Recovery

[Nazier]

"Naz.....kiss me...." Nazier's entire face went a bright red when he heard the request and he froze completely. Had he heard her right or was he just imagining that? He didn't know. He'd never had a girl ask her to kiss her before; especially not out of the blue like that. Was it her injury making her light-headed? Did she even know she said this, or was it something else. He didn't feel nervous, but the thought of a woman asking him to kiss her baffled him.

He sat there with thoughts racing around his mind like it was a Nascar track. It wasn't like he didn't want to kiss her. From what he's seen and felt, Karina was an extremely attractive woman, which was why he constantly found himself blushing or thinking very raunchy thoughts when around her, but it all seemed so... unexpected.

Maybe it will make her feel better...? When this thought crossed his mind, it stuck like sap. If it was to make her feel better, he couldn't stop himself from kissing her. If she requested it, he would have to perform it. It was in order to help heal his partner, after all. But even still, his mind knew that he should probably be cautiously wary of his actions as not to come off too strong and offend her.

Nazier's fingers lightly caressed her face, mapping it out as they traveled past her cheeks, along the sides of her mouth and over her lips. They were so soft and felt as if they were awaiting his. Now that he knew where her lips were, he subconsciously ran his tongue across his own, then leaned over her; the strands of his shadow-black hair folding along side their faces to isolate them from the rest of the room. At that moment it was only Nazier and Karina facing one another.

Slowly and carefully, Nazier lowered himself towards her and hovered with his lips mere inches from hers. He could feel her breathing in anticipation, but he was hesitating for some reason. This would be the first time he'd ever kissed a woman and his thoughts were tugging harshly on him. I should be able to feel the emotion... He felt nothing. No excitement, no passion, no nervousness. His heart was still as he hovered over her. He thought it'd be wrong to kiss her without any emotion, but his body was still being subconsciously drawn in to hers with every breath she took. He knew he wanted too, but he couldn't help but hold back.

[Karina]

Karina could feel his face close against hers. She could feel warmth radiating from his face on hers and he hovered over her. What is he waiting for... She thought to herself.

She kept her eyes close, for fear of ruining the moment if he were to go through it with...although it didn't matter, since he couldn't see. She began to feel around his for his face. Waving her left hand through the air, she felt a material. Thinking it was his vest collar, she tugged at it, in hopes to pull him into her lips.

It just so happened that the material she tugged, was the very band that shielded Naz's eyes from the rest of the world.

[Nazier]

Whilst Nazier hovered over the girl, he felt her hand raise and grab on to his band. A shock wave passed through his body when she grabbed it and instantly his hand went to push hers away, but it was the hand he was using to support himself. Without it, when she tugged on the band, his balance was lost. Because the knot was tied very well, it held its place and did not come undone, but because of him being of balance, he accidentally fell lips first onto hers.

Instantly, he felt a rush of feelings and emotions he'd never experienced before. When her lips met his it sparked a partial resonance between the two of them; a resonance strong enough to release Nazier's emotions like an explosion. His body trembled with both excitement and fear. He was nervous, but he didn't want to stop. He lips felt amazing: The most amazing things he'd ever experienced before in his life. This was his first kiss. He didn't understand everything that was surging through his being at that single moment, but he did know that he had given his first kiss away to his partner, Karina: the only person he'd ever felt close to ever since he'd become a corrupted soul.

[Karina]

As Naz's lips made contact with Karina's, Karina began feel a plethora of emotions. Happiness, nervousness, even a little bit of fear...they all rolled into one as they kissed. Karina's face turned fire red as they continue to kiss, her lips trembled in fear that she wasn't doing it right.

She didn't want this moment to end. She could feel the nauseating feeling beginning to subside in her stomach. The pains that she received from her battle were no longer imminent. All she could feel was her heart soaring with happiness. She could feel Naz's body tremble with excitement and fear. That didn't stop her from holding on.

She could even feel a partial resonance between them as they did this gesture. Her heart burned, but not in a bad way. This wasn't like the other kisses she was given...Naz wasn't trying to grope her, or tear her clothes off (although his other hand was still located on her breast). In fact, it was quite the opposite. His lips gently stayed connected with hers, as if though he were afraid that if he kissed her too hard she might break.

This was the first Karina had received in a very long time. It was also the first kiss in a very long time that Karina actually enjoyed.

[Nazier]

Nazier could feel Karina's body reacting to his lips. She was drawing him in with every passing second. Every subtle moan, every quiet whimper, it all made him want her even more, but he refused to allow himself to fall to primal instinct and jump on top of her. Karina meant more to him than that. She was gentle and delicate, as were her lips, which is why he chose to savor this moment.

He must have kissed her for well over a minute before he slowly pulled away. Almost as instantly as his lips parted from hers, he could no longer feel the effects of the resonance or his emotions. He was plunged back into nothingness, but his mind was still very active. He kissed her. For the first time, he'd kissed a girl, and it was none other than his own partner, Karina Lockheart. If he could feel, he'd feel very happy, but since he could not, he got on with what he was doing before.

"Are you feeling any better now, Karina?" He inquired, not allowing his passion to distract him from what he was doing.

[Karina]

Naz slowly pulled away, leaving Karina to feel empty again. She opened her eyes, no longer were they blood shot. She looked up at him, brown eyes shining as if though she diamonds in them. She merely smiled softly.

"Are you feeling any better now, Karina?" Naz asked her in his usual voice. Karina tried to wiggle around. She didn't feel as much pain as she did before, and the nauseating feeling had disappeared. It was as if though the kiss had healed her as close to normal as possible.

Karina nodded. "Yeah...." She laughed a little. "It's as if though your lips have healing properties." She laughed and blushed a light pink as she said this. She looked at him head to toe and smiled softly. What she said next was unexpected, ever for her. She felt like she should've held it back, but she wanted to let him know.

"Naz....although we haven't been together that long....I love you." She blushed a dark shade of red when she realized what she said.
"I mean...yeah...I love you..but like..I hope that's not weird or anything, since like, we haven't even known each other that long...."

She was beginning to ramble on when she got nervous. "I mean you're a really nice guy, and even though you can't really express your emotions, I feel like I can still feel what you wish to show. But I mean, I'm not trying to like say that I know you or anything like that especially since we've only known each other for 3 days...."

[Nazier]

When Karina started talking she just didn't stop. The things she said all seemed to come straight from her heart. She hold anything back. She confessed to him that she loved him and he didn't exactly know how to respond to it. She mentioned that she could feel his emotions even though he couldn't. He sat there, listening to everything she said, and he smiled at her. It sounded like she was starting to ramble on and was just talking just because she felt as though she needed to clear up what she was saying, but he already understood her message.

Nazier softly placed a finger over her lips to get her to stop talking, and he started to speak. "You're a very beautiful young woman, Karina and even though I might not be able to express my feelings, I know they're there." He then nodded and gave her a small smirk."I hope we can still remain as close as we are."

[Karina]

"I hope we can still remain as close as we are." When Naz said this, Karina was overcome by joy. She sat up quickly and looked up at him with her brown eyes. They were wide and gleaming, filled with awe and love for him. "Really??" She smiled and wiggled, the way she normally would when she got happy.

There was a jolt of pain that shot up the side of her body from the sudden movement. Karina yelped out in pain and quickly laid back down. That didn't stop her happiness though.

As the pain went away, Karina looked up at him and smiled bright. She giggled. "Can I have another kiss?"

[Nazier]

It seemed like he said the right thing to her. Karina all of a sudden exploded with happiness; so much that it flung her into an upward sitting position. Nazier smirked at her, but it quickly changed when she yelped out in pain. He reached out and grabbed her, then gently lowered her down on to the bed. "You're still a bit hurt, Karina. Take your time." He laid her down comfortably and scooted his chair closer to her bed, but he didn't sit down just yet. He just leaned over her. He was curious to know what expression was on her face, so he gently placed his fingers on her lips and caressed them. It felt like her face was in the shape of a smile. He moved his finger to the corner of her mouth and confirmed that she was smiling, so he manufactured a smile that matched hers.

"Can I have another kiss?" The girl giggled, sending a wave of thoughts through the young weapon's mind. He definitely wanted to kiss her again and if the first one made her feel so much better, maybe the second would do the same. He nodded to her, then slowly leaned down and gently placed his lips against hers. Their kiss was a lot deeper the second time since he wasn't as nervous as before, but something just didn't feel the same. He wanted the kiss to match the last one in order to maximize the chances of healing her, so he slowly moved his hand up her side and then gently placed it on her breast, giving it a few squeezes because he liked the way she reacted when he did so.

[Karina]

Karina moaned out softly as he did so. His lips were pushing electricity through her veins, and she loved every second of it. She felt herself getting light-headed, the pleasure beginning to take over her her body. She kissed him harder as he squeezed on her breasts, her back arching. She pressed her lips more onto his, this time taking his hand and sliding it up her shirt. She knew she was taking it far, but she didn't care.


As if on cue, a short, bronze-skinned woman walked in. The nurse. She had on a white lab coat, along with a stethoscope around her neck. Her footsteps were silent, so Karina or Naz didn't hear her come.

She looked up and saw the scene in front of her. She blushed a bright red and was unsure whether she should stop them, or walk out. Instead she let cleared out her throat.
