked, quirking an 'eye brow' at me, "Take a good look at yourself miss. But I must say I am flattered." I laughed and threw my jacket at him.
"Who says I was talking to you? Maybe I saw myself in a mirror!"
"Hmm, I think I could just assume from the way you were one staring at me and two undressing me with your eyes," I laughed loudly at that comment and stalked over to him.
"Isn't that your job?"
"Eh well…" I blushed at the teasing look he gave me and socked him in the arm again, "What!? It's kind of hard not to when you're the prettiest thing in the city!" I halted at that and slowly turned towards him. He tilted his head slightly as his antenna perked, "What?"
"You think…I'm? The prettiest thing in the whole city?"
He blushed and looked away, "Well…yeah, is that a bad thing?" I smiled and walked back over to him, grabbing his tie and pulling his face close to mine.
"Not. At. All," He smiled gently at me when I pulled him forwards and kissed him with passion. We stayed like that for a minute before I felt his arms gently wrap around me and pull me closer to himself as we broke apart and went back in again.
The heavy kissing excelled until we were both panting gently and grabbing fist fulls of the other's clothing. I looked Jax straight in the eye for a second while he looked back into mine, stunned. "I need to get out of my clothes and by the time I'm back you better be in bed waiting for me."
"Well I can help you take your clothes off," Jax teased, grinning at me like a smeet during Irksmas.
I blushed insanely at his comment before answering him, "I'm sure you can but this tight dress, ain't coming off without a little grease and muscle. So I had better do that, but you can take anything else off when I come back," He laughed and leaned in to kiss me again.
"And you're sure you want to do this? We don't have to if you're not ready."
"No I'm ready, but this I've never done anything like this before," I said, blushing again.
"I know, you told me earlier. I'll be gentle I promise," He reassured while cupping my face in his hands, "Now go on, I already miss you and you haven't even left yet." I laughed and smiled at him before walking off and grabbing my bag full of clothes. I quickly struggled out of my dress and pulled on some sweats and a tank top before reemerging and throwing my bag onto the couch.
I took a deep breath before climbing up to the loft and spotting Jax on the bed, he'd taken his over coat and tie off before settling down in the comforters, "Hey beautiful, come here often?"
"Clearly not often enough," I smiled while crawling into the bed and straddling him. He smiled gently at me before grabbing my hand and kissing it.
"Ready?" He asked gently. I nodded and leaned in to gently press my lips against his while grabbing his button up shirt and slowly unbuttoning it. We gently fell back into the bed as he helped me unbutton his shirt and get rid of it.
Vex's POV.
After about an hour of continuous riding we halted at the edge of my old home. It was dark out now, maybe around ten o'clock at night, but we were there and that's all that mattered, "We're…we're here!"
"FINALLY!" Rye shouted in relief. Mia was surprisingly calm was she held onto Angel's mane and used her antenna to try and imagine what was going on around her.
"What can't take a little saddle sore once and a while?" Cari teased with an evil smirk. I shot her a disapproving look while jump off my horses back and stroking his neck.
"Can ya?" I asked her, seeing her jump off the horse and hiss in pain. She shot me a look that I just shrugged at while going over to help Mia down. "Come 'ere kiddo, I'm right here."
She reached her hand out and grabbed mine before using her other hand to search for my shoulder in case she slipped. "I gotcha," I said while gently pulling her off the horse and setting her down on the ground.
"What about me?" Riley asked, looking at me expectantly.
"I think ya can jump off the horse yerself," I snorted while grabbing Mia's hand and taking a step back with her. Riley rolled her eyes and ungracefully slipped off the horse and collapsed onto her knees on the ground. I rolled my eyes and led Mia over to untie the rope from the horse before wrapping it back around my waist and dragging her after me as I made sure the others got off safely and were standing at the fence line.
"Does everyone have everythin'?" I asked and glanced around while adjusting my hat on my head. It was a little loose but it still fit snugly.
"Yeah."
"Yup."
"I think so," Everyone replied. Mia squeezed my hand and I looked down at her.
"What's up kiddo?"
"Do you know where my bag is?" She asked quietly.
"Yeah, I've got it. Now come on, I want ya ta get a good feel of the property before I let ya wander off ta bed." I said eagerly while leading her through the fence and through the long, grassy pastures. It's been more than three years since I'd even glanced at this place, so clearly things were a little over grown. Not far off the barn was still standing tall, that's where I helped give birth to Angel. Around the barn were tall grass and a bunch of scraggly lookin' weeds that didn't belong there in the first place.
"I don't have enough places in the house fer everyone to stay, so Riley, you're stayin' in the barn," I commented, glancing around as the emerald grass swayed gently back and forth in the breeze.
"WHAT!?" She snarled, yanking hard on her bonds and sitting down to make it more difficult for me to pull her along.
"Well ya won't be alone," I shrugged, "I'll be stayin' out there too an' probably one other person, but they can work that out."
"Do I not have a say in this?!" She spat, antenna lowering angry as she glared hatefully at me.
"No ya don't, sounds familiar huh?" I growled back, glaring hard at her before taking a deep breath. 'Don't judge her,' I told myself as I held myself back from strangling the life out of her.
"I can stay in the barn too, Mr. Vex," Mia said quietly while staring blindingly at the ground. I gave her a sympathetic look and squeezed her hand before answering.
"A'ight kiddo. We'll see about that, I'm not sure I wantcha out there when it's so cold."
"Well I'm not going anywhere," Riley hissed, crossing her arms over her chest.
I thought for a moment before glancing at the fence post near her, "Fine, suit yerself. I'll leave ya out here." I waited for a second, watching her expression closely as her ferocious look turned into a cowardly one.
"The barn will be just fine…" She muttered, looking back down at the ground.
"Good little demon bitch from hell," Mia smacked me with her antenna at that comment. I just rolled my eyes and ruffled her antenna before turning my attention back to Riley, "Then let's get movin'. Everyone's cold 'n hungry."
She growled under her breath before getting to her feet and slowly sauntering along after me and the others. We made it into the house with ease seeing as it wasn't locked after it was confiscated by the government.
"There are three guest rooms, the living room an' my room. Take yer pic," I said to the others while they piled in and collapsed down onto the couch.
"I call a guest room," Minerva and Sky said eagerly. Sky glanced over at Mia to see she didn't seem to be listening. I too glanced down at Mia before pushing her forwards slightly.
"Why don't ya go stay with the other girlys?" I said softly, hoping she'd agree and make up with her sister.
"…No," She said like a shy little kid before taking a few steps backwards and grabbing my leg to hide behind, "I wanna stay with you."
I sighed and ruffled her antenna again, "I don't think it's a good idea kiddo. It's real cold out since winters comin', I don't wantcha to freeze."
"Vex I want to stay with you," She said seriously, holding my leg tighter as her antenna drooped, "I don't care what the circumstances are." I looked up at the other girls who seemed to look a little sad that Mia didn't want to hang with them. But I understood, even if I didn't approve.
"Then at least go say night to em, then we'll head off ta the barn," I mumbled to her. She shook her head and tried to hide her face behind my leg which was initially a little hard, "Mia come on. She's yer sister."
"She made me blind," Mia hissed back.
"Mia," I said sternly, "it was an accident." However when I was about to make her go say goodnight to her twin, I'd looked up to see Sky had already left the room with Minerva slowly following in her footsteps. "Night girls, stay warm. An' there's extra comforter's in the closets'!"
"I'll take the other guest room," Rae said before grabbing her back and hugging her dad goodnight. She walked off not a moments later before poppin' her head back out, "Vex do you have a shower here?"
"Yup, second left hallway, third door down," I said with a small smile. I still knew this place like I knew my own hat…and I knew everythin' about my hat…EVERYTHING!"
"I'll stay in the living room, I'm more used to that anyways," Cari said calmly while nodding to he who shall not be named, "Besides you need a work space and a room close to your daughter."
He who shall not be named looked a little awkward at first before giving off a curt not and heading after his daughter while dragging some heavy bags behind him. I looked over at Cari with an emotionless face before muttering, "Night," and turning to head off to the barn.
Narrator's POV.
Meanwhile, Jax and Tabitha were frantically kissing each other, their clothes having been discarded a while ago. Tab's arms were wrapped around Jax's shoulders gently while she twirled his antenna through her claws. Jax made a small noise of pleasure and broke away from her to gently kiss her neck.
Neither of them had ever felt this way before, they felt wanted and loved by each other. It was…nice. Nice to be held, to be touched, to be wanted and to be loved. Jax gently bit the soft skin on Tabitha's neck while she growled and scratched his antenna gently. She felt like she couldn't blush any harder where as he felt like he was loving the most beautiful women alive.
They were wrapped up in the heavy comforter together, in a tangled mess of arms, antenna and legs. Jax reached up and grabbed her hand, pinning it by her side and interlocking their claws together while giving her butterfly kisses up her jaw line and back to her lips, "I love you," He panted gently, locking lips with her again while gently closing his eyes.
"I love you too," She said back, frantically trying to keep up with their heavy kissing.
(I got lost right there and couldn't continue without feeling EXTREMELY AWKWARD, so Yeahhhh. XD)
Vex's POV.
I walked with Mia out to the barn while dragging the demon bitch from hell along with me, she didn't seem too impressed about staying in the barn but I could honestly care less. I was right when I said it'd be cold out tonight, it was dropping to freezing temps and since there were no clouds the stars were out, making the world even colder…but a little brighter.
I was carrying a bunch of comforters, pillows and a lantern under the arm I wasn't holding Mia's hand with. She seemed a little nervous and kept tripping but I just kept catching her and getting her back up on her feet, she had to get to know the property before we left again which didn't sound fair, but it was good for honing her other senses in while she wasn't able to see.
"Come on, we're sleepin' in the loft," I mumbled having Riley, then Mia then myself climb up until they were in the loft that was still filled with tons of straw and other amounts of hay.
"What a five star hotel," Riley said sarcastically. I rolled my eyes and groaned, 'this is gonna be a lonnnnggg night.'
"A'ight, Riley you get the farthest corner, which is also the warmest," I said calmly walking her over to the corner and tying her to a tick post. I dropped a heavy blanket, bottle of water and a large pillow to make her comfortable.
"You're just going to leave me here?" She asked, looking up at me with fake puppy dogs eyes. I stared at her for a moment before shrugging.
"Yeah." I walked off seconds' later and put my hand on Mia's shoulder, "Come on kiddo we're over here." She nodded and followed me next to a large pile of dry hay and felt around before sitting down and leaning up against the bales.
"Can you describe the barn?" She asked as I threw a blanket over her and tucked her in.
"Hmm well, it's large but not too big. A liver chestnut color with a red trim an' a black roof. Inside there's about ten thick wooden posts juttin' up from all corners an' the middle of the barn," I stopped to make sure she got it all and she nodded quietly, willing me to go on, "And the loft is about ten feet wide on each side, there's a bunch of old hay everywhere, a few ropes and windows an' that's about it."
"It sounds pretty," Mia mumbled, leaning heavily onto my shoulder while curling up into a ball.
"It's not," Riley called. I glared at her before rolling my eyes ONCE again and turning back to Mia.
"She's lyin', it's real pretty. We'll be safe here for the next few nights but fer now it's time fer ya ta get some sleep don'tcha think?"
"But I wanna stay up and hear more about your property," she complained through a large yawn, "The barn sounds pretty, but it must be nothin' compared to everything else around here." I couldn't help but crack a small smile at her. She was tryin' so hard ta stay awake when in reality; she'd be out like a light within' a heartbeat.
"Ain't nothin's gonna change by the time ya get up tomorrow, so ya need ta go ta sleep miss," Her antenna lowered in disappointment before she decided to crawl into my lap and rest her head on my shoulder. I was surprised at first, she's usually not the type to get close to someone but it wasn't all that bad. I felt like she was my child that I never had so it was kind of nice ta be the dad again.
"You won't fall asleep before I do right?" She asked while burying herself in the comforters and holding onto my arm for dear life.
"No, I won't. I promise," I said gently while pettin' her antenna and leaning back against the wall, "You'll be safe."
"…Ok," She yawned again while closing her eyes, "Night uncle Vex."
"Night sweetheart."
"Night sweet heart," I heard Riley mock from her corner of the barn.
"Could ya shut up…fer five minutes?!" I growled at her, throwing a small water bottle at her. She yelped and dodged out of the way before sticking her tongue out at me and curling back up, "Immature little demon bitch from hell. That's a good name fer ya," I muttered to myself while glaring angrily at her.
"You started it," She snapped, apparently hearing my insult.
"Ya ended it," I spat back, "Want me ta knock ya out with the butt of a gun? It feels great," I snarled sarcastically while my pupils narrowed in hatred.
"No, that's an officer's job."
"I was a guard; I had a license ta kill people and yer tellin' me I can't hit someone with a gun? Ya ain't in a real good position ta be back talkin' smart ass."
"Ooooo what're you gonna do to me? Hook me up outside like some wild animal!?"
"Well now that you've mentioned it," I droned smirking when I heard her yell in anger. She wasn't so bad once you got past her bitchy personality. In fact, it was almost fun to piss her off and get a little riled up. I don't get to argue like this with someone everyday so it turns out to be quite entertaining.
"You're an asshole."
"What I'm sorry, I was just over 'ere not givin' a shit so PLEASE continue talkin' ta yerself…it's very entertainin'." She shouted in anger again before chucking the water bottle back at my face. I caught it before it could hit either Mia or myself, "Ya throw like a little girl."
"You back sass like a cocky guy," She spat back, glaring at me with her gentle purple eyes from her corner.
"Why thank ya," I said, smiling sarcastically, "It ain't everyday a girl gives me a compliment."
"That wasn't a compliment!" She roared banging her head into the floor, "And you know they say the cockier the guy is the tinier his best friend down south is."
"Ooooo now that just hurts, you'll have ta take that up with my wife, I think she'd have something ta say bout that but oh wait, ya can't because SHE'S NOT HERE!"
"Complain, complain, complain! It's not savin' lives!" She shouted back.
"What an' ya are?" I shot back, giving her a hard look, "the only life yer savin' is yer own by bein' a cowardly little bitch."
"Ooooo someone's grumpy, looks like they haven't been laid in a while!"
"Three years ta be exact an' I'll have ya know before ya so rudely interrupted my wife and I, I had a very healthy sex life."
"Oh yes because that's why she was only pregnant with your first child."
"First child that made it," I spat back. Riley paused for a second, "Three miscarriages, and one survivor."
"Oh…well then clearly you were doing something wrong…"
"How can ya do somethin' wrong while-!"
"Don't finish that sentence."
"Grumpy little demon bitch from hell," I grumbled before turning away from her and pulling my hat down over my eyes, "Go ta bed ya little brat."
Narrator's POV.
The moon rose high into the sky while shining gently upon the quiet city. Everyone seemed to be in bed tonight, not even wanting to go out and party throughout the night. Albeit some were at work, the others just seemed to appreciate the night and the fact that the moon was so bright. The small red moon next to it looked a little more menacing though, but not horrible.
There are three moons on Irk, the biggest and brightest blue moon, then the second smallest red moon and finally ending with the smallest moon that gave off a whitish silver hue. Currently the silver moon was shining gently into the hotel room Jax and Tabitha were currently resigning in making everything glow and shine in the darkness.
As for the two lovers, well they were tangled up in the comforter asleep. Jax was on his back with one hand resting on his bare chest and the other still interlocked with Tabitha's. His face was turned towards hers as they laid together. Tab was curled up in a ball pressed up against Jax. Her face resting on his shoulder, pressed into his neck and under his chin. Their eyes were gently closed as their antenna intertwined above their heads, resting on the pillow.
It was cold in the room around them but with each other's warmth and the blanket they were keeping up a pleasant temperature to soothe them throughout the night. It was clear neither of them were going to move an inch for the next few hours, they were too comfortable and too happy with each other to even THINK about moving away from the other. Albeit their bodies moved naturally while sleeping into different positions, they still weren't about to let go of each other.
This moment was just too good…Almost too good to be true.
A/N:...So...um...yeah. I guess I hope you guys enjoyed (?) It was hard to write which is why I'm updating so late, but I think I handled the situation very well. So yes...I really don't know what else to say.
Oh hey I got another horse yesterday! His names skipper and he's coming home wednesday. He's hella tall and very gentle. I'm excited to get him home so everyone give Skipper a WARM welcome! WELCOME TO THE FAMILY SKIPPER!
Review responses in the next chapter that may or may not be mixed with the other ones. ALSO I'm travelling until the 8th so updating is going to be hard. I'll type a lot but hardly any updates...sorry. Don't worry though, the real action is literally just about a chapter or two away. 8D
GOODNIGHT EVERYONE!
