"Uh — he’s tall. Very — tan. Deep voice. ——Nice.”
"I mean, I still like Icarus. But, he’s — a friend, you know?"
He held his breath, jaw clenching tightly. "...Good find."
"I never thought you wanted to see him on friendly terms, Celeste."
"He doesn’t —— we’re definitely talking about different people.”
"Yeah...I don't think so. Describe him to me. Also, what the hell happened to Icarus? I thought you wanted to hop on that dick."
"Uh, yeah ——— his name is Ryder. He’s — nice.”
"Ryder. Is that the one who's got a stick up his ass? Good choice."
"Well, aren’t you feeling generous today?" She pulled a small lighter from her jacket pocket, tossing it to him. "Funny thing is, I don’t even smoke."
He caught it and gave her a small grunt of thanks, lighting up with a flick of his thumb before he allowed the first inhale to numb his nerves. "Why do you have this, then?" He commented, looking over the lighter, "Is it a momento?"
"———Oh. Wow, that’s — fast. I mean, maybe not for you. Are you going to? I feel as if I need to remind you to use protection. I don’t want to be an uncle — not yet, at least.”
"Uh, not much. I — have a boyfriend? So, I guess that’s new.”
"You have a boyfriend." His first instinct was to find whoever sad little fucker that decided to do such a thing and wring his neck, but Cecil was too tired for such activities. Instead, he simply gave his twin a look, one that he knew much too well. 'Don't fucking play with me if you are.' In the end, he turned back to his unlit cigarette. "Who is it?"
Auva averted her eyes for the briefest of moments before shrugging up a shoulder. “It was my brother’s,” she muttered, extending a hand for the lighter back.
He was surprised by the amount of emotion that flickered across her face for a milisecond; it was more than she's ever shown during any one of their encounters, and it was real. Raw. Human. He glanced down at the lighter before placing it gently in the palm of her hand. "He's got a great taste in lighters. Cool guy."
He sprang up, and the felisian cuddled against her leg for a brief moment before it marched away. She watched Cecil curiously. When they’d first met, he told her that he’d get her flowers someday, but she hadn’t believed him. Now, here he was, gathering flowers, bathed in sunlight. Nothing could have been more perfect.
Her cheeks flushed at his question. “Of course I do. It can be somewhere else. I just thought… with the flowers and the sun and the way the grass smells…” she trailed off. “I totally get if you don’t want to.”
Cecil looked around them curiously. It must be easy to see them from the tunnel; thought there was grass and wildflowers, it was hardly thick enough to conceal their bodies in a way that would make it a bit more private. He didn't think Zara would ever be a fan of public indecency either; truth be told, he wasn't aware that the girl wanted to move so fast----- "Wait, really right here? Like, on the ground?" He pointed at the earth just to make sure, "I don't even have a condom or anything...but...um, if you want to, we totally can. I didn't know you were so eager to do that."
"—You sure? You said melodramatics. I — are you sure?”
"I've just been thinking. Zara told me she wanted to have sex and V's been distant----- you know how I get when we don't talk for a while."
"But I'm serious. How are you?"
Auva dug in her jacket and tossed Cecil the small lighter with a flick of her wrist. “Don’t say I never gave you anything.”
"I don't think I'd ever be in a situation where I'd have to say that," He took the lighter anyway, lighting one cigarette immediately before inhaling, closing his eyes, "This is engraved. Where'd you get it?"
"———I don’t have a light. What’s wrong?”
"Nothing's wrong. I'm dandy. Anything wrong with you?"
"So generous."
"I know. I'm a Jesus incarnate who's got a healthy addiction to nicotine. Do you have a lighter?"
"You got a light? I forgot mine back in my dorm and I really need a fucking cigarette right now. You don't even have to sit around to hear the melodramatics; take it as my gift to you."
"Earth is prettier than expected — although those little kittens are a definite pain in the neck no matter how cute they are.”
"Maybe you pissed them off somehow. They're usually pretty nice to me."
"Which one did you meet? 'Cause one of them is definitely more deadly than the other. Both are cute as hell, though, like you said. I've got two of them as pets."
Her heart fluttered when he pulled her closer. She liked it when he kissed her, when he really kissed her. She used to think that he didn’t want her, but it was hard to think that anymore; he kissed her so often and so well now. She couldn’t help but giggle as he pulled away. He was just so exciting.
His thumb trailed along her jaw so lightly that it felt like a whisper on her skin. His cheeks turned pink as he complimented her. She’d made him blush! Well, actually, he had made himself blush, but he wouldn’t have said the words if he wasn’t there. She kissed his right cheek, then his left one.
She pulled away and looked at him. “Everyone on base wishes that they were me, you know. I’m the luckiest girl in the whole universe because I have you.”
She held her breath as he tucked the daisy behind her ear. She looked up at him with raised eyebrows and red cheeks. “Okay,” she breathed. “I’ll be yours.” She took another drink from her juice box to gather her thoughts. “Cecil? I’m sorry if this is too… forward, but… when can we… when will we… I mean, do you even want to… make love to me?” She cringed as she heard the words pass her lips, but she looked up at him hopefully.
He allowed her to scatter kisses on his cheeks before he drew himself up on his knees, grinning like a madman. The daisy looked nice on her, just like her complimentary words looked nice coming from her lips. Deciding to shower her with more than just simple yellow flowers, he left her side momentarily, scanning the field for others. Cecil distinctly remembered when they first met; they were sitting on his floor, chatting about random things while he braided her hair and boasted his abilities to weave daisies against golden threads------ there had been a promise, too, to show her, and he didn't forget it.
He was in the process of picking up a particularly lovely set of Bachelor Buttons when her soft voice caught his attention once more. She sounded nervous and his ears perked instantly, looking away from the flower at hand and towards his girlfriend. "...You want to have sex?" He asked curiously, adding with a bit of amusement, "Here?"
Bernie hummed in thought, keeping his hand outstretched as the offer of the juice box still stood. “Y’sure? It’s fruit punch…” He shrugged his shoulders. Bernie lifted his head, just so that he could look directly into Cecil’s eyes, searching for some sort of answer to his question. ”Are you mad at me? I didn’t mean to make you mad or upset or nothin’.”
Cecil heaved a sigh. "Why does it matter if I'm mad or upset at you? I'm not--- by the way----but still. It's not like I'm someone important to you, like Val or anything. If anything, I thought I had made you upset."
"I was, too, but that went out the window when I was thirteen. Actually, I was a bratty little thing, now that I think about it. Why shouldn’t you? That’s justified. Not really, no, came close to it— Ah, no, I stabbed someone on Pluto."
"Luckily for everyone else, I haven’t. I can’t really find it in me to particularly care.”
"Why bratty? Did you demand too much and got snotty when you didn't get your way? Wait--- hold on, who the hell did you stab in Pluto? Was he being a creep with you?"
"Oh, but I'm just dying for the day when you eventually explode like a bursting star. It's going to be a fun fucking situation. Ten bucks says that Val's the one to push you to that point."
She looked through the leather bag he’d given her while he dealt with the felisian. The nasty little creatures always seemed to have a fondness for him, but who could blame them? “Juice boxes!” she exclaimed, her face lighting up as she pulled out an apple juice.
She placed a small hand on his chin and kissed him hello. “I missed you,” she told him as she pulled away.
"This was awfully nice of you," she said, smiling up at him beside her. She stabbed the juice box open with the straw and drank some. She handed him a juice box and a sandwich before she unwrapped a sandwich for herself.
She smiled at his words. “Actually, I have the best boyfriend in the universe, so you probably shouldn’t try anything unless you want him to beat you up.”
He smiled against her lips, catching her before she pulled away in order to slowly deepen the kiss until he finally had to breathe. Leaning back, he trailed his thumb over the girl's jaw, watching the wind tickle her soft hair. "You're really, really beautiful," Cecil mumbled quietly, letting go with a hint of pink on his cheeks, "Just thought you should know."
Laying the sandwich on his thigh, he opened up the juicebox first and took a sip, looking around the good earth curiously. Perhaps he hadn't been out for a long time, but there seemed to be more flowers; hues of whites, yellows and pinks scattered throughout the area, one of which was within grabbing distance. He leaned over and plucked one of the little daisies from a nearby patch, then tucked it behind her ear. "Well, I think I'm better than any boyfriend. I think you should reconsider."
