Room 209, Wednesday night

[can_be_more]

Aeryn is not waiting for anyone. She is studying. Really.

And maybe sometime soon she'll actually open a book.

John is totally just passing by. Totally. Honestly.

He stops in front of Aeryn's door and knocks quietly.

[can_be_more]

Aeryn gets up from her spot on the bed, does not rush because she is not going to rush. She's just not. And opens the door. Immediately trying not to smile. "Hi."

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Hi." Well, he is smiling. Like a dork. "I came back."

[can_be_more]

"Good," she says, stepping back to let him in. "I'd hate to think you didn't keep your word."

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

He smirks on his way past her and immediately flops onto her bed. "Wednesdays wear me out. Whatcha doin?"

[can_be_more]

"Studying," she tells him, pointing at the closed manual that never actually made it off her desk.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Studying hard, huh?" He grins and toes off his shoes. "Miss me?"

[can_be_more]

She walks over to the bed, and stays standing. "Why would I ever do a thing like that?"

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Because I'm cute?" Hey, she lefte herself wide open for that!

[can_be_more]

"I am never living that down," she mutters.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Probably not," he agrees. And grins up at her. "Am I still cute?"

[can_be_more]

She's smiling again with no idea why, and shrugs one shoulder.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"C'mere," he says and gestures her towards him.

[can_be_more]

She climbs onto the bed, moving towards him a little on her knees.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Can I stay here tonight?" he asks her as she's moving towards him.

[can_be_more]

She's actually a little surprised that she'd assumed he would anyway. "Of course," she answers.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

And when she's close enough, John sits up so he can kiss her lightly.

[can_be_more]

She kisses him back, lightly at first, running a hand over his arm.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Hm. Admit I'm cute one more time and I'll never bring it up again," he says against her lips.

[can_be_more]

Her hand's on the back of his neck now, and between kisses, she says, "I'm not sure I believe you."

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

He just keeps smiling and slides an arm around her waist. "Promise. Promise times two."

[can_be_more]

"Never again," she reminds him. And despite this, she still kisses his temple.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Promise," he repeats, tilting his head to kiss the underside of her throat.

[can_be_more]

She sighs a little, and says, "Okay."

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Okay," he repeats and grins up at her. "Let's hear it."

[can_be_more]

She just kisses him again. Not that the distraction thing has ever worked before.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

He pulls back but keeps his hands on her waist and touching skin. "No more kisses until you admit I'm cute."

[can_be_more]

"...Fine," she says, not moving at all. Why is she still smiling?

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

He's still smiling too. "So....?"

[can_be_more]

She answers that by playing with the hem of her shirt. "How was your day?" she teases.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Did I mention I'm cute? Very cute. And I also have radio on Saturday with this knowledge of mine," he says with a sly smile.

[can_be_more]

She laughs at that. "Well, I know where I would be on Saturday. In the radio room, shooting the equipment."

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John tries to look incredulous but, instead, just wraps his arms around her and pulls so she falls towards him.

[can_be_more]

She falls against him, hand on his shoulder for balance. And moves her knee so that she's straddling him. And doesn't say a word.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

He just looks up at her and smiles.

"So. Now what're you planning on doing?"

[can_be_more]

She pulls away just a little, and pulls her shirt off over her head before kissing him.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Oh." That works for him. He pulls off his own shirt before sitting up to wrap his arms around her.

[can_be_more]

She sits back on her legs a little so she's closer, still kissing him. Because really, she's been waiting for this all day.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Pants are in the way," John mutters before moving down to kiss her neck and collarbones.

[can_be_more]

She undoes the button of his from where she's sitting right now. "Part way there," she sighs.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John does the same for her but he's able to do a little sliding of the pants off as he's got more room.

[can_be_more]

She gets back onto her knees to help the clothing removal, and presses against him to push him onto the mattress in getting her pants completely off.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

John slides easily to the mattress and looks up at her. "I love you," he murmurs because he does.

[can_be_more]

"I love you, too," she smiles, and kisses him again before she starts tugging his pants off.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

He lifts his hips in order to make her job easier and is already motioning her back up to him before she's even done.

[can_be_more]

She kisses her way back up his body, ending at his lips. And because she's happy and this is nice and she'd like to never ever hear it again, she murmurs, "Maybe a little cute."

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

That's good enough for him. Or, he thinks it is because his brain's currently offline and all he can feel is her. That's all he wants to feel.

"Show me how cute."

[can_be_more]

She starts by kissing him again.
