Cloe and Ved's room: Morning

[_cloe_]

Cloe had slept peacefully in Ved's arms, happy that he hadn't been too upset about the night before. She opened her eyes and blinked a few times, trying to focus her eyes. She rolled over slowly and loved at Ved, Tracing his chest as he slept soundly. She kissed him gently. "Good morning

[ved]

After the initial shock of bedtime, Ved had relaxed against the warm feeling of Cloe's body and drifted off to sleep. His dreams had been a bit tortured, frustrating dreams where he was a Techno again, and every time he tried to chase down a virt, they had a TGun and would turn and shoot at him. "Stinkin virts," he mumbled as someone touched his chest, and in his half dream state he looked down to see a virt trying to take his uniform. "Stop," he pushed the hand away and woke up, looking around, confused

[_cloe_]

Cloe was slightly taken back as he pushed her hand away. Was he upset about last night? As he opened his eyes, looking rather confused, Cloe understood that it must have just been a dream. She made a questioning look. Did he not remember? Maybe it was best not to bring it up then. If he didn't want to talk about it, than neither did she.

She shrugged. "Probably just hanging around. I need to talk to Salene about....something" She gave him a smile. "And you? Maybe we can go for a walk?"

[ved]

"Yeah yeah, sounds, great," it came out forced, hard to say, he was having a hard time sounding enthusiastic about anything Cloe said, what if she changed her mind later? "I'm gonna work on my lab, check on things. I heard there's gonna be a trial today since they caught that stinkin virt kid, so maybe I'll check that out too, think they'd mind if we watched?"

Ved shifted his position, rolling onto his side, facing Cloe, she was really pretty, he couldn't stay mad for long, and his eyes trailed down to the gown she was wearing, looking at how it sat slightly askew on her chest. His right hand folded between them and fiddled with the edging, his left arm wrapping around her in a hug, saying nothing.

[_cloe_]

Ved didn't sound happy, and Cloe felt really bad. She had ruined everything. Things were going so well and she had to have things her way. She sighed. "Oh ya, the trial. They should, I mean, we've had them before. I was on the jury for one." She remembered. It was about Bray and whether or not was stealing all the water.

Cloe smiled as Ved shifted and began to play with her shirt. Part of her wanted to take it right off, to make up for the night before. She felt so safe with him. His arm wrapped around her. This was surely the best thing.

[ved]

"Yeah? The jury? That's pretty sweet, wonder if they'd let me," he pondered this groggily for a minute than snorted a half laugh, "Nah, cause they all know my vote would be to fry the virt no matter what," and it was true. Ved didn't really care, "Doesn't matter, long as I get to watch, I guess that's a perk of bein a Mall Rat for sure," he half shrugged, though they hadn't ever had a trial before, so how could he know?

His left hand rubbed her back, then he simply made a moved and stuck his hand under the back of her top, feeling the warm skin of her back. Was that against her whole, no sex tonight thing? Did this morning count? Ved was kind of not in the mood now, but he was a boy, it wouldn't take much to change his mind. Only, now he was uncertain about it, cause he didn't want to make a wrong move and have her go all hormonal female on him and start screaming or throwing things. Placing his hand flat against her back, he simply looked at her and waited for a reaction.

[_cloe_]

Cloe rested against him, smiling as his hand rubbed her back gently. She did love him. She really did. As he slid his hand up her back, Cloe couldn't help but squirm a little. HIs hand was cold against her warm back. She moved closer to him, tangling her legs in his and smiling to herself. She didn't want to get up. She didn't want to go to the trial or breakfast. She just wanted to stay like this.

She realized that something had happened last night. Not between her and Ved, but someone had screamed and something happened on the stairs. She probably should find out about that. She turned over to face Ved, taking his left hand in her own and kissing it. "I'm so lucky."

[ved]

The hand under the back of her shirt had been the right move after all, she'd pulled away from it a little and pressed more into him, tangling up in his legs and telling him she was so lucky. He just gave her a silly look, raising an eyebrow, "Oh really? How do you figure?"

He pushed his hand against her back, feeling the warmth spread through it from her back, "Say, you're kinda warm, you feelin ok?" Could she really get that hot just from sleeping? Eww, she better not be getting sick, the last thing he wanted was to catch some dirty virt cold and die or something. He tried as hard as he could to keep a soft, loving, morning cuddles kind of face, but it was really hard with the concern he was feeling over catching something deadly.

[_cloe_]

Cloe smiled. There were so many ways she was lucky. "Well, first off, I have you. I have a wonderfull home. Great friends. And I guess I can say you again. Hell, You add atleast 4 reasons to why I'm lucky." Cloe titlted her head and shrugged. "I love you so much."

Cloe lifted her eyebrows. Wamr. Was she getting sick? She felt fine. But maybe she was just beginning to get sick. "Do I look sick?" She felt her own head for a fever. "I hope not. I don't want to be sick." She whined lightly. "Can we just stay here today?"

[ved]

His nose wrinkled as she got all mushy, but he couldn't deny he liked it, and for a moment he let himself enjoy it and be mushy back. Not that he'd say anything back about it, but he smiled anyway. He brought his hand up and felt her forehead, it felt normal temperature too, so maybe her back had just been really hot. He felt a wave of relief pass through him as he realized his hand had probably been cold, that would explain why she'd pulled away from it initially.

He was so relieved, he was almost willing to agree to anything she asked right now. "Sure," he answered easily, shrugging his left shoulder, "But I gotta get up and check on the plants and stuff, gotta turn on their lamps," he was a little guilty when he said it, "Besides, what happened to our walk? And going to the trial?"

[_cloe_]

Cloe pouted. True, the trial was important and she wanted to go for a walk, but right now, she was in a warm bed with her boyfriend, she didn't want to get up and face the harsh world. "I know, and we can do that," She rubbed her legs against his and streched her arms above her head. "But right now, I'm far too happy to go get up." She relaxed her ams traced Ved's bare chest with her left pointer finger.

Cloe's finger traced up to his collar bone and then to his lips, tracing them. She moved in closer, staring into his eyes for a moment before gently kissing him before licking his bottom lip slightly to let him know how much she loved him. As she pulled away, she smiled. "Thank you for understanding...about last night."

[ved]

Cloe was tracing her finger across his fine body hair, tickling him, actually doing more than tickling him, but he was reluctant to give into any other feelings. Even if she was kissing him and licking his lip like that, gah. "Oh, yeah sure, no problem doll. I, I do love you, you know that right? Though," his eyes darkened for a minute, "That was kind of a mean trick to play. I mean, all day you talk about panties and me getting into them at the end of the day, and then you go and ask something like that. But I did it, cause I do love you. Are you gonna test me more like this, or have I passed?"

Ved didn't mean to sound annoyed, he didn't mean to make it all sound so tragic and horrifying and the end of the world, but he'd gone to sleep frustrated. It was all just coming out now was all, he hoped Cloe understood how he meant it really.

[_cloe_]

Cloe smiled. SHe knew he loved her, he just didn't say it very much, it was part of that Techno in him. It was special when he said it because she knew that he meant it with all his heart. "I know. And I love you." She listened intently as he explained how last night was a mean trick and her heart sunk a bit. She couldn't really explain it, could she? Not without him exploding. She needed to talk to Salene first. She had every intention of doing things with him last night, but she just...had a feeling.

She simply nodded. "Ya, you passed. Don't...don't worry about it." She looked up at him with a small smile. She was clearly uncomfortable, but she didn't want to ruin this moment. Cloe nuzzled into him and closed her eyes, just enjoying his scent, his warmth. She was just so happy to have him there.
