Talking to Samandriel usually soothed her, but knowing he was in pain and she could do nothing made her stomach feel tight. And on this of all nights, her father was working late. She sighed a little to herself, figuring that she'd take dinner to him instead. He'd like that. She hummed a little as she made a nice pesto, spread it on some bread he'd made a few days earlier, then added turkey and some sun dried tomatoes. Add to that some crudites (because French for chopped veggies was so much better than calling them what they were) and a bottle of white wine to split completed the meal.

She could've gone to him in the jeans and button down shirt she'd gone to classes wearing, but what was the fun in that? She slipped into a dress her father had picked out for her, one they'd gotten tailored so it hugged her body even more perfectly, and a pair of black flats. Within ten minutes she was knocking on his door, tote bag with food at her feet.

	"Samandriel has little room to judge," Hannibal points out and brushes his thumb against her lips. "You do make the most interesting friends, my dear." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She lets her tongue brush against the pad of his thumb, kittenish, smiling. "I've been friends with him for a long time. He's only gotten so interesting pretty recently." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I had noticed." The comment is slightly dry, but he smiles and strokes her cheek with the backs of his fingers. "You always look so lovely, my dear Abigail. However do you manage it?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

She closes her eyes and has to fight everything inside her to keep from crawling into his lap. Instead, she just butts her face lightly into his touch.

"I'm in love, that helps. And I've been sleeping better lately." Since she abandoned the pretense of sleeping in her own room, she's slept better every night. Even when she has nightmares, she wakes up, rolls over, and presses her tearstained cheek to his chest. It means more than she can say.

	"I wish I could make your nightmares disappear completely, but I'm glad to at least provide some comfort." He strokes his fingers through her hair and tugs lightly on a lock before shifting back in his chair again, reluctantly. "I love you very much, Abigail. I wish I could protect you from all that might hurt you in the world." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I love you too, Daddy. And you do. You might not keep me immune from it, but ... I don't know, I feel like you'll keep me from breaking under the weight of it." And she prefers it that way; who would want to be immune from all the pain of the world?

"My scar reminds me of a time I was once in great danger and I survived it. I came through the other side. I haven't had that in my waking life, but it makes me a little bolder." She dabbed at her mouth with a napkin before standing up and sitting in his lap. "Pull my hair again?" Bolder indeed; she likes who she's becoming with her father, an educated, sleek, knowing thing with pointed fangs and sharp claws.

At least they've finished their meal.

Hannibal strokes his hands over her thighs, pushing her skirt up slightly, thumbs skimming along the hemline. Then he complies to her request and wraps an arm around her waist, tangling a hand in her hair and tugging lightly, pressing a warm kiss to the scar on her throat.

"You are a very brave girl, Abigail. You have more strength than you know."

She likes when she can be commanding like this, when she can boss him around a tiny bit. Gasping, she closes her eyes and lets her head fall back on his shoulders. "I don't feel brave that often," she mumbles. "Sometimes I feel like you are my bravery. Just ... you, walking around, every day." Like she was a princess and he her knight.

"Do you think anyone knows?" It's September, she doubts anything will happen since her birthday is so early in October, but it still feels deliciously wrong of them to be necking in his office.

"I doubt it," he says, nuzzling along her neck to kiss the hollow of her throat. "Only those you've told. Which, I believe, is only our angelic friend. And I haven't breathed a word of it to anyone. I don't see why anyone should have guessed."

They've been so careful, confining their trysts to their own house and playing the part of father and daughter in public. Just a little while longer, at least, until he no longer needs to be her legal guardian.

"Just one more month," she murmurs, voice already a little bit lower. Samandriel once teasingly asked her about if she'd had her wedding planned yet, which she'd honestly replied no; Abigail is far too focused on getting to October 10th.

"Only Samandriel, yes." She runs a finger over the scar on his cheek before kissing it. "I love you too much to jeopardize this." She can think of the million ways it could go wrong, and as such, avoids each and every one.

	"It might be best to keep things quiet, even after your birthday. Not hide, not exactly," he adds, before she can protest. "But it might be safest not to announce ourselves. Take things slowly, you understand." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	laniidae 2013-09-09 04:01 pm UTC (link)
	She nods. "I know. I won't go singing it from the hilltops, but it'll be nice not to have to be so careful. I was going to legally dissolve your guardianship then, too." She strokes his cheek, letting her forehead rest against his. "Not because you're a bad father, you're the best, but because ... well. You know." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	poisonlittleboy 2013-09-09 04:12 pm UTC (link)
	"That would make things less... sticky, in the end. Though I would miss being your father, in a way." He smiles softly and strokes his fingers through her hair more tenderly now, nudging their noses together. "I will love you, no matter what legal status I have with you. You will always be my girl." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	laniidae 2013-09-09 04:21 pm UTC (link)
	"You'll always be my father," she murmurs, kissing him gently. "I love you too. Always, and in every way." It's a heady thing to love someone so all-encompassingly, and she can't help but hold tightly to it. "I have to admit, I'll kind of miss sneaking around. Just a little." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	poisonlittleboy 2013-09-09 04:27 pm UTC (link)
	"While sneaking around is enjoyable, it does have unfortunate legal implications for me," he points out, not unkindly. "Besides which, we still ought to be sneaky if we're doing this sort of thing in my office. Illicit trysts are still possible, even when relationships are legal." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	laniidae 2013-09-09 05:55 pm UTC (link)
	She smiles, kissing him again. "I know. Which is why I do it. But don't worry, my birthday's coming up. Are you going to throw me a party?" Her lips bite gently at the place underneath his jaw, grinning. "And what sort of thing are we doing in your office, Doctor Lecter?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	poisonlittleboy 2013-09-10 03:16 am UTC (link)
	"I'm going to throw you a magnificent party. And then another, for just the two of us." Hannibal tips his head back a bit, obligingly. "We're exchanging kisses in my office, which is not what my office is meant for. Fortunately, I am not expecting any other patients this evening." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I'll bet you anything that the private party will be all the more magnificent." Abigail nips a tiny bit harder, loosening his tie to expose more of his neck, smiling at him. "Admit it, your blood's pumping a little faster."

As if to test that theory, she takes his pulse with her lips, eyes closed. "Do you have any idea," she murmurs, "how many times I've thought of this?" Of kissing him in his office, of crawling into his lap - she's thought of both since she met him when she was younger and he was just Mr. Lecter.

"My heart always beats faster, around you." His hands find her thighs again, stroking restlessly but staying above her skirt for the time being.

"Tell me what exactly you've thought of. I suspect it's something beyond just kisses." He's imagined her plenty of times, since they've begun their relationship. Bent over his desk, or spread out on his settee. Or right here, in his lap. Where she seems to belong.

He could drive her insane with his hands, and there are times that Abigail wonders if he hasn't already.

Taking his tie off, she folds it carefully and sets it on his desk, smiling darkly at him. "Well, the first time I thought of you, I was fourteen. Not exactly heavy stuff, that." Her careful, tiny fingers unbutton his vest, and she kisses him between unfastenings. "Well, I don't know, you're so fond of your office chair," she murmurs, voice thick. "You can sit in it, and maybe I can too?"

	Hannibal squeezes her thighs with a soft moan and reluctantly unfolds her from his lap, standing and shifting to his office chair before pulling her down to straddle him again. "At fourteen? No, it wouldn't have been. But what about more recently." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"At fourteen, I just wanted to kiss you." She moves from how he's pulled her down to sit down in his lap, facing away from him. "This, this I thought about yesterday." She leans back against him, kissing his neck and raising a hand to curl her fingers in his hair. Her legs naturally splay a bit wider, and she smirks at him.

"Why do you think I take such long showers, Daddy?"

It drives him mad that the angle isn't quite right for the sort of kisses he wants to share with her, but he placates himself with dragging parted lips over her neck.

"And here I thought it was to wash that beautiful hair of yours." He allows himself to venture under her skirt this time, palms smoothing over her inner thighs as he spreads her legs wider. "I think of you in the shower as well."

	laniidae 2013-09-10 12:22 pm UTC (link)
	She's aware that he can't quite kiss her how he wants to, but she gasps when his lips hit her neck. "Oh, I can do that fast by now," she murmurs, biting her lower lip as his hands move over skin. "Seems like we're just wasting water, doesn't it?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	poisonlittleboy 2013-09-11 02:48 am UTC (link)
	"We could try combining our showers. Would that save water to your satisfaction?" He teases his fingers along the edges of her underwear, then drags them down along her thighs to her knees again, nipping lightly at her ear. "We'd have to get up earlier. So neither of us run the risk of being late." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
