Situation
Chapter 6: Innocence in Cobalt Part 1
After a hot make out session, I'm left breathless next to a shirtless samurai. We still had about half an hour before we get to Cobalt, and retrieve the Innocence. In my opinion, the trip over to assist finders was stupid, but orders are orders.
We lay together until the train stops and we get our stuff. After departing from the train station, Kanda and I walk to where the finders were supposed to be. I'm not sure about the bluenette, but I had no clue where we were going. All I knew was that as I strolled along with him was that I wished that we could still be at the Order. I wanted to continue what we were doing in the train compartment with the fogged up windows. I blush at the thought of the dirty things we were doing.
My eyes scan the crowded streets, looking for our targets. I find nothing and that's when it hits me. Wooziness trying to take me down in its grasp, I use all my effort to not sleep on the spot. I had slept good last night, but I can't shake the feeling. Eyelids threatening to fall, I rub them, but can't rid myself of the urge to nap. My vision begins to blur slightly, two images of Kanda beside me and the sun casting a silver, moon-like shine. I don't even feel the impact as I hit the ground and black out.
My hearing comes to me first, detecting voices behind me. One was definitely Kanda's and the other two were unfamiliar.
"We found the Innocence hidden in a toy shop," someone says, probably a finder.
I recognize Kanda's huff, not understanding his dismay, "Why were you in there to begin with?!"
"We sensed it was in there so we got it. Do you realize how many people were staring at the two men looking through a box of furry handcuffs?"
Another huff from my boyfriend, and I hear him sit in a rolling chair beside me. I can sense that I'm lying in a bed and can smell Moonlight Mist. Though they're heavy, I slowly manage to open my eyes. A small ceiling fan is running above me, and the light was coming from a lamp beside me. A hotel room. I was in a hotel room.
"Kanda?" my throat is dry, but I manage. The bluenette rolls closer to me and says, "What happened to you?"
"How should I know? I was unconscious," I reply, wondering why I had.
"One minute you were walking beside me, the next I heard you fall. While I was bringing you here, I ran into the finders. Plus, they lost the Innocence," I heard agitation and worry in his voice as he explained.
I pushed myself up into a sitting position, but immediately regret it as wooziness fills me, and I flop back down. "Don't sit up, Baka," Kanda says. I grunt, but make no objection as I lay there. Suddenly, he stands and grabs Mugen from where it was propped up against the wall, "I'm going to look for the Innocence. I'll start at the shop to see if someone took it there, and then search around the town."
I whine, "I want to go! I can help!" I attempt to sit up again, but Kanda pushes me back down, "No, you're staying in this bed until you're well again. Besides, I'm not letting you go anywhere near that store."
I glare at the finders as they chuckle. I growl, "It's just a kid's store!" Kanda rolls his eyes, obviously tired of my confusion, "You can think that, but I'm not letting go in that store. You still have innocence left in you."
"Then what's Mugen if it's not Innocence?" I challenge, not understanding his issue. He opens the door, "One of you explain it to him!"
One of the finders follows him out the door and shuts it behind him. The other sits in the rolling chair Kanda was in. What was wrong with the store? Did Kanda discriminate against my type of Innocence? My head throbbed from the mixture of emotion and dizziness in my mind. I was scared to sleep without Kanda, but I was so tired!
I glance over the small room. There was pretty much a nightstand between two twin beds, a bathroom to my right, followed by the window and door. Nothing else was in the room other than the rolling chair and tiny table. I say, "Are you going to explain Kanda's issue?"
The finder replied, "The two of you are dating, right?" I nod, not understanding the question. He smiles, "He can explain it better. You'll probably visit one with him soon anyways."
With that, he bursts out laughing. I shake my head in bewilderment, but push it no further. I struggle to keep my eyes open. I didn't know why I was so exhausted, but whatever it was, it won the battle. My eyelids fell, and I drifted into a deep slumber.
I felt much better when I woke up. The dizziness and pain had vanished completely, and I was wide awake. I rose from the bed, looking around. The sky outside seemed to be darkening through the curtain, and the finder was asleep in the bed to my left. That in mind, I pick up my suitcase and dig until I find the pills I was supposed to take. After gathering a change of clothes, I enter the bathroom and lock the door behind me.
I take a pill and strip. I fold my jacket and toss the remainder of the clothing to the corner of the small room. The vanity was small and attached to a large mirror. The toilet was next, followed by the bath and shower. I realize that the gauze from two nights ago was still on my chest and I remove it. The scratches were by no means healed, but were on the road of recovery. I wrap the bloody gauze in toilet paper and put it in the trash can.
I turn on the shower and clog the drain. Once the water was to my liking, I stepped into the collecting puddle in the white fiberglass tub. As I pull the curtain across the beam, I hiss at the pain of the hot water pounding on my wound.
I sink down into the tub. The water washes away the outside world. I sigh after the initial pain of the water on my wounds. I'm surprised the pain hasn't bothered me lately. I mean, you'd think that Kanda's weight on my chest would have hurt, but I guess I was a little occupied. I smile and brush my fingers across my lips, the lips that felt the curves on Kanda's body.
I sit up and turn my body so the water was mutilating my back and head. The drops dripped off my snowy hair, returning to where they belong in the tub of water. I wish I could join them. I knew I didn't belong to the living world. Sure, a few people liked me, but I knew the result that my shirt being off would have. I wouldn't have anyone. I love you, I hate you, I can't live without you. I breathe you, I taste you, I can't live without you.
Was I taking Kanda down with me? I didn't know the answer and I hated it. Kanda was independent. He didn't need me clinging to him and giving him dead weight to drag around. I sit in the water and ponder the thought. After pushing away the thought and the urge to claw at my chest and reopen the wounds, I wash my body with the soap supplied by the hotel, and turn off the shower, unclogging the drain.
I step out of the shower, drying off. My ears detect voices in the other room and I try to pick up the conversation. I can't tell what their saying exactly, but from the bits and pieces, I assume it's to do with getting another room. Good. It would be awkward for the finders to see Kanda and I sleep together. I pull on my clothes and feel chilled. I would definitely need to put on a sweater or something. After putting away my clothes and pills into my case, I pull out a gray wool sweater and slip it on. I open the door, the coolness of the room causing me to shiver. I realize the finders had just walked out the door, and Kanda was propping Mugen against the wall next to the table.
I set my suitcase on the table and silently lie on the bed, pulling the blankets to my neck. I still was cold, nearly shaking. I refuse to let myself chatter, and ask, "The finder told me to ask you about the store. He also said you would take me to one soon anyways."
His head snapped up at me at the last bit of the sentence and curses flew out his mouth. "I still don't understand," I say, the shivers winning and my teeth start chattering. I pull the blanket over my mouth, trying to cover the sound. My boyfriend dodged the question with one of his own, "Are you cold?"
I roll my eyes, "No, Baka, I like the sound of my teeth chattering! Of course I'm cold!"
He walks to the bed and climbs in beside me. He wraps his arms around my trembling form, and I cling to his warm body for dear life. My chattering is muffled by his chest, but I'm still freezing. "You're burning up, Allen," he says, concern in his voice.
I shake my head, "I d-d-don't know h-how. I f-feel like I'm in a fr-freezer."
"You need to go to the hospital."
"No! I'm f-fine. I j-j-just need to war-warm up," I was shaking really badly, and Kanda's body wasn't helping any. "Now answer m-my question. What's wr-rong with the st-store?"
Kanda sighs, "It's not a kid's store. It's an adult store."
"I st-still don't understand."
He groans, obviously uncomfortable with the situation, "And you call yourself Cross's apprentice?"
"I am! He n-never said anything ab-bout any adult stores!" I argue.
The bluenette's shoulders slump in defeat and he mumbles something under his breath. "What?"
"A sex store, Allen," he speaks louder. I would have froze, but I was shivering so much, I couldn't. That was what he meant by toy store? I whimper at my stupidity and say, "Oh, s-sorry."
"There's no need to apologize," he replies. We lay in silence other than my teeth chattering. I was about to die of frostbite. I'm not sure how, but after an hour of the cold seeping to my bones, I manage to fall asleep.
When I wake, Kanda is still holding me and the blankets were half way over my eyes. I free myself from my boyfriend's grasp. I was fine. If anything I was a little too warm. I turn and see that Kanda was still asleep. I can't believe I didn't wake him up. I wonder if he was up all night trying to keep me warm. I see the sheen of sweat on his face.
He must really care about me if he suffered the heat to protect me from the cold. I was really messed up, what with fainting and then freezing half to death. I shake my head. Maybe I did need to see a doctor. I go into the bathroom and take a pill. I pull the suffocating sweater over my head, and wet a washcloth, squeezing out as much extra cold fluid as I could.
I returned to the main room and Kanda is still sacked out. He was so peaceful when he slept, his face relaxed and his hair splayed out around him. I crawled onto the bed again and began to press the washcloth to his face. He still doesn't wake as I try to rid his face and neck of the sweat. As soon as I run the cloth over his hairline though, his eyes open.
He really was sensitive to people touching his hair. His dark orbs meet mine, "Are you okay now?"
I smile, "Yeah, I'm fine now. I don't know why I was so cold, but it's passed." I begin to press the cool washcloth to his face again, but he pulls away slightly. I roll my eyes and run it along his cheek despite his obvious objection of trying to back away from it.
"Do you have I problem with me touching you?" I ask, pulling away. He shakes his head, "No, it's just my face. I don't like people touching it."
"So, I'm just 'a person' now?" my voice was filled with hurt. He doesn't trust me enough to let me clean his face, but lets me lick any part of him I want. That made perfect sense.
"No, I just…I'm sorry," he turns his head away from me. I toss the washcloth into the bathroom quickly, and curl up beside him. I put my arm across his chest and rest my head on his shoulder. I whisper, "I can't say anything. I still won't le-"
"Don't start that again," he says. "I told you I don't care about your shirt."
I whimper slightly, and he looks at me, his dark eyes piercing my soul. I turn my head, staring at the door across the room. I feel his lips on the top of my head, and I glance at him through my hair. He had his head against the pillow, glaring at the ceiling. He wasn't good with expressing his feelings, and I couldn't blame him. Explaining is hard. I push myself up a little, and place a kiss on his jaw before lying back down.
Trying to lighten the mood, I ask, "Did you find the Innocence?"
He nodded, his jaw clenched, "The finder says it's in the store, but we can't find it. We searched everywhere for it. I think it's in something, like a product."
"I can come look with you gu-"
"No."
"But-"
"No."
"Kanda! I'm not a baby!" I argue.
"According to the sign that says you have to be eighteen to go in you are."
"I'm still sixteen though!" I was getting mad. I was determined to go in that store and help find the Innocence.
"Then you can't go in," he said, not an ounce of mercy in his voice. I sit up on my knees, hands on his chest, "You can't stop me from going in if I want to!"
"Allen, I'm not letting my boyfriend go in a store full of people who might…" he trails off, looking away from me again.
I laugh slightly, "So that's it? You're jealous? It's not like I'm not used to those kind of people. When I was with Master, all the prostitutes in town were trying to hook up with me."
Kanda's eyes bulge as he faces me, "You're not helping your cause here."
"What? Afraid I'm not a virgin? I could have told you I'm not," I say. It was fun to watch his reactions. Yu Kanda was jealous!
"WHAT?!" I had his full attention now and he was sitting straight up, staring at me with disbelief in his eyes. I double over laughing, clutching my stomach and rolling from side to side. I barely get out, "I'm…kidding! I'm still…a virgin!"
If I didn't know I was safe, I would've that the bluenette was going to strangle me. I finally stop laughing, wiping a tear from my eye. Kanda wasn't amused, but it was still hilarious. I say, "Are you seriously worried about that?"
He growls, "No, I just don't want people to get the wrong idea."
"Liar, just admit it. You were worried that I was so uneducated that I would leave with someone," I say.
"Fine, I admit it. Now, will you shut up?" his eyes were guarded, but I could still sense the embarrassment in the depths. Pushing him back down on the bed, I smile and lean over him, hands on either side of his head, "You think I'm uneducated?"
When he doesn't reply, I continue, "I can prove just how much I know, if you need me to." He quickly shakes his head, but I still press my lips against his. He responds immediately, grabbing my waist and making me straddle him. He tries to push his tongue in my mouth, but I nip the end of the muscle. He retracts it with a wince while I my lips move along his jaw.
I bite and lick down his neck, each gasp of pain quickly turning to a moan of pleasure. Coming to the hickey I made before, I run my tongue over the sensitive area before sinking my teeth into it. Kanda's heavy breathing hitches and I taste the blood in my mouth. The wound wasn't serious, but it was definitely bleeding and I clean it with my tongue before returning to the bluenette's mouth. I knew he could taste the blood, and also knew it was like venom to indulge in your own blood.
I lap up more of the crimson liquid and push it into his mouth. He reached up to tug on my hair, but I swat the hand away. This show was mine, and he should know that. I move back to the bite and clean it before pulling off his blue shirt in one swift movement. I reattach myself to his shoulder, making my way down his chest. I get to his nipple and purposely lick, nip, and kiss around it, careful not to touch it. A whine escapes my frustrated boyfriend as I torture him. I do the same to the other bud with my thumb. "Allen…stop that…."
"Okay," I reply and pull away completely. He was obviously getting a lesson. His face was flushed crimson red, and his breathing was intense. I allowed all my weight to be centered on his hips and he moaned quietly. He quickly pulled me forcefully back to his chest. Instead of continuing with what I was doing, I bit each nipple, before moving to his navel. His breath caught as I slowly, ever so slowly, trailed my tongue up his stomach, chest, and neck until I had it over his lips and my eyes met his. The dark orbs were flooded with emotions, but the most prominent was lust. I break eye contact as I bring my lips to his ear, "Am I educated enough?" I bite his ear lobe hard and he gasps in pleasure.
He doesn't say anything and I put my leg between his, pressing down. He groans, "Fi…ne. You can co…me. Ng…."
I grin in satisfaction and pull away, placing a quick kiss on his cheek. Kanda exhales like he'd been holding his breath for a year. No, it was only two minutes.
Author Note: There's part one! Part two should be out soon. Also, the song was "Always" by Saliva and there is a Yullen version on YouTube!
