My Way To You 209 Talking About You

"There is nothing wrong with seeing a naked body! Have you not gone to the bathhouse. There are so many naked people there!" Lobo shouted as he pulled up a pair of black slacks. "That's different you are with your own gender! A man and woman shouldn't see each other naked unless they're married!" Ariana shouted back as she kept her eyes covered with her hands. "You nag too much. Clothes as such a hassle, back home many men and women walk around naked." Lobo stated with a humpf.

"You're lying! There is no way everyone is walking around naked!" Ariana rebutted. "Your right everyone walking around is usually in the hoom annoyed form." Lobo said with a chuckle. "I still don't believe you! You can't even pronounce it! Why are you teasing me?!" Ariana shouted. "Calm down Ariana." Mr. Dabney said as he patted Ariana's head. "Easy for you to say! You are already married! I haven't yet! What if Cayden thinks I'm cheating on him or something?" Ariana started to cry.

Mr. Dabney removed his hand and started to scratch his cheek. "I don't think Cayden would think that." Mr. Dabney said awkwardly. "There my shirt is on." Lobo announced like he accomplished something menial. Ariana removed her hands and she stared at Lobo with red eyes. "You don't think he would misunderstand? We were alone by a lake and you were butt naked!" Ariana shouted as she pointed an accusing finger at Lobo. "Like he would think anything bad. We males mate for life and are very territorial. If something happened between us I would battle him for you." Lobo said as he snorted hot air.

"He won't misunderstand me then?" Ariana said as she calmed down considerably. "Hell no! Beside I know you and him had done way more than see each other naked and you're not married." Lobo said with a wide grin. Ariana flushed a deep red and Mr. Dabney stared at Ariana with astonishment. "You f*cker!" Ariana shouted as she lunged at Lobo. "Hey, hey, hey! No fighting inside my house! I have a wife and newborn in the house." Mr. Dabney said firmly as he caught Ariana mid jump.

"Let go! I need to teach this piece of sh*t a lesson!" Ariana shouted as she clawed the air. "I know." Mr. Dabney said as he walked to the door. He opened it and tossed Ariana out. Ariana landed on her rump with a couple of bounces. She looked back and saw that Mr. Dabney had grabbed Lobo and tossed him out too. Lobo landed beside Ariana with a thud. "Fight outside. When. You're done come inside I want to talk to both of you." Mr. Dabney said before he slammed the door.

Ariana jumped on Lobo and started to beat him senselessly. After a good ten minutes both of them walked back in to the bungalow. Ariana looked completely refreshed, her dress was covered in dirt and blood while Lobo looked black and blue. Vasu had returned earlier and just watched the fight from the porch. He happily cheered Ariana on and called out a few moves as Ariana happily complied. "Better?" Mr. Dabney asked as he pour each a glass of ice tea. "Very." Ariana replied as she went to wash her hands. "Sure." Lobo said pathetically as he waited to the side of Ariana.

"Vasu do you mind?" Ariana asked as she flicked her hands dry the walked over to the counter. She reached out and took her glass of ice tea. Vasu floated towards Ariana and waited for his hug. "No, go heal Lobo first." Ariana said after she gulped some ice tea. Vasu looked reluctant but Ariana wrapped her arm around her waist while her other hand was preoccupied. 'Fine.' Vasu replied as he shoved his whole body in to Lobo's bruised abdomen. Lobo let out a loud hissing sound as Vasu made contact. "Oh." Lobo said in surprise as Vasu glowed a soft pink.

'There.' Vasu said as he moved away and floated towards Ariana. 'Now open.' He said as he stared at Ariana. "You only half healed him?" Ariana asked as she raised an eyebrow at Vasu. 'It's enough. I'm tired. Now open.' Vasu said flatly as he continued to stare at Ariana. "Fine." Ariana chuckled as she removed her arm from her waist. Vasu moved into position and waited for Ariana to hug him. Vasu looked absolutely content as he assumed his favourite spot.

"So your mom was really the jewel eyed priestess?" Lobo said nonchalantly before he chugged back his ice tea. Mr. Dabney and Ariana quietly looked at one another then at Lobo. "You know I'm not the only who thinks that. Everyone is debating if you are or not. Quite the mess you made for yourself." Lobo said as he placed his empty cup into the sink. "Lobo, be honest with me. What do you know?" Ariana asked as she looked at her half empty cup.

"Can I say in front of Mr. Dabney?" Lobo asked as he faced Ariana, he then leaned slightly on to the sink. "Pascal, Roselyn and Evelyn know everything about me." Ariana said firmly. "Even the part that you are a taboo?" Lobo asked with a shocked expression. "Yes, wait no not Evelyn. She knows everything but doesn't know that I'm considered a taboo." Ariana said as she furrowed her brows.

"Alright. Just so that you feel a little bit at ease. I have not told anyone else what I know. As far as I care the others don't need to know and the only person who should know is Cayden but I haven't seen him." Lobo said as he crossed his arms over his chest while staring at Ariana. "So you know who I am, what I am." Ariana said in a weak voice. "Yes and no. I only know that you have a complicated life. I have only been watching you at night after Cayden left. Icarus watches over you during the day and Xander takes the afternoon shift." Lobo explained.

"So you showing up at the library was not a coincidence." Ariana asked. "No, I'm sorry." Lobo said with a sigh as he dropped his arms.
