Tana Present 2

"Hey Smokey, I'm so grateful for what you did for Tana but, I need you to leave for the day, she and I have an... appointment." I was glad V announced his presence instead of acting out in rage as soon as Insinz said he missed me. 

"Did you not miss me too?" Insinz said, ignoring V completely and stepping into my room. Can't he read the room?! What am I supposed to say right now? Of course, I missed him, but...

"She didn't and I told you to leave," Vetro said, this time angrily grabbing Insinz by the shoulder, my heart ached and I cringed but when the hand harmlessly phased through, I was relieved. V lost his balance slightly and again tried to grab Insinz from different angles but all he got was a handful of smoke.

"Sorry but... you're not allowed to touch me," Insinz stated, finally turning to look at V whose face was red with rage. "Oh but it's no problem, I'm glad I could help her... I had to remove the poison in her veins too, along with that curse. She almost died." His last statement sounded accusatory and V laughed bitterly,

"The heck? If she died, it would have been her fault... plus I called for you immediately. She wasn't in any danger." Insinz... cured my poison too? Why didn't he tell me?

"... Thank you for that." Insinz said with a smile which caused V to frown deeply, "I could always see the curse on her... it took me a while to find the source. I'm glad I was finally able to free her. Actually, all curses are visible to me, like the one on you." V stood stunned,

"What?" 

"Yes... you have a curse on your mind... have you never noticed it before?" Insinz delivered a convincing puzzled look and V felt his head frantically. "You should go." In that instant, Vetro froze in place, his pupils dilated, and he walked down the hall, dragging his feet and muttering something about needing to go. "Now... are you happy to see me or not?" Insinz asked, turning back to me. My mouth dropped open...

"What did you do to him?" He began stepping in my direction, speaking at the same time.

"A curse... well actually it's just a fungus that he inhaled by attempting to grab me." He was finally close enough, so he hugged me and buried his face into my breasts. "I missed you." This whole time I never thought I could rely on Insinz, even when I felt myself falling for him.

"Did you do that to me?" I asked, he looked up at me curiously, "Did you use some kind of mind control on me too?" He frowned looking offended.

"Why... no... of course not... Do you think I had to use poison on you, to make you care for me?" He paused then let me go, "If you believe that, I should go." As he got to his feet I grabbed his hand and screamed,

"Wait!" I squeezed tightly, "I'm sorry... I just never felt this way before! It's confusing, and then you sent V away so easily! I am in shock but I shouldn't have said that! I missed you too... so much... I just saw you yesterday but it's the truth. I missed you so much I think I might be going insane." He pulled away from me and walked towards the exit. I guess an apology can't fix everything. If one isn't enough I'll keep trying until he understands. He then shut and locked the door, activating my privacy barrier.

"I almost forgot the lock." After saying this he ran back and tackle-hugged me onto the bed. I giggled hugging him back. "It would be annoying if someone interrupted us again..."

"You worried me... I thought you were leaving." I felt afraid while admitting this but he placed his forehead on mine and then said in a soothing voice,

"If that was enough to scare me away. I never would have fallen for you in the first place." My heart fluttered and then he added, "Your heart is racing,"

"O-oh..." His pointing it out only makes it worse. "When did you fall for me?"

"From the moment I saw you... I could always see the curse and how it afflicted you... and when you weren't yourself the energy around you changed... But when I first met you, you were you... this you. You treated me gently and took good care of me and you have always been so lovely to me. I couldn't wait to grow up so I could hold you like this." He admitted while lightly grinding against me. 

"That long?" I asked,

"Oh yes... even when I was 5 I wanted to do this with you," He murmured while kissing down the center of my breasts.

"That's gross! Don't say that!" I shouted while pushing him away. My response made him laugh.

"Is that a problem? I kept looking for chances to be alone with you so I could-"

"Stop polluting my precious memories!" I shouted, covering my ears. I prefer thinking he was just an innocent young man, who enjoyed my company. Insinz kissed the back of my hands twice then gently moved them away,

"I'm just messing with you... you're just so adorable, I couldn't resist teasing you."

"Please do resist better in the future!" He laughed again when I said this, then cuddled me. "I feel like... I don't know enough about you... but I still fell in love with you... How is that possible?" He grinned widely,

"Oh wow... you're being so honest... in love with me, huh?" I covered my face.

"I told you to stop teasing me!"

"I'll tell you whatever you want to know about me... I was looking forward to passing the time another way but if you want to talk, I'll oblige." I peeked out at him then turned my head to the side so I could gather the courage to say,

"We... can talk afterward." He sat up and stroked my cheek.

"No pretenses this time about why we're doing this?" I squeezed my eyes closed tight, too shy to utter another word. "Even if you don't tell me I can see it, ever since last night emotions and thoughts appear to me as colors wafting off of you... I can, clearly, see that you want me, but it'll still be nice to hear you say it out loud." He can?! I was wondering what 6 marks would cause... I knew at the very least he'd be able to read my thoughts and the range of his powers would grow but I didn't think that even the barriers on my mind would become useless against him.

"I... want to... be intimate with you... with no pretenses... I want you." I looked up into his eyes and I saw how my admission flustered him greatly. We kissed and then became bonded together. I thought after this war ended, and my brother was dethroned I would never let anyone be with me again. I'd leave this planet and never hope for romance,

"You're so lovely... and your thoughts are more beautiful... God Tana... How are you so adorable?" being complimented by him while we were connected was too much for my heart to process, so I put my hands over my face. "Please Tana... don't hide from me, I like looking at you." Reluctantly, I revealed my face. Insinz smiled in response then he pressed his lips to mine again and held my thighs against his hips. So I put my arms around his shoulders and focused on keeping my voice down as we made love. It felt so intense that my brain went blank and all my worries disappeared. When we both expended most of our energy, we lay curled up together on my bed with him stroking my head as he started his story,

"I spent most of my time to myself... I can be a bit of a loner, but Netalai and I are friends. Rytem is a bit possessive so we can't hang out very long but we talk sometimes, he's a very kind and well-balanced person, unlike most of the people here... I get lonely easily, but it's hard to ask for someone to fill that loneliness so I don't." ... I guess we have that in common, "I can see you're empathizing with me."

"Hey! It's hard on me... knowing you can see through me already, but when you point things out like that, I feel uneasy." He touched my cheeks and I closed my eyes in response.

"Another thing to know about me is... I love teasing you... making you flustered, horny, frustrated, or uncomfortable. Nothing else brings me more joy."

"Get a new hobby!" I retorted with a pout. He laughed and pecked my lips. "I never saw you talking to the others," I commented.

"Netalai is shy. So when there's a crowd of more than 3, he can't talk. Also... I did talk to the others, I used to fight with Zai all the time." I gasped and touched his arm,

"Why?!"

"Over you." His revelation struck me, "You always avoided me and paid extra attention to him, and he didn't even appreciate it. He'd talk shit about you, and it would piss me off." I've never heard him cuss before!

"... How... did the fights end?" I asked as I took ahold of his hand.

"In a draw... whenever either of us took things too far Valin would increase the gravity, pin us both down, and scold us for fighting amongst each other. That would tick me off too... he'd never let us finish things."

"I'm glad it ended like that... I would have been sad if either of you got hurt beyond repair." He scoffed so I added,

"I paid attention to Zai because I knew he wanted to overthrow the King and had the most potential to pull it off... I wasn't in love with him! I just admired him and wanted him to get stronger!" Once I explained this, Insinz intertwined our fingers,

"Onto the next thing... I don't like my hair color but no dyes work so I'm stuck with it." 

"What's your favorite color?" I asked.

"Red... well... it became my favorite after you wore that lip gloss for me," I grumbled and hid my face under a pillow. After calming myself I turned back to him and said,

"I ... like purple... and pink." He looked shy, he must be blushing too.

"Well... I'm glad one of us likes it." He leaned forward for a kiss another time, so I quickly complied, making him smile again.

"Okay... my turn to confess." He raised his eyebrows, scooting slightly closer to me,

"I've mentally prepared myself." His reply caused me to smile but made me even more nervous about what I was about to say,

"I've... never had an orgasm before... before you." It was easier just thinking about the sentence in my head, once the words left my mouth it felt like I might explode from the anxiety,

"Never?" I nodded rapidly... "Ten thousand years and.... never?" I put my free hand over my face, hiding my eyes with my fingers.

"Before it was just a physical activity, I had to get through... usually I felt nothing... or I felt pain... even when I enjoyed it, I only looked forward to getting it over with. But with you, it was wonderful. I thought orgasms were exaggerated or a myth before being with you..." His expression brightened then he kissed the back of my hand over and over, I giggled. "I'm being serious!" He began kissing my neck, and it tickled so I laughed louder.

"I seriously love you. I'm serious too. I feel great, praise me more!" 

"You are so goofy! I am getting embarrassed for you!" I shouted, rolling over with my back to him.

"You love it." He accused, whilst hugging me from behind. "Now me again... you're the first person I've been with." I gasped, Insinz is already an adult now and he certainly seemed to know what he was doing...

"Only me?! But... you... um... performed so well for a virgin." He grinned again but I could tell he was also feeling bashful from my compliment because his body got hotter.

"Well.. you're the only person I ever wanted so, why would I sleep with someone else?" I had to hide my face under the blankets to continue the conversation,

"Not even with a maid... or a woman outside the castle? ..." He pulled the comforter away then pinned my shoulders down so I rolled onto my back. Then he kissed me deeply, rubbing his tongue against mine.

"No... If I seem experienced it's probably because of the millions of times I've imagined doing this with you." My temperature started to skyrocket,

"Millions?! Isn't that too big of an exaggeration!?" He tilted his head at my comment,

"I'm not exaggerating."

"You haven't even been alive 1 million days!" Insinz laughed then,

"It would surprise you how much I think about you Tana... I haven't even tried out one-tenth of what I've done to you in my mind... and if you could see what I was thinking, you might run away from me." I fanned myself and decided it was time to change the subject,

"Um... Is that... thing you did to Vetro... permanent?" I asked finally. I got so caught up I forgot to ask such an important question!

"Hmm... No. He should be sleeping now... it would take longer for something permanent to take effect."

"So, he might come back?!" I shouted and hurried out of bed to get dressed.

"Don't worry... he won't return... at least not until I'm in my room." 

"You ... seem too confident in that timeline... are you controlling the spores remotely?" He shrugged,

"You're a good detective when you want to be... his immune system will locate and kill the fungus in 12 hours; maybe 10, because his is especially strong. It plants roots deeply into his Hypothalamus and sends signals to the rest of his brain from there. I can end the effects early, but I obviously won't let him find me here, and he shouldn't remember anything so, relax." I finished pulling on my raggedy, dingy gown and rustled my hair up for good measure. "You know... with your body, you look hot no matter what you wear."

"That is not what I want to hear right now!... Oh... but I love you too... sorry it took me a while to say it back."

"If you say it 10 more times... while on your knees... and hold your tongue out, I'll show you my forgiveness." 

"Stop joking like that! The heck?!" He laughed and fell over kicking his feet. "Get out of my room! ... I'll see you in the morning." He got out of bed with a grin still on his face, even as he got dressed and left. He wasn't kidding about loving to tease me, I thought my heart would never stop racing... When I woke up the next day my room was filled with piles of the flowers that Insinz had gotten me before. There was a potted version on my desk with a note. "I hope I brought you enough this time" How ... am I going to hide all of these before V sees... We haven't even discussed an escape plan!
