Cat was left speechless in the wake of that kiss. His lips thrummed with the pressure of it, missing the press of Alcuin's and craving its return. Craving so much. Wanting to touch and be with Alcuin in every intimate way. Aroused by him to be sure, but it was all so much more than that. More than lust and pure physical need. Cat wanted to be closer and know Alcuin better. In every way. Close in every way.
His hands slid down and out of his friend's hair, soft as it was. But Cat wanted to touch other things as well. And so he cupped Alcuin's face and began to trace over his friend's beautiful features. Memorizing them more than before. Moving on from there to touch his neck, then pausing.
"Can I?" he asked softly, almost afraid of causing this moment to end. "I want to touch you. Feel you... please?" And have the same returned, but he dared not ask in case Alcuin wasn't prepared to do so himself.
