Together

"Finishing a good book is like losing a good friend."-William Feather

I stood before the wooden door with a bit of nervousness. Elizabeth had told me that Sally was safe but I just had to be sure, Patrick died to make sure she was safe and I don't want it to be in vain. I took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

A moment later, a man with light brown hair, green eyes, a sweater, and dress pants opened the door. "Yes? Can I help you?" he asked.

"Jack right? My name's Jacob. I'm umm...a friend of Sally." I said, making the man's eyes widen at my explanation. I saw his hand each for something behind his back.

"How do..." he started.

I raised a hand, "We both served under a certain manipulating asshole." I said , he had a cautious air around him like I did, but after a moment it seemed to vanish.

"So how do you know Sally exactly?" he asked, curious to know how I became aware of her existence.

"My dad took care of her before...yeah." I said, remembering the yellow eyes she had. Jack gave me a sympathetic look, if anyone knew what I was talking about it was him.

He turned into the house, "Sally? Could you come here a second?" he called into the house. We heard the sound of running feet going down stairs.

Sally in her white dress a stood behind Jack, blocking me from her sight, "What is it uncle Jack?" she asked. Jack stepped out of the way and showed me standing in the doorway.

She looked at me for a moment before her face turned into one with realization. She stood still for a moment before running and hugging my legs, "I-it's you..." she said shakily.

I kneeled down and hugged her, "Hey Sally." I greeted warmly. I pulled away to see her smiling face and blue eyes brimming with tears. "Wanna see what I brought you?" I asked. she tentatively shook her head.

I pulled out the doll head from my pocket, "Sarah!" she squealed. She grasped the doll head and coddled it, completely forgetting me. I smiled nonetheless .

Jack gave her a firm look, "What do you say Sally?" he asked.

She looked back at me and hugged me again, "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" she said repetitively before retreating back inside. Ah, children, they only love ya when you give them toys.

Jack gave me a apologetic look, "Sorry, the girls are still learning manners. But they're improving." he said as I stood up.

I shrugged, "No problem...thank you. For taking care of her I mean." I said.

Jack nodded, "No problem...so how do you know me?" he asked. I laughed, I would explain it to him but I'm in a schedule.

"Next time I see ya I'll tell ya." I said as I retreated down the steps.

"When will that be?" Jack asked. In all honesty it could be never, but you never know.

"Don't know. See you around Jack." I called out as I headed down the street.

Turing into a alleyway, I looked down at my watch, in 3, 2, 1. A tear on the side of a building opened, Elizabeth on the other side in her tower dress as I called it. I quickly jumped through after making sure no one was watching.

I landed in my apartment on the other side, "So? You make your delivery?" Elizabeth chided. She told me fir the past two days that I had nothing to worry about with Jack but I wanted to be sure.

"Yes I did. And you where right. I'm worrying about nothing." I said, making her smile in triumph. I walked over to the couch and laid down, I was still partially recovering from my time with Atlas, so I wasn't doing anything strenuous.

Elizabeth stood over me with a partially worried look, "Your not hurt are you?" she asked, wanting to make sure I was alright.

I smiled at her concern, "Trust me I'm fine Elizabeth." I said reassuringly. I'm really not sore or anything, but Elizabeth has been playing nursemaid since I've gotten out of Rapture. Not that I don't like the attention but I don't like seeing her worry.

She rolled her eyes and joined me on the couch, my arms wrapping around her automatically. "So, now that we got that over with, what now?" she asked.

I guess...nothing now. For the past two day or so I've been so focused in making sure Sally was alright I didn't even think of the fact that we where safe now, "Well with Columbia out of existence, Rapture in ruins, and Comstock dead. We got nothing to do now."

Elizabeth laughed, "Your making that sound like a bad thing!" she said jokingly, "Jacob, we can both have a normal life now, no more fighting for our lives, no more danger, nothing . Just you and me." she said confidently.

I smiled at that, "I do like the sound of that idea. Really like it." I said, tightening my grip on her slightly.

Elizabeth smiled shyly, "You know...you still have to keep up on that promise you made." she said as she gave my chin a light kiss.

Promise? What promise did I...oh...OH! I felt my face turn a shade of red, never in a million years would I think Elizabeth would bring sex up in a conversation.

Before I could respond, her lips captured mine with passion. I felt her tongue glide teasingly over my lips, just as I was about to open she pulled away and ever so slowly slid her tongue into my mouth.

Good mother of Christ above, where did Elizabeth learn this!

When she pulled away I saw she had gone into a sitting position over my waist. Elizabeth was straddling me, "Where the hell-"

She placed a finger over my mouth, "Not now, later." she said with a final tone in her voice.

Good enough for me.

Lemon Warning

I abruptly sat up and kissed her, taking her off guard. "Bedroom." I mumbled against her soft lip, last thing we wanted was someone walking in on the two of us.

I scooped her up in my arms bridal style and carried her into the bedroom, kicking the door shut behind me. I put Elizabeth on the bed, she abruptly grabbed me by my shirt and dragged me down with her.

Her body was sprawled out under mine, her hands where on the edges of my face and was holding our kiss in place. I pulled away momentarily, "Do-do you want this?" I heard my inner thoughts curse my hide, but I have to be sure.

Elizabeth leaned in to my ear, "Jacob, I want you to make me scream your name." And now the inner thoughts are thanking me.

Elizabeth begun unbuttoning her blouse with her fingers quickly as she could manage. I took the hint and slid my shirt over my head. Elizabeth stopped her movements when she saw my torso, "Oh...wow." she said.

Elizabeth had seen me shirtless only once if I remember correctly and I nearly died then, so my face blushed red when she looked at my scars. Before I could speak, she flipped us on the bed so that she was straddling me again.

Her hands ran tentatively over my exposed chest, no doubt Elizabeth knew what male anatomy was from books but this was her first time actually seeing it. Her hands glided over my skin giving me goosebumps, I let itenvertenly let out a chuckle when she brush against my belly button.

She starting putting butterfly kisses on the scars I had, not missing any. I let out a groan when she made her way up my neck.

My hands hesitantly went to finish her work on her shirt. Elizabeth was a bit startled by my bold action but she didn't protest , in face she joined in. Slipping off the price of cloth, I was surprised to find a black bra covering her.

Elizabeth's face was redder than mine, I sat up and captured her lips. I ran my hand up the side of her face, "Hey, your not the only one whose nervous." I said honestly. I had a million things going through my mind right now, but I was just focusing on her.

She smiled bashfully, "Let's remedy that then." her hands went behind her back.

I felt my face turn red, "Um...c-could you.." Elizabeth started. I nodded and covered my eyes with my hands, trying to make it more comfortable for her. I heard the clasps on the undergarment snap off, "O-ok."

I took a peak and saw Elizabeth covering herself with bright redness radiating from her face. I smile and kiss her lips, "I love you Elizabeth, you don't need to hide yourself." I said, putting her at ease.

Elizabeth let's out a breath against my lips, I feel her hands pull my head in close and kisses me again. I pull her body down with me onto the bed sheets, careful not to bump her against anything. I rolled so that I'm the one on top again.

If we keep this up we may end up on the floor...I'm not opposed to the idea I won't lie.

I pull back and I get a look at her, the soft mounds that she hid where extremely tantalizing. My hands slid up her body and groped them, Elizabeth let out a breathless sigh, "I guess you like them." she said boldly.

I leaned down and kissed her nose, "I love them. But I love you more." I said, trailing my lips down against her skin. My palms fit almost completely over her breasts, and they where incredibly soft. My fingers brushed past the nipple bud, "Ooh..." she moaned out.

My lips where in the part between the two breasts. I disconnected my lips from her flesh, "Your gonna like this." I said, bringing my mouth over the pink bud, my hot breath making her breath heavily. I brought my lips down to the nipple and kissed it, Elizabeth squirmed underneath me.

"Oh my god!" she shouted, I felt hands on the back of my head pushing me down, "M-more..." she moaned as I continued kissing and licking the bud.

My hand slid around her side and down her back. I hesitated before I gave her ass a squeeze, she let out a gasp in response.

While I worked on the other breast, I traced along the black panties to the front...she was damp down there. "Oh...Fuck." Elizabeth covered her mouth at the obscenity.

I chuckled at her reaction, "Say whatever you want Elizabeth. It's only us." I said, brushing my fingers against the moistness again.

She inhaled loudly, "J-Jacob, take them off." she demanded. I looped my fingers from both sides and slid them down her amazing legs. I couldn't help but stare briefly at the hairless pussy.

I ran my hands up her thighs, when I got to the wet lips I slid a single finger inside, "Oh god!" she screamed out. I swirled it inside making her hips buck onto my finger. Elizabeth was let out a long moan, fuck Elizabeth.

I felt her moist walls clamp down over my fingers in a voce grip. "J-Jacob st-stop." she said, I froze in place. Before I could ask why she kissed me deeply, "It's only fair we both be rid of our cloths." she whispered as she undid the bow in her hair.

No arguments here.

I slipped my boxers off my lower body, my...solider at attention.

Elizabeth's eyes widened at my member, "So that's what you look like." she leaned in to my ear, "Jacob, I want you right here, right now." I think I'm dreaming right now.

Elizabeth laid down onto the sheets, before I could act I realized something, "Elizabeth I don't have a condom." I said. Elizabeth is my first girlfriend and this wasn't planned.

She slyly smiled, "Your mother, she gave me birth control pils."

Ok...ew. But thank you mom.

I lined myself with her entrance, Elizabeth spread her legs around my kneeling form to give me room, "This is going to hurt...we can stop if you want me to."

Elizabeth wrapped her legs around me, "I'm ready."

I nodded. I got as close as I could to her body, then I slowly slid myself into her. Elizabeth's breath hitched in her throat, "I'll stop when you tell me." I said as I stayed in place.

I awaited for her to say the word. After a few moments, she nodded and I slid myself into her further. When I pressed up against her wall, I looked at her face and she nodded. I pulled back and quickly thrust forward.

"GAHH!" Elizabeth screamed out, I froze and kissed her, whispering apologies over and over again. We stayed like this for a few minutes before Elizabeth told me it was okay to move.

Elizabeth was so damn tight...

Her moist walls squeezed my member as I moved back, not wanting it to leave the sweet lips. "Jesus..." I muttered, this is the most in incredible feeling of my life. And it being with Elizabeth makes it all the more better.

I slid myself forward into her, I put my hands on her waist and pulled her towards me, "Oh...god..." Elizabeth groaned, making me move faster into her slick lips.

"M-more." Elizabeth groaned, I started going faster, Elizabeth started moving on her own, pushing herself onto me when I slid in.

"I-I want to-Ahhhh-I want to be on top." she said, a moan coming over her.

I slowly rolled over so that I wouldn't accidentally hurt her, when she was on top I put my hands on her thighs to steady her. She slowly lifted herself up then slid down, "Y-your filling me..." I bucked up when she slid down. "Oh-oh God!" she called out.

Elizabeth started going up and down faster, when she'd go down I'd thrust up. My hands trailed up from her hips onto her breasts, "J-Jac-AHH!" she yelled when my fingers pitched her nipples.

I raised myself up and brought one of her breasts into my mouth, my tongue went over and over the bud making Elizabeth moan loudly. Her walls where clamping my shaft and the wetness that I felt just made me move more faster.

"O-oh m-AH! Jacob I'm...I'm close!" she yelled, I was too. Elizabeth wrapped her and around my neck as I thrusted into her faster, "I-oh god! J-JACOB!" Elizabeth screamed out my name as her orgasm took over and her back arched.

The feeling if her walls squeezing and moisten made me reach my limit too. With a few more thrusts I released myself with a groan as my seed shot out.

Lemon over.

Me and Elizabeth collapsed onto the bed together. We where both heavily breathing, "That was...incredible." Elizabeth said breathlessly as I pulled the covers overtop us.

I smiled at that, "So...it was good?" I asked.

Elizabeth gave me a ridiculous look, "Jacob! That was the most amazing thing I've ever experienced!" she exclaimed, I felt my pride swell at that.

Elizabeth moved her body so that her head was on my chest. Her arms wrapped around me and cuddled into me, "I can't wait to do this again." Elizabeth said sleepily. Ohhhhh I can't wait.

I felt my eyes start to get heavy, and with Elizabeth's warm body so close to mine, I feel asleep pretty quickly.

I cracked open a eye and I instantly regretted it. The sun was just Peking through my bedroom window, looking on my chest I saw Elizabeth with a content smile on her face.

I pecked her on the forehead and slipped out of bed and closed the window. I slipped some pjs on and tiptoed my way towards the door and shut it quietly behind me.

"Good morning Mr. Harper."

I jumped at the two voices and knew who it was immediately, "You two got some nerve coming here." I said as I turned to face them. The Lutece twins in all their glory where crashing on my and Elizabeth's couch.

"We simply wished to check in on you."

"Well you and the girl."

"See if you two where both safe with one another."

"Turns out we had nothing to worry about."

"Nothing at all."

Oh son of a bitch...Elizabeth can't know or she'll literally kill them, like capital K Kill them! "Look, I'm a little disgusted with you two right now and Elizabeth, well we both know the stunt you pulled with Daisy."

Robert and Rosalind looked at one another, "We had hopped that you would both understand."

"That if there was another way,"

"That we would have had you taken it."

"But the only choice left was the hard one."

I slid a hand over my face and let out a sigh, "I know...but Elizabeth never should have gone through that. You both know that right?" I asked. They nodded, "Okay good, now please, I'm going to make Elizabeth and I breakfast and I'm only making it for two," I said as I went into the kitchen, "so if you two would be so kind-"

They where already gone, "-enough to gets the fuck out if appreciate it."

I went to work quickly, I made the one thing that everyone loves. Bacon, eggs, and French toast...French..

"Good morning." I looked over my shoulder to see Elizabeth in her shirt from yesterday...and nothing else...thank you god.

"Morning. Hope your hungry." I said, Turing with plates for both of us in my hands. She smiled as she accepted the food as we sat down at the breakfast nook.

Elizabeth and I both dug into the food, "My goodness, you can cook as well? Your certainly the catch." she said jokingly.

I rolled my eyes at her comment. My eyes trailed up her legs and to her head, she had a small case of bed head but I was more focused in that she was only wearing her shirt...I wonder of she had anything on underneath.

Elizabeth saw me eyeing her, "Undressing me with your eyes Jacob?" I blushed at her observation, to be fair she is pant-less.

I rubbed the back of my head, "Maybe?" I said. Elizabeth laughed.

After finishing up the food, I took the dishes bed washed them. One thing my mom drilled into my head is to clean up after myself. Thank goodness too, last thing I want Elizabeth to see is a sloppy apartment.

Speaking of whom, age wrapped her arms around me as I did the dishes, "You know, we smell like sweat, sex, and...unmentionable things." she said from behind. "Maybe we should clean each other off."

Forget the dishes, I'll do later.

I turned and kissed Elizabeth deeply, Elizabeth was all to grateful to return it back, I felt her hand trail down my chest to my midsection, and down to the hem of my-

"OH BLOODY GOD I'M BLIND!"

Me and Elizabeth stumbled away from each other at the unrecognized voice, my hand went for a knife in the sink ready for a splicer.

It was my mother at the door.

Oh god. Why do you hate me so much?

Me and Elizabeth where dead silent, mom rubbed her eyes with her fingers, "I'm going to go out for a bit, and then come right back in. Please be dressed when I do so." she said as she shut the door.

Me and Elizabeth had red faces as we retreated back into my room, "Well at least it wasn't my papa." Elizabeth said as we dressed.

Sweet Christ I don't want to even think of that scenario.

…3 weeks later...

I looked out to the river, across it where the locals enjoying their daily lives and customs. But to tourists like me and Elizabeth, Paris was amazing.

We had finally decided to come here together and Elizabeth was like a kid high on sugar the moment we got here. When we checked into a hotel last night she was bouncing on the balls of her feet just to get to sleep so that we could go out the next day.

I was currently sitting at a small café while Elizabeth was chatting up artists that where painting portraits of the river. Elizabeth opened a tear to the late 1930's to see Paris in it's prime, I wasn't exactly a history buff so I just took her word for it.

Elizabeth ran over to me and pulled me up from my seat with a smile, "Come on! Let's go!" Elizabeth said as she pulled me down the street, "I want to get to the top of it today!" she said with the biggest smile on her face as we headed towards the Eiffel Tower.

Elizabeth has been having the best time of her life since we got here last night. "Easy Elizabeth! Your gonna tear my arm off if you keep pulling like-OW!" this has basically been my entire day. Elizabeth pulling me from monument to monument, of course I didn't mind at all but it was killer in my arms.

Elizabeth slowed herself down to a walk, "Sorry, it's just...we're in Paris!" she exclaimed, turning us in a circle. Elizabeth was wearing her Lady Comstock Dress, she swiped it from Rapture a few days ago. She also cut her hair back to the familiar length when she first got the dress.

I laughed at her child like nature, "Yes, and we're going to be here for the rest of the week. So there's no hurry." I said, making her pout a little.

"But it's our first day here! We've got to go see it!" she said, starting to pick up the pace again. This woman can open tears in the fabric of space time, see into every possible future, and has godlike omnipotence. But she's a little kid in Paris, somehow that fits her perfectly.

As the tower came into view down the street, Elizabeth started running, "Hey wait up!" I shouted after her. How does a girl in high heels run that fast?

Elizabeth looked back over her shoulder smiling, "Keep up slowpoke!" she called back. I smiled, I love this girl no matter what, even if she acts like a child.

Looking out over the city, I saw that Elizabeth wasn't joking about the city being absolutely beautiful at night. Elizabeth was looking over the railing of the tower with a look of amazement on her face.

I walked up behind her and wrapped my arms around her, "It's beautiful...my god it's just so beautiful." she said with tears brimming in her eyes. The sun was just beginning to set on the horizon and the street lamps below where coming on.

"Yeah, it really is. Is it as good as you imagined?" I asked, putting my head on her shoulder.

She nodded, "It's better than I imagined."

We stayed like that for the longest time, Elizabeth was in heaven right now, I didn't care if I stayed here with her for the entire week. "Stop me if I sound crazy.

"Ok stop." I got elbowed for that, "Sorry, had to say it. Go on." I said.

She rolled her eyes but smiled, "Well...this morning I was reading and I saw this beautiful picture of the countryside." so the countryside tomorrow, great, "And I saw that...that they had homes for sale..."

My eyes widened. Living together...in Paris...

The idea is exciting, a bit frightening, interesting, and a little dangerous. Elizabeth saw the look on my face and stopped, "Sorry, I was just thinking out loud Jacob." she said apologetically.

I've gone to a flying city, fought armies of zealots, killer robots with president heads, men in furnace suits, teleporting KKK rejects, and big ass robots. And I'm sacred of moving to Paris?

"Let's do it." I said confidently.

Elizabeth did a double take, "Jacob it's not a-" she started.

"Yes it is Elizabeth, look. We've been though so much together, and honestly...I can't imagine myself without you there with me." I said blushing.

She turned to look at me with shock, "How would we even get enough money to do it? The money value may be different but it's still a lot to buy a house here." she said with a bit of downcast in her voice.

I smiled, "You really have no clue how much cash I got from Columbia do you?" I asked, I didn't exactly have a budget. She still has a look of doubt on her face, "Look, Elizabeth," I grasped her shoulders, "you've gone your life with so much shit that you deserve this. And I'll be more than happy to be by your side."

Elizabeth but down on her lip, "A house in the countryside with just us...a unmarried couple." I visibly gulped. Elizabeth's eye's widened, "Not that I'm saying that we do! But people are gonna talk regardless."

I shrugged, "So what? I mean...if it means that much..." I didn't bring a ring with me, maybe I should have...

Elizabeth shook her head, "No! I mean...not now...and I really don't care what the people say. I love you Jacob Harper. That's all I care about." she said, pecking my lips.

I smiled, "This is gonna take a bit...you have a house picked out?" I asked.

Elizabeth put on a thoughtful look, "Well horns fly I have five in mind but I should be able to narrow it down." she said, warning a shocked look from me.

"You've been thinking about this for a while. Haven't you?" I asked.

She pushed some hair behind her ear and blushed, "Maaayyyyybbbeeee." she said, dragging out the word.

...One week later...

Elizabeth and I where laying down on the couch in the living room of our new home. It took much debating, arguing , and a few nights on the couch for me to find the perfect home.

Elizabeth was reading my copy of The Great Gatsby and she was loving it, "So how's it coming along?" I asked, her head in my lap while she read. I found out that Elizabeth was like a kid and TV when she had a book.

"It's enthralling to say the least. The way the author details the world is exceptional." she said, her eyes not leaving the book.

"Well I'm glad you like it sweetheart." I said. She was silent as she stared into the pages of the book, "Elizabeth?" Still silence, "The Eiffel Tower is falling." Still nothing.

What'd I say? Like a kid and TV.

"Wanna have sex?" I asked in a last ditch effort. I found out that Elizabeth is...very interested in the new subject...ok she likes it so much that I've come home just be jumped on and kissed until we're in the bed a few times.

Not that I'm complaining.

And she's still reading the book. Great. Time for dangerous measures, I snatched the book out of her hands, "Hey! I was reading that!" Elizabeth exclaimed, trying to reach for the book.

I held it above my head, out of her reach, "I'm trying to talk and your focusing on Daisy and Gatsby. One of the worst romances in history." I said, making her sit up.

"What? Did you read the same story as me? Jay is so romantic, he just built his house across the bay just to be close to her." she supplied.

"That's not romantic that's stalking! And she's married!" I replied.

Elizabeth crossed her arms and gave me a look, "To a husband who cheats on her. Your telling me that it's okay for a man to cheat on a woman, but it's horrible if a woman cheats on a man?" she asked me with a cross look.

"It's horrible to cheat in the first place!" I reasoned.

Me and Elizabeth where silent for a moment, "Ok yeah that's true." Elizabeth said reasonably, "Now give me the book." she said with a smile as she reached for it.

I kept it out of her reach still, "Jacob seriously! Daisy and Jay just came clean and I want to see how Tom reacts!" she said as she made a grab for it.

I rolled my eyes, if I spoiled what happened I would definitely spent tonight on the couch. "Fine. Here you go, read until your eyes burn my love." I said as I handed her the book.

She went back to her position on my lap, her book held tighter in her hands in case I struck again. "And the Eiffel Tower didn't fall, we would have felt the vibrations already. And no, I'm not in the mood for sex right now." she replied, making my jaw drop a tad.

Okay maybe not like a kid and TV.

I woke up about a hour later, Elizabeth was gone and I heard...music? Standing up from the couch, I fallowed the sound of it up the stairs, it was coming from my and Elizabeth's room. I peeked in to see the woman in question humming along to...herself?

The song was coming from a phonograph in the corner and it was Elizabeth singing. She saw me at the door and smiled, "Remember when I said I just sung for Cohen?" she asked, answering my unsaid question.

I walked over and offered her a hand, "May I have this dance Miss. Elizabeth?" I asked.

Elizabeth smiled sweetly as she took my hand as the next song began to play on the record player.

'See the pyramids along the Nile. Watch the sunrise, from a tropic isle.'

Elizabeth pressed her body close to mine as we slow danced to the song.

'Just remember darling all the while; You belong to me'

I remembered back to when I first saw her in her tower.

'See the marketplace in old Algiers. Send me photographs and souvenirs.'

I recalled when she asked me if I was real. And I was.

'Just remember, when the dream appears. You belong to me.'

Dancing with her at Battleship Bay.

'And I'll be so alone, without you.'

Our very first kiss together.

'And blue.'

I left her, but that'll never happen again.

'Fly the ocean in a silver plane, see the jungle when it's wet, with rain.'

I pulled away a tad, "I love you Elizabeth."

'Just remember, till your home again.'

She smiled with only a smile that I understand, "I love you too Jacob." she said. Our lips met. We're together here in Paris. And we always will be.

The False Shepard, and his Lamb.

'You belong...to me.'

AN: Hooray they're in Paris in love!

Ok, so I can do a few things now.

First, if you guys want, I can make another story on what they do in Paris in one shots or something. No more crazy adventures.

Or, I can make some standalone stories about these two in different universes, i.e. They both meet each other for the first time in Rapture without having to find Comstock or something like that.

Or I can do both. I'm flexible. And I do love writing about these two. And if you all have any suggestions feel free to send me a message or leave one in the reviews below.

Thank you all for taking the time to read my story, I hope you enjoyed Elizabeth and Jacob.

As Goku said, Until we meet again my friends!
