The Following Morning
Ashley woke up, finding out that she had slept with Michael. She blushed, main reason being that she's 4 years younger than him. She put her head on his chest, wanting to go back to sleep...until she sensed the guards coming.
'Oh no...' she thought.
She tapped Michael on the shoulder.
"Mike? Mike..." she сказал(-а) in a whisper.
Michael didn't wake up so she moved away and decided to go into his cell and put pillows and a blanket on his bed. (Me: luckily the pillows were black!) She then went back into her cell and saw that Michael was still asleep! She slapped her forehead and walked up to him and shook him.
"Mike...Michael..."
He still didn't wake up. She decided to try another name.
"Captain EO! Wake your butt up!" She muttered rather loud.
Michael shot up and was a bit panicked. "What?! What's going on?" He asked.
He looked around and saw Ashley standing by the bed. Then, he realized what she сказал(-а) to get him awake.
"Did Ты call me 'Captain EO'?"
"Yes, I did, Michael. Since Ты didn't respond to 'Mike' или 'Michael'."
"Sorry, Ash. I was just tired. I haven't been able to sleep since I had been sent on this mission."
Michael sat up and Ashley sat down Далее to him.
"I understand, Michael. For now, if Ты need rest, go to your cell. Okay?"
Soon, the guards came into the cell and saw her with Michael. She looked up and was shocked and scared. She tried to explain, but one of the guards raised his hand for her to stop talking.
"There's no need to explain. We can see that Ты two know each other. The Queen has suggested him to be in the cell with you." He said.
Ashley stared in shock and said, "R-Really? I thought-"
"Well, she actually сказал(-а) for us to combine your cells, so we're here to remove the door that connects them." The other guard сказал(-а) as he and his partner headed to the door.
They took out their tools and started removing the door. Once the door was removed, the guards left. Ashley and Michael could see each other еще often now. No door to go through. They were relieved because they thought one of them was moving to another cell.
"They are allowing us to see each other?" Michael asked.
"I guess so...what is my sister on?" Ashley said.
"Your...sister? The Queen is your sister??"
"Yeah...well...here's the story."
Ashley told Michael the whole story about her and her sister that is now the queen. She explained that she was originally the Queen of this planet and her sister was jealous of her. Her sister was the oldest, yet Ashley was the queen.
After 5 минуты Of Explaining
Michael was shocked. He couldn't believe it.
'Ashley...the original Queen of this planet?!' He thought.
"That's rather shocking, Ash. I can't believe Ты were the original queen. That must have been a huge responsibility, huh?" He asked.
"Yeah, it was. My mom trusted me being queen. I feel like I let her down." Ashley said.
Michael placed his hand on вверх of her hand and said, "You didn't let her down."
"Yes I did, Mike...I couldn't take the responsibility anymore. I wanted to have fun and be a captain instead of a queen."
"Being a captain has responsibilities, too. Having to complete the mission, Сообщить back, keep the team together and train. It’s not like there's much difference between being a captain and being a queen."
"But being a captain, Ты get to make your missions fun. Being a queen, Ты can't. I didn't like being Queen at all. It was utter torture for me."
"More than the 100 years of torture punishment?"
"Oh yeah, definitely еще than that."
They laughed at each other. They were having fun, like how she wanted to have fun. Michael was looking to the now 'no door' doorway to his cell and Ashley wanted to do something. She pushed Michael off the постель, кровати and he fell.
"Ow! Hey! That's not fair, Ash."
Ashley stuck her tongue out at him. Ashley stood up and held out her hand and he grabbed it and stood up, tackling her onto her bed. Michael started wrestling with her and she and him rolled off the bed. Michael, after 3 минуты of wrestling, started tickling her. She started laughing. She was extremely ticklish.
"M-Michael! Q-Q-Quit it! Ahahahaha!" She said.
Michael stopped tickling her, getting his laugh out of it. She stood up and so did Michael.
"You are so mean, Mike. Ты know I'm ticklish."
"I know. I know."
Michael had gotten an idea. Since he figured out she liked him the way he liked her (but never told her), he had to bring it up.
"Ash...do Ты like me?"
When Ashley heard him ask that, she blushed.
"W-Well...uh.........yeah, I do. I've liked Ты since we first met.
"Really? Well, Ash...I've liked you, too, since we first met as well."
"Really? I was afraid Ты didn't like me back. That's why I didn't tell you."
"Same!"
Ashley was in shock. She found out that Michael liked her, too, and still likes her. She was amazed and she still liked him, too. Suddenly, she felt weak at her ankle and fell. Michael caught her before she hit the floor. She looked at him.
"Thank you, Mike."
Michael smiled. "Not a problem, Ash."
Michael helped her onto the постель, кровати and checked her ankle.
"It seems to be sprained, Ash. Stay right here. I'll go get the ice pack I brought with me."
Ashley nodded and waited while Michael grabbed the ice pack. He came back into the room and placed it on her ankle and tied a piece of rope to keep it in place.
"There Ты go, Ash. You'll have to keep the ice pack on for a bit."
"Thank you, Mike. You're so sweet."
Michael smiled and sat Далее to her. He put his arm around Ashley's shoulder and pulled her close to him. She looked at him and he looked at her. He leaned in and kissed her. She was shocked, but closed her eyes and kissed back. They released the Kiss and for that day, they played games and watched tv (Me: yes, this planet has cable and tv) in her cell.
