Eggs. [Sima]

[Deleted]

Lilith sighed when they finished, coming out of her trance. She'd loved it, every single second of it. She sat up, stretching, and taking Sima's hand, allowing him to help her to her feet. She nodded at his question, and skipped along side him for a moment, before taking hold of his hand and falling into pace with him. She looked around, but it had gorton much darker, so she couldn't see that far away. People were leaving, and it was quite quiet now, but she didn't mind. When he asked if she'd enjoyed herself, she turned to face him, a big grin on her face and she nodded fiercely.

I'll admit, it was the most fun I've have in quite a long time- oh! And those fireworks, I still can't believe how beautiful they were! She spoke with a tone of awe, remembering them clearly. She stayed close to him as they walked, their shoulders brushing every so often, and she felt a slight tension as they walked- nothing big, but it was an awkwardness she knew would go away. It was just a feeling they had. Upon his next question, her ears lit up like christmas lights and her eyes widened considerably.

Why-why would you ask that? her voice shook slightly, concerned as to why he'd asked. Was she as bad at kissing at she'd previously guessed? Or was it her constant awkwardness that gave it away? After a moment of fretting and her mind running while, she exhaled and nodded solemnly.

Um. Yeah. You are. First kiss, first anything actually- including first friend...well in a long time anyway. She let out a slightly sad laugh, her face still pink and she averted her eyes from his at they walked.

[Sima Oratio]

Sima looked at Lilith as she became so flustered at the question. "I just asked, because I was curious. Also it helps to know if you've had some bad boyfriend from before, so I can keep my eyes out for him." Sima laughed slightly at his joke. Sima was surprised to say the least that he was her first anything. "Well, I just hope that I can be your last anything." Knowing that he was her first anything was romantic in a way, but it also filled him with worried. Most people did not stay with their first mate, and, this meant statistically that Sima's chances of what he expected from a relationship changed slightly.

Perhaps Sima was a different kind of thinker, but when he cared for someone he intended to stay with them. "Well, they say that your partner should be your best friend, and I certainly think you could be both those things." Sima smiled, glad that the darkness hid actually how embarrassed he was to say that. 

The walk took quite a bit of time, but they eventually made it back to the house. Sima waited outside the door, awaiting Lilith to unlock it. He could definently say that he was tired, and he wanted to get into bed as soon as possible, but he couldn't imagine how tired Lilith was, unlike Sima, she did not travel every day. "Lilith," Sima spoke her name for no reason other then that he could, and that he could use it as a way to check up on her. He realized that Lilith, and him, would both be very sore tomorrow.    

[Deleted]

She calmed down considerably at his response. He didn’t tease her about it, he was simply curious- it eased a lot of her worries. She was looking down until he said he hoped to be her last anything, and once again she felt that fluttering in her abdomen. What was that? She looked up at him, smiling, and blushing softly. So do I… She whispered, not able to make her voice any higher in that moment. She was answering both comments, the first and the one of them being best friends as well as partners. She meant them both, and loved that he’d said it.

By the time they arrived back home, Lilith’s legs felt sore and wobbly, like they could not longer hold her. She shuffled to the door, and unlocked it for the waiting Sima, and entered, immediately flopping onto the couch-yea, she was really happy Sima got her to get one. She faintly heard her name being spoken, so she sat up and scooted to the far corner of the couch, making room for him, while facing him.

Sima. She spoke in the same tone he had- not wanting anything, not asking anything, just saying his name to say it. She rather understood why he used her name often, saying his as often as she had. She didn’t come to the same realization he did, of being sore in the morning, as she was still focused on now, and how much fun they had had. She smiled at him, and waiting for him to sit with her.

[Sima Oratio]

Sima looked at Lilith, double checking that the door was in fact locked behind him. He was glad that they were home, however was confused. Were they not heading to the bed? It was much more comfortable then the couch no? Sima moved over to the couch and sat down beside her. "Is their something you want to talk about?" Sima asked her curiously. yet you could tell he was rather tired. He got the feeling she wanted to discuss something by not heading immediately to bed. Sima wanted to flop on that bed and just pass right out, of course if Lilith wanted to stay up for a little and chat he wasn't going to hold it against her. 

"It gets quite cold around this time. You really want me to sleep on the couch?" After a minute of tired thinking he had got the idea that Lilith was kicking him to the couch, it made sense in a way now that they were officially romantically involved, and she could feel a little different about the situation, but like anyone would, Sima enjoyed the warmth that both the bed, and Lilith provided, and he wanted to stay. "I'll make you breakfast, and I'll make sure the house is warm before you even get up I swear!" Sima almost pleaded for that spot back on the bed, he was so convinced she was kicking him to the couch, I guess that was a negative, being able to be kicked to the couch, at least it was not the curb. 

"I'll make sure to include strawberries, I know strawberry syrup, I can make that, with pancakes what do you think?" 

[Deleted]

Lilith gave him a funny look, confused, when she burst out laughing. He thought she was making him sleep on the couch? He must be crazy! She could never do that to him! Why make him sleep on the couch now, after a whole month? She continued to laugh, hard enough she rolled herself off of the couch entirely, landing on her bottom with a thud. It certainly ceased her laughing, almost. She muttered an ow, still catching her breath. She looked at him smiling, shaking her head.

Sima, you're not sleeping on the couch! I just flopped here, and thought you'd want to sit with me for a moment after all the walking. I didn't realize you were so tired. She stood taking his hand and leading them to the bed. But you should probably take off the fancy clothes- wrinkles will kill them. I'm doing the same. She shrugged and grabbed her pjs heading to the bathroom, leaving a sleepy Sima on the bed.

Once she emerged, she fell on the bed, wrapping her arms around him so he fell with her.

I had a lot of fun today. Thank you.

[Sima Oratio]

Sima watched her laugh so hysterically about what he thought. "I'm just tired.." He muttered under his breath. When she grabbed his hand and pulled him to the bed, he was ready to just flop down and go to sleep, however there went Lilith advising him to remove his clothing. Sima was a little suprised when Lilith said she would do the same thing, she would sleep in her underwear too? He thought to himself, that was a first. Sima removed his clothing and tossed it on the floor, kicking it slightly under the bed. Sima removed his shirt as well, then was beginning to get ready to get under the covers, however this process was stopped as he was blind sided by the flying Lilith.  He wasn't sure what had happened, but he now was half-naked with a pajamma'd Lilith on top of him, not to say that there was nothing wrong with this.

He looked into her eyes curiously, yet he was still tired, having trouble staying up. Sima wrapped his arms around her, and spoke gently. "You shoul.. take.. o. bed." Sima muttered trying to stay awake, he attempted to move to change her position, so that he could comfortable wrap his arms around her while he slept, to tired to care if she was uncomfortable about this, and after that Sima would fall quickly to sleep. 

[Deleted]

Lilith giggled and repositioned herself next to him. He'd already passed out. Poor Sima, he was exhausted, not to say she wasn't. She kept his arms around her, and cuddled close to him before closing her eyes and falling asleep. It was basically morning after the walk, but sleeping in really couldn't hurt. She snuggled her face into her pillow and was out like a light, her dreams filled with the days events, smiling in her sleep.

[Sima Oratio]

Sima woke up, unaware of the time. He laid in the bed, usually rather cold in the morning. He however had someone to thank for his warmth. Lilith Harmonia. Sima kept her close, even in his sleep. Upon waking up he had a hard time keeping himself from staying close to he, in fact he was probably a little too comfortable so close. Sima pulled his hands around her waist, pulling her as close as he could get. He then kissed her neck rather attractively. "Good morning," Sima paused for a moment, this was not the right context, why was he so comfortable around Lilith? He swore it seemed like he was coming on way too strong, but that was not his intention, and he didn't want that to be his intention. Sima got up out of bed rather quickly, and coughed once in his embarrassment. "I'm uhm, sorry, that was inappropriate." Sima got out of bed and then retired to the kitchen, yes in his underwear. It was rather chilly, but as soon as he fired up a source of heat, things slowly started to get better. 

As predicted Sima was sore, but he still desired to make Lilith those pancakes he was peaking of earlier. 

[Deleted]

Lilith had slept wonderfully. When she started to stir, she had the feeling it was late morning, early afternoon. She felt something warm on her neck, something soft and delicate. It felt wonderful, and kind of tickled all at the same time. She felt the stirring in her stomach yet again. What was this feeling on her neck? Slowly she opened her eyes, and let out a delicate yawn, ending in a soft squeak. The warmth she felt around her waist in her sleep had left her, as had the warmth against her back. It was so comfortable, why did he leave? She was still more than half a sleep, and had heard what Sima had said, but in her sleep state she did not agree.

She could see that he had heated up the oven, but she didn't care. She wanted him to lay back down and keep her warm.

Siiiiiiiiiimmmmaaaaa! Come back! She pouted lightly and waited for a moment, before getting up, not liking it at all, and shuffling to the kitchen. She yawned, still not awake, and stood behind Sima for a moment. She then proceeded to take his hand and tug him all the way back to the bed where she laid back down and urged him to do the same.

Why did you leave me? It was so warm... She voice was soft, slow, and croaky. Not at all awake. She sounded like a small child, whining that they didn't want to get up. Well she didn't and she didn't want him to either.

[Sima Oratio]

Sima heard Lilith coming back, and was thoroughly confused. Had she not noticed what he had done in the morning? Was she okay with his behavior. Regardlesss when she came back asking him to return to bed Sima was happy to do so. "Ok, Ok" Sima gave himself enough time to make sure everything was set up properly as to not burn down the house. Sima followed Lilith back to bed, rather surprised how outgoing she was being. Sima then followed her back to bed, getting up under the covers, looking at Lilith curiously as she did so as well. He clambered into the bed, and wrapped his arms around Lilith once again, making sure that was little to no space between them. He pressed his body against her, feeling the warmth under the blankets. "Lilith?" He asked curiously. 

"Were you mad I left the bed?" He wondered curiously. Sima kept his hands comfortably at her waist line, looking at her, at least from what he could see from under her hair. 

[Deleted]

Lilith settled in, getting comfortable. Her warmth was back and she snuggled against it happily. If she were completely awake, she wouldn't dream of doing what she had, though she would wish she could. She held onto Simas hand around her waist, and leaned into him. She was happy he so easily came back with her, but she wasn't thinking much of it, to tired to notice little details. Yesterday had drained her, so she wouldn't be doing much today, aside from this and eating, and perhaps, if Sima was okay with it, back to this. Upon hearing his question, Lilith turned her head ever so slightly to glance at him, through wide, glazed eyes. She looked so goofy like this.

No... I wouldn't say I was mad. But you were keeping me warm, and I liked it. You can't leave. Not again. Her voice was soft, silly sounded, like a childs, but held a stern tone in the cutest way possible. She would not allow him to leave her. She liked having him this close to her. Once again, she snuggled close, but wanted to face him, so she moved his arm for a moment, to turn around, then placed it back over her, only now, he would be holding her back. She cuddled to him, putting one arm around him, to keep him there.

Mine. My warmth. Her words were soft spoken, and came out jumbled, barely words at all. Without really thinking - as she wasn't doing much of that this morning- she kissed his chest lightly before snuggling against him one last time, to get comfortable.

[Sima Oratio]

Sima waited for her to turn around, listening to her words. Sima felt her attitude was oddly energetic this morning. "I didn't want to leave," Sima looked into her eyes, it was rather calm. He was glad that she decided to face him, he didn't mind having his hands on hear bacl, in fact he liked the way her curves were, the way her form felt on his hands. "Mine, My warmth" Sima smiled at her little claims. "What would you do without me? You'd be shivering alone on a winter's night." Sima was trying to be playfully, but he realized that the way he worded that it could possibly hurt her feelings. "It's ok though, cause you do have me now." He pressed his lips against hers, a feeling almost unrecognizable filling his stomach. This was not the feeling of horror, worry, doubt, regret, that he previously had when becoming so romantically entangled with her, no, this was the feeling you got when you were in love with someone. 

Realizing this, Sima wanted to say it out loud. He was just that type of direct, however, he decided to hold onto the information, he could use it for another time, tell her when the time was right. Sima wasn't sure how exactly she was able to keep their relationship moving so fast, but it was an entertaining and confusing ride, something that made falling in love all over again worthwhile, despite the dangers. Sima found it interesting to feel her skin, so he tried to life her Pj's if ony slightly, to get a feeling of her skin. He wasn't going anywhere with this, he was simply feeling her smooth skin. 

[Deleted]

Good. Cause winter nights alone suck balls. She murmured against his chest, but looked up to smile at him when he leaned in to kiss her. In the back of her mind, she remembered how she'd gone from social anxiety, shyness, being alone, and tears, to having someone so amazing by her side, kissing her. But this was at the back of her mind. What she was focused on, was how amazing kissing him felt. Her loopy self thought it was wonderful, and tightened her hand against his back, feeling the heat of his skin against her fingers. She barely noticed him moving her shirt, but she paid no mind to it as he stopped with very little skin exposed- besides, the feeling of his hand against her bare back also felt very nice. She pulled away from the kiss to breathe, and moved her hand to brush hair out of his face- she really enjoyed doing that for some reason.

You're very warm Sima. Warm skin, warm personality, warm touch, and warm hearted. You're the best kind of person. She smiled softly and kissed the tip of his nose. She was simply muttering phrases she thought made sense, having no idea if the actually did- she just wanted to compliment him. She kept her hand resting on the back of his neck, and just gazed into his eyes now, staring into the endless sea of blue, and all the wonders it held for her. He was so wonderful to her, so caring, kind, selfless. She'd never met anyone like him before. Even friend she'd had in the past hadn't treated her as he did in such a short period of time. She knew she would have to think about how fast they were moving eventually, but right now she didn't want to. She wanted to enjoy this simple, and natural goofy moment, and all the feelings it brought to her heart. She loved being like this, loved having him around, loved waking up to him, love hi-. She blinked and smiled, keeping her thoughts to herself.

[Sima Oratio]

Sima could hear her every breath. It was like an addictive drug that he just couldn't put down. Sima couldn't but think of a future with someone like this, a future filled with happiness. "Lilith, when I hold you like this, I almost feel like nothing can separate us." Sima breathed in the chilly air, yet seemingly instantly warmed by the two's combined body heat. "It's an odd feeling, to have no home to return to, No family to care for you, " He held her tightly as if creating a sort of support. "I know you know how this feels to, and I just want you to know, if you wanted, I could be your family, I could be your friend. Sima spoke honestly, he spoke in such tense emotions because if he had not, he would be digging himself into a hole of a romantically charged morning, something he didn't know if Lilith, yet alone himself, was okay with. "I know I am many of these things, but I also want to be your lover.., if at all possible.. and I'm going to do these things because I care for you, " Sima rested his head shyly on the pillow, giving her direct eye contact.

"I can't promise that I will keep you safe, or always be financially secure, or even always be able to keep you laugh, but I can promise to try my hardest, even if it kills me, to try and accomplish those tasks.  Sima kept one hand around her waist, but removed one to grab one of Lilith's hand. "I can say all of this so freely because I know, I would be wondering alone, with no one, had I not met you, I would be stuck. " Sima sighed lightly, keeping himself from approaching Lilith more directly, in a physical way, 

"I guess, without beating around the bush, and I know it's rather quick to judge, but, I just don't know how to explain this feeling any other way than categorizing it as love.." Sima blushed rather heavily, unable to speak another honest word, but at least he got his mind off of desirable pleasures anyways, and was tackling something that helped gear his emotional stability. 

[Deleted]

Lilith agreed with Sima, and wanted nothing to separate them. She was cozy, happy, warm and loved- what more could a girl ask for? When Sima continued to speak, Lilith gave him her full attention, becoming a little more alert that she was awake, and that what he was saying was important. He was correct in saying she knew what it felt like, as she’d lived nearly her whole life that way- it wasn’t a pretty feeling. But now she had Sima, who wanted to be her friend, her family, her lover… Her eyes widened at this, two orbs of deep purple, glittering softly in the dim sunlight. She remained speechless, not wanting to interrupt him, lest he not continue his thoughts.

She listened carefully, wanting to memorize every detail, every word. She smiled softly at his worries of safety, and money, of making her laugh, loving how he cared so deeply to think so much of it. She didn’t want it to kill him, not for trying to help and care for her, but she kept her comments to herself, still not wanting to interrupt, though she knew what he meant, regardless. Her brain was still hazy.

Lilith moved her other hand to hold his face now, as he spoke of wandering alone, remaining in that forest, had they not met- many things would be different. Lilith knew, that if she had the chance to do it over, she wouldn’t change a thing, not the wolves, not the stab wound, nothing. Because with each bad memory, there was a memory of Sima saving her, being her hero, caring for her. This man was amazing. Liliths eyes glittered more now, due to slight tears gathering around them, as the remembered all they had been through in such a short time period, all that they had felt, done, experienced, and all of it leading to where they were now. His words were creating so much emotion for her, in such a tired state.

Lilith’s heart seemed to stop beating for a moment, the world seemed to freeze, her breath catching in her throat. Her eyes scanned his flushed face, a sight that was rare, and beautiful, no matter the circumstance. She lightly stroked his cheek, her tears no longer just glitters in her eyes, but small crystals on her cheeks, though there was a soft smile on her face. She hadn’t been able to place this fluttering feeling she kept getting, in the pit of her stomach. Every time they kissed, every time a small gesture was made, like holding hands, or hugging, every little cute comment, romantic moment, subtle glances, she felt this fluttering, like butterflies in her stomach. The pieces seemed to all fit together now. Love. She didn’t think it was possible for her, not now, not ever. Yet here was this man, this wondrous, attractive -shirtless-, caring man, telling her he loved her.

Time started to move again for Lilith as she let out a soft breath, and she blinked away the tears that were blocking her vision, so she could see his beautiful face.

Love… That is a word I never in my life, thought I would hear someone say to me. Her voice was shaky, nervous and still sleepy. She loved this man, and as he said, that was the only way to put it. She knew she didn’t yet have the courage to say what he did, so she leaned forward instead, closing the gap between them. She kissed him softly, growing deeper. Her words were never her strong point, but as the saying went, Actions speak louder than words…
