Awkward chat
1061 Words
But gradually it expanded like a mot flame, warm and sooting filling my whole vision as I woke up with a jolt
I struggled to adapt to the sudden brightness
My thoughts felt slow and draggy
My head groggy, pounding like I head-butted a bull
My eyes gradually adapted as colours returned. Awareness setting back in.
I was in a lab flickering with blue light and electronic screens. Looking down, I was bound to a cold metallic chair, black thick straps on my arms, wrist, waist, legs.... I struggled to break out of them, but strength eluded me.
Looking up, I met with a face- young..fair, hands akimbo. He had green hair and brown eyes that held fury that simmered beneath.
My first thought:
"Where am I?"
Second:
"What did I do?"
....Third pov....
The subject steered awake her lashes fluttering highlighted with her deep black eyes like a sexy fox eliciting desires. Her purple luscious hair Cascaded down framing her face like a piece of art work.
Down her slender neck to her killer body: slender arms framing her plump boobs, her thin waist that will make any man run mad with desires to touch or hold. Her hips flared curving with the right proportion
He plump thighs and perky behind, overall she was a beauty to kill for- no wonder Rex was worried rather than appreciating the beauty
This was a beauty that could kill.
Rex "...."
Stranger "...."
They stated at each other, Rebecca blinking confused. Rex stern gaze bared down on her as the burning anger slowly died out, like a bucket of ice dumped on a burning torch.
This went on for a few minutes, the hum of electronics in the background amplifying the underlining tension
{That is if there was one :^)}
Finally speaking out with a slight croak to her voice, Rebecca said " err..... hi?....."
"....." No reply, it was becoming awkward
"Erm....okay, t-thank you for saving me..." Her voice softer to the end barely a whisper. A slight blush appeared on her chicks
" Why was he looking at her like that? She thought " so intense...this is driving me insane..."
Finally opening his mouth to reply, and all he said was ".... I'm Rex....."
{Kinda disappointed, don't you think?ಠ︵ಠ}
"Err.... I am Rebecca....."
"Nice to meet you "
" You too......"
Their chat sounded like two lover birds that finally mustard the courage to talk to each other, but were too nervous and shy to converse. So their conversation sounds much like an interview-plain
He wore his stern-pokerface like a mask trying to cover his inner panic and fluster " what should I do?, I should I introduce myself?". Mind going hey wire, not from worry but from 'worry'. " Should I just-"
[Never knew you could be so flustered sir] Jax's electronic voice broke through his thoughts with a ting of cynicism to it.
"Shut the f**k up" Rex snapped mentally, almost breaking character
[If you require a method on how to get rid of the awkward moment you created, you can try to divert her attention with questions about her origin....]
Rex: "........fine..." He lost the battle again.
Clearing his throat with an audible cough drawing her attention " cough am Rex er I own this place....well not actually but technically and I was woken up by you staggering up to my protective force field. "
"If I may ask" stern tone returning," what was that? and where are you from? Cus you woke me up from my sleep!" Rex fired question after question bearings coming back with his inadequate sleep registering.
Rebecca: "...." Is he serious?
[That was corny-]
" I know!! " Rex almost screamed out loud eyes widening from embarrassment.
" Okay look, I saved you from the brink of death"
"Thank you-"
" No appreciation needed" Rex cut her off. "Look, from your outlook..." gesturing to her face and body," I can tell you are either from a prominent family or maybe a gang or force-i don't care! But please can you just go back to where you came from, I don't want any troubles......taking my help as a face value and leave please....."
"....."
Thick silence ensued with Rebecca's head dropping her hair covering her face blocking Rex from telling her current state or mood.
"Did I do anything wrong?" He asked, thinking she was about to cry-much like a spoiled brat that had her candy taken away. He didn't know how to deal with such a situation..
[Negative sir according to her vitals reading and brain signals, she is a bit unstable mentally but isn't at the point of crying....]
Sigh! God can't my day get any better?, how will I deal with this? Rex complained internally eyes betraying his state.
Steeling his heart, he decided to get rid of her. She was a ticking time bomb that could explode at any time and could effectively drag me down, maybe lose my life in the process like in the novels...
"Looks I know I may seem harsh and unwelcome, but it's necessary for my survival. I don't want no trouble either from your family or enemy forces, I am just a small individual trying to live and survive in the brutal world.
Hope you can understand...." He concluded his speech, throat a bit patched.
No reply. Her head was still lowered appearing down cast silence- no sound, no movement. Not even a twitch
"God! What have I gotten myself onto?" Rex was inwardly sweating, already seeing her reporting him to her family when they came for her " sigh!....'
"Look-" he began but didn't finish
".....I am an orphan...." She said her voice barely a whisper like a soft breeze drifting about, only with his enhanced hearing as he picked on that
"... ohhh-you should have said that earlier! Phew" He said relief setting in, his pounding heart calming down as he wiped non-existent sweat from his forehead.
Jax: "...."
Rebecca: "...."
Disbelief written all over her face: eyes wide mouth agape in shock you could fit a ball in. From her expression, you guess along the lines of her thoughts;
" Is he freaking serious?!" And "how could he be so heartless?"
Registering the weird atmosphere and linking with his last statement, he realized.....
