Entering Janine's apartnt, I imdiately noticed that she was watching Tv with the air-conditioning on full blast while wearing another one of my t-shirts. 'Is she stealing them? How is she getting access to them?'
She evidently heard the elevator ding open as she turned her attention to the door and bead a smile that caused my heart to skip a beat. She then ran over to and looked like she was about to jump into a clinging hug, but stopped just before , looking downwards.
"I heard you are injured again. Is it serious?" She asked, showing a lot of restraint not to hug . "I will be fine, a hug won't kill , co here!" I encouraged. Janine's face lit up as she jumped and wrapped her legs around my waist while hugging tightly.
Janine closed her eyes and scrunched up her dark blue features in satisfaction. She had missed Apollo's hugs this week. They just let her forget about everything outside of the hugs proximity, sending her into a true peace.
Noticing how Janine simply lted onto my body, I chuckled, ignoring the fact she was not wearing anything underneath the t-shirt, and made my way to the couch. After sitting down, we just stayed there for a while as I stroked her back, simply enjoying each other's company.
A short ti later, I piped up and asked. "So, tell about your missions, Sophia has not been too hard on you has she?" Janine groaned, not wanting to move from my lap, but after a mont, she moved to right next to on the couch, her knees to her chest and the T-shirt now covering her entire body.
"The missions have been a cakewalk. They would be what I usually do with the scythes, so the skills transfer over and at least I have so company with my handler. I just sit around all day watching my targets. I have only had to use my weapon during one mission after all, and that was just because a crazy man ca onto my roof and began shooting at everything."
Janine began explaining all the little ins and outs considering I was genuinely interested in what she had to say. She was my best friend after all, I want to know she is doing ok. After a short while, Janine suddenly went quiet as a blush beca evident on her skin.
I felt a tension coming off of her, so I did not tease and allowed her to gather her thoughts. Taking a deep breath to steel herself, she then asked. "Apollo. You love right?" I nodded my head. "Yes of course, you an a great deal to ." Janine smiled at that, she felt a warmth inside of her chest, but pushed it down to get her words out. "Then considering you love , I want you to tell the truth, I promise no matter what you say, It will not affect our relationship in any way."
I raised my brow, curiously. "Ok..." I said, stretched out, wondering where she was going with this. Janine took a deep breath and looked squarely in the eyes. "Apollo, theoretically speaking, would it be possible to you to alter my geno so my Sepiidan mothers reproductive drive is the one I follow?"
"Janine..." I muttered, before she stood up and yelled. "We are best friends! We love each other! We both think the other is hot and again, we both love one another. We should be together! It is stupid that I cannot find you desirable without copious amounts of alcohol. If you can change the way my biology works, I want you to do it!" She then ran at and hugged once more. "It is not fair!" she sobbed as tears began running down her face.
I felt a gut-wrenching guilt take over as she began crying. "Janine listen, while I do think its possible to do that, I won't." Janine looked up at and took a sharp breath to protest, but I continued.
"While I do care for you a great deal, it is that exact reason why I won't perform on you. Look, during my trip to Ecunopolis 1, I t another Sepiida who once alone with , literally got on her knees and began begging desperately to make her my wife. I could never change your entire personality like that. The woman said my genes literally turned her body into a living pyre of emotional desire to mate. I could not change you in such a way. You are my best friend, you are a warrior. I can't in good conscience do that to you."
Janine sniffled for a short while, before looking up at with large wet eyes and a pure smile. She then reached up and rubbed my face. "*Sigh* Such a pretty face. OK Apollo, I understand. For now we will continue our special closeness. Besides, I love being your best friend. I would never ask you to do sothing that would jeopardise that."

She then proceeded to wipe her eyes on her shirt before taking a long breath. "I could do with a bottle of whiskey, Apollo you want one?" She asked, returning to the status quo. I smiled, truly glad she took my stance on the subject that just transpired well. "Sure, sounds good."
Janine walked back with two rather expensive bottles of whiskey in her hands and passed one over to . We chatted idly for a short ti before with a cheeky smile on her lips she asked.
"So, you are going back to your teacher to heal yourself, correct? I wonder what will occur first between the two of you? Sex or healing? From what you have told about her, I would wager the forr." She said and took a large sip before focusing her entire attention towards .
I chuckled upon thinking of the scenario. "Jewel can be… Forward in her advances at tis. Though considering my injuries and how they will be further along by the ti I am back, she will probably have restraint. Though after I am cured, we will probably fuck through the planets crust."
Janine giggled, not used to speaking that crassly. "You told that Jewel was your first ti. Does Sophia know that? That being said, on the topic of love and such, who do you love the most?"
I took a sip from my bottle while trying to not out the hive with my wording. After a mont, I replied. "Everyone in my life that I love, I love equally, though in different ways. I have a lot of love to give after all."
Janine was about to scoff at how cliché that sounded, but after thinking about it for a mont, it made sense. Apollo had been with a lot of the won she knew, and he never singled out one excessively.
His sister, his bodyguard, his fiancée, Kathrine, her and a few others. All different types of affection, yet he treated everyone with a love that made them feel touched.
While Janine was thinking that, I added on. "Oh and yes, Sophia is aware of my relationship with Jewel, she is fine with it." My continuation brought Janine back into the conversation. She took a sip of her drink before laying her head on my lap and looking up at .
"Gosh you are a lucky man. So many babes and they are all fine with your other partners. It is because you are too nice to hate you know? I bet that is the actual reason." As she said that, her head nudged against sothing in my pants.
'Well that and this thing. Goodness, even If I was straight, I would be afraid to take that thing.' She thought while I just sat there silent, not correcting her with the truth of most of them being fragnts of the sa being.
I relaxed with Janine for a while longer. She had her entire bottle of whiskey before moving onto mine. It was at this point when I realised what she was trying to accomplish as a few monts ago she climbed onto my lap and began to kiss my neck.
I let her do her thing for a mont before she pulled back frustrated. "No luck?" I replied with a cheeky smile. Janine looked at and pouted. "No, your face is doing nothing for despite being hot. Looks like I need organ damaging amounts of alcohol to find you derisible."
"Gee, thanks." I said in faking being hurt by the comnt. In response, she punched my shoulder before imdiately regretting it. Noticing I did not wince, she breathed in relief before getting off my lap.
"Right, you better go before things get weird. I'm going to try and sober up before the party." She then walked off towards her bedroom, turning just before she entered and took off my T-shirt, giving a small peek with a playful look on her face before entering and shutting the door.
