Silver Moonlight

His deep voice was soft but also held a serious tone with her as he against reminded her there was nothing to be sorry for. She couldn’t have helped what happened, she did exactly what she was supposed to. Ask for him to stop when she grew too uncomfortable. Lillith just hated how uncomfortable she was, she knew that she wanted to kiss him and a part of her wanted to explore the burning feeling he’d caused throughout her form. He simply nodded at her confession, bringing no more comment to the table about his adventurous kisses. Lil lowered her head a little and watched her ivory paws, slowly catching her breath as she lay beside him on the cool stone floor. This had to be so far from what he had been envisioning for their night. Guilt ate at her but she tried to tell herself this wasn’t the last opportunity for kisses, they had a whole winter to find cozy places to snuggle up and try again. Maybe she would do better knowing what was to be expected.

The silence wasn’t uncomfortable, but she still felt the scenario weighing heavily on her head even as Roman spoke again. How was the floor treating her? His obvious concern for her helped to ease the emotions filling her as he offered a couple alternatives to the floor they were laying on. "A little better,” she answered honestly. At least she didn’t think she was going to die of heat stroke. "Would you take me to the balcony?” The cool air would help more, that and they would be under the moon and stars together. Lilith didn’t often see the world at this time of night, and she kind of liked the idea of stargazing with Roman. She still felt bad about what happened on the bed, but he hadn’t left her and his concern never diminished.
