Bleed, Patch, And Keep Moving - An Apex Legends Story

Chapter 71 - Home For The Holo-Days

Hey there readers, 700 views! Thank you so much!

It had been a while since the Halloween event. It felt like there was one event right after another as the Holo-Day Bash started; a king of the mountain event between three teams. The event took place on a train with Mirage voice overs for hosting purposes. There was also a debut for Mirage Voyage. A party boat decked out with Mirage decoys, bright lights, loud music, a bar, a grill, pork chops, a party floor, an upper deck, and a hot tub. The Mirage Voyage was added to the World's Edge arena and in regular rotation. All the Legends knew everything about it because Mirage would not stop talking about it. The Holo-Day bash was its own separate event. It was hosted on World's Edge and used the same train route that was already located on in the arena. The train was decorated for the winter holidays.

The Holo-Day Bash event looked a lot better than the Halloween event but Ajay would never know because Blisk pulled her from it, or so he said the higher ups were pulling her from it. The rest of the work year was dedicated to the train event and Ajay wasn't even participating. The only thing that really upset her was the fact that she was saying goodbye to Octavio the day before Christmas, she wouldn't be seeing him again until after the New Year. Apex had some bright idea to hold the Holo-Day event every night from the 25th to the 1st of the New Year. The drive back and forth wasn't reasonable, at least that is what Ajay thought. So Octavio would stay at the apartment while he competed and Ajay would stay at their house with Mila.

Ajay woke up Christmas morning and went through her normal routine. She took a shower and got dressed. She wore the essentials as well as a long sleeved black shirt and black leggings. She got a fire going in the fireplace in one of the rooms downstairs. She really didn't do much for Christmas she was usually working. When it was just her and Octavio they would sneak out and get drunk, grab food, and skateboard. She smiled at the thought. This year was different. She sat down on the floor in front of the fire with a small rectangular box next to her.

"Morning Ajay." Mila walked in behind her. They were almost dressed the same. Mila was still using clothing from Ajay's wardrobe; Ajay didn't mine but she wondered if maybe Mila would like some of her own clothes. "Mornin Mila." She sat down next to Ajay on the floor. "Where is everyone?" Ajay sighed, "Work." Mila watched the flames of the fire, "Why aren't you at work?" Ajay brought her knees to her chest, "Apex politics." Mila looked a little sad, "Oh. You know, if you wanted I could patch you into the arena. I am a hacker." Ajay really did want to be in the arena but she couldn't risk Mila getting caught, it just wasn't an ideal situation.

"Thanks Mila. But I'll just lay low for now." Ajay picked up the box that she had set out next to her and handed it to Mila. "Merry Christmas." Mila was taken aback when she took the box into her hands, "I didn't get you anything." Ajay smiled, "That's okay." Mila gently opened the box to find a Medix injector charm. The Medix injector looked just like the one in the arena and it was quite big. It was attached to a black string which Mila put around her neck. "I love it!"

Ajay smiled and reached for the charm, "Look." She pulled the long end of the injector piece off to reveal that it was USB drive. Mila laughed. Ajay replaced the cap, "Don go tellin ya brother. I think he will be mad." Mila hugged Ajay, lingering for a moment, "It's perfect. I know my brother is rough around the edges. The truth is that we were both orphans. Mystik took us in and took such good care of us. But we only had each other for a long time. The first time we had a taste of the games is hearing about them from Mystik. She told us about everything and about Mirage. She loves him."

Ajay was a bit confused, "Was he in the games previously." Mila nodded, "A while ago." Ajay had no clue but it made sense as to why Elliot knew so much about Apex. "Mila, why were ya taken?" Mila looked down at her new necklace, running her fingers along the charm. "I found an algorithm in their system that was predicting winners of the arena games. I thought that my brother and I could use it to make some cash to make ends meet. He didn't want to so I didn't. But I guess Apex found that I breeched the system. Shortly after I found out and left for work they abducted me. Then they went after my brother. I never meant to put him in the middle of all of this." Ajay gently rubbed Mila's back, "It's not ya fault. I think they have a hand in all of our lives in one way or another."

Mila looked down at the floor, "Ajay. Do you feel like were connected?" She paused and ran her fingers along the rug they were sitting on. "I don't know how to explain it. But like we are connect on... Like on a different level than other people?" She laughed awkwardly, "Maybe I don't know what I am talking about." Ajay grabbed Mila's hand, "I feel it too...." They interlaced their fingers and Ajay smiled as she laid back onto the floor, "I thought it was just me at first." Ajay felt a sense of calm, like they were the only ones there; even though they were the only ones there. It just felt like there was nothing else butthem in that room. "It feels like we're the only people. Almost like we're in that rift again." She closed her eyes.

Mila laid down next to Ajay and gripped her hand tightly. "It feels good." Mila said as she closed her eyes and pressed the side of her head to Ajay's head. Ajay stared up at the ceiling briefly and then closed her eyes, "I know what ya mean. It feels nice. I could lay like this all day." Mila sighed happily as they laid there for a while. Mila sat up, still holding Ajay's hand and looked down at her. "Do you ever want to go back?" Ajay opened her eyes and looked up to Mila, "Back where?" Mila looked down at their hands, "To the rift?" Ajay smiled, "Yah. But it was destroyed." Mila rubbed Ajay's hand, "I have been working on something. It's almost ready. I just wanted to know if you would go back." Mila was hesitant as she asked. Ajay closed her eyes again, "Yah, I would like that." Mila smiled and laid back down. They both closed their eyes and laid next to one another.

Hours melted away but were eventually interrupted by the vibration of Ajay's phone as it broke the silence. She gently released Mila's hand. She looked down to Mila, who was sleeping, and stepped into the kitchen before answering the phone, she couldn't be too careful. Ajay smiled as she saw it was Octavio. She answered the video call. "Hey Silva." Octavio smiled back at her, "Mrs. Silva, how are you?" Ajay sat down on the counter as she held the phone, "Good, how was ya match?" Octavio pulled the goggles up from his emerald eyes and rested them on his forehead, "We won. It would have been better if you were here." She laughed, "I'm sure ya got along just fine Silva." Octavio shrugged, "Doesn't change the fact that I want you here." Ajay hopped off the counter and made her way up the stairs towards their bedroom.

"Silva... I miss you too." Octavio smiled and laid down on the bed in the apartment. "You should take off your clothes Che." She closed the door behind her as she made it into their room. Her face felt warm as she blushed. She set her phone down and quickly peeled off her clothes before picking her phone back up. "Okay Silva." He smirked at her, "Come on Che don't be stupid, show me the goods." Ajay scanned the phone over her body and then back up to her face before sitting down on the bed. "Che?" She laid on her back, "Silva?" He brought the phone down to his cock as he stoked it. "Silva..." She smiled as her hand trailed down her stomach to her pussy. Her fingers began to rub her clit. "I am so wet." She dipped her fingers inside of her pussy and pulled them out, holding them up to the camera on the phone to show him.

Octavio watched her wet fingers glisten in the light and tilted his head back for a moment and continued to stroke his cock. Ajay pointed the phone at her breasts as her fingers worked her clit, "Silva. I wish ya were here..... in me." He watched as her breasts moved up and down with the rise and fall of her chest. "Are you touching yourself again Che?" Ajay lowered the phone to her pussy, as best as she could. He watched as she rubbed her clit for him. He shuddered and stroked his cocked a little faster. He wished that he could be inside of her.

"Are you close Che?" She moaned his name, "Yeah Silva.... Now..." He stroked himself into a climax as she moaned into the phone at him. Her hand came up from her pussy to her breasts, grabbing them one by one. She smiled as she brought the phone to her face. "Che, I am going to fuck the shit out of you when I get home." She laughed, "I feel the same way Silva." She climbed under the blankets, "It's lonely without ya." He gave her a sad look, "It isn't much better here. I am staying in some chica's apartment and she's not even here!" She talked with Octavio until she fell asleep.
