Well, I'm not going to complain if you stay a little longer.
[ But no, he's not triyng to make her do anything. First of all, he would not be able to, and secondly, he doesn't want to. He just wants her to feel alright again, and not push herself any harder than her body can handle right now. ]
I know you do. And I know you'd purposefully try to push yourself past them.
[ She's stubborn and far too similar to him, in that regard. ]
( she avoids his gaze when he says that, confirming that he's right with the gesture. rowena does know her limits but with magic and impatience she does push past them. if she knows something can be done or needs to be that's more important.
after a moment she sighs, turning her head to look at him again )
I'd at least like to shower, and then we can see what this day has. Whether it is reading or perhaps a short walk.
( and she wouldn't even complain too much at how short it was )
[ He can't actually stop her, to be fair. She's a grown woman, and he respects her right to choose what she wishes to do. He can still try to reason with her, and he knows she's at least willing to listen to him. ]
I think we can manage that much.
[ By that he means the walk, not that he'll help her with the shower. Unless she wants the help. He's not going to say no. ]
( she pushes herself up slowly, careful to do so as painlessly as possible. once she's leaned against her pillow, she reaches out to him, running her fingers across his cheek )
You could join me.
( it's not that she needs him there, she can manage a shower alone, but wanting him there, and the softer intimacy of sharing a shower with him )
[ He tips his head at the touch, glancing up towards her, his hand idly stroking her side. ]
Mm, I could. [ Just to clarify: ] I'd like that very much.
[ Just so she doesn't think he'd only do it to help her. The thought of sharing a shower with her actually sounds incredibly appealing, especially after last night. ]
her hand slips to under his chin, a gentle nudge to beckon him closer so she can kiss him easier as she leans towards him. it's soft and light, and brief as she draws away, lowering her hand so she can move towards the edge of the bed )
[ They are both naked, actually. How incredibly convenient.
He shifts as she slides out of bed, rolling over and watching her with a small smile. When she beckons him to follow, he sits up, slipping out from beneath the covers and catching up to her, a hand resting on her waist as he leans down for a quick kiss to her cheek.
The water will already be running as they go into the bathroom, though he lets it heat a little before coaxing her to get inside. ]
( she takes the opportunity to kiss him again as the water heats, hands resting on his shoulders until he coaxes her in the shower. she wishes she had something to tie her hair back with, not prepared to deal with shower-fresh hair, but she has nothing. she'll have to deal with it later.
there's a relieved sigh as she steps under the hot spray, letting it run over her back, turning slightly to ease her shoulders under it, making a full turn )
[ If only she'd asked, he would have easily fashioned a pin from the nearest piece of metal, but since she doesn't, he figures getting her hair wet isn't really an issue.
He slides his hands up her sides and back, his thumbs pressing gently between her shoulder blades, kneading the flesh. He leans down to kiss her neck while he works the knots in her muscles, a low hum breathed close to her ear. ]
I agree, and... the company makes it all the better.
( she hums softly in agreement, leaning into his touch. his hands work over her muscles with skill, and it's the best massage that rowena's had (from a partner) in a long time. she winces slightly when he hits a sore spot, leaning her head back against his chest )
I haven't shared a shower with someone in a while.
( she might have some very casual sex and have had partners in recent years, but no one she's wanted to share a shower with, or even fuck in the shower )
[ Well, he wouldn't say he's especially knowledgeable when it comes to body massages, but he's gentle enough and he knows what feels good. That's all he's aiming for here.
He keeps kissing her all the while, idly pressing his lips to her neck and jaw, slowly nuzzling behing her ear. His hands work their way down to her lower back, fingers curled around her waist. ]
Do feel free to let me know whenever you'd like the company again.
[ Meaning that he is enjoying himself quite a bit right now too, and he's very much willing to repeat the experience whenever she likes. ]
( or he did. and given their new relationship, rowena has no doubts that there will be a next time.
she lays her hands over his, coaxing one across her body to fit it over her breast, tilting her head to kiss his jaw. stood here with him was the most relaxed that rowena had felt since arriving in this realm )
[ For now he's happy to tend to her, helping her relax under the spray, hoping that it will make her soreness a little better. It should make their walk easier later on too.
Not that he's thinking of the walk so much anymore when she guides his hand up to her breast. He lets out a low hum, squeezing gently as his thumb brushes over her nipple, and he tilts his head just enough to capture his lips in a slow but heated kiss. ]
( rowena hums into the kiss as his thumb rubs over her nipple, reaching a hand up to rest against his neck. her thoughts become equally distracted as his do, the water of the shower crashing around as rowena sinks into his embrace. even for as small a touch as his hand is giving, it's such a nice one.
she murmurs his name against his lips when their kiss breaks, before kissing him again, still just as slow. though rowena's resting into him, she's light in his arms, letting him support her weight as they stand there. she shifts slightly, brushing her against him, letting her body fit more comfortably against his. and, when she rubs against him again, letting her tease him slightly )
[ Both the massage and the cleaning up are mostly forgotten, as Erik is now far more focused on kissing and touching Rowena, further encouraged by the sounds she makes, and those little movements as she presses back against him. His breath hitches gently, and his other hand slides across her stomach, dipping between her legs to tease her inner thighs, squeezing the flesh there and in the process tugging her back and pressing her flush against his groin. ]
( rowena doesn't need much encouragement, parting her legs to let his hand fit easier between them, gasping lightly when he tugs her flush against him. she tilts her head, tucking it more under his chin, turned to rest her cheek against him )
You might need to hold me up.
( after how well he's already treated her, and that lingering weakness, she's not certain her legs would hold her up fully if this keeps going. not that she wants it to stop )
[ Her voice rings in the shower, and he hums in response, the hand on her breast easing so he can wrap it around her waist instead. ]
I'm holding you.
[ He's not going to let her slip or fall in the shower. Maybe the better idea would be not to do this while she's still not fully recovered, but they're past that point now, and she feels and sounds too good for him to want to stop.
His hand slips further between her legs, now that he has a better hold on her. Two fingers push past her folds and stroke her warm flesh, a slow, steady pace for now, building up her pleasure rather than rushing anything. ]
( slick flesh greets his fingers, her head nuzzling against him as his fingers press into her, a higher-pitched sound releasing from her. she feels safe against him, comfortably held, and she lowers her hand from his neck to place over her breast, replacing his touch. her fingers lightly tease her nipple, stroking in time to the pace erik sets inside her )
Next time, I want you inside me against that wall.
( though her words whisper it's almost like magic that makes them so clear, even against the noise of the shower around them. she turns her head to kiss his neck briefly, a little more open-mouthed as his fingers press at her )
[ That comment gets a low groan from Erik, his fingers pressing a little harder against her, pushing inside her further at a slow but intense pace. ]
I'm having a hard enough time resisting the urge right now.
[ Her saying it out loud doesn't help, but he keeps touching her like this, working her up with long, thorough strokes of his fingers against her slick flesh, even as he feels his own cock throb in need for attention yet again. He can stand to ignore it until he gets her off. ]
( she wishes it, and she clenches lightly around his fingers, breathing a little heavier. but he'd done all the work in his bed, and even if he held her against the wall it wouldn't be comfortable, which rowena knows. but it doesn't stop her holding the image in her mind as his fingers work deeper in her, insistent in their presses.
she shifts against him, a poor attempt at rocking against his hand, though her movements still brush her over his cock, pressing against her ass. it has her turning slightly, her shoulder resting against his chest as rowena leans against him, letting her hand slip around his cock. it's a lighter touch, and as his fingers work her she strokes one finger along the underside of him )
[ She's certainly not helping his self-control here, luckily Erik possesses plenty of restraint. Even if the thought alone makes him groan a bit, his fingers curling and pressing harder inside her when he feels the clench of her muscles around his touch.
Then she starts moving, first rubbing herself against his erection, then turning just enough to reach down and touch him. He moans softly in response, his arm around her tightening just so, pulling her closer and encouraging that touch while he keeps working his fingers into her at a steady, eager pace. ]
( soft moans filter out in the shower, his name clear on her lips. it's almost a beg, even though rowena's not close enough yet, but his fingers working in her feel so good, driving her on.
her hand holds him firmer in response to his sounds, two fingers stroking more insistently along him, almost in pace with the curl of his fingers in her )
[ Erik is not a man so easy to distract, but Rowena's making a rather good job of it right now. Even feeling the way she was moving against him, her quickened breaths as he keeps touching her, but now that she's returning that touch, it's even a greater challenge still to stay focused.
He lets out a low moan of his own, hips shifting forward, blood rushing down and making the muscles throb as he hardens even more. His fingers curl and press harder into her, pace a little more increased, palm of his hand flattened against her so he can rub against her clit with each thrust of his fingers inside her. ]
( rowena closes her eyes so that he can't see the draw of magic to them, and she knows that she's still weak, that she shouldn't be using any magic, but it's instinct. and she loves hearing how her partner is affected by it.
her magic washes through his cock from her touch, her hand feeling warmer around him, and as rowena strokes her fingers along him, sliding her hand lower to brush them over his tip, each motion of her hand will feel more intense, her touch amplified by her magic.
a smaller piece of her magic flows into her, and as his fingers press harder into her she tightens around him, moaning deeper. she sucks a breath in as his hand brushes over her clit, each swipe making it much harder to focus on him.
her legs feel weaker as she gets closer, and the hand at her breast falls to grasp at his arm for security. rowena shifts against him, close, and her fingers stroke less evenly over his cock. when rowena comes it's with his name on her tongue, her head pressing firmer against him )
[ Were he more in possession of his mental capacities right now, he would tell her that it's a bad idea for her to exert herself more than necessary, and this is definitely not necessary. She'll make him feel good even if all she does is touch him, with no aid of her magic, but when he feels that heat rising, the pleasure increased when every brush and stroke of her hand on him feels that much more intense.
It also serves to encourage a more eager pace, fingers thrusting quick inside her, palm pressed harder when her voice rises in volume, and her body tenses and arches against him. It's clear that she's getting close, and while his own pleasure is building rapidly, he pours every last thread of focus he has onto getting her over the edge, moaning when she lets out his name, panting for breath, arm squeezed tight around her while his fingers stroke her over the peak of her orgasm. ]
