just a moment to hold

REMI

the lullaby

there's a light that you give me
when I'm in shadow

It's worse, the way she kisses him softly. It leaves him forced to follow suit, wanting more—everything—and yet being tugged along with a single strand of thread. Melting into his lap, Remi tries to hide the way his breath hitches and studders in his throat, his eyes rolling up and back slightly through half-closed lashes. Fingers dropping, his hands work to spread out the bottom of her dress around them as if wanting to perfect the image of her atop him; really, it was an obvious excuse for his hands to slip over her thighs, if only briefly.

You, she whispers, and for a moment Remi wonders if it wasn't an accusation. She explains in half-said thoughts, but he finds himself nodding just the same. He'd gone too far, said too much. "No, and it isn't." It isn't a thing. It wasn't anything. It couldn't be. "It...just kiss me." Small as she is in his arms and with a nauseating about of strength, it takes no effort at all for him to hold her against him, leaning back slowly until his head is against the grass and his arms are tugging her against him.

there's a feeling you give me, an everglow
