"What would you want...?" Kwannon inquired, violet eyes holding his own, albeit with a hint of fire and intrigue.
This was certainly an interesting game they were playing.
โ I missed having ya around. Been so boring with you! โ He smiled at her, placing his glass back down on the table.
Leaning in closer, biting down on his bottom lip.
โ Maybe I couldโฆ what would I get in return for helping you out? โ
"Even if you were, very little gets past me," she replied, tapping her temple before picking up her own glass.
She sipped at it and leaned over slightly, resting against him.
"Maybe you could teach me," she mused, "to be a little more... expressive."
Scooting closer to her after noticing her hand tapping a spot on the sofa. Resting his arm on the headrest, sipping on the wine.
โ Iโm not the greatest at hiding how I feel. โ He chuckled. โ Well, Iโm glad that you came to see little olโ me. โ
Her focus was, presently, on him now that he'd joined her. She offered him a faint, albeit lopsided, grin at his response.
"I worried that might be the case," she teased, "so I came to see you as soon as I was able."
She patted the spot next to her.
After leading her to the sofa and sitting her down, he would dip to the kitchen โ pouring both of them a drink of red wine. Returning with the glasses, placing them on a table in front. His eyes locked on her.
โ Iโve been well... I missed ya. โ
She squeezed his hand affectionately, allowing him to guide her throughout the rest of his home. She took a seat when offered, and it was only then that she realized how exhausted her body was from the journey.
"Tell me: have you been well...?"
Eyes opening, pulling back and licking his lips. There was so much affection in his eyes that he held for her.
Gently taking her hand before leading her further into his home.
โ Of courseโฆ Stay as long as you need. โ
She pulled back shortly after initiating; not wanting to overwhelm him with her affection.
Slowly, violet eyes fluttered open once more to behold his features.
"May I stay?" she inquired softly. "For a few days?"
He could smell, even taste, the perfume she had on which sent him back. His arms would wrap around her waist, keeping her close to him.
Eyes closing slowly as her lips pressed against his own. Humming softly.
She was content to lean against his features for a time, refamiliarizing herself with the sensation of him... for a time, anyway.
Before long, she gave in to a long-overdue impulse and touched her lips to his.
He leaned in closer to her, pressing his head against her own. A soft sigh escaping his lips.
โ I canโt help myself, love! You deserve all the praise from me. โ A grin forming on his face.
There was a loving look in his eyes.
She let out a soft chuckle and shook her head slightly, her thumb trailing over his cheekbone.
"You know, I didn't come all this way for flattery," she teased, "although I won't complain."
In truth, she had missed him. Considerably.
Biting down on his bottom lip, his cheeks turning to a darker shade of red. His eyes locked on her own.
Eyes closing, soft purring as her hand was placed upon his cheek. Tail wagging.
โ I havenโt forgotten how beautiful you are. โ He would tease back.
A secretive half-grin from her was his reward for his quick wit. She turned to face him more fully, the faintest shade of pink dusting her features.
A few steps saw her draw closer, her hand coming to rest upon his face.
"I'd nearly forgotten how clever you are," she teased.
All that matters to him is she has returned to his life safe and sound, better than her disappearing or worse โฆ He plans on cherishing the moment he had with her.
โ I think itโs even more lovely now that youโre here. โ A wink.
She would certainly welcome being held by him, but she understands if he's hesitant after such a lengthy absence; her mission had taken her to some rather unexpected places.
"Your home is lovely," she remarked.
Been quite some time since he last saw her. He has missed her for quite some time, she always was nice to be around. Tail beginning to flick.
He purrs at the feeling of her touch on his shoulder. He wanted to hold her in his arms but resisted it for now.
She'd come quite a long way, and a single glance at her moonlit gaze would convey her appreciation at his hospitality.
A soft squeeze to his shoulder preceded her entering the home with a gentle grace, sharp eyes taking in the details.
Although it's his company she craves more than anything else, she's very curious to know how he'd look in a suit . . . so she will not protest, just this once.
Perfect. Heโll find his best suit then โฆ wanting to match how stunning she looks in her dress. It would be their first and it has him very excited.
