<lcdr_dyson> ::sighs and rubs her neck after putting Jenny down in her crib::
<crop_tlaloco> I like that idea.
<crop_tlaloco> ::walks over to her:: They're both asleep.
<lcdr_dyson> ::looks at him and nods:: Yes.... they are
<crop_tlaloco> ::Rubs her neck:: It's been a long day, Lauren.
<lcdr_dyson> ::sighs softly:: Yes it has.
<crop_tlaloco> About our conversation earlier-
<crop_tlaloco> The one when I mentioned feelings?
<lcdr_dyson> Yes? ::looks at him::
<crop_tlaloco> ::stares into her eyes:: I am as frightened as you are. I have lost everyone I've ever loved.
<lcdr_dyson> ::nods, staring into his eyes:: Me t...too
<crop_tlaloco> I remember when I was a little boy, and my father hit me for something I did wrong.
<crop_tlaloco> I used to look at him and think to myself- That's all you got?
<lcdr_dyson> ::nods::
<crop_tlaloco> Sometimes, when the universe hits me hard, I scream at the gods, That's the best you can do? That's the worst you can hit me?
<lcdr_dyson> ::looks at him:: I had a sister that drowned when she was 2 years old... I was only 8 years old.. and I couldnt do anything. ::sits down on a nearby couch::
<crop_tlaloco> Lauren, sometimes I feel I'm cursed, but I always feel like I'm also blessed.
<crop_tlaloco> I killed my own wife and daughter.
<crop_tlaloco> I had no choice.
<crop_tlaloco> I know what it's like to be helpless.
<lcdr_dyson> ::looks at him:: are you saying you dont want to be .....attracted to me?
<crop_tlaloco> I am saying that no matter how hard life hits me, in the end, life is a blessing. You here- <crop_tlaloco> Your presence in my life is a blessing.
<crop_tlaloco> I may be cursed, but despite all the tragedy, I am also blessed.
<lcdr_dyson> ::smiles:: Thank you.... ::thinks:: You know I never really asked you your name.
<crop_tlaloco> ::smiles:: Olmeoaxaca Wilton Tlaloco.
<crop_tlaloco> The Wilton is from my biological dad.
<lcdr_dyson> Do you mind if I just call you Olme? Its easier to remember
<crop_tlaloco> ::smiles:: It's so much better than Loco.
<crop_tlaloco> What's your own last name?
<lcdr_dyson> Before i was married? ::looks at him::
<crop_tlaloco> Yes.
<lcdr_dyson> ::smiles:: Grant
<lcdr_dyson> Lauren Nicole Grant
<crop_tlaloco> ::smiles:: Lauren Grant. That's an Irish name?
<crop_tlaloco> What's in a name? It is neither hand, nor foot not arm nor face, nor any other part belonging to a woman.
<lcdr_dyson> ::nods:: Aye... that it is.
<crop_tlaloco> Lauren Nicole?
<lcdr_dyson> ::nods and smiles:: Yes
<crop_tlaloco> I find you- irresistible.
<lcdr_dyson> ::blushes and looks down::
<crop_tlaloco> Do you- well, are you-
<lcdr_dyson> ::nods, looking back at him:: I must admit I am starting to fall for you as well.
<crop_tlaloco> And, what you're feeling in the heart- do you feel in the skin as well?
<lcdr_dyson> ::nods slowly:: Uh huh
<crop_tlaloco> ::as if hypnotized by her eyes:: I feel it in my jaw- in my lips, in the small of my back-
<lcdr_dyson> I feel it here... ::she points to her heart:: in my heart. And everywhere else it seems.
<crop_tlaloco> We are here. We are alive. We are blessed.
<crop_tlaloco> ::moves closer to her::
<lcdr_dyson> (q) Yes....we are. ::looks into his dark eyes::
<crop_tlaloco> Then it is our sacred duty to make of this moment a prayer of thanksgiving, spoken from the heart, and uttered on the lips.
<lcdr_dyson> ::blushes again and nods:: (q) Aye... that we should
<crop_tlaloco> ::Kisses her lips::
<crop_tlaloco> this is my life. These are my feelings.
<crop_tlaloco> ::kisses her again:: this is my joy.
<lcdr_dyson> ::smiles as the two part:: (w) Youre not making it easy for me to say no... but then I dont want to say no anyway.
<crop_tlaloco> ::smiles:: So be it.
<lcdr_dyson> ::smiles and scoots closer::
<crop_tlaloco> ::kisses her, breathing quickly, passionately::
<crop_tlaloco> ::whispers:: this is who I am.
<lcdr_dyson> ::wraps arms around his back, then looking into his eyes:: (w) likewise
<crop_tlaloco> ::Kisses her on the jaw, just under the ear::
<lcdr_dyson> ::chuckles:: that tickles....but im not objecting
<crop_tlaloco> :: His fingers make knots in her hair, as he finds her lips again::
<lcdr_dyson> (w) Its fair to say that like is turning to love... or am I speaking too soon?
<crop_tlaloco> You're speaking right on time.
<lcdr_dyson> ::smiles softly::
<crop_tlaloco> Have I known you before?
<lcdr_dyson> Its possible... at least in spirit.
<crop_tlaloco> Where does this go tonight, Lauren? I have to tell you that the untamed man in me-
<lcdr_dyson> ::she nods:: Wherever it takes us...
<crop_tlaloco> talk to me, then- tell me your secret fantasies. Make three wishes.
<crop_tlaloco> ::Kisses her shoulders::
<lcdr_dyson> ::chuckles softly:: I only had one wish since I lost jennys father. ::looks into his eyes:: to find love once again.
<crop_tlaloco> Then it isn't too early to talk about love.
<lcdr_dyson> ::shakes her head:: No it isnt.
<crop_tlaloco> Reclines next to her.
<crop_tlaloco> :: ::
<lcdr_dyson> ::leans back and looks at him, smiling softly::
<crop_tlaloco> Then I must tell you-
<lcdr_dyson> ::smiles:: Yes?
<crop_tlaloco> I fell in love with you and Jenny long ago.
<crop_tlaloco> I fell in love with you because I could see the love in you.
<crop_tlaloco> I sensed it strong and steadfast, and I said nothing.
<lcdr_dyson> ::nods:: I must admit I could tell....but it was after Isamu disappeared that I really took notice. ::looks into his eyes::
<crop_tlaloco> ::looks back at her:: I didn't want you to feel sadness, It would have been wrong to interfere-
<crop_tlaloco> But I dreamed of this moment.
<lcdr_dyson> ::looks at him and nods:: And now?
<crop_tlaloco> ::smiles:: and now my dreams are about to come true.
<crop_tlaloco> But it cost you pain-
<crop_tlaloco> And I regret that.
<lcdr_dyson> (q) but the pain isnt as present right now... ::looked at him::
<crop_tlaloco> ::hardly speaking:: Then let's drown it out completely with a fire of passion.
<crop_tlaloco> er.. I mean a flood.
<lcdr_dyson> ::nods, leaning in to kiss his cheek::
<crop_tlaloco> ::kisses her back::
<lcdr_dyson> (w) I find myself falling in love with you... is that crazy?
<crop_tlaloco> You're asking ME? I'm the one they call Loco.
<lcdr_dyson> ::chuckles:: Not to me..
<crop_tlaloco> But if it IS crazy, then I'm a madman as well.
<lcdr_dyson> I dont care.. they can call ME loco as well and Ill still feel what I do
<crop_tlaloco> ::Closes his eyes and smiles:: mmm. I love to hear you say that.
<lcdr_dyson> ::smiles and leans up against him::
<crop_tlaloco> ::wraps his arm around her::
<lcdr_dyson> ::looks up at him::
<lcdr_dyson> ((i never imagined anything like this...nothing at all)) ::looks into his eyes::
<crop_tlaloco> ::doesn't relax all at once, but gradually his muscle tension melts::
<lcdr_dyson> ::cuddles up to him, kissing him softly::
<crop_tlaloco> {{looks back at her}} It's something you have posessed all along that you awakened.
<crop_tlaloco> ::pulls her close::
<lcdr_dyson> ::leans her head against his chest::
<crop_tlaloco> ::strokes her hair:: It's a connection you learned first with Jenny.
<lcdr_dyson> ::Nods:: {{but somehow it feels like ive had this ability all along...just never used it}}
<crop_tlaloco> {{You have. It's the power of love and passion that unleashes it.}}
<lcdr_dyson> ::smiles up at him:: {{ive heard peoples thoughts before though...long before...I never could figure it out}}
<crop_tlaloco> {{You have awakened.}}
