presto (dungeons and dragons), sookie stackhouse

Who: Sookie and Presto
What: Comfort, food, and likely no small amount of cynicism
When/Where: Backdated to last night, Sookie's house in Southern Louisiana
Warnings: Cuteness? I'm not sure.

Sookie was currently curled up in a ball on her couch, bag of M&Ms in hand, staring through the television which was currently playing some old movie she didn't even know. She hadn't moved for most of the day, her clothes didn't match, her hair was unwashed- it was the definition of 'wallowing', but she couldn't help it. First her grandma, before coming to this place, and now her best friend. It was... almost too much.

But Presto was coming over. And he offered to bring her food. Suddenly realizing she looked like Hell, she sat up, running a hand through her hair to try and pull it back, at least. It wasn't like she thought he expected much, but it was human decency, to not want to look like death warmed over.

And at least she'd be up, when the doorbell rang.

	His blush went purple. "I just... you deserve it. Nobody should be alone." He looked down. "I know what alone is like, and it sucks." (Reply to this) (Thread)

	"Well, it's a damn good thing we're not alone now, then, isn't it?" Despite her own melancholy, she hated seeing others in the same position, and could put aside her worry over herself for a minute, to dote on him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He smiled at her. "I am, I admit, rather glad of that fact right now." He peeked up at her, biting his lip, grinning a little. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The look on his face was really too cute, and she giggled softly as she pressed up again to kiss him; the corner of his mouth this time, if only to avoid his teeth. "You're adorable, d'you know that?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He blushed again and laughed, and kissed her back, square on the lips, a quick, flashing press of lips, then ducked his head again. "I'm just me, Sookie, but I'm glad you think so." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	With a light sigh, Sookie reached over with a hand to pull his chin back up to face her, giving him a lingering, but still chaste, kiss. "And you are a wonderful person. Not everybody'd come running for a girl they just met, y'know," (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He blushed and shivered at the kiss, eyes darkening, and nodded. "Maybe so, but you're a friend, and a special person, and I've fought demons for strangers. I reckon I'd walk through Hell for a person I really cared about." His gaze was open and on her, and he was plainly speaking of her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She gave him a warm smile, looking down at her lap, obviously a little surprised at his words. Still, it was a pleasant thing, and when she looked back to his face, her eyes were a bit darker as well, if a little wet.

Looking like she was about to say something, she decided not to trust her voice, simply scooting to lie against him again, head resting against his. Holly had just started to play 'Moon River', and Sookie hummed along, finding herself in much better spirits.

	He smiled and gently hugged her close, turning to watch the movie with a wondering smile on his face, and a lift to his heart. This was fantastic! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

They watched the movie in relative silence, only broken by Sookie laughing or sighing at the appropriately girly moments. Sometime in the course of the hour, she moved to lie down, using Presto's leg as a pillow. It was obvious she was more comfortable, which was good. The downside to that, though, was her emotional exhaustion getting the better of her, leaving Sookie asleep as the credits rolled.

His eyes went a little wide at how she laid and her her head was, but he smiled softly down at her, and shifted so she could be comfortable. He was glad she was relaxed and he gently stroked her hair at times.

She was asleep as the movie ended and he was content to let her, watching her with a fond smile on his face. As long as she did not turn the wrong way in sleeping or waking, she would never know how much she turned him on, which, well, right now, she did not need to know. And he almost felt guilty about.

So he breathed, and watched her, and smiled, and let her sleep, slowly relaxing himself, until he thought he might fall asleep right there.

Some time later, Sookie woke with the light gasp of someone ending a dream, turning to glance up at Presto with a bleary smile.

"M'sorry. You coulda woke me, don't need to..." She let her words trail off as she levered herself to sit up, unsure of just how long she'd been on Sam's leg and knowing how painfull that kind of pins-and-needles were.

"What time's it?"

	He gently touched her face and stroked her hair. "You have nothing to apologize for, and nothing to worry about." He glanced at a clock. "Sometime well after the deepest dark. I think I snoozed for a little while as well." He shifted once she was up and turned more to face her. "And I enjoyed it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dangerwhore 2008-12-26 10:34 pm UTC (link)
	She smiled a little at that, leaning in one more time to press her lips gently to his. That taken care of, she glanced at the clock, making a little face. "There's no reason for you to go home this late. Wanna just... stay? Breakfast is somethin' even I can cook." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	His lips met hers in that softy kiss, and he nodded. "If you don't mind me occupying your sofa, I would not mind staying at all. I can think of a thousand places worse to be than in your company." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Sookie made a brief confused face before nodding at him, smiling lightly. "Okay. I can go get you some sheets'r somethin'. If you're sure you don' want the bed?" She was obviously tired enough to sleep just about anywhere. There was no reason for him to suffer on her account.

It crossed her mind, briefly, to offer to just share the bed, but she didn't want to make him uncomfortable.

	He shook his head. "I'd not put you out of your bed, Sookie. I'm enough of a man to not take that from you." His eyes shuttered slightly as he too thought about sharing a bed with her, but other than his face coloring, he gave no indication of it. "Wake me up early, and I'll whip up some coffee."

She couldn't help notice the thought, but knew they shouldn't really do much together tonight. Not after her mood. Even if, even though, she wanted to, it would just feel like some form of rebound. And she didn't want that to cloud the hole thing. So she just nodded, not mentioning his though.

"Gimme a minute t'find you a pillow an' whatnot," She stood and headed down the hall, rummaging in her closet for bedding.

	He nodded as he rose, and watched, stretching. This would be an interesting night... --Fade-- (Reply to this) (Parent)
