Sally and I arrived in Damaer a few hours ago, and we're resting in an Inn room now. I'm currently enjoying a massage. My lovely girlfriend has decided to show some support to my mental exhaustion by helping my body relax.
We're both currently in our underwear, and her hands are working wonders on my back. I don't have back issues, and I'm not sore from flying. But it feels damn good to have the muscles in my back worked on.
"Right there..."
My favorite spots she's getting are my shoulder blades and spine. I've agreed to give her a massage too after she's done with mine.
But at this rate, I might fall asleep from how relaxing it is. A few grateful moans escape my mouth as she works more pressure into my back muscles, and all my mental exhaustion is being treated with it. It makes sense that getting a back massage would help.
The back is considered by many where people put all their stress. I can't speak for spiritual meaning or significance cause I'm not knowledgeable about that.
What I can say is I've manifested my own stress in a variety of ways, and placing them on my shoulders and back is one way I've done it.
"You know, I don't need a massage right after you... You can fall asleep if you want... You work so hard all the time, and I'd love it if you fell asleep..."
As tempted as I am to disagree and give her one anyway, I don't think I can. Not now. I'm too relaxed and tired. It sucks cause I want to help Sally relax. She deserves it. But this is just too damn good to pass up.
Not responding is how I decide to handle it, and she chuckles after a couple of seconds, getting the meaning behind my silence.
"I'll make sure I get every inch of your body. From your reaction, you've never had a massage done on you. Not when you're so tired."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe's right about that. My mental exhaustion has proved to be one of the biggest complaints in my own criticisms of myself. I never find a good balance. I just keep going until I can't anymore.
And that's now a good habit to have. I've been thinking of ways to fix it, but nothing I've thought of so far has helped any.
"I appreciate this more than I can express at the moment... If I had the energy, I'd make sure you got some relief with a massage too... But my mind has turned my body to jelly..."
My mental exhaustion, when at extreme peaks, projects onto my body. While it's not truly tired, I can feel that same tired feeling from it. It's a weird state that I didn't experience in either of my lives and only happens after extremely long flights.
"Hmm... I bet you would... Knowing you, your hands would first start in the sorest areas of my body... Then after a while, you'd move to places that aren't sore... Places that are only touched during our fuck sessions..."
She leans forward and whispers into my ears. I'm lying on my stomach, and I'm glad I made sure to lay in a comfortable position in case I did end up getting a little horny.
Sally has slowly started to develop a sense of dirty talk when she's in the mood. I noticed the last time we had sex. It's far better than I thought it'd be, and I enjoy it quite a bit more than I'd like to admit. We've grown to the point where we can speak like that with each other.
"You're tempting me... And as tired as I am, I'd not turn the offer down if you formally give it..."
As much as I'm on the edge of sleep, I can wake from that fast and remove the scarce remains of the clothes we're already wearing. And instead of answering me, I feel her hands leave my back and the unclipping of a bra.
The desire to turn my body and see is halted as I feel her lean her entire body on mine and her nipples poke into my back.
"I'm willing to bet after a couple of rounds. We'll both be tired enough to sleep... You always wear me out with that monster between your legs..."
That's all I need to hear.

My eyes slowly flutter open, and I look around the dark room. I look toward the only source of light, and it's the moonlight coming through the window. My eyes find their way to Cera's sleeping form beside me, and his chest's gentle rise and fall.
I can't stop myself from reaching out and touching him.
He's been there since I met him... Always when I needed him, and even when I didn't think I did... Or even wanted... He's been there and without him. My life would still be hell.
The pain from yesterday's events is still fresh on my mind, but Cera has dramatically reduced what they could've been and could be right now. Having my own Father say those horrible things about me did more damage than I thought.
I don't want to admit it...
But it shattered me...
And Cera helped pick up the pieces instantly. And the endearing part to me is he doesn't even know how much he helped or what he really did by helping me the way he did.
I scoot closer to him and wrap my naked body in his, and his arm unconsciously comes and hugs me closer. His warmth always surprises me... Cera and I belong together... And one day, we'll be starting a family of our own...
But that's a long time from now.

~~~(Time: 9:04 PM)~~~
There have been reports that an Angel was seen flying in the direction I'm heading. All I can go off for now is sightings in the sky. But once Sally and Cera land, my contacts in virtually every city will be watching and looking for them.
A Father has to do what he thinks is right, and I know that going after my little girl is what I think is right. She needs to know that I love and care about her and that I'd search the world for her.
Just like she did me...
The pain and realization of my actions became even worse the more I thought about it. And that's when I knew that I really fucked up.
She went through a lot of trouble and time to find me... Searching for a Father she thought might love her. Instead, she found a bitter and cruel man that was too paranoid to understand the situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI'm not proud of that...
In fact, I don't think I'll ever stop thinking about... Not for as long as I live, and not for as long as Sally doesn't know that I love and care about her.
But my mind has been focused on Cera as of late... That's what he called himself when we met... I put a good amount of blame on him... But it is truly my fault...
"If he hadn't antagonized me like that... I wouldn't have reacted that way..."
What he said to me threw me off balance from that moment. Nothing could've gone right meeting Sally.
I can't do anything to him. But I'll make sure that Sally knows he holds some blame too. A part of me that I'll never get rid of is how vindictive I can be, and that extends to the Angel known as Slayer Zern, Angel Zern, or Cera, as he says.
