[ He couldn't believe this was happening. Shit. He could feel his heart fluttering with both excitement and nervousness as he stared at her and all of her curves. As much as he wanted to close his eyes, his desire to see Mio's cute face as he touched her took over.
So with that, he nervously places a hand on top of her silky smooth leg. Slowly, his fingers smoothly trace her calf before he stops and holds onto her thigh. It wasn't very long but damn, he really enjoyed doing that. Her legs felt so nice and soft. ]
[ It is what she wants. Even though she doesn't show it much in her expression, she's also a little flustered at how bold she's being but she knows that a part of it is so that she doesn't think about the memories, the pain.
She wants so much to forget.
Because thinking about it too hard makes her confused. It makes her not know who she is, and she ends up questioning herself, who she is.
When he suddenly touches her calf, she finds herself shuddering in surprise that he chose there of all places, a surprised noise passing her lips as she finds herself leaning closer to him, yearning more of his touch. Cheeks flush and her eyes shut for a moment as she hums pleasantly, nodding at his question. ]
Yeah... it's not unpleasant. [ That's a start, at least. ]
[ As nervous as he is about the whole ordeal, touching her like this sent a tingling sensation down his spine. It's embarrassing, but he couldn't deny that he really enjoyed doing this. His heart felt like it wanted to pound out of his chest. When he hears that noise escape from her lips, it's enough to drive him wild. He hasn't received too many memories, but likewise... he was ready to forget.
Honestly, he wanted to not remember a single thing. With recent events and after talking to Mio, he also had to question if everything was real. The idea that his parents- his family that he cared for might not even be real was eating away at his heart. The fact that he couldn't call his parents only fueled that theory and distressed him every single day.
When she leans in, he wraps an arm around her waist to bring her even closer to him. He immediately brings his lips to meet with her's for a passionate but also tender kiss. For a few moments, he lets the kiss linger on before pulling away. ]
Not unpleasant? I thought I would at least get a better score than that.
[ As much as 'huge mood' would probably encapsulate all of this, there's just so much more mixed into all of this that honestly can't be put into proper words but has to be said anyway, lest this bracket text become too meta.
Honestly, she wouldn't mind just simply melting into his touch and pretend that the world was just the two of them. It's a silly thought, really, one that she doesn't voice, but... she wouldn't be unhappy if it came to fruition.
Having him close though means that he can probably feel her through the clothes she's wearing her chest against his own when he suddenly pulls her close and kisses her, in a way that's enticing and almost overwhelming. Almost, before he pulls away and ah-- ]
[ Pretending as though they were the whole two people in the world was something that Leon would love as well. At this very moment, Mio is the only person that's on his mind. All he wanted was for time to stand still so they could stay in this moment forever.
The sensation of her chest being pressed against his causes a blush to heat up his cheeks, he thought his face was on fire from how hot he was feeling. Somehow, thinking that she wasn't wearing anything underneath causes him to flush in a brighter scarlet hue. It's embarrassing and sinful but... he was enjoying this far too much for his own good. ]
You're not going to give me a score yet? Are you expecting more, Mio?
[ Mio smiles in a way that's a little soft, but her tone isn't bossy or teasing at all; in fact, it's a soft little thing, almost relaxed. The fact that his face is red is kind of cut, but... nah, she won't make fun of him right now. Even if she totally, definitely could. ]
But not too much more. [ There's a slight pause as she shifts herself to get herself a little comfortable. ] Do you like touching me?
[ There's no doubt that he's still nervous about the whole situation but her voice was enough to calm his nerves and even in this situation, he felt relaxed. ]
Y-Yeah... I'll touch you just one more time then.
[ Because he's not sure how much more of this his heart can take. Along with... other parts of his body. He places a quick kiss on her forehead as his hand slowly moves away from her thigh and gently places it on her chest. ]
Y-Yeah, I do. I really like the feeling of your body.
[ He's already a scarlet tomato, but his face was searing from the touch. Her chest felt really nice and soft... ]
[ Hearing him say that is almost enough to make her nervous all over again but when his fingertips leave her thigh, she can't help but shudder. Even more so when he puts his hand on her chest.
Her face is just as red now, and the soft sounds that pass her lips are pleasant as she leans into his touch. ]
[ Touching her chest sent a pleasurable shiver down his spine. However, when she leans into his touch, he's forced to swallow hard and bite his bottom lip to prevent him from letting out a sound. A small, elated sigh does manage to pass his lips as he let's his hands linger on her chest.
He places another passionate kiss on her soft lips before pulling away. As much as he would like to continue, it wouldn't be wise since her parents could come home at any moment. ]
[ The kiss is warm and comforting. It's one that she could melt into, especially after hearing him sigh like that. Ah... how nice... but she soon snaps back to reality when he says that. ]
Ahaha. Probably, yeah. Maybe we can continue another time. Thank you though. For indulging me.
[ Mio's lips part slightly before they curve into what seems to be a satisfied smile, especially when he wraps his arms around her. He's so close that it's almost comforting... ]
It's cute when you stammer. [ At least she's being honest. ] But ahaha, I'm glad that you... liked it.
[ That causes him feel even more embarrassed. He doesn't want to be seen as cute! In his mind, he's totally cool. ]
Are you making fun of me?! [ After frowning at her, he sighs and finds himself melting into her warm body. What he wanted most was to stay like this forever but unfortunately, he knew it wasn't possible. ] I... should probably get going but I want to stay like this just a little longer.
[ Mio still has school to go to, so it's only after classes are done that she decides to meet up with him at his place-- of course, she's hoping to retreat into his room or at least move somewhere else if they really have to. She's honestly really relieved that no stray thoughts have been heard ever since they got back, so she can't actually be upset about that.
But...
Leon's worried about her. She can't hide that. And she does need someone to talk to about all of this. She won't knock or doorbell just in case, but instead she just sends a text message, hurriedly: ]
[ Likewise, Leon had school as well so by the time Mio had stopped by, he got back home not too long ago. If it wasn't for the fact that he was so exhausted, he wouldn't have been able to sleep.
Given his own memories that he recalled yesterday. As confusing as they were, none of them truly got under his skin like this one.
However, he had to put on a brave face for Mio. As annoying as the telepathy was, it wasn't that bad. He would have liked to hear her thoughts so he knows how she feels but at the same time, it's a good thing because he didn't want to worry her with his own awful memories.
In preparation for her arrival, he finished brewing some tea when he sees her text message and immediately walks over to open the door to greet her. ]
Hey.
[ Even though he crashed hard last night, it's obvious he still looked tired. He opens the door wider for her to enter. ]
[ She manages to say that with what seems to be a soft smile; one that doesn't tell just how bad she's been feeling. In fact, outwardly she even seems to look fine. But that's something that's come rather naturally for her like it's practically nothing.
And she nods at his question. ]
I don't want... anybody else to hear this. Nobody will hear if we're in your room, right?
[ In a way, seeing her give off the air of everything being perfectly fine is almost unsettling. He knew that something was bothering her but the way se said it so naturally worried him even more.
Mio Sonozaki is a fantastic actress and it scares him to think about what else she might be hiding. ]
Yeah, we should be good. You can head into my room right now if you want, I'll be there in a moment with some tea and snacks.
Okay! Thanks for letting me come here, by the way. ☆
[ Keeping up a rather cheery voice, she beams, walking right on in as she does the usual when coming into his apartment, which is to take off her shoes. She's wearing something on the simpler end in terms of colors, but it's still rather fashionable enough. Thank goodness for having a good sense of fashion.
She'll head into his room as soon as she's gotten the okay as she nods, although she's admittedly a little more nervous entering it now on her own for... particular reasons. But she's here to talk seriously about certain things, so she can just.
Leave that alone for now as she just goes ahead and plops herself onto his bed. It's kind of embarrassing, especially as she's crashing face first into whatever pillow he has on there, staying almost a little too attached to it as she even wraps her arms around it to keep it close to her as she waits. ]
[ As Mio made her way to his room, Leon headed off to the kitchen. He finishes warming up the green tea and begins pouring them into two cups. Once that's done, he neatly stacks two slices of pandan cake onto two plates and pulls out another plate that's filled with jiaozi.
Okay, maybe he went a little overboard on snacks but he figured that since they both just got out of school, they deserve some good food. With his tray in hand, he makes his way back to the room and opens the door with his foot.
He's getting ready to greet her, but instead... he's smirking at the sight in front of him. How cute... she was hugging his pillow. ]
Making yourself at home? I see you're getting quite comfortable.
[ And the moment that she hears his voice is the moment when she grabs the pillow, adjusts herself so that she's sitting instead of laying down and just brings it close to her face to hide any possibility of red cheeks. ]
You don't mind, do you...?
[ Perhaps she should probably let go of it, but instead she just tightens her grip on it instead. ]
[ Okay now she's even cuter trying to hide her embarrassed face with his pillow. Everyday, he's amazed by how adorable she is. As he pulls over a fold out table in front of the bed, he lets out a snicker at how cute her reaction his. He then places the tray onto the table and sits next to her.
Of course, he doesn't forget to pat the top of her cute head. ]
I don't mind at all. In fact, I think it's quite adorable to see you clinging to my pillow like this.
[ He runs one of his hands through his hair. ]
I see you just can't get enough of me, you have to smother my pillow too.
If her face wasn't red already, it certainly becomes more of a beet now, especially since she's embarrassed. It smells really nice, so she can't help herself. Although she does pull it down and closer to her chest, as her gaze shifts away from him, even though her cheeks are still pink. ]
Stupid... anyway, I'm not here to talk about that!!
