AlisonSky21: ~~~~~~~
AlisonSky21: Siee worked on her laps, glad to be alone.
Her head hurt, and it seemed that the water blocked out whatever stimulant
there was in the air that was making her sick.
AlisonSky21: She stroked hard, her mind focused on her
form. She needed to get this anger out of her, and she hated feeling this
way. *Hit the water* she told herself. *It won't hate you... that's what
it's here for.*
AlisonSky21: She reached the deep and kicked herself downward.
This was her twelvth dive to the bottom of the deep end. Only 12 more
to go before she finished a circut.
Shelonei: *Do I really believe all those things
I said to Myn earlier?* Hobbie wondered to himself as he approached the
pool. He really needed to do some serious thinking. *I guess I do...
that's probably why I feel so hopeless... so used.* He sighed and looked
around the pool as he entered. Empty, as usual. He tossed the weights
into the pool, then the towel on a chair as he sat down to undo his shoes.
AlisonSky21: Siee turned to kick herself up from the bottom
of the pool. Her eyes focused on the weight just as it connected to the
side of her head. Then all she saw was blackness.
Shelonei: Hobbie'd kicked off one shoe, and was
working on the other when he heard some sound coming from the pool. He
looked up, and saw a camoflague suited feminine body risen to the surface.
Limp. Face down. "Oh gods!" he kicked off the other shoe and quickly
ran to dive into the water and pull the form to the side of the pool.
"Damnit, I can't believe I was so careless...."
Shelonei: He quickly hauled the body up to the
poolside, and pulled himself up beside her. Then he saw who it was. "Oh
no, no no...." he leaned over to see if she was breathing. "C'mon Siee...."
Shelonei: He heard nothing, felt no breath against
his cheek. He leaned her head back, closed her nose, and began breathing
to her. Between breaths he almost chanted. "Come on." a breath, "you're
strong," another breath, "a survivor," and another, "Siee, c'mon!"
Shelonei: A tear fell from his eyes to splash
on her cheek as he pleaded desperately for her to pull through.
AlisonSky21: Siee's lips trembled as she came back into
conciousness. Her instinctal reaction aside, her lips gently caressed the
pair wrapped around hers.
Shelonei: The breath became a gentle kiss, and
he pulled back, then pulled her up and gathered her to himself to hug her,
"Gods Siee, are you alright? I thought I'd killed you, I'm so sorry, please
please forgive me," he seemingly babbled as he hugged her.
Shelonei: This incident had scared him sithless.
AlisonSky21: She coughed, water coming out of her mouth.
"What happened?"
Shelonei: He pulled back, chagrinned. "I thought
I was alone here, and tossed my weights into the pool before heading to
change..." he looked at his drenched clothing, "Which I never did do.
I'm so sorry."
AlisonSky21: She raised a hand to her head and felt the
bump. "You like doing things to my head, don't you?"
Shelonei: "Never on purpose," He paused and
thought a moment, then looked up; concern in his eyes. "Are you dizzy
at all? Feel nauseaus?" he asked, hoping he hadn't given her a concussion.
AlisonSky21: "lightheaded... everything is kinda fuzzy..."
Shelonei: He stood in his soggy sock feet, and
picked her up to cradle her in his arms. "I'm taking you to the Med-bay."
AlisonSky21: "I don't want to go to med bay again..." she
whined.
Shelonei: He started carefully picking his way
to the door, being careful not to slip. "You could have a concussion,
Siee...." he tried to persuade her.
AlisonSky21: "Can't you just kiss it and make it better?"
she whines in a little girl voice.
Shelonei: Something strange happened in his heart
when she said that. He looked at her curiously, "That's a rather odd remedy
for a concussion," he tried on a smile for her so she would not be angry
with his words.
AlisonSky21: "Mom used to do it and it worked every time..."
she sniffled.
Shelonei: He couldn't resist the doe-eyes she'd
turned on him, the plaintive tone in her voice. "Where does it hurt?"
he asked softly.
AlisonSky21: "Everywhere," she groaned.
Shelonei: "Here?" he asked as he kissed her
forehead.
Shelonei: He moved to sit in a chair, setting
her gently in his lap. What he was doing, he did not know.... he just....didn't
know.
AlisonSky21: "Lower," she sniffled.
Shelonei: He kissed her closed eyes, "There?"
he asked quietly.
AlisonSky21: "Closer." She wiggled in Hobbie's lap, trying
to get comfortable.
Shelonei: He supported her back with one arm,
resting his other hand across her lap. He kissed her nose, and with a small
smile asked, "There?"
AlisonSky21: "Almost..." she whispered, a husky note to
her voice.
Shelonei: "How about here?" his voice barely
a whisper as he moved his free hand to cradle her cheek as he claimed her
mouth with his own.
AlisonSky21: Her lips answered him as they caressed his,
her arms wrapping around his neck. She shifted her weight, bringing her
body to straddle his lap as so she could support herself against him better.
Shelonei: His left hand splayed against her
bare back as he brushed his right thumb against her cheek before cradling
her head as he kissed her. Somewhere in his mind, he knew he should pull
away, that this should be wrong.... but his mind was locked away behind
the strange feeling in his heart that said it was okay.
AlisonSky21: Siee pressed her body closer, deepening the
kiss. Her mind screamed at her, but she blocked it out. Who cared that
he was almost twice her age and her brother's best friend. He was here now
and responding.
Shelonei: He held her tightly against himself
as they kissed. And oh, how they kissed. His fingers tangled in her hair.
His tongue danced
skillfully with her own as it explored the warm cavern of her mouth
AlisonSky21: Siee started to do un-Siee'ish things with
her tongue in Hobbie's mouth.
Shelonei: After quite some time, the need for
air finally broke them apart. Hobbie nuzzled her shoulder slightly and
sighed as he held her. "Siee," he breathed her name quietly. "What are
we doing?"
AlisonSky21: "I think it's called making out," she replied
with a smile.
Shelonei: He pulled back to look at her, "You
*do* know I'm a dead man," he raised an eyebrow.
Shelonei: "An *old* dead man...."
AlisonSky21: "Then I guess I'll have to find a Jedi to revive
you..." she joked, kissing Hobbie's neck.
Shelonei: "I don't need a Jedi to revive me,"
he whispered as he kissed her neck, trailing kisses up to her chin, "You're
doing a good enough job yourself." Before she could reply, he captured her
mouth with his own, once again.
AlisonSky21: Siee whimpered, then pulled herself closer,
wanting to feel everything.
Shelonei: Fearlessly, eagerly, he plundered her
mouth, reveling in the feel of her in his arms as he did so. The protesting
part of his mind was rudely shoved down a turbolift for its insolence.
AlisonSky21: At that moment, who should arrive but Wes,
who was going to come and keep his best friend company while he was in a
depressed state. He stopped suddenly, seeing that he wasn't the first one.
His jaw and bag dropped to the floor.
Shelonei: Hobbie did not hear him, lost as he
was in the world that was Siee.
AlisonSky21: Redness filled his vision, and Wes let out
a loud growl and turned to punch his fist into the wall of the pool.
AlisonSky21: Siee heard the familiar sound of her brother's
angry howl. She broke off and looked at him quickly. "Oh sith..."
Shelonei: Hobbie looked in the same direction,
then took a deep breath as his eyes widened to silver-credits. He looked
back to Siee as he stood, setting her down in the chair. "Better start thinking
about finding that Jedi," he told her before he turned to face the rage
of a rancor that was her older brother.
AlisonSky21: Wes breathed in and out, trying to find some
meaning. Finally he raised his bloody broken fist, making his finger point
at Hobbie. "I can't believe this. I can't sithin believe this. My best
buddy and my baby sister! This is un sithin believeable!"
Shelonei: Hobbie said nothing, knowing anything
he could possibly say would only make things worse.
Shelonei: *He's right... this is rather unbelievable....
I can hardly believe what happening myself* Hobbie thought to himself.
AlisonSky21: Siee jumped up and held her hands out. "Wes,
relax, please..."
AlisonSky21: "Stay out of this Siee," Wes growled.
Shelonei: Hobbie moved to stand before Wes, and
looked at him. He let his expression and eyes speak for him, being a man
of few words *most* of the time. He had that stubborn look, the one that
said 'you
can do anything you like, but it won't change a thing'. The one that anyone
would cross only by sustaining heavy damage.
AlisonSky21: Wes growled in anger and charged Hobbie, carrying
both of them into the deep end of the pool.
Shelonei: Hobbie was prepared and took a deep
breath as they splashed beneath the surface. He then pushed Wes away and
kicked up to take another breath before he was yanked beneath the surface
again.
AlisonSky21: "WES!" Siee shouted, as she watched from the
side of the pool. "STOP IT!
AlisonSky21: Wes grabbed onto Hobbie, holding his head under
his arm as he tried to squeeze it. His lungs hurt from not having air but
he didn't care.
Shelonei: Hobbie's face began to turn red from
lack of blood flow. He tried to pull Wes' arm from around his neck as he
attempted to kick them to the surface. Wes didn't know what he was doing,
that Hobbie knew, but he also knew that they'd both drown if this didn't
stop soon.
AlisonSky21: "Damnit Wes!" She growled and dived into the
water. Her head still hurt her and she latched onto his back. ~*LET HIM
GO*~ she screamed in her mind at him.
AlisonSky21: Wes blinked. Did he just hear Siee in his
head? He blinked and his vision cleared. he quickly kicked him, her and
Hobbie to the surface.
Shelonei: Hobbie finally slipped from his grasp
and gasped for air as he quickly swam to the edge of the pool. He held
it with one hand, while rubbing at his neck with the other, and eyed Wes
with a slightly wounded expression.
Shelonei: He had yet to speak a word to his best
friend.
AlisonSky21: Wes blinked at his senses returned. He looked
at Siee. "What just happened?" He winced as he flexed his, once again,
broken hand
Shelonei: "I told you that you'd try to kill
me, Wes."
Shelonei: Surprisingly enough, Hobbie remembered
the drunken conversation he'd had with his friend two nights earlier.
