i missed you so

She wasn’t sure it was possible but as the moments wore on Hattori was becoming looser than he’d ever been around her. His subtle hint of amusement as she teased him and the way he lingered against her touch. Venom didn’t hide the way her dark lips pulled back, nor could she if she tried. The liquor was strong, and for a young woman who had yet to have her first sip, it was quick to take her under its influence. The young Empress felt euphoric and their little jokes between each other were far more amusing and endearing than sober Venom might have thought.

If she felt this light and care free how was Hattori with his swig up on her? The words the fell from his lips could have been taken seriously, but if there was anything she didn’t expect from Hattori it was to have his will forced upon her. Venom grinned mischievously in answer as she tried not to dwell on the thought of him vaulting her to his back kicking and screaming.

She struggled to her feet, and nearly fell back to the earth before Hattori was at her side quick as a flash. The sake hadn’t hindered his speed any. Venom felt her breath hitch at the sudden proximity to him along with the feeling of his voice reverberating through her delicate frame. ”I wanted to be dramatic.” She replied softly, surprised at how close their muzzles were now. Soft lashes blinked over her sunset gaze. ”Make my point as I stormed off…” her voice trailed as she glanced up into his sharp silver eyes. Nervous at what she might find harbored in his stormy gaze.
