States' RPs

[No More Pretending]

He sighed, waiting.


----


She curled up, holding his hand. "Lay with me..."

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

Jasper sat with him after that was done, soon hearing some officers of this planet entering to check things out. He put on an act of looking exhausted and maybe even a bit traumatized


----


Texas cautiously laid beside her, keeping his arms to his aides as he didn't know what exactly she wanted him to do now that he was there

 

[No More Pretending]

He answered all their questions.


----


"Lay with me..."

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

After they went away Jasper smiled over at him "Yer so clever sometimes"


---


Texas hesitantly wrapped his arms around her, hoping he wouldn't get mad at him for doing so

 

[No More Pretending]

"I know."


-


She snuggled close, just needing some reassurance right now.

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

Jasper laughed


---


Texas held her close, trying to offer her the comfort she needed

 

[No More Pretending]

He chuckled.


----


She fell asleep.

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

Jasper got up and went to get Abigail and Cecelia from the closet he had hidden them in


---


Texas stayed awake, blushing and staring at the wall. He was trying not to think this was anything more than just him being her friend. No matter how much he may want it to be something more, it was not

 

[No More Pretending]

She sighed.


----


She snuggled close.

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

Jasper opened the closet door "Ya can come out now" he told them


---


Texas sighed lightly to himself

 

[No More Pretending]

"Why?" Was all she could ask.


----


She woke up.

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

Jasper shook his head "They were wrong 'bout ya'll. Yer not bad people"


---


Texas, thinking she was still asleep, had chosen that moment to try and sneak a kiss to the top of her head

 

[No More Pretending]

"That's what I've been trying to say, assface..." She pouted.


-----


She looked up at him. "Texas..?"

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

Jasper rolled his eyes "Shut yer trap" he chuckled and helped them out of the closet and to a better place to sit and rest


---


Texas blushed brightly "Yeah?" He tried to play it cool

 

[No More Pretending]

She fell onto the couch, closing her eyes.


----


"Are you okay?"

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

Cecelia snuggled close, still very wary of Jasper and Carter


---


Texas nodded "Yeah of course I am"

 

[No More Pretending]

She laid with her, falling asleep.


Carter kept his distance for Cecelia's comfort.


-----


"You sound nervous... I haven't done anythin' wrong, have I?"

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

Cecelia watched them nervously from where she was, too scared to go to sleep. She mostly watched Carter though. She didn't know what to think about him. She was terrified of him, but also wanted to go over and just curl up in his lap


Jasper ignored her for the most part, thinking that if he acted like she wasn't there she would feel better


----


"No, yer fine" Texas replied, blushing all over again when she dropped off the 'g' from 'anything' like he did to words like that. Was she picking things up from him already? And did that mean she liked him, or was se just mocking his accent?

 

[No More Pretending]

Carter walked over and handed her a glass of water.


---


She smiled softly, laying her head on his shoulder. "Just... Let me know..."

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

Cecelia very hesitantly took it, looking up at him then at the glass and back again a few times. She set it aside, afraid it was a trap. Many a time her previous abuser had gotten her drugged on spiked drinks. But she was thirsty now that it had been offered to her. She stared at the clear liquid for a while longer before she cautiously picked up the glass again and took a very timid sip


---


Texas nodded a little bit, pulling her closer and holding her tighter as he looked at the ceiling

 

[No More Pretending]

It was just plain water and Carter went right back to his seat.


----


She blushed lightly. This behavior was strange.

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

Cecelia ended up drinking it all and sat silently, still watching him. After another half an hour or so she slowly got up and started nervously approaching him


---


Texas couldn't very clearly remember the last time he had someone in his arms like this. He thought it was Kentucky, but he had been drunk when that happened and he could be mistaken. None the less it felt nice to lay with someone, he was almost able to pretend there wasn't a war going on outside

 

[No More Pretending]

He looked up. "Do you need anything?"


----


She snuggled closer. "I'm scared... What do you think the allies are going to do when they beat us?"

 

[SweeterThanSyrup]

Cecelia shook her head and took another step closer


---


Texas thought for a moment "Considering what happened after the First World War....I assume they'll make you cut back military by a lot, get rid of weapons and ships and all that as well as men"

 

[No More Pretending]

"Are you wanting to talk?"


---


"That doesn't sound so bad... Will there be another recession, you think?"
