[Kitty might be a physical girl, but Reid never really was and in many ways that's why it's so easy to just go with it. She makes him feel safe, even with things that he never felt safe with. She leaves him dizzy and breathless and with a racing pulse, and for once it's a good thing. Her body pressed close to his makes every hardship worth it, in some way.
Where she finds the physical rush she's craving, he finds the safety he's been yearning for.
He shifts some against her, letting his hand slide down to wrap around her waist and hold her close. It's all nice and comfortable, this kissing, even if things are heating up by a degree or three.]
