The Drop of Joy; That one chick... Zlex ^.^

Ricor just hugged her tightly against him, he didn’t want to let go, and he was near tears. She probably would love him for a long time, or at least not unless she was helped along, but why would she think that made her less of a person. No that was just silly she would never be less of a person to him, he loved her with all his heart. Less of a person was just silly, for starters in a very joking manner she couldn’t be less of a ‘person’ she was alien, and second in all seriousness she was perfect just the way she was.

”I would never think any less of you Zlex, never in my life.”

He looked at her in the eyes. Thinking about how best to word his next question, he wanted to see if she even felt love towards him in any form, rather or not it was true human love.

”Zlex how do you feel about me?”

That was as bluntly as he could put it without saying do you love me, and even then she wouldn’t know what to say cause she didn’t understand the word love.

She slowly allowed her violet eyes to open again. He had said that he would never think any less of her. Her gaze was fixed to the point that she dared not blink. She was thinking with everything that she had. He wouldn't think any less of her....He wouldn't...yet, would that change depending on what she answered? Regardless of wether it would or wouldn't, she had to tell the truth. How did she feel about Ricor? To that, even Zlex had to piece together.

"I..." A bit of hesitation was evident in her quivering voice. Was she scared? No, that was a very slim possibility. The silence was so haunting and superior. The only sound was that of Zlex's voice. It seemed to mock her as she began to cite from her thoughts exactly how she felt for him. It wasn't like she didn't feel strongly for him...it was just....she didn't know which words to use that would make her statements effective.

"It started as a really binding friendship." She murmured in reference to the feelings from past to present. "And I guess, because we didn't see each other for a long while...it transformed into a strange attachment....As if you were a drug and I needed another hit. Except....it became....another type of attachment....like, I can't live if you left me for a moment....Even for a moment. I don't even want you to give me room to breathe." She sighed as her strange confessions poured out of her. It was the first time that she was able to actually connect the dots. And even if her words sounded funny, she was proud that she could come up with similies and metaphors point blank. Now she waited...dreaded...what Ricor would make of it all. She, obviously, couldn't make anything out of it. The transitions had taken place so fast and she wasn't able to grasp the meaning of it. It was sort of pathetic the way she would never be able to understand what she already knew...

Ricor let out a sigh of happiness as he murmured the words ‘She does love me.’ Under his breath. He just wanted to kiss her and tell her how much he was in love with her, but decided against it thinking it just might upset her even more that she couldn’t explain the way he was acting, instead he just wrapped his arms around her waist and clasped his hands together and leaned back until they were both floating on the water. She was on top of him and he just looked up at her.

”Your so wonderful Zlex.”

He kissed her lightly on the lips before leaning his head back as they floated around the water just smiling looking up into her eyes, his eyes were filled with joy like nothing could stop his happiness now. It just made him want to cry with joy.

White strands shimmering like crystal flowed into the water. Zlex's bright eyes seemed to glow from the contrast of her pale soft skin. The expression on her face was one that would suggest being surprised and yet it seemed as if she were mildly satisfied with herself. Still, she wasn't sure why Ricor hadn't said anything about what she had said. Had she said the right thing?

"And why would you say that?" She asked. She never really considered herself wonderful. In fact, that was the first time she had heard her name in the same sentence with that word at all. Wonderful....That's what he had said about her. But why? She hadn't done anything...or at least, she didn't think that she had.

"If anyone is wonderful it would be you, Ricor." Zlex commented with a light smile. Yes, Ricor was wonderful. He deserved such a title. No, he was more than wonderful...but what word was greater than that? She didn't bother searching for one. She had already thought enough about great words to put together. She almost felt as if she had said too much.

The hardest thing about feeling the way she did was not knowing where it began and how it would end. She didn't think Ricor would ever hurt her, and even if he did, she wouldn't mind. If one more person had to hurt her she hoped it would be Ricor and not some other random jerk. Ricor was the only one that she'd ever let get close to her....she couldn't allow anyone else in....it already hurt so much...

Ricor couldn’t help but smile at her; she was just too cute and beautiful to be around him. She didn’t know that what she had described was love, in a nutshell at least what he understood about it. He wanted to tell her but he wasn’t sure that she would understand, but something inside him egged himself on.

”Zlex… You may not understand it now, but you love me I think… Rather or not you understand why or how, I think you do… That is why you are so wonderful.”

Ricor smiled as he pressed his lips against hers not wanting to break away from her embrace nor her lips. He just continued to hold her and kiss her, his inner spirit beaming with joy. He blinked once trying to decide rather to break the kiss or not but decided that if the kiss would break. She would be the one to break it. He just smiled at the thought and closed his eyes enjoying every moment of the kiss like a year of his life.

And, indeed, Zlex broke the kiss softly. For some odd reason, this moment reminded her of Alex...Alex, the one she'd pay to forget. All she could do was give a weak and unsure smile. This was Ricor, not Alex. Alex should have never touched her...Never tortured her the way he had. Was that the reason she was so unsure of returning? But in this time, these thoughts were out of place and awkward. She hardly noticed that she thought so deeply about such things.

"You think I love you?" Zlex questioned with a touch of amusement in her voice. So, love made one wonderful? Is that what she was missing all these years of fighting to survive? How did friendship turn into love so fast and so uncalculated? The belief that everything could be timed and controlled seemed false now. Everything that she'd learned about human emotions seemed to become only a skeleton of how it actually was.

She gazed into his eyes as if she were trying to read him. Her gaze fell for a moment before rising again. Her smile was lighter; much warmer than before. "Thanks..." She murmured. He'd done her a favor. A big favor that perhaps he wouldn't understand...

Ricor could do nothing but raise a curious eyebrow, how had he helped her was completely beyond him. If anything she had helped him in so many ways that she would never understand, but her help him? He blinked several times as she thanked him. He put his hand on her shoulder and his other hand on her back rubbing her back and shoulder softly.

”Why are you thanking me, I should be the one thanking you.”

Ricor blinked at her with a smile on his face. Wondering what she meant, she had givin him someone to love, something to live for besides Onyx, such was the most wonderful thing he had ever felt in the world. She would never fully understand how much she had done for him.

Zlex let out a small gentle laugh. He should thank her? That was quite amusing. No, she was sure that more than anything he deserved the thanks.

"Oh, Ricor. You give me more credit than I'm worth." She joked as she shook her head. Why was it that Ricor always said that kind of stuff to her? She tilted her head.

"So what are you thanking me for?" She asked curiously. Afterall, she hadn't done much of anything...It was he that had comforted her when she went crying over matter that wasn't in her own hands. She expected him to say something that she couldn't argue against. He was good for that; making her truly feel as if she were great. Deep down inside, she thought of herself equal to, if not less, than everyone else. All this time, her people thought they were so superior to every race....but now it was clear that the overly arrogant aliens were...well...ignorant to a very high extent. Deep down inside...she thought she was the same...

Ricor couldn’t find any better way to prove how much better he was feeling having her back in his life than to prove it using something that could be increased by the feeling. He closed his eyes as his breathing started to hasten as he stood up holding her in his arms he walked over to the edge and set her down on the edge of the springs and let go of her reluctantly and walked backwards into the center of the pool. His eyes still closed he looked up at her.

”Rather than argue why you make me better than I already am, why don’t I prove it?”

Ricor lifted his arms to a right angle with his body and then smiled as he opened his eyes and they were a very light blue color they had been a darker blue before. He slammed his hands against his side as he disappeared. When he reappeared he was right above the center of the pool and then he faded out again. When he reappeared this time he was kneeling on the water in front of her.

”Oh Zlex, the feeling that you give me allows me not only to move but to do this…”

Ricor smiled as he started to fade out but he was still slightly visible, to her he started to glow red. What was really happening on a slow level was he was moving his body increased from side to side, the new spur of emotions he was feeling gave him a reason to live and move. The Friction started to burn against his skin causing his skin to turn red but then he disappeared and reappeared 10 feet back. When he landed on the opposite edge, the water all over the hot springs flew straight up in a waterfall type flow. The water had so much momentum from his speed that it continued to move up for about 12 seconds then it all feel back in and Ricor just jumped onto the water and walked till he was in front of Zlex.

”Without you I would never be able to move that fast.”

It was very clear that Zlex loved the entertainment. Her brilliant violet eyes gazed into Ricor's and a heartwarming smile formed on her light lips. She ran a hand through her white hair before leaning toward Ricor.

"Without you....I wouldn't be able to move at all." She murmured as she threw her arms around Ricor's neck. Human emotions were almost sickening. They always meant one thing but sounded like another. The world of humans would always be a mystery to her....her worst nightmare come true....yet, she no longer cared.

"I wish I could tell you that my arrows move faster in the air when I'm with you, or that it strikes twice as hard....but I don't have much control over such things. All I can say is that you've brought within me a greater peace through something I could never know." And she left it at that. She wasn't going to tell him exactly how he had helped her or why she had thanked him. She'd rather tap the subject momentarily before forgetting it. That's just the way she was; almost like a mystery that would never be solved...

Ricor started to fall into the water as Zlex wrapped her arms around his neck causing him to sink. But before he lost all the momentum of the water tension he wrapped his arms around her and pressed his lips firmly against hers falling into the water. Before his nose was submerged he had taken a breath and blew the oxygen into her and just stood there underwater staring at her with his eyes, ruminating in the watery glow. He smiled examining the beauty that was Zlex while they were underwater before popping them back up above water.

”It is rather hard to walk on water with extra weight silly.”

He said kissing her forehead and leaning back to look at her face again with a smile in his lips. As he began moving his hands to the back of his head he accidentally slid his hand across the clip of her top piece of her swimsuit, and in one smooth motion pulled her entire top piece of her right shoulder so that it was now only hanging by the elbow of her left arm completely revealing her breasts. Ricor’s eyes grew large as he stared at them but then turned around and covered his eyes his breathing now panicy.

”Oh my God, Im so sorry that was a complete accident. Please don’t hurt me.”

(ooc: *bangs head into wall* I can't believe you actually did it! Kill him Kill him!)

Sheer instinct brought her arms up to cover her exposure. Her face flushed bright red and her wet white hair flung over her shoulder from her motion. Zlex could feel the heat in her face and she, too, turned opposite from Ricor. She took in a couple of deep breaths as she went over in her mind exactly how she was going to cope with this at the moment.

"If you really wanted to get that up close and personal, all you had to do was ask." She joked as she looked behind her at Ricor's back. She wasn't mad at him at all...it just took her by surprise. She hadn't yet reclosed her clip because, quite frankly, she wasn't used to these kind of things happening and she was thinking more about the afterward effect of all of this. Still, though, her arms were clasped over her chest in a protective manner. She sighed as she shook her head and gave a little laugh.

"Well, that was quite an excitement now wasn't it?" Another joke. That's all she could think of doing. She was more sympathetic to Ricor than herself...Afterall, he seemed to feel really bad about this change of events....

Ricor sighed in relief he was rather scared that she would be more offended than he was, but all she was doing was making jokes. He smiled as he reached behind him to pat her back as she continued to make her joke. But as he did he grabbed the still hanging piece and as he pulled his arm back to his side he pulled off the rest of it with him and as he looked down in his hand he saw the piece hanging from it and completely shut down. His eyes grew wide as he slowly came to the realization of what Zlex must be like right now, cause if he had the whole thing in his hand. That meant that…

”I’m Sorry”

He dropped the piece as it fell into water and slowly sank to the bottom as he brought his hands to his eyes. What had he done, he had completely embarrassed her, and he let a couple tears of shame slip past his eyes. He fell down into the waters as he swam to the edge of the springs hopped out and ran to the corner of the room and pulled his knees to his chest and buried his bright red face into his knees.

"I'm such a idiot."

(And just when I thought it couldn't get aaannnnnyyyy worse >_<)

The eyes of the alien widened greatly as she whirled even further away with her arms covering her. She sank herself into the water until only her neck and head were above.

She had watched Ricor as he escaped the pool and went into a corner. She patted her hair back as she went over in her head what had just happened. Hey, everyone was clumsy once in a while...Ricor shouldn't feel bad about that. She wasn't sure exactly what to do in this moment between embarrassment, shock, and sympathy. So, she got out of the pool also and walked over to her clothes. She dried herself off and placed her white tank top on to cover her indecent exposure. Her wet matted hair wet the back of her shirt, yet, that seemed not to matter.

Zlex made her way over to Ricor and sat down beside him. "Hey, don't feel bad...It was an accident afterall." She stated trying to make the matter better. She patted his back and gave off a small smile....

Ricor looked up a little his eyes were full of tears from crying at how stupid he had been. He sat up and threw his arms around Zlex’s neck. He kissed her softly on the cheek. He loved her so much she was way to forgiving. But he stood up bring her with him and for brief second he disappeared but when he reappeared he was standing up.

”After I get dressed would you like to accompany me to the courtyard?”

He smiled as he dropped all the clothes except his blue shirt, which he put on and then he pulled up his trench coat, which he wrapped over his body and buttoned up. Sliding on his belt he latched it across his stomach with his 2 swords in it. He looked at Zlex as he threw his hair back and then forward bringing it to a spike in the front of his head.

”Perhaps you should get dressed into something warmer, it is autumn after all and then you can meet me at the courtyard.”

What kind of question was that? Of course she would! She shook her head lightly with a smile upon her frail lips.

"I'll meet you at the courtyard....but I can't promise that I'll be wearing anything thicker than what I've brought now. Yet, I must admit that I will have to change into something a bit...." She looked down at her shirt before continuing, "a bit dryer." She smiled as she parted from him to retrieve her bow and arrows. Adjusting it on her shoulder, she slid her white skirt on and her soft manmade shoes.

"I'll see you there, then." She concluded as she retied her hair with a white shimmering ribbon. She took a few steps toward the exit before turning back around. "Until we meet." And with that, she walked out of the door on her way to get ready...
