@soloexe sent: [ NECK ]

。·*·ﾟ*·ﾟ🩸                 Pleather material from a laced top was carelessly thrown on the floor of the hallway. Her freshly manicured fingernails dug into the material of his shirt and the back of his neck to also pull him closer to her. She had never spent this much time with someone who was supposed to be a onetime fling. It’d been almost two months since they’d met now and she had really only been inviting him out with her or would go to clubs with him. There seemed to be something so magnetic about him to her. And so here she was, against his hallway wall once again, shirtless and kissing him. At times she thought it was stupid, not worth the time and then he would start texting her or say one thing and it faded. Maybe that was love, but she knew that was not an option. Inevitably, if V fell in love with Jáska, she knew that would mean he would die or leave her. Just like everyone she had ever loved before, so this would have to do. She wasn’t sure if it was a friends with benefits situation, or just casually hooking up but it felt like more than that at times.

Caution and thoughts thrown aside in an instant, though. A small pull back from her and for a split second she truly just looked at him, that moment a gentle flutter in her chest before throwing it out and turning her head. She pressed her lips against his jaw, then his neck. After she’d sufficiently drowned herself in the thoughts of the complexities of their relationship and the fact in a short span of two months, she may have fallen in love with this man a small amount of wanting to prove that rushed over her. Part of her hated that as the urge persisted, her lips pressing hard against the side of his neck. Skin taken between her lips as she buried her nails behind his neck in a bit more, her other hand trailing down his back before sliding under his shirt. After a moment, she pulled her head away, only to be thrown off as suddenly as his hand pressed against her neck. Her head lightly hitting the wall behind her, her lips curled into a small smile as she looked up at him. Her fingers loosened and fell down to her side as her eyebrows rose. The smallest feeling of enjoyment in her as she looked at him, hands off, completely for just a second, allowing a moment to not be in control of the situation. But, V could never completely keep it that way. She always had to have some feeling of having the last word.

V lifted one hand she dropped and slowly ran it up his chest and around his neck before quickly wrapping her fingers in his hair and pulling on it carefully.  ❝ Вы должны делать больше, если хотите быть главным. ❞ She smile she wore had faded into a challenging smirk. Her words having only the slightest strain as she spoke. She wanted this to be a bit more of a fight, a build up. If he really wanted her to stick around that was. Or, if he couldn’t keep up tonight would be the last night, it should either way she could feel herself getting attached and would hate to see the curse of her hurt him. But, for once in the last 10 or 13 years she wanted to be selfish. Just for him, and how wonderful times like this felt. And that was sex aside, he helped her understand more of her roots, of what she wanted in the time they laid in bed after. It was nice, she had never met someone in Night City like that before him. She didn’t want to meet anyone else like him either. Only him. Even if she knew ultimately the second he put his hand around her neck, she was going to lose the fight she had just set up for dominance. She wanted to see how he would play into it. If this was going to be a game about him, or her, or both of them. Her fingers still laced with his hair pulling back on it slightly as she looked at him a small strained laugh before she spoke. ❝ But, I think this hall wall has suffered because of us too much. ❞

。·*·ﾟ*·ﾟ🩸                 Blank features, she would not show her emotions or annoyance of someone questioning her or who she was. Thank god Jackie wasn’t here, big man would throw an absolute fit. Venice herself was dramatic but in a different way.  ❝ Someone with eddies asking favor. If you are free. If not, just another street kid of Heywood. ❞  She is careful in how she speaks, concentrating on making sure it is even in tone. She doesn’t want to tip scales or become to giddy, especially with a netrunner. She could end a life quickly but netrunners could destroy them and watch the carnage. She did not want to be on the receiving end of that. But she knew what she was about to ask was a lot and either way she could be.  ❝ I need help. Don’t really trust a fixer or friend working with him. Looking for someone to get files on some chip Arasaka had made. Don’t wanna be goin into a set up. ❞

。·*·ﾟ*·ﾟ🩸                 Brows rose as the other spoke, she was unorthodox in her approaches to things yes. But, for the most part that is what made V so special, it was what made her as well known as she was.  ❝ You called me no? You ask for my services this is what I offer. If not enough you can contact fixer but they charge higher rate, or another solo they also go at higher rate. ❞ It might be true, probably not though. She never paid attention to the others rates, let alone fixers she just did her job and tried to keep the streets safe. She could walk out if she wanted, this woman as a high power corpo that was enough of a reason to leave. But, there was a gut feeling telling her to stay, to hear this woman out for whatever reason.  ❝ If you don’t like what do you want done? If it is too clean they can trace things back to corpo not back to solos. Spice it up, they brush it off as more bad street action. Especially in JigJig. ❞

。·*·ﾟ*·ﾟ🩸                 Arms above her head, hips swaying to the music and clothing that probably showed too much for the occasion. Single’s on Valentine’s day flocking to the clubs in hopes of finding some scum desperate enough to go home with them. V was not and would never be that girl. But, that did not stop every goddamn person in the club from trying to feel her up and talk to her while she danced or got a drink, one even bold enough to bring her a drink. It was rare she was thankful for people stepping in and helping but when proposed, the idea of having a gent name Joel faking being her boyfriend for the night to help her get some slack she agreed. All she wanted for the night was to have fun and know she wasn’t going to be harassed too much.

After a decent amount of time together at the bar catching one another up on the basics about the other she made a move for the dance floor. Not being bothered by the way her movements attracted looks with each shake of her shoulders or the sway of her hips. Her arms out to the side feeling an approach from behind her, a simple throw of her head to the side with the beat of the music as she assured herself it was simply her partner for the night. After a confirmation and feeling hands around her waist she tilted her head to the side, long tresses of thick hair falling and making way for a press of his lips to her neck. A soft hum as her frame swayed to the music. Her hands rested on his. After a moment, two before her head turned as she looked to him ❝ At this rate, I think everyone might leave the dance floor. ❞

。·*·ﾟ*·ﾟ🩸                 Her head was tilted back and out of the bathtub. Large white bubbles filled the tub completely but, they were surprisingly not overbearing her. A gentle hum of a song as she closed her eyes, it was really her first day back with him explaining everything that had happened to her, to Jackie and now Johnny in her head. It was nice for once for things to end with something they both enjoyed. But there was a moment, a buzz, and Johnny was in front of her.  ❝ You decided this was better than saving our ass from dying? ❞  V didn’t even bother to open her eyes as Johnny spoke to her. She simply lifted a leg and set it outside of the tub delicately, followed by the other one. She didn’t mind him, even if he had tried to kill her and nearly ruined things with Jakša. He had a hard life, bad things happened to him and even if he brought it on himself, she felt a need to help him. But she was in pain. She was hurting right now and instead of jumping head first into things again without thinking, she wanted one day for herself.  ❝ I am surprised the bubbles aren’t bloody. I bet the water underneath is. Johnny really likes to throw punches, more than me, yeah? ❞  Her head moved softly as she felt Jak’s fingers pulling and raking through it to make whatever beautiful braid he was going to. That was one of the few characteristics she knew she had of her mother’s. It was one she treasured, the thickness and texture that was her hair. It had always been the one thing she took extra care of or putting up even before a job. It was one of the few connections she actually had left to her parents, so it was nice to genuinely share it with Jakša and allow him to do something she let no one do.  ❝ We should go out after this, I won’t be around much the next couple of weeks. Gotta take care of a few things for him. But I want to do nice things tonight together. Re-live old days of first dates would be nice ❞

[relicstole]

。·*·ﾟ*·ﾟ🩸                 Door swung open and closed behind her. Everything in her arms dropped on the floor by the door as per a usual ritual she would have to pick up in 10 minutes after greeting Jak but she didn’t care. The first stop as usual the kitchen as she stripped of the long accent jacket she wore and tossed it on the counter, pouring a glass of wine before she pulled things out to make dinner.  ❝ Where are we going tomorrow? You are taking me on date yeah? ❞ A call out loud as she uncapped a water on the counter and poured it into a pan. She turned on the stove before peeling off her pants and walked into the bedroom throwing it onto the bed before shuffling through Jak’s clothes and grabbed one of his shirts. She threw off her own before she pulled it over her head. A raise of her brow before her head tilted to the side. Nosy as ever she began to quietly shift through things in a poor attempt to find any sort of gift for the upcoming holiday before letting out a bored sigh as she returned to the kitchen. She hoisted herself up on the counter going through messages from Jackie and Wakako on her holo as she waited for a moment.  ❝ Jackie is taking Misty out to some thing special that is like a Valentino’s ritual like thing. Why do we not ever have that for your gang thing? Is this going to just be bar again because I love you but I am so tired of just going to the clubs. And also I may or may not have some problems next one we go to. Jackie and I-- we have done not so good with keeping friends.  ❞ 

She hesitated a moment before she checked the water. Slowly as it started to bubble she puckered her lips and picked dried blood from under her nails. A small smirk as she looked to her bag across the room and hummed quietly to herself for a moment.  ❝ I have gift for you, so if you got me nothing on day that the people her celebrate for love even though it is about murder you don’t get to see it. ❞

。·*·ﾟ*·ﾟ🩸                 Not what she expected to be greeted with. But, time was starting to run short, every second. She hadn’t expected Judy to need her help again but after finishing some more work for Regina, she came over as fast as she could. Johnny at the helm asking if he could full take over with very strong answer’s of no from V. So instead, he stood behind the other woman and sat on her couch, as if he owned the place. In a way he did, he owned any space V was in because she was the only one who could really see him, feel him. But, right now her attention needed to be on Judy.  ❝ Been a day or so. Clock’s ticking. Only those who run with time can keep up. ❞ Shoulders shrugged as V let out a small sigh and then tucked back some of her hair. To be honest, the fact Judy could notice was alarming but, nothing a stop at the vending machine wouldn’t fix. Energy drinks were godsends for her current situation and that was important to her. ❝ Why’d you call? I thought we had everything squared with clouds and stuff. ❞

。·*·ﾟ*·ﾟ🩸                 Shotgun lifted and smashed right into the skull of a 6th Street asshole before it is spun and the trigger is pulled. A step to the left behind a wall as a bullet whizzed past V’s head. A peek around the corner before ripping a knife from her thigh holster. Another shot missed as she could pinpoint exactly where the shooter was. A quick pull back of her hand before flinging the knife and hearing a loud thud of a body. Shouting carried around the small warehouse as more of the group arrived. Flow of combat suddenly interrupted as her holo lit up in her sight. A quirk of her brow as the message flashed open while she reached for her revolver on her hip. Gaze met with a slight shock, breath caught in throat as an image took over a small corner of her sight. Now that was just rude. Her grip loosened on her gun as it slowly fell from her hand. Heat falling to features. The instant urge to leave her job to go home and join Jakša in the shower took over. Of course, that was until the heat in her body focused on her temple and spilled against her skin in the form of blood. Mind brought back to reality rather than the lustful image in her gaze, she took a second to slide across the small building she was hiding in. A quick hack dropping a metal covering over the front opening of it, providing momentary protection before taking a breath. 

↪️ SENT ↪️ {SMS: Сахарок}: I am working a job сука. You almost killed me and I am not even jumping off building ↪️ SENT ↪️ {SMS: Сахарок}: Now I want to just leave and get railed. ↪️ SENT ↪️ {SMS: Сахарок}: I’m leaving. This is more than the job was supposed to be. Can you wait five?

It doesn’t take much more than that for the back door to be kicked open and a swift leap over a wire fence and jog down the road to her car. As she took a second to sit in it her gaze drifted to a store on her right. A smug expression. Oh how the star aligned. If he was going to tease her like that she was going to come back full force. A step out of the car entering the shop and quickly pulling something from the rack tossing over the eddies before changing in the car and pulling her long jacket over her frame. Only a few minutes before her car stopped in front of his apartment building. Not wasting time she jogged up the steps instead of taking the elevator before she banged her hand on the door. ❝ если ты не откроешь эту чертову дверь, я вышибу ее ❞

。·*·ﾟ*·ﾟ🩸                 Rage, it grows and it festers as they speak of Arasaka. Johnny in her ear. He whispers and then screams. Beer bottle in her hand nearly shattering from how tight her grip is. It was supposed to be a nice night, one of the few she probably has left to enjoy in the company of a friend and instead she has become him. She’s turning into him because of the deep desperation to help, to not allow people to live as she had, just like how she treats her work. But he, Johnny, can actually consume her fully make her into someone else.  It takes a lot for her to hold him back, suddenly as the words fall past the others lips before she took a deep breath. ❝ He wants me to throw a knife at them both. Right through the throat, because of what Arasaka did to me, to him. ❞ She hesitates before she nodded and grabbed her bag as she narrowed her eyes at the couple. ❝ They are corpo but they grew up here, they have a heart here and have been trying too help us. I want to leave, I can’t hurt people I have protected before. I am glad someone can still read me and see when Johnny takes over.  ❞
