"Key word is usually. I'm not really tired for some reason," he said, tilting his head curiously. "And no one told me this supposedly false information—I observed it with my own eyes." He smirked at her blush, lightly nudging her with an elbow. "I'm the only one allowed to deny compliments."
She smacked him lightly when he nudged her and rolled her eyes again, “Well, you’re not allowed to deny compliments any more, I'm the only one that can do that now.” His smirk made her blush grow more, she didn’t have an explanation though besides it -and he- were very attractive.
He pouted and rubbed where she had smacked him, then arched his pierced brow. "Nuh uh, not gonna happen. How 'bout this," he added when he caught sight of her deepening blush, "We're both banned from denying compliments."
“That might work,” She replied, trying to hide her flushed cheeks by rolling over and stuffing her face in a pillow as she attempted to get her blush to fade. Rolling onto her side and facing him, she settled on just covering one of her cheeks with her hand as the other stayed pressed against the pillow.
He shifted so he was on his side as well, snaking an arm around her waist and tugging her flush against him. He nuzzled his face into her neck with a smile. "You're too cute," he mumbled, knowing she was trying to hide her blush.
She wrinkled her nose but smiled, “Shut up, Prince.” The blush came back even brighter than before and she sighed in defeat, moving her hand away from her face and instead letting it run through his hair. “If I’m cute, you’re handsome.”
He kissed her neck with a smile, keeping his arm around her waist, and closed his eyes, loving the feeling of her fingers in his hair. "Of course I am," he said with a jokingly smug tone, "How else can I snag a girlfriend as amazing as you?"
Jynna laughed and pressed a kiss to the top of his head, “You’re such an idiot, you know that?” She ran her fingers through his hair again before starting to just fiddle with strands and draw designs in his hair with her finger.
He sighed softly and leaned against her, wrapping his other arm around her. "Am not," he muttered, the argument weak. He was content to just stay here like this, breathing in her unique scent with her right next to him and in his arms.
“Yeah, you are, but you’re a cute idiot.” She replied, a content smile crossing her face as she let her eyes flick close. Her hands still ran through his hair and the only thing better she could’ve asked for was for a blanket to magically toss over her without having to move from against him.
He lightly nipped at her neck in retaliation for being called cute, but a smile was taking over his face despite his small act of denial. Because of his tendency to sleep on the spot, he was used to not sleeping with a blanket, and Jynna's warmth was all he needed at the moment.
She kissed his head again in response and couldn’t help but smile, looping her leg between his and tugging herself closer to him. Just being here with him was nice and she hummed softly, though she still was nowhere near tired yet.
"You're amazing," he murmured against her skin, not tired either. "And I actually mean it when I say that. I feel like I'm the most comfortable when I'm with you and having you this close to me is the best feeling ever. You keep up with me every step of the way. You're funny and have the best smiles." He burrowed further into her neck. "You smell amazing too," he added jokingly. "But most importantly, you see me for who I am instead of judging me for what most people see."
She was a little shocked by what he said but she liked it, blushing again, “Rhydar, I..geez…how do you get me so flustered so easily you dork?” Jynna smiled like a goofball and kissed his head again, resting hers against his. “What do I smell like?” She asked jokingly, though she was slightly curious. She snuggled tighter to him and just thought about what he had said.
He curled his arms a little more around her waist, smiling slightly at her reaction to his small confession. It was made easier by the fact that he wasn't looking directly at her face, as he was hiding in the crook of her neck. He thought about her second question for a few seconds, then said, "Sorta like vanilla, but not exactly. It's unique and hard to describe."
She hummed and nodded, brushing a hand down his neck before moving it back to tangle into his hair. “Vanilla, interesting, though that is one of my favorite smells ever. I love getting vanilla smelling anything,” She said, letting her mind drift to the other parts of what he said as she went quiet to enjoy just being there with him.
He smiled to himself and idly brushed this thumb over her waist in invisible circles. "All that vanilla must've rubbed off on you," he joked, then fell silent as he savored this quiet moment. Jynna was so cozy, and he wasn't exaggerating when he said that being with her made him feel the most comfortable, and perhaps the most at ease.
Leaning into his touch, she completely relaxed in his arms, enjoying the circles being traced on her waist. She kissed the top of his head again and murmured something about never wanting to move from where she was now next to him, she had never felt this content next to anyone.
He moved his head so that he was now facing her, eye to eye, and smiled softly at her. He pulled her close while simultaneously pressing his lips against hers. The kiss was soft and gentle, and he let her decide if it was going to stay like that.
She smiled ever so softly and kissed him back just as gently for a moment, trying to say how amazing he was through it. Softly, she broke the kiss for a second, just enough time to press a kiss to the bridge of his nose and run her hand through his hair again before pressing her lips back to his, a tad harder than before but not much.
Rhydar smiled softly and let her do her thing, briefly closing his eyes when she ran her fingers through her hair. When she kissed him again, he returned it without hesitation, adding the same amount of pressure as she was. He loved kissing Jynna. She tasted so sweet and her lips were so soft. Helped that it was Jynna he was kissing—a.k.a the best woman Rhydar has ever met and had the privilege of being with.
Her lips twitched up in a small smile and she couldn’t have been more happy as she kissed him. Being with him was one of the best things that had happened to her in a long time and he was amazing. She moved one of her hands to his cheek and let the other stay in his hair, letting him decide when or if the kiss would end or if it would get even just slightly more intense.
Rhydar let the semi-gentle kiss linger for a few moments before breaking it, catching his breath for a second, then kissed Jynna again. This time it was more passionate and more intense than before, but he was still willing to back down if she thought he was going too far.
She caught her breath as well and studied his face for a moment. He was stunning to her, with his piercings making her eyes travel around his face and his lip ring finally catching her attention as she kissed him back with just as much passion as he did.
He smiled ever so slightly when she returned the kiss with equal passion. He definitely wasn't tired enough to go to bed just yet. Having Jynna so close to him, in his arms, kissing him…he loved every moment of it. Jynna was something else, and he was forever grateful for that fateful meeting.
