SOMETHING SPECIAL
* 4 *
In the next moment Trinity and Neo felt the slight pain as the metal plug has been removed. They opened their eyes to realize being in the Core again.
They gazed each other for a long moment without words. Neither of them wanted to end this night. Both of them were just longing for sharing one more minute together. They still were in the Construct in mind.
Tank just watched them wondering how to get their attention. He was puzzled and felt uncomfortable being a burden for the two love-birds. He cracked his throat impatiently.
‘Guys…’ he tried to communicate them. ‘hello…?’
Neo smiled slightly enjoying the operator’s reaction. He got up pulling up Trinity too and turned to Tank.
‘Thanks Tank’, he patted the operator’s shoulder thankfully.
‘It’s OK..’ he marked. ‘I enjoyed the show.’ he added with a grin.
‘If you dared, I…’ Neo threatened him grabbing his arm playfully.
‘Ok, ok, I just joked..’ he apologized with a smile. ‘I’m innocent..’
‘I hope so..’
‘But Trinity, I guess you should wear a dress more times…’ Tank smirked. ‘It’d be a refreshing sight for us men…’
‘Tank…!?!’ her voice was threatening.
‘This idea is not as bad at all..’ Neo raised his eyebrows with a smirk, looking at her.
She placed her hands on her waist and looked at the two grinning men with a warning look. She tried to seem furious, but smile was playing in the corner of her mouth.
‘You two…’
They couldn’t help but bursting out in a laugh.
‘What is going on here?’ a familiar voice called from behind.
‘Switch, can’t sleep?’ Tank inquired still grinning.
She grimaced.
‘You are having a party here and don’t call me to join!?’ she marked wryly while approaching the group.
‘We were just talking…’ Trinity replied quietly.
‘But it’s late indeed, we should go to sleep…’ Neo stated glancing at her. She nodded.
‘I would also need a sleep badly’ Tank marked. ‘Switch, it’s your shift in a hour anyway, wouldn’t you be so kind to start it a bit earlier…’ he looked at her begging as a little puppy to its owner.
‘Don’t hope.’ she refused his ask with a wry smirk. ‘You will manage this hour as always.’, she added and left.
‘Cruel woman.’ he murmured watching her leave.
‘I heard it.’ she sneered without looking back.
Neo and Trinity grinned.
‘Tank, you aren’t lucky with women.’ Neo chuckled. ‘You rather should give a try to the woman in red.’
Trinity’s grin doesn’t fade.
‘I can’t count on my friends either..’ Tank glanced at them sulky.
‘Don’t take it so serious.’ Trinity said reassuring. ‘This hour will fly away.’
He looked at her grateful for her support. ‘Right.’ he managed a smile. ‘Nevertheless I am the best operator here, aren’t I?’
She returned his smile. ‘You are.’
‘Have a good sleep.’ he marked.
‘Thanks. And thank you for this night.’ she said seriously with brightening eyes.
‘You’re welcome. I’m glad that you had enjoyed it.’
‘We really had.’ Neo’s eyes met his. ‘Good night, Tank.’
He took Trinity’s hand and they headed out of the Core.
‘I have many ideas concerning downloads for the next party.’ Tank marked grinning.
They looked back to meet Tank’s wink. They couldn’t help but smiling broadly.
Tank smirked and turned back to the counsel to watch the green codes of the Matrix.
Neo and Trinity exchanged a glance and left.
