Nightwing - CLOSED

Chapter 11

For some reason, the bold and italics aren't working. I'll go through all the chapters and fix it.

Rain yawned. It took her an hour to tell Lium the important parts of her life's story. She was still on the marbled counter. When she told him about what the officer did to her, he joined her on the counter, wrapping an arm around her waist. Her eyes were blurred from sleepiness but she managed to keep them open to be able to answer any of Lium's questions.

Which he did have some. "So... you aren't a virgin?" he asked. "Technically, no, but the tesseract healed all of my wounds, so I didn't know if it healed that wound..." Rain frowned. What a blunt question. Lium moved his jaw to the right, thinking. "And you have accelerated healing, too?" Rain gave a quiet sigh. "Yes." He grabbed her injured arm, his hand soft as a feather. "Then why are you still in pain?" Rain examined her arm, as did Lium. "I guess you bent the metal... I'm sure it'll straighten out eventually. Like a normal bone, since the metal only covered my skeleton."

Lium kissed her knuckles, keeping his amazing eyes on her face. "That Javier fellow taught him good." Rain thought aloud immediately flushing as Lium grinned, his expression full of desire. He pulled her arm so she slid closer to him on the counter, and pressed lips against hers. "You need to get to sleep soon, so I'll make this fast." He stood up, and grabbed her, wrapping her legs around his waist. He leaned her backwards, and she felt the softness of his bed sheets beneath her.

Rain closed her eyes when she hear the thump of Lium's pants fall to the ground. We're like freaking rabbits! She grinned at the thought. She opened her eyes a notch as Lium climbed onto the bed, straddling her, as they made out. He was still wearing his boxers. Not for long... Rain thought lustfully . She curled her arms around his muscular back, and he pushed his up her shirt, leaving trails of goosebumps along her belly.

Gently, he placed kisses on Rain's cheek, and moved along the jawline and down her neck. She breathed heavily onto his neck, which was only an inch away from her nose. Her breath hitched when she felt the feeling of her blood being drawn out of her body, and her eyes grew brighter. She nuzzled her forehead against his neck, getting more tired by the second. If she paid attention, she could hear him swallow her blood.

Finally, he stopped and returned to kissing her. His easy rhythm making Rain even more tired. Right as she fell into slumber, she heard Lium whisper, "Good night, love."

Rain woke, cold and empty. At first, she thought that she was back in the ally, and sat up quickly, the covers preventing her to fly out of the bed. Breathing heavily, she looked around. The clock on Lium's dresser said 4:36. She sighed, and noticed that Lium wasn't in bed. She was about to get out, until she saw that the bathroom's light was being cast out from under the doors. I'll wait for him. Rain curled her legs up against her chest, and shivered from the coldness.

She fell into a soft doze as she waited, and straightened her back, startled, from a warm hand on her knee. She loosened up when she saw Lium peering back at her. "What are you doing up?" he asked, almost grumpily. "I could ask the same thing, but I'm too tired to." Lium smirked, and asked a followup question. "Where's your phone?" Rain frowned and pointed next to his clock. He flashed over there, and put it on his radio, unlocking the passcode with ease. How the hell? He picked a song, and Rain realized it was Sunday Morning by Maroon 5.

Funny, we met on Sunday... He sat behind her and glanced at her goose bumps. "Is it really that cold in here?" he muttered to himself. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders, and made her lay back down to where she had her head on his chest. He pulled the comforter up to her chin, and made himself comfortable.

Rain closed her eyes and had a whisper of a smile on her face. She couldn't help it, but she began to purr. She heard, and felt, Lium chuckle underneath her. Rain ignored it, and welcomed the heat Lium brought, quickly falling back to sleep.
