Well, that was fast. From zero to uncomfortable confessions in less than fifteen minutes. At least Eames was little, which meant she was much less compelled to tell him how much she loved him and more compelled to tell him how absolutely adorable he was. But she hadn't worried about telling him anyway; he seemed to see her unfortunate tendency to talk without thinking as endearing. Arthur, on the other hand... he was like a particularly tetchy cat who didn't like people at all and especially hated it when they tried to make friends. But who would occasionally curl up in your lap and purr happily only to stiffen and take off and claw your leg to shreds as it went.

When he didn't reply after her outburst Ariadne let her head thunk against the wall a few times. It made her feel a little better, strangely enough, and after that she just curled up on top of her pillows and took deep breaths and tried not to freak out. She was not entirely successful. And then her PDA buzzed and it was Arthur and her heart tried to leap into her throat and sink into her stomach at the same time. Fuck. She pulled on a pair of jeans but didn't bother changing out of the t-shirt she'd woken up in, and after a nervous glance in the mirror - her hair wasn't a total dandelion mess, it would have to do - she opened the door.

And almost had a heart attack, because Arthur was standing right there. "Jesus Christ!"

	The sigh Ariadne let out was long and sent a lock of her curly hair flying. "I haven't known you as long as Eames has. I'm still working on figuring out when you're kidding." But she let him turn her face and kissed back, smiling slightly. "Okay. Relaxing. Right." And with that she slowly fell back on the bed, sprawling with a grin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"If it's any consolation, I let you in a lot faster then I let him in," he breathed the words against her cheek as he rolled half onto her. Arthur moved loose strands of hair gently off of her face and kissed her once more, "And this is why I like these conversations in person. The internet is incredibly impersonal."

"You did?" That wasn't something she'd expected, and she stared at him between kisses as if searching for more details. "Huh. But I guess this is plenty personal enough, isn't it?" Hard to argue when he was kissing her like that. Not that sex and intimacy always went together, but with Arthur it certainly seemed to be the case.

One hand reached up to dig into the product-stiff hair at the back of his head, dislodging it from its smooth style. "I wish you wouldn't wear all this shit in your hair. At least not all the time." At least that was an honest opinion she'd expressed before.

	Arthur pulled back, looking half disappointed at her statement, "You do?" It wasn't something Eames had ever vocally expressed distaste in it before, but if Ariadne was suggesting he switch it up a bit, it wasn't out of reach. "Oh...I just thought it looked nicer like that." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That definitely wasn't the reaction she'd expected. Ariadne attempted a shrug. "I mean, it does look good slicked back. But it's harder to get my hands in this way." Her fingers gripped his hair and she pulled him in closer, smiling. "Like this." And then she kissed him again, nipping at his lower lip. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Despite the thoughts of switching up his hair products from now on, Arthur found himself more then ok with this idea, "Mm..I'll keep that in mind from now on." (Reply to this) (Parent)
