Planet: Earth

Location: Forbidden Forest

James decided to take a break. We stopped deep within the forest using the trees as protection. Nathan and Lucy both explained to James and Tom the secret entrance into the ROGS hideout.

I sat on a fallen log watching Lucy catch small scaled creatures in the stream of water which flows passed us. She throws a stick she had sharpened into the water and spears a creature.

My eyes diverted to the blue sky above, we have been in this place since the sun had risen. Tom suggested we wait until the cover of darkness.

A hand lands on my shoulder, causing me to snap my head around. I sighed, relieved upon meeting hazel eyes.

"You okay, babe?" James hops over the log and sits beside me.

I could tell the way he spoke James was worried. And I did not blame him, his people were in danger, they had been captured by the very people who had held me captive.

"I am fine, but are you okay?"

He smiled, placing a hand on my thigh as the other gently stroked my cheek. "I'm alright, a little worried. But alright."

"James? What happened between us back in the camp ... what we did, I want to do it again." I could see the excitement flash in his eyes. "I want to feel you inside of me."

"You will, but first we need to free our people—"

"James, there is something else, something I need to tell you." My words caused a frown to flutter across his facial features. "There is so much I am yet to understand about this world, the way you humans think and most importantly feel. James, I know this, I lo—"

"Shit!" Lucy suddenly yelped and begins to limp from where she was standing at the edge of the water.

Nathan and Tom were quick to be by her side.

"Nice," Nathan smirked, his eyes looking at her foot. "I thought you were fishing, not catching your own foot."

"Shut up," she growled. "And FYI, I caught five fish."

"Plus one foot," Nathan teased and then chuckled.

Tom kneels down, "Relax, girl, it's just a scratch. I'll clean it and wrap it up, you'll live."

And with that being said Tom, Nathan and Lucy leave James and I alone.

"Will she be—"

I was cut off by James's lips, he lifted my body up and pulls me over his legs so that I was straddling him. My hands find their way around his neck as I moved my lips against his.

James grips my bottom with one hand while his other one holds my back. "Jewels, I love you," he mumbled against my lips.

I smiled, remembering what he had called it when he was inside of me. I break the kiss, "Make love to me."

******

"Well, the lovebirds finally join us." Nathan smirked, leaning against a tree as James and I walk hand-in-hand. "Seriously, we were about to send a search party." He flicked his curls away from his face. "That is, until—"

"We heard some very odd noises coming from your direction," Tom said, a smirk also on his face.

"Sickening noises you mean, but you're disgusting James. In a forest, really?" Lucy scoffed, rolling her eyes as she brings a piece of—I'm assuming was cooked fish—to her mouth. "I'm pretty sure the whole forest heard you two fu—"

"Lucy," James growled and pulled me to sit down with him on the ground beneath a shady tree. "Ignore her, babe." I noticed Lucy shake her head and then engage in conversation with Tom. "You okay, yeah? I didn't hurt you, did I?"

I smiled and leaned my head against his shoulder. "You were perfect, James. It felt amazing. Although I am a bit sore."

"That's normal, babe." His eyes scanned my face then looked up. I followed his gaze to find Tom standing in front of us. "Tom?"

"Give me your arm, girl." I looked at James, who nods so I stretch my arm out. Tom pulls out a needle from his bag, which causes me to tense up. "Relax, it's to stop you from getting pregnant, now that you and James are sexually active."

"Sexually active? Do you mean when James put his—"

"Oh, good lord." Tom shakes his head, an amused smile on his face. "You'll feel a small prick."

He does not give me time to question because the needle breaks through my upper arm flesh. I flinch but soon enough the needle is removed. "All done."

"Thanks, Tom." James takes my arm the needle had just been in and leaves kisses along my now bruised flesh.

"I'm going to bloody vomit, seriously," Lucy scoffed, her eyes catching my gaze.

Nathan coughed and then laughed. "Sounds like you're jealous, babe."

"Don't babe me, curly." Lucy's eyes shot daggers at him, but Nathan only laughed harder.

"Hey! Don't insult my hair."

"Whatever, goldie-locks," Lucy's statement causes James to chuckle beside me. "We have a few hours before night, I'm gonna get some rest." She pulls a jacket over her face and rolls up into a ball on the ground.

"That's not a bad idea," Nathan responded and sits down beside a tree in front of us. His green eyes disappear as his eyelids close.

Tom walks over to the small fire Nathan had cooked the fish on. "Might as well eat the rest before they go off."

James hummed in response, his arms draped around my body as he pulls me closer to his side. "How are you feeling now?"

"I am fine," oh, I see why he's asking. "Aching a little, but fine."

"Sorry if I was a little rough, I can't get enough of you." I felt his lips against my right temple as he kissed me.

"You were fine, it was amazing," I responded and wrapped my arm over his chest, leaning my head on his shoulder. "I am little scared, James."

"You shouldn't be."

"I do not want to lose you."

"Babe, I promise you won't."

I inhaled a large amount of air. "I am afraid, James. Derek has your people, there is a Zutorian scout here and—"

"Hey," his arms engulfed my body as his lips kissed the top of my head. "We'll be okay, Jewels. I have seen and been through so much in my lifetime. And now I have you, believe me when I say, nothing is going to happen—"

"But you do not know that, I have lost so many, James. I do not want you to be among them." I closed my eyes briefly. "I need to tell you something."

"What is it? I'll listen to anything—"

I cut him off lifting my head so that I could see his beautiful hazel eyes, "James." My fingers traced along his jawline, "James, I love you."

****
Well now, I wasn't expecting that Jewels.

Does she really love him?

Oh and shits 💩 about to go down.
😨🙈🙊
