Dances and LEtting the night Settle [MOUSE]

[•Mouse•]

She laughed softly as he began to describe what he planned on doing. She got a bit more comfrotable by moving to be closer and leaning her head on the spot where neck meets shoulder. Resting her forhead on the side of his neck she looked a head and thought. What he suggested sounded like fun and she would gladly take part in it. " I think that's a great plan. The lake is more my style. Cafe's tend to get overly crowded at times. A lake however has many places where one can sit and have a personal conversation with someon of signifcant importance." She smiled as she spoke, not meaning to use so many eliquent and large words. But, it was Valerie and it seemed to be in her nature.

" I don't know. What should we do?" She asked, allowing her eyes to settle at the side of his face she could see. Though her pale eye were observing that face the while while that she had been speaking. His features enthrawled her. They grabbed her attention and kept her pale purple eyes settled upon him and him alone. The sky was beautiful at night, she knew this. But the girl only seemed to want to look at him. His eyes, well structured face, nose, and of course the purple colored servey team seemed to linger on his lips. She remembered the touch of those soft fleshy morsals on her own lips and smiled a bit for no apparent reason. Or, so he might think.

[Marr-ee]

Anthony watched as she laughed, yet he found himself smiling as well. Her body was now relying upon his to keep her safe, comfortable and stable. She was already trusting him to take care of her in this manner and that made him feel higher than the skys. "I like the Lake.... the sand inbetween your toes... the earth... I've been known to mold the sand seeing as how it's earth... and make the most wonderful sand castles. All the kids were jealous with me during the castle contests. Kinda funny, huh?" He remenisist to her, letting his humorous nature take place again. It seemed that with being with her was making him be more himself. "The lake is perfect... I do like swimming!" He told her and thought about the fun that could be played in the water. He looked down noticing that her gaze was still on him, which made him self conciously grin with a slightly laughter errupting. "Well, Val... I do know what I want to do.." He said as he neared her face again, letting his free hand gently cup her chin and lift it up. In the angle they were sitting, he leaned her over a little bit more and slowly let his lips meet hers. Don't pull away from me.. Don't....

[•Mouse•]

Caught only by surprise for a moment, Val smiled, closed her eyes and wrapped an arm around his neck. She wouldn't pull back. Not now. The other arm wrapped about his neck, pulling him deeper into the kiss. It was intoxicating, his kisses. They caught her breathless and yet she wanted more. If she wasn't busy kissing the boy, she would smile in complete bliss. Her stomach did several flips from the pressure of his lips. It had started so gentle and became much more forceful when she pulled him closer yet again. Valerie was lost in the kiss, her heart racing and pounding trying to break free of her chest it seemed.

[Marr-ee]

Anthony felt her pull closer to him, a sudden jerk in his stomach went with it. Her lips so soft on his, seemed to stay put. He could tell she wasn't going anywhere and that's what he wanted. When he first came to the dance, this is certainly not what he expected happening. He expected sitting at the table, his feet seering in pain, and watching everyone else in the danger room dance with their dates, but it wasn't the vision at hand.
He felt her heart pounding from being so close to him and he wrapped his arm under her back and the other across her stomach as he layed her across his lap, letting him hover over her. THeir kiss not broken like the first time, because this time he knew she wanted it just as bad as him. That was the power behind it. He carressed her back as the kiss continued.

[•Mouse•]

She flet him move her to his lap and thought nothing of it. She felt the hand on her stomach and it sent butterflies loose inside her and she wanted to giggle from the feeling. But not right now, now was far to important. She broke the kiss to catch her breathe, a slow breaking at that. And when she would get half way through pulling her lips apart from his she couldn't be able to do it and once more forced them onto his. Finally, after a few moments of trying so hard to free her lips from his (And going back for another kiss) she caught her breathe as only an inch was between their lips. " You know." She laughed softly, her voice seemed to show she was completely breathless from the time they had been kissing just seconds before. " I thought my night was going to be boring." She kissed his lips softly before talking again. " I was wrong." She finished with the softist of whispers, a smile pulling at her lips. They throbbed from the constant pressure of Anthony's lips on her. Valerie was enjoying it, no, loving the moments when the two seemed as one.

Little did they know Roxanna had returned to her place of watching and stood with a shocked look for merely a second. " Heh, finally someone for Valerie." She said to herself from inside. A hand touched the glass softly, as she watched alittle while longer. A smile had played at Roxanna's childish features. And for a moment, just a fleeting moment, she looked mature and responsible. It looked like all her childish actions were an act to keep her sister close. But Carmela came bounding off and ushered Roxanna away again. It took Carmela some doing as Roxanna kept her hand firm on the window and watched before being dragged away. Away from the window with an image of her sister's happiness. Of course, her features shifted into their youthful and energetic regularity and she bounced off after Carmela.

The image of her sister at her happist she had been in years, was what Roxanna was left with. The sight of Valerie as she was, on Anthony's lap, with her arms about his neck and shoulders. Her forehead resting against his, a smile on her face and her eyes closed. It was what Valerie needed. A way to escape and Roxanna was happy. Thank you, kind Cowboy.[/i] Though the youngest of the sisters before disappearing into the party once more.

[Marr-ee]

What a wonderful night. I'm with the most wonderful girl... she kisses like a firey passion and she's hot. I couldn't have asked for anything more. If this night ended with just one last kiss, I will live with purpose, and I will go on with thoughts of this night, and then I will die happy. So happy. Valerie, I want to get to know you better, I want you to stay in my arms forever... I want you! All those thoughts ran through his mind as he felt her lips disappear from his nad he questioned why, but felt the breath of her on his lips, which gave his tense lips something more to want again. More breath... more feeling... more flesh. "I knew my night wasn't going to be boring when I met you... on the dance floor... I knew there was something there! Maybe it was the punch? YOu think?" He joked as he looked at her lavendar eye's, curious as to what was going to happen next.

Anthony let a sigh come out of his lips and his head moved backwards momentarily, the adams apple very noticible from his angled neck. It moved as he swallowed and he then brought down his neck to look at her again. He smiled at her and then used the hand that was on her stomach and brought it up to her head, allowing himself to play with a stray strand of hair that fell from it's position in the moving of her on his lap. Something so beautiful about her was now more than he could ever want and he wished that this night would never end, but if did, he would definatly come back for more later.

"So, Is there anything else you'd like to know about me? or Do you just want to leave it with that?" He said looking around at the windows of the dance. For a second there, he thought he caught a glimpse of a girl, but it quickly disappeared just as soon as he saw it. "I wonder who?" He thought out loud but kept it quiet as he bend down, taking his attention off the window, giving her a soft kiss this time. The force of his lips alot softer this time. Raising an eyebrow, he took in the view of her from his angle. "Perfect!"

[•Mouse•]

" You really area sweet talker, you know that?" She laughed as her leaned back and swallowed. She watched his adam's apple as he did so and when he looked back to her, she smiled sweetly. " How about a little more, then we call it a night?" She suggested, wanting to learn a little more about the boy whom she happened to be both making out with and whose lap she sat in. She felt the soft kiss and smiled a bit more.

" What's perfect?" She asked, raising a brow in confusion. It had caught her off gaurd a bit and the girl was completely confused about what he meant. And who was he wondering about? Was someone watching? Valerie was a bit lost in these few things but settled a hand on his cheek once more. A caress from her thumb showed she was still enthrawled by his appearence.

" My mask is still on!" Laughed the girl as she reached up to touch the mask. She smiled and felt teh ribbons untie themselves. A tender hand removed the mask and settled it on the ground by the bench. " Much better." She muttered, returning her hand to the cheek it had been resting on. " So, just. Start with a few basic things. Anything. I wanna know it all." She smiled as she spoke with a tender voice. Her thoughts ran along the same lines as his did. Wanting to stay like this, wanting to know him bettered. Feeling that this was an amazing night and not wanting it to end. Her mind screamed that he not let her go, not now or ever.

[Marr-ee]

Anthony shrugged his shoulders to her when she mentioned his talking ability. If he didn't have a voice what would be the use of it if he didn't use it? Huh? "A little more? Well, I guess that I could deal with that... but I will only call it a night, if I get to walk you to your room. I want to make sure your safe.. from any danger lurking beyond the corners..." He said giving him reason to walk her to her staying place. "Well, what's perfect? Do you really want to know?" He asked her as he teased her with his lips, letting his flesh touch hers, and then pulling away. "That... your lips..."

He leaned his head into her hand that was on his cheek again, and tried to catch any scent off of it to remember the moment with. He laughed suddenly hearing that her mask was still on. All this time, he felt as though it was her second skin, loving the way it looked on her. All he needed was to see her eye's and her face would come to him in visions. He watched her take the mask off, and grined at how her face looked underneath. It completed the thought of what he thought she looked like under neath and it was better than he remembered. "Much...Well, I control the earth as you know... making it bend to my will... able to use it to better my circumstances, but.." He said as he leaned in closer to her yet again, letting his lips meet hers just barely. "I only use it when the situation calls for it!" He finally let his lips meet hers with full force again, starting slowly, but ended just a second later. "Anything about you that you want me to know?" He asked letting his voice become deeper for the situation at hand.

[•Mouse•]

" Mmm. An Escort would be nice." The girl said as she listened to him continue to speak of himself. She nodded as she listened and when he kissed her, saying her lips where what was perfect she blushed a soft shade of pink. Feeling another kiss she went to kiss back but found he had pulled away. Now he was just teasing her, seeing her reaction.

" Anything about myself? Hmm, You know my powers. I can animate my hair and any personal belongs touching me. Minus other people. I use them all the time. My real hair style is unknown to me because my hair seems to have a mind of it own." Valerie explained. She sat up a bit to get closer to him without him having to lean over to get to her. " I like being like this with you." She said slowly. " I'm starting to think this was a good idea, agreeing to accompany you for the night." Slowly she got closer. Her voice was soft, once more much more a whisper than actually speaking.

" And I want to kiss you again." She added very softly as her eyes slide closed and her lips pressed to his. The hand on his faced pulled it closer, wanting more as it trailed down his chest and clung to the side of his shirt loosely. Her tongue brushed across his lips, begging for entrance, begging to be allowed to explore. She was giving herself away now. The fact she wanted to touch him and kiss him.

[Marr-ee]

"An escort you got then little lady." He added his voice yet again, remembering that he was still in his cowboy getup. His hat he just remembered was still at the dance, which he wish he had at the moment to add to his charm for the moment. The rustic cowboy look was perfect for this night, yet the vest was constricting for most of the movement.
"Yes, I know your powers of course..." He answered her statement and felt her lean up to get closer to him, and welcomed it. "You do? Well, then that makes two of us!" He told her and nodded with agreement on that last part of her sentence. He couldn't have said it better himself. Her voice echoed into his head, allowing the words to stick to him. The flesh from her lips met with his and a chill ran down his back as her hand trailed down his chest, and held on to his button up shirt. What was she planning? It gave him goosebumbs as her tongue teased his lips, without another thought he allowed it. His lips opened and he began to move his head very slowly to get the feeling started. The world around him now disappeared from him thoughts and only she was there in a void of empty space.

[•Mouse•]

The fact he got the hint made her even more happier. Sliding her tongue into his mouth she explored ever centimeter as only she could dream. The feeling she was getting was of pure happiness which gripped her tightly and refused to let go.The other hand found his neck and wrapped around it, pulling him closer and closer. Right now, she really didn't care if he had disagreed and didn't want to kiss her at first. Allowing her access was all the permission had needed to know he wanted this too. To know he could have said no and he still would have accepted the sign of affection.

The goal of her hand that was settled on his side seemed to be remove the vest. Though it looked amazing on him, that hand had gone to working at undoing the buttons. Her finger would stop in mid process as she would press her self into him to enhance the kiss more. Now, at first glance one would think of Valerie as a conservative girl that wouldn't dream of doing these things. But, she wasn't completely like that. He'd have to wait for anything more than a very passionate make-out session. And of course, Valerie knew he wouldn't pressure. He was a gentlemen. Kind, gentle, caring. She liked that about him, liked how he was considerate and thoughtful while still being romantic.

[Marr-ee]

Anthony felt her explore the inside of his mouth, the feeling made him tingle from his head to his toes, sendign shocks throughout his body. THis feeling of sensuality would only exsist from passion. Passion that burned like fire. He could feel that she was pulling him closer and he could feel that he didn't want to let go or her to stop. It was the most invigorating thing he'd ever experienced. Such a gentleman as he, was now acting as though it wasn't noticible of him. He fought back with his tongue, now beginning to wrestle with hers for space, however, his hand that was used to caress her cheek now was at his shirt feeling her trying to take it off, but every few seconds, he would feel her press herself against him. Such a FEELING. He took his vest off imbetween trying to hold her up with his good arm and then laid the vest beside him.
He replaced his hand on her side, feeling the fabric around her waist. His fingers moved along the seam of the dress.

[•Mouse•]

That's right. A little more. Her mind was egging her own. It told her to continue the kiss that seemed to burn with desire and passion. When her hand landed on the shirt he wore beneath the vest, she smiled into the kiss. At was obvious, by the way he kissed back, by the way he played with the dress that he was fine with this as well. It was intense, feeling as she did now. It was something that she had forgotten from sometime ago. But, how she now saw what she was missing.

The hand on his chest undid a few of the buttons on his shirt so she could touch the flesh beneath. And when she finally reached her goal she was very pleased, the hand slinking in to the shirt and around to his back. Her nails dug in just a little but, as she pressed him closer. Whatever it was that had taken some form of control of Valerie brought her to realize that she missed feeling anothers body pressed against hers. The feeling of lips pressed together as they were now.

Amazing.[/i]Was the only word that seemed to echo throughout her thoughts each time she explored his back with that chilly hand. The butterflys were gone, but her heartbeat was intense. It was probably double or triple it's regular speed. It almost shocked her that her chest wasn't in pain from how hard it was bounding.

[Marr-ee]

Anthony moved his hands like a snake, feeling the seam on the dress that somehow seemed to end when his hand reached for her back. It was almost bare, just a few strings tangled in his fingers as he let his finger trace her back. He let his hand lay flat on her back, taking in the flesh that was there. It was so perfect and her skin seemed to have a chill upon it. Maybe it was time to go in? Let her warm up? He needed to cool off after all this. Maybe a dip in the lake would be perfect right about now?
With a quick sound from his mouth, he felt her fingers on his bare back, and the nails seemed to stick to his back, making him immobile to her. Power... that's what it was.. nails on his back meant power. Something he was going to give her. He moved out his chest, giving him power to press upon hers, showing want, but then stopped after doing that. His heart seemed to disappear from the intense pounding and he found himself to move his lips away from hers. He smiled at her. "Well, my dear... it is getting late. May I escort you to your room?" He asked, hopefull, he wouldn't be caught trying to makeout with her at her doorstep, but he was a gentleman, and what he'd done was well beyond his limit. He didn't regret it though. He ENJOYED it. He let her form lay down completely on his lap as he looked to the sky again. "Wonderful dance

[•Mouse•]

She licked her lips when he pulled away and smiled, eyes still closed. Her hand slowly slipped from his shirt and landed across her stomach, a smile on her face as she slowly opened her lavender eyes. They looked him over so slowly, a smile on her lips. She looked at peace with herself. Like she felt everything was how it should be. She liked laying here, slightly breathless from their little indevour. Eyes slowly looked to the sky and her smile seemed more calming than before. Like the sight of the stars, the sky having cleared a bit, was a miracale.

She hadn't wanted the kiss to end, she wanted him to continue to feel her back soothingly. To continue with the moment and get swept away with it. Wh owas she fooling, she had already been dragged away by the wonderful sensation being with him had been giving her. And it was still there. The feeling of being needed, of being wanted. That was something she would miss as she slept tonight. The feeling of there lips pressed together and their bodys fitting together like puzzle pieces. She would dream about this moment. Dream about the kiss and the gentle touch.

" I guess you should. It's getting cold. Roxanna will be asleep, if she has a nightmare she won't be able to go back unless I sing the lullaby." She spoke the truth. She was upset about having to part ways with Anthony.She didn't want to, not in the least. But it was true. Valerie knew that Roxanna would have a bad dream. It was something that happened, something Val had gotten used to. Valerie would thank Anthony properly upon reaching her dorm. A kiss good night for the man who walked her all the way there, when he really didn't have to.

" Roxanna wil have that dream. She always does, every night. About the day our parents left us alone. And everynight, I wake to her weeping and feel the small body crawl into bed beside Me. I will hug her close, and sing that song that mother had taught us. The gentle lullaby of about a place where the world was wonderful no matter what." She sounded distant at first, but kept such a calm smile on her face as she spoke of the past. And the soon to be future. She knew Anthony had wanted to know a bit about her. So here was that bit. She sang, but only for Roxanna. The lullaby, the Sister's secret. Only Belle had heard it.
