Private with Sombra Arcana

[Infinite Eclipse]

My heart beat increased and started going a mile a minute as his mouth came in contact with my thigh. After he finished I took the cleaning tools from him and nodded my head. "Yeah, thank you..." she said getting to work on the rest of her body. She tried to push the memories of his touch out of her mind and tried to get the pink blush to go away. Come on Mikayla this isn't very soldier like. You've got to get yourself together.


After she finished washing she stood a bit unsteadily putting her weight mainly on her uninjured leg. "Vaas, what about those robes?" she asked looking around the room for his bag which would contain the clothes.

 

[Sombra Arcana]

Before I went to the bathroom to get cleaned, i turned to her and smiled. Of course! I went towards my bag and pulled out everything I was carrying. I placed the sleeping bag and blanket on the ground, the canteens, the scarf, gloves and goggles on the table and then pulled out my clothing. I had just spare two sets of clothing. I quickly hid my undergarments inside the bag and walked towards the bed with some of the cloths in my hand.


Please rest, Miki. Don't move too much. I'll be back soon. I placed in her hand a set of somewhat baggy, but comfortable pants and a loose shirt that I used to wear when I worked. It was not in mint condition, but it was comfortable. I looked at her and smiled once again. I will leave this here. I grabbed her bag and placed it on the bed out of wishful thinking, since I supposed she had clean underwear there.


Tomorrow, we'll buy ourselves some new robes. I smiled and began to walk towards the bathroom to get cleaned

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

"Okay, thank you," I said and waited for Vaas to disappear into the bathroom before changing into fresh undergarments and the baggy clothing. The clothing was surprisingly comfortable from what I normally slept in. The sleeve hung off one of my shoulders, but it didn't bother me. I placed my bag back on the floor and crawled under the blankets on the bed. I curled up comfortably and pulled a book from my bag that I'd brought along.

 

[Sombra Arcana]

I took my time to clean up the dirt and sand from my body. It took more time than necessary, but as I completed the washing of myself, I changed into the other spare set of clothing that I had. They were also baggy work clothes that matched the ones wore by Miki. As I walked out of the bathroom, I head over to her and smiled as I sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her peaceful self. What are you reading?

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

"A romance mystery novel. I guess you can say it's my guilty pleasure," I said not looking away from the book. Reading was always something I enjoyed doing. It kept me busy since I didn't have many friends. I turned the page and looked up at him with a smile. "I know, it's probably not something you find the least bit interesting," I told him returning my gaze to the pages.

 

[Sombra Arcana]

It might be on my top interests, but anything you like, it peaks my interests. I said with a smile as I looked over to the only window of the place and sighed. I reached for my backpack and brought out a piece of wood out. It was more like a chunk of wood which seemed to have no purpose at all. I grabbed the knife I carried with me on my belt at all times and began carving the wood silently as each of us silently did our guilty pleasures.

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

"You carve?" I asked eyeing the piece of wood he was slicing at. "My dad used to carve. He said it was soothing," I said closing my book and sitting it next to the herbs on the nightstand. I moved over to get a closer look at what he was doing with keen interest. I was now sitting next to him watching him work. "You should teach me," I said not taking my eyes from his hands. "My dad was going to, but he passed before he could."

 

[Sombra Arcana]

I'm sorry about your dad. I said as I lowered the knife and the wood to the bed and then turned and hugged Miki tightly. I really am... I looked around the bag for another chunk of wood and a knife and handed her to them. I find the most soothing peace while I have my hands occupied, so carving is my hobby. The wooden chunk I had, had already been thinned out and was starting to look curvy as if it was trying to resemble a human figure.


I'm going to teach you to carve, Miki. It's what your father would have wanted. I grabbed her hands firmly in mine and began to make subtle movements with hers onto the wood with the knife, trying to show you the correct way of doing the carving.

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

I smiled lightly at the hug. When he placed his hands on mine and started to help me move them I understood what my dad meant. It felt good to have something to focus on. "My dad passed when I was younger, so I'm pretty well adjusted to his death. You don't have to be sorry. He died a war hero right alongside my mom in a border dispute remember? I told you not long after we first met," I told him watching the trimmings from the wood fall.

 

[Sombra Arcana]

Died a hero or not, it's still sad to lose a parent. I know that feeling and it's okay if you want to shed a tear for him. I said as I continued to guide her movements throughout the wood. We were trying to shape the chunk into a mermaid, so it would be a beautiful sculpture, so I treaded carefully. Still, the feeling of her skin against mine was calming and wonderful. It was as if our hands were dancing together, making art and using the stopped time around us to create magical moments for our relationship.

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

"Thank you," I said though I didn't feel like crying. Quite the opposite actually I was in a state of peace. His hands guiding mine felt nice. The wood was taking on shape and excitement coursed through me. "I'm doing it!" she exclaimed a little overexcited. The tail of the mermaid was becoming clearer and clearer as they chipped piece by piece away.

 

[Sombra Arcana]

Yes you...we are doing it. I smiled at her and her excitement as I guided my rough hands and hers to trace every single detail of the tail. We made it look more and more real, using the tip of the knife to simulate some scales on the image that was taking for on the wood. The inner peace, which I felt was enough to make me want to sleep in that woman's caress and never wake up. it was the peace that I was so much longing for.

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

After a while I grew sleepy and my movements slowed. I yawned, but didn't want to stop on an unfinished piece. It was beautiful so far and I wanted to see the task through. I wanted to see the finished product, more I wanted his hands to stay on mine. My eyelids drooped and I found myself dozing off and jerking myself awake again.

 

[Sombra Arcana]

I gently nuzzled Miki's neck and kissed her cheek. We should rest for now. We can finish this little one later. It still got lots of work to do and we have to go even slower with details. I said with a gentle smile as I helped Miki to get back onto the bed to rest. I gave her the only pillow we had on the room, so she could rest, while I was debating myself if I should lay down and sleep beside her or sleep on the chair. Finally, my weariness won me over and I decided to sleep by her side.


In the night, while we slept, my hand crawled from my side and decided to grip Miki's waist and pull her over to me, so we could be cuddling and spooning together. It was an uncontrollable reaction, I wasn't aware of by that time, but it was my earnest desire. It was the first time, I have felt my body had betrayed me.

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

Reluctantly I agreed and allowed him to help me back in bed. I was too tired to argue that he should have the pillow rather than me. I fell asleep almost instantly.


The next morning I woke close to his chest his arm wrapped tightly around my waist and his chin on my head. I smiled and turned in his grip nestling my head against him. I fell back to sleep in a matter of minutes.

 

[Sombra Arcana]

I slowly woke up with Miki's movement and with my blurry sight I could witness what was going on. I had brought her close to me and even dared to grip on her waist as if we were a couple. I would wish we were, but that was too soon to be true. I decided to play and feint ignorance as I faked to be asleep once again and ignore what was happening. Deep in my mind I wanted this to never end because her warmth felt so nice for my body.

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

Later in the morning I woke again and reluctantly maneuvered from Vaas's grasp. Once out of the bed I prodded him awake. "We should get a move on," I said forgetting that we weren't traveling for a few days. My leg felt better today, but was still sore. I picked up the herbal leaves wondering if I should make some tea to ease the soreness.

 

[Sombra Arcana]

I opened my eyes from my fake slumber and smiled at her. I managed to sit up and placed a hand on my head to scratch my messy brown hair. What is the hurry? We're not moving from here in a few days, although we have to go out today and buy clothing, supplies and medicines. I smiled and got up, just to walk behind Miki and hug her tightly from behind. I also began to whisper on her ear.I also want to pamper these beautiful lady I am hugging

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

"Oh yeah I forgot," I said sadly. I wanted to get to the Wind Shrine as soon as possible. When he wrapped his arms around me and whispered in my ear I blushed and looked up at him. "Vaas should we really be doing this? We don't even know each others' last names and we just met a few days ago..." she reasoned even though she wanted to kiss him and hug him and love him.

 

[Sombra Arcana]

Solder... I whispered in her ear as I continued hugging her. I know what you want and that we should go as fast as we can to the Wind Shrine, but we're lacking supplied and you're not in the best condition for a long travel. We have to travel a lot to get to the Water Nation before ever getting near Wind Territory. I said as I kissed her cheek and kept her close. But worry not, for time will come and we shall rejoice as much time as we can together

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

I turned and caressed his cheek softly then smiled a bit. "Okay, but Vaas I think we should maybe try to keep things a bit more professional until we find the Avatar. I can't afford distractions right now with what is all at stake," I said my smile falling as I stepped away from him. I kept my last name hidden and sat down on the bed feeling bad about what I'd said. I wanted to be able to pursue something of a relationship with him, but I needed to focus.

 

[Sombra Arcana]

I understand, Mikayla. I said as my smiled faded away as she left. She was indeed right. We had to be more professional on the work and on our quest. Even though I wanted to be for her and by her and I tried so hard to stretch my hand towards her, we were no more than strangers. I'll be packing everything so we can leave our room in a few minutes. We should be able to purchase what we need. I didn't want to sound cold to her, not even after my heart had been grasped and shattered, but I needed to keep a facade as if nothing was happening. I showered her the most bright smile I could bring although I knew I was faking it.

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

I sighed and grabbed my book off the nightstand and pushed it into my bag. I packed my own things and felt claws clench my heart when he called me by my actual name. I knew the smile on his face was fake and didn't even try to feign one of my own. I put my bag over my shoulder and grabbed my own cloak. I threw it over me, it may be fire nation issued, but I didn't want to have to borrow anything else from Vaas after what I'd just did. I walked with a small limp, but said nothing.

 

[Sombra Arcana]

I looked at her and shook my head. No, Miki. Leave the cloak here and use mine. I insist. I realized that I might have hurt her as much as I did, so I tried my best to brush the tension between us too. It might work out if I try even harder. Maybe I could melt down her icened heart. I cheered for myself as I grabbed her by the waist and helped her move. I wasn't going to treat her like a princess, but I was going to treat her as a woman. I helped her go down the stairs and made sure she wore my cloak before leaving to the streets of the bazaar

 

[Infinite Eclipse]

I blindly allowed him to help me and throw his cloak over me. I wasn't going to argue though his touch made me feel as though nothing had changed between them. After a while I stopped walking my leg was hurting more now. "I need to sit down for a minute...my leg is hurting me," I said looking at the ground. I pulled a few herbal leaves from my bag and put a few in my mouth to soothe the pain.
