And it feels like you agree too. [Elizabeth giggles and leans in to meet Gai's hips with her hand. Her breaths are coming a little faster too, and she's realizing that watching Gai looking pleased is turning her on. She licks her lips briefly, runs her thumb over the head of his erection.]

Are we going to need a, ah... you know... [Protective device?]

[Gai's so lost in the feeling of her hand on him that it takes him a moment to pull his mind back out of the haze of arousal enough to realize that she's asking him a question. It's so hard to think with her touching him like that, and then her thumb...]

Need a...

[And then he groans, although this time it's out of frustration rather than arousal.]

They're in the bedroom. I'll go get one...

[Assuming that his legs will work enough to let him stand up, that is.]

Oh no you don't. [Elizabeth puts a finger to Gai's nose and presses gently--just to indicate that he's not going anywhere if she has any say in the matter.] They're in the drawer, right?

Next to my bed.

[He grins, tilting his head up to catch her finger between his lips and suck on it just briefly before releasing it again. Okay, that was probably asking for it, but at this point he doesn't really care. To be honest, he finds the fact that Elizabeth wants to go get them for him to be hot.]

[Elizabeth lets out a little scandalized noise and pulls her finger away from Gai.] I can't trust you with any part of me, can I?

[She grins teasingly and slides off of the couch to retreat into the bedroom.]

[Gai's only response is to burst out laughing and call after her as she goes.]

Something tells me you wouldn't like me as much if you could.

Oh you're probably right. [She rolls her eyes as she opens the drawer and retrieves one of the little packages. Though honestly, she has no idea how to open it so she just brings it back to Gai while examining it.]

Still, don't go putting my finger in your mouth every time I put it in the vicinity of your face. Otherwise I'll have so much explaining away to do.

Should I be putting other things in my mouth instead?

[He is being bad, so bad, and he doesn't even care. His entire body feels like a live wire humming with arousal; he can't help if it's going to his head. There's nowhere else for it to go at the moment, after all.

At least Elizabeth handing him the condom gives him some sort of outlet for all of his pent-up desire. He rips it open with so much force that he almost sends the condom itself flying... good thing he has quick reflexes and is able to catch it before it goes anyway.

Don't laugh at him, Elizabeth.]

No! God, Gai, I'm starting to think you want Booker and Robert to actively start devising ways to keep me at home all the time. [Or... you know... devising ways to shoot him from farther away.]

Even I don't know if Booker has a-- [She startles when the condom springs into the air. It hadn't done that last time...]

[THAT DID NOT HAPPEN, SHE SAW NOTHING.

Just. Going to take that condom and put it on as if he hadn't almost slingshotted it across the room. He is dignified and smooth and in control always.

And also trying very hard not to start laughing and ruin that whole image he has going here.]

[Elizabeth watches Gai wrangle the condom and try to look dignified at the same time. It's, in her opinion, a losing battle.]

...it almost got away from you there, didn't it?

Can you blame it for wanting to escape its inevitable fate? We are going to be putting it to good use, after all.

[... okay, the wrapper can go on the floor, he'll just pick it up later. He is not going to crack a smile, no matter how much he might want to.]

I don't know. [Elizabeth climbs on top of Gai, her knees on either side of Gai's.] I think it's a nice place to be.

It's an incredible place to be.

[Gai settles his hands on Elizabeth's waist, leaning in to nuzzle at the base of her ear.]

So hot around me, squeezing me...

[Elizabeth shivers--so perhaps Gai's first attempt at dirty talk didn't quite go over as planned, but the straightforwardness seems to have hit home this time.]

[She tilts her head into Gai, her body shifting subtly into a more sensual tension as it starts to take renewed interest in intimacy.]

You say that... as though it's some feat I accomplish on my own. But it's because you stretch me so much. [Elizabeth tilts her head down so she can put a kiss on Gai's neck.] I've felt empty for a while now, you know.

[Gai is very rapidly coming to the realization that he loves hearing dirty talk from Elizabeth even more than he enjoys using it on her. Perhaps it's because she seems so innocent in so many ways, so to hear those things coming from her mouth make it that much more exciting.

All he knows is that he wants more of it.]

We can fix that pretty easily.

[Sensing that shift, he pulls her a bit closer, arching his hips up just enough to brush his erection between her legs, but not enough to give that firmer pressure that he knows she wants.]

Tell me how I feel inside you. I want to hear you say it.

[Elizabeth gasps quietly at the contact, and she's satisfied with that for the moment. She doesn't want it all at once, that would be too easy after all.]

[She grins and shifts her shoulders back and forth as she looks down at Gai. Cheeky little pretty boy, wasn't he?]

Hard, and cool. [She bites her lip and considers a bit longer, like she's withholding a secret.] But it's not just what you feel like resting inside of me. It's when you slide in and slide out that I feel... stretched, and sensitive, and wanted. I feel like I belong to you, and like you're giving yourself to me too.

I feel like I can't open myself any wider to you. And yet I can never get enough. I know I could stick anything inside of myself and feel the most basic of sensations, but it's you that makes me feel like there's a fire where we're joined, like I never want you to stop thrusting into me.

[That... was far more than Gai was expecting, and he's pretty sure it was also the most erotic thing he's ever heard in his life. Knowing that he can please her that much makes him happy, that it's him she wants and not just the sex itself. Not that he should really have any reason to doubt that, but deep down inside he's still a bit insecure about this whole relationship thing and whether or not he can really be what she wants.

Hearing this goes a long way towards assuaging those fears.]

I want you more than I've ever wanted anyone or anything in my life. You turn me on without even trying... I've never felt anything like it before. Being inside of you feels like the most natural thing in the entire world, and I never want it to end. I could stay that way for hours if it were possible.

Nothing I've ever had before even comes close to being with you.

[As Gai talks, Elizabeth's coy and come-hither grin smooths out into a smile that comes out of pure affection.]

I can think of something that feels almost the same as being with you. [She arranges Gai's hair, brushing it off of his shoulders and onto the couch with one finger.] It was the first time I had heard live music. The moment took hold of me, and I felt like I couldn't do anything wrong. I felt like I wanted to fly, and I spread my arms out and danced like I might do that.

That's how I feel, every time you touch me, or look at me. Every time I see you.

I think that's what being in love feels like.

[He slides his arms around the small of her back to pull her even closer to him, nuzzling at her collarbone as she plays with his hair. He still can't believe he even has this at all-- always, in the back of his mind, there's a fear that one day he's going to wake up, that all of this has just been a wonderful dream.]

And I'd be willing to die a million times if it meant I got to be with you like this.

[It's frightening, almost, being this honest with her... with anyone. But this too feels right.]

Maybe you already have. [Elizabeth lets her legs fold when Gai pulls her down, and she sits easily on his hips and enjoys the attention on her neck.]

There are a million worlds, as infinite as the number of variables in the life of one individual. Who's to say you haven't died a million times, or... will die a million times...

[She gets a strange, scared look on her face that she tries to bury quickly.] And... of those million Gais and million Elizabeths-- [She forces a small laugh.] --we were brought together. Maybe because our scattered lives were hard enough lived only once through, and so we needed each other. And happiness. Finally.

[At first, Gai isn't sure how to react to that sentiment. He's seen enough here in Luceti to be able to believe in the idea of alternate universes by now, but that's still a depressing thought. Millions of worlds and versions of himself, and all of them were miserable? It wouldn't surprise him - since destiny or fate or even evolution itself seemed to have it out for him - he just isn't sure he wants to be thinking about that now or ever.

From the look on her face, Elizabeth doesn't seem very happy about that thought either. So Gai just freezes, holding her awkwardly, not quite sure where to go from here.]

Guess we should count ourselves lucky for that much.

[So this was impressive in a terrible, awful way.]

[Elizabeth could almost be intrigued by how fast she appears to have cooled Gai down. Not that she blames him, she should have played that back in her head before saying anything. But Gai bringing up dying a million times, Elizabeth's forays into different worlds, Robert's insistence that she saved so many versions of herself from Comstock by doing something repulsive... they all conspired to take over her thoughts.]

It's... only a theory. I read about it once. It could be completely wrong. [Except that it wasn't. She pushes those doubts away by leaning down and kissing Gai softly. To distract both of them.]

If this is the only moment we have in the entire span of time and interdimensionality-- [~~Totally a word.~~] --I shouldn't waste it on theories. I'm sorry.

[Gai does return that kiss, though it's notably lacking in passion compared to just a few moments earlier. It's... okay, it's a logical thought to have, yes, but that's exactly the problem. It's far too logical a train of thought for something as emotional as sex, and to be honest, Gai isn't sure it's a train of thought he wants to ever be on.

His life is over. It's all done. Whatever may become of him in countless other universes doesn't really matter-- never did really matter, because he wouldn't know about it. He could've lived his entire life here without that knowledge and been perfectly content.

But now it's in his mind, and now he's thinking about it, and the more he does so, the faster his arousal dies.]

I don't give a damn about other universes or other versions of us or anything like that. None of them matter. The only thing that matters is the you and me who are right here, right now.

It's just a theory, I swear! [Elizabeth feels sick lying to Gai, but she's so desperate to smooth out the situation that she's saying anything.] It's ridiculous anyway--a new world being created from every single decision? It would be insane, where would they all be kept?

Gai-- [Elizabeth laces her fingers through his hair.] Gai, even if there were a million of you, I know I would find you. Over and over again. Because... because...

[Uncharacteristically, she's lost for words. Then she takes one of Gai's hands away from her back and plants his palm, very deliberately, on her breast.] Because we're a fit for each other. I fit in your hand, your hand fits me. We aren't meant to be apart, if there's only one of each of us or ten million. I wouldn't let us be apart, I know that.

[She squeezes Gai's hand tightly, trying to hang on, trying to swallow the lump in her throat. She won't let them be apart, she won't.]
