Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tali watched him like a hawk...she thought...The way he moves...is so hot.... she shook her head. She must be delusional. He couldn't be interested in her. Guys liked nice clean girls with their nails done and make-up... she looked at her nails and frowned. She never was one to do her nails. She used her hands too much for that. Didn't do the make-up thing either...she usually sweated too much for that. She looked back up when he walked closer and went into the garage.
Tali watched as he pulled out MREs and water...she licked her full lips...looked at him then back at the supplies. She knew better then to just help herself without being asked. The last guys that pretended to help her used food and water too. They tempted her then grabbed her....she couldn't think about the rest. She frowned again and watched him....muscles rippling.... ...shaking her head again. She looked down, took a deep breath and looked at him eye to eye. "Don't worry, I won't ask, if you don't."

Tali smiled when Jake said she could have some. She tried to not look to eager. She walked to the supplies with a sexy gait and nodded when he said he was going to wash up. She filled up her bottle of water from his and drank deeply. Water running down her chin and down the front of her shirt. She didn't care she was sooo thirsty. Lowering her bottle she watched him wash himself, she licked the water off of her full lips. When she saw him looking at her she smirked and turned around to the MREs. She was far beyond being picky so she grabbed one and turned around to lean on the table and watch him...she couldn't help it. It had been a long time since she had seen a man that sexy.
She looked over at Kirsten and waved her over, "Come on, you gotta eat."

She glanced back at him while she opened the MRE... she looked in and turned around to set the things inside on the table. One of the packages fell off the table. She bent over slowly to pick it up.....

Tali looked up as Jake came out of the bathroom. She watched him and picked up her water bottle. Drank deeply again without taking her eyes off of him. She set it done and started opening the little package that was inside the MRE when he said he would fix REAL food...Tali smiled. "Ok" she walked over to follow him into the kitchen. Laughing when he said, you get more if you know people. She went closer to him when he put the steaks on the grill. She hadn't realized how close she was too him....she was smelling the delicious scent of the steaks. She turned to ask him a question and realized she was only a few inches away from him. "Um....I..uh..." What was I going to ask she thought. She blushed, she hadn't been this close to a man she wanted in many years. There certainly had been unwanted men, men who took advantage of her....but ......Oh...goodness... she was frozen.

When he took her hand and kissed her she gave a little moan....Oh, that's better then steak she thought. She smiled when he said he's been wanting to do that, and pushed her hair to the side. She leaned in when he kissed her again. Pressing up against him, she put one hand on his chest, while he held the other. She couldn't think, when he pulled back again, she whimpered a little. "Well, I'm glad you did..." she looked at him with an unwavering gaze. "Did I say thank you for saving us?"

She smiled and blushed, "Oh, well thank you." Watching him as he pushed aside her hair, she listened intently to him. She kissed him back when he kissed her again. She looked up at him when he asked her to go out with him...she blinked. Was she dreaming....she had just run for her life from some infected and now this gorgeous man wanted her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled up at him, "It would be my pleasure." She blushed when he said she could thank him some other time. Standing on her tippy toes she leaned up and kissed him again gently.

She looked down when he said she needed a dry shirt and smiled a little. She smiled when she said he liked that about her, "I don't have anymore clothes. Someone stole what I had." She might as well tell him now, it was better to do it now and him push her away then later when she had fallen completely for him, without looking him in the eyes, she said, "Some men tricked me and took everything I had. Everything..." she looked at him then and defiance flashed in her eyes, "They didn't get anything without a fight. Two of them will carry a scar. And I killed one." she lifted her chin, "I was out numbered 4 to one. They took what they wanted and left me for the infected in the area. My plasma gun was damaged in the fight. It was two weeks ago." She looked away, "I'm sorry I didn't tell you before. If you've changed your mind about me I understand."

Tali smiled when Jake kissed her again after she had told him her story. Listening intently, she watched his smile fade as he told her about his prison time. Unspilled tears in her eyes when he finished, she put her hands around his neck and pulled him down to her full lips. She kissed him like it may be the last kiss she would ever get.....her kiss was filled with the emotions that she felt at that moment.....it felt like she couldn't get enough of him.

She wrapped her legs around his waist when he picked her up, while kissing him. When he pulled back the second time she whimpered a little, "you're right." She smiled at him and unwrapped her legs to slide down. Her stomach growled and she blushed.
