Re: [B&B: Holly & Noah]
Holly was, like, breathtaking. Watching the dude's daily mask of nonchalance sort of slip and give way? Gratifying af. Noah knew Holly was ready for him to kiss him. He felt it. Noah hadn't been lying when he'd said that, like, he took comfort in the dude, in their shared sexuality. Yeah, it was so hot it could make your blood boil too (in a sexy way), but, the more they got to know each other or something—Noah's thoughts didn't get too specific—, the more intimate it got, and Noah found physical contact with the dude a balm. Like, so good. Even just a kiss. Though it was never just a kiss.
Holly's mouth was hard on Noah's, a cant of pressure that expressed things the dude felt in a way Holly himself wouldn't. Noah, having expended most of his jealousy and bad feels at this point, kissed back, like, needy, but also like, succor. When Holly pulled back, Noah's eyes stayed half-lidded a moment as his gaze tracked the dude's glistening lips. He laughed a little, letting his hands fall down the length of Holly's body (as far as the counter would allow), and if the dude let him, he tried to hold one of Holly's hands. He watched Holly swallow thickly, and he felt that, y'all. "I missed you," he said, stupidly earnest about it, like it hadn't been, what? Five hours? Since they'd seen each other.
Noah rounded the counter, keeping his fingers laced with Holly's, if the dude didn't mind, and he drew up beside his husband. The idea of playing some ball with Holly was mad interesting to Noah. Like, he'd never seen Holly get out there and sweat like that, even if he felt the dude's physical exertions over at the base. And, yeah, I mean, Noah did like being physical. "I can take a break." Noah waved his hand at the empty space. People were in town for lunch, upstairs reading, whatever people did. It wasn't like he had to stand guard. He could get someone to keep an eye on the counter. Noah did hesitate enough to glance down at himself. He should probably change. "I should probably change." He reached, if Holly let him, to take the bag the dude hitched onto his shoulder and heft it onto his own. Freeing his hand from Holly's, he looped his arm over the dude's shoulders and gave a sort of side-hug squeeze. "I missed you," the sap said again.
