What: Adrian has something to confess
Where: Alicia's office, Monument Alley
When: Wednesday afternoon
Rating: SFW

After what Susan had said, Adrian hadn't slept a wink. Finally - exhausted - he'd gotten up and made himself a strong up of coffee just as the sun was rising. Three more coffees and a large brunch later, he spent the day in his potions lab, trying his best not to think.

Of course, it's impossible to not think about whatever it is you're thinking about not thinking about! Susan had been uproariously drunk and he probably shouldn't have even kissed her, but honestly it'd been the only thing he could think of to break her concentration and calm her a bit. But then she'd stopped him, and said something that had Adrian up all night and unable to get even a simple Pepper Up set right.

Around 2 in the afternoon, the not thinking thing hadn't panned out and Adrian was at his wits end. Normally someone to sit back and wait for things to happen to him, this simply wasn't information he could sit on, so he showered and changed and headed next door, determined to find out if he was insane, or Susan was just drunk, or maybe they were both right and this could be one of the best things to ever happen to him - or maybe at least he and Alicia would get a good laugh out of it.

It was with that last not-very-comforting thought that he knocked on her office door.

So focused on what could be wrong with Adrian while she called up every diagnosis she knew that involved symptoms like sensory confusion and self-mutilation, Alicia didn’t recognise what was about to happen until his lips were mere millimetres from hers. It was no more than a soft brush, that at the moment felt scorching, making her heart pound hard and her stomach feel as if she was free-falling. And then it was gone, leaving her entranced by the look of his lips for a moment as she added erratic behaviour to the list of symptoms.

It took her a moment before her mind caught up with reality when the thought that it wasn’t her wishful thinking that had her thinking he had just kissed her. He had just kissed her. Adrian had kissed her, and that was huge! Huge! Huge… though that kiss had been so brief, brief enough that she still wasn’t convinced it had actually happened. She raised her gaze to meet his before she took that step that brought her flush against him, and this time when she reached up, it was to cup his jaw to urge his head down and press her lips to his. She kissed him slowly, wanting to leave him no doubt, though a small part of her claimed that if she was ruining their friendship it wouldn’t be for just a small kiss. When the kiss eased off, she didn’t move away, just stayed close with her hand still on his cheek. “Wanting to do this?” she asked him, her voice little more than a whisper.

His breath came out in all one whoosh after she kissed him back - he hadn't been a ruinous prat after all! Well, if that was the same awe in her voice, at least. Adrian nodded, his voice feeling caught completely in his chest, held captive by his hammering heart, surely. He smiled, his eyes lighting up, and grabbed her up in his arms for another kiss, lifting her from the ground easily, making her taller than him. He lifted his face to hers to kiss her, feeling like he'd never been more likely to cheer out loudly than right in this moment.

Alicia nodded, mirroring Adrian; she had been wanting to do this, too, and right now all these feelings came bubbling up, though she paid no attention to the ones not happy and bubbly. The past couple of years they had talked. Everything had come down to them talking, them spending time together talking – sure some would say that they bickered, but it was still talking, and now, when everything seemed to be clicking into place, all they did was look and breath and smile, and good Godric, his smile! The way his eyes lit up making those amazing blue eyes appear even bluer and so full of life and he was smiling because he was looking at her. Alicia’s heart was pounding and she was smiling, feeling like her cheeks might crack from it, but she just couldn’t sto-

She shrieked when Adrian suddenly picked her up, her elbows coming to rest on his shoulders and her fingers delving into his short hair as she first looked down into his face and then smiled into his kiss. Sometime soon, she might ask for an explanation for this sudden change of heart, but for now, she didn’t care and all that really mattered was that he was holding her and they were kissing.
