Pete couldn’t help but lean into those touches, eyes closing softly every now and again.
“ I uh— I have a rigorous hair routine I follow. “ Of all the things he took care of, his hair was at the top of his list for sure.
While she was growing more confident in showing him affection it was adorable to watch him grow so flustered — she simply can't help herself .
" Your hair is surprisingly soft ... " Amara mumbled , twirling strands inbetween her fingers .
“ No problem, I’m more than happy to have you with me. “
Petes home had been empty for so long besides cats that he took care of, having her there would really make it feel like a home.
“ Makes me ecstatic actually. “
Probably for the best definitely.
Another squeeze of the hand - they both seemed nervous to explain things it seems. Her new home couldn’t come fast enough 💧
“Thank you, by the way. This - is definitely the first i’ve moved in with someone.”
@CHIVALEWD —years, heart continuing to thump away at his ribcage, a symptom of his adoration. Arms wrap around her, desperately leaning into her as much as he physically could. He was drunk on her love and he wanted to go even further.
@CHIVALEWD It was only natural given all of their time before their gap apart. They’d been able to go for hours on end before, only natural that they’d want to reach that same point before after the deprivation of one another.
He’d kiss as if his lips hadn’t touched her own in a hundred—
@SH0ULDNTBEHERE “ hell, i doubt i’ll even see them again. you’ll be fine. “
the city was bigger than either of them really could ever imagine, hundreds of thousands of people living their lives around them.
“ just have fun, won’t be that bad. “
“ i’m . . working on that. “
pete kinda bottle it up, cause he thought he needed to be ready for anything, which is partially true but— it starts to eat away after a while.
"i'm comfortable doing it in the right areas."
he has a lot going on in his life that if he didn't cry every once and a while, he feels he'd be in a rough place.
And that familiar blush dusted his face, glancing away from her with a small huff.
“ Whatcha . . whatcha up to? “ Still trying to act so nonchalant as if they hadn’t showed affection for each other.
Amara sat on @ofhisoptimism's lap as if she had always belonged there .
Her palm resting on his chest , her other hand playing with his hair to pass the time .
“ Isn’t that the truth. “
A slightly nervous chuckle, heart racing at the thought of telling her everything.
“ I’d rather wait until we’re comfy, all things considered. “ He’d imagine that they both have pretty heavy topics to discuss so . . probably for the best.
“Well if we are trauma bonding its a good thing I brought the drinks.
There’s something important you should definitely know as well.”
Extremely important.
She did give his hand a reassuring squeeze.
“Do you want to start here or when we are back home.”
@exticflower “ face. down. ass. up. “
the spider growled out, stepping closer to tangle his hands into hair. the look in his eyes deadly serious, though face was still red. “ make me ask again and your punishment will be so much worse. “ pete was already planning out a night of overstimming—
@PrettyBoyCity “ I dunno if I’d call it that, I just . . . I wanna help people if I can. That’s about it really. “
Though one could maybe consider that an agenda of sorts. Lenses widened and eyes narrowed at the sound of his codename.
“ Yeah . . painfully familiar. “
@SH0ULDNTBEHERE “ neither do i, at least not as often as it seems. just . . don’t take it too seriously. karaoke is a place to embarrass yourself along with everyone else so it’s like it never happened. “
that’s the way he saw it at least, or maybe it was just a way to cope.
@lokibiter “ Yeah, like . . thirty minutes. “
Pete liked the sound of that, cause his body felt damn near numb at this point, he’d simply relaxed too much now that they were laid down and holding one another.
@QueenOfBites And that alone returned the blush from before only tenfold, chuckling at the excited exclamation.
“ I’m— I’m definitely fine with that. Be good to have something to talk about over dinner. “ Though stuffing their faces first then talking wouldn’t have been a bad choice either.
