[She nods, but only a little; this is nice, it feels good, their heads resting together, breaths commingling. His hands are still on her too, making her really disinclined to move.]

...Yeah. Wow.

[After a moment, she leans in closer, resting against him, letting him hold her.]
aviophobia: (things that rule: reassurance)

[He pulls her closer, arms wrapping around her. She fits in his arms, tucked against him, and it occurs to him, as it does sometimes, how small she is. It's great to kiss her, but it's pretty damned good just to hold her, too.]
gotbottle: (hug glomp)

[personal profile] gotbottle 2013-01-26 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[This feels good, too. His body is warm and solid, and his arms are strong, but he holds her with care. There's something about him that makes her feel safe, and she likes it. A lot.

She closes her eyes, quietly curling into him, sliding her arms around him and holding him close in return.]
aviophobia: (things that suck: ...what)

[personal profile] aviophobia 2013-01-27 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Quietly, he murmurs into her hair:]

You wanna go?

[And then, because that sounds bad:]

I mean, not back to one of our places, necessarily. We could go eat, too.
gotbottle: (doting)

[personal profile] gotbottle 2013-01-27 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
[She hums, soft and contented, drawing back just far enough to look up at him.]

I could eat. But will anything still be open?

Though I've gotten pizzas delivered later than this. My place? I can get one delivered.

[Because, yeah, from a lot of other guys, suggesting they leave might've been presumptuous or sketchy, but she trusts him. She knows he's not asking because he expects anything.]
aviophobia: (things that suck: ...*jim*)

[personal profile] aviophobia 2013-01-28 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Sure. I could go for a pizza. Thanks.

[He turns to go, then pauses.]

You drive?
gotbottle: (hand to chest)

[personal profile] gotbottle 2013-01-28 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
[She shakes her head.]

No, I knew I'd have a few drinks, so I took a cab over. I was planning to take one back.
aviophobia: (things that suck: waiting for an outcome)

[personal profile] aviophobia 2013-01-29 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, me too. Look at us, being all responsible. I'm kind of impressed.
gotbottle: (amused)

[personal profile] gotbottle 2013-01-29 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
If you're impressed now, buddy, wait 'till I order you a pizza. I have a gift for it.

Come on. Let's get outside and you can impress me by hailing us a cab.
aviophobia: (things that rule: being a badass)

[personal profile] aviophobia 2013-01-31 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Watch me, I'm a goddamned pro.

[They get outside and he hails a cab Like a Boss, even opens the door for Rachel and waits until she get in before he follows.]
gotbottle: (might be flirting)

[personal profile] gotbottle 2013-01-31 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
Color me very impressed, Doctor McCoy.

[Especially that last bit, with him holding the door and letting her get in first.

She gives the driver her address. She fishes around in her bag and comes out with her phone, tapping away on the screen.]


What do you like on your pizza?
aviophobia: (things that rule: hyposprays)

[personal profile] aviophobia 2013-02-03 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[He peers over her shoulder, watching her work.]

Sausage and green peppers. That okay?
gotbottle: (hands)

[personal profile] gotbottle 2013-02-03 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds good to me.

[There's a bit more tapping at this handy app her favored pizza place provided, and then she tucks the phone away, smiling.]

We ought to just beat the delivery guy there, provided traffic isn't too much of a mess.
aviophobia: (things that suck: ...*jim*)

[personal profile] aviophobia 2013-02-07 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
What time is it?

[He checks the time on the display of the taxi's dash, squinting a little.]

We should be okay. It's only ten after. People are still making out.
gotbottle: (classy)

[personal profile] gotbottle 2013-02-07 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
Some people are.

[She says, oh so playfully, slipping her arm through his again and resting her cheek against his shoulder.]
aviophobia: (things that suck: poised on the edge)

[personal profile] aviophobia 2013-02-09 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
We can make out, if you want. I'm not opposed.
gotbottle: (expectant grin)

[personal profile] gotbottle 2013-02-10 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. Well, in that case...

[She uses her hold on his arm to drag him down closer, so she can plant a kiss on his mouth.]
aviophobia: (things that suck: needing a moment)

[personal profile] aviophobia 2013-02-16 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, it's only polite to let the lady go first.

Or something.

Kissing.

He's glad to be pulled down and kisses her in return, hands finding a place to rest on her hips.]
gotbottle: (kiss heated)

[personal profile] gotbottle 2013-02-16 08:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh, so now they're kind of sort of making out in the back of a cab. Unexpected, but awesome. She's got no objections, and she underscores that point by sliding her hands into his hair, tilting her head a little to deepen the kiss.]
