The Intimacy Meme

(Shamelessly taken from... all the rest and modified!)

Intimacy is the glue of any relationship, albeit romantic or friendship. It's getting to the root of humanity, and expanding upon ourselves and letting others in.

Rules:
1. Post with your character.
2. Go to rng and roll from 1-6.
3. Post to others.
4. Profit

Scenes:
1. First Kiss. Maybe you've been harboring feelings or maybe this is random. But it feels good to be that close to someone.

2. Love Confession. You have been head over heels for this person and now it's time to try and get close to them.

3. Secrets. You've been hiding yourself from someone and now it's time to stop. They need to know the real you.

4. First Time. First time you have sex is always nerve racking, but it's in these moments that you show how much you truly care about someone.

5. Shower. Perhaps you've been together for awhile. Maybe you've told each other everything. Maybe you're just dirty and need to get cleaned up. But letting the water flow between two people is still pretty intimate.

6. Post-Coital Bed. Do you feel talkative after sex? Want to ponder the meaning of life / if you guys are more than a one-night stand? Better to do it after the deed probably.. at least your partner will be in a good mood?

7. Road Trip. Good for that bonding experiance you never had! Bad diner food and weird landmarks you never knew you wanted to see! Will it bring you closer to your friend / lover?

8. Drunk. Are you the happy or sad kind? Clingy, or flighty? Maybe you just need a hug, to snuggle close.. to whoever's around at the time!

9. Winter. What could be a better time to curl up with a book, or exchange soft words in the glow of the fire? Hot chocolate time!

10. Free verse. Did I leave something out? Want to combine? Make up your own or pick from the others.

"I will," she said. "Same number?"

He nodded again. "I'll see you around, then. And thanks."

"You're welcome," she said. "And try to stay out of trouble."

He gave her a wolfish grin. "Now where's the fun in that?"

She rolled her eyes but smiled before reach up to give his good side a hug.

"Be safe Eames," she said.

"I will," he kissed her cheek before leaving.

She closed and locked the door behind him with a sigh before going to shut off the lights in the apartment.

She went to use the bathroom before heading back to bed.

When she came back to her bedroom, John was sitting up in bed, waiting for her.

She looked at him tiredly.

"I'm sorry," she said as she sat down on her side of the bed, pressing a hand to her eye. "Things like that don't usually happen."

He nodded and then slid down the bed, pulling the blankets over his head.

She sighed and looked over at him.

"John..." she started, not sure what else to say.

"Shit, Eames," she whispered under her breath to herself as she got under the covers and laid down.

"You don't have to explain," he mumbled. "I understand."

"There's not much to understand," she said. "Eames and I work the same jobs sometimes. He was on the first job I ever did actually.

"We take care of each other in this business."

"Okay," he said quietly.

"...I don't even know what I'm feeling at the moment. I'm sorry."

"It's okay," she said turning on her side to face him. "Are you mad at me?"

"I guess not," he mumbled.

She sighed.

"I'm sorry Eames is so...Eames," she said. "He likes to push people's buttons."

"Got me figured out in a second, huh?"

"That's what he does best," she said. "It's kinda his job. But he doesn't have you figured out. He only thinks he does."

He was quiet for a moment before speaking again. "Are you only dating me because I look like this Arthur guy?"

"What!? No. John..." she said. "Look at me. You're nothing like him. Aside from looks. Like I said, Eames likes to push people's buttons and when he realized who you weren't, he found a big one to poke right at."

He didn't roll over. "But you said you're attracted to him."

She sighed.

"Yeah, I was," she said. "He's a good looking man. But that's all. It was never anything more."

"Okay," he mumbled, "I believe you."

"I love you," she assured him. "I only want to be with you."
