“You do?” Melody questioned.
“Well yeah, I mean when we are together it’s like a volcano igniting and exploding. This has to be more than just sex.” He explained.
“Yes, I thought the same thing too.” She admitted.
“So what do you say?” He asked.
“Oh yes, I’ll marry you, and I love you too Cassius. I feel safe around you, like no one could ever harm me.” Melody scraped her nails on his back and he thrust into her again.
She was lost in thought as he brought her body to another climax.
Once they were done it was time to clean though. They both began to fix the place up. It was possible that they could be stuck here the rest of their lives, or at least for a few years.
Along the trip Cassius had explained to Melody more in depth about how their justice system worked. It had made her shiver with fear to think of how many innocent people they may have killed in the past.
Soon enough the house was coming together.
“Overall it’s in rather good shape.” Cassius announced after he came in from inspecting the outside of the house closer.
“Well that’s good.” Melody smiled at him. “Were you kidding when you asked me to marry you earlier?” She asked.
“Of course not, why would I do that.” He answered.
“I don’t know. Well on Earth men talk and say things they don’t mean. You know they promise women things so they get sex.” She explained.
“Wow, your species seems a bit dishonest. Is that what your ex-boyfriend did to you? Didn’t you tell me his name was Jay? Another thing are you dishonest?” He asked, his face showing some worry.
“No I’m what you would call one of the good ones. I’m so honest sometimes people take me as being rude. Yes Jay did the whole dishonest thing to me. But I would rather not talk about him anymore.” She laughed.
“I’d rather have you honest.” He admitted.
There was a knock on the door, they looked at each other. No one knew they were here, except for the guy who drove them here. However, why would he be back out here?
Cassius approached a window slowly and looked out front. He turned towards her, “I don’t know who it is. He doesn’t have a uniform on though.”
She shook her head, ready to help defend him if it came to it. “Be ready to run if I tell you.” Cassius told her.
“No way, I’m standing by you.” She stated.
He smiled at her. “Alright, but I really don’t know if this is bad news, or nothing big.”
“Go ahead.” She stood by his side and he answered the door.
“Yes can I help you?” Cassius asked the blue man standing at the door.
“Wow, Brakley wasn’t lying; there are really new people on the planet!” The man smiled and pushed his hand towards Cassius. “I’m Jureal; I’ve lived on Zeron for around ten years now. You are the first new people I’ve seen come here. I was just wondering if you needed anything.”
“Oh it’s nice to meet you Jureal. I’m Cassius and this is Melody.”
Jureal looked from one to the other. “Hmm, interspecies couple are you? Interesting, I would never have imagined that on Zeron!” He laughed.
“Yeah we wanted to be away from the bustle of it all. You know live a very quiet life.” Cassius said.
“Oh you’ll have that here on Zeron. Overall, there may be around 100 of us here. All of us are spread out quite a bit. So you should be able to enjoy your peace and quiet here. Perhaps I’ll contact the others and we can have a little party to greet you one day.” Jureal said.
“Sure that sounds nice. But can you give us a bit to fix up the place, and we can have it here?” Melody said, shaking Jureal’s hand.
“That’s not a problem. Most people who live on Zeron don’t like to travel much anyway.” He laughed heartily.
Cassius and Melody looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders.
“Well I just wanted to stop by and welcome you to the planet. When you get the phone installed here’s my number. Just let me know if you need anything. I’m one of your closest neighbors.” Jureal explained.
“Oh how far away are you?” Melody asked.
“About four hours or so, with the speed travel options. But if you want to go the slower way it would take me a few days. So not very close at all! I just happened to be in the area to visit the shop.” Jureal explained.
“Well thanks for stopping by. We’ll let you know when we get our phone in and are ready for a party!” Cassius said.
“Yeah it’s always nice to see someone new comer to Zeron. Hey did anyone ever tell you, you look like that gladiator dude a bit. Well you’re not near as big as he looks on the channel though.” Jureal laughed as he left.
Melody looked at Cassius, “Do you think he knows?” Her nerves felt frayed at the thought of Jureal knowing Cassius real identity.
“I don’t know. We’ll be careful and watch to see if we get a lot of visitors or not. I’ll set up an alarm system outside. That way if they do come for us we can hopefully get out quickly.” Cassius said.
