[ So much discrimination... Don't worry, he'll support you in your rights for orange treats. Fight hard!
Though the next thing he does is probably surprising. He has to lean up on his elbow first, testing his grounding, before he bites into the end of the chocolate macaron and leans down until the other side is close to her mouth.
It isn't pocky, but it's more delicious than pocky let's be real here. His now free hand presses down on the bed behind her to keep his balance though, just to make sure he doesn't go toppling forward and hopefully to brace for impact if she tries to smack him for this. ]
[ merlin's lucky this time around that athena doesn't smack him because what this is? this is new, and it should be smack-worthy, but... it's warm.
she bites into the other half of the macaron until she kisses him. she's never tried something like this before, but she's pretty sure this shouldn't be a long kiss anyway because they both have food in their mouths.
[ Somehow it's tastier like this too, just because of how serene the moment is with both of them occupied with taking the bite of the macaron, mouths touching, and then he pulls back to chew properly. ]
I think I prefer this one. [ He says it after he finishes, swallows then licks his lips. Chocolate was definitely the way to go for this, really, wasn't it? ]
the urge to just kiss him and make out with him is so strong right now. (this is not a gagtag) athena just kind of gives him a stare of bewilderment as if he's some kind of rare animal walking in the meadows. ]
Um.
[ um, what? she doesn't know what else to say now. but at least she's managed to swallow. ]
[ This time it's his turn to be bewildered, enough that he ends up sucking his lower lip into his mouth because okay, that's a lot more honest than he expected.
And he doesn't know what to say when his heart is pounding as it is, so all he stupidly says is: ] My room is pretty warm?
[ If she's still keeping count as she probably is, yes... she gets the point. Instead of holding out that macaron out any longer though he puts it back into the box, nudging that aside for now.
Instead he slides his hand to her face, rubs his thumb over her lip (it probably tastes of macarons at this point) and just quietly considers her for a minute. It's weird when he isn't trying to take control of the situation.
But it's nice. That she's say that. So he offers: ] I want that too. I mean, you're warm too.
[ does she really only get two points? she has a lot to catch up with so two points definitely isn't enough... why is merlin so unfair in the first place?
she bats her eyelashes as she looks up at the ceiling in response, though. . . ]
[ He's too hungover to be as unfair as he normally would be okay. It's a good time to catch up.
What she says definitely manages to fluster him a little further though, because she's clearly more forward with this than he is, even with the dumb macaron moment. But he isn't going to wait around all day either.
He isn't slow when he leans down, but it feels like it takes forever to finally kiss her properly. They both probably taste of chocolate and fruit. It isn't exactly soft either, as he lets part of his weight push into it. His mouth lingers. ]
[ it's good that he's the one initiating it because if athena did, she might do something wrong again and make things worse. this is better for the both of them, really.
a hand raises to cup merlin's cheek softly as she kisses him back. there's hint of spaghetti and the soup too, but there's definitely more chocolate and berries this time around.
[ His eyes flutter as soon as her hand touches his face and he melts into it a little. It's just soft little kisses in between, taking his time for each one to be felt between them, and to let the taste sink in. Sharing macarons was definitely a good idea.
Carefully he shifts his arm to get a better grip on the bed then lets the hand behind her move to press against her waist, holding on there so he doesn't topple, but also to hold her ]
[ she shifts to give his hand a bit of space just so she doesn't crush it or anything, but that's all she does about it for now. her hand moves to his hair, brushing through it softly, and a finger softly traces his earlobe to tickle him.
sharing macarons was definitely a good idea, and a sweet one at that. both literally and figuratively. her lips curve into a smile even as they kiss each other, really unable to hide what she's feeling right now. ]
[ Carefully he twists a little more so they're closer, but he's careful enough to ensure he isn't resting on her or anything. It's when her hand moves into his hair that he makes a soft noise in the back of his throat though, letting her know that it feels nice--or it does until his head jerks to the side with a faint laugh. His shoulder jumps up to protect his ear, but he only mumbles a soft: ] Tickles [ before he's leaning to kiss her again. Leaning to kiss the smile on her lips and how comfortable this feels, even with his dumb headache.
Like he knew that was the reason why she did it either?? ]
I didn't mind it. [ If she's worried, and all, considering what happened before.
He takes that pause to move his hand from her waist, sliding it up into her hair instead. His thumb strokes over her ear in return, only moving slowly and only a faint brush. ]
[ He has to try and tone down the smile that follows, mostly because of how she came back just as quickly as well. His hand shifts again then, sliding down the side of her head until his hand is curved against the side of her neck, staying there as he leans to kiss her again.
It's still slow, still with small kisses, though after 5 or 6 long seconds he presses his mouth down harder, pretty much capturing her lower lip between his until his teeth can graze over it. Just like she's initiated in the past. ]
[ it's then that athena pulls him closer, totally enraptured by the moment. her other hand moves to his back, gripping tightly on his shirt. her kisses probably get a bit more passionate than his, in hopes of making him feel better. this isn't about her. this is about him. ]
[ He can't think. Sure, part of that might be because it feels like someone took a sledgehammer to his skull, but it's also because he's getting just as caught up in this feeling too. This time, this time, he isn't as caught up in the what if's, in how this should be saved until things are more cemented between them and instead he gives into feeling.
It's when he feels the grip on his shirt, her pulling him in that he finally gives in to shift that little bit further to lower himself onto her. His forearm presses into the bed so he doesn't have to let go of her neck, though his fingers do slide up until they can curl into her hair, gripping tight but no where near enough to hurt--but definitely more than enough to be felt. Like he's gripping on for dear life once the space is closed between them.
His knee even shifts to dig into the bed in the hope he doesn't put too much weight on her, but it probably is still more than he expects when his other hand moves to clutch at her hip as well, fingers digging in.
Why?
Well... it's not as though she's actually making this easy. The tempo has definitely been raised already when she starts kissing him more passionately and between one time when he pulls back to take a quick breath and the next kiss he loses himself in her. No matter what beliefs he's been brought up with, what she's told him and what he's seen here erase that feeling until all he can think about is returning that feeling. His head tilts and this time the kiss is hard, kind of like he's snapped into getting waaay too caught up in this as well. ]
[ her eyes open wide and just look at him when he turns into something—somebody else. she's surprised, of course, she is. it's not everyday that merlin acts this way, nor was it in her psychological reading of him that he could be this way--
not that it's a bad thing. athena might try to come off as easily flustered majority of the time, but she's still a teen with wants. and at this moment, for moments that have already passed, she wanted and wants to be with him. the connotations of being with him don't have to be discussed, but athena's letting her heart just do its thing while detaching it from her brain.
besides, what's the worst that could happen?
not this.
the kiss has definitely become deeper, and she doesn't mind it despite her inexperience. she's only ever made out with ryuko for prom but that doesn't count... technically, she's never done something like this before. but she can try. and that's what she does. her grip on his hair probably gets a bit tighter but not enough to actually hurt him, and that's coupled with a soft moan when he does kiss her hard. ]
sweats... this is what happens when you corrupt innocent men athena
[ To be fair, he's not as honest as she is. She can hear his heart, but even then it's often a mess of different emotions. Like before, when she took it as a bad thing when he really was just trying to figure things out for himself.
They're both learning, though it may be different aspects to this anyway.
Now his heart feels like it's pounding so hard it'll break out of his chest, a gasp falling out of his mouth when she grips his hair and his eyes feel like they're rolling up at how nice that suddenly feels. It isn't too soft to fulfill the purpose like when she'd touched his ear earlier, it brings something heavier to the moment that has his mind flashing back to something else and--
God his hands are shaking when he pulls back for another breath, swallowing down the groan that's close to slipping out at the feeling. It doesn't help when she moans and he definitely feels flustered now, breathing hard when he leans to kiss her again, starting with two or three softer kisses before his lips pull on her lower lip.
His hand flies from her hip to grip at the bedsheet instead, twisting the fabric so he couldn't bruise her from how hard he needs to grip on now because his head is spinning too much, too quickly. That's when he lets his tongue flick out to tease her lower lip, testing waters even if he feels like he's going to have a heart attack here. ]

good god

gross.
and you don't chew while kissing? ]
i should have gone to church with you
I think I prefer this one. [ He says it after he finishes, swallows then licks his lips. Chocolate was definitely the way to go for this, really, wasn't it? ]
so you can think about bjs too huh
the urge to just kiss him and make out with him is so strong right now. (this is not a gagtag) athena just kind of gives him a stare of bewilderment as if he's some kind of rare animal walking in the meadows. ]
Um.
[ um, what? she doesn't know what else to say now. but at least she's managed to swallow. ]
oh i can do that anywhere u///u
...Did you prefer the berry ones instead? There's still the strawberry one--
[ Now he pulls that hand back that was behind her to reach for that instead, holding it in front of her mouth.
He doesn't have any idea what's going on in her head, sorry. ]
oh... then i guess we can't be together
and then-- ]
I just want to kiss you. And hug you. Why do you have to be so warm?
no........ ;n; i meant the church included!!!!
And he doesn't know what to say when his heart is pounding as it is, so all he stupidly says is: ] My room is pretty warm?
