The courier is a White Male with stunning Blue eyes and Chestnut brown Hair. He is in his Early twenties and He is named Paul.
Chapter One: Road to Novac.
The Early morning sun crept in through the windows and partially destroyed curtains.
Paul rubbed his eyes and got out of bed. He went into the bathroom and stood over the sink, he picked up a water bucket and used it to wash off his face.
Paul checked to see what time it was on his Pip-boy 3000A. The time read 06:00 Am.
He got dressed in his NCR Mantle Armor that he collected from one of the dead bodies at Ranger Station Charlie. He then threw his duffel bag over his shoulder and left the room.
He went over to Boone's room and Knocked on the door and was greeted by Boone wearing his iconic 1st Recon Beret.
"Hey Boone I was gonna head up to goodsprings and I was wondering if you wanted to head along with me?" Paul asked.
"Sorry kid but I've got other matters to attend to here in Novac." Boone Said Bluntly.
" Ok I will see you around." Paul said.
"See ya." Boone then closed the door.
Paul proceeded along the 2 hour walk to goodsprings. When he arrived he went into the prospector saloon and was immediately greeted by Sunny Smiles giving him a big hug. Paul thought Sunny was a very cute girl since the day he met her.
" I missed you so much Paul." Sunny Said as she slowly let go of him. Sunny had always had a bit of a crush on Paul and always wanted to travel with him but he had always been traveling with someone else.
" Sunny, I was wondering if maybe you wanted to go with me to Boulder city and eventually New Vegas?" Paul asked calmly.
She could not believe what she was hearing and she instantly had a big smile on her face and she nodded her head yes.
"Also where is Cheyanne?" Paul asked.
Sunny's smile washed away in an instant and she turned pale.
" Caesar's Legion." She said, pain in her voice.
" I'm sorry to hear that." Paul replied.
Her and Paul then left and by the time they were at Primm they were laughing and joking around.
On their way back to Novac, near Nipton, they were ambushed by some Vipers and Sunny had been hit in the arm.
Her and Paul were hiding behind two old refrigerators turned on their sides and stacked on top of one another. Paul threw a grenade over the fridges and pulled Sunny close and Shielded her in case the blast was too close.
The grenade went off about 50 feet away from them and the Vipers were dead except for the leader of this group. The courier took aim with his trusty Cowboy repeater and fired, killing the Viper.
He then turned his attention to Sunny who's upper left arm was covered in blood. Paul reached into his bag and pulled out a stim and a bandage. "Hang on, this is gonna hurt." He said. Sunny Braced herself as the needle of the Stimpack was inserted into her arm and the Chemicals were dispensed. "Fuck." She said under her breath as her whole arm was in pain.
" I'm gonna need you to either roll up your sleeve or take your shirt off so I can bandage it." Paul said.
Sunny slowly took off her shirt and blushed slightly because she was only wearing a thin bra and her ahem… cleavage was by no means small. Paul was not focused on checking out her breasts though he kind of wanted to, instead he was focussed on patching her up. He saw the blush on her face and smiled to himself.
Paul applied the bandage and tied it off before handing sunny back her shirt. They continued along their walk to Novac but they stayed a lot closer to each other out of concern of being jumped again.
Once they got back to Novac they stopped at the hotel that the Courier now owned. He was going to let Sunny have her own room but every room was taken and there was no extra room in town. Paul opened up the door to his room and stepped aside to let Sunny in, she immediately sat down on the bed and held her arm in the place where she was shot.
Paul closed the door and sat down next to her. "When do you want to start moving again?" Sunny asked. "Well from what we just went through out there today is going to be scorching hot but tomorrow It is going to be overcast and it will be cooler." Paul responded.
" Ok but what about me finding a place to sleep because I don't exactly think it would be appropriate for us to… you know." She turned Nuka Cola Corp Red.
Paul then thought about it for a moment. " I understand that Sunny but also you know how cold it gets here at night besides it's not like this place has heating." He said calmly.
Sunny giggled a little at his attempt at a joke. "Ok I guess you're ri— Paul was cut off from speaking by the sound of automatic gunfire outside. " Sunny Stay down." He said quietly as he pushed himself off the bed and snuck over to the window to see what was happening.
Outside he saw about 10 viper gang members. He motioned for Sunny to toss him his bag and she did. He opened it and took out his NCR service rifle and his standard Issue NCR hat. Paul was not an official NCR soldier but he considered himself to be one of them.
He noticed Boone atop the stairs of the Dinosaur entryway, he motioned for him to move on his mark. Boone shook his head yes and took aim from his hidden spot. One of the vipers spoke up. "To Mr. Courier Six, we heard about what you did to our friend George and now we are here to do that to you. Get out here now and no one gets hurt, refuse and everyone here including you dies."
Paul opened the window and the room was flooded by the outside heat. Paul went into V.A.T.S. He targeted 3 of them and fired his first shot. It went straight for The leader's head and Hit. The second one went straight for the guy next to him and missed the main target but hit the guy behind him. He squeezed off his third shot and directly hit the guy in the chest.
Boone followed this up by lining up his shot and firing, the bullet taking out three in one go. Paul took care of two while Boone got the other two. " Stay Here." Paul said to Sunny. He closed the window and went outside. Boone switched to his 10mm pistol and went with Paul as they searched around the outskirts of town. They returned ten minutes later after finding nothing.
Paul went into his room and sat down next to Sunny. She leaned her head against his shoulder. "Thank you for protecting me today." She said with a smile on her face. Paul then put an arm around her shoulders, being careful not to touch the wound from earlier. Paul opened his bag and handed her a Sunset Sarsaparilla. She opened it and Smiled when she saw that she got a Star Cap. "No fair." Paul said playfully and Sunny giggled.
They spent the next couple of hours talking and sharing stories and reading old books that survived the war. By the time dinner rolled around Sunny had Just finished reading a book called Dune.
" What's that you're reading?" Paul asked. (Also I just realized the coincidence that he is called Paul and the main character of Dune is Paul Atreides)
" It's a book called Dune. It's a sci-fi book about this planet called Arrakis and about how the Noble house Atreides who rule over Arrakis are betrayed and killed off except for The leader's Son and wife. The Natives of the planet think that the Son and his Mom are their saviors and want them to help."
" Interesting." He said. "What's the main Character's name?"
" Paul Atreides."
Paul smiled a Little. He opened up his duffel bag and took out a thing of roasted rad scorpion. He offered some to Sunny but she politely declined and opted for what she had brought, Cram. They both enjoyed their meals in relative silence. By the time they finished the sun was completely set.
Paul took off his boots and leaned back on the bed, which was surprisingly comfortable for surviving a nuclear war. Sunny did the same and laid on her right side to avoid her left arm hurting. Paul looked over at her and smiled, he then gently brushed some hair out of her face and he tucked it behind her ear.
They both blushed and moved slightly closer. Eventually after what seemed like an eternity of looking into each other's eyes they kissed. The second Paul felt his lips touch her's he instantly relaxed and they both melted into the kiss. He turned on his side and continued to kiss her, he also placed a hand on her cheek.
They finally broke apart for air. "That was amazing." He whispered. Sunny was just speechless. "Well what did you think?" He asked.
" I think I need more kisses," Sunny said. She then closed her eyes and leaned back in.
This kiss was slow and gentle like the one they just shared but at the same time it was much sweeter.
Paul then rolled onto his back and pulled Sunny onto his chest. She snuggled into him and he placed an arm around her waist and he rested his other hand on her cheek. He gently rubbed her back and scratched her neck. Sunny let out some adorable noises as a result. Her hair from her messy ponytail was practically in his eyes but he did not care.
" Sunny, your hair smells amazing." He said.
Sunny blushed and whispered, "Thank You Paul." She shivered slightly as the room got colder due to the sun being down.
Paul pulled a blanket over them and held her tightly. Sunny relaxed completely and almost drifted off to sleep multiple times but kept herself awake. She then scooted up a little so she was hovering above Paul's face. She lowered herself down and they both kissed passionately.
Once they were done kissing she moved back and snuggled back into place. Sunny then sat up slightly and undid her ponytail letting her tabby cat orange hair flow freely.
" Wow, you look really pretty when you let your hair down," He remarked.
She smiled and then kissed his cheek before laying back down on his chest.
Paul placed his hand on the back of her head and gently scratched. She let out a soft moan and blushed out of embarrassment. Paul continued to scratch her head gently and only stopped when he realized that she must have fallen asleep on his chest. He turned out the light and checked the time. 10:00 Pm
