Appointments Post
This post can be used to thread with or get in contact with Gai at any point when he doesn't have a post up! Just comment here (please use the format [Action, June 24th], [Voice, March 5th], etc. to make it clear when the thread is taking place and what type of thread it is) for a thread with him; if it's a continuation of another thread or post, please link that so I remember the context of the thread.
[Action, July 19th]
[Action, July 19th]
All right, all right, I'll stop. I brought the washcloth, just like I said I would.
[Shaking the blanket off, he holds it up to show her.]
Do you want me to take care of it, or would you rather do it yourself?
[Action, July 19th]
Oh... [Elizabeth looks at the cloth, surprised by Gai's offer. Well... that actually might be nice. Intimate and nice. And given Elizabeth is dead exhausted, she's fairly certain that her body would give up and scream if she even thought about another round.]
Is it... odd for one person to clean their partner? [She looks a bit bashful, but it's probably clear from her smile what she's thinking of asking for.]
[Action, July 19th]
Not at all.
[At least, he doesn't think it's odd. Not that he really knows how two people behave in a relationship, but it seems like an intimate thing to do, and besides, he's the one responsible for it in the first place. Elizabeth shouldn't have to worry about doing any of the work, not after he's no doubt worn her out.]
[Action, July 19th]
[She lays back down next to Gai and parts her legs again. It's probably going to look less awkward if Gai helps her too, now that she thinks about it. And even if Gai was gone for just a minute, Elizabeth wants to restore that close feeling they had right after they had finished.]
[Action, July 19th]
Tell me if anything I do is uncomfortable.
[Action, July 19th]
[Action, July 19th]
It doesn't hurt?
[The implication here is clear: Was I too rough?]
[Action, July 19th]
[Elizabeth opens her eyes and starts tracing the dips in Gai's abs with a finger. It seems appropriate. Little touches for little touches.] Are you sore too? Or are you just too strong for that sort of nonsense? [She grins.]
[Action, July 19th]
Not anymore I'm not.
[That joke might or might not go over her head, depending on what sort of romance novels she read. Although it's not really a joke if it's the truth... he was drawing on all of his self-control this evening before they finally got down to business.]
[Action, July 19th]
What do you mean? [Yes, it went right over her head. And now Elizabeth looks a little worried.] Did I... squeeze too hard?
[Action, July 19th]
That question is so innocent and so sincere that he can't help but smile and bend down to brush a kiss against her lips. She's honestly concerned that she might have hurt him. That, to him, is one of the sweetest things he's ever heard.]
Not at all-- you felt incredible. But it wasn't easy for me to hold back, not when I wanted you so badly.
[Action, July 19th]
[Action, July 19th]
[That was what this was all about, after all: making her happy.]
[Action, July 19th]
I have the most thoughtful lover.
[Action, July 19th]
You deserve to be happy, Elizabeth. And I'll do whatever I can to make that happen.
[Action, July 19th]
[Action, July 19th]
Elizabeth loves HIM. Him, with all of his flaws, with his inability to be normal, with all of the skeletons that he keeps securely locked in the closet. There's nothing that could possibly equate to this.
She loves him, and she accepts him. What could possibly make him happier than that?]
[Action, July 19th]
[She kisses Gai back, deeply and passionately, stroking his hair as she does. Not that she's trying to start something again, but it feels right to be communicating this way.]
[When she pulls away, Elizabeth has to run her hand over Gai's cheek as though making sure he's still real. Which is silly, of course...]
Whatever happens here, no matter what I go through under any experiments, this is how I feel. This is how I'll always feel.
[Action, July 19th]
[He gives her a little squeeze, pulls her as close as possible. She feels comfortable and right in his arms, like she belongs there-- and a part of him can't help but feel that she does.
Gai has never thought about a future before. What was the point, when he knew he wouldn't have one? It would just have been a waste of time and gotten his hopes up all for nothing.
But now... now he does have the chance at a future, and just that thought is amazing and overwhelming at the same time.]
I love you.
[That, though, is one thing that he's certain of.]
[Action, July 19th]
[What Gai says also feels like the most natural thing. So it's easy for Elizabeth to respond.]
I love you too. [She wants a future too. She had nothing but time now, too. Now that she was far and away from Columbia.]
[Action, July 19th]
This is definitely something he could get used to.]
Warm enough?
[Action, July 19th]
Mm-hmm. [Elizabeth nods and hooks her ankle around Gai's. Just so every part of her is hugging him.]
[Action, July 19th]
He can't think of anywhere else he'd rather be right now-- to him, this is pretty much perfection.]
