A Silent Melody

*Beep*

A Noise that almost seemed far away made itself known to Robust, calling him to the land of the living.

*Beep*

It became clearer as he tried to open his eyes, only to close them once again when he felt waves of pain wash over his battered body.

*Beep*

He let out a quite grown while slowly closing his hand's, only to feel something soft and warm in the grasp of his left one.

*Beep*

Attempt number two of opening his eyes proved to be more successful, allowing him to look down to what it could possibly be.

*Beep*

There, half sitting in a chair, while resting her upper half on the hospital bed and holding his hand as she slept, was Sonata.

*Beep*

Her gentle breaths and cute sleeping face made Robust grin slightly while squeezing her hand tenderly.

*Beep*

This caused Sonata to stir from her slumber, then yawn while rubbing the sleep from her eyes with her free hand. In a sleepy voice she asked, "What time is it? When did I fall asleep?"

*Beep*

Robust ran his thumb over the back of her hand softly, feeling the smoothness of her skin and warmth of her person.

*Beep*

Sonata looked to the appendage caressing her, then followed the arm up to Robust's face.

*Beep*

Upon seeing the tired yet happy grin on his face, she shared the feelings while squeezing his hand in return.

*Beep*

"Hey there big fella. Good morning." She stood up from her seat, drew close to his mostly prone form and placed a small kiss on his forehead.

*Beep-Beep*

After taking her seat once more after sliding it a tad closer, she asked. "How are you feeling?"

*Beep*

Robust tried to move, only causing a grimace and groan to be emitted from the soreness that seemed to cover the whole of his body.

*Beep*

"Don't force yourself to get up. Just lay back and relax." She stated while giving a worried look to her wounded benefactor.

*Beep*

Robust did as she asked, resting his head on the pillow. He hummed questioningly with a worried look.

Sonata lifted his hand, brought it to her face, and placed a small kiss on it lovingly. "I'm just fine now that you're awake. After you passed out, the paramedics brought you to the hospital and the doctors looked you over. They said apart from some minor cuts and bruising, you should be alright. You probably only passed out because of the physical strain your body had went through was all."

Robust hummed sweetly, while he cupped her cheek with the palm of his hand.

"I'm glad you're safe." he said in a soft tone of voice.

He gently pulled her toward himself.

"And that you're here when I woke up, So I can do this now."

He then kissed her delicately on the lips, much to her surprise.

He held it for a few moments, then pulled away slightly.

After flicking the hair out of his face, he looked her in the eyes and smiled sweetly.

As he gazed deeply into her dark magenta-colored limpid pools, a soft "Awe." was heard to his right.

Robust noticed the lack of that beeping noise from when he woke up as well.

With the speed of a glacier, he turned to the source and froze when he saw three pairs of eyes looking back at him.

Pinkie Pie was seated next to the heart monitor that wasn't making a sound.

She rubbed the back of her neck and grinned sheepishly.

"Sorry. I was a little bored and was making that *beep* sound while we waited for you to wake up. Then when you did, you started to build such a good mood with Sonata, that I didn't have the chance to let you know I was here also. Again, sorry."

She stuck her tongue out and winked while bonking the side of her head in apology.

The other two in the room were Sonata's sisters, Adagio and Aria, a bit taken aback at the sight of his sweet gestures toward Sonata.

Especially after watching the video of that same person laying a beat down on a group of guys for striking their sister.

Now his eyes were uncovered and looking right at them.

Those icy blue orbs took in the silent sirens as they stared back at him.

Letting go of his newly acquired girlfriend, he brushed his bangs back down to obscure the sight.

Sonata squeezed his hand gently, bringing his attention back to her.

"It's alright. They're not mad at you or anything. In fact, they were worried about you like I was."

Robust glanced back to her sister's and they nodded.

"Yeah, we wanted to thank you for saving our sister in her time of need." Aria spoke while crossing her arms under her chest.

"And for beating the shit out of all of them for taking her. I would have done more to Micro but having him piss himself in fear is pretty good too." Adagio added.

"It's nice to know there is someone we can count on to watch out for Sonata when she's not with us." They both said with a bit of a wry smile creasing their faces.

"Oh come on. I don't get in that much trouble when I'm by myself." Sonata shot the two a glare.

"What about the time we came home to you, naked, covered from head to toe in frosting because somebody told you it was good for your skin?" Adagio ask while she pointed her index finger at the youngest siren.

"Or the time you somehow got your hair caught in the ice cream freezer at the Quick Stop and the fire department got called?" Aria mirrored Adagio's posture.

Sonata looked away and pouted. "That was a long time ago. Can't you guys just forget about that stuff?"

"That was last week." They both stated in a monotone voice.

Sonata pouted even harder. "Okay, okay, fine. Jeez."

Robust gave her a reassuring pat on her hand and hum to let her know he was on her side.

She rested her hand on his with a weak smile. "Thanks' Rob."

A knock came from the open door, causing everyone to turn and look.

"Hope I'm not interrupting anything." Nurse Redheart stepped into the room smiling all the while.

"No, it's fine. Come in." Sonata waved her in.

Nurse Redheart did so and began to check on Robust's recovery.

"Everything looks like it's alright. You didn't have a concussion thankfully, or any broken bones. Apart from the small cuts and bruising, you are a perfectly healthy young man. Do you have any concerns or questions for me?"

Robust shook his head slowly.

"Alright then. I'll go get the paperwork together for you to get discharged today then." Nurse Redheart beamed a bright smile, then turned and walked out of the room.

"Um." Sonata Looked up to Robust a tad shyly. "After you get released, do you think you could spend the night over at our place. I, I don't want to be alone tonight."

Robust blinked owlishly for a moment then looked to the nearby end table where his phone was resting.

After unlocking it, he motioned her close and took a selfie with her.

He then typed and sent a brief message to someone.

Shortly after a response pinged back.

He sent a reply, then turned the phone so Sonata could read it.

Robust: I'm going to be spending the night at my girlfriend's place tonight, alright?

Mom: Okay. Be on your best behavior. Love you, Roo. Also, bring her around the house sometime. I'd love to meet her.

Robust: Thanks. I will. Love you too, mom. See you tomorrow.

Sonata grew an excited grin while giggling.

"Roo? Is that what your mom calls you?"

He shrugged while nodding.

He loved his mother and knew that was just her pet name for him out of love.

She chuckled a few times. "Maybe I'll call you that sometimes too."

Robust only returned the laugh as he placed his phone back on the table.

One Hospital Discharge and Cab Ride Later

The lock to the Dazzlings apartment clicked open allowing the door to swing inward and grant entrance to the small group.

The two elder sirens lead the way, followed by Sonata and the injured Robust.

"Just a little bit longer and you can lay down. We'll head into my room so you can get comfortable."

Robust hummed in understanding as he rested a hand on her shoulder, aiding him in walking through the living room.

It was, for the most part, only to keep him steady rather than any actual support.

They slowly moved along to Sonata's sanctuary.

She made short work of opening the door, then flicked on the light.

Upon entering the room, Robust took in the sights of the interior.

Posters, pictures and magazine clippings of underwater scenes, tropical fish as well as reefs lined all four walls.

There were also a few fliers from the battle of the bands, a Paco's Taco's ad as well as a few snap shots of Sonata and her sisters.

He looked too and frow in a quick fashion as he was led to the queen size bed.

Once reached, Robust slowly lowered his backside to the beds edge.

Sonata aided him as best she could to rest atop of her comforter, before she patted his hand and grinned warmly.

"There we go. Now then, you just get comfy while I get ready for bed. I won't be long."

Sonata leaned in and gave a chased kiss to Robust's lips, then skipped to her dresser, retrieved a change of clothes and disappeared out the door.

Robust heard a door shut and the sound of running water shortly after, indicating where she had gone to.

Blinking at the speed at which Sonata had retreated for a moment, he turned his attention back to the surroundings.

It felt as though, if the lighting in the room was just right, it would give off the feeling that one was under water.

True the fish in the images were unmoving, but it was a serene environment.

As calm and tranquil as a wave-less, placid sea.

Robust notice that he had been zoning out for a bit too long, and so decided to do as she asked and removed his jacket.

He tossed it on a nearby chair, then moved to unbutton his shirt.

After only undoing the first few buttons however, the sound of running water ceased, the bathroom door clicked open, and Sonata returned in a whorl of steam emanating from her body as she dried her hair with a towel.

She wore a lose fitting T-shirt and silken shorts that clung to her moistened skin.

Robust sat wordlessly, staring at Sonata as if she was a goddess of the sea who had come up from the depths and graced him with her beauty.

Sonata continued to dry her hair without notice to the stunned silent figure that took up residents on her bed.

After she had removed a satisfactory amount of moisture from her silky locks, she let it fall limply on the right side of her face.

The sight of this ravishing girl who stood before him caused Robust to gulp audibly, finally catching the attention of his Venus.

Smiling warmly at her gob smacked audience, Sonata drew closer to Robust then placed a hand on his cheek.

"What? Something catch your eye babe?"

She planted another chased kiss on his lips with a grin.

The word that escaped his lips were without thought but came from the heart.

"Gorgeous."

Both hers and his eyes grew wide at his utterance while he slammed his mouth shut in surprise.

After a second or two, Sonata had a grin slowly spread across her face.

She brushed Robust's hair aside and locked her gaze with him, causing him to blush.

"For someone that is so quiet, you're quite the sweet talker."

Her smile softened as her eyes grew sultry.

She leaned in, then pressed her lips to his in a passionate kiss.

He felt her hot breath pass over the skin on his face as she let out a low contented hum.

The softness of her lips was intoxicating.

Sonata kept her lips planted on his as she slid her leg over his middle, allowing her to straddle him comfortably.

After what felt like a blissful eternity of the heavenly kissing, he felt something wet poke into his lips.

It caressed his oral opening seeking entrance to which he gladly granted.

Once admitted in, Sonata's tongue slid inside then made contact with his.

Their wet muscles massaged each other lovingly, one not looking to dominate the other, but like a pair of dancers performing a delicate waltz.

A soft moan escaped Sonata's throat as she cupped the side of Robust's face.

He ran a hand along her shoulder, down to the small of her back, and steadily brought her closer to himself.

Withdrawing after a minute or two, Sonata peck Robust's lips once more before sitting upright on top of his stomach.

She licked her lips sensually while letting out an audible smack as she evaluated the taste.

"Mm. Yummy. I'm going to need seconds on that." She cooed dreamily.

Robust gazed lovingly up at his partner as she sat atop of him, to which she returned with a smile and wink.

"But first, if you don't mind." She scooted down his torso, then after reaching a more comfortable spot laid herself down.

In her new position, Sonata's head rested on his chest, ear over his heart.

"I'd like to be close to you for." She let out a soft yawn, then continued. "Just a little bit." her voice grew quiet at that last part, as she snuggled in, hugging him close.

Robust rubbed her back gingerly while breathing steadily.

Soft breathes could be heard coming below his chin.

He fought the urge to chuckle for fear of waking the napping girl.

He looked up to the sealing and let his mind wander.

For some reason or another, a thought crept into Robust's mind.

"Maybe you could sing for me sometime?" Sonata's question reverberated inside his mind.

Robust pondered the question.

Not so much about why she asked, because it wasn't as if he wouldn't, rather it was what would be a good song to sing for her.

Something with feeling in it, maybe?

A song came to the forefront of the stage of his mind.

One he remembered his father sang to his mother a long time ago.

He wet his lips as the words came to him and began to sing softly.

"This magic moment, so different and so new was like any other, until I kissed you."

He closed his eyes and concentrated on remembering how the song went.

"And then it happened, it took me by surprise, I knew that you felt it too, by the look in your eyes."

He rubbed her back absentmindedly as the words came from his mouth.

"Sweeter than wine. Softer than the summer night. Everything I want, I have. whenever I hold you tight."

Being too caught up in his singing, he didn't feel the girl on his chest lift her head up slowly to look at him.

"This magic moment, while your lips are close to mine, will last forever. Forever 'till the end of time."

He finally felt something grip his chest, causing him to look down.

What he saw was Sonata, biting the corner of her lower lip as tears welled up in her eyes looking back up at him.

Robust thought maybe he had done something wrong.

"I'm sor-MPH!"

Before he could finish speaking to the blue hued girl, she pushed herself forward and smashed her mouth to his in a moment of burning lust.

The flames of passion had grown from a small flame to a roaring bonfire thanks to Robust's love song.

She peppered his face then neck with kisses, which turn to love bites, as her breathing grew labored and ragged.

Sonata pressed herself against him, as if the act could fuse them together.

After a moment however, it seemed she had grown more and more frustrated at the lack of something.

Sitting up quickly, she ripped her night shirt off faster than a pit-crew member could change a tire, leaving her chest bare to the dumbfounded Robust.

He could have sworn he could hear an anime style "Wow." fill his ears right then.

She was absolutely breathtaking.

Reaching down, she clasped one of his hand's then brought it to her breast.

Sonata let out a satisfied moan as she gave a longing look to the newly befuddled Robust, because of this wonderful new feeling.

"Touch me, please. I can't calm down at all."

Holy crap, this has jumped past a few levels!

Robust gazed up to the girl seated on him, kneading her breast with his hand, her hand over his.

All of the stimulation had an effect of causing his manhood to make itself known, pressing into Sonata's crotch.

She let out a blissful "Ah!" before glancing down at the cause of the wonderful feeling.

Her eyes grew wide at the massive protrusion that tented his pants and had pressed on her undercarriage just right.

Turning back to Robust, his face had turned beet red in embarrassment.

After releasing his hand, she moved to free his member from its blue jean prison.

Unbuckling, followed by unzipping his pants, the siren gave the no longer needed garments a yank downward.

With a little help of Robust lifting his hips, she revealed his 'cash and prizes' to fresh air, full view of Sonata.

A massive pillar, to which she had never seen before, stood tall and proud right in front of her face.

Her eyes grew wide in shock for a moment, before shifting into a more lascivious grin while saying, "Oh, My."

Sitting in the living room, enjoying a stupid 'so bad its good' movie on television, the two elder sirens' ate hand fulls of popcorn.

A man opened a door leading to a rooftop while saying, "I did not hit her! It's not true! It's BULLSHIT. I did not hit her! I did not!"

The man threw a water bottle to the ground. He then turned slightly to the right and without pause said, "Oh hi mark."

Aria cackled with laughter at the poor line delivery.

"Man, this is way better than half the crap being shoveled out to the theaters now a days. Most of them are some BS remake, too."

Adagio wiped a tear from her eye nodding.

"I know, right. I'd take this over whatever the hell 'cartoon turned live action' cash grab they throw out."

After they calmed down a bit from there laughing fit, Aria looked over her shoulder to Sonata's bedroom.

"Hey Adagio, do you think their going to be alright alone together?"

Adagio rolled her eyes and scoffed.

"Oh pul-ease. Sonata's too much of an airhead to do anything like that, and he's not the type to force himself on her. I'd bet their relationship will be like one of those rom-com anime's where the protagonist can't even get so much as a kiss till last episode of the third season. And that's if he's lucky."

Suddenly, a sound came from behind them.

It was only for a second, but it was a loud "AH!" for sure.

The two looked at each other with a raised eyebrow.

Aria reached for the remote and pressed the Mute button, bringing the room to silence.

After a few seconds, a longer "Ah!" was heard, followed by a "Mphft!" at the end.

Silence once more.

Then there came a creaking sound, like someone bouncing on a bed along with groans of pleasure.

The creaking sound started off at a slow steady pace, but steadily, the tempo went up as well as the moaning until.

A song came from behind the door.

A beautiful, other worldly song sung by what could only be thought of as an angel from heaven.

♪"Ah! Sweet mystery of life, at last I found thee! Ah! At last, I know the secret of it all; All the longing, seeking, striving, waiting, yearning; The idle hopes, the joy and burning tears that fall!"♫

Aria and Adagio's eyes grew wide, and mouths slackened, threatening to hit the floor.

The song continued.

♪"For 'tis love, and love alone, the world is seeking; And 'tis love, and love alone, Ive waited for! And my heart has heard the answer to its calling, for it is love that rules for-ever-more!"♫

Aria was about to ask, 'What the fuck was that?' but was cut off by a more masculine voice reply back.

♪"Ah! Sweet mystery of life, at last I found thee! Ah! At last, I know the secret of it all; All the longing, seeking, striving, waiting, yearning; The idle hopes, the joy and burning tears that fall!"♫

The two Joined in harmony on the last verse, perfectly matching one another.

♪"For 'tis love, and love alone, the world is seeking; And 'tis love, and love alone, I've waited for! And my heart has heard the answer to its calling, for it is love that rules for-ever-more!"♫

Then just as suddenly as it had started, it stopped, along with that creaking.

The silence was deafening as the two elder sirens pieced together in their minds what had just transpired in the last few minutes.

Finally, Aria closed her mouth, then spoke.

"Can I still take that bet?"

Sonata clung naked to Robust, panting and gasping for air, with a smile on her face filled with love and satisfaction.

Robust held the girl in kind with the same look plastered on his face.

Well. That was a thing that just happened.

They basked in the afterglow of their becoming one with each other, when he had a very important thought jump to the forefront.

After licking his parched lips, he spoke.

"Sonata."

The girl in question turned her head and smiled up at him, too tired to get up.

"Yes?"

He peered deep into her eyes, then stated the words that had seared itself into his very soul.

"I love you, Sonata."

Those eyes lit up brighter than a Christmas tree in the blackest of nights.

She squirmed on top of him, drew close then planted her lips on his once more.

After pulling away, she gave a love filled smile.

"I love you too, Robust."

Their heart's beat as one while they held onto each other, falling asleep to dream of what would come in the future.
