bakerstreet | Make a Move

[His shirt and her dress were left behind in favour of getting to the cave. This amount of flying she could do - especially over treetops instead of between them. Especially not at speed. But it was still enough to blow a little of the water off their skin by the time she placed them beside their goal. Green, big enough for two, and fabric covered. It was high quality, but even Kara had blushingly wondered if, if anything happened, it would stand up to them.]

[Probably not, but they could easily bunk down on top of whatever shattered remains were left.

They were partially dry by now, and he lifted a hand to finger her hair, lifting one brow at her.]

Guess you could save a ton on drying products...

[That hand moved to her face, finger trailing down her jaw to her chin.]

I really hope you're aware of how beautiful you are.

I-- I'm not anything spectacular. But you make me feel beautiful.

[The way he looked at her had given her not just pause but had shaken her a little from time to time - like she was the only woman in the world. And it wasn't the 'wow, Supergirl' look. That was enough to have her blushing all by itself.]

Yes, Kara. You are.

[He meant it. She was pretty much female perfection in the same way that her cousin was on the top tier of males. Everything went together perfectly, and it all just lit up when she smiled. Or blushed.]

I think I'm going to have to keep telling you that until you believe it.

Steve...

[His name was a quiet, helpless syllable as she stepped up to him, hands against his chest, and then up to his shoulders, arms around him. She wasn't sure what to say. Years of self-control were hard to undo, especially in just a span of days. But the way he made her feel was breathtaking.]

You are the sweetest, kindest, most wonderful, and most handsome man I've ever known. I could look into your eyes forever. And I wouldn't want you to let me go.

[He could feel that heat warm his cheeks a bit, but it faded when she touched him, when she looked up at him like that. His hand moved to stroke over her hair, the other sliding over her hip before settling on her back.]

I'm not feeling too inclined to have you go anywhere else right now.

[His voice may have dropped an octave, eyes flicking down to her lips before he moved in and stole a kiss. He could kiss her for hours and never get tired of it.]

[Kara's eyes closed and she met him halfway. She could be so feminine with him, and it felt good. Felt like happiness, honestly, and... And she sighed contentedly as she kissed him, head tipped just so, her belly against his and what a feeling that was. Skin to skin - especially skin she didn't bare very often at all. It was like every nerve in her skin was coming alive, and she was already so sensitive--

Oh. Oh, wow, she could feel his heartbeat everywhere they touched. Ohh wow.]

[She moved that little bit closer and he felt warm skin on his. It was different than a hand touching a hand, more intimate in how it felt, and he made a little sound, something that might have been a groan or a sigh as he tipped his head and let his lips part just a little. Just enough to let his tongue come out and see what she tasted like. To see if she tasted as good when he kissed her as her neck had.]

[She'd had a few boyfriends. None serious, but enough that, out of curiosity more than anything else, she'd learned the basics of kissing. When she felt Steve's lips part, when she felt his tongue against her lips, she opened them. Welcomed him. Her fingertips pressed against his shoulders and...

For once, she didn't float up. She let him be taller than her, let herself be smaller and slighter. But she was bold enough to touch her tongue to his and hopefully let him see that that was more than fine.]

[His hands on her tightened, the one at her back pressing her in as he felt a sudden bolt of sensation from the touch of her tongue. Kissing was great. He could kiss all day. Kissing with tongues? It just added a facet to it that it hadn't had before. It certainly upped the arousal factor, made it something more than just showing affection, more than just the press of two pairs of lips together. It was a breach of his body to hers, and hers to his, and damn him if he didn't want more.]

[Only one thing would make the kissing better - so Kara did it, her arms tightening around him just enough so she could lift them off the floor and lay them on the mattress that was there and waiting. She settled him on top of her. All the easier to make sure she could arrange them so they'd fit, and it was so natural for her thighs to be along his, for her hands to explore his back while their tongues explored and tested.

All of this, from here on, was a first for her. She'd kissed other men (boys, really), but never laying down. She'd touched other men, but never with this little clothing. But most importantly, she'd never meant it before.]

[He would, eventually, get used to the lifting and floating, but it still surprised him a little. Not so much that he stopped, not really. He felt them angle to a horizontal position, resting a hand on the mattress to keep him a bit above her. Not like she couldn't take his weight, but he wanted to see her still. And now that they'd moved, his other hand slid down along her side, feeling the side of her top before he felt warm skin under it.

This was all new to him, so he was hoping that if he crossed a line, or well before it, she'd let him know.]

[No lines crossed - just a little ticklish squirm and soft giggle as she looked up at him.]

Yes, even Kryptonians are ticklish in a few places.

[And she... Well, that hand down her side had definitely caught her body's attention. Her blush wasn't really in her face anymore. It was more of a blush of arousal, her chest having started to turn a little pink. Not quite as pink as her swimsuit, but pink all the same.]

I'll keep that in mind for future tickle fight references.

[He leaned in and gave her a quick peck on the lips before he looked down at her.]

Did you, ah... You seemed to like when I kissed your neck earlier. Would it be okay if I did that again?

I'd like that.

[She'd told him he was a gentleman, and he kept living up to the name. Her head tipped back - and her fingers traced a line down his spine, enjoying the natural curve.]

[He exhaled sharply at the touch, feeling goosebumps prick over him before he kissed her chin. Then down under it, all the way along the curve of her jaw and that pale throat until he got back to that spot he'd been nibbling on earlier. Since she hadn't minded the nibble last time, he let his teeth graze over her skin again, kissing down along it until he got to the strap of her bikini, then kissing over that to the curve of her shoulder.]

You taste like the ocean.

Mmmh, you do too. And like musk, and summer...

[Kara was almost sure she was melting under his attentions. Her fingers kept to their trail except, the more he kissed, she tended to shift to the light touch of her fingernails. That curve of the small of his back, just above his hips - that was addictive. She was making vague plans to kiss him there when she could. Kiss and lick and memorise the look of it while he had his shirt off.]

[He chuckled against her skin, looking over at her before he started that same back back. He'd found a spot he liked, just under her ear. He'd read that ears were sensitive and decided to test that out, tongue flicking out over her lobe before he let his teeth nibble gently at her.]

[The sound she made said it all. Soft, amazed - utterly pleasured. It seemed that spot did indeed do things to her. It was quite the discovery, even to her.]

Steve. Mm, now I have goosebumps everywhere...

[He was definitely noting that place for another later visit, smiling as he nibbled again before kissing just behind it.]

Is it bad that I like the sound of that?

I don't think so.

[What she did know was that she was very nearly shivering, her heart thumping and ... And even when she'd been a sneaky teenager, it hadn't felt like this. It was the magic, she guessed, of someone else touching her. It was so different, unexpected, more vivid than her own, and... And she wanted more of it.]

Please don't stop.

Not if you don't want me to.

[The hand at her side squeezed again, then added to what he was doing by gliding his fingers down to her thigh, just to see if that was on the 'okay' list, before moving it back up. He liked the way her waist dipped in that little bit, how her ribcage made it flare out again as he went a little further up. He stopped at the edge of the suit again, thumb stroking just along the edge of it as he continued to nip and kiss at that side of her neck --

until he got the bright idea to move his way to the other side.]

[She didn't stop him. She trembled just a little at how his touch went through her, making her gasp and hold on to him more tightly - just a bit, just enough to really feel him against her. It was funny how he had become the focus of all her temptation. She'd thought about this sometimes, about what it'd feel like to have him so close, about him touching her and kissing her, and her touching and kissing back.

What she hadn't been able to anticipate was how it made her catch her breath, how it distracted her from the veritable catalog of things she'd thought of to try with him. Those were, for now, long gone in favour of moaning when Steve kissed the skin at the other side. That just felt too, too good.]

[Each reaction he got from her just made him want to keep getting more. The way she shivered, that little sound she made, the tighter grip... oh, he liked that. Of course, he was only human, and there were things that human males did that caused certain reactions that were pretty much unavoidable. Hearing her like that was starting to crank the arousal factor up enough that he could feel a reaction a little lower down. He shifted a little to try to avoid doing something crass, like nudging at her with his hips. He was more than happy to keep the focus on her for now.]

[She'd felt... a little of that. Enough to feel a little proud of herself for causing it. She stroked both hands up his back, up to squeeze his shoulders and get his attention. They were... progressing. And some things she really did understand. That was why she said--]

It's okay. Lay against me if you want to.

[She honestly kind of wanted him to, but she knew he was new to this, too. And both of them were at least a little shy. It would be better if it was up to him.]

Apologies for the delay. Suddenly, I have icons!
