Day 397 [action | closed to Kitty]
[Chekov wakes up on Day 397 in a room that isn't his and with his arm draped over Kitty, who isn't usually in a bed with him. Usually no one's in bed with him. Usually he doesn't even bother sleeping in a bed. It's a disorienting way to regain consciousness for a number of reasons.

But he's quick to remember yesterday. Specifically the part of yesterday that involved Kitty asking him (with notecards--it was a strange day) to come over. She had seemed sad, but communication issues prevented him from learning why. Why hadn't really mattered once she'd curled up next to him.

He snuggles closer to her even though it would be wisest to get up. On one hand, he'd determined that giving her space was the best thing to do. On the other hand, they had ended up in bed together--fully clothed, but in bed nonetheless--and that had been her decision, so he can tell himself that Kitty doesn't want that much space after all.]

	Really? [She likes hearing that.] then it would be silly not to, right? Science would want us to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes, really. [He's usually not kept up by nightmares (although those are inevitable) so much as a loud brain and poor sleep habits. Having someone there makes it easier to stay quiet and in bed.] In this matter, I care much more about what you want us to do than what science wants. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She smiles with a light blush. You're going to make her say it without couching it in other terms, huh? Meanie.] I want it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He wanted an unambiguous answer, okay? Just once! And he's so pleased to have one.] One thing: we can never do this when there is somewhere to be in the morning. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[It feels pretty good to give one honestly.] Do you have a lot of early morning meetings to worry about, mister? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-10-25 09:41 pm UTC (link)
	Only if you call them. [Not that she's the boss of the Defense Force, exactly, but she's the only person motivated enough to get a meeting rolling.] Or if my captain calls them, which is less likely. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-10-25 09:43 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah? How do you feel about that here? Like you're Star Fleet officers? [Curious, because she has thoughts and feelings about being one of the X-Men.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I haven't been an officer for more than a year. The entire crew could be here and I think I still wouldn't feel like one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-10-25 09:52 pm UTC (link)
	Okay, well, title aside then. I mean, do you still feel like a part of that after everything? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-10-25 10:01 pm UTC (link)
	[He strokes her hair while he thinks. It's a harder question than it needs to be.] I have no idea. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-10-25 10:04 pm UTC (link)
	[She leans in against him, resting her head on his shoulder.] It's been awhile. And it's been a lot. [Speaking for both of them really.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-10-25 10:44 pm UTC (link)
	Most of it has also been good. [He smiles at her because, while there have been plenty of bad things--most of them in the City, and most of those things that he hasn't shared with Kitty--this part is definitely good.] That makes it more difficult to be a part of everything that isn't here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-10-25 10:52 pm UTC (link)
	Most? [She can't help but to smile back at him.] You're a really good liar. [She may not let him answer just yet. She needs to kiss him right now. Priorities.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-10-25 11:04 pm UTC (link)
	[Hopefully she didn't really want an answer since he isn't going to remember that there was a question. All of this easy affection is slowing down his thoughts (which are usually many and scattered) and making him feel warm and heavy. It's nice. He kisses her lazily. Neither of them are in a hurry to go anywhere, obviously.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-10-25 11:13 pm UTC (link)
	[Answers are extremely overrated. Definitely no hurry to go anywhere, but she might just encourage that lazy kiss to be more active. She presses in for more.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[It doesn't take much coaxing to encourage him to more. He pulls her on top of him and wraps his arms around her.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-10-26 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	[It's like he knew where she wanted to be. Maybe they have a psychic bond. Okay, it's probably just an obvious thing to want. It only encourages her more and she didn't need any encouragement!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-10-26 10:39 pm UTC (link)
	[Maybe he just wanted gravity to help hold them together! There's a lot more passion than sweetness here now. Chekov rests a hand on the back of Kitty's head in gentle encouragement for her to deepen the kiss.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-10-26 10:42 pm UTC (link)
	[Using physics against her? You cad! And yet she still deepens the kiss just as he planned! Falling right into his trap and seemingly enjoying it too. They just can't go too far or there are going to be consequences. But she isn't thinking about that right now. She's thinking about kissing him. Touching him. Feeling his heart beat against her chest.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-10-26 10:55 pm UTC (link)
	[Why study physics if you can't occasionally use it to your advantage? Since he's still cognizant enough to know that there are lines they can't cross, his hands don't explore like they want to. He's very much into this as evidenced by the way his breath catches in a quiet moan and makes no attempt to discourage Kitty.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[His hands are wiser than hers. Fingers are already sliding up under the hem of his shirt to touch the warm skin beneath it.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-10-26 11:11 pm UTC (link)
	[It's like all of his nerves are concentrated in the skin under her fingertips and the last thing he wants to do is make her stop. That would be the smart thing to do. It's the only thing to do.] Kitty... [He draws back only the smallest bit, so so reluctant.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-10-26 11:15 pm UTC (link)
	Don't say it. [Because she knows. She knows they can't, but she still wants to keep going without thinking about where they have to stop even if that will just make it harder. There are still things they could do. She has a red band. But just thinking about the particulars is enough to cool her down. Because it's too formal. Too much.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	candothat 2016-10-26 11:23 pm UTC (link)
	I won't. [He wishes he hadn't said anything at all because now something that they had a moment before is gone. Maybe whatever punishment the wardens would give them (he doesn't even have a red band) would have been worth it if they could have gone just a little farther. He smooths her hair back and tries not to analyze the warm, tight feeling in his chest.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
