[At least if they're kissing she's not staring at his chest! Removes that fear factor] Oh, is that what it was? I didn't mean to distract you. [Kisses her back, hands roaming up and down her sides again, squeezing her hips, sliding along her arms to her shoulders to cup the back of her neck.]
You distracted me a lot. [ Kissing does make it easier. She’s overwhelmed by having Cloud over her, his body right there, and she wants to kiss and touch so much that it’s startling. His hands move over her and she mirrors it, both her hands going to his hips and resting there as she presses herself up into kiss kiss, humming softly. This is something she could do for hours, and she likes the idea of it more and more. ] Cloud... [ She strokes her hands up and over his chest until they’re around his neck, not wanting to let him go for a moment. ]
You keep saying my name like that and I'm gonna wanna do something stupid, [Cloud mutters, pressing down so he can feel the fabric of her dress against his skin. God, she's so warm.]
What do you mean by 'stupid'? [ She shifts, wiggling a little, not uncomfortable but a touch nervous. Cloud is so close and she wants to reach out and wrap herself around him and not let go. That's hard to wrap her mind around, especially when she's flushed pink and desperate to kiss him over and over again. ]
This is serious. Serious serious. It's not like he hasn't thought about it before...maybe more than thought about it. And it's not like he didn't think they'd eventually get here, especially with her looking like this, her hair mussed, her cheeks flushed; he wants her, he really does, but there's just...
He pushes himself up onto his elbows, a little shamefaced.] ...I wanna make you feel good. But- [Maybe there's something wrong with him, that he doesn't want to go all the way yet.] ...just you.
This is making me feel good. [ Aerith leans up, lifting her hand to touch his cheek with a gentle press of her palm. She gazes at him, just for a few moments, and then she's breathing out and shifting back, feeling a warmth settle in her chest. Cloud wants to take care of her, wants to make her feel good, and she tilts her head up to kiss him gently.
It's like she can speak his language. She knows what he means, what he wants, and she feels herself warm and pink. There's no looking away from him, not when he's staring at her the way that he is. ] We don't have to do anything else. I just want to be with you. Okay?
[She's too good. She's just-] I really don't deserve you, [Cloud laments, ducking his head to tuck his face against her neck, hands stroking up and down her sides, thumbs slipping beneath the hem of her shirt to trace circles against her skin.] You're so great, y'know...?
[ She doesn't say 'so are you' even though she wants to. She doesn't tell him that he deserves so much - because she knows he won't accept it, that he'll shrug it off, and Aerith wants this moment to last forever. Instead, she wrap herself around him and holds on, anchoring him in the mismatched moment of twisting emotions. ] I'm glad you think so. [ Turning carefully, she kisses the side of his head. ] I'm happy, Cloud.
[Her hands are small but strong against his back, fingers a little rough from working the ground day after day. When she holds him like that, when she says it like that, kisses him like this, he can believe her, that she's happy and that she wants this, wants him, really is honestly as happy as she could be. Even if they don't do anything because of his own hangups, even if he screws up, she'll still be happy just being with him.
Cloud takes in a shuddering breath before kissing her neck and drawing back, pushing the hem of her shirt up her belly.] Can I take this off...?
[ She's never been this intimate with someone before and when she reaches for Cloud there's no hesitation; she wants to touch him, wants to feel him close to her, wants to kiss him again and again until it physically hurts. For a brief and wonderful moment he is simply everything, surrounding her entirely, and she knows that she is comfortable, that she is home, that she is happy. Cloud is hers, right now, for now, and selfishly she wants to keep it that way for as long as she can.
His hand moves higher and she hesitates, just for a moment - not because she doesn't want it, but because of the scars it'll bare. ] Mhm. It's okay.
[Cloud pushes back off of her so she can wriggle around well enough to help him get the shirt up over her head. She's...so cute, and legit if Cloud were a bit more of a lech he'd be ogling her boobs. Okay so he's doing a little of that anyway (they're so cute alright) but then he's distracted by the scar right beneath the line of her bra.
He glances up at her before reaching forward to rub a thumb down the mark. It's almost criminally clean; strange, for how much damage it did. Cloud has a matching one on his own stomach, below his ribcage because he'd had a chance to fight, he'd been facing Sephiroth but Aerith had been ambushed and cut down like-
Cloud scowls, shakes his head and leans forward to kiss her cheek, her chin. He's not going to think about that, not now, not while they're together like this.] Hope you're prepared to correct me a bunch of times.
[ The moment comes and Aerith lets him have it, lets his fingers press against the scar on her skin. She doesn't have many, not really, a few here and there from the fights she took part in, but her role had mostly to be settled in the back using materia to heal and help. This is a scar that has meaning, and she knows what it could do to Cloud, to see it in front of him so plainly, despite all the hours they've spent trying to get him to understand that it wasn't his fault.
When he leans into more kisses she relaxes, breathing out gently and lifting her arms to hold on to him, to anchor herself. Each of his kisses makes her skin flush and without a shirt she's sure he can see it, the way it goes down her neck and lower, the colour spreading between her breasts. ]
You haven't done anything I need to correct. [ And Aerith trusts him, wholeheartedly. ] Just... Keep going, okay.
[SHE'S BLUSHING DOWN HER CHEST.......THAT'S SO CUTE.......] Sure, sure...so, keep going down like this? [Kisses down her neck...her collarbone...oh look there's a swell of her breast right here, fancy that, maybe he'll kiss along the line of her bra. Please ignore how his own face is beet red, he's enjoying himself and hopefully she is too]
[ It's impossible not to shiver under Cloud's touch, the press of his mouth, and she bites her lip as she tries to keep herself calm. It's not that she doesn't want to spook him, exactly, just that... It's new, and strange, and it makes her feel as though she's too close to a fire, burning from the inside out. ] Yes. [ It comes out as a soft gasp and she tilts her head back, swallowing, her fingers stroking through his hair. ]
[Oh geez, is she shaking? Is that good or bad? She's not like, pulling his hair trying to yank him back for anything, and she said yes and all, so...
So he keeps going. Runs his hands up and down her sides, squeezes her hips, kisses across one breast to the other and then back up her neck. Holy, she really does just smell so good, and her skin is so warm and soft... Really warm. Like, to the point where if he presses his thumbs to her bra right beneath her breasts it's hot.] D'you...want this off?
[ It's definitely not bad; she feels the shiver run through her and her body feels warm, her eyes closing as she leans back and basks in being touched.
For a little while Aerith doesn't know where to put her hands, and her cheeks are flushed and dark - as dark as her eyes are as she drinks her in. Swallowing, she nods her head, definitely shy, biting her lip for a moment; it's a little, worried gesture, her fingers lifting to stroke over his cheek. ] It would be okay with me.
[Okay, gonna kiss her and slip his hands under her back to get this bra off. Wow he's gonna see his girlfriend topless, she wants to be naked with him, they are totally gonna get off together and this is the best and coolest and scariest thing ever-
how does this come off] ...I don't- is it a clasp? A hook? Hang on, can you get up real quick...
[ There's no way for her to help the way she giggles, shaking her head and shifting up a little. When she does, it means she can kiss Cloud quickly, pressing their mouths together in a just-about-there kiss, a little messier than what she usually offers, but she's a little bit distracted.
Reaching behind, she guides his hands to the clasp, turning her body to the side so he can see how to take it off. ] Undo it there and it'll just slide off.
Oh, it's two hooks, [Cloud murmurs, leaning over her shoulder to get a look, half-hugging her as he unhooks her bra and slides it off between them. Just goes ahead and tugs it away to toss over the side of the bed, hugging her bare chest to bare chest, arms around her.] Wow, you're so warm. [OH GOD HER BOOBS ARE SO SOFT] I'm not cold, am I?
[ It makes her laugh, how precious Cloud is being, and she leans up to kiss him again, to draw him against her and hold him there. His skin against her own makes her prickle, senses in overdrive, and she breathes out sharply before she tilts her head, eyes wide. ] No, no. You're not cold. [ But she feels overwhelmed by how much of him she can feel, her eyes widening just a little. ]
Aerith, seriously, you're- [He blows out a breath over her hair before finally drawing back, getting a good look at her. DAMMIT. GOD DAMN, MAN.] You're cute, [he finally chokes out, face beet red, but he can't stop looking her over; her face, her breasts, the way her stomach swells and caves with her breath. Oh god she's so cute. She's so pretty, she's sexy even if she's just as visibly nervous as he is.] I wanna look at you forever. -is that a birthmark?
Cute? [ Is that the appropriate thing for a boy to say when he's looking at your chest? She's flushed red, but she's not petulant. Maybe she'd like to hear 'beautiful' or 'hot', but she's not complaining; the fact that Cloud is talking at all means a lot to her, and she shakes her head, wiggling a little. It's more bare than she's ever been around someone before, and her heart is thudding in her chest. ] You can keep looking, don't - it could be. [ Tilting her head, she tries to hide her smile, but she's so desperately fond, so deeply in love, it's impossible. ]
[UM LOOK YOU ARE BEING VERY CUTE, also he's Bad at this in case u didn't know
Cloud's definitely staring though. He's trying not to seem like he's staring but his eyes keep wandering down, and- this is cool, right? If he just uhhhhhh like touches. The boobs. Right?????? ohgod]
[ It's not as if she minds the staring - it's flattering, really - but she flushes all the same, cheeks red before she tilts her head and offers him a soft smile. That changes when his hand moves, though, and she shivers, tilting herself a little, pushing herself up into his touch. ] Cloud...
