Chapter 6: CHAPTER 6
We arrived at the rocky area where I had hidden my boat, and I carefully navigated the car towards the back, where the boat was docked. The kids were ecstatic at the sight of the boat, and Rei had a look of relief on her face as we got out of the car. We walked towards the boat, and I helped them climb aboard before letting them sit down on the deck. I opened the cooler and handed them each a Mars bar and a bottle of water. They looked grateful for the small but much-needed treat after the intense fight earlier.
The sun was setting, and the sky was ablaze with orange and pink hues. Rei looked like she had finally gotten the chance to relax for a bit. Ayato and Miya were running around the deck playfully, laughing and playing as if they could finally be kids again. Meanwhile, I went back and forth from the car to the boat, carrying bags of food, bottles of water, and medical supplies. I transferred them onto the boat's storage compartment, making sure we had enough supplies to last us for a while.
About half an hour passed before Rei noticed I had been moving to and from the boat and eventually came to give me a hand.
"Ah, you don't need to," I said, feeling guilty for making her work.
"No, it's fine, I want to. You've helped us a lot," Rei replied, smiling at me.
We worked together, and it made the task much easier. As we finished loading the last of the supplies, we sat down on the deck and looked out at the beautiful sunset. For a moment, it felt like everything was going to be okay. I nodded in agreement as Rei started to help me transfer the supplies onto the boat. It was a relief to have another pair of hands to help. We worked in silence for a while until Rei spoke up.
"Do you really think we can survive out here?" she asked, sounding unsure.
I paused for a moment, taking in her words. It was a fair question. We had just gone through a harrowing experience and the world as we knew it had ended.
"I think we can," I replied finally. "We have each other and we have resources. It won't be easy, but I believe we can make it."
Rei nodded, but I could see the worry etched on her face. I knew that this was just the beginning of our journey, and that there would be many more challenges ahead.We finished loading up the boat and I started to untie it from the rocks. As we pulled away from the shore, I could see the sun setting over the horizon. It was a beautiful sight, but also a reminder that we had to keep moving forward.
As we navigated through the dark waters, I couldn't help but think about what lay ahead. We had food, water, and medical supplies, but we would need to find a safe place to settle down eventually. After anchoring the boat, I took a moment to take a deep breath of the salty sea air, feeling a sense of relief that we had made it this far. I carefully made my way towards the deck, trying not to make too much noise and wake Ayato and Miya who were already fast asleep. Rei was in the cabin, tucking the kids in for the night. I could hear her softly humming a tune, and it made me smile. It was a peaceful moment in the midst of all the chaos we had been through. Once Rei finished tucking the kids in, she made her way to the deck. We exchanged a small smile, acknowledging the quiet moment between us. I felt grateful for her presence, and the kids' too. It was nice to have companions in this world, especially after spending so much time alone.
We got to work, finishing transferring all the supplies we had collected throughout the day onto the boat and organizing them. The weight of the bags felt heavy in my arms, but the thought of having enough provisions to last us for a while kept me going. Finally, after what felt like hours, we finished transferring everything onto the boat. It was now pitch black outside, but the stars were out, and the sky was clear. It was a breath-taking sight, and for a moment, we just stood there in silence, taking it all in.
Rei broke the silence, asking if I wanted to join her for a drink. I nodded, grateful for the company. We sat on the edge of the deck, with a bottle of soju between us, talking softly about our experiences and how we managed to make it this far. It was a moment of peace and reflection, something we both needed after such a long day. As we stood on the deck, admiring the beauty of the clear night sky, I couldn't help but feel grateful for this moment of peace amidst the chaos we had been through. Rei and I shared the bottle of soju, passing it back and forth as we talked about our experiences since the outbreak.
Rei hesitated for a moment, staring out into the dark expanse of the ocean. "I've been training in martial arts since I was a kid," she finally said. "Bojutsu and Taekwondo were my specialties. I managed to become a national competitor in both before... well, before everything went to hell."
She trailed off, lost in thought for a moment. "I lost so many friends to the virus," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "It was like... like the world was ending, you know? And then it did. I was with Ayato and Miya at home when it started. Our dad came home from work, and he was already infected. He worked as a paramedic, so it was easy for him to get bitten."
Haito listened in horror as Rei continued her story. "My mom tried to hold him down, even though she was being torn apart," Rei said, her voice shaking. "I had to grab Ayato and Miya and run. We locked ourselves in my room for two days, but eventually... eventually we had to go out for food."
Haito could see the pain etched into Rei's features as she spoke, and he felt a pang of sympathy for her. "I'm sorry you had to go through all that," he said softly.
Rei shrugged, trying to hide her emotions. "It's fine," she said, her voice cold. "I've had to be strong for Ayato and Miya. I can't let them see me break down."
Haito nodded, understanding. "I get it," he said. "I've been on my own for a while now, and... well, it gets lonely. That's why I helped you guys. I thought maybe we could help each other survive."
Rei's eyes flicked over to Haito, searching his face for any sign of deceit. "Don't get me wrong," she said, her tone sharp. "I don't trust you either. But for now... I guess we're in this together."
Rei took a deep breath and continued her story. "We eventually came across a group of survivors, but it didn't take long for things to turn sour. The group's leader was power-hungry and had no regard for anyone else's safety. He was willing to do whatever it took to survive, even if it meant sacrificing others."
Rei's expression darkened as she recounted the horrific events that led to their escape from the group. "I knew we had to leave, even if it meant going back out on our own. I couldn't let Ayato and Miya be exposed to that kind of danger."
We were both heavily influenced by the alcohol. It was normal for both of us to share our experiences without a second thought and I understood why Rei was so cautious. I looked at Rei directly in the eyes. "I wont do anything, I didn't need to help you, I was just lonely in this world" I began to recall and share my past with Rei, telling her about how I remembered nothing before the BioMed facility..
As I finished my story, Rei's eyes widened in shock although finding it hard to believe, she eventually trusted me. "That's insane," she breathed. "I had no idea that the outbreak was caused by government experiments. I always thought it was some sort of virus or disease that had gotten out of control."
I nodded solemnly. "It's crazy what people will do in the name of progress," he said. "It technically is a virus.. just one that was accidentally created."
After hours of sharing their personal experiences, the effects of the alcohol and exhaustion started to take hold of us. We decided it was time to call it a night and headed to the cabin to get some rest. Rei checked on Ayato and Miya, ensuring they were sound asleep and safe in the boat's cabin. I helped Rei tuck the kids in, feeling a sense of responsibility towards them before whispering goodnight to them before they headed to our own cabin, both feeling a mix of emotions.
Despite the bleakness of the world they lived in, we were grateful for each other's company. However, we also knew we had to remain cautious of each other. As they entered the cabin, I was surprised to see that the bottom bunk was larger than expected, enough to fit two people, I knew this having been on the boat before but the alcohol made it surprising. I took the bottom bunk while Rei sat with me, both of us feeling awkward after sharing so much about our pasts. I turned to look at Rei and found her staring back at me.
As I sat there, I could feel the tension between us. The effects of the alcohol seemed to amplify every sensation, making things feel more intense. I could see the moon's reflection on Rei's face, and I wondered what she was thinking. I knew we had to be careful with each other, but there was an undeniable connection between us.
The warmth of the alcohol made me feel fuzzy and warm inside. I sensed that Rei was feeling the same way. We sat there in silence, feeling each other's presence. I realized that I was enjoying the moment, even though I knew I should be careful. I was glad that I could open to someone about my past, someone who understood what I had been through.
I turned to look at Rei and she pulled in for a kiss, holding me by the neck. I was instantly drawn in, I don't know whether this was wrong, but it felt so right and I felt a deep connection with her, I embraced her back, putting my arms around her waist, both of us kissing passionately, I pulled Rei towards my bed and pushed her down onto it, then rolled over on top of her as she lay there, our lips still locked together. I slowly began moving downwards, making sure to avoid any contact with her breasts; instead, I moved lower, moving my hands from her waist up to cup her cheeks, kissing her softly before continuing south.
I kissed her collarbone and neck and moved down to her shoulders, running my hands along her arms until I reached her bra strap, undoing it and letting her bra fall off her shoulders. Her chest rose up proudly and my eyes were immediately drawn to her breasts, a pair of firm breasts that had been hidden under her shirt, now free and waiting to be touched. I removed her shirt from her shoulders, taking care not to let it fall back into place when I was done. She wore a black bra underneath which I quickly unhooked and threw aside. We kissed before she removed my shirt as well. The night was young despite having talked for so long earlier. Rei removing my cargos, we made love throughout the night, each time building on the last, our bodies responding perfectly to one another's desires.
