[ when dan heng whines her name like that it's like an electric shock down her spine, but she worries for a moment that she's gone a little too far, that she's pushed too fast by touching her, but then dan heng is turning her onto her back, straddling her hips and looking down at her -

she looks like a goddess, flush-faced and needy, her dark hair wreathing her beautiful face. ren stares, slack-jawed for a moment, desirous and in awe.

but then dan heng speaks, and she exhales softly around a smile. ]

.. you have no idea how long I've wanted to hear that.

[ ren's hands smooth over the tops of dan heng's bare thighs, before one rises to cup her cheek, looking into her beautiful teal eyes that shine brightly even in the afternoon light. ]

I'm so crazy about you..

Sorry it took me so long.

[ She won't explain. It's obvious enough, probably, what it was that's been holding her back all this time—what has been, it seems, holding both of them back despite both wanting the same thing. She smiles, the expression soft and shy, and leans down over Ren, brushing her lips against the other woman's in a brief kiss. ]

Should we turn the movie off? The truth is, I'm kind of crazy about you too. I'd rather not find myself distracted by one of those silly action scenes when I should be focusing on you...

[ Her cheeks warm again even as she says it. She's not good at this, but... she also wants to make sure that Ren knows she means it, really means it. After seeing her nervousness earlier, her worry her feelings wouldn't be returned... ]

Heh. You got it.

[ ren's hand scrambles across the bedding, finding the remote control where they'd left it, and quickly shutting off the television, plunging the room into silence punctuated only by their heavy breathing. ]

I'm all yours, now.

[ no distractions. nothing else. just the two of them, and the breaking of this tension that's been hanging on too long. ]

[ With the room in silence again, Dan Heng unwinds her leg from Ren and moves to lie next to her again, reaching out to run fingers down the side of the other's face. ]

You look beautiful, Ren.

[ It's a sweet whisper, one that Dan Heng follows by reaching to remove her glasses, putting them aside before she moves to rest her head against the other woman's, forehead to forehead once more. ]

I'm sorry I made you wait. I just... I was afraid to hope you might mean it.

[ dan heng settles down beside her again, and ren misses the warm weight of her, and the excellent view, but this is excellent, too - just having dan heng close, warm and soft and pliant and perfect..

grinning, ren runs her thumb along dan heng's lower lip. ]

Hey, you don't have to be sorry. I know how I come off.

[ she chuckles, wriggling in closer, tangling their legs together. ]

Still, I thought I was pretty obvious.

[ Dan Heng just smiles, shakes her head as Ren's thumb runs along her lower lip, as the older girl tangles their legs together. In hindsight, maybe Ren was obvious, but... ]

Now that I look at it, maybe. But I...

[ She shakes her head. ]

I'm more of a coward than you. I was too scared to risk it. You're so beautiful and popular, I couldn't imagine how you'd...

[ And Dan Heng trails off, wrinkling her nose in embarrassment and frustration. How does she explain it? ]

How I'd.. want you? Instead of someone else?

[ ren shakes her head, unable to hold back a soft laugh. ]

You're not a coward, Danbao, you're an idiot.

[ she says helpfully, grinning, then leans in to kiss her again, one hand smoothing down her back while the other slides into her hair, her knee pushing between dan heng's warm thighs. she hums, low and soft and appreciative, nipping at dan heng's lower lip, whispering against it. ]

You're smart, brave, loyal, gorgeous.. what more could I ever want?

[ Her lips part, a protest on her tongue when Ren calls her an idiot, but any form of complaint is ended by the press of the other's mouth to hers again, Dan Heng answering the kiss with a sigh, legs parting a little to give Ren the access she seeks with the press of her knee. A shudder of pleasure runs down her spine as the other woman whispers into her mouth, nipping at her lower lip, her own hands moving to rest at Ren's sides. ]

Mmn. You can say that, but you, Ren... you're so perfect. Haven't you seen the way everyone looks at you?

[ How would someone like Ren look at her, when she had some of the most amazing people on campus eyeing her, chasing after her? ]

Every time I saw you with someone, it was someone else as perfect as you are. I didn't think I could even start to measure up.

Edited 2025-06-17 10:00 (UTC)

Pfft. I have big tits and a nice ass. That's why people look at me the way that they do.

[ and anyone can look good if they try - the right clothes, the right makeup - but it's all physical. dan heng has that and more. ]

And hey, don't talk about my girlfriend that way.

[ she teases, smiling as she rubs their noses together, kissing the corner of dan heng's mouth, then along her jawline, slow and soft, savoring each kiss. ]

She measures up, and then some.

[ Dan Heng looks up at Ren in quiet shock when the other scolds her, teases her. The blush still ever-present on her cheeks since their first kiss, darkens, and she closes her eyes against those kisses, tilting her head back with a soft, embarrassed whine on her lips. ]

Girlfriend...?

[ Her fingers reach, stroke down over Ren's cheek, eyes searching the other's face. ]

That was kinda sudden of you, huh...

[ But it's a smile on her lips, curling the corners despite herself even as she tries to hide it. ]

Well, I mean, you said that you were mine, and that you'd go out with me..

[ ren hums, lifting her head to meet dan heng's eyes, much as she wants to keep kissing her, her mouth, her jaw, her throat - she looks into her face instead. ]

.. unless you're saying you meant that in a besties, girls being girls sort of way, hmm?

[ you know, besties who kiss and shower together. ]

[ Ren repeats words that Dan Heng barely remembers saying. Her cheeks catch fresh heat, and she looks up at the other, biting her lower lip as she slowly starts to put two and two together, to realize what she agreed to in the midst of...

Shyly, she laughs, and turns to press her head into Ren's shoulder. ]

I... I'm not unhappy about it. Somehow I just didn't quite... realize we agreed to that. I was... I was caught up in the whole thing. In... in you, I guess. So I didn't... ah.

[ Aeons, this is embarrassing. ]

[ oh. ren's heart drops, a little. it's time to be clear, apparently.

she pulls back, then gently cups dan heng's cheek, turning her face toward her. ]

.. hey. We don't have to - I mean.. if you don't want to..

[ ren shakes her head, her brow drawn together. maybe she jumped the gun, pulled for too much too fast. ]

I'm not going to push you into anything, okay?

[ She blinks as she watches the look on Ren's face change, recognizes the concern and the worry starting to settle on her features—this time, it's Dan Heng's heart that sinks in her chest. ]

Wait, no—

[ The last thing she wants is for the other to think she's doubting this, that she's hesitant. She might be awful at this whole thing, but she's not doubting anything, as much as it might sound like she is, so... ]

You're not pushing me. I want this.

[ The fingers of both hands reach up, cupping Ren's cheeks in answer. ]

I'm sorry. I haven't... I've never really... done anything like this before. Been... involved with anyone. So I'm... I guess I'm out of practice.

[ relief spreads across ren's features just as quickly as the worry had set in. ]

.. okay. Heh.

[ her smile blooms warm across her face when dan heng's hands cup her cheeks, her fiery eyes soft around the edges. she hums, low and easy, and turns her head to press kisses into dan heng's palm. ]

I'll make it clear, then. I want you to be my girlfriend.

[ she says softly, nudging their noses together with warm affection. ]

Exclusively. No one else. No more flirting. Just you and me.

[ Ren reacts with relief, with sweetness, and Dan Heng finds herself smiling at the relief on the other's face, a soft sigh on her lips as kisses are pressed into her palm, as their noses are nudged together. ]

Okay.

[ It's a simple answer, whispered in response as her fingers curl around Ren's. ]

I'll be your girlfriend, Ren.

[ Exclusively. No one else. Just the two of them. ]

Okay. Okay.

[ she says, then grins and surges forward, pushing dan heng down onto her back and rolling on top of her with a laugh, before seeking her mouth in another kiss. a warm, wanting, forward kiss, with her arms tightly around dan heng's slim body, hugging her close. ]

Oh.. and -

[ she pauses, pulls back to look down at dan heng, her face flushed warm, hair wild around her shoulders. ]

.. that goes for everything physical, too. Anything beyond kissing, hugging - that's all yours to tell me your comfort level, okay? If I'm your first.. I want everything to be in your hands.

[ She finds herself laughing, a natural response to the bright warmth in Ren's voice as she surges forward and rolls onto her. Her arms circle the other woman's shoulders, holding her close as she responds to the kiss with a warm press of her own mouth, sighing against her lips.

It's enough that there's a slight jut of her lower lip when Ren pulls back, although the words that follow explain, make Dan Heng tilt her head with a tender understanding, fingers lifting to brush that wild hair back as she smiles, fond. ]

Yeah, [ she says. ] You're my first. And... when it comes to that, you will be my first, too. But... I trust you, Ren. If something's too much, I promise I'll tell you. Is that okay?

[ ah, that cute little pout. ren could kiss it right off of her mouth. ]

Yeah. That's okay.

[ whatever's easiest for dan heng. whatever makes her comfortable. if she would rather ren take the lead for now and speak up when it goes too far, then that's fine, that's what they'll do.

so she dips down again to pick up where she left off, kissing dan heng fully and completely, humming quietly as she parts her lips to deepen the kiss, confident now as she coaxes dan heng's lips apart to taste her again. ]

[ She's feeling more confident now. In herself, in knowing that Ren knows what she wants...

Dan Heng's lips part under Ren's, a sigh on her mouth as she wraps her arms more tightly around her, as she curls her fingers through the other's beautiful, wild hair. There's still the salty taste of popcorn on her lips, but more than that there's something sweet, something Dan Heng doesn't think she'll be able to get enough of chasing after. ]

You're... mn.

[ A soft sigh of pleasure as Dan Heng relaxes, sinks into the mattress. ]

[ and just like that, the mood shifts from light and playful to something a little deeper, more warm and thick and sensual. they kiss slowly, but deeply, exploring one another's mouths unhurriedly, learning their shapes, their textures, their flavors. dan heng tastes just as ren had thought she would, gentle and sweet, but crisp, like fresh rain, and she can't get enough of it. ]

I'm.. what? Mmm..?

[ she hums between kisses, smiling, kissing her again, again. ren's hands move, smoothing down dan heng's sides, over her hips, up again, thumbing beneath the hem of her shirt as their bodies settle comfortably together, hips aligning.

she won't push too much. she shouldn't. dan heng is a virgin, and gods, ren has wanted her for so long now, but she doesn't want to spook her, doesn't want to expect too much too fast. but some touching.. that should be all right. if it isn't, dan heng will tell her so. breaking the kiss, ren drags her mouth along dan heng's jaw, kissing a line down the side of her tender throat while her hands slip beneath her shirt. not high. just feeling her sides. her warm skin. ]

[ Dan Heng sighs in content, in pleasure in response to the way Ren deepens their kiss, the way things slowly change from playful and sweet to something more. Their explorations may be unhurried, but they're enough to take her breath away, leaving her gusting short, breathy sighs against the other's mouth as their hips come together.

She's... something. Dan Heng knew she had something to say... but she forgets, and she's not sure it matters in the wake of this anyway. She's not sure anything matters compared to the feelings of those hands sliding over her sides, slipping under her shirt so Ren's fingers can touch bare skin—

(A shudder of pleasure, Dan Heng's head tipping back slightly, allowing the other all the more space to kiss along her jaw, her throat.)

And yes, she'll tell her if it's too much, but how can anything be too much? Dan Heng wants everything, wants to experience everything Yingxing wants to give her— ]

[ the room is quiet save for the soft sounds of their kissing, and the whisper of fabric as they move. ren soaks it up, enjoys the sounds, enjoys the scent of dan heng's clean, soft skin, and the wonderful warmth of her body. dan heng is pliant beneath her, so incredibly soft, and it's taking everything ren has in order to hold back, to not tug off every scrap of dan heng's clothing and kiss every inch of her, like she's wanted to for months now. all year.

but this is still good. dan heng isn't pushing her away or telling her to stop, she's only holding on more tightly, making soft, sweet little sounds that make ren's insides clench up with desire, her hips pressing gently downward, grinding slow and easy along dan heng's.

ren's breath catches, warmth blooming between her thighs, her mouth pressing to dan heng's pulse.

slowly, carefully, her hands slide higher, palms smoothing over dan heng's ribs, rucking up the fabric of her shirt around her wrists until she pauses just below her breasts, ren's thumbs gliding just beneath them, skirting, teasing, testing the waters. ]

[ When Ren's hips press down against hers, a slow grind of body to body, the sound Dan Heng makes is a little too sharp as her body answers with heat. Between the touches and the sensation of the other's mouth, she's already so lost in her, and that slow movement just makes it all the better still, leaving her to writhe and sigh and arch under the ministrations.

She's wanted this for so long that she's let herself think about it some nights alone, but it's so much better with Ren's actual hands and Ren's actual mouth and not just her imagination working in desperate overtime. Ren is learned where Dan Heng is not, but also unpredictable in that she's led by her own desires, so...

Dan Heng's breath catches when Ren's palms skate over her ribs, teasing and testing, and after a few short gasps for breath, she nods, even though Ren can't see. ]

You can. Please.

[ She wants to touch her too, explore her too, but... right now she's feeling a little overwhelmed, a little swept up in so many sensations that she doesn't think she could quantify even if she tried... ]

[ please, dan heng asks so sweetly, and ren's body flashes with heat.

immediately, her hands slide higher, long fingers and hot palms sliding over the soft swells of dan heng's breasts, feeling their shape, learning her, appreciating her. ren's thumbs roll over the pert peaks of her nipples, and she groans against dan heng's skin, her hips hitching, thighs squeezing around one of dan heng's, arousal spiking in her belly.

it does not matter that she's seen dan heng nude only hours earlier - touching her is entirely different, entirely new. ren's mind spins, her mouth moving back up, dragging along dan heng's jaw to her mouth so she can kiss her again, deep and hot and wanting. this time there is no gentle, furtive exploring - ren's kiss is all heat, fierce and needy, as she rolls her body downward again, their hips grinding more firmly together.

gods, she's already so wet that it's almost embarrassing, would be were this anyone but dan heng. ]
