Genetics (GirlxGirl)

Chapter 4

What's this? An update???
Genomia's POV
/////////////
"Wait... leave?" Ella is giving me the Bitch are you serious? face, wich means I probably shouldn't have said that.

"Well. Do you have a better solution?" I look at her straight in the eyes. She doesn't flinch. There's a moment of silence before she speaks.

"Where would we even go? What would we do? We don't have anything!" That's where she's wrong.

"I can get us anywhere we want, Ella. You don't know half of the powers that I possess. Besides, my creators gave me a great amount of money before I left. They wouldn't just drop me into nature with nothing at all." I can see her hesitating. I wish we wouldn't have to leave. She probably doesn't even know if she can trust me.

"And my parents? My friends?" I thought about that, too.

"I don't mind you telling your close friends, if they promise not to look for you, and they don't tell anyone about this. I could probably change your parents memories to make them believe that you're studying abroad, or that you just left for a trip." Ella seems to be considering the idea, and she looks like she's in deep reflection.

"I don't want to sound rude, but I would like to have time to think about this. Do you have a place that you could go for.. let's say three days? This is pretty new for me" She looks sorry as she says those words, but I understand her. This must be pretty hard for her.

"I can probably find a motel or something. Don't worry too much about me. I'll come back in three days. You better not leave without me." She chuckles slightly. I smile.

"Don't worry. I'll think about all of this. I mean, it's not like my life was really interesting these days.
I'd like something new, but.." Her smile is almost apologetic.

I nod, understanding what she's trying to say. "I'm sorry to make you choose like this. This is so stupid, and I wish I didn't have to do it. We barely know each other. I really wanted to get to know you. Before... taking you away. But I can't. And I'm sorry for that." This is true. All of this is true. I wish we could have met differently. Take our time. Unfortunately, I didn't get a choice.

"It's okay. It's not your fault. I just need to think about it." Her voice is soft and reassuring. I'm glad she understand, but I still feel bad about this whole situation. I just want her to be happy. I hope we'll work it out.

"Anyway. I think i'll neave now" I say, as I stand up quickly. I don't want to start talking about emotional shit. Not yet, at least.

She nods, and rises from her bed. I don't know what she's thinking about.

I follow her out of the room, and she silently leads me down the stairs. We both stop in front of the main door.

I have a feeling she has something to say. For a few seconds, it's completely silent. Awkward. Then, without notice, she hugs me. It's brief, but it's enough to make my whole body melt. I'm probably blushing like crazy. 

"You better come back soon." She says, and I know she'll manage to find my location and beat my ass if I don't.

I nod, still shocked by what just happened, and unable to make any sound. Sweet baby jesus, she hugged me! Can you even believe it? Because I sure as hell can't.
This is too beautiful. And yet, this time, it's not a dream.

She opens the door for me, and I wave at her while I walk away.
I probably lost my ability to speak. Not that I care. I can use telepathy.

I walk for a while, wandering. I don't want to use my powers. I can walk just fine. I notice that the sun has left the sky long ago.

I finally spot a little motel on the side of the highway. Yes, I was walking on the side of the highway. It's not very busy this time of the day. The motel looks decent. I just need a place to sleep, so I'm not very picky.

The woman at the reception looks dead inside, or very tired, or both. She has a few rooms available for me, and I pay for three nights. She gives me the key i'll be using. It says "Room 13". Great.

The motel room isn't really big. Basically just a bed and a small TV. It's not top quality, but i'll deal with it. The décor is ugly, but I suppose that's not important.

I let myself fall on the bed. I'm too lazy to watch TV, or use my powers to snoop on people, like I usually do when i'm very bored.

So I lay there. And I think. Of nothing. Of everything. And of Her.

"See you in three days" I say, softly, before being pulled into the land of dreams.
