Skip, Cut, and Destory

[athena callidora xander]

Athena smirked at the boy. He was a bit unpredictable and yet..interesting and a bit intriguing to her as well. Though, it was all a bit weird and in a way, new to her as well. But honestly, even though the girl would never admit, she was still very afraid of letting anyone in her heart. Especially a guy. Hell, she still flinched away from her own father from time to time, it had become a habit for her and one she felt she would never let go of.

Athena just rolled her eyes, glad that her back was still facing him. She knew how most guys tended to be around her, even the hunters that were guys and knew that she is just as strong as they are. But, they always would think differently. They always got showed differently though. Hearing his question, she let out a small sigh as she stopped, just standing where she was at and stared off into a dark corner "Of course I can." she told him, about to turn around to face him and give him a glare.

But, it didn't happen. All she felt was the arms going around her and the warm breath on her ear. Did she really hear the words or even realize it was still Tristan, just being..well, dumb? Well, maybe a small part of her sane brain, but the other part. No. She felt herself wanting to scream and flinch away, but the hunter and fighter inside of her won over it and before she could stop herself, Athena elbowed him hard in the stomach, twisted around in his arms and attacked him to the ground, grabbing a hold of his wrist in her hands and pinning his arms to the ground above his head as she straddled him and held him down with all of her strength. As with any other time she would be fighting, Athena only saw red, a pure hatred glare on her face and in her eyes as she stared down at Tristan.

Tristan.. her mind whispered to her and she felt her face go completely blank of all emotion. She still stayed on top of him, pinning him down as she closed her eyes and lowered her head a bit, biting hard on her bottom lip and shaking her head some. Athena opened her eyes and looked towards Tristan. How the hell did she even explain this? She couldn't tell him the truth..or even why such a simple little thing would even make her go nuts like that.

[Tristan James Gray]

His arms wrapped around Athena, Tristan couldn't help but notice the warmth between them. Also how hard his heart was pounding. He was nearly sure she'd be able to feel it. It was all he could hear, pounding in his mind. Next thing he heard though, was the wind coming out of his stomach. He tried to move away from her when she grabbed him, after the elbow in the stomach. Okay so she was strong. Then he was on the ground, really strong. He had a large stupid grin on his face. His heart was racing even more, and other parts of him, where waking up because of the position they where in. He just smiled at her, "I like it," he said in a low voice because of how close they where he didn't think he had to be to loud. "I like a girl who can stand up for herself" he said looking at her. Then he looked at his hands, still pinned above his head by her.

"You know if you wanted to be on top of me, all you had to do was ask" he said with a smirk on his face. He could see some anger in her eyes, and he knew that strength like that didn't typically come without anger. He'd gotten the spark out of her, that he wanted, and now he was hooked. He knew the next thing he needed to do though, was to calm her down. Tristan sat there for a moment, and moved his hands out of her grip slowly. It was a pain but he got to do it. He looked at her, she had her eyes closed, and he didn't like that. He wanted to touch her, touch her face, touch her hair, touch her everywhere, fill his senses with her. But he wasn't sure if she would be okay with that. "Athena," her name came out of his throat, and then a pause. While he debated his next action. It may have been the only time all afternoon he thought before he did something, and once he realized he was thinking. He stopped, and leaned forward, placing his lips on hers. It was a soft kiss, not forceful at all, almost hesitating, waiting for her to except this or break away. Until he pulled away from her lips, and looked at her.

Though she saw his lips moving, the words he spoke didn't really reach her mind. She was just..a bit numb really. She wasn't suppose to attack humans, they were ones she was to be protecting. Athena was feeling horrible and she knew she should just get up and get as far away from this boy as possible. Her mind clicked back to reality when she heard him say her name and noticed that he hand his wrist free from her hands. The girl became very aware of his body under her own and how close their faces really were to each other. There was a part of her that just wanted to punch the hell out of this boy, but another part just wanted to be held by him, to have his arms wrapped around her like he did earlier before she attacked him.

But all thought left her mind when she felt his warm lips pressed against her own. It was a soft kiss and it took her by a bit of surprise. Athena felt her eyes close slowly and she started to give in until he pulled away. The very female girl inside of her told her to lean down and continue to kiss him, but that very scared little girl inside of her screamed for her to run. And the hunter inside of her told her to beat the hell out of him. Athena couldn't help but to give in to the little girl and hunter inside of her and she came to an equal with the two. She opened her eyes and slapped him hard across his face, a deathly glare coming across her face as she stared down at him "Don't you ever. Ever. Try to grab me or kiss me again." she threaten, before she got off of him and stood up, a bit away from him, with her hands on her hips.

[Tristan James Gray]

Tristan wasn't really sure what had come over him. Yeah sure he was a party boy. Sure he liked girls, and was rash with his actions. Typically he had more class though, more self control when it came to his urges of wanting to do the opposite sex. Normally he never would have kissed her like that. Never would have just grabbed her lips with his. Something happened though when he looked at her. Something inside of him broke. He wasn't sure what it was, maybe the look on her face, or the way she was pressing into him. All he knew though was that he wanted his lips to touch hers, and so they had. Leaning forward he'd taken what he wanted. Shared a little bit of himself with this girl, this goddess named Athena.

When the kiss was over. There was something inside of him that he'd never felt before. It started in his stomach, and made it feel fuzzy. His heart was beating so fast, and all he could do was look at her. Look at her in wonder, and amazement, written clearly on his face. Until reality came down on him, hard. Her hand across his face brought him back to the world. Slowed his heart down, and suddenly she was off of him and they weren't touching anymore. Her words were in his ears instead of floating away somewhere. He pulled himself up and looked at her, "Is that really how you feel?" he asked. Sitting up, for a minute catching his breath, and making sure he could think about his heart beat. Was it were it should be, after a minute of listening to it, and making sure it was he looked at her. His normal cocky smirk back on his face. He brought himself to a standing position.

He didn't move near her though, "I rather thought you enjoyed that." he said looking at her. "I know I did." when he said that last line it was almost like he was surprised by it. Well maybe not surprised, but he was still thinking about it. How much he'd like to do it again. "Though I'm pretty sure you could kick my ass, so I'll do as you like....for now/" he said. It was the best she was going too get out of him. After all he lived by the theory that rules were meant for breaking.

[athena callidora xander]

Athena made her pose a threatening one as she looked down at her Tristan, her hands gripping a bit tightly to her own hips "Yes, that is how I really feel." she said with a bit of venom behind her words. But in the back of her mind, she could see feel the way his body had felt under her own, the warmth of his lips and how soft the kiss had been. His touch was gentle. And god, how she liked it. That scared her the most.

Another glare formed onto her face, a bit of a deathly one at that "You better do as I like, or else you'll get neutered faster than you can even think about it." she threaten him. Athena took a small step towards him, hoping to show that she was threatening and as deadly as she was making herself seem "Just be thankful you got a warning. Most don't even get that." she told him.

OOC: uggh. sorry. that one was short D:

[Tristan James Gray]

Tristan looked at her, she seemed pretty upset. Part of him wanted to regret kissing her, but he knew what she tasted like now. What the feel of her lips against his was, it was something....unknown to him. Addiction was growing inside of him. Her pushing him away, made him want to come closer to her. "Alright," he said nodding her head.

She started to glare at him, and he felt a shiver go down his back. Still he didn't show anything on his face. He smirked at her, words. "Alright, alright, no need for any of that now." he said holding up his hands in surrender. When she stepped closer to him, he looked at her, there was an attraction between them. It was only made bolder by the kiss, when she came closer to him. He also took a step closer to her, he wanted to come closer to her and touch her again. "Well now, I suppose I should leave you alone Goddess, " still as he said the words. He came another step closer, not thinking as usual.

He was almost close enough to close the gap between them. He touched her arm gently with his hand. He closed his eyes, and dropped his hand after a moment. "Sorry," he said but the tone he used wasn't sorry. He looked at her in the eyes, trying to read her mind, past the anger. He didn't really think she was angry, what was going on inside of her. What had happened, that was making her deny what was between them.

Athena kept the glare on her face, as she continued to look towards Tristan. Though, a part of her wanted to just drop the glare, sigh deeply and tell him that she was sorry and didn't really mean anything she was saying god. why am i feeling this way?? he's just a simple stupid human who doesn't even seem to care whether he lives or dies. she thought mentally, making sure to give no evidence on her face as to what she was thinking.

Though, when he stepped closer to her, she felt her heart give a little jolt. It made her mentally slap herself and honestly, she was almost tempted to slap herself for real "That would be the wise choice there, Tristan." she said in a stern voice, standing her ground. She wasn't going to allow whatever it was that this human boy was doing to her let her guard down and she sure as hell was not going to let him get under her skin.

When she was going to tell him that she had enough of this foolishness, she felt his hand touching her arm. Even through the leather of her jacket, she could feel the warmth of his hand on her own and it made chills rise up on her skin. Her eyes looked down at his hand before she looked up at him and she began to feel her stern, toughness begin to falter a bit as she stared right back at him. Athena knew his tone was nothing but sorry for doing what he did. Athena squared her shoulders and adverted her gaze away from his and saw that the sun was getting close to setting. She cursed under her breath and shoved past him "If you were even sane, you'd leave this factory and area before the sun sets." she stopped walking, standing a few feet away from him with her back to him. Athena turned just slightly to look back at him "Unless you really want to laugh in the face of death." with that, she turned back around and continued walking towards the door.

[Tristan James Gray]

Tristan looked at her, and looked around the warehouse. He could tell something was spooking her about the place. He thought about facing death straight on, as she put it and staying. But as always when he thought about doing something potentially life taking, ___. He sighed, and shook his head, "As much as I'd love to stick around, I have a little lady at home who wouldn't be to happy if I passed away," he said with a smirk, not looking at her but looking outside. At the falling sun, she was probably upset that he wasn't home already, he promised to cook her favorite dinner tonight. He shook his head, and brought his gaze back to her, "It's not my time yet," he said looking at her. Something showed on his face he knew, sorrow, that he knew his time, knew it was coming up.

Then he did something he shouldn't have. He'd closed to gap between them. Walking closer to her without thinking, when he looked in her eyes. He leaned down, and captured her lips with his once more. When he pulled back he had a smirk on his face. He'd held himself against her longer, slipping his arms, around her, and pulling her closer, so she wouldn't fight the kiss. Now that it was over, he gave her a true smile, "Sorry, something about those candy lips. I can't help myself," he said looking at her. Before jumping away before she could hit him in anyway. He booked it for the door, skateboard forgotten, he stepped out of the warehouse. Greeting the cold air, with a smile on his face. He knew he should leave, and he'd upset her. He shouldn't push her buttons anymore, pushing a little got interesting, pushing to much only made people upset with him.

I figured this could be the end. And I'm going to post the Party thread today promise!
