And then,… it was delicious.  It took a moment for Lexx to realize that Chel was actually hugging him and he wasn't imagining it.  He stiffened up momentarily, then relaxed. Chel didn't really know why she did it, other than the obvious.  "You look like you need this."  She giggled nervously.  He was just standing there, looking like something was bothering him.  As much as he hated being touched,.. it just looked like he 'needed' it. Lexx leaned forward quickly, his resolve shattering all around him.  She was warm and soft in his arms, welcoming,… and then he opened his mouth. "I need you." Chel immediately felt cold.  She had intended it as a harmless hug and now Lexx was probably misreading her intention.  It had been a stupid thing for her to do.  Who knows what a hug might mean wherever he grew up.  "Uh,…" "That came out wrong!"  Lexx recoiled violently, swinging his wings up and out.  He hadn't meant to say it.  The words hadn't even been in his mind.  They just appeared out of nowhere.

  1. Lexx’s foot spends so much time in his mouth that I wonder how he ever gets rid of the taste of his boots…

    1. only this time it wasnt one foot but both

      1. he must be surprisingly flexible…

  2. And welcome back awkwardness. But then again, that’s what feelings do to us, isn’t it? They make us do the ‘right’ thing, only to recoil into the exactly opposite direction. Though to be honest, I didn’t take either of them for a teenager…

    1. Chel is 19, Lexx is about 21-22. Close enough (especially as Lexx is rather immature when it comes to feelings and emotions)

  3. My mom keeps on wondering what Ive been laughing at…for the past twelve minutes…
