Library [Sunday, October 28]

Lee settled himself behind the desk with a notebook, a few books that he wasn't going to read and a bottle of water. He started writing a letter to his brother, stopped a few times to just wander around the library, eventually wandering back and attempting to finish the letter.

"That's probably why I'm better," Adah teased back, simply with a sharpened grin, lightly brushing against his cheek with her thumb.

"I never took the time to look," he agreed, letting his eyes slip closed, "until I wasn't there anymore."

"Exactly my point," Adah said, slowly drawing her eyes open as if feeling some sort of shift in the balance as the Eel closed his, and she smiled softly as she carefully observed his expression as she continued making soft circles against his cheek. Not exactly quite as exciting as being able to displace the feeling by mere though, but just as nice, if not more. And, even better, she wouldn't have to worry so much about him seeing it coming as her thumb paused and she leaned carefully forward across the desk to give him the lightest brushing of a kiss.

So much for guilt; must have been yesterday's lunch after all.

He didn't see it coming so when he felt her close, felt the brush of her lips, it took him a moment to respond. And then he was responding, leaning a little more against the desk, keeping the pressure light, soft, leaning into her hand a little more.

Adah wasn't likely to play with unexpected pressure like the Eel did; she couldn't afford to, really, depending on consistency to keep her collected, but she hoped that perhaps the feeling of her grinning into the kiss in response to his returning it would at least count for something before, another circle again his cheek with her thumb, little finger lightly tracing a small spot of his strong jawline, Adah drew lightly away. "So," she said, softly, thinking idly that, by now, no one had probably ever heard her talk as much as he had, and no one probably ever will, "stars? When?" It would be nice meet under terms that didn't involve the library or climbing the stairs to his room, so she wanted to confirm its occurrence.

Again, it took him a moment to respond, because he was still lingering on that kiss, her grin and finally let his eyes slowly slide open.

"Sometime this week?" Lee asked. "Not Wednesday. Tuesday? Thursday?"

"I like Thursday," Adah responded, drawing into her shoulder a little, happily. Thursday would give her just enough time to really feel the anticipation of waiting for it ~~and her mun doesn't even have to work~~.

"Thursday, okay," he said, nodding. "Thursday. Any particular place? Park? Preserve? Beach?"

"Beach," Adah decided with a small nod, one she made without drawing her eyes from his, and she kept her thumb moving with her words, "Can feel the sand in between your toes if it isn't too cold, and the water will reflect the stars." She paused, to sharpen her smile. "More to count."

"More to count," he said, smile widening and eyes bright. "The beach then on Thursday. I'm already looking forward to it."

"Well," Adah said, drawing her hand away finally, drawing back and marveling at how just a few inches away seemed to create a much larger gap; she didn't even need to lean so heavily on the desk. Perhaps that was it. "I'll maybe let you concentrate on looking forward to it and I'll go find those books I came here for?"

"Okay," he said, still grinning and still leaning and still watching. "I'll be up here if you need anything."
