Healing a Wounded Soul (Junpei)

[Phae]

Phae didn't take too long to wake but seriously who could blame the girl for doing it in the first place when you see the love of your life transform before your very eyes. Her eyes fluttered open and she saw the stranger lying next to her. She turned and looked at him her blue eyes taking him in.

She moved over and touched Junpei... or Angel Jun's hair with her gentle hand. She ran her hands through the silver locks. She looked into the green eyes, those strange eyes. She had never seen anyone that looked so different from Junpei in all her life. The wings. She ran her hands over the wings as she stayed silent for now just taking it all in. She would have fainted tomorrow or next week it was just the reaction she would have had from seeing this kind of change so unexpectedly.

"So... what does this mean? How long do you stay like that? Are you the same Junpei on the inside when you are like this? What does the transformation do to you?" her questions poured out of her as she ran her thumb over his lips. She wanted to kiss him again and very very badly but she wasn't sure if that was an okay thing to do at the moment.

[Junpei]

The touch on his wing sent ripples of pleasure threw I'm, not because of the touch, but because it was her. Having her actually accept them, in some small way, gave him comfort and a moment of euphoria. He smiled at her as she searched his eyes, flickers of grey could be seen in them, very soft grey flakes that showed his true side. Her questions were easily answered, cause it was him, it was his soul, and it was his mind at work, it was just a new appearance.

"First off, it means my soul binded well, a little bit ff but the effects are the same, I'll live a full life. Secondly, I don't know, would say about three hours from my last time, but I can't be sure."

he thought about his next two answers, they would be chosen carefully since they would define him in essence. The thumb on his lips wasn't helping, that smooth skin brushing over his lower lip had him wanting her. Damn her and her enticing.

"I am the same inside, I always will be love, always, I just have few outside changes. The transformation just let's me tap into my magic more... readily. Imagine the words you use to form magic are a wall, this just removes that wall. I can use these feathers as a catalyst to use magic on demand, no words. Sadly it's limited and the more I use it the more magic I drain, this form alone drains magic on it's own. If you want to truly know if it's me however, let this help."

The last three words were whispered as he leaned down and kissed her, the same passion and love flowed through him, along with a slight bit of magic, which was making his lips tingle a bit. he closed his eyes and kissed her deeply, passionately, showing her just how much of him was still in this new form.

[Phae]

Phae listened as he spoke her thumb stopped tracing his lower lip and she listened intently as he spoke. This was important and this was part of her new life with Junpei. She wasn't scared just curious. She could hear in his words though the voice was different that he was still the same Junpei as before.

"You're going to live!" she said happily having forgotten that part of the deal apparently a bit shocked by the form that lay before her. She moved and gave him a tight hug careful of the wings but her eyes suddenly bright as the old Phae's in this moment of good news. She pulled back and settled back down as he finished speaking but over and over in her mind ran the words. 'He's going to live.'

But when he kissed her all was forgotten. Her mind .. blank. Here was the love of her life kissing her and she melted. She kissed him back hungrily and passionatly letting him know in one kiss that she would be allright. That she still loved him. That she would stand by his side no matter what. She pushed her tongue into his mouth and ran her hand gently through his hair his long now silver hair. But she didn't care. Wings or not. She loved this man.

"I love you." she whispered and then before he could answer she pressed her lips to his again.

[Junpei]

hat second kiss, it had him reeling, trying to contain his excitement and lust, she wanted him he could tell. They were both so caught up in each other now, after a week of nothing, after a week of no touching, no feeling, no talking, no familiar scent, oh gods how he missed her. Her hands threw his hair, damn wings, he needed to move to get comfortable with the rather large appendages.

His own tongue lashed out and caught hers in the second kiss, taking over he moved her carefully and used his wing, amazingly not breaking it, to make her and him roll so she was on top of him. He unfurled his wings so they lay across the bed, nearly touching each wall at full spread, and broke the kiss. He quickly pulled her into another though as his wings wrapped around both of them, forming a small and warm cocoon where they could be totally alone and in peace. The very tips, the bottoms, touched his shin and the back of her leg, it felt rather interesting.

Breaking their third kiss he grinned up at her, his green eyes flashing in her blue ones, he saw her needy eyes that mimiced his. Damn him leaving, but right now that was long gone.

"Still think I've changed?"

[Phae]

Phae felt him take control and she gladly gave it over to him. She liked when he did that anyway she had no qualms about being the one getting kissed instead of the kisser. She felt him lift her up and heard his wings move and unfurl as now she lay on top of him. But she smiled .. she couldn't help it to what happened next. Suddenly she was enveloped in the warm cocoon of his wings the small feathers at the end brushing her skin. She moaned and the gentle touches they left on her body. He broke the kiss and she opened her eyes. She smiled as brightly as ever.

"Definatly the same old Junpei to me." she said and chuckled slightly.

And there she was the same Phae. She was still hurt it was in her eyes a bit but there she was in all her glory the happy hyper girl of a week ago. The sweet and gentle happy Phae that took a liking to anyone. But right now she was concentrating on one thing and that was Junpei. She was already getting tired from the energy expension and the food that she hadn't had in her system but at the moment she didn't care what she felt like.

She pressed her lips into Junpei's own again proving to him that she loved him and accepted his new form. She wanted to be with him no matter what. She pulled back raking his bottom lip with her teeth as she slipped her head to the side and began to suck and nibble at his neck. Staying in his sweet spot as long as possible just sucking.

[Junpei]

He laughed a bit at her words but they were quickly ended as he looked into her eyes, she was still hurt, and definitely still in need of nursing, but he knew she would not push herself. Now that he was back he was confident she would know when enough was enough, and she didn't think it was now.

Another kiss had his eyes closed and his wings rusting as a shiver ran down his spine, the sensations coming back so suddenly was amazing. She moved and soon his neck was under attack, his weak point and his one spot where no matter what, she could calm him and get him relaxed.

"Oh Phaedra."

He said softly as his arms came up to envelope her as well, his warm embrace pulling her up a bit he set his forehead to hers, his eyes locking onto hers he leaned up and kissed her gently. Now was the time to focus on health, not pleasure, although pleasure was appealing, he knew she needed strength more than anything.

"I got an idea, why don't we go see Xeryth, and Phoebe tomorrow, and I can explain to them as well. I don't want you're sister hating me after all..."

[Phae]

Phae was lost in sucking on his neck and she loved when he moaned her name out in pleasure. She was definatly aroused by his scent by his presence by everything that was Junpei. But she saw that he wasn't going to let her do anything more than kissing which was annoying as anything in the world can be but she also knew he was only looking out for her.

She looked deep into his eyes and smiled. She heard his words and nodded. Truth was she really wanted to know why Phoebe was here and why she had come so suddenly. She also wanted to thank Xeryth and explain to the both of them though Xeryth probably already knew that Junpei was exactly what she needed to be healed.

"Sounds great. But for now. Will you hold me? Will you hold me please I need you so badly just to hold me as I sleep. I'm so tired." she whispered. She lay down on his chest her head pressed gently against it as she closed her eyes and slipped into a very exhausted sleep.

[Junpei]

He smiled and stroked her hair as she pleaded with him to hold her as she slept, of course he would. She was gone soon and he had only nodded a reply, feeling that sleep was more important to her than anything.

Falling asleep soon after her the spell broke only an hour in, the magic being used much faster since it was fighting his little talks with Harlow as well. Soon the wings disappeared, leaving in soft black and white trails, the eyes reverted back o onyx grey behind cosed eyes, and his hair shorted, as well as his height, and his hair shifted back to black brown.

Smiling in his sleep he pulled Phaedra into him more and nuzzled into her neck without thinking. He loved her, god how he loved her, and right now he was at peace.

[Phae]

Phae slept peacefull for once no tears or dreams. Just peacefully wrapped up in Junpei. It wasn't for four hours when the red head would finally wake up her eyes so close to what they once were. She looked up at Junpei and knew he would need more sleep now that he had used his magic. She crawled off of him gently and smiled seeing that he was back to the same man she had fallen in love with so peaceful in his sleep. She kissed his forehead and took a piece of fruit from the tray and bit into it as she moved over to the desk and wrote him a note.

-Gone to shower be back in a few, Love Phae-

She grabbed some clean clothes and left the room silently and thought about something... where was Loish? She shrugged and went into the bathroom stepping into the shower she moaned as the hot water hit her and she relaxed all the sore over worked muscles in her body. Fifteen minutes later she stepped out and the next ten minutes were spent blow drying her wet hair. Then she stepped into her clean clothes.

She pulled the black pleated skirt up on her hips. It hung a bit loosley but it still fit well. She placed a lavender tank top on her torse that was tight. She brushed her now clean and dry hair and began entered the room once more. She looked over at the bed to see if he was awake.

[Junpei]

He never stirred as she moved, only moving to grab a pillow for replacement warmth, which he frowned at and then crawled under the covers for. To Phae she would come back to see a pile under the blankets, still very much asleep and a little jumbled. Junpei was sleeping, very soundly in his little bedding nest and only his right foot was showing, no idea why but it was.

Rolling he got more tangled in the sheets, still looking for his warm and loving pillow called Phaedra. He was muttering in his sleep, a fight with Harlow.

"Damnit... no you... stop... not that... no... bad... put it down... no... bad... gah!... no get away..."

And so it went on, this small mass of bedding and voice moving about, sleepily and half awake now.

[Phae]

Phaedra saw the mound under the blankets and she couldn't help but smile endearingly at it. Junpei's right foot poked out and she thought it was cute. She couldn't help but smile. She placed her things away and moved back to the bed and sat down on her side laying down next to Jun.

She wiggled the pillow out of his grasp and kissed his forehead as she moved closer to him. She was not tired at the moment and so she cradled his head to her chest her hand running through his hair comfortingly as she began to sing a German lullaby into his ear her soft voice going into his ear a soothing voice. Phae could sing and sing well though no one knew that and she wasn't about to tell anyone even Junpei. But singing him a lullaby quietly in his ear was quite another thing. He may not have understood the words but he would understand the meaning and that was what mattered.

[Junpei]

Singing, it broke apart his fight with Harlow and filled him with relief. It was beautiful singing that made him sleep again, very soundly he slept and snuggled into her tightly as she sang. It brought back thoughts of his mother, years ago, holding him like this and had him squirming in his sleep abit, trying to get ahold of something that was not there.

He murmured mom, or mother, in his sleep and nuzzled ever harder into Phaedra, trying to get that same safe feeling from her, and it came when his head settled over her heart and the sound of it thumping away settled him. he quietly snuggled in once more and set to work dreaming of her, of being happy, of having a family. Gods yes she would make a perfect wife, and mother to, he loved knowing that. The feeling that you would one day be able to settle back and just enjoy life with someone you love, it elated him.

"Love you... Phaedra..."

He murmured once more.

[Phae]

Phaedra continued to sing as she held the love of her life to her chest. He nuzzled into her and she held him even tighter her hand still roaming through his hair comforting him. She saw him relax and saw him fall into a true sleep once more but she did not stop singing. She kept her eyes open and sang the same song over and over again.

"Love you... Phaedra." he mumbled in his sleep and she couldn't help but smile.

"I love you Junpei." she whispered in his ear giving him another kiss on the forehead and she went back to singing.

She lay her chin gently on the top of his head and continued to sing to him. A song of love and a song of sweet memories. Yes, it was in German but from what she could tell Junpei didn't mind a bit.

[Junpei]

He slept another thirty minutes, his body relaxed in hers and his eyes closed, so lightly they seemed to flutter when they did open. When he did awake he immediately knew where he was and he heard the German singing from above. Feigning sleep he listened to her beautiful singing and smiled a bit, oh how glorious she was. She sang like an angel, a gorgeous angel who could get him threw anything, and she could.

Finally deciding to let her know he was up he sharply leaned up and kissed her neck, right under the chin an then nibbled and sucked his way down to the base of her neck where he placed one last gentle kiss and then looked up at her.

"You sing beautifully love, very very very beautifully."

He smiled a bit and pulled himself up a bit, so he was eye level with her, and kissed her good morning, a soft and lasting kiss that left him wide awake and alert to the world around him. When he broke the kiss he closed his eyes again and lay his head on a pillow, keeping her close.

"How long have you been up?"

[Phae]

Phae was still singing her eyes closed momentarily as she stroked his hair gently keeping him asleep and comfortable and away from the bad dream he had been having. She stopped immediatly though when she felt his lips on her neck and knew he was awake. He followed through by laying several tortously arousing kisses and nibbles on her neck and here she was trying to be good and rest.

She sighed at his words. Damn he had woken and listened. She only hoped he didn't ask her to sing often because she was very shy about her singing. It was probably the one thing she was truly shy about.

"Good morning, love." she said and kissed his temple trying to calm herself down from his mind controlling kisses of earlier. "I have been awake about two hours." she said answering his question.

"I was hoping we could go out today. For a walk, or for lunch, or maybe to a movie? Something outside?" she asked hopefully. "I know we're going to see Phoebe and Xeryth today but I want to go somewhere just us. And I've decided, I want to take you home. To meet my family, soon. Like as soon as I am well. I want us to go for a week just us a vacation together." she whispered to him obviously having done a lot of thinking while he was asleep. "What do you think?"
