Sheena sat against a tree in deep contemplation. Her dilemma was simple, yet at the same time, far too complex.
It had been an easy thing to accept the mission to assassinate the Sylvarant's Chosen. It had been the best chance she had to regain her honor, to make up for the worst mistake of her life. The Chosen had been nameless, faceless, and since they were supposedly on the pilgrimage at the moment (as Tethe'alla had a marked Chosen as well) then they were going to die anyways. It was just, by having Sheena kill them, Tethe'alla wouldn't decline in the process.
However, that was before Sheena had MET said Chosen, and now she knew her name.
Colette.
Stupid, stupid, stupid! Sheena wasn't supposed to trade names with her! What kind of ninja was she anyway? And for that matter, what was up with this Chosen? Sheena was trying to KILL her and she wanted to be friends?! What kind of person does that?
It had to be an act, or something. Sheena had seen enough people acting to know that getting her guard down could be what Colette...er...the Chosen was after.
Although...She had certainly seemed sincere...
Sheena had trouble believing Sylvarant's Chosen was real. After all, she was just so...so...nice! And willing to do her duty, even if the end result was her death. She seemed so eager to save everyone; it was like she wanted nothing more then to die to save the world she loved.
She was so, so unlike Zelos.
Sheena flushed, remembering the last encounter she had had with Tethe'alla's Chosen. Zelos was...irresponsible. Sheena closed her eyes and tried to imagine him in Colette's position.
She couldn't, and something in her gut clenched sickeningly at the thought. Zelos in that place, traveling and breaking seals and turning into an angel...
She made a face. He certainly was pretty enough for it, but he acted anything but angelic.
Especially when alone with her.
Her flush became deeper. It wasn't that she had set out to have the...explicit relationship she had with Zelos. Hell, she hadn't wanted anything to do with him at first! He had been so unlike what she had expected the Chosen to be. She had, honestly, expected him to be a bit more like Colette...uh...Sylvarant's Chosen.
She hadn't even known he had been the Chosen when they had first met either. Though, come to think of it, he had been far sweeter to her at first, though he still flirted with her nonstop. She had been wandering about Meltokeo, killing time before going back to the Elemental Research laboratory, when she had nearly run into him.
His first reaction was to flirt with her, naturally, though he had asked if she was alright at the same time. She had been thrown off by his rather 'friendly' behavior so she had automatically gone on guard. Of course, once he had ascertained that she was alright, he had gone into full blown 'charm' mode and shot down all chance to make a good impression on her. It...hadn't been a very good start.
And it stayed that way, with her unable to like such an obvious playboy and him unable to leave her alone. But that was the thing, he refused to leave her alone. Not only that, but despite the heavy flirting he laid on her, he truly had been nothing but sweet and chivalrous. Eventually (she wasn't sure exactly when it happened) he had gained enough of her trust to be called a friend. After that she had started to feel something even deeper then friendship for him, enough to the point where his pestering had turned endearing instead of annoying. She had become flattered by his pretty words, and had even started to convince herself that perhaps his flirting with her was different from what he used with other girls. (Not that she'd ever let him know she felt that way. Not a chance.)
They had been close, Sheena had felt that perhaps she had gotten closer to who Zelos really was then anyone else on Tethe'alla had ever gotten before. She had deluded herself into hoping that maybe she'd get the courage to tell him and he would, perhaps, feel the same.
But then he, as usual, ruined everything.
Again, she couldn't pinpoint the exact moment when it happened, but all of a sudden he started acting far more crass with her then necessary. In fact, he had been downright mean to her more often then not. Teasing her and poking fun at all of her worst insecurities, not to mention flirting with her in such a way that she felt lower then a cheap whore.
Worst of all, though, was when he began to avoid her all-together.
It had surprised her, how much the lack of his presence in her life hurt. Even with his attitude change she had always considered him a friend. She hadn't known what came over him, but not being able to see him, and worse, noticing him blatantly avoiding her whenever their paths did inevitably cross hurt more than anything else.
However, in a way it had also been a relief, not having him there to hurt her like he had been doing until that point. Sheena was conflicted, not wanting to lose him entirely yet unable to figure out what to do with his unexpected character change.
She had been near to giving up on him when something...unexpected happened. Sheena still wasn't certain if the event had been a blessing or a curse, as she was still very much conflicted.
It had all started with a shower.
Sheena had been in the Sybak public showers at the time. The place was high class, but not nearly rich enough to afford private showers for all the students. At the least, it did have a solid wall separating the girl's side from the boy's. As luck had had it, Sheena had been alone when she heard an odd noise outside her stall.
Thinking nothing of it she walked outside, not even a towel on, her hair dripping in her face. She had thought that it was one of the other female students and she had wanted to get out of there as fast as she could so she didn't have to deal with them.
She wiped the hair out of her eyes, and at first glance she thought it had been a woman with her. Long wavy locks like that were more feminine in style then masculine.
Then the color registered, and she felt a brief moment of disbelief.
Then he spoke.
“S-Sheena?”
She could have smacked herself.
“GET OUT YOU DAMN PERVERT!” She screamed, quickly grabbing a towel and reaching for the closest projectile she could find. “OUT!”
He had quickly scrambled out, and aside from a deep blush of embarrassment and anger, Sheena had forced herself not to dwell on it. (excepting, of course, whenever the chance to remind him of it came up. She had refused to let him forget that particular transgression.)
Still, she had felt some sadness then, as the 'shower incident' had been the most she'd heard from him in weeks.
What she hadn't expected was that apparently the 'incident' had flipped a switch of his. He, for some reason, had gone from outright avoiding her to outright harassing and/or 'seducing' her.
She'd become sick of it. Sick of him and his damn bipolar moods with his stupid attitude change. She missed her friend, badly, so with determination that she WOULD get him to take her seriously she hunted him down and cornered him alone to talk.
Sheena flushed, her thighs automatically closing together at that 'particular' memory.
They had 'talked' alright.
She had been near shouting at him, and he couldn't seem to look her in the eye. Half the time, he seemed distracted, barely able to pay attention to her. It only made her angrier. However, when she called him on it he only had one response.
He kissed her.
She hadn't fought him at first because it had felt too damn good to stop. When she did come back to her senses and broke the kiss she still felt that her glare was lacking.
The fact that she couldn't bare to push him away didn't help her any.
He looked at her, eyes burning with a fire she'd never seen before. His hands were on the wall, planted at either side of her. He touched his forehead to her's, his heat encompassing her entire body.
There were so many things showing in his eyes. Desire was one of the strongest, but so was pain, and something else that she wasn't sure she was identifying right.
It looked almost like despair. Hopeless despair...but that couldn't be right.
He took in a deep breath, distracting her from his eyes.
“I want you Sheena.” He whispered to her, his voice laced with such intense desire she could feel herself flush in response.
“I can't help it.” He nuzzled her cheek but she was too stunned by his behavior to protest. “I tried but I just can't stay away from you.”
He took another breath, this one more shaky. “I'm sorry.” He spoke softly, so Sheena could barely hear him.
“For what?” She asked.
Zelos blinked in surprise for a couple seconds. “I said that out loud?” He shook his head. “Forget it.”
Sheena narrowed her eyes. “Forget what? Z-” She was interrupted by another kiss, one more heated.
It took a bit longer to come to her senses and push him away, but at least her glare was more genuine. “Zelos!” She was about to yell at him more but he silenced her with another kiss, one of his hands coming up to caress her face, then he broke contact and spoke before she could. “You want it too. I can tell.”
Sheena cursed her traitorous blush and leveled the most severe glare she could manage at him.
“What the hell makes you thinks I do?” She growled.
He smiled. “This.”
He touched her. She gasped and bit her lip to hold back a moan. She could feel she was wet and now he could too. The bastard.
He leaned forward and whispered in her ear. “This.” Then he gave her another heated kiss, which she responded to helplessly.
“And this.” He growled and pressed himself against her. She couldn't help it, she moaned, the feeling and knowledge of just how turned on he was excited her in response.
“You want it Sheena.” He breathed. “You need it. Just let go for me.” The hand at her cheek moved to brush at her bangs, the other pressed her hips harder to his, grinding his excitement against hers. “Please.” His voice was strained.
She found her hands grasping his shirt, her eyes going to the gem on his chest. “H-how do I know I can trust you?” She asked on a shaky breath.
She glanced up only to spot a flash of what she knew couldn't possibly be despair in his eyes. Because if it were, then she'd have to wonder why it was there. And if she did that...
“You can't.” His voice was certain. Without doubt. His eyes turned to ice.
She didn't liked that. Zelos was...scary when his eyes became that cold. (Though she would later realize that they always had an edge of ice in them, especially when speaking to someone he didn't like.) She wanted to melt that ice, bring back the fire that she had seen. So, against her saner judgment, she kissed him back.
Sheena bit her lip and glanced around her campsite, even though she knew there wasn't anyone around aside from Corrine and her. The little Fox spirit was invisible at the moment, resting in that same place all summon spirits go to when bound in a pact with her...or at least she figured that was where she was.
Corrine being elsewhere was...convenient.
Sheena sighed, feeling her arousal at the memory of that night. It had probably been the best sex she'd ever had up til that point (Not including all the times with him after) and he had been so loving, so sweet, so passionate.
Sheena quickly started loosening her obi. Call it nostalgia, but she was homesick for Tethe'alla and, damn him, just thinking of Zelos tended to make her hot and bothered.
After her obi, she worked on loosing her robe, letting out a content sigh as a breast came free. She hmm'd in appreciation as she started to kneed one, letting her head fall back as she reminisced.
Mmm, that night had been wonderful, ignoring the heartbreak and disappointment that occurred in the morning when he'd left her. Still, even with the disappointment, it was a good memory.
The Chosen was in the habit of giving her good, but bittersweet memories.
She freed her other breast and began playing with them both, her fingers circling and lightly brushing against her taught peaks.
She lounged against the tree, enjoying the sensations, imagining that Zelos was there rubbing them instead.
She imagined his hands along her skin as one of her own trailed down her taught stomach. She squeezed her left breast and teased a finger over her covered crotch, sighing in content.
It had been a while since she'd been able to 'let loose' like this. She'd been far too busy tracking the Sylvarants' Chosen's group.
With a sigh the ninja rolled her hips off the ground, shimmying her pants down in the process. She didn't want to take all her clothes off in case she had to straighten up in a hurry. Her eyes closed as she rubbed her hand along her entrance, remembering how it felt whenever Zelos' hand went down there. He always wore his black gloves, so it wasn't exactly the same. Still, she couldn't help but moan breathlessly at the thought of it.
She thought of him, all fire-red curls and glacier eyes and smooth words and dexterous, friendly hands. She thought of how it felt when he teased her, seduced her, took her; as she let a finger tease at her entrance she imagined him doing it, that infuriatingly smug grin on his face the entire time.
She growled, helplessly aroused but knowing how good it was when the pleasure was staved. She whimpered, only allowing herself to brush lightly against her sensitive nub, her other hand lightly brushing her breast's peak in consolation.
“Zelos, please...” So caught up in her imaginary world she didn't realize she was speaking out loud. She could see his reaction in her mind's eye, for he'd done it before. That smug grin would only grow as he held off for that irritatingly tiny bit longer, before he attacked her with all the passion he had.
Sheena held off for that extra amount of time, feeling herself snarl in frustration, before she mimicked her lover and began stroking herself vigorously. She roughly squeezed her breast, tweaking her nipple as her moans and cries went into the night.
She tried to keep herself relatively quiet, as she hadn't wanted to attract any unwanted attention, but she couldn't help herself sometimes. Her hand released her breast so she could cover her mouth, reminding her of the last time they had been together, with the Chosen moving inside her against one of the castle's interior hallway's walls.
She swirled around the nub, feeling herself getting closer as her mind drifted off to her favorite intimate moments with him. Zelos moving inside her, Zelos kissing and biting, Zelos whispering in her ear...
She bit down hard on her hand to muffle her cry as she came, her pelvis bucking into the air as she rode her high.
She slumped back down to the ground, panting, giving herself only a few moments to recover before she put herself back together. She wiped her hand on the ground, feeling herself flush in embarrassment.
He still effected her so strongly...and yet they were nothing more then strangers with benefits. Not even true friends anymore...
Sheena closed her eyes. She was done crying over him, done longing to tie down that wild horse. It was something she had come to terms with long ago. Zelos wasn't made for relationships, not serious ones at any rate. She refused to let him have possession of her heart as well as her libido.
Besides, she had a mission to take care of. So what if it also kept him from having to go on a sacrificial pilgrimage of his own? This was for her, for Mizuho, and for Tethe'alla.
She would not fail again.
