And today was a sort of lazy day but I got Syfy's Alice on DVD (eeee, cut scenes of joy) and a few other bits before hitting the tax man and then the gym. Yes, second week of Getting Healthy starts strong... And the tax man's words mean the bathroom renovation is a GO. Mmm, can't wait. New tub.

World: Anima Sola (whoa, blast from the past)
Characters: Fin, Uri



"I... That is, I really wish you wouldn't do that."

She looked at him with wide, amber eyes and moved to rest her chin on his shoulder. A lazy smile curved her lips. Bringing a hand up, she idly traced circles over his bare chest. A laugh slipped from her as he shivered and closed his eyes in reaction. "Do what?" she purred. "Not this, I hope."

A shuddering breath slipped between his lips. "N-no. I mean..." He sighed and reached up to wrap his fingers around her wrist, pinning her hand to his chest. Then he reopened his eyes and craned his neck to better study her face. She immediately cast off the smile and offered him the most sweet of expressions. His thumb massaged the back of her hand in thoughtful circles. "I mean watching me sleep."

"Oh."

"I know you do it." He allowed his head to fall and brought his other arm around to curve at her shoulders, fingers stroking her hair.

"Don't you trust me?"

His hand stilled and he clutched her closer in a clear paroxysm of guilt and apology. "Of course I do. I trust you with everything, Fin. My entire life. All of it. I just..."

"You just don't want me to watch you sleeping." She shifted beneath his hold, squirming until he loosened and she could wriggle upwards, face level with his. "But I like to," she whispered. "Do you know why I like to?"

"... No." His answer was delayed by the soft look in her eyes. "I know why I like to watch you."

Her finger pressed against his lips gently and she followed the touch with a kiss. "I don't know why either," she admitted. "You're so handsome and pure and mine. That might have something to do with it. My kind are notoriously gluttonous but..." She tilted her head and smiled at him again. The expression held puzzlement this time, a rare look of discomfort on her lovely face. "I don't know," she repeated. "I just know I can't help it. It's a need. Almost like the hunger."

Uri rolled a bit, automatically adjusting her against his body until they were lying face to face. He lifted his hand to trace along her cheek, an almost painful reverence growing in his expression. She watched him with honest curiosity and wet her lips absently, waiting. Finally, he smiled. "It's love," he murmured. "I think it's most certainly love."

"Oh." Fin closed her eyes and lifted her chin slightly, mouth offered in the familiar, heart-stopping manner. "Alright then. I watch over what I love." The way she said the words made it sound as if she were tasting them for the truth. When he pressed his lips to hers, he felt the tension flow away and she shifted closer, warmer. "What I love." Words repeated and lost in the second kiss lingered, more true for all the rarity of them.

1. Eeee Alice, can't wait to see it! ^____^

2. Yay Getting Healthy! I'm trying to think of ways to trick myself into working out on the Wii when I get home in the evening, and I think the best way is to just suck it up and Do It instead of going "argh too tired blah foo".

3. EEEEEE bathroom renovation GO! ^____^

4. Anima Sola? I'm curious now, if only to find out more about these two... XD
