Who: Kallen (

emit) and Rookie (

helljumped)
What: Speaking again after a week of awkward
When: The evening of Dec 12
Where: Seventh floor hallway, followed by room 707
Rating: PG to PG-13?

[Following Alleyne's and Ino's advice of "talk to him about it" from the night before, Kallen has finally decided that a week of not talking to or spending time with her best friend in the castle is enough. She's still sorting out what to say in her head, but she can't wait until she gets that settled; things might take too long, and she doesn't want to risk losing his friendship over this.

So, she finishes climbing the stairs to the seventh floor and stands outside room 707 for a moment before just giving in a knocking.]

Hey, it's me. [She pauses before knocking again.]

I may have mentioned it. [Y-yes.]

How much did you mention? [She's sort of studying him now.]

[Just an easy look because oh god was he not suppose to.]

Not a lot. Just... a couple things.

[The redhead gives him a LOOK and takes a step forward.]

Stoping being so vague. Tell me something specific, or I'm walking out that door right now. [So much bluffing, but it's worth a shot. She honestly doesn't care if he calls it or not.]

[... As hard as it was to intimidate ODSTs, that look still gets Rookie to take a step back out of reaction. Something he did without even thinking, truth be told, and although he could almost tell that she wasn't being serious, Rookie still didn't want to take that chance.]

I didn't give him any specific details, if that's what you're worried about. [A pause.] Just told him that I messed up, and that there... might have been more to the kiss than just the magic - but other than that, nothing.

[There's a moment where Kallen looks at him as if she's considering something before Rookie will her hands on his shoulders, pushing him against the wall of his hallway. Her blue eyes are suddenly serious, and she doesn't break eye contact when she has him pinned.]

Might have been? I dare you to tell me it was just the magic.

[But before he gets the chance to answer, the redhead's fingers are pressing into his skin as she pulls herself up again for another kiss. This is a lot like the first, castle induced one, except the roles are slightly reversed, and Rookie's the one being taken by surprise. She doesn't hold back, either, letting her feelings express themselves here.]

[Only a surprised lift of an eyebrow in response, especially when he realizing that she was quickly pinning him against the wall and staring him down, before Rook lowered his head just a little to return her gaze with one of silent inquiry.

At least until hearing her question, causing that faint tint of red to appear in his face once more -- and had he been given the chance to respond -- would have turned away to sheepishly give his answer.

But was instead met with another kiss. Something that took the soldier a couple of seconds to react to, before he was happily responding with a mixture between a low laugh and a throaty growl. His hands already moving to instinctively settle on her waist, before shifting forwards to make it a bit easier for her to reach him.]

[She's already prepared to make this a kiss more than able to answer the question of 'might be more'-- despite the fact that he's already made it clear there is more-- but when she receives the response she does, Kallen finds herself a little more motivated.

So now, as one hand grips his shoulder more to keep herself up, the other is moved up the back of his neck and into his hair, where she lets her fingers explore by basically massaging his scalp. At the same time, she leans against him, keeping him against the wall unless he decides otherwise. She won't object either way.]

[There was a shiver, but whether or not it was simply from the fact that he was still standing around without a shirt on or because he was enjoying the way her hand trailed across his skin -- ok, yeah. It was totally because of that, and considering Rookie was on the very edge of purring as he muttered something under his breath, it likely made it even more obvious to Kallen that he was loving ever second of this.

As this continued, though, he grew more energetic. That playful personality becoming more apparent as his hands moved from her waist to the middle of her back and then down - purposely skipping over a certain area with a mildly teasing smirk - before he was lifting her up again. If only to make it easier on the both of them, provided she didn't make a point to protest, since there was still somewhat of a height difference between them.]

[Kallen feels the shiver from him, and she can't help but get a few goosebumps herself, both from the fact that she's enjoying this as well and that her actions are able to elicit such a response from him. Her fingers continue to mess with his hair while her other hand moves around his shoulders, nails lightly grazing along the chosen path.

There is no protesting on her end at all as Rookie lifts her up, much like the first time. In fact, when she realizes what he's going to do, she uses the arm around his shoulders to help pull herself up and level with him. A few moments later, her legs are wrapped around him, and she's smirking into the kiss, only to slowly pull away and leave just enough space between them for her to speak and him to miss the contact.]

Let's try again. [Kallen's voice is soft, teasing and almost baiting him. She places a quick kiss on his jawline before she continues.]

Think there's more to this than magic now?

[The pleased noise he had been making as he shifted into her touch, quickly turned into a somewhat annoyed rumbling when she pulled away. Which was then followed by a look as both his eyebrows furrowed, because he knew she was teasing him, but he couldn't help that almost hidden smile as he tilted his head forwards to lazily trail a couple kisses down along her neck.]

Maybe. [He mumbled softly against her skin, planting one more kiss just under her chin before pulling away with a breathy laugh.] Might need a little more convincing, though.

[Kallen can't help it when she squirms a little in his hold as the kisses begin, and a small moan of pleasure manages to escape her. She's well aware if he lets her down now, it may take her a few moments to remember how to stand properly, and her leverage in the situation would all but vanish. So to keep that from happening she tightens her one arm's hold around his shoulders and nestles her head under his chin when he finishes. He can probably hear the smirk in her voice as she quietly responds.]

You are such a bad liar right now. [And now Rookie should feel a string of light kisses following his exposed collar bone, her hair tickling his chin as her head moves along.]

[Good thing Rookie had no intentions of putting her down, but it does take him a second to gather his senses long enough to form proper words and try to ignore that pleasant, hazy sensation slowly forming in the back of his mind.]

Guess I'll have to work on that.

[The next kiss, however, causes his breath to catch before he was idly letting his head fall back against the wall. Each one following getting a blissful murmur before he realized that it was probably a good idea to go ahead and start heading towards the couch - or somewhere that would give him the ability to sit down. Not because Kallen was heavy - women never wear - but because he wanted the ability of touch, and because he was afraid that any strength he still had in his own legs would disappear the longer this continued.

Meaning it wasn't very long before Rookie finally pushed off the wall with some reluctant, and started carefully making his way towards the living room. Every step he took deliberately slow and careful, but when he was currently burying his face in her hair and placing a light kiss every now and again near the top of her head, it wasn't much of a surprise.]

[His reactions are more than she hoped for, and there's a leap of excitement inside her when his breath catches and the noises begin again. Her hand moves from his hair to rest on his shoulder again as his head hits the wall. Kallen can't help it, this whole situation causes her to give off a slight giggle, both from happiness and from how this is turning out. It was not what she had expected in the slightest when she had come up to talk to him. Thinking about what she had expected causes her to hug Rookie more if it were even possible.

By the time he's pushing off the wall to walk to the living room, she's stopped 'tormenting' him for the moment. Her head is resting against his chest now, and her eyes are closed as she simply enjoys being where she is. Plus, having him so obviously enjoying this too provides her with some reassurance about the whole thing. So she can't help but murmur something under her breath as he takes them to the couch.]

Thanks.
