Zavien
One second, he was bracing himself to keep the kiss brief, to control any wayward thoughts or wandering hands. The next, his lips were on hers, all thoughts of reason and previous good intentions somehow finding an escape hatch from his mind. What was it about her that convinced his brain thinking was an unnecessary burden rather than a vital requirement for life?
The moment they connected and Soh offered the same level of intensity and restraint, Zavien knew they were in trouble. 'A moment' would quickly turn into more, 'a kiss' turning into the starting line rather than the destination. He vaguely understood why he should probably stop, why he'd convinced himself that having sex would complicate things or undermine any words he might say, but that argument was beginning to sound like a warped stereo on its way to a thrift shop.
He slowly gave in to the kiss, the gentle tenderness growing heated with an underlying passion he couldn't hide, one that grew with each passing second. Even if they stopped now and resumed what was supposed to be a card game, Zavien wasn't sure he'd be able to focus on anything but the warm taste of her lips on his or the feel of her hair tangling into his fingers or the distinct awareness he had of her, of the insatiable desire to have and give her everything.
