Having calmed down considerably, Vicki listened to Jack's heartbeat, suddenly aware of how close they were and smiled at his words. "I... Jack... You're so warm..." |

She felt...safe in his arms...and right then it seemed all her fears just melted away. "Did you really mean what you said before... Do you... Do you really think I'm...I'm...beautiful...even with-....."Vicki asked quietly, her voice trailing off as she looked up at Jack, jade eyes searching his. She wanted to believe it was true...that someone really thought she was beautiful but was almost afraid that it had just been empty words and nothing more...[/scrolly][/td][/tr][/table][/center]

Her quiet words were more than soothing, and slowly Jack was tearing away from the panic. She loved him, and that... was enough... As she spoke a little louder and asked the question, he finally released from the hug. Purple eyes scaled over Victoria's form, and after a moment, he slowly smiled looking back up at her and offering a cheesy grin. "You're right... not just beautiful... perfect is a much better word, huh?" he asked with a smile. Raising a hand and setting it on one of her shoulder scars, Jack stopped a moment before tracing his finger down it. "These... just make you more real... make you more perfect...," he said after a moment. "It's all just you and you're perfect and..." Jack suddenly paled as the reflection that he had given her some of these scars came to him. Flinching back, he set a hand over his mouth and paled even more. "I..... made some of those..huh?" he asked weakly. No, it had been Ripper, but...but....

The words he spoke made Vicki feel as if she was walking on air and her eyes glistened with unshed tears. That Jack would tell her she was perfect was more than she had ever dreamed would happen...more than she thought could happen. Shivering slightly as Jack traced one of her scars, Vicki beamed up at him as he continued. Upon seeing Jack's sudden change, Vicki's eyes grew wide with concern until he spoke again. The realization that Jack blamed himself dawned on her and Vicki shook her head emphatically. "No....NO.....don't you DARE think that..."Vicki replied in a calm, firm voice as she stepped closer to him and put a hand on his cheek,"I chose to come there that day Jack... I chose to confront you when Ripper took hold. It was ME understand...? Ripper did this NOT you..."Vicki continued, her eyes staring intently into Jack's before kissing him briefly,"I would do it all again in a heartbeat you know.... I love you Jack...and NOTHING will ever change that..."[/scrolly] |

Reaching up, he pressed her had between his cheek and his other fighting off the rush of blame that was coming regardless. He'd hurt her.. he'd let Ri-- His thoughts were cut off as Vicki continued to speak. Ripper had... done it... but... but he'd let him, hadn't he? Jack had let this.... The kiss jumped up his thoughts, and as she finished, he was left standing there wondering how he had found such a woman. How had ... he managed to find someone that would stay with him through... everything? She was ....again too much, but he never wanted to push her away because of that least... he lose her. He didn't want to lose her, not for anything. Pulling her yet again into a hug, he inhaled and exhaled. "I love you too...." he replied quietly.

As Jack breathed, Vicki simply remained silent, hoping that her words would erase any doubt about what happened that day. She would be lying to say that she hadn't been scared...and the prospect of having to face Ripper again certainly wasn't pleasant but if it was to save Jack... There was no doubt in Vicki's mind that she would face it. At his next words, Vicki smiled and looked up at him,"I love you so much..."she replied quietly, just now realizing how tired she really was especially after the roller coaster of emotions,"Mmmm we should probably get out..."she continued in a quieter voice still.

After a moment or so, he released her and managed a smile. "Yeah..." he replied quietly taking her hand and leading her out of the bath. Though he thought to pick up his towel for a moment, Jack simply didn't and instead started into the room again before walking to and flopping on the bed - his nude wet self probably coating the sheets in excess water. He hadn't realized until then how tired he was, but damn this bed felt comfy... not as comfy as Victoria though, of course.

Pausing only a moment to wrap the towel around herself and grab the other towel she had brought out, Vicki followed Jack back into the room only to see him flop onto the bed. Laughing softly, Vicki threw her other towel she had used to drape around her shoulders earlier at him,"C'mon Jack get dressed,"she said quietly before moving to her bag and removing more suitable nighttime attire than the kimono she had been wearing earlier and heading to the bathroom. Changing into the simple red and black pajama bottoms and the matching t-shirt, Vicki wrapped her hair up in the towel, picked up the kimono she had worn before and exited the bathroom hoping that Jack had at least gotten dressed by then. Well...the sheets were still soaking wet at any rate hmmm...going through the current Pokemon in her team, Vicki put the kimono in her bag before fishing out a pokeball. Good thing she had thought to bring a fire type along...though it was really only because the Torchic had insisted she absolutely had to come...really, Edana could use more training but eh she could help out in this case.
Releasing the Torchic, Vicki smiled at Edana's little chirp of delight and chuckled,"Edana, I need you to do a gentle Heat Wave on the bed mmk, I just need the sheets dry, not burned,"Vicki said quietly before gesturing to the bed. Edana nodded in determination and hopped on the bed before using the move, making sure to do exactly as she was told. Before long the bed was once again dry, no doubt the sheets would feel as if they had just come out of the dryer which was certainly fine with Vicki, she had started to get cold again after coming out of the warm water. Murmuring a quiet 'thanks' to the Torchic, Vicki returned her and removed the towel from her head, draping it over a chair and tossing the pokeball in her bag before climbing into bed, sighing in contentment at how warm the Heat Wave had made the sheets. "Mmmm coming...?"Vicki murmured sleepily as she closed her eyes, too tired to hear the answer to her own question.[/scrolly] |

Blinking as he found himself not quite suffocated by towel, the purple haired man reached up and pulled said towel off his face just in time to clearly hear the order that was given. "How about I don't and you just come and lay down with me," he replied, but it didn't seem that she had heard his response -or more likely she had just ignored it- as he watched her go over and fish out her own clothes before heading to the bathroom. As the door closed, he all but flopped back down, not really wanting to get up. He could just doze like this....
Whether it was habit or just word directed impulse, Jack didn't know, but a few seconds after, he found himself flinging his legs over the side of the bed and standing up, his muscles rolling over bones and causing them to pop even as he did so. "Damn I'm getting old..." he chuckled to himself not even really believing his words. Slowly walking over to his bag, Jack began to fish through what he had and ended up sliding on some boxers. He didn't actually have any other nightwear on him besides that at the moment, and though he was pretty sure it might unnerve Victoria, he wasn't about to pull on rough shorts.
It was shortly after that, that he heard the bathroom door open and looked back to find her standing there in her pjs. The colors fit her well, but... Mentally shaking his head, he sighed and was about to say something when it seemed she was fishing out a pokeball. What? As the Torchic appeared and the order was given, Jack actually remembered the bed had been wet. Ah, that made sense... Not like we want to get sick... Third sighed mostly as an after thought. That was actually laughable considering BJ couldn't remember a time he was extremely sick...
After a moment, he realized she'd said something. Blinking, Jack looked over and got into the bed snuggling up close to her, not admitting the fact that her clothes were now separating them was actually a little upsetting. Wrapping his arms around her, he breathed inwards and smiled. "Seeya in the morning..." he mumbled. Or maybe in my dreams... he mentally chuckled to himself. BJ, you're a dork... Third sighed.

This was...nice...she could certainly get used to this... Too tired to respond in turn, Vicki simply snuggled into Jack's warmth and before long surrendered to sleep.
Morning came and Victoria was still sleeping quite soundly until the sun shone directly on her face. Groaning softly, Vicki shifted so as to hopefully block out the sun but to no avail...she was already awake. Blinking sleepily, Vicki opened her eyes to find Jack lying beside her...that was right...they weren't at the lab and... Vicki smiled at the realization that she had actually slept through the night without any horrific nightmares for what seemed like the first time in weeks. Jack's arms were wrapped around her in his sleep...it felt...nice...and Vicki found herself making up excuses to stay that way. Snuggling closer to him, Vicki rested her head on his chest and sighed. Last night's words came back to her and Vicki found herself wondering how someone like Jack loved her...it just...seemed too good to be true...[/scrolly] |

Thus, he slept harder than usual, and wherein the sun would have woken him up sooner or later, it didn't seem that it was affecting him at all. It was only after Victoria started shifting around that he was pulled into semi-consciousness. "Venneh stop squirming...." he mumbled before his breathing leveled out again as though he had gone back to sleep. It wasn't until thirty minutes later that he finally opened one eye and stared at the blinding thing people called a sun. Shutting his eye, he breathed in finding a head on his chest. A tentative eye opened again and stared down at silver hair. Reaching a hand up, Jack ran his finger slowly through her hair. "Mornin'...sorry I didn't get up and grab breakfast hahaha..." he chuckled weakly.

"I guess we should get up though..." he sighed slowly sitting up and stretching as he did so. For a brief moment, he looked back towards Victoria before grinning a little. "Morning dip sound good?" he asked with a cheesy grin.

Jack was just so comfortable and Vicki found herself wishing she could stay like this for a while when Jack said they should get up. As Jack sat up, Vicki sighed and sat up as well albeit reluctantly before leaning against Jack, still not wanting to get up just yet... At the suggestion, a shadow of fear passed over Vicki's face, tensing slightly as she remembered what had happened last night...thankfully her hair hid most of her face so Jack hopefully hadn't noticed it. Jack had said that he was sorry and...Vicki trusted him but...she couldn't just forget about it so easily... Still, she wasn't quite sure how to explain why the thought frightened her and opted to attempt to make a joke out of it. "My hair's still wet from last night though...."Vicki half-laughed as she forced herself to smile,"...and I don't think the restaurant would appreciate having a sopping wet floor..." Looking away from Jack, Vicki hoped that Jack would buy the rather lame explanation of sorts...somehow she doubted it...[/scrolly] |

At the explanation, though, he stared for a few seconds before laughing. Some part of him wanted to buy it. Some part of him wanted to say that was all it was, but a part of him, somewhat closer to Third, was skeptical and worried. Rather than ask and possibly point out something he didn't want to see, Jack did his best to let it go. After a moment, he cooled his laugh and slowly swung his legs out of bed. "Yeah I guess so," he replied weakly before standing up from the bed and walking over to fish in his bag. "Guess we should head back today, huh?" he asked looking slowly back at her as he pulled on a red t-shirt and black pants- something a bit different from his more casual colors.

Pulling the covers aside, Vicki couldn't suppress the shiver at how cold the room was in comparison to the nice warm bed. Moving over to her bag, Vicki rummaged through it before finding the red and black long-sleeved shirt, undergarments and jeans she had been looking for before hearing Jack's question. Shivering slightly at the cold, Vicki was beginning to rethink her answer to Jack...eh there would be time for that later... "We don't have to leave immediately..."Vicki said after a moment as she watched him pull on his shirt and pants before another thought brought a smile to her face,""Besides...didn't you say that you wanted me for the weekend...?"[/scrolly] |

"There's a lot of stuff up north that's not down south," he continued. Third remained silent word wise but sighed.

The prospect of flying to the mountains certainly didn't sound pleasant...and if she was cold now Vicki could only imagine how cold the mountains would be. "Maybe...."Vicki replied after a moment,"I'll need warmer clothes though..."she continued in a lower voice, more to herself than anyone else. Shivering again, Vicki looked at the clothes she still held in her arms and half-laughed,"I'm gonna change really quick,"she said before heading to the bathroom and closing the door behind her. A few moments later Vicki came out of the bathroom carrying her pajamas, feeling considerably warmer now. Heading over to her bag, Vicki stuffed the pajamas inside and pulled out her brush, mentally kicking herself for not having the foresight to brush it last night, nevermind that she'd been exhausted...no doubt it would be a tangled mass by now... As Vicki began to attack brush her hair it was becoming more and more obvious that the tangles were going to take a while to get out. Every so often a particularly bad tangle was snagged by the hairbrush resulting in a pained flinch from Vicki....ugh...[/scrolly] |

"Hey that's what money's for," he replied. "And I always have a card on me or cash." He then watched as she disappeared into the bathroom to change. Sighing, he looked at the bed and thought about flopping on it before shaking his head pretty aware that he would just go back to sleep if he did so. Walking around slowly instead, he examined the various things in the room up until Victoria came out again. Looking towards her he watched as she started over and fished out a brush before clearly having some problems with it. Turning slowly around again, he walked over to her and took the brush from her, bringing a hand up under her hair and brushing it that was, he started to work the knots out with a surprising gentleness. "Ya got to be patient with it..." he said quietly closing his eyes as he continued to brush her hair memories flickering on different matters.

Blinking in surprise, Vicki looked at Jack from the corner of her eye as he began to work the knots out. Vicki half expected to feel the familiar pain that came with pulling out knots but Jack's touch was...gentle... If it wasn't for his hand underneath her hair and the sound of the brush Vicki wouldn't have felt a thing. Hearing his voice, Vicki nodded slightly, a blush coming to her face for reasons she couldn't quite explain. For a while Vicki remained silent, listening to the soft sound of the brush as Jack worked it through her hair. Once again Vicki found herself wondering why someone as special as Jack would have chosen her of all people...somehow it all felt like a dream... "Why me...?" |
[/size]The words were out of her mouth before Vicki realized that she had spoken the thought aloud and grimaced... She hadn't meant to say that but it was too late to take the words back now much as she wanted to...[/scrolly][/td][/tr][/table][/center]

Though her hair was longer, the texture of it reminded him of Cassi's... Those times when she'd get knots in her hair and get upset with them... they were better times... times when there wasn't much to worry about besides something trivial like that... As Vicki asked the question, Jack stopped in mid-motion not understanding the context in which she was in. "Huh? It's not pulling is it?" he asked stopping the brushing for a minute.
