He shrugged. "I just want to help." *** She laughed slightly, but she sounded of the verge of crying. "So sexy. Are you still hurt bad? Or is it mostly healed..?"
She nodded slowly, standing up and kissing him gently. "Then I'll make sure you do." * * * "I managed to walk here," he said with a shrug, lifting his shirt slightly to reveal large, semi-healed stitches across his abdomen.
He held her hands. "Thank you." *** She frowned, looking up at him and taking his face in her hands, kissing him. "I thought you were dead."
She looked up at him with a frown before sighing, gesturing with her head. "C'mon. We need parts." * * * He kissed her back, his whole body relaxing with the action. "I know. Aisling told me. I'm sorry."
He nodded, going to follow. "Okay." *** She brushed his hair back. "It's okay. I'm so glad you're here."
(Zoop?) *** He leaned into her touch, slipping his arms around her waist. “Me too. I missed you terribly.
They arrived down in the city and Lucy’s eyes drifted along the horizon before stopping suddenly. “Jaz...? Is that...?” *** “I’m pretty tired,” he admitted slowly. “But I can sleep at my place, if you want to go do other stuff.”
She pointed at Blaise’s entrance. “Look!” *** Ellis gave her a small smile, kissing her forehead. “Okay.”
He pursed his lips before his eyes widened. "Ellis?!" He immediately started over, going to apologize. *** She seemed excited that he was back, but tried to act cool and brush it off. "Is that Jaz coming over?"
Ellis looked over his shoulder curiously. “Oh, hey, Jaz!” he said brightly. “I’m really glad you made it back!”
Jaz folded his hands, looking nervous. "I'm so sorry, Ellis. I-I shouldn't have left you back there.. I should have helped you."
He looked confused, tilting his head with a small frown. "I told you to leave, Jaz," he said. "I would have been angry if you disobeyed."
He gave Jaz a small smile, patting his shoulder. "Aisling is extremely protective of me," he said gently. "I appreciate her loyalty, but it also makes her extremely... unpleasant if she feels that something bad has happened to be. You saw here when Emerson tried to exile me. It's just how she gets. Please don't worry. You did the right thing."
He gave him a small smile before turning back to Blaise, kissing her cheek gently. "If you don't mind, though, I'm pretty tired, and I think Blaise is as well, so we're going to try to get some sleep." Lucy tugged on Jaz's hand. "It's good to have you back, El," she said. Ellis gave her a small smile. "Thanks, Luce. I'll see you later."
He nodded, stepping back. "Have a good night." Blaise closed the door after they walked away, rubbing an eye tiredly.
