moodboard - Hunter Clarington x Nova Monroe [1/?]

↳ “You don’t get to call me good boy. But if you’re good for me, I will consider praising you. Now be a good girl, stop asking questions and just work your charm to get us through this exam.” ↳ “I do not submit. That, I’m going to make very very clear - but I’ll let you keep those fantasies; just because I’m so nice. In fact, you can even think about them while I have you on your knees and using my title like the good boy I know you can be.”

Rebecca laughed incredulously at him. He was definitely an interesting guy. He was always surprising her. "Yeah, I gotta say, I wasn't expecting that!" she chuckled, shaking her head. "Sorry for not warning you, though. I figured a surprise would be better." She winked at him and crossed her arms. "And it was awesome right? I've got it on good authority that I'm pretty good."

"Don't worry about it. I mean, you did surprise me, but..." he laughed. He couldn't say he minded. Slipping his hands into his pockets, he gazed down at his shoes for a moment before raising his eyes to her face.

"Of course," a smirk slid across his features. "Oh really? I'll have to see then." He couldn't believe his behavior at the moment, but it just seemed to come naturally, out of nowhere.

She wasn't sure what kind of reaction she had expected from him, but it certainly wasn't that. For him to suddenly lean forward and return the favour. Rebecca's eyes briefly widened, but she hid her shock as quickly as she could. She tried to act natural, like she had totally seen that coming. In reality, though, she was impressed. Apparently, he was much more bold than he looked. When he pulled away, leaving her able to think again, she grinned even more devilishly than before. "Wow."

Truthfully, Fuery's actions had taken him by surprise. But he couldn't deny that he enjoyed her reaction, especially her surprise despite her attempts to hide it.

They stood for a moment, blinking as coherent thought returned. Returning her grin with a smirk of his own, "Weren't expecting that, were you?" He shouldn't tease her, but he couldn't resist. "Honestly, I wasn't expecting it either," he looked down, laughing lightly, the feeling of bashfulness beginning to return.

There was no going back. Not that she wanted to turn back. No, she was definitely doing this. The gap between them closed and Rebecca softly pressed her lips against his. She hoped he wouldn't freak out too much. To be safe, she only held the kiss for a second or two before pulling back, a grin plastered to her face. "Well~?"

Still processing what she had said, trying to gauge what was going on, it took a few minutes before it fully registered what was happening. The world stopped. The sensation of her lips against his was enough to stop all conscious thought. Eyes flew open and his face burned. She was.. kissing him. Tech manuals, military training, nothing had a formula for this kind of situation.

He stared, blinking owlishly as she drew back, an almost impish grin plastered over her face. "..." When he opened his mouth, no words came. The look on her face, however, awakened a boldness that he didn't know he had. A moments hesitation, and since no words were forthcoming, he did the next best thing. Without giving her, or himself a chance to think, he leaned forward, closing the short space between then, had pressed his lips against hers before pulling back.

Smirking, in spite of his embarrassment. "Well~?"

Rebecca's strength lapsed as he closed his eyes and a grin threatened to overtake her features. But he couldn't see her right now, anyway. "Okay, good," she murmured, standing close to him. "Just stay that way, okay? I don't want to ruin the surprise." When it was obvious that he was not going to open his eyes, Rebecca leaned close, trying not to laugh. A sudden and inexplicable case of nerves caused her to hesitate for a moment, but she steeled herself and leaned in the rest of the way.

If he was honest, Fuery felt more than a little ridiculous standing there with his eyes closed. The seconds ticking by only increased his discomfort, but he resisted the urge to peek, telling himself his fears were ridiculous. It wasn't as though they were in danger, and he trusted absolutely that Rebecca would tell him should danger arrive.

He stiffened slightly, her vice was now very close, so close in fact that he could almost imagine he felt her breath prickling agains his skin when she spoke. "O-ok," he managed, feeling a flush in his cheeks at her close proximity.

"Hey, Kain." Rebecca approached him slowly, her expression guarded so as not to betray her thoughts. "I wanted to give you something. Can you hold still and close your eyes for a second?"

Her expression put him immediately on edge. It was not, of course, that he didn't trust her. He most emphatically did. But the guardedness was unlike her, and coupled with the oddity of the request, sharpened his senses.

"C-close my eyes?..." His gaze was curious, searching, as he tried to suppress the concern that jumped so readily to the surface. But, to say no would be unpardonable. "Okay," he said, feeling more than a little awkward as he complied with her request.

“Of course! Even a lot of people at work just call me Rebecca.”

"Well, that wouldn't be appropriate for me. At work I mean." Maybe someday, he mused. "But thank you."

Her willingness to share such a simple thing brought warmth to his chest. Most people would have taken it as a given, but Fuery had been around enough to realize otherwise. Friendships, relationships, were a gift.

"Oh, hey, I've been wondering... since we're dating, do you mind if I just call you Kain?"

"Of course I don't mind," the initial surprise gave way to a warm smile. "Can I call you Rebecca? Or...?" They could never call each other by name at work, but since she had felt the need to ask his permission, he felt it was only appropriate to return the gesture.
