The worst thing is: you make me worry (SC-verse)

[fallenstar]

[002 was rarely one to stay still on good days. When he was upset, the likelihood of being patient flew straight out the window. He'd left early that morning and generally avoided his partner for as long as possible, choosing to bottle up his frustrations and worry as he usually did. The problem with him doing that was that he was like an open flame, that bottle came to heat and then boiled over sooner than he liked.

That was why he was waiting now in the living room of their apartment so he could actually confront Orihime. He didn't really know what he was going to say or how he was going to say it, but it didn't matter, he was ruled by his emotions, and they were leading this 'conversation.']

[Orihime hummed to herself as she carried back the groceries she had bought for herself and Jet. She started the day like any other, minus the fact that Jet was still upset with her. She tried to keep a positive approach, using her favorite songs and going to visit Tobi to cheer her mood up.

Once she was done with shopping, she was walking home. The journey took longer than normal since she decided to walk at a slow pace, unsure of how to react to Jet when she arrived back. Once that time came though, Orihime slowly opened the door and peeked inside. She saw Jet watching intently out the window.]

Jet-kun...I'm home..

[fallenstar]

['Jet-kun, I'm home.' For some reason that echoed in his head and grated on his nerves. He liked Orihime's voice and her personality and...well, everything, but she had this tone that made it really hard to be mad at her, and it frustrated him. He wanted to be mad, dammit! He was mad, what she'd done was stupid!]

Mmm..

[He steadfastly refused to look at her, the city outside the window being far easier to look at. He didn't want to fight with her, but his frustration with her and his own inability to express himself was growing.]

[healinghime]

[Orihime walked in, stepping out of her shoes and into a pair of slippers before quietly shutting the door behind her as she gave him a small smile then walked over to him. She set the groceries aside on the floor as she moved to sit next to him.

Enough is enough. She could not stand this rift in their partnership any longer. Orihime placed her hands on his cheeks, forcing him to turn his face to look at her own. She looks rather stern for a moment but slowly her expression eases into a more concerned gaze. ]

Jet.

I-

[She bites her lip as she tries to not sound cruel. But she knows the words will only sound worse if she tries any other way.]

I don't regret what happened the other day. I'm only sorry that I had to worry you--and that I upset you.

[fallenstar]

[He's taken aback a moment but anger quickly flairs up and he glares...though he knows it's not as strong as it should be, it was still Orihime.]

Upset me!? You could have been killed! You were reckless and put yourself in danger needlessly!

I'm your weapon, I'm supposed to protect you! I- [He grit his teeth and looked away. All the feelings of worry and anger and fear at the possibility of loosing her welled up and it was hard not to just throw them all at her, but he didn't want to.]

Sorry I dont have other interesting charactttersss orz

[healinghime]

[Orihime stiffens up, her back straightening as she gives him a tense look.]

But we're in a war here! We are all reckless! I want to be helpful too! I want to protect everyone I care about--I-

[Her lower lip trembles and her eyes start to get glassy. A few tears slip down her cheeks. Orihime glances away as well, her hands twisting in her lap.]


I want to protect you too Jet. If it means I am reckless sometimes, then so be it.

Ffff No, shush, I like this one just fine <3333

[fallenstar]

That's not-

[He wanted to bolt so badly. He wasn't used to actually having to face his emotions, but he knew it wouldn't matter. Orihime was stubborn and she could get things out of him he never wanted to tell.]

I don't want to loose you, dammit! I thought...I thought I was going to and...I just can't. I have to protect you.

[He finally managed to look at her, his face red from embarrassment at everything he was saying....but it was all true.]

You're all I've got here. Everyone else is back home...and if I lost you-

[He cut himself off again.]

<3333 lol I just wanna skip the feels to sexy times

[healinghime]

[Orihime wiped at her eyes quickly with her sleeve then looked up to him. Her lips curved into a tentative smile and her hands reach out to grasp his.]

Then--

You're all I have here too Jet. All my friends are long gone..

[She squeezes his hands.]

Whatever may happen...I-I'd find you again in a different life time! Because I know it would not be a happy life if I didn't have you in it. I know I want to try all sorts of foods, to do different careers and see the world once this war is over but I want to do it with you so let's protect each other...

<333 Well, that kinda works because Jet's done feelsing

[fallenstar]

Orihime...

[He held her hands but looked away, hair covering his eyes as his face just turned brighter.

He was supposed to say something, he knew he was....but words were hard and actions were better anyway.

He turned back towards her and leaned forward, pressing his lips firmly against hers. One of his hands let go and came up to slide into her hair.]

hooray!

[healinghime]

[Orihime could count off all the possible ways she dreamed about receiving her first kiss but this one was something off the pages. It took her by surprise when he leaned forward but, she made no move to push him away. Her lips respond to his as her hands move to cup his face, pulling him closer.]

[fallenstar]

[It was a lot nicer than he'd imagined, once he'd actually done it, and he was more than glad to find her responding rather than pushing him away. He didn't really know what sort of response he'd expected, but he liked this one.

He pulled her closer and deepened the kiss, running his tongue across her lips in an effort to deepen it even more.

He didn't want to rush her, but it was hard for him to go slow when he wasn't used to it. He'd stop if she asked him to, though.]

[healinghime]

[Orihime stiffened somewhat when she felt his tongue run along her lower lip. She shivered as she parted her lips for him, allowing the kiss to deepen. With the kiss turning heated it only caused her face to turn a rosy hue.

The auburn haired princess slowly slid her hands down his face and traced along his jawbone as they made their way to grip at his shirt.]
