heart Nurikan Water and a Promise heart
It was that evening now. Nadine had bathed Ezhno and had sent him to bed. She stared down at the scattered papers that were covered in glitter and the letters 'A, B, C--' and so on. She was making things for her first English class. She'd even wrote the rules on large peices of paper in glitter. It would be so perfect... but that wasn't the only thing on her mind. In each cornner of the papers were little fairy wings that resembled Sasha's.
Oh she had it bad... In fact, her entire debate was asking if they were supposed to.. well... She felt an awful tugging from the relic when he wasn't around and she doubted she could sleep that. "Anna? Can you take me to Sasha...." She just hoped he wasn't bathing or anything.
You do know you can just think where you want to go and I'll take you there, hon. He just said it outloud so you'd know what to do. Anna mentally informed her before opening the doors to Sasha's room.
The pink haired young man was in his room but this time he wasn't looking for clothes. Sasha was looking for where he'd put his shampoo. A white fluffy towel wrapped around his midsection was the only thing keeping Nadine from seeing his nude body. His wings fluttered a bit as he moved, not really noticing she was there yet.
Nadine stared at him, unwillingly letting herself take in every inch that she could see. Her wings spread suddenly and knocked something off the shelf and she froze. Oh boy... well at least they were even now, save for he had a towel. Now if only she fould figure out how to tear her eyes away from the sight.
Sasha looked up at the sound. What Nadine had knocked off was his shampoo. "Oh! there it is." he laughed and walked over, bending to pick it up and smiling up at her. "Hey. What's up?" he asked her. Sasha was a bit less startled to see her here this time. She'd seen his chest before and well technically they were married so it wasn't wrong for him to feel so comfortable near her like this, was it?
Nadine placed a hand over her heart. Could he hear how fast it was beating? She felt like it was the loudest sound in the world save for her quickened breathing. He was so nonchlant about her walking in on him NUDE. Well he had a towel but STILL! "H-hey Sa-Sas-Sasha..."
He cocked his head to the side. "You okay?" he asked, reaching out a hand to steady her.
She visably stiffened and nodded. "Me? O-o-oh of co-course.... hehee... you know what I think.... I'll let you um... do that.. um..... you know.....uh thing you were doing~! Yup you go right back to doing that....." Was her face as hot as it felt? She had a feeling that at this rate she could fry eggs on her blushing cheeks.
He blinked a few times and blushed furiously realizing that he was still in just a towel. "Oh sorry. I forgot what I was in the middle of before yo ushowed up." he laughed sheepishly. "I usually find my shampoo beforehand but I forgot today."
He WAS in a towel.... Nadine's eyes had traveled downward and were currently locked there. "Uh-huh..." Her distrated voice agreed to whatever he had said.
Sasha's cheeks started matching his hair again, realizing where she was looking. "I um.......would you like to join me? I mean up-for dinner....or somethign or uh.....well if you wanted to I guess you could but um-uh" he was stammering like all hell. Most females did not show interest in him especially in this manner
"Do you want....." She coughed slightly."Could you come to my room when you're finished?"
He nodded shyly. "Um...sure. I could come by if you like." he told her before going back to his shower, closing the door but leaving it open a crack so the room didn't steam up.
Nadine hovered took her time to hover across the room. She lied to herself, making up the exuse she wanted to know how one was to bathe while having wings. She paused and let the warm steam hit her in the face. Did she dare? The woman peeked through the small crack.
Sasha was unlucky enough to have a clear shower curtain. The water was on low and he was facing the water so that it hit his soft wings lighter. He fluttered them slightly as he bathed so the water wouldn't hang on the tops of his wings and mess them up. His body was shimmering with the glistening water as were his wings.
She let out the breath she'd been holding and braced herself with the door. It slid open slight making an ungodly creaking noise, just to warn the fairy of her presence. Was every inammate object out to get her or something? She left the room in a flurry of feathers. One of those feathers drifted into the bathroom and landed neatly in front of the shower.
Sasha's eyes looked to see where the sudden light draft had come from and saw the feather. He flushed all over and went back to showering. Because otherwise he'd get soap in his eyes after a while and that's a b***h to get out.
Afterwards Sasha redressed in a loose long black shirt and a pair of matching sleeping pants. He had Anna take him to Nadine's room but let her know it was him before he went it.
Nadine sat on her bed rocking her little boy. He had woken up complaining of a tummy ache, probably because he ate more then anyone else at dinner, and she was soothing him back to sleep. Her hazel eyes went to Sasha and she sighed in relife finding him dressed this time. "Take a seat..." She whispered patting the bed beside her. "Ezzie's not feeling to well..."
Sasha sat down next to them. "Oh? What's wrong?" he asked, looking at the boy. Being the ship's doctor he automatically had to know these types of things.
Ezzie looked up, half asleep at Sasha, then rubbed his stomach. "My tummy hurtts..."
"I told you not to eat that much..." She felt his forehead and yanked it back. "Oh baby... you've got a fever..."
Sasha reached out and checked Ezhno's forhead and nodded, agreeing with Nadine's dignosis. Walking to Nadine's bathroom he wet a washcloth and brought it back out. Gently he dabbed the water on the boy's forhead. "Stay here and rock him for a little and dab his forhead a bit. I'll be right back. I need to get my supplies from the office." he told her, handing over the washcloth and smiling at the kid.
Nadine blinked before remembering what she'd forgot. He was a doctor... She was married to a doctor... Maybe this wasn't so bad after all. She followed his directions and smiled. "Its okay, Butterfly's going tom ake you feel better, kay?"
Ezzie nodded and snuggled closer to her with a sigh. He didn't like not feeling good.
In a little bit Sasha was back holding a strange small bowl and a tiny spoon. Sitting down he smiled at the boy. "This stuff is medicine. It's not gonna taste very good but it will make you feel much better. Afterwards I'll make you up a cup of Nurikan Water to get rid of the taste." he told the boy with a nod, offering the spoon.
Ezzie glanced at his mother. His eyes silently asking if it was really OK. He trusted her more then this new man. "Mamma...?"
"Its alright, angel... Its all going to be better soon. Alright?" She ran her fingers through his curls and sat him up.
"Kay Daddy..." He answered in the mournful tone a sick kid has and opened his mouth
The bitter drink was poured into his mouth, making his face scrunch up. But after a few of those spoonfuls teh color returned to his cheeks and the boy felt considerably better. When that was done Sasha gave Ezhno another small bowlike cup with a warm brown liquid in it that was sweet and mild, making the boy feel sleepy again.
Ezzie finished the cup quickly then blinked his heavy eyelids. He kissed Nadine twice on both of her cheeks as was customary to the French before drifting off.
She smiled and put him back down on the bed and covering him up. "Thanks so much Sasha..." She said allowing her voice to hover just below a normal level.
He blushed again and smiled in an embarassed manner. "It was nothing."
She smiled back and brushed her hair back. "Listen I um...wanted to know if you wanted to move in with me, us... The relic won't leave me alone unless you're with me but I can understand how that would be weird so I can just deal with it..." Great, now he had HER rambling.
Sasha blushed and smiled. "If you and Ezhno don't mind, that'd be okay with me I guess. I don't really have any reason to object to it." he told her shyly.
"This is all so sudden... I can't believe on my first day here I managed to get married....is that a record?"
"I don't know. Possibly. I think Steve and Tan Pan knew eachother for at least 2 weeks before getting married."
"Steve's married? Poor girl..." She stood and paced around the room slightly. She had one bed... Ezzie slept with her and there wasn't much funiture. "Where uh... would you like to sleep?"
"Why do you say poor girl? They're quite happy together. She just had their first biological child together." Sasha said, puzzled. Steve was a bit of a dork sometimes and a bit obnoxious but he was really a nice guy and one of Sasha's best friends. "And well I could bring my bed in here. Anna can reconfigure herself as you noticed so she can just combine the two rooms."
"That sounds like a good plan." She wasn't ready to give her self up to him entirely. They'd still only just met. "Anna? could you please do that?" She asked outloud looking up at the celing. "We'd really appricate it."
No problemo and quite suddenly the wall phased out and the bed as well as their half of the room seemed to spin and reconfigure. All of the sudden the room they were in was facing the other way and had a doorway between that and Sasha's bedroom instead of an entire wall.
Nadine had freaked out since rooms where she lived didn't CHANGE themselves like that. She had latched herself around Sasha and waited for the movement to end. Knowing it could be done and SEEING it get done were two different things.
Sasha smiled and rubbed her back to calm her down a bit. "It's okay. You'll get used to her doing that. Anna likes to rearrange herself. When you've lived her long enoguh you'll get used to that happening while you sleep or whatever. The way we travel around the ship involves everything rearranging itself."
"Ri-right..." She replied glancing behind her. Wow... There was still plenty of space for them to get around although she noticed their beds were fairly close together. Her arms snaked their way up and around his neck as she sat in his lap. More in awe then because she was comfortable. "How do we travel...? Where are we traveling to?"
: "Travel from room to room I mean. Where we ask her to take us to the room or person we're looking for." he confirmed. "And currently she's just circling Earth. We like to be near to it so as to return guardians faster."
"Oooh..." She giggled at her mistake and nodded. "That makes sense...." She turned her head to look up at him and caught his eyes. They were so pretty.... He was perfection. Did he even realize that? She had a feeling had ever told him how wonderful he was. "Do you... believe in stories?"
"Depends on what you mean by that." he said, blinking a few times, trying to fathom an answer. "What kind of stories do you mean?"
"About finding true love..." Her mind flashed to the wings doodled on her papers to having her first kiss which was by this man, to the the akward scene that had taken place no more then half an hour ago. Was this what she'd read about?
"Of course. I've seen them come true before."
She nodded then bit her lip. "You would never just... leave, would you?"
"What do you mean?" he asked, brow furrowing. Leave? Where would he go? Well he could leave and go back to Nurika or Dahi to vist his family on occasion but what did that have to do with anything?
Her eyes softened to the point it looked like she might cry. "I mean... disappear. Find out that I'm not what you want and instead of telling me... just disappear. Pretend like I don't exsist..." It was obvious she spoke from experince on this matter as she let the tears fall down her face as she looked back into his eyes. "I can be anyone you want... I can... change if you want me to. Just don't leave...."
Sasha's eyes shone strangely and he quickly hugged Nadine close, pressing a gentle kiss to her lips. "I promise I won't leave you like that. I like you as you are, you don't have to change."
Nadine relished in the kiss and even more in the words. He wouldn't leave like her parents did. she nestled down into him and closed her eyes. "Marci... vous remercient tellement..." She relaxed against him and after a few minutes her wings fluttered as she started to drift off.
Sasha smiled. He didn't really speak any french but he got the feeling. Gently he laid her down and tucked her and Ezhno in. Placing a gentle kiss on her cheek he whispered softly "Goodnight, my darling."
Not quite sure if he should stay near her this time or go back to his own bed Sasha lay down on the edge of the covers, arm around Nadine and Ezhno.
Nadine smiled in her half asleep state and snuggled up to him as much as she could. The extra warmth was apprciated and she found that no matter how long ago she'd met him she'd still feel like this. Her own book was being written and she decided it and gotten to the chapter where she fell in love and found her happily ever after.
Ezzie cracked open an eye. His mother and father were both content and the horriable ache he'd just felt and changed into a warming feeling. He didn't have to make her lonliness and saddness go away. Butterfly would be the best daddy ever. With those thoughts in his head, he went back to sleep.

heart Bird Song (Baby Finding) heart
Sasha decided that this evening, after...what had gone on between him and Nadine, he should stay in his own bed. Were she interested in...well snuggling ..then she could walk through the door and come cuddle with him.
Nadine walked out a few minutes later and smiled at Sasha. She seemed to be in a world of pure bliss. The woman hummed as she bounced out of the room and kissed him. "Where's Ezzie at?" She asked completely on cloud nine.
"He went to use the restroom." the other informed her with a nod. "I was planning on heading to my bed tonight.....unless you have some other plans." he said, looking over at her.
"To your bed..." She blinked, "In here or your own room...?" She was confused. Hadn't they just been having so much fun?
"Remember how I have a bed behind this door and you and Ezzie have your bed. I was considering going back to mine in case you weren't comfortable about me being in the same bed with you with Ezhno there."
Ezzie came back out of the restroom and jumped onto the bed, taking hold of his Squishy. He crawled back under the covers to finish his nap.
"Can we go into your room for a bit?"
"Sure." he said with a nod, leading her into his bedroom. It was neatly furnished but something was different. His bed....suddenly had a canopy and a red tassels hanging from the canopy like a curtain. "Haha Anna, very amusing." he mumbled.
Nadine giggled and settled herself down on his bed. "Sasha... I think this could work out between us... being married I mean..."
He smiled, cheeks turning red in a different sort of blush, as he lay down on his belly, looking up at her. "I think you may have a point there."
"We really could.. pull it off...." She curled up against him and sighed. "Wouldn't that be great...? " she was exhausted and sore but damned happy. She nuzzled him affectionately. "Sasha... I think I love you..."
Sasha nuzzled her back, pulling the covers up over them and placing an arm around her. "I think I may love you too." he whispered, kissing her gently on the lips.
Nadine let her head rest against him as she shut her eyes. She was still lingering all everything that had just happened. In that instant she let her sensible side take a back seat and found something new. Something amazing. She found love.
As the two snuggled, something pulled them up from their sleeping positions. Ezhno, though joined in the bond, wasn't near enough to be dragged into this. Their souls floated above their sleeping figures. It wasn't too high up and it was something that Nadine had experienced before . They could still see that they were sleeping and not dead. And across the room a door had appeared in the wall, the relic on Nadine's neck beckoning them to go through.
Nadine grabbed onto Sasha's hand and frowned. "Come on Sasha! This is it.." She flew for the door and held out her hand toward it.
He followed though he was a bit confused. Oh well. She had gotten a kid before so had to know what was going on. The door opened and when they had passed through, vanished behind them. This unnerved Sasha quite a lot but so did the sight before them.
She was lovely. Truly lovely. A young woman in chains, long feathery green hair, humanoid upper torso, birdlike legs and hands. Her back was exposed through a shirt that had been ripped. And down her back were scars similar to those that had been on Sasha's back. Her arms and legs had had the feathers ripped from them and her arms seemed to have burn scars long the under side of them for some reason. And there was the nub of a tail sticking out the back of her skirt. She was chained to the floor, which for a being who was used to being in flight was a rather painful way to be chained. Held down, on her belly, and with her wings removed.
Sasha pulled Nadine close, hugging her. That was a sad sight all right.
Nadine pulled away from Sasha and flew towards her. "You poor thing...." She whispered then felt he tears surfacing. "We'll take good care of you now..." She held up her hand for Sasha. "I think....I know we have to do this together...."
Sasha knelt and lay a hand on the woman along with Nadine. When they did the relic and the body began to glow blindingly. The relic shot like light from Nadine's neck and into the body of the goddess. When it did she started to shrink. At a much smaller size the glowing stopped, leaving a small baby girl kneeling on the floor before them. She had blue feathered feet, red feathered arms, bat wings under her arms, large butterfly wings that went down into birdlike wings on her back, and small glittery insect like wings on her head. She blinked up at them with large pink eyes, her soft green hair bouncing. And oddly enough she had a tail. A rainbow flat tail that when she flew would be able to puff up under her.
Nadine stared and did so for about two seconds. ".......AWWWWWWWWWWWW! You're so adorable! You are so many colors! I know you'll be happy with the two of us! I bet Sasha can teach you to fly again and everything!" After such a horrible death it was the least the little girl deserved. Nadine laid a hand down on the little girl's head. Her voice became softer and a promise. "I won't let anyone hurt you anymore... You'll be safe and happy. I'll make sure of it."
Sasha smiled and reached down and wrapped an arm around the little girl. "Let's get out of here. Maybe when Ezzie wakes up from his nap he can meet Elena."
The little girl perched her claws into Sasha's arms and let out a small noise. Nadine led them back through the door that had reappeared and gave Sasha a final smile of that 'dream'.
Sasha felt odd holding the child. She wasn't' quite sure how to perch yet. She had a hold on his arm arm with her feet and he had his other arm wrapped around her back, holding the babe to his chest.
After the two and the new baby had returned to their own bodies they were able to wake up and deal with the small child. Get her clothed and situated.

Older Brother
Elena clicked and watched Ezzie, tilting her head to the side. He'd been staring at her so it was only common sense that she got to stare back at him. The child cooed softly and reached up her arms. She wanted up.
Ezhno glanced around quickly. His parents were off talking about something called 'marriage', whatever that was. All he knew was that meant a trip! He wrapped his hands around the little girl and lifted her up. "Mommy said you're name is Elena and that you're a baby! Since your a baby I won't let you be alone cause its scary! I promise!"
The winged girl just let out excited squeals and played with her brother's shirt.
"You gave mommy wings..." He shifted to look over his shoulders. He couldn't see the bumps through his shirt but he could feel them. "Butterfly said that I'm gettin' some too..."
Elena yawned and flapped each set of her own wings, snuggling into the boy's embrace.
"I love you too." He whispered setting her down onto the bed and into her 'nest'. It was a pile of blankets that she fussed unless she was buried in.
"Coo..."
