RP Chatzy - Bern and Dogma
Dogma: He kept his gaze off the other when he made that comment. "... I've gotten a bit more used to it. So?"
Bern: He smirked. "I don't think you got used to me, you started to like me."
Dogma: "I thought I just said that a moment ago...! When you say 'like', what exactly do you mean?" He hadn't really gotten much context from that.
Bern: "I guess I mean you feel a warmth in your chest when you see me, or a skip to your heart beat." He leaned close, one hand on Dogma's lower back as the other played with his hair. "You think about me when I'm not around and miss me, wanting to see me again soon."
Dogma: Dogma's eyes widened slightly at this. He'd just described exactly what he felt... He opened his mouth to speak but only air left. So he let his eyes close and tried to calm down a little. "It isn't often someone manages to leave me without much of a response. Impressive, Bern."
Bern: The blond chuckled. "I've also left you breathless but maybe I should save the pillow talk for later." He winked.
Dogma: "Damn straight..." His brow twitched. "But what you just described there is... Exactly what I feel. And that's embarrassing that you know."
Bern: "Wow." Bern leaned away a bit, chuckling. "Didn't think you loved me."
Dogma: "What?" He pulled back and covered his face. "I did not use the word 'love' at any point ever..." He'd never really felt love, after all...
Bern: Seeing that Dogma wasn't ready to accept the word, he let it go. "Sorry." Bern took his hands from his face and kissed them. "I'm glad you like me. I like you too."
Dogma: Dogma stared at the other with wide eyes. So obviously by 'like' he meant 'love', so then... That notion only made the feeling increase possibly tenfold. He could only mutter the other's name.
Bern: "I think I'm overwhelming you. Maybe we should call it a night."
Dogma: "No, it isn't that." Another averted gaze. "I've never really been... In love." That word felt so strange to use...
