[ the hand that's on merlin's back lifts from his shirt and she just raises her fist into the sky—
no no. oh my god.
but she does move the hand to his shoulder to squeeze as he kisses her teasingly at first, her breathing having gotten louder now. probably as loud as her heart. and it's even more evident when he kisses the sides of her mouth. but she does kiss him back when he kisses her properly this time around. ]
after she already mentioned it?!?!?! at least he only looked up the kissing and not the Rest
[ This time he doesn't hold back the faint noise that slips out between their mouths as she squeezes his shoulder, mostly because of how strong it is when he feels weak at the knees and in his head. His head isn't banging quite as much now, but he feels light headed when she kisses him back.
His hands move away from her then, the one in her head accidentally brushing her neck and ear as he pulls it away, to press both down to the bed to grip tightly. It's hard to keep anchored to earth like this. ]
[ it should feel less warm with his hands not on her, but this is still okay. she has her hands on him, and she can feel and hear his heartbeat as they kiss. it's nice like this...
[ To be fair it only lasts so long before he's reaching with both hands to cup her face. His thumbs brush over her skin, and the kiss almost crosses into another territory as he drowns in her.
When he pulls back the next time, weight on her with his hands still holding her face, he just softly mumbles: ] Beautiful.
[ He lets out a breathless laugh, hand letting go of the side of her face that twists away to press it against her side instead. ]
I already said you don't need to say anything. [ When he does things like this, that is. His other hand tucks under her head, and really she's just made herself even more vulnerable by turning away. He just kisses her cheek at first, before slowly leaving tiny pepper kisses along her jaw until he reaches her neck.
He nuzzles his nose there before burying his head against her skin. His hand at her side shifts to wiggle under her, pulling her into a hug instead, the other slowly moving to rub along her arm.
Then he presses an open mouthed kiss against the base of her neck, where it meets shoulder, dipping just under the edge of her shirt. ]
I have to say something— [ she's a lawyer, for crying out loud. she should be able to negate his statements or come up with a rebuttal... her voice is hushed, as if complaining, but he wins this time around.
the kisses are ticklish at first, and she lets out soft laughter as her nails dig deep into his skin. she doesn't mean to hurt him , and he's lucky that her fingernails are cut short that it really shouldn't hurt. they're just there, latching onto him. but when that comes, it's totally unexpected JUST LIKE THAT TAG TBH and she squirms a bit as she laughs again. she never knew until today that she was that ticklish. ]
[ But this is the bedroom not a courtroom... It's a different story entirely!!
He hisses against her when her nails dig in, spine arching into her. It isn't so bad, but she probably doesn't need to know about the sparks of pleasure that shoot along his skin right to his fingertips at the motion. It might not hurt, but it does something else.
Unfortunately for her it caught him by surprise enough that he sucks in air, accidentally sucking on her skin until it reddens slightly too. Fortunately for her, once he calms down enough he does pull his head away to just rest his cheek against her shoulder instead.
He can see the faint mark (that will thankfully disappear in an hour or so) but doesn't mention it at the moment. ] Ticklish spot?
[ it's amazing how she still hasn't smacked him in this little journey of theirs today. because she's been tickled so much and she usually violently jerks, but her movements this time are a bit more controlled. it's different. she doesn't know why, either.
athena lets out a heavy breath before answering him. ] What do you think?
[ Well he has as well? Let's not forget who touched a ticklish spot first? It was her touching his ear. He shifts then so he's half resting his weight on the bed, trying to give her a little space. His other hand reaches to brush hair from her face. ]
I think it makes you smile, and that's important to me. Sorry if it bothered you.
[ It's only when Widget flashes on again that he realises that it had changed to behind with. He only really notices because he's looking down at her slightly too. ]
So you won't be upset with me now? [ Because that is the worst. ]
[ it's okay if you don't pay attention to the little robot, merlin. it's not like it tells you what athena's feeling or anything. (as if athena's not obvious with her emotions, in the first place.)
that question, though... she relaxes her arms and just lays on the bed to look at him. ]
Maybe next time. If you do something stupid again.
[ This is... so disturbing. Especially as his heart is still pounding a bit ]
Warning taken.
[ When she kisses him he melts a little, at least until she bites his lip and he almost gets drawn into trying to follow her. Instead he shifts his position in the hope she doesn't notice. ]
[ well, she really shouldn't stay long especially when he should be resting some more, but she'll definitely not move an inch from where she is if that's what he wants. ]
I don't mind either way. I just want you to be okay.
not knowing AT ALL instead?!
no no. oh my god.

god why
an experience she'll never forget. ]
:c he wants to make her happy why else
When he pulls back the next time, weight on her with his hands still holding her face, he just softly mumbles: ] Beautiful.
YOU KNOW WHAT NVM
should she say something back? god... why is this so hard? ]
You're-- [ what? beautiful too? wouldn't that sound weird? ] You.
DSGSKDGKDG WOW........

Merlin!

He hisses against her when her nails dig in, spine arching into her. It isn't so bad, but she probably doesn't need to know about the sparks of pleasure that shoot along his skin right to his fingertips at the motion. It might not hurt, but it does something else.
Unfortunately for her it caught him by surprise enough that he sucks in air, accidentally sucking on her skin until it reddens slightly too. Fortunately for her, once he calms down enough he does pull his head away to just rest his cheek against her shoulder instead.

no
athena lets out a heavy breath before answering him. ] What do you think?
[lonely]
I think it makes you smile, and that's important to me. Sorry if it bothered you.
yeah good
on the forehead.
it's a bit of a stretch on her part, pushing herself up with both arms and pushing her body onto him as she reaches for his forehead. ]
No... don't worry about me. [ not right now, anyway. ] I hope it didn't make you dizzy.
8(
It's only when she brings up dizziness that he blinks up at her, a little confused. ]
...Dizzy? [ well- ] Part of my headache went, actually. [ He says it with a bit of a laugh, actually seeming slightly sheepish about it. ]
8)
[ truly glad, that widget switches itself on again and displays athena's happiness with a green smiley face. ]
Mission complete.
;n;
So you won't be upset with me now? [ Because that is the worst. ]
'u'
that question, though... she relaxes her arms and just lays on the bed to look at him. ]
Maybe next time. If you do something stupid again.
:T
Though his hand does reach for hers now, trying to hold it and entwine their fingers. ]
Then you can punish me properly if you want. [ Meaning... bully him........ or something. ]
i love you... (unsure)
I get to punch you, really?
why the unsure?!
You don't have to sound so happy about it.
bc
Then consider this a warning, okay?
[ and she kisses him again, on the lips this time. just a soft one, but she bites his lower lip before pulling away. ]

no subject
but no, she doesn't notice. ]
Should I go home now?
no subject
Though he lets out a soft breath when she asks. ]
Do you want to?
no subject
I don't mind either way. I just want you to be okay.
no subject
I'm already okay. [ He pulls her hand gently, leans to kiss the back of it. ] You already made sure of that.
no subject
I'll leave in a little bit then... so you can get some more rest.
