Guns and Dust Ch. 02

He nodded. "I'm glad." She felt the sting in her neck. He set the injector aside and dropped his face against her ear, nuzzled in her damp hair. He pulled her close.

She held his arms tightly and curled up against him, pulling his hand around and cupping it on her breast.

He reached back again as she felt him shaking something as she fell asleep. The last thing she felt was the blanket he pulled a blanket over them.

It was still light when Adina woke from her post orgasm nap to the sound of light metal against metal. She lifted her head and Asher was not far away, dressed, but without his coat on, removing things from a crate. She could see her clothes hanging in the sun on a clothes line. She rolled over and stretched just watching the way Asher's shirt pulled across his broad back. He'd changed clothes; both his shirt and pants were different. She looked around again and saw his other clothes laid out on rocks. She smiled thinking about his hands on her and the tremendous orgasms they caused. She couldn't remember ever cumming that hard. It had almost knocked her out.

"Asher?"

He turned and smiled, setting down the things he had in his hands and coming to her. "How do you feel?"

She stretched, making sure her breasts appeared from beneath the blanket for him as she did, smiling. "Good. Tired."

He smiled at her showing off her beautiful breasts to him and settled down on the tarp next to her. He put a hand on her face, feeling her skin, then her neck.

"You feel alright?"

She nodded. "Mmm hmm." She stretched again and reached up putting a hand on his chest. "Thank you. That was... amazing." She turned and looked at the water. "I better clean up."

He let his fingers trail through the hair on the side of her neck. "Okay."

She wrapped the blanket around her and headed for the water. She'd only taken a few steps before she felt woozy. Her head was suddenly splitting, and everything was starting to spin. Asher's arm was suddenly around her.

"I don't feel very good."

He picked her up and when he laid her down again it was on something springy -a cot. At her curious look, he answered. "It's only big enough for one." She laid her head down and there was a pillow, then squeezed her eyes shut against the now blinding pain behind them.

She felt him push hair out of her face. "It's the inoculant." His hand was under her head, lifting. "Drink this. It will help."

She did, suddenly not having the strength to fight. Even the strength to drink seemed to be draining out of her. It tasted salty, tangy and bitter. She made a face.

"I know. Drink it all. You're going to need the electrolytes." She did as he asked, but it was only through sheer will. As soon as she finished drinking her whole body seemed to succumb to gravity as if she could feel each bone being pulled down.

"You'll be alright. It's just going to be a rough day or so." She opened her eyes at his fingers running over her brow. "I'm going to be right here, Adina."

She put her hand on his and smiled weakly. "I know. I trust you." Then she closed her eyes.
