Kaleb and Fiske were going clubbing tonight, but in K2323 and Julia's suite, the two happily looked up at the ceiling together, hand in hand as they laid there in the master suite bedroom. The scene here was a lot more peaceful than next door at the Club B7R. It was... Quiet.
"I can't believe you passed up the chance to join the party," Julia noted, smiling as she leaned onto her side, her eyes peering down into K2323's.
She was clad in simply a blue, cotton T-Shirt and lace panties. K2323 was in a similar state of undress, wearing a plain white shirt and some boxers. He looked his wife in the eyes, listening to her surprise. He smiled. Even after centuries of being apart, she knew him. She knew him all too well.
"I think we oughta let the young folks have the night."
"So I'm old, is that it?" Julia replied mockingly.
"Ancient," K2323 replied, smiling.
She grabbed a pillow and, in a mock look of disgust, playfully hit him with it. He smiled, grabbing her and lifting her up into the air before lowering her back down, calmly and slowly now, towards him. The two embraced in a long kiss. They could feel each other's body heat, feel the passion in their kiss.
As their kiss broke, Julia laid her head softly on K2323's chest. K2323 gently massaged her back, as they calmly just enjoyed each other's touch. It had been so long since they simply enjoyed each other's embrace... So long since they just were together.
"I love you, you know," K2323 said, breaking the silence, "And I'm never going to let you go again."
"Don't worry," Julia replied, "I'm not leaving."
She closed her eyes, moaning at the gentle, innocent rub of K2323's hand, the feeling that shuttered through her entire body. She reached up once more, her hand gently rubbing the stubble on K2323's neck. She smiled, reaching down to kiss him briefly before rubbing his stubble once more.
"You need to shave."
"Give me some slack," K2323 replied, smiling, "I haven't had to impress a woman in years."
He sadly glanced at the ground. The fact was, he had been somewhat of a... Pervert over the last few years. He had thought that Julia was dead, after all. He had tried so hard to fill the void... To feel the love he had lost once more.
As if he reading his mind, Julia smiled, once more kissing K2323 on the lips.
"It's okay," she said, "You know that, right? Whatever's happened... It's happened. What matters now is what is ahead."
"I love you so much," was all K2323 could say.
"I know," Julia replied playfully.
The sound of chimes echoed throughout the suite, as Julia toppled back over, off of K2323, who stood up and grabbed his jeans off the floor. He stretched, cracking his back and arms as he picked up a few credits off the nightstand where his wallet was gently laying. He made his way to the door that connected the suite's bedroom to the living room. As he walked across the bedroom, Julia looked up at him, a curious look on her face.
"Hope you don't mind pizza," he said simply.
"I haven't had pizza in over a thousand years," she replied, "It sounds wonderful."
He smiled, disappearing into the living room. He came back a few moments later with the box of pizza in his hand, crawling into bed beside his love, opening the box up to reveal a fresh, hot, authentic pizza, topped with the freshest of ingredients. It was an interesting thing, pizza. It was one thing that almost every culture seemed to develop, independently, even having never observed other cultures.
As the two enjoyed their dinner together, K2323 reached for the remote, turning on the HoloVision. Flipping through ClearGalaxy's documentary on Mark Tepper, he paused on the Galactic Times News Channel's report on the happenings of Club B7R.
"And, as you can see," the reporter was saying, just outside the long line into the club, "This club is quite the exclusive party, with a good portion of those trying to get in being kicked out rather quickly. We head now to Sasha Arainea, who is inside with more."
The scene now switched to a young reporter inside the club itself, the dance floor in clear site behind her.
"Thank you, Paul. Now, as you can all see, this club is quite the scene tonight. Right now, DJ CrazyMage can be seen in his booth, but we are told that several live performances will occur throughout the night, and at least two more DJ's are expected to come in as well. What a great way to kick off the opening night of this exciting conference."
K2323 smiled and continued flipping through the channels.
"They're gonna be so hungover tomorrow," Julia commented as a sheepish grin broke out on their faces.
"That was us once... Of course, Eta City didn't have any clubs that big."
"We sure knew how to party, though," Julia replied, smiling in thought.
"Who ever would have known we'd make it this far?" K2323 asked, smiling as he remembered back.
"Say, after this, what do you say to a shower?" Julia asked, changing the topic now.
"Sounds great."
It was a love that spanned centuries, a love that was genuine and true. They had gone through hell, and they had gone through Heaven. They were together. They were together in love... And love conquers all.
