He gave a small, proud grin when she turned back toward him and confirmed that his chosen spot was sufficient. He would have searched the Nook high and low for a good den for them to spend the night in if it hadn’t been, but it seemed the romantic atmosphere of the trees and stars won out in the end. He was glad when his touch wasn’t rejected and was even more glad to feel her give some of her own in return. The light nibbles along his jaw sealed away any possibility that he might reconsider going through with whatever she wanted and her kiss stoked the fires of his own, less known desire. These weren’t feelings that he’d really let himself indulge in often enough to be familiar with them and it caused them to be even more dazzling and wonderful now. Just as he was fully melting into their kiss she pulled away and when he blinked his eyes open he saw her head dipped down toward the ground. He frowned and for a moment he feared that he had done something wrong, but it seemed that it was the opposite. Hearing her echo his thoughts from earlier confused him since he couldn’t imagine a world where she was the one to take advantage of him. It made his ears flick uncertainly and he wasn’t really sure how to respond for a moment. All he really knew at this point was that he wanted her. It was certainly true that they really knew nothing about each other and maybe it would be a mistake to be so intimate with a stranger, but he couldn’t find it in himself to care. Attention and affection had been so scarce and sparse throughout his life that a small taste of it was like giving water to someone lost in a desert. He took a small step closer and settled on his haunches so he could gently drape his foreleg around her shoulders again, offering her himself to lean on again if she wished. He looked down at her and didn’t force her to look up at him, but looked for her eyes all the same. "And here I was worrying that I was going to be taking advantage of you,” he finally replied softly with a slight chuckle. He trailed his claws through the fur of her scuff absent mindedly, letting his dark claws part the pale fur and gently scritch her skin in the process. "I only want what you want. If you want all of me then you’ll have it. If you just want to have a companion to sleep with tonight that’s fine as well. If you want to turn around and leave now and go back to Lirim I won’t stop you.” He peered down at her curiously, searching her face for answers. ”I’m whatever you need me to be tonight.” |
