Yeah, you've always been shit at faith. [ henley on the other hand is a professional at leaps of faith, you kind of have to be when your job involves relying on other people to catch you when you fall from a giant bubble. ]

If it helps, I'm not the same girl, either.

[the_lovers]

I'm better at it than McKinney? [at least he wasn't all I'M GETTING DRUNK AND MAYBE JUMPING SHIP when the FBI showed up at the apartment to arrest them] But yeah, I -- okay, yeah. We're different people, now. Go team. [he punches the air. rah-rah] Or whatever.

[yeah, he's still terrified, thank you. he's trying, as is evidenced by them having this conversation in the first place, but]

[threeminutes]

[ she rolls her eyes, sliding her arms to press her hands to either side of his neck. ]

You know I was a cheerleader, don't you..? [ her smile slips into smirk territory, decidedly flirtatious. ] Come on, I'm looking for a headline, Atlas. Gimme a headline.

[ let's make out, son. ]

[the_lovers]

[he exhales through his nose, puts on a mirroring smirk, feigned at first but gaining more of a foothold in reality as the seconds tick by, and arches his eyebrows]

Yeah, that I definitely remember.

[that said, he shrugs -- then shrugs again, as if to say well, if you insist, and leans in to kiss her. it's not chaste thing, either, hands moving to her hips, his mouth lingering and almost desperate on hers. yeah, all those staring people? they're definitely getting an eyeful]

[ladymoneta]

[ her arms spindle around his neck again, keeping herself firmly pressed against him. idly she thinks she hears merritt or jack or someone shout "finally!" but she also thinks she's probably imagining it in the midst of her cinderella moment.

she does not imagine the spotlight, but she definitely ignores it. she has an entire year of sexual frustration to get out. ]

[the_lovers]

[if she's imagining it, so is he, so. it probably actually happened. it was probably also Jack, because he's a puppy. Daniel ignores it, too, however, and continues to kiss her fervently. when he finally pulls away, it's only so he can catch his breath]

So? Good start? Maybe?

[threeminutes]

[ oh look, dylan, you're not the only person that can leave henley speechless. she nods mutely, abruptly dropping off her tiptoes. definitely a good start, great start even. very, very good start. she makes a noise that could be "uh-huh" if she weren't just completely fuckstruck. ]

[the_lovers]

Okay. [that's very helpful, Henley, thank you] I'm just gonna take that as a yes. [and try not to look too satisfied with himself, for fear of ruining the moment] And maybe do it again?

[threeminutes]

[ her head bobs in a nod before she gets control of herself. ] Yes, yeah. Sure. [ which is all that precedes her kissing him again. ]

[the_lovers]

[he smiles a little, pleased in spite of himself, maybe, and leans to meet her in another kiss. he'll let her break this one]

[threeminutes]

[ well, that's never going to happen tbh so hopefully he knows how to breathe through his nose. ]

[the_lovers]

[that only works for so long, unfortunately. that in mind, despite his intent to let her be the first one to pull away, this time, it's him that ends up breaking the kiss in the end. this time, he looks unabashedly smug]

Yeah, we're definitely gonna end up on the gossip page, tomorrow.

[and he's totally okay with this. this has been a good turn of events]
