Rebekah
Rebekah folded a pair of black pants and placed them on top of the other clothes in her suitcase. She quickly surveyed her room, and then with a short nod, she closed her bag with a final zip. She handed it to Jules, who ported out, promising to come back in ten minutes for her.
She left her room, closing the door gently behind her, then walked up to Jono's room, to see if he was ready to go.
Jonothon
"I'll catch ya on AOL, or MSN, ok, vato?" Angelo said morosley as he watched JOnothon finish packing.
There was a whole lot of black clothes, bitter music cds and notebooks in the bag. Not much else, really. Jonothon picked up his duffel bag and his guitar, looking at Angelo.
"Yeah, seeing as 'ow I can't talk into a phone."
Angelo shrugged slightly.
"Life's a bitch, vato."
Rebekah
Rebekah knocked on the door, then walked in.
"Hey Jono, Angelo... sorry to take him away."
Jonothon
"Long as you bring him back in one piece, chika," Angelo said, sticking his hands in his pockets.
Jonothon went and kissed her cheek gently.
"We going now?"
Rebekah
Rebekah smiled and nodded.
"Yeah, I will. I'll try not to break him."
She trailed her fingers over Jono's arm.
"Mmm, Jules is coming in a moment."
Jonothon
"See you in a bit, Ange," Jonothon said.
"Yeah, I guess," ANgelo said.
"Oh, c'mon..."
Rebekah
Rebekah felt a little guilty, because she was the one taking Jono away, so she decided to give the two friends a moment to talk, while she waited for Jules.
"I'll see you later Angelo," she said softly, going down to her room again.
Jonothon
"It's cool, vato, just...go after your girl," Angelo said.
Jonothon looked at him seriously.
"Still weirded out by what happened?"
"LIttle bit...but I'll get over it. I know it won't happen again."
"Bek likes you...and I don't like to see you 'urting, mate."
"Vato, it's alright. Now, go on. I'll talk to you later."
"Alright, cobber..."
They hugged briefly and then Jonothon picked up his stuff and went down to Bek's room.
Rebekah
Rebekah looked up and smiled at Jono as he walked in, then nodded at Jules, who saluted at Jono.
He took touched their shoulders, and ported them to the hotel in Sydney.
"I'll see ya at the Brissy one, Bek," Jules said, hugging her briefly.
"Bye."
Jules winked and ported out, and Rebekah turned to Jono.
"How's Angelo?"
JOnothon
"Alright...I think," JOnothon said slowly.
"It's just...you know, he sees us and other couples and yeah..."
Rebekah and Millsy
Rebekah nodded and sat down on her bed.
"I just - "
She was cut short by Millsy barging in, Kelly at his heels.
"She could've been naked, Rob," Kelly scolded.
"Oh hush, Kel, she would've locked the door if she was naked," Millsy replied.
"Hey Bek, Jono."
Rebekah rolled her eyes slightly.
"Hey Kel."
"What about me? I'm sooooo hurt, Bek!"
Jonothon
Jonothon looked at Millsy, one eyebrow raised in contempt.
"Hey, ducks. So, Bek, wot exactly do yer 'ave to do?"
Rebekah and Millsy
"Dicko arranged for me to sing at some nightclub thing. Which, hmmm, I should probably get ready for," Rebekah mused.
"Why didn't he get me a gig?" Millsy pouted.
"Because no one likes you," Kelly said, nodding.
"You smell. And you suck. And you're going to hell for flashing us last time we all went out."
Millsy grinned.
"That was funny."
Jonothon
Jonothon glared at Millsy.
"I'd say yer really haven't got anything worth showing off, mate. Yer act like yer have something to make up for."
Rebekah and Millsy
Rebekah grinned and grabbed some clothes, then headed into the bathroom.
"Actually, I didn't intend to flash you all last time, that was evil Lauren's doing," Millsy protested.
"But you flashed us voluntarily, ages ago," Kelly shot.
Rebekah emerged from the bathroom, moments later, dressed in a 3/4 length satin black skirt, black strappy heels, and a pale blue corset style top, with laces on the front.
Jonothon
Jonothon traced his fingers over his black bandages thoughtfully, looking at Bek.
"Should I get some more fancy clobber on, luv?"
Rebekah
"Not if you don't want to," Rebekah replied, kissing his nose.
She walked over to where Jules had left her things and picked up her guitar case.
"We're all coming to watch," Kelly said, grinning.
"'Cept Levi, who's doing some family thing tonight. But like Matt, Paulini and stuff, everyone."
Jonothon
"Tav tell you, since all the big record companies have knocked us back, and most of the independants for the fact we're not hiding we're mutants, he's going to start a record label?" JOnothon said to Bek as he grabbed his black leather bikie jacket out of his bag.
"Gonner call it 'X-records'."
Rebekah
"That's whoa... a big thing. But it's good, not only for you, but for others."
Rebekah picked up her guitar and they all headed downstairs to the waiting limo.
Jonothon
"Jean and Scott are doing a whole big thing bout it," JOnothon said in disgust.
"They don't approve. Think we're drawing too much attention to ourselves. Bullshite. The Brotherhood gets more publicity then any more well natured mutants, and then we'll be reading bout more mutie killings by FOH. People know mutants exist, and they know the X-men exist. Yer can't uncrack eggs."
Rebekah
Rebekah shrugged slightly.
"Jean and Scott are incredibly stupid. And that's all I really had there."
She got out of the limo once it had driven them round the back of the nightclub, and they were ushered inside by security.
Jonothon
"Prof thinks it's a good idea," Jonothon said.
"Wot are yer singing?"
Rebekah
"Something new."
Rebekah smiled shyly and then pushed him towards the front of the stage, where the other idols were sitting.
"But hopefully you'll like it."
She brushed her lips over his bandages, and then followed Dicko backstage.
Jonothon
Jonothon steadily made his way to the front where the idols were sitting, mentally imaging slow painful deaths for every member of the audience that thought pitying thoughts about his bandages.
"Hey."
He sat down with the idols, thumb brushing over the edge of his bandages on his face.
Rebekah
"Hey," Paulini replied, smiling at Jono, then looking back up on stage as Bek came on.
"She looks good," Matt commented.
"Mmm," Peter agreed.
"She looks happy."
Rebekah smiled at them, then sat on the stool, lifting her guitar into her lap. She let her fingers glide over the strings, a slow melody playing out, with backing up piano music from John Foreman.
"I love how your strength
Is taller than your stature
I love how your presence
Can make me feel safe
And I love how your eyes
Look into my soul..."
She looked at Jono and smiled shyly.
"I hate that I can't take
The pain from your life
I hate that you hear those things
That should never be thought
And if I could change the world
I would do it for you, my love
But I love how your hands
Can cover mine up
And I love how your arms
Make me feel warm
I love how you lie there
And watch while I sleep
I love when I wake up
You're the first thing I see..."
Rebekah's fingers danced over her guitar, a long instrumental playing. She let go of her powers for a moment, letting her love for Jono slide across the room, before she reeled it back in.
"And I'll stay here forever
To save you from the dark
I'll cover your ears
From words that cause friction
I'd die and come back
Just for your smile
And now I can see
Where the heartache had left me
Everything I suffered
I suffered for you
All that time wasted
And all those tears cried
Added up to you
And this feeling of perfection
When I lie in your arms
So darling J, just close your eyes
And in the darkness
We'll chase the hate away..."
Jonothon
Jonothon ducked his head slightly, smiling to himself. Well, if they were both musicians then they were both bound to write songs about each other, weren't they?
"Luv yer too, pet."
Rebekah and Millsy
Rebekah smiled at him as she finished playing, then her fingers played a faster tune on her guitar.
"Walk in a corner shop
See a shoplifting cop
See the old lady with a gun
See the hero try to run
Nothing's what it seems, I mean
It's not all dirty, but it's not all clean
There's children paying bills
There's monks buying thrills
There's pride for sale in magazines
There's pills for rent to make you clean
Marvin Gaye, there's no brother, brother
Woody Guthrie's land can't feed Mother
Mothers weep, children sleep
So much violence ends in silence
It's a shame there's no one to blame
For all the pain that life brings
If you will just take me it might just complete me
And together we can make a stand
A waitress brings me lunch
We meet but do not touch
On TV, D.C. is selling lies
While in the corner, King's dream dies
Go to the counter, pay for me and my friend
A homeless man pulls out a roll, says it's on him
The mayor has no cash
He said he spent it on hookers and hash
Mothers weep, children sleep
So much violence ends in silence
It's a shame there's no one to blame
For all the pain that life brings
If you will just take me it might just complete me
And together we can make a stand
You will love me, I will love you
Mothers weep, children sleep
So much violence ends in silence
It's a shame there's no one to blame
For all the pain that life brings
If you will just take me it might just complete me
And together we can make a stand..."
OOC: "Stand" - Jewel
Jonothon
JOnothon leaned back in his chair, watching her. He 'listened' in
on people, gauging their reaction to Bek's music and was very happy
for her to discover it was good.
Rebekah
Rebekah played a few more songs, then headed out to hang out with
the idols and Jono.
"She's gotten better," Kelly said, nodding.
"Well, she wasn't ever bad," Matt replied.
"Ok, that's true, but she's not as shy."
Jonothon
Jonothon reached out as she got to them and pulled her down into
his lap, nuzzling her neck with the rough bandages.
"Did good."
Rebekah
Rebekah blushed slightly, and took his hand, entwining their
fingers.
"Merci."
"Yeah, but the dewey looks again," Paulini teased.
Jonothon
Jonothon used two fingers on his free hand to flip a rude gesture
at Paulini.
"Sod off."
Rebekah
"But it was so sappy," Matt joined in.
"With the looks and the words and the smiles, and then the
power... Bek, spare us."
Rebekah stuck her tongue out at Matt.
Jonothon
"F*ck yer and the horse yer rode in on too," Jonothon
fairly snarled.
"Better yet, *you* go f*ck the sodding horse."
Rebekah
Rebekah grinned at Matt's look, then hopped up.
"Hmm, well I could use an early night," she said, winking at Jono.
Jonothon
"Wotever, luv," Jonothon said easily, ignoring the idols.
"Back to the 'otel then?"
Rebekah
Rebekah nodded and took his hand, leading him back out to the
limo.
Once they were seated inside, she slid her hand into his pants.
Jonothon
"So, obviously not pissed at how I bit back at yer
friends?" Jonothon said, hips bucking up slightly.
He put his hand under her skirt and rubbed her gently through the
material of her knickers.
Rebekah
"Not really no."
Rebekah undid his pants and then took his length in her mouth.
Jonothon
"Bleedin' Christ!"
Jonothon let his head hit the seat hard, closing his eyes.
Rebekah
Rebekah smiled slightly and hummed around him, licking slowly
around his head, before engulfing him.
Jonothon
"Bekkkk...oh godddd..."
JOnothon's hips thrust upwards helplessly.
Rebekah
Rebekah hummed around him again, one hand running over Jono's
face gently.
Jonothon
"Oh god...Bek!"
Jonothon's back arched as he came.
Rebekah
Rebekah swallowed and sat up, licking her lips.
"Mmm."
Jonothon
Jonothon reached out and traced his fingers around her lips.
"Luv yer."
Rebekah
Rebekah kissed his fingers and leant against him.
"Love you too."
They pulled up outside the hotel, and then went upstairs.
Rebekah put her guitar on the ground in the corner.
"So... you wanna talk to Angelo or anything?"
Jonothon
"Check and see if he's online, mebbe," JOnothon said.
"He's just..."
Jonothon shrugged slightly, dropping his jacket on a chair.
"Told him that it didn't have to be a one time thing, if he
wanted it. Yer ok with that?"
Rebekah
Rebekah nodded, getting changed into her pj's.
"Yeah, I just... I don't know... he seems weird around me."
Jonothon
Jonothon got changed into a pair of boxers, leaving his bandages
on.
"Yeah..."
Rebekah
Rebekah lay on the bed, watching Jono.
"It's weird, I can't get a reading on his feelings. It's just
confusing, I guess."
Jonothon
Jonothon crawled in beside her, wrapping her in his arms.
"Mmm...sex makes things difficult."
Rebekah
"True."
Rebekah kissed his nose.
"But I wish he wouldn't treat me differently. It's not as like
he's in love with me now."
Jonothon
Jonothon nuzzled into her neck, holding her close.
"Hmm."
Rebekah
Rebekah smiled slightly.
"So... did you like my new song?"
Jonothon
"Yeah."
Jonothon rubbed his hand over her stomach slowly.
Rebekah
Rebekah lifted one of his hands to her lips and kissed his
fingers softly.
JOnothon
Jonothon smiled slowly with his eyes.
"Hmm, yeah?"
Rebekah
"I love you."
Rebekah smiled at him almost shyly.
JOnothon
"Love you too."
Jonothon rested his head against her shoulder, smelling her hair.
Rebekah
Rebekah closed her eyes for a moment.
"We're graduating soon."
Jonothon
"I know."
Jonothon nuzzled her neck.
"Gonner help Tav play a grand trick on our Fearless Leader and
the Mega Bitch. Once he figures out wot it's gonner be."
Rebekah
"We're so old."
Rebekah smiled.
"It's insane."
Jonothon
"Know wot I'm doing."
Jonothon sighed softly.
"Music."
Rebekah
"And me."
Rebekah grinned cheekily.
Jonothon
"Mebbe. But only if you love me."
Jonothon cuddled closer.
Rebekah
Rebekah laughed softly.
"Hmmmm... well I love you so shouldn't be a problem."
Jonothon
"Brill."
Jonothon's hand slid down her pants.
Rebekah
Rebekah jumped in surprise, then started to take Jono's bandages
off.
"No hiding," she said softly.
Jonothon
Jonothon said nothing but leant up to let her unwrap his
bandages. His fingers rubbed over her slowly.
Rebekah
Rebekah moaned softly, trailing her fingers through his flames.
"God..."
Jonothon
JOnothon writhed slowly, eyes rolling up in his head.
"Oh, *goddddd*..."
Rebekah
Rebekah kept one of her hands in the flames, while the other slid
down his pants.
JOnothon
"Oh...god...ahhhhh..."
JOnothon's back arched as he panted for breath through his nose.
Rebekah
Rebekah pushed Jono's pants down, and then lifted herself up,
sliding down over his length.
Jonothon
Jonothon's hands latched onto her hips, pushing up into her.
"Bek!"
Rebekah
"Jono..."
Rebekah started to rock gently, fingers trailing through his
flames.
Jonothon
Jonothon moaned, babbling Britishisms of endearment and cursing
mixed together.
"Ah, 'oly f*ck...Bek, pet..."
Rebekah
Rebekah's head fell back slightly, he eyes closing as she
tighened around him.
"Oh God..."
Jonothon
Jonothon rubbed his fingers over her gently, moaning. He leant up
slightly to kiss her.
Rebekah
Rebekah kissed him back, moaning into his mouth as she came.
"Jono!"
Jonothon
Jonothon's moans joined hers as he came hard.
"Oh god, Bek..."
Rebekah
Rebekah pulled her hand from the flame as it started to get a
little warmer, and she slid off Jono.
"Mmm," she said in contentment.
Jonothon
Jonothon closed his eyes, then opened them again.
"Bloody hell..."
Rebekah
Rebekah smiled faintly, and pushed her hair from her eyes.
"Yeah..."
Jonothon
Jonothon stirred slightly, then got up to wind his bandages back
on.
"You do know you're insane, right?"
Rebekah
Rebekah sat up and leant against the pillows.
"If we're back to you not believing I love you, come here."
Jonothon
"Mmm...not that," Jonothon said as he wound the bandages
up towards his face.
"Playing wiv me flares like that..."
Rebekah
Rebekah waited till he'd bandaged himself up, then pulled him
down next to her on the bed.
"I live on the edge."
Jonothon
"I see. Slumming it, are yer?" Jonothon said as he let her
pull him down.
He kissed her neck softly.
Rebekah
"Living it up, actually."
Rebekah kissed him gently, and looked into his eyes.
"Do you still not believe me?"
Jonothon
Jonothon looked away and rested his head on her shoulder. He
didn't answer her.
Rebekah
Rebekah took his hand and put it on her temple, then let her
shields slide down, allowing him to see into her mind and show him
the truth.
Jonothon
Jonothon sighed softly and swept her hair out of her face with
his fingers.
"Yer didn't have to do that."
Rebekah
"But I wanted to."
Rebekah kissed him gently, rebuilding her shields.
"I love you."
Jonothon
"Luv yer too, pet."
Jonothon sighed slightly, hugging her tightly.
Rebekah
Rebekah smiled and rested her head on his shoulder.
"So, you and Angelo..."
Jonothon
"Wot bout me and Ange?" JOnothon asked.
He raised his head slightly to look at her.
Rebekah
"Don't know... it was just kinda nice to watch."
Rebekah looked at him and smiled faintly.
Jonothon
"Mmph."
Jonothon laid his head back down and played with her hair,
fingering the strands with one hand.
"Ange is my best mate...he was me mate back when I was at
Emma's, right after I manifested. I don't want to mess with it."
Rebekah
"Understandable."
Rebekah leant over and kissed him gently.
"So... you said he could join in?"
Jonothon
"If he wants to. Sometimes."
Jonothon kissed her back.'
"And only wot he feels comfortable doing."
Rebekah
"He must get lonely if he's taking you up on the offer to see me
naked."
Rebekah smiled.
JOnothon
"Oh, lot of people want to see you naked."
Jonothon splayed his hand across her stomach possessively.
"But I don't want them to."
Rebekah
"It's alright, I'm not going to let anyone else see."
Rebekah's fingers played with his bandages.
"I wouldn't subject them to the horror."
JOnothon
"You're beautiful."
Jonothon smiled slightly.
Rebekah
"Says you."
Rebekah looked at him and grinned.
Jonothon
"Yeah, says me."
Jonothon raised an eyebrow.
"Yer calling me a liar?"
Rebekah
Rebekah shook her head.
"I just don't believe it about myself, is all."
Jonothon
"You're beautiful. Perfect, even."
Jonothon kissed her.
Rebekah
Rebekah blushed as she kissed him back, wrapping her arms around
his neck.
Jonothon
Jonothon kissed her deeply.
"Ready to sleep now?"
Rebekah
Rebekah nodded sleepily, sliding down and laying her head on the
pillow.
"Oui, but I hate leaving you awake."
Jonothon
"Eh, I don't mind."
Jonothon kissed her gently.
Rebekah
Rebekah kissed him back and closed her eyes.
"Still..."
She rolled over and dirfted off to sleep.
Jonothon
Jonothon ran his hand through her hair softly, then settled to
watch her sleep.
