Welcome to Gaia! ::

Jen held the kiss for a few moments, heart thudding wildly in her chest. She felt PERV's hand on her cheek, and the gesture didn't cause goosebumps at all. Jen pulled back, pulling in a breath of air. What she didn't get... was why PERV hasn't taken over yet. Pushed her, or kissed her like she did earlier. Jen's eyes opened slightly, and she looked at PERV from behind her lashes...

"Uhm..." Jen breathed in shakily, for some reason she couldn't draw air into her lungs, "Is something wrong?"

For some reason she felt anxious, and she had no idea why. With another shaky breath she pulled back a little, wanting to see PERV's face so she could understand why PERV wasn't reacting the way she had earlier. Was Jen doing something wrong???

"O-oh..." Jen's voice trembled when PERV kissed her cheek. This wasn't what she had expected at all. She was expecting PERV to attack her, not be so... gentle. It confused Jen, made it hard for her to think. She didn't know what to do. Her hands hovered in the air awkwardly. She didn't know what to do.

But... the kiss... she leaned into PERV when PERV kissed her. The tension seeped out of her, Jen became putty. Her hands slowly fell to her sides limply. She felt PERV's body next to hers, Jen wondered if PERV could feel the thump of her heart through her rib cage. Unconsciously, Jen wasn't aware that she was leaning into PERV, pushing her back slightly towards the bed.

It wasn't until Jen found herself leaning over PERV, pushing her into the bed, that she realized it. Surprised at herself she gasped and pulled back from PERV a bit. "Ah!" Her eyes went wide, "Oh... Sorry... I..."

She was breathless and her voice came out in soft gasps, her gaze dropped to look at the two of them laying across the bed, her face turned pink. When did she do this?

Jen's breathing slowed down, now that she was able to catch her breath. Her heart was still thumping a crazy rhythm, but now that she was getting used to the feeling... it wasn't bad. Not... really. Jen's hands rested on either side of PERV's body, propping her up. She was no less nervous, still awkward and wondering if she was doing something wrong...

"I know," Jen breathed softly, closing her eyes, her heart leaping to her throat when PERV kissed her forehead, "I knew you were never going to hurt me..." In spite of all the things that had happened, Jen trusted PERV completely, the guardian couldn't help it.

Jen lifted her head, and shifted her weight slightly, so that she wasn't pressing into PERV as much. She felt awkward and nervous, unsure of what she was doing, but at the same time... Jen wanted more. Jen raised a hand and pushed PERV's hair away from her face and asked, "I... I'm not sure what to do next... are you... getting any energy?"

Jen's face turned red again as she felt awkward for asking. Hooo, boy. Her head was spinning, "W-what do I do?"

An obvious shiver jolted up and down the length of Jen's spine, following in the wake of PERV's fingers. Her breath halted for a moment, before she forced herself to breath. The hand that had brushed aside PERV's hair, twitched slightly. "Ah... o-ok..."

Slowly, haltingly, Jen slanted her head to the side, and leaned down to kiss PERV again. One arm propping her body up, the other sliding down from PERV's cheek, to her throat, to rest at her shoulder. Jen tried to follow her instincts, like PERV suggested. Jen let her thoughts bleed away, like she did whenever she was younger, and wanted to be a part of the forest. She used to just let her body run and move through the woods, not worrying about thought.

Slowly Jen's senses opened up, becoming sharper. Her hand that was supporting her weight gripped at the bed covers tightly. Unbidden, Jen pressed her body a little harder against PERV's, the woodsy scent that normally followed the guardian grew stronger and sharper. She lost track of her actions as she succumbed to her instincts.

Jen groaned, the first sexual sound she made, when she felt PERV's tongue lick her lip. Jen's body moved with out thought, with out reason. She only wanted the feelings to grow. Her inhibitions lost as she succumbed to her more instinctual, more animal side.

Jen's hand grasped the back of PERV's neck and pulled her in impossibly closer, Jen's own tongue slipping into PERV's mouth. Taking control. Her other arm looping around PERV's waist to pull her as close as possible. The only thing the guardian knew was that she wanted more. Dimly, Jen's mind was aware that this wasn't her. That this was some other part of herself that she only experienced when she connected to the forest. Some deeper untapped part.

Suddenly, Jen pulled back from PERV. Jerking away so she could get a breath of air. Jen's eyes opened, the chocolate brown now turned into a bright green. Her gaze was different, slightly more foreign. Like the gaze of wild cat. Jen leaned in close again, but she instead turned her head, and ghosted her nose along side PERV's jaw. She caught PERV's scent, and nibbled along the side of throat, wanting a taste.

Somewhere deep in Jen, her more rational side was panicking, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" she asked herself. But the part of her in control shrugged her off indifferently and slid her hand down PERV's side feeling her up.

Jen's more wild nature consumed her, wanting only to increase this feeling. This feeling of being alive. Her body moved on it's own, responding to PERVs in perfect unison. She felt the same surges of energy that PERV did. She liked it.

Just like as she enjoyed the taste of PERV's skin. Her tongue ghosted along the side of PERV's neck, down to her collar bone. Jen soon lifted her head, gasping, as she looked at PERV with strange green eyes. She shut them tightly for a moment, and shook her head ad if she were dazed, when she opened them again, they were now a strange hazel. Neither green, nor brown. Slowly in a deep voice, Jen asked, "Hows that?"

Jen was currently fighting with herself. One part not wanting to stop, wanting to fan the flames higher, and let the pleasure go. But the other part of her, the more rational one knew that she would need to find a way of stopping herself, or she would regret it later. And so the two pieces went at war. Jen only hoped that PERV had been able to get enough energy.

Jen's eyes searched PERV's for a moment, she smiled gently and leaned down to kiss PERV one last time. Then she pulled away, sitting up on the edge of the bed. She shook her head, dimly, trying to shake away the last fogs of that other side of herself.

Jen pressed the palms of her hands into her eyes tiredly. She gave her head one last shake and lifted her gaze. Her eyes now faded back to brown, neither green nor hazel. Her face was red again, and there was subtle shift in her body language. She glanced back over her shoulder at PERV and gave her a reassuring smile, so that the girl didn't think Jen was upset or anything. Even if she was freaking out.

It wasn't PERV that frightened her. Not by a long shot. The experience hadn't been at all unpleasant. It was herself. She'd never, ever, been like that before. Ok, if she was honest with herself she had felt something similar when she was a child, tapping into the energy of her father's forest. Becoming one with the spirit of it, and then running through the trees and woods. Becoming totally free. But this had been different, much more intense. So... what just happened? What was the relation between the two feelings?

Oh!

Jen suddenly hopped to her feet. Clapping her hands to her mouth suddenly. There was no way... That didn't make sense. She looked back at PERV again, eyes wide, then she stuttered, "I-I-I I gotta make a phone c-c-call."

Jen stumbled back slightly, raising her hand in good bye, before heading out towards the front door. She shut it behind her, but then a moment later opened it and poked her head back in, "I'll b-be right back. Promise."

Jen then shut the door and jogged down the way towards the elevators. There was a phone down in the lobby, in a quiet corner. She could use that. No one would bother her, and she could talk in private. Jen tapped her foot anxiously while waiting for the elevator to arrive, and then tapped her foot the whole way down. She resisted the urge to run to the phone. Instead she walked to it, like a normal person.

She noticed a little message taped to the phone, and dialed "9" before putting in her father's phone number. It was long distance, but she was sure that was expected. This was a hotel full of tourists from across the country, she was sure there were more long distance calls than local ones made. Awkwardly she waited for the phone to ring before her father's voice answered, "Hello?"

"Da?" Jen asked quickly.

"Jenny! You called sooner than expected! How's Hawaii?" Connor Benton asked with a cheery lilt to his voice.

"It's fine, Da, but that's not why I called," Jen explained quickly, tapping her fingers on the table. "I need your help..."

"Whats the matter?" Connor asked, his voice turning concerned.

"It's about..." Jen sighed running a hand through her hair, "Da, when a guardian awakens, how can you tell?"

"You found your forest?" Connors voice turned excited.

"Nnnnot exactly..." Jen sighed slumping slightly.

"What do you mean?"

"Thats why I called, to confirm, Da," she explained.

"Well, let's see," Connor said thoughtfully, "Your powers awaken, sweetie. Your senses. The energy pathways open to you. You feel incredibly alive. Most importantly, as a guardian, you know that this is the one place in the world you need to protect."

"Or person..." Jen said softly.

"Person?" Connor asked confused, before realization dawned on him. "Jenny... you awakened to a person?"

Jen's face turned red, glad her father couldn't see her, "I don't know, that's why I called. I didn't even know I could awaken to anything other than the earth..." To be honest, Jen had never thought she would awaken at all.

"Well, it's unusual, but not unheard of. Earth guardians run in the family, but we've had our share of 'guardian angels'. I just never liked that term, because it was tacky. But... it's not unheard of Jenny," Connor explained gently, sensing his daughter's turmoil. "Who did you awaken to?"

"Ah!" Jen bowed her head and stuttered, "Well, I'm not positive yet, Da. I just wanted to be sure. I mean, it was kinda like when I tapped into your forest when I was younger..."

"You could do that before you matured because you were my child," Connor explained, " But when you matured, you needed to find your own forest... or person. Jenny, if the feelings were similar..."

"I don't know yet, Da. I'm not sure. I'm going to make sure before I decide any thing, ok?" Jen whispered gently, "Bye, Da..."

"Alright, Jenny... Just be careful, it's a lot harder to be the guardian of a person. A lot more difficulties await you... but you can't chose whom you awaken to. Bye Jenny."

Jen hung up on her father, and walked away, dazedly back to the elevators and stood there numbly as she made her way back to her room. She moved to open the door. But forgot her key. So she wrapped on the surface of the wood with knock instead. Carefully trying to arrange her face into a smile, rather than the awkwardness she felt.

Jen slipped into the room, her mind still a whir of activity, still trying to piece together the puzzles of what the hell was happening. Due to this, she didn't notice the change that had come over the succubus. Jen was oblivious, as always, to the girls thoughts. To her fears of abandonment. It wasn't until PERV spoke that Jen noticed anything wrong.

Her brow crinkled slightly in confusion and she stepped over to sit down on the side of PERV's bed. She looked down at her in confusion, and after a moment she spoke up, "I don't understand, PERV. Where am I going?" Jen tilted her head slightly, there was no guile in her eyes, no sign of a cruel joke. Merely a simple clueless stare. The thought of being afraid of PERV and wanting to run away from her was so far removed from Jen's mind that she didn't even acknowledge it as one of PERV's worries. She was totally oblivious.

Jen look away, off to the side. She rubbed the back of her neck with a sigh, her face turning slightly pink. She glanced up again and said, "Hey... you know. I'm kinda hungry... I haven't eaten since I got off the plane. Uhmmm..." Jen shifted nervously in her seat and asked, "You wanna get something to eat somewhere?"

But then a thought crossed her head. She had just 'fed' PERV already, Jen's face turned red. "Do you eat regular food? Or" Then she looked away and hid her face in her hand, wondering if the question had been offensive. WHAT SHOULD SHE SAY!?!
