Val / Emmerick

Words: 2014

7 JULY 2077
The alarm rings. Val rolls over in her bed with a groan. It's early evening, she slept just a few hours. She yawns when she sits up in her bed and picks up her agent.
 
I've got a gig tonight, done 'round 6 am.
Wanna drop by?

You even have to ask?
MB H10. We can grab some food at the entrance.
Gimme a call when ya here.

Will do.
 
8 JULY 2077
Val just came home from the gig. She takes out her agent. 5:45 am, he's off in 15 minutes.
 
Gig went well, I'm home.
Waiting for you xoxo.
 
She puts her agent on her desk, checks her mails, nothing new. Weapons into storage, clothes off, radio on.
 
Just a quick shower to get rid of dust and dirt from the gig. The braids are new, so no hair wash. Nibbles is complaining in front of his bowl and Val feeds him before putting on clothes. She's looking around her apartment while she tucks her top into the hot pants and decides to tidy up a little.
 
Then Emmerick calls. “Hey.” Val smirks at him via the holo.
Hey. I'm here.” His voice is calm.
Val slips into some sneakers. “I'll come pick ya up... go choose somethin' to eat.” She leaves her apartment.
I'm allowed to take the tab?” Emmerick smirks and Val chuckles. “This time, yeah.
 
 
The elevator reaches the first floor and Val looks around after leaving it. It's busy like always, typical for a megabuilding, regardless of the time of the day. But she finds Emmerick quickly, he's big enough to stick out while he's standing in front of a food stall, handing over some eddies.
 
She steps beside him. “Hey there, big boy.”
He turns around with a slight smile. “Hey, gorgeous.” And leans down to kiss her. “Damn, I've missed ya.” He murmurs against her lips and Val chuckles. "How long since we've seen each other? Three days?" Well, last time she left him with a hard-on.
He kisses her again. "Three days too many."
The vendor puts a bag with their food on the counter and Emmerick takes it.
“Come.” Val grabs his other hand with her smaller ones and leads him towards the elevator.
 

07:SERVICES

 
She doesn't let go of his hand at the elevator and he leans down to kiss her again. Bit greedier this time.
Val pulls back with a chuckle. “Let's have some food first.”
“I'd rather snack you.” Emmerick steals another kiss.
She releases his hand and puts both of hers on his chest to hold him back. “I'm sure, you would.” She smirks. “But I'm starving. So let's save that for dessert.”
 
The elevator stops and Emmerick sighs. “Fine...” He eyes her while she leaves the elevator and looks at her butt for a moment, before he follows her through the seventh floor.
“Oh, you have a gym...” He looks around slightly interested.
She shrugs. “Well, I don't use it.” She nods towards the training bot. “I've trained a bit with that one.”
“Yeah, I've seen your moves up close.” He looks down at her arms and remembers the Mantis Blades at his throat pretty well. She chuckles.
 
After entering her apartment Val slips out of her sneakers. “Make yourself at home.” She nods towards the couch. “If ya don't like the music, just switch it...”
Emmerick looks around a little, puts the food on the coffee table and takes off his shoes after he sits down.
Val walks over to the storage room. “Beer, cola or...?”
“Beer,” Emmerick answers quickly.
 
Nibbles jumps from the bed, stills and looks at Emmerick skeptically. Emmerick looks at the cat, then at Val when she puts two bottles on the table. Then his gaze falls on her chest, where the outlines of her pierced nipples show through her tank top.
She sits down beside him, one leg folded under the other. “Just ignore him, he's shy with new people.” Val leans forward to grab a noodle box and then back on the couch. Nibbles walks over to the bean bag besides the door.
 
They're eating without talking much. When Val's finished she takes a sip and leans back, beer bottle in her hand. “Hmm...”
Emmerick looks at her questioningly after her hum.
“You were with the Animals?” Val eyes him.
He frowns a little. “Why do ya ask?”
She shrugs and takes a sip. “Just curious.”
“You heard rumors?” He gives her a suspicious look.
“Nah...” Val shakes her head. “Just merc intuition.” She grins, puts the bottle away and moves closer to him.
 
“I've seen quite a few Animals now...” She studies his face. “With chrome in the same style.”
Emmerick nods. “Yeah, you're right.” His voice is calm again. "But that's been a while... I'm not on Juice or other stuff anymore."
"Good for ya." Val nods. “So, question. The chrome...” Val raises one hand to gently touch the cyberware at his jaw. “Is it 'cause nose and jaw are broken to many times, to fix it?” She lowers her hand, “... or is it precaution?”
“Depends...” He looks in her eyes. “My nose was broken several times.” He shrugs. “But, yeah, it's more kinda precaution.”
“I got my nose broken few weeks after I got back from Atlanta.” Val grimaces at the memory.
 
Emmerick puts his empty bottle away and Val stands up from the couch to sit down on his lap astride. His hands are on her naked thighs immediately. “Mhmm.” He hums with satisfaction. He studies her face. “But it's healed well...” He leans in. “Beautiful nose, like the rest of you.” His voice is low and husky, and Val closes the space between them to kiss him. Sweet and tender.
 
She pulls back. “So, what else do ya got?”
He looks at her questioningly.
“Chrome.” She smirks and eyes him.
“What about your merc intuition?” He grins a little. “Try an' guess.”
“Hmm...” Val studies him. “I've seen a lot chrome collarbones and stuff, but obviously that's not a thing.” She leans down to kiss his neck and the edge of his collarbones.
He lets out a little moan.
Val pulls back, sits straight again. “Same goes for hands.” She looks down at his big hand on her thighs, “...'ganic.”
He strokes up and down her legs and she feels warmth spreading out through her body.
 
“Arms an' elbows.” She looks at him, never seen him without a jacket. “Makes sense... punchin' and...”
“Right elbow.” He interrupts her and leans forward to pull off his jacket. She studies him closely, how his muscles tighten while he moves. Then he leans back at the couch again, in his tank top. Val takes one deep breath.
 
Yes, he's big and beefy. But not as extreme as she had seen other Animals. He has some older, smaller scars and also stretch marks. But nothing like torn skin or other skin change as an effect of Juice and none intentionally created scars, like tiger stripes and what else the Animals do. Val's gaze trails over him.
He smirks. “Like what ya see?”
 
As an answer she puts her hands on his shoulders, strokes down his biceps and up again to his chest along his neckline. While doing so, she's leaning forward, kissing him, slowly but deep. He moans in her mouth and his hands are on her thighs again.
 
“What about you?” He eyes her after they break the kiss. “Mantis Blades, of course.” He takes her right hand is his and turns it with the palm upwards. “And coprocessor. But not much chrome to see on you.”
“New tendons in heels and ankles.” She presses her legs a bit closer against him and he looks down.
“Well made, your legs look 'ganic.” Then he looks into her eyes. “So you can jump extra high?”
Val nods. “It's fun.” She smirks and Emmerick chuckles. A deep sound that tingles in her belly. And way deeper.
 
“Both knees.” Emmerick's talking about his own, but he strokes Vals knees, right and left from his body on the couch while speaking. “Too much weight, to many squats.”
She nods. “People getting' new knees since 100 years or what...”
She thinks for a moment. “My immune system's chipped. I'm resistant to almost any poison.”
“Handy.” His voice is husky and his hands move up her legs to grab her butt firmly.
Val lets out a low moan, takes a deep breath. “Optics, of course.”
Emmerick nods while he kneads her butt. “Of course.”
“But they resemble my natural eye color pretty well. Maybe a bit deeper green.” Her breathing is heavier now, her chest goes up and down.
 
"I've got a Second Heart.” He looks into her eyes, hungry.
She puts her hands on his hard chest, feels his muscles under his tank top. “My body couldn't handle that. To small, to weak.”
“Oh, you're not weak.” He holds her butt tight.
“You...” She lets out a small moan, and he growls in satisfaction. “You know what I mean.” She looks him in the eyes. Then she grabs his top and pulls it up. He raises his arms and helps to pull it off.
She eyes him, takes in every detail. She breathes heavily through her slightly opened mouth.
“Damn...” Almost a growl and he puts his hands back at her butt. “Just you lookin' at me like that is enough to make me hard.” His voice is low and husky.
 
Val giggles softly. “So no Second Heart, just a Blood Pump and some vessels.” She looks deep into his eyes and takes off her top slowly.
Emmerick's breath goes heavy while he watches her closely and his hands holding her ass tighter.
She drops her top on the floor and leans forward to kiss him deep, roughly.
 
One of his hands is on her naked breast and while she leans closer, she can feel him hard against her, right where she wants him, needs him. Val rolls her hips against him and he moans loud against her mouth.
Then Emmerick grabs her and stands up. She wraps her legs around him intuitively while he holds her and walks over to her bed.
 
 
They are lying next to each other, naked, sweaty, still breathless. Emmerick lies sideways, leaning on his chrome elbow while two fingers of his other hand tenderly stroking up and down her naked body, giving her goosebumps.
“Mhmm.” Val lies on her back, humming satisfied.
 
“So, how does this work?” he asks.
“What?” Val looks at him, eyebrows slightly raised.
“Being not your input.” Emmerick still strokes her.
She giggles. “Hmm...” Val looks up at the ceiling and thinks about it.
“I've got a few friends and mates, we hang out, spend time together, do normal friend stuff, but...”
“...with benefits.” he adds.
She nods. “You could call it like that.”
 
Emmerick's fingers stroke up her belly and between her naked breasts. “I might need to remind myself that you're not mine sometimes... that I don't punch other men in the face for kissing you.”
“Please don't hit non-men either.” Val's voice is calm.
“Right...” He nods. “You're not straight.”
“I don't care for sex or gender...”
Silence. He still caresses her, his fingers draw along the lines of the ink on her chest.
 
“Not sure if I can do 'normal friend stuff' with you... I'm getting all hot every time I see ya.” Emmerick's voice is a bit husky again.
Val chuckles and rolls over on her side to look at him. His fingers are on her side, sliding down her waist and hip.
“We can let each other know... when we have time...” She eyes him, taking in the sight of him, naked. “And when we need each other.” She smirks at him.
 
“I think I wanna let ya know that I need you.” He leans above her. "Again." His hand, which had caressed her gently before, grabs her ass tightly. "Now." And Emmerick kisses her.
Val giggles against his mouth and wraps her arm around his neck before she kisses him back.

“So, how does this work?”
  “What?”
  “Being not your input.”
