Your move

He needed to go, just as he had once needed to go when Loren had him corned against a wall, and when Ianto had said he'd like to spend his evening hours kissing Remi. He needed to go, because for once, it wasn't a law he was going to break, but a heart.

He needed to go because if he didn't, he wouldn't be able to stop. He didn't want to, and that was precisely the problem. Willpower was once something Remi had in spades. But now? Now the world had taken so much from him, and he found it all too easy to want to cling to the things that he had left.

Eyes closed, Ronin's touch came as a slight surprise, causing the alchemist to draw in a swift breath and open his eyes. But all he saw in the darkness of the room was Ronin's blue gaze and then—

—it all went dark, because Remi was kissing Ronin back. Unbidden a hand went into the ex-captain's hair, curling there and somehow both pulling him near and holding him at bay. Fireworks sparked as bright and hot as any Remi had made for Ronin's training exercises, and as Ronin pulled back Remi was merely left gasping in the wake of the hunter's lips. Eyes still closed, the hand in Ronin's hair trembled with the inward battle raging in the alchemist; to stay, or to go?

"You know I do not want to go." Remi whispered, his forehead against Ronin's, toes curling with indecision. "But..." Inhaling a staggered breath, all Remi could smell and taste was Ronin, and it made his senses blur. "..Ianto.." He managed, the hand in Ronin's hair tightening. "I should.." go. "I won't be able to make myself stop—"

But his hand stayed, and for a moment, so did the rest of Remi.
