Two Become One || Ethan and Lily
Who: Ethan Acton and Liliana Sinclair
When: September 3rd
Where: The Noir Castle
What: A very special rental
Ethan didn't get nervous very often in his life...and it felt as if this moment...this moment right now was making up for every second in his life that he hadn't felt like he was going to pass out from fearful anticipation. There wasn't enough money or forms of thank in the world that could be given to Marrok Noir to balance out what was being given to him tonight. He'd told Lily, only the very basics, that Mr. Noir had rented them for the night but it was just going to be them. He didn't want her to think he had expectations. He had red blooded hopes, of course, but god knew he'd be contented to just hold her, to kiss her and run his fingers through her hair with no interruptions and no eyes watching them.
A car came for them at an appointed time, and Ethan went to collect Lily from her cell, a small smile on his face. "You look beautiful," he commented, hand reaching out instinctively to take her own. He lead her down the hall and out through the front doors, held the door of the car for her and then settled next to her on the seat. His thumb moved in slow circles against the softness of her palm, and it was taking everything in him not to kiss her right now. Patience...patience was a virtue...someone much smarter than him had said that once. Clearing his throat, the man made an awkward attempt at small talk. "He lives in a castle you know...Mr. Noir. I don't know that I'd want to live in something so unnecessarily big...but it somehow suits him. I wonder if he gets lonely in it sometimes though."
