The touch of their tongues together was almost like fire. Scorching hot. Erik hummed his approval against her lips, pressed just a little more firmly to his as she returned the kiss. Still gentle, though, still just stoking the flames. They had all night, after all, there was time for a slow burn instead of something that flashed white hot and passed before it was acceptable for the birthday boy to leave his own party. After all, Erik couldn't just abandoned all these people that had come out to wish him happy birthday, could he? Of course he couldn't. That was just bad publicity. Bad for his image. A man's image was important, in his line of work, just as important as it would have been in politics... but Erik could get away with a little more, being a rock star, than he could have working for the government. Once more, he thought that was really a good call on his part.
Erik slid his tongue against Holly's, slipping it just past her lips to taste the inside of her mouth. The sweet-sour flavor of her drink was stronger there, mingled with something that, he thought, could only be the natural taste of Holly's mouth. It was a good mix, and he hadn't even deepened his explorations as much as he could, yet. From the hand on the back of his neck, Holly didn't want him to stop any time soon, and Erik was more than happy to satisfy her. After all, he'd be a poor host if he left his date wanting anything, wouldn't he? If Holly wanted him to keep kissing... it wasn't like it was exactly a sacrifice.
His other hand cupped her face, thumb tracing over her cheekbone as he kissed her, still as tender as an open-mouthed kiss could be. The hand on her waist squeezed, still gently, but showing her exactly what kind of strength was in his big hands. Those hands could be dangerous, sure. Even without his gloves on, Erik could be deadly in a hand-to-hand fight. Holly wouldn't know that about him, unless she'd done more digging than he thought... but why would she? It was just a hookup at a party. The knowledge that Holly could give as good as she got was alluring, even though Erik would never even consider using his strength against her. The point, though, was that even if Erik dug the gloves out of the pocket of his jacket, Holly could probably take him in a fight, and that was hot.
