Comments

[geonomy]

[The thoughts that suddenly show up gets Clay to laugh, and he pulls Allen down to sit with him. Once Allen's done so, Clay can't help leaning in to rest his forehead against his temple, shifting their hands a bit so that they can entwine their fingers together.]

[ Speaking of that ]

You know, I wouldn't be surprised if they had a lot of ingredients here. Maybe I can try cooking some of those for you.

[save_the_souls]

[!!!!!]

[Yeah, there's a definite sudden perk in excitement. FOOD? BOYFRIEND'S WONDERFUL COOKING???]

Really?

[geonomy]

Yup. Heck, maybe I can make some Korean food, finally! Mom's specialty!

[And right then, there's a flashbulb of a memory that comes along with that last sentence: a woman in front of a stove, looking away from the pan she's flipping food on to give a smile.]

Though I do need money first. I don't think they accept credits here...

[save_the_souls]

[He pauses when that memory flashes through his head. So that's his mom, huh...?]

[She looks like you.]

I can help you earn the money.

[geonomy]

[There's a pause from that comment, though it's obviously a good thing Allen said, if the touched feeling that blooms in Clay's chest says anything.]

[ Thanks... I got that a lot. ]

[And another pause, as it's weird to think about something that's entirely different from what he's actually talking about]

That'd be awesome! Your contribution to operation: feed Allen fund would be greatly appreciated.

[save_the_souls]

[He laughs a little at that remark, in amusement]

What can I say? It's for a good cause.

[I love this man. I want to spend as much time as I can with him.]

[geonomy]

[That thought he just heard makes Clay silent, though he feels a series of feelings along with it: touched, a sense of tenderness, a deep love, and a pleasant sort of flustered that shows when he pulls back enough to face Allen properly, a blush on his cheeks.]

I feel that way too. I...

[Instead of finishing that, Clay leans in - slowly, so that Allen has time to react, his free hand reaching up to cup his cheek as he presses his lips to Allen's. That love he's feeling increases, and a thought rings out in his head as well:]

[ I love you, I love you, I want to be with you as long as I can. ]

[save_the_souls]

[Allen and Clay have kissed many times. Countless numbers of times, at this point. But this...this was very different from those times. It was so much more intense. He could feel Clay's deep love pouring from him, as well as hear those loving thoughts. It mixed with his own loving feelings and made everything feel that much more strongly.]

[He lifts his free hand to rest on the back of Clay's neck, as the kiss continued, scooting closer- just reveling in the love and affection between them]

[geonomy]

[Clay gets completely lost in the kiss and all the feelings it causes. There's an intensity to it that he's never felt before, Allen's love connecting and entwining with his own, making his toes curl in his shoes, tingles that turn into warmth spreading from the top of his spine to the rest of his body. He scoots closer as well, as much as he can without making the kiss awkward.

He'd love for this to keep going as long as he can, but he kind of forgets to take in breaths during the kiss, so he ends up having to break it. He catches his breath, his eyes shut with his forehead resting against Allen's, eyes shut to revel in the feelings that keep shooting through his body.]

[ Wow... ]

[save_the_souls]

[Allen has to catch his own breath as the kiss breaks, resting his forehead against Clay.]

[Aye...wow is right. I think I saw stars. ]

[geonomy]

[ I saw the stars and the edge of the galaxy. ]

[He stays like that for a moment, his breathing evening out more and more, keeping his forehead against his boyfriend's. Once his breathing's relatively normal again, he shifts his hold, though makes sure to never break contact, to wrap both arms around Allen's neck, then open his eyes to look into the other's with a playful grin.]

I wouldn't mind staying up here longer and seeing more stars with you.

[save_the_souls]

[His words cause him to laugh. He laughs enough that he has to take a moment just get it all out as he leans Clay- clearly in utter amusement. He knows exactly what Clay is getting at, but wow what a come on]

Are you not worried about falling out of the tree from all the stargazing?

[geonomy]

[Clay laughs as well, half from amusement and half from feeling the same thing from Allen's side, and moves one hand to start stroking slow, lazy circles against one of Allen's shoulder blades]

Not when you're here to catch me.

[ Or catch yourself but that's not romantic - oh dammit he can hear me ]

[save_the_souls]

[He laughs at the thought that run through his head, from amusement and flattery. He smiles at Clay, and leans in to kiss him again. The feelings are all there- love, affection, trust, and a sense of reassurance]

[Yeah, he'll always be there to catch you.]
