What? No! I mean, every guy is getting the injections but, um, I mean, I guess you're the special one in that you're the only not guy getting it? the blonde managed right before the fall. There likely would've been more stammering and protesting or other explanations, but she was currently on top of the sniper. Her heart hammered at about a thousand beats a minute, and Riley almost swore it fluttered. She'd read about scenarios like this, and how often they, like, ended up with first kisses or awkward declarations of affection or something. It didn't help that Kai looked as if she were thinking exactly the same thing. She has the prettiest eyes, all amber colored and clear, kinda like a cat. I wonder if anyone ever tells her that... The hands made her almost flinch. Um, Kai? she asked, eyes flicking toward the hands. Some of Riley's hair had fallen down, forming a curtain around them, which she could just see, the whole thing allowing them privacy for the next few moments. She looked down, seeing those piercing eyes hammering into hers again. Riley's heart fluttered again, almost skipping a beat, and someone apparently released some butterflies into her stomach. There was just something in that expression, something affectionate, and Riley for a moment wondered why she'd been quite so adamant about saving Kai back there. Because we're friends... squadmates, that's--- Lips touched hers. Riley let out a little cry of surprise, eyes widening for a moment. But at the same time, she felt her mouth opening, just a bit, as if she instinctively wanted to let Kai inside. Her own tongue was tentative, only moving when Kai prodded. The blonde's thoughts just halted, the hammering of her blood in her ears all she heard. She felt everything swelling, the whole thing just this orchestrated, crystallizing, beautiful moment, exactly like kisses were supposed to be. The thought made Riley let out this soft, gentle sigh, her body relaxing, almost melting into Kai's. Then it stopped, Riley eyes remaining closed, her mouth hanging open a beat longer than Kai's. She blinked, looked down at the sniper. And, realizing what happened, Riley turned an almost violent shade of red. Right. Just, ah, a thanks. Got it. I kiss people who--who save my life all the time. no big deal, she said, fluttering a hand. That had definitely not felt like a big deal. But it was probably just.... just leftover reaction bits. Yeah, that was it. Riley's body was remembering the whole---arousal thing from earlier today, and, like, it had reacted. And---yeah, that made total sense. Because butterflies, warm fuzzy feelings, and thoughts about her eyes are all physical, instinctive reactions. God Riley, you are not that stupid! You clearly have a slight crush on Kai---maybe because she's pretending to be a guy? An awesome guy. With killer eyes. Who puts other people first and is all serious when she needs to be and can handle herself and has, like, this absolutely built body. Like, omigod, she makes Claude look like a total wimp, but, like, not with the whole hulking thing. Svelte, she's svelte. Sure!' chirped Riley, about two octaves higher than she needed to be. Right. Serum. We, ah, need to inject you. Because---because... then, anything we do counts as the serum, and not us . So I can totally see if, like, I might be curious or if it's Kai or--- Because we don't want to freeze! Riley popped up, moving almost too quick, and darted back toward the suitcase. Her hands were almost trembling as she unfastened it. Riley paused, licking her lips. Remember! You need to take off your pants! she chirped, looking over to Kai again. For the injection! So things--- don't get in the way----
