Barbara sighs. That lithe touch of his is something she adores. Eyes flutter as he finally bridges the gap and of course she succumbs, she melts, right into that kiss. She lingers afterwards, forehead pressing to his. “Thank you.” she whispers.

_{ky wished he could have kept his lips on her’s forever, but he couldn’t. no, he knew how careful he had to be around her, and he wasn’t about to let that control slip. not now and not anytime soon. not if he had the chance to stop it. “no matter what anyone says… i care about you. i  really do.”}
