A Hard Day's Work (Possibly NSFW)
It had been over two months since Alisa had come to live with the Champions, and she had changed during that time. She had grown a bit more confident in herself, her stuttering was close to being gone forever, she had gained weight and now looked a bit healthier, and she even had a steady job with good income. Alisa also took Nick's advice and had been attending therapy sessions in the quarter once a week, o help her deal with her past life on the streets of New Orleans, and various other traumas. Alisa felt like a whole new person, almost as though she were reborn and given a better life.

But despite all of these good things, there were still things that urked her. Argo saw her as some best friend, no where near a woman. Ennie refused to see her after his powers went haywire, and she had not spoken to him since. But her biggest urk was that she was still not an official member of the "Champions". She just felt like some live in mechanic at times, but there was no room for complaint. Despite these issues, her life was a 110% better than what it had been.

Dressed in a white tank top which was over a black bra, a pair of army green cargo pants with a black leather belt holding them up, and a pair of black army boots, Alisa was hard at work repairing a neglected Motorcycle engine. She could not believe how people would treat their property like shit. Then again, she came from nothing so when she got anything, she cherished and took care of it. Oh how she wished some of these bike owners could walk a mile in her shoes.

Brushing some of her long auburn hair out of her eyes, she attached a part to her wrench that would allow her to remove stripped bolts. Someone obviously tried to do a home-made repair on this bike, and just did more damage. Part of her wanted to call up the owner and yell at him to buy a new engine. The other part of her knew that with her mutant abilities, she could easily fix the engine... which would make a pretty penny for her, Nick, and the shop.

Turning to her little AM/FM radio she found, Alisa turned it to a rock station she had come to love, blasting "Unwritten Law's" song "Save Me" into the shop as she went back to work on the engine.

At the nudge, once he figures out what she's up to, he takes off after her. Sure, he drinks and smokes, but he lives an active life, and isn't exactly a chain smoker, two or three a day get him by fine. He's not far behind by the time she turns, grinning and picking up speed into a sprint to try and catch her.

Her laugh was a real beautiful thing. When Alisa first came to the Champions, she was meek, stuttered, and kept to herself. Now, she seemed like a perfectly normal woman... well, if you consider a woman who can touch any machine and know it's in's and out's normal. She would purposely slow down at times, then run a bit faster to tease Nick for a few more minutes, before finally allowing him to catch her. Unfortunately, while she came to a stop, Nick would not have enough time to do so, ending up with her getting knocked down on to the ground and taking Nick with her. Though this did nothing to halt her laughter and smile.

"Well now! You really do live for speed, neh?"

He ends up on top of her, and makes no real effort to move. Once, he would have been careful, backed off some, even if she was cute. She's come a long way though, and she knows him - and sooner or later, has to take credit for her own decisions, this one included.

"Live fast, always." he replies, with a twinkle in his eye. "I think you let me catch you though."

"Who, moi?" She smirked pointing to herself as she looked up at Nick. Her face was flushed again, feeling him on top of her. This was a bit new to her and despite feeling a bit uncomfortable with Nick on top of her, she also felt good at the same time. Not taking the time to dwell on this and sort it out, she giggled and poked him in the nose. "Ah ain' one to let'cha win. Ah mean, ah couldn' stand it when Ennie would beat me in pinball. So why would ah let'cha win?"

He throws caution to the wind, and kisses her, hard. Live fast.

Its a couple minutes later before he has his mouth free to speak. "You were hoping I'd do that?"

This completely took her by surprise... then again, when ANYONE kissed her, it surprised her. This actually got her to shut up and close those red on black eyes of hers. They were kissing rather hard, passionate for a few minutes before he broke away and spoke.

"Actually, to be honest... ah wasn' expectin' dat at all, Nick." Alisa was close to gasping for air at this point. All she could do was just look at Nick, slightly stunned by his actions, but a bit happy at the same time. Someone finally saw her as a woman... who know that someone would be Nick!

He rolls over - nice to pin her for a bit, but he doesn't want to make her too uncomfortable, and he's fine with her resting on him. "I didn't say you were expecting it, just hoping." he replies with a grin.

She saw his grin and giggled, looking up at the sky before them. It was starting to turn a bright blue color, proof that it was still the middle of the day, and soon to be dusk. Alisa thought about what Nick said, and pretty hard, before she gave him an answer.

"Final, ah admit it... ah was hopin' for dat. But ah wasn' holdin' mah breath for it." Her head turned back to him, a small smirk on her face. "Kinda gave up on hopin' for stuff after awhile. Now ah jus' go by "if it happens it happens, if it don' happen, den it wasn' meant ta be" mentality."

He lays back, enjoying the view, sobering a bit. "Its a good philosophy... and honestly, before, you weren't ready. Not to say things are sunshine and roses now... I'm not good boyfriend material, I'm not going to be around, this doesn't mean things are all serious. But you're a big girl, your therapist is saying good things. You've done your part to come out of things being in a bad way. Figured it was time I stopped treating you with kid gloves."

"Well, ah'm glad someone finally stopped treating me wit' kid gloves... it was gettin' annoyin' ." She kept looking over at him, smiling as she slipped her hand into his, lacing her fingers between his fingers. "Ah know you ain' around alot, Nick. but ah'll tell you dis, it's still nice to 'ave one person in dis whole world who don' care about what wrong you do, how long you gone, an' 'ow different you are from de world. Jus' havin' one person like dat, it's a treasure. gives you purpose, an' a reason to come back every so often."

Alisa spoke honestly to Nick, a good quality she managed to keep. She moved a little closer, kissing his cheek. "Knowin' jus' one person gives a damn about yah, no matter 'ow far apart you are... dat good enough for me."

He nods, sobered and more thoughtful now, but definitely not pushing her away. "Alright, just wanted you to know - we can try this, see where it goes. Can't promise nothing more than a good time right now... but that I can do. And with the shop, with Irina, and with you around... well, I'm starting to like the idea of making sure I keep coming back."

"Like ah said, Nick... ah gave up on hopin' ." She sighed, placing her hands behind the back of her head now, just looking up at the sky. "Ah don' expect you to stay around, an' ah manage jus' fine when you gone. But ah will admit ah do miss you when you are. An' oui... ah'm finally feelin' like ah can give almost anyt'ing a try, now."

Her smile remained, as her eyes shifted to look back over at him. "An' ah'm glad Irina, de shop, an' mahself make you wanna keep comin' back... t'ought ah wonder why ah am on dat list."

He nods. "Don't give up on hoping... someday, you're going to meet a nice boy who'll be good to you, give you what you need. And when it happens, go for it, no expectations here. But you're cute, you're a hard worker, and you and me... we got a lot of the same demons in our past. Nice talking to someone now and then that gets you, you know?"

"Nice boys are nuthin' but fairy tales. Dey jus' about as real as unicorns who fart rainbows." She grinned, giggling at her own comment. "An' yeah, ah know whatcha mean. It's nice to be around someone who knows you inside an' out like a good engine. Dey know how you run, what makes you run, an' if sumt'ing wrong."

She gave off a long sigh, closing her eyes for awhile. "We're two o' a kind, Nick."

He shifts a little, resting his hands on her hips. "Nah, they're not. I'm sure they're out there somewhere. But you see something that works for you, don't wait on me, ok? But meanwhile, long as you know what you're getting into, I ain't going to stop you."

"Why should ah, when ah'm happy wit' what ah got?" She blushed a little, feeling Nick's hands on her hips. She was still a typical street kid, if you got your hands on anything you deemed good, you cherished it, you loved it, and you took care of it for as long as you could. Even if it was junk, it was cherished. but Nick was not junk, sure, he'd never be around all the time... but she could not help but feel like he always sold himself short. Of course she would never tell him that to his face.

"What's on yah mind?"

"Working out where we go from here." he replies casually. "I know you ain't had much experience, and I don't want to hurt you... especially after all you been through. But thinking a steak dinner, a few drinks, and heading back to the shop and the bunk ain't sounding like a bad idea at all, and we can figure the rest out later."

Alisa looked stunned again as she turned her head to look at Nick. She just had a quizzical expression on her face.

"Woah, woah... you mean... you'd wanna... wit' me?" She pointed to herself, as if this were a foreign concept to her. "Did you drink anyt'ing before we left? Ah mean... ah jus'... it's me, Nick. Why would you even wanna..."

He nods. "Alisa, you're a beautiful woman... you've filled out and grown up a lot the past couple months. And sooner or later, you ought to be treated like a woman. Why wouldn't I?"

She first wanted to ask if he was dropped on his head. Then she wanted to tell him she felt like used goods, and wasn't good enough for him. But then she remembered what her therapist had been telling her. All her self doubt, he self loathing was because she did not think highly of herself, or worthy for anything. She was just as worthy as any other woman on this planet. The fact Nick wanted to do such a thing with her, spoke volumes. She was someone beautiful, and he certainly thought so.

"Ah dunno... But, ah guess ah feel honored anyone would wanna do... well... dat wit' me. After all ah been t'ough, Nick. T'ank you. Umm... you still wanna go for Steak, now? Ah mean... we probably covered in grass stains right now."

That draws a laugh. "Yeah, there's no dress code, they get half their business from truckers... we might get some odd looks, but, you know, fuck 'em. And... when we've had dinner, you know, if you're not ready, just say so, and we'll take things slow." he replies.

"As long as you promise me dat you gonna take t'ings slow wit' me, den ah'm up for it." She smirked at his comment about them walking in like this and getting funny looks. Alisa slowly sat up, trying to fix her hair up. "Yeah... screw'em, our money is jus' as green as dere's, neh? An' ah guess so are our clothes..."

"Now you're getting it. We make good money at the shop, not as good as when you get certified, but you're started on that. We may as well live like it now and then." he agrees, letting her straddle him when she sits up.

"Don't worry, nice and slow and easy. Won't even tie you up."

"Oh... oh yeah... you into dat, huh." She turned red, looking down at him. "Maybe... ah'll warm up to dat latr on? Ah dunno... ah mean... ah still got some issues wit' restraint. Ah mean... ah trust you an' all, Nick... fuck, ah trust you wit' mah life. But... dat jus'... is sumt'ing ah don' feel like ah'm ready for. Ah umm... hope dat doesn' kill dis for you."

She slowly tried to stand up. She then realized that from her standing over Nick, her could see up her dress and she yelped, moving away from him, looking a bit embarrassed. For the record, Alisa seemed to have a love of polka dot undies.

He appreciates the upskirt view, then stands, grinning wickedly. "You've seen the bunk and all, I figured you knew what I was into. Don't worry any, no, it doesn't kill anything for me. And if it never goes there, that's fine. I can always tie Irina up." Yeah, best to be blunt, this isn't an exclusive thing, and if she didn't know it, then best to make sure.
"Tonight, you get steak, and even if its a stained matress in a shop, I do my best to treat you like a queen. Believe me, I understand - you don't ever have to do anything you're not ok with."
