Re: 11/1 - an hour before dawn

[hellorhighwater]

The request that came with the offer of her hand stopped Neil's heart pleasantly for just a second. For one brief moment, the cool metal link of the bracelet felt heavier on his wrist--a pleasant weight, a reminder that warmed his soul as readily as it sent a tiny frission of pleasure up his spine.

A reminder that he belonged to her...and so did his heart.

So his smile was soft, filled with tenderness, even as deep brown eyes went nearly black with passion as he reached out to lay his hand in hers...then slid his fingers up to curl around her arm, all but laying his wrist over her open palm.

Once again, she couldn't resist the pull of softness in his eyes, especially coupled with so evident passion, and cupped her hand to his jaw in appreciation. But her gaze strayed quickly to his wrist laid out across her hand with the same, perfect willingness that he offered his body to her control. Her fingers trembled as they read the surface of the bracelet and his skin beside and beneath.

She wouldn't be so blunt as to say the Mine that she was thinking, but when she bent her head to lay a kiss where metal touched skin, it was only marginally more subtle. Both voice and eyes sparked with wry self-awareness as she pushed away from him, at last rising to her feet. "Don't let me chafe your wrist with running my fingers over that."

"I promise absolutely nothin'." he snickered, making no move to get up so he could just sit for a moment and watch her get out of bed, gaze roving unashamedly over her nude body with that same mixture of love and lust in his expression, with that weight of her gift on his wrist. He liked the way it felt, liked that hungry, possessive flash in her eyes beneath the glint of something very close to humor.

He gave himself about five seconds just to lounge, to stare, then shifted to her side of the bed and swung his legs to the floor. Reaching out, he caught her bare hip and pulled her close, just wrapping his arms around her and pressing his face against her sternum for a moment to breathe her in--warm skin, subtle hints of sweat and sex, that little something else that was light and elegant and Regina.

"Mmmmmm...think if I prayed really hard, the Goddess would keep her Sky Maker busy an extra hour or two so we could fuck again?" he mumbled rhetorically against her skin before releasing her and rising to his feet with a grin. Regarding his new gift for a moment, he considered it, then waved a hand over it with a couple of muttered words in the dragon tongue. Fire flashed in his pupils, as it always did when he cast one of his spells, and the bracelet glowed like coals for a moment before the light faded.

Perfect--now water couldn't do it harm. With a little extra magic, he could guarantee he'd never have to take it off if he didn't feel like it.

"C'mon, we'll save time if we clean up together." he murmured, leaning in to kiss her forehead.

"Trust me, we'll fuck again," Regina replied, smile and smirk equally evident in her voice. But she did pull away to avoid the temptation to see how close they could cut it.

"Unless you want water for purification purposes, I could just--" She gestured with a hand to suggest the sort of prestidigitation that let her clean them up and dress them. Two separate spells, but both easily accomplished.

"I don't mind the shower obviously, but if you're worried about time..." Obviously they'd teleport, but she didn't know how much time he needed before dawn.

As it always happened, the consideration she gave for his faith, the respect she had for what he believed and what he wanted to do made his chest so tight with emotion, it felt like his heart was still in there, and couldn't fit alongside the enormity of his love for her. Sometimes it was sweet, sometimes it hurt--and every single time, it made him smile as he tried to breathe around the simplicity of the miracle that was Regina Mills.

It also made him think, when all he wanted to do was follow his dick when it came to Regina...so he did, sucking on his teeth for a moment as he absently rubbed his chin.

"Spells are okay." he decided. There was no need for ritual purification--the whole thing was about letting the Sky Maker do the purifying. If anything, magic would get his attention, remind him of the Sun Goddess and further invoke his fury.

"Go for it. Ideally, the box should go in the ground just as the sky's getting color in it." he decided, letting his eyes rake over her with open hunger as he smiled. "And the faster we bury the box, the faster we can get back in bed. Or in the shower. Or anywhere else with a lock on the door--basically, anywhere and any time I can get you bare-ass naked and make you forget your own name, but you already knew that."

For the sake of the ritual, Regina glanced away, purposefully not noticing the burning lust in his eyes. She knew, but she forced herself to focus on the spells to clean them up.

The first was somewhat more finicky, for all that it was a simple magical effect. On occasion, when she used it on other people, it tried to remove body hair, or jewelry, so she cast it on herself first, and then reduced the area of effect and cast it several times to clean him up.

Wardrobing was simpler. She needed only think of some outfit he'd worn and recall it to him. Since they wouldn't be dressed long if she had anything to say about it, she went for simple and warm for both of them. And if her jeans happened to hug her hips a little more than was strictly necessary and her boot heels were high enough to scream sex, who could blame her?

"All right, love. Grab the box and tell me where we need to be."

Re: 11/1 - an hour before dawn

Neil definitely noticed the jeans and the heels--and the fact that the long sleeve henley she'd put him in was probably a size too small, showing off his shoulders and arms to good effect. She got a smile for her efforts...and, because he couldn't fucking resist, dragged her in for one more kiss, making it quick before he released her and summoned the box to him with a flash of fire.

"Just outside the courtyard." he declared, nodding his head towards the door. "There's a bare stretch near the drive that's perfect--not too dry to dig a little. It's gotta go into the earth itself, not just in the dirt."

The caress of warm, velvety lips sent a curl of warmth through her, like steam rising off a mug of hot cocoa. Comforting, on the one hand, but all together decadent, on the other.

She passed a hand along his arm then over his abdomen as he released her, and as soon as the magics of his summoning faded, she tucked a hand in the back pocket of his jeans. What? She needed to be touching him to teleport them both!

Which she did, whisking them off to the spot he'd mentioned in a whirl of slinky purple smoke. And seeing the ground when they materialized, she quickly summoned a digging trowel from her garden shed and offered it to him. "Unless you want me to do it?"
