033: Happiness is...

Happiness is...

- having people who care about you
- not feeling like a damaged freak all the time
- working in a place that you love
- having a beautiful place to live
- feeling safe
- pretending to be in a fairy tale
- dancing
- kisses

He didn't understand what was happening at first. Then he felt it. The warmth, the happiness, the safety, and the... Instantly his eyes went wide. Strange but good. She didn't recognize it but he did.

Through all of it, he could only think of one word to whisper. "Light..."

"Can you feel it?" she whispered, still holding herself as open to him as she could manage, wanting to give back at least a little to him.

"Good," she said with a smile and kept the connection open, willing to do so as long as he wanted.

"I'd almost forgotten..."

He smiled. "That last one. Strange but good. I know it. I've felt it before."

"Have you?" she asked curiously. "I... I like it. But it makes me... want... something."

He laughed. "That's what it's supposed to do."

Rain looked confused. "But what? I don't understand?"

"But nothing. It's supposed to make you feel good and want more kisses and...more."

She looked up at him wide-eyed. "More...?"

This was going downhill really fast. "More...beyond that."

"I... there is more beyond kissing?" She still hadn't made any sort of connection between the wonderful feeling and the kissing and the sex that she thought so little of. "Would you... show me?"

Her question came just as he was popping another grape in his mouth. Instantly, he started spluttering and coughing.

She looked utterly startled and went up on her knees to try and help him. "Mat! Are you alright?"

Re: Action*

He waved his hand as he took a deep breath. "I'm fine. Just choked."

"Okay," she said, still watching him carefully. She'd let the connection between them close in her concern and distraction.

Another deep breath then he looked over at her. "I'm alright now."

Re: Action*

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-11-03 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
She nodded, still looking concerned. "Did I upset you?"

Re: Action*

[identity profile] bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com 2008-11-03 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
"No, no. Just surprised me." He smiled.

"Was it a wrong thing to ask?" She was looking away, a bit afraid to meet his eyes.

Re: Action*

[identity profile] bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com 2008-11-03 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
"No. It wasn't wrong." He ran his fingers through his hair. "I'm not used to being asked that though. But it wasn't wrong."

"Probably most people know a lot more than me," she said pensively. "I always end up feeling lost. It's okay if you don't want to."

"It's just..." There was a sigh then he tilted her head back up to face him. "Nevermind that actually. Are you sure you want me to show you?"

Re: Action*

[identity profile] livingmyths.livejournal.com 2008-11-03 08:30 pm (UTC)(link)
She hesitated, then nodded. "Yes. I trust you. And I haven't ever felt this way around anyone else."

Re: Action*

He took a deep breath then moved closer to her so he could wrap his arms around her. "Alright. But if you ever want me to stop. Just tell me."
