《Stuck With Him: Kai Parker》4

"What are you writing?"
Immediately I slammed my diary shut and looked up at Kai, who was leaning over my shoulder with a smirk. "You have a diary?"
I rolled my eyes. "Yes I have a diary, I find it keeps me sane to write down my thoughts." I explained, putting it back in Zeke. "You should try it."
"Can I see it?" Kai asked, reaching over but I smacked his hand away.
"Do you want to die?"
"I can't die."
"We'll see about that." I mumbled, zipping up Zeke and holding him close to my chest.
"Funny." He said, joining me on the sofa and sitting close beside me.
"I know I'm hilarious." I stood up with Zeke on my back. "Come on, let's go."
"Where?" He whined. I scoffed. "Exercise it too tiring."
"I always wonder how you aren't fat. You eat so much and never exercise." I shook my head as I shoved on my shoes.
"I'm just blessed." He smirked, lifting up his shirt and exposing his six pack.
I rolled my eyes, looking away to cover my blush. Kai noticed and laughed, dropping his shirt and putting on his own shoes.
"Whatever you say." I sang, opening the door.
Kai came to my side, standing quite close beside me. "Why do you always carry that bag, Ri?"
Shrugging, I spoke. "Just because, Malachai." Kai nudged me and I nudged him back. "You should never hit a girl, Malachai." I said, while I entered a bar
Kai followed me inside. "Who says you're a girl?" He grinned. I gasped, but smiled.
"Hurtful, Malachai." I replied, walking around the place. "Have you ever been here?" He gave me an 'are you serious?' look and I nodded. "I'll take that as a yes." I added, walking towards the bar.
I poured myself a glass of water. "Want anything?" I offered Kai, he sat down at the bar. He shook his head. "That's good, I wasn't gonna make you anything."
Kai laughed. "That's because you don't know how, Ri." He said, leaning over the counter so his face was closer to mine.
I leaned in also, breaking the space between us. "Are you challenging me, Malachai?"
He rose a brow, smirking. "I dunno am I, Ri?"
I narrowed my eyes and smiled. "I think you are."
"Okay then."
"What the rules?"
"If I win, I want to see you in something of my choice and you have to wear the rest of the day." He said and I knew that was risky. "If you win, you get an extra two nights in the master bedroom."
I pondered for a moment but caved in. "Deal." We shook hands. "So I'll ask again, what do you want?"
"I'll have a simple margarita." He shrugged, resting his head on his hands.

I nodded, having no clue how to make that but spun round to the many bottles. I hesitated, not knowing which one to choose. Eventually, I took a load of bottles and mixed them together.
"There you're go." I handed him the drink which didn't seem appealing or in any way correct.
Kai cringed, glancing at the drink than me. "This is a margarita?"
"A Riley special." I chuckled, though that drink didn't look consumable.
"Why don't you try it then Ri?" Kai asked, sliding the drink to me. I shook my head, pushing it back to him.
"No, Kai it's your drink."
"Ri, I insist."
Taking a deep breath, I held the cup bringing it to my lips. I shut my eyes as I took as sip, gagging at the vile taste.
"So, does it taste good?" Kai asked. I nodded but hadn't swallowed yet. "Ri, you forgot the most important thing." I raised my eyebrows and hummed, since my mouth had the concoction inside. "The lime or lemon that's supposed to be on the cup."
My body couldn't take it anymore, I spluttered that nasty drink onto the floor. I spat it all out, gagging at the revolting taste. "You win." I surrendered, waving a napkin and he laughed.
Kai kept his smirk the whole walk to the clothes store and I just scowled. "You knew I'd lose didn't you?"
"I did." He confessed with a proud look. "Especially since most of the ingredients weren't there."
"You're such a prick." I punched him while we went inside the shop. He winked.
Kai said nothing but lead me through the asides, flickering through the clothes on the rack. I huffed. "Do I have to do this?"
He looked at me. "Yep."
I cursed under my breath, and peered through the clothes as well while he chose my outfit. "This is so me, Malachai." I laughed, he looked at me and laughed seeing me try on a big sombrero. "I'm pretty sure this was made for me."
Kai shook his head, but laughed. I smiled and took off the hat, chucking it elsewhere. "What about this Ri?" I glanced over to him and cringed at the dress his hands.
It was a pink, with a light pink tutu and a floral patterned top. No straps and I just looked at him.
Shaking my head, I fake gagged. "Don't be so mean to me." My eyes averted and I found another dress and gave him a fake smile. "But what about this."
It was a wedding dress, in a mermaid design which I despised. "Now this is better." I added sarcastically.
Kai laughed putting the dress in his hands away. "I think you should try it on, Ri."
I walked over to a mirror and put the dress against my body, it was about five sizes too big. I gave Kai a look. "I think its a little big. Don't you Malachai?"

He continued to laugh. "No it's a perfect fit."
I gasped. "That's probably the nicest thing you've ever said to me." I wiped away my fake tears.
"You're welcome, Ri." I rolled my eyes but laughed, throwing away the ugly dress.
++++
I quickly bounced my leg up and down with frustration as I waited until for Ri. I don't know what was taking her so long to change in the outfit I picked for her.
I could've easily taken advantage of my win and made her wear something as little as a bra and thong. Yet, knowing that Riley would never agree and would properly murder me (literally) I chose something that covered her body but still showed it off.
I drummed my fingers against my thigh, glancing down at my hand. I huffed. "Come on Ri!" I called.
"I'm trying!" She snapped back and I chuckled. Riley was the first person, I tolerate and didn't necessarily want to kill. She was different but also delusion, like the rest.
My mind wondered to the other day when I caught her doing magic and I smirked. I had no idea she had her own powers, even after two years together I didn't suspect a thing.
I shook my head. .
Chewing on my bottom lip, I sighed and run my hand through my hair. I needed a way to catch her out using her magic to give me an opportunity to siphon. Yet, apart of me didn't want her dead instead I wanted her alive
"Okay, I'm done." Her voice sent me away from my thoughts. I lifted my head up and saw her poke her head through the curtain.
I rolled my eyes. "Bout time."
She gave me a glare. "I swear to God if you laugh at me, Malachai I will bin your Pork Grinds."
I hated when she called by full name it just reminded me about my past but putting on a fake grin I spoke. "I would never, Ri."
She scoffed, stepping out of the changing rooms and showing me her outfit.
My eyes widened and I brought my lip between my teeth, shifting slightly in the seat. I realised, knowing that my want for her had increased massively.
But who could blame me? After spending years alone, I need someone to help me relieve my sexual frustration. Not to mention, Riley was insanely hot.
"You look..." I paused, eyeing her up and down. "Sexy."
A blushed came on her face but she made it disappear and grinned. Riley spun around and nodded. "I know, I do." She looked at herself in the mirror then me. "You actually did a good job Malachai."
I rolled my eyes but still was annoyed with the fact I was falling hard for her.
++++
I gasped, sitting up straight opening my eyes as I did. "Another vision?" Kai guessed, eating jam with his fingers.
"Yep." I answered, resting my head in my hands. I didn't even remember lying on the sofa. Raising a brow, I looked around to try and fix my memory.
"You passed out at the table, so I put you on the sofa." Kai explained, as if he was reading my mind. I nodded and thanked him. "You were out for about ten minutes." My eyes widened in shock.
"Oh my God." I muttered, rubbing my eyes. Standing up, I went to the cupboard and took out a packet of biscuits.
I sat down at the table, across from Kai and began to eat the biscuits. "Have you ever tried escaping?"
Kai nodded. "When I first arrived, but I know realised I can't because I don't have everything needed."
"What do you need?"
"Its not important, Ri."
"Alright." I said, dropping the subject.
After a while of talking, we both decided to call it night since we spent the entire day walking around and 'buying' stuff.
I yawned. "Hallelujah." I muttered, taking off the my skirt and mesh shirt and throwing them somewhere in the room. I went in the bathroom and began brushing my teeth.
I shivered, only in my bra and underwear and left the bathroom while brushing my teeth to get my pyjamas.
"Kai!" I screeched, when I spotted Kai sitting on my bed. His eyes widened at me and I felt my face go bright red.
"Wow." He smirked, staring up and down my body. I ran back into the bathroom, spitting out the toothpaste in the sink before putting my toothbrush away.
I blushed with embarrassment while I rested against the door. "Ri." Kai called, knocking on the door. "Ri, come out."
"Go away." I replied, hiding my face with my hands.
"Ri." The door opened, despite me leaning against it, and Kai held out something. I moved away and saw it was my pyjama top, I swiped the top from him.
"Thanks." I mumbled, putting on the shirt before leaving the bathroom. "Now please leave my room, before I slap you."
Kai grinned, taking a step closer to me so I was trapped between him and the wall. "Why do you want me to leave?"
"Because I need to sleep."
"Why don't I sleep with you?"
"Why don't I punch your face?"
"You're feisty."
"You're annoying."
"You're cute."
"Don't call me cute."
"You're cute when you're mad."
"Don't call me-"
I was interrupted by Kai kissing me!
Yet only seconds later I began to kiss him back, wrapping my arms around his neck. Kai pinned me against the wall, lifting my leg around his waist and I hummed, toying with the ends of his hair.
After a while, Kai pulled away and looked shocked. I painted as he did, moving himself away me before leaving the room in silence.
I stood in my spot, dumbfounded with my fingers touching my swollen lips. "What just happened?"

Stories Of Indlu
“… to grow, for opportunity, for adventure, to be free. Join the colony ship Nao Vittoria. Be the first to live amongst the stars.” It was obvious from the literature that the NextStar corporation wanted the young, the adventurous and the brilliant. So why were the super rich fighting over seats? Why were AI’s trying to stow away? Did this signify a premature end to human/AI civilisation? Why had some questions directed to NextStar been aggressively sidelined? Why did the colonist inflight entertainment trial produce fatalities? In fact, why colonists at all? Those and many other questions, however, boiled down to a single central question. Why was the world’s most advanced AI dumped with a hundred year babysitting job for 50 million people speeding towards an uninhabitable planet? It made such little sense. The only sure way to get answers, catch a ride on the Nao Vittoria and play the inflight entertainment game, Pax Domini. I joined, and this is my story. Well, I feature. OK, I’m more of a spectator. Actually, I’m completely irrelevant I was just there. I’m only the storyteller. But what a story to tell. --------- Hi All, Content will be published weekly usually Saturday and typical posts will be 25oo to 4ooo words per post. Though for some reason the Royal Road word count does not include the content of tables so some posts may not appear to meet this criteria. Currently I have written sufficient unedited content to keep this schedule for the next 12 months (half way through the first story arc). My current productivity would indicate that I can maintain this schedule for well into the second story arch. This also allows for the additional content that will be posed exclusively on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/StoriesOfIndlu). This additional content follows minor characters, peripheral events, maps and other content that does not take away from the main story. I would love to accelerate the post schedule but to meet this I need the assistance of more beta readers than I currently have. So please let me know if you are interested. - Andy ©2022 Andy Leauter.
