*scene--the apartment that Horatio and Rey now share, on a lovely summer day; Horatio has opened a window to catch the sunlight, and he's sitting in the patch of sun, curled up on his beanbag chair. when Rey passes, he'll look up, with a smile* Can I ask you something?

*laughs, and beams* I just like having you around to be sweet to --

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

*softsmile* It doesn't bother you, that I might have a girlfriend after tomorrow?

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

It doesn't -- and I don't ever want to hold you back, I'm just ... worried, maybe, that I'll have to spend less time with you ...

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

Maybe a little less, if she wants to go out with me. *tickles lightly, and steals the glass*

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

*eep -- ! squirms and clings* Well, I figured that --

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

*puts the glass aside to clingback* And it just depends. *ticklesmore* Maybe she just wants to be friends--

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

*eep! squirmsmore, and tries to catch his hands* We're friends --

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

*nope! catches Rey's hands instead, and blows a raspberry on his neck before kissing him there, laughingbreathless* What do you mean--?

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

*oh -- squeaks and arches helplessly, by now breathless, too* ... M-Maybe she won't want to share ... ?

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

*wriggles at that, still laughing and glad* I can have more than one friend--

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

*blushing* I'm being silly, aren't I?

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

Maybe a little silly. *lets him free to poke him lightly* But that's okay.

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

*gah -- holds him and rests his head against Horatio's chest*

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

*holdsback, stroking his hair and kissing the top of his head*

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

*a shiver the closer his fingers come to the scalp -- voice muffled* Sorry.

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

*may unconsciously trail his fingers down to stroke Rey's brow and cheek at that shiver* Don't be sorry. You didn't do anything wrong ...

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

*finally looks up at him, just trusting, soft, tilting his head to kiss and lick the pad of a finger, sweet and almost innocent* Okay.

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

*oh--his breath catches at that, and he leans down for another kiss, sweet and undemanding--*

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

*so glad of their kisses, still tasting a little of lemonade, mouth opening for him and everything tender, natural --*

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

*lightly smoothing a hand down Rey's chest; no suggestiveness in the gesture, but only contact, closeness to match the contented little whimper when lips part and permit a slow, deep kiss--*

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

*a gentle whimper in return and lost at the edge of their lips, his own hand curling at the back of Horatio's neck and cradling him close, warmed and warming, and soveryglad*

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

*and bathed in sunlight--Horatio smiles gently* You don't usually kiss me like this ... it's nice.

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry. You just ... *a half-startled laugh -- kisses his forehead* You look so ... beautiful right now.

[ay-my-lord.livejournal.com]

*beams* So do you. I love you, Rey.

[carpoftruth.livejournal.com]

*beams back* I love you, too.
