Talents In the Dark [Fantasy/ Human RP]

Selene wrapped her arms around Ford and held him tightly, never wanting to leave him ever again. Tears streamed down her face, tears of both pain and joy, and then she laid her head down on Ford's shoulder. Selene drew in shaken breaths, still frightened and in pain, and then gently kissed Ford on his neck. She closed her eyes tightly, blood pouring out of her wound and onto Ford.
Selene stayed silent, in to much pain to speak, but she wanted to tell Ford how she felt. She bit into her lower lip and then pulled Ford even closer, not caring that her shoulder was in pain and that hugging him made it even worse.

Ford felt Selene's mouth pressed against his neck for a brief moment. Was it his imagination? It couldn't have been the same Selene who he'd held his gun up to, the same Selene who could have killed him before. He stared off deep into the forest, with his mind lost in thought. Suddenly, he remembered Selene was still bleeding. Ford tugged back a few inches, and began tearing his shirt, which was beginning to fill with his sweat. It wasn't the best material, but it was better than nothing. He resumed his former position, and layered the cloth behind Selene, and pressed it tightly against her shoulder to help stop the blood.

Selene winced and then slowly opened one eye, and stared over at Ford. She whimpered softly and then her ears pressed back against her head, her shoulder wound hurting her beyond any measure. Selene wrapped her arms around Ford, holding him softly in her arms. Her chest rose up and down in hurried breaths, her heart racing at an amazing rate. Selene swallowed down hard and then winced once again.
"Hold me closer..." she whispered to Ford, feeling weak and thinking that she would faint at any moment.

Hearing Selene's request, Ford, pulled her in tighter, still holding the cloth down. He pressed his lips against the base of her neck, as though he was going to kiss her, but stopped, and rested his head there. He closed his eyes tightly. Ford couldn't sort through his emotions of happiness and sadness and pain, and sat there clueless. This was a long day for Ford, and he could only hope he was doing what he would have if he was fully sane.

Selene winced when Ford laid his head down on her shoulder, but enjoyed his touch. She opened her eyes and stared at the thick row of trees behind Ford, thinking that another hunter would leap out from behind the bushes. Selene shivered in fear and then whimpered softly, frightened. She closed her eyes and buried her face in Ford's shoulder, feeling that she needed to be closer to him to block out her fear. Tears spilled out over the corner of her eyes, making Ford's shirt damp from her salty tears.
Selene drew in a deep breath, thinking long and hard if she should stop holding Ford. She let out a sigh, her breath warm up against Ford's body, and then lifted her head up and laid her chin down next to Ford's neck. Selene wrapped her arms around Ford tightly and then closed her eyes, not wanting to look.
"I'm never going to leave you again..." she whispered, her voice soft but strained with pain. "I get hurt when ever I do..." Selene said, a slight chuckle edging her voice.

[[Gah, didn't get a notification for this one either =( I've noticed a few in the spam folder, so I'm guessing that's what's been happening, so I'll make sure to check up if I don't see any notifications for more than about half a day.]]

Ford smiled a little bit at Selene's comment. He was glad Selene wanted to stay with him. It was obvious she was suggesting it over the last few days, but she had never said it so bluntly. "I promise I won't leave you either," he replied. Ford slowly closed his eyes. He was enjoying the warmth of Selene's embrace, and wanted cut off his other senses, so he could only thing that his senses could detect was her touch and voice.

[Jump.Jump.Fall.]

Selene smiled slightly and then laid her head against Ford's, as if she was going to whisper something to him. She bit into her lower lip and let out a shaken breath, the pain coming back slowly.
"Why did you come for me?..." Selene asked softly, her voice hushed and calm. "Tell me the truth..." she said and then slowly pulled away from Ford, wanting to look at him. Selene opened her eyes and stared at Ford, her dark brown eyes red from crying.

Ford sighed, and looked down for a brief moment to see if he could find a better answer, but with no success. He looked back up, and looked her straight in in the eyes. "Because... I love you." He had said it. Ford usually tried to be straightforward with people, but when it came with an social risk, he would usually dabble around it. This was different though. "I just can't seem to leave you alone," he added, beginning to stroke the back of her skull.

Selene frowned and stared at Ford, completely surprised at what he said. She touched Ford hand softly, not knowing what else to do, and then tears streamed down her face. Selene drew in a deep breath and then a wide smile lit up her face, she was crying out of happiness. She threw her arms around Ford, a little too quickly, and tackled the boy. Selene lay on Ford's chest, staring down into his eyes, and then lowered her head slowly. She pressed her lips up against Ford's, really kissing him for the first time, and then closed her eyes.
Selene pulled back slowly and then laid her head down on Ford's chest, feeling that she loved him, too. She smiled slightly and then her tail wagged back and forth.

Ford was completely surprised when Selene tackled him. He wasn't exactly sure what she was trying to do until she began kissing him. It felt like time had stopped. Ford didn't have time to react until after Selene had finished. During a moment of thought, he began rubbing her back around her shoulder blades. Ford was happy. If someone had told him a week ago that he'd be kissing a shifter next to a corpse, he would have called them insane. Ford began to cuddle up to Selene. He was glad that she could return his feelings.
