❣ (and I'm actually on the rite blog this time thank the lordy)
He smells sharp, the stinging end of the ashes of a cigarette. Choking, bold. Something that has been worn down far too many times but still emerged with a spark. His kiss tastes remarkably sweeter, the linger of alcohol staining his lips.He’s all too much and far too little, all at once. Something- someone, she had been scared to meet for far too long. Yet- he’s here. Beside her, blanket curled in layers over his shoulders to keep the cold from coming through, eyes glistening in the starlight. And in that moment she could have said she loved him. A vocal stall, voice croaking and dying out, expression faltering and head dropping as he turned to look back at her. The hopeful look in return should have been enough to tell him. Soft eyes paired with a softer smile. Something that felt too foreign and calm for someone that had been too used to tearing others down.
There was no response other than turning back to the darkened sky. The cold of the fire escape almost burnt as her bare palm met it, flinching away to bury it beneath Spencer’s blankets, fingers straying to try and find his own. “Oi, pup, watch where you’re goin’ with that- might get a surprise.”
Her nose scrunched almost immediately in feigned disgust, fingers balling to a fist to come into contact with the meat of his chest. It was gentle, only meant to be teasing as her free hand ran through his hair, thumb trailing the white streak. It was cute, the truthful origin of the ‘skunk’ nickname, the persistent scent of smoke was something she had long grown used to.“Ew. gross, and here I was, trying to be cute.”
Another gentle shove followed, pushing him back down against the metal with a laugh, hair falling loose as she leant over him. Hand curling into the fabric of the blanket, she pulled it over her own shoulders, shivering slightly as a sharp breeze cut the still air. Smile curling the corners of her lips as his palms settled on the small of her back, fingers gently playing with her oversized shirt.Bad to the bone.It was cringe-worthy, they both knew that, and judging from the stare shot at her from James when he first laid eyes on it, it was deemed something that should only be worn in the house. Sarah figured Spence would claim she looked better without it on anyway.
“You done looking at the stars, bear?” There was no chance given to grant him the chance to make a witty response, 'aren’t you a star?’, before she pressed her lips against his own. The fingers softly resting on the back of her head was signal enough that he was happy with the sudden action. Pulling her head back, she leant in again to pepper his cheeks with shorter kisses, giggle rising in her throat. Cupping his jaw, she trailed her fingers along, teetering off at his chin as she rose to her feet.“C'mon, stinky, can’t stay out all night. Some people have to sleep, y'know.”
