It had been the best place Emma could find with the little she could afford as rent and her unwillingness to have a stranger as a roommate. Sure, in ten years Bed-Stuy was going to be very hip, but this was now, and it was still Brooklyn. And it was still costing her a fortune at $650 a month. At least the brownstone her studio was in was in good repair, and Emma's little room had recently been redone, with new paint and windows, to better block out the noise of the street.
And despite the fact she'd only been there a few weeks, there were books everywhere. Emma was taking a double course load - again - and was doing her best to ignore the increasingly distracting texts that Jack kept sending her so she could focus on writing her paper on Dewey's philosophy of education against current teaching trends.
Yes, this is what she did for fun. And maths. Maybe it wasn't too late to add a maths class...

"I mean, you're you, I shouldn't be surprised you're still you and that you like me and you're adorable, like, with whipped cream and cherry and sprinkles type of adorable and --"
She'd probably regain control of her mouth eventually.

Date: 2012-09-17 12:44 am (UTC)"No whipped cream," he said. "It gets sticky. And I don't think there are any cherries between us. But I want you with sprinkles and corsets and -- whatever body parts we have between us right now. And I saw the way you were looking at me earlier, this isn't all on my side."

Date: 2012-09-17 12:57 am (UTC)"I...don't like girls?" she
askedmanaged haltingly. "I mean, I don't know why I do sometimes or if I really do or if Fandom makes me bolder..."Fuck this, she was just going to go back to undoing the corset and focus on the skin of Jack's shoulder so she didn't have to admit to blushing.
"It's your fault for being pretty."

Date: 2012-09-17 01:18 am (UTC)He wasn't any good at this kind of angst. He'd wanted Irina at the same time, and almost as intently, as he'd wanted Sebastien, and the same pattern had followed him for the last five years.
"You're allowed to be bold with me."
He knew that much. And now he was going to breathe in and hope to come free of his corset.

Date: 2012-09-17 01:37 am (UTC)"Your turn," was all she said.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-17 01:46 am (UTC)If he thought he was close enough to try kissing her cheek and see what happened ... could anyone blame him?"
no subject
Date: 2012-09-17 01:59 am (UTC)She didn't have to make up her mind now, or ever, because wouldn't ask that of her. But Jack did ask for bold, and that she could give freely. By turning her head just enough to catch his kiss, lightly, and nip playfully at his lower lip.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-17 02:10 am (UTC)Kissing, to him, felt about the same as ever; electric but familiar.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-17 02:18 am (UTC)<<Teeny,>> she teased.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-17 02:36 am (UTC)He finally remembered he'd started to unlace her corset, pulled the strings to get it off the rest of the way.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-17 08:22 pm (UTC)Emma was going to help Jack get rid of the corset fairly quickly and pull him - her - Jack - down on the futon with her.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-17 08:44 pm (UTC)He wanted to reassure Emma again that she didn't have to do anything she didn't want to, but finding words was hard when there was this much want. He assumed she'd get it from his thoughts.

Date: 2012-09-17 09:27 pm (UTC)Not that there was probably a wrong-way, mind you, but figuring out the logistics of two sets of breasts when usually there was only one did take some experimenting.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-17 09:38 pm (UTC)Carefully, he slid one (strangely small) hand down Emma's stomach to brush against the waistband of her underthings.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-17 10:08 pm (UTC)Emma trailed her fingers along Jack's neck, tangling them in the longer blonde hair only to have them escape again and trace new designs against the softer-skin.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-18 12:11 am (UTC)His fingers dipped just below the waistband, resting there for a moment as he waited to see if she'd pull back.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-18 02:01 am (UTC)So she leaned in to press a light kiss against that neck, to see what it felt like, but she didn't pull back.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-18 02:18 am (UTC)Today, he was going to murmur something vague and apprecioative about the kiss -- in a voice that was higher than usual but had his accent, his choice of words -- and let that exploring hand dip lower, massaging Emma's mound. His other hand stayed on her ribcage.
no subject
Date: 2012-09-18 02:36 am (UTC)There was a sharp intake of breath, which shuddered as she exhaled against Jack's neck. Nervous, yes, but also curiosity and desire, and just the sheer need to be touched.
One hand untangled itself from the longer-than-usual curls and started lightly skating down Jack's back as Emma continued scattering kisses anywhere on his neck that she could reach.
