chase the morning

EVEREST

Breathing through his mouth to try and restore some oxygen to his brain, Everest finds himself blinking away stars that seem to settle in his fingertips where Isla's lips kiss them. "Oh?" Puzzled if only because he'd just been in some nowhere liminal space of pleasure and now he was gazing down at Isla, the aviator hmmmm'd at her fact with a slow smile. "I suppose now the phrase I'd die a thousand deaths makes a bit more sense." He chuckles, before sweetly pressing a kiss against her shoulder and vaguely wondering if telling her that he loved her would be out of place.

"The only credit I will take comes from you being an excellent teacher." He argues with a slight tilt of his head. Though his body was thoroughly spent, gods if he didn't still want more of Isla somehow. "I couldn't have asked for more." Ever adds, pressing another kiss to her shoulder. "Nor could I have done more, I don't think." He adds, laughing softly against her skin.

Taking a deep breath and letting it out, the aviator gives his head a little shake. "I feel like I could stay here forever, but...am I keeping you from anything?" He hoped not, but then he'd understand if he was. This had all just sort of happened, and Ever wouldn't be surprised if Isla's schedule could only handle so many random interruptions in a day.
