STARRING
BABY

her hips grind up into him and it's electric, even more so than the first time they kissed; it lights him up from the inside, bright flashes of pleasure bursting beneath his skin. he can't help but groan into her mouth, hot and wet, teeth dragging over her lip. fuck, he really does need this, needs her; he's not sure how much longer he can hold out, even as much as he enjoys the equally needy sounds dripping from her mouth. if he had even a drop of modesty in him, he might consider it obscene. )
Fuck, ( he manages, breathless, distracted by her hips and her hands and her mouth, the warmth of her words against his lips. and then comes the please, and who is dean to deny her? (he never could; not now or ever.) the equal measure of want between them is palpable, the air hot with their desire; it's laughable, almost, just how fucking bad they want it, how much dean feels like a damn teenager all over again, the thrill of a private rendezvous coursing through his veins β only this time there's no one to catch them, no one to walk in and tell him to get the fuck out. there's just them and this and it's theirs. this moment, it's all theirs; it's the start of something they're forging together, one kiss, one touch at a time. ) Yeah, I got you, baby.
( he shifts above her, his free hand sliding between them to take hold of his cock, lining himself up to her still sensitive entrance, where his fingers were only moments ago. god, she's still so wet, it barely takes any effort at all to slide right into her, unearthing a deep groan from the back of his throat at the feel of her tight around him. his hand trails back over her hip, brushing under her to settle at the small of her back, keeping her slotted close to him. their noses touch as he gives an experimental roll of his hips, slow and deep, his hand squeezing hers. ) God, Bev, you feel so good.
no subject
The head of his cock slipping over her slick entrance is enough to make her shudder, exhaling sharply against his neck as her eyes drift closed, hand tightening on his ass. Her hips twitch, clit still hypersensitive, her whispers of yeah and that's it indistinct against his dewy skin, dissolving into a low moan as he slides into her β slowly, almost agonisingly so, her eyes rolling back at the tight stretch around him, savouring the fullness as his hips press flush into the cradle of hers. Oh, oh, oh, fuck. Her breath comes in shallow pants now as she tries to keep herself still, to adjust, to remember, to keep herself from coming undone too quickly, too soon.
But God, it's never felt this good. Amazing what wanting and being wanted can do, how sharp it makes their shared pleasure, how much it makes her burn for him and everything he's giving her. The sweep of his hand brings her back to him first, and the squeeze to hers anchors her, eyes drifting open to meet his even as their foreheads rest against each other. There is something exquisitely intimate about this, something that makes her heart beat harder, and it's only the slow grind of his hips that forces her to break that eye contact with a soft gasp, lashes fluttering.
She loves how her name sounds on his lips just as much as baby does. ]
You're incredible. [ Soft, airy, chin tipping just enough to kiss him again, sucking on his lower lip as she draws away. Her ankles hook around his thighs, hand drifting up his back now to curl at the nape of his neck as if to say Stay, right here, pressed close in every way; her hips roll up to his with a soft moan, aching for him to β ] Fuck me, sweetheart, [ whispered against the shell of his ear now, ] nice and slow, come on.
no subject
but there's something even more exquisite about her now: breathless and shuddering under him, unable to keep still, airy little moans trickling out of her like water from a tap, unafraid to want. and he can't help but think of another life, an old life he only ever pretended to live β but one where he had someone, and together they had something, they felt something for each other, and it was almost real. almost, because eventually dean's real life caught up to him. (it's different with bev. different in a way that should scare him. and maybe it does, a little, because it feels a lot like a leap of faith.)
you're incredible draws him back to her, his mouth curving softly under hers. when was the last time anyone told him that and meant it? when was the last time he believed it?
then her mouth is at his ear β fuck me, sweetheart β and her whisper ripples through him in the wake of a wordless grunt, coils hot and tight in his abdomen. if he had less control, maybe just those three words alone would have made him come undone. they certainly drive him forward, rolling his hips into hers, nice and slow, just like she said to. he's not sure he's capable of anything more than slow right now, anyway; this is the only way he can keep hold of the thin grasp he has on the edge he's been working up to all night. he leans in on the next thrust, his mouth wet against her throat, teeth scraping lightly over the column of her neck as he grazes his way toward her ear, pressing a messy kiss just below the lobe. )
C'mon, say my name, baby. ( a whisper of his own, almost a plea. ) I wanna hear you say it while I fuck you. ( he pulls out just far enough to let her feel his girth again as he slides back into her, letting loose a low moan, his mouth finding hers once more, the sound of his pleasure a low hum against her lips. ) Tell me how good it feels being so full.
no subject
She could never look, before. Always turned her face away, shut her eyes, rode it out. But all Beverly wants to do now is look, memorise angle and curve and flicker of his brows, the exact shade of his eyes in the light β can't bear the thought of missing a second, of not relishing each moment that they have this. Even as he dips his head to mouth kisses over her neck and her eyes slide shut, the afterimage remains; her head arches a little, just enough to bare her throat to his wandering lips, her voice breaking on a soft ah at the scrape of teeth, his breath hot at her ear. God, huskiness to his voice, the way it curls around his earnest request, how he punctuates it with a delicious roll of his hips. She's far gone enough that even if the words don't register, the tone does, and she's already moaning his name into the kiss as she chases him for another, and another. ]
Dean β [ More air than sound, her hand finally sliding free of his grip only so it can join the other in cupping his face, bringing them forehead to forehead, nose to nose. She kisses him again, drawing away only for his name to break on a moan, hitching on nothing until the rest can follow. ] You feel so good, never thought it could feel this good. [ She arches with each thrust of his hips, her breath coming in ragged gasps, brow furrowed and eyes shut to savour the sharp pleasure when the angle hits just so, tightening around him with a delicate whimper of approval. ] Oh, God β Dean, Dean, just like that β
[ Fuck, it feels incredible. Can't think, can barely catch her breath, her fingers curling and uncurling in his hair as they fall into their rhythm, rocking together, her hips rolling to meet his thrusts when she's aching for him to fuck her a little faster β yeah, yeah, keep going β and her legs wrap around him to get him deeper still, her eyes drifting open to meet his again, gaze hazy with desire but locked on his, hands cradling his face and unable to look away until the snap of his hips makes her, lashes flutttering. ]
Fuck, [ on a whimper, ] so β so good, [ You are, she means, but she's already fraying and the words are lost. Moaned against his lips now, between kisses: ] Close, baby.
no subject
his name on her lips is its own form of affection, filling him up until he feels like he might burst from it all, the adoration poured into one little syllable, the reverence laced into every enunciation. it's almost overwhelming, his heart hammering hard against his chest with every sound she makes, even when she tells him exactly what he wants to hear. and then her hands are on his face and his fingers grasp at the linen beneath them when she squeezes, his name following a whimper that has him groaning into her mouth β )
God, yeah β you're so tight, baby, I β ( it's almost too much, her hands in his hair, her legs wrapped around him, the perfect, slick heat of her when he's this deep. it's intoxicating β she's intoxicating β and still he wants to drink all of her up: the pinch of her brow, the flutter of her lashes, the shade of her cheeks in the lamplight when she whimpers such a pretty little thing under him. so good, she says, just for him, and the last shred of control he had slips through his fingers, reduced to his own desperate, needy moans as he chases her mouth, each thrust pushing him closer, closer, closer. )
Fuck, Bev, I'm β ( only the warning doesn't come, lost in white hot pleasure crashing into him, dragging a deep groan from the base of his abdomen, his eyes squeezing shut (so close they almost brush her temple). he barely has enough presence of mind to keep his hips moving, riding out his orgasm with every rock of his hips, more insistent now, desperate to chase the high of that feeling, how fucking good it feels with every wave of it, how much better it is being inside her, tight around him, squeezing him until it feels like he can't breathe. his gasps and broken moans come in ragged succession, his forehead damp with sweat as it presses against hers, his breath feverish on her lips when he kisses her, sloppy from the intensity of being pulled fully undone. his chest swells with unspoken sentiments, feelings he doesn't have words for. how could he possibly verbalize this moment, the awe of being with her?
the hand at her back slides between them again, his fingers rubbing impatient circles into her clit one last time, his hips rocking in tandem. this is the record-breaker, the one both of them will feel (nerves lit up like fireworks), the one dean takes the most pride in. this close, he thinks it might be too much, but he can't help being greedy. he's not sure he's ever wanted anything more than he wants her, this, everything they do to each other. ) That's it, baby, almost there. ( a smile pulls at his mouth, soft and fond; he could watch her come undone like this forever and still find something new to worship every time. ) Look so fucking gorgeous like this, Bev.
no subject
Their kisses are hurried, careless now as they hurtle towards the edge together, peppered with moans of encouragement, whimpered names, ragged pleas for that barely even make it into the charged air between them. Beverly's fingers curl into the sides of his hair, holding him right there, foreheads pressed tight together and skin burning and thrumming where they meet, dewy with exertion as nice and slow goes out the window for more, faster, good, yes. This close she can feel the way his muscles go taut, the rhythm of his thrusts picking up, chasing the release he's resisted all night, and one hand releases his hair so she can cup his flushed cheek, whisper in a hot rush against his open mouth as her name dissolves into a ragged groan. ]
Perfect. [ She kisses him as he rides through it, never lingering for long because God, the sounds falling from his parted lips, the thrill the proof of his pleasure sends through her and straight between her thighs, squeezing him tight like she can take him deeper this way, draw out his orgasm as long as she can. The pad of her thumb sweeps over his bottom lip as she draws back to look at him, drink in the twist in his expression, fuck, he's so β ] Perfect, Dean, that's it, that's right, honey.
[ She's so caught up in this, in him, dragged into the undertow of the kiss that follows that she doesn't even notice the slide of his hand until his fingers find her clit again β she bucks up into him with a startled moan, the sound tapering off into a soft, high whine when the pleasure starts to skirt the edge of too much, a sharpness to it she can't even breathe through; she writhes beneath him, pinned by his hips, her own jerking like she's trying to grind up into him or draw away when the tension builds to the point of snapping, her heels digging into the bed now. ]
B-baby, [ riding on a gasp, back arching. She forces her eyes open (when did they fall closed?) to look at him again, noses brushing and hair clinging with sweat at her brow, her neck, as they move together. Gorgeous, he says, and she repeats it in a whisper, because he is too, not just her, two halves of a whole. And then β and then β ] Yeah, yeah, Dea... Deaβ
[ Can't even say his name, can't catch her breath enough to do it, because suddenly she's coming with a broken cry, almost a sob or a prayer or both, arching up into him and curling around him β squeezing β as her orgasm slams into her. She holds his gaze as long as she can, lashes at half-mast when the first wave hits, wanting him to see what he does to her; his fingers don't stop, his hips don't stop, and her eyes roll back as her climax hits its peak, her head thrown back as she shatters apart, her moans racheting higher and higher until she's suspended into silence.
She doesn't know how long she drifts there, doesn't know when she sags bonelessly into the mattress in the comedown; all she knows is how overwhelmed and lightheaded she feels, aftershocks still lighting up her nerves and making her shiver and tremble under him, breath stuttering. No words; not yet. But somehow, blindly, she still tips up to him in search of his lips. Can't sustain it long, not when she's trying to catch her breath, but she can't find her voice to say his name, either: so she says it with a kiss. ]
no subject
when she reaches her peak, not too far after his own β desperate, writhing under him with wild abandon, his name broken and beautiful on her lips (like a prayer, like please, i need you) β it shoots through him like wildfire, winding up his spine as she arches into him, her hips jerking into him, the tight squeeze of her shooting through him with an extra sharpness after his own release β but he doesn't stop, rides the waves of it with her, buried in her all the way to the hilt, too much but just enough, sloppy kisses traded when he manages to catch her mouth between the hitched sounds of her pleasure. )
That's it, baby, that's it. ( he echoes her words back to her, his gaze focused on her, the way she throws her head back, the shape of her mouth when there's nothing left but sound, then no sound at all. god, she's stunning, and he did this to her. his rhythm slowing as the final waves of her orgasms begin to taper off, both of them coming down from a high he hasn't felt in a long time (that she hasn't felt maybe ever, which twists a whole different emotion in his gut, a shade of pride reserved purely for firsts). ) I got you.
( a stretch of time passes in shuddered breaths, limbs loosening from being stretched taut, two bodies pressed together, desperately holding onto one another. he fears that if he moves too soon it might break this spell cast over them, over this moment that hardly feels real now that it's settling back around them, reality crashing down onto his shoulders. distantly, he's aware that he's still got a job to do in the morning, but the haze of sex and bev's lips against his sweep the thought away. he'll do the job when it's time to do the job β right now his only concern is the woman in his arms, the taste of her lips, the warmth of her he has little interest in removing himself from.
they lie there entangled for what feels like an age, but eventually he shifts to ease out of her slowly, gently rolling onto his side to face her, taking a hand to brush the damp hair from her forehead. he's still catching his breath (harder to when she consistently takes it away) but he smiles at her nonetheless, leaning in to press a soft and lingering kiss to her lips, his forehead pressed against hers when he pulls away, breathing her in, eyes shut to listen better to the soft rise and fall of her chest. he kisses her again, lighter this time, as if trying to convince himself to finally draw back. not that he particularly wants to get out of bed, but he doesn't exactly want to lie here with his release hanging warm between his thighs either. )
Hey, ( he says in a low whisper, still rough around the edges but thoroughly contented. his nose brushes hers, his lips almost meeting hers. a promise he intends to keep when he comes back. ) Gonna clean up. You okay? Need anything?
no subject
It's overwhelming, the flood of emotions and sensations that rushes in to fill the void left by her climax. Her breath hitches like she's close to tears, but the rawness of it all is softened by endorphins and the sweetness of his kiss. And kissing him, well, that's easy, the easiest thing she's ever done; it's only been a few short hours but already it's a reflex woven into her DNA, the way she turns to him like a flower to the sun, chasing his lips for another and another, each one soft and lingering. She doesn't have the presence of mind to do or say much else, still blissed out with static and the desire to be near him the only thing left with crystal clarity β but she can do this: kiss him until he world comes slowly back into focus.
And it does in increments, tingling across her body like pins-and-needles coming back to life. She's first aware of the brush of his fingers across her face (even if it came before the kisses β and maybe her sense of time is still a little hazy, beyond curses and magic), the tenderness of the gesture making her heart twist in some funny way. She thinks she can feel him looking at her, smiling at her, and her eyes finally drift open to see it for herself and β oh. Oh, there he is, so close she could reach up and caress his face if she thought her arm would cooperate with the impulse. God, he's beautiful. The thought strikes her without warning and melts away just as suddenly. She can't articulate it, so she smiles instead, a lazy, beatific thing. ]
Hi, [ she whispers back to his hey, voice airy and distracted. She blinks slowly at him, the question landing gently but still taking a beat to process it, and after a delay, she shakes her head once. It's not really an answer that holds any weight; she should get cleaned up too, maybe drink some water, something, but that all seems like too much effort. She just wants to lie here with him.
Eventually, her hand does lift to touch him, whatever part she can reach β his hand, arm, cheek β like she can anchor him to her for a few more moments. He might resist kissing her one more time but she won't, closing the scant distance between them with a simple tip of her head. Finally, necessity (and the cooling sweat on her skin) wins out and she draws away to mumble, ] Through the closet. [ Does that make sense? She tries again on a breathy laugh: ] Bathroom.
[ Jesus, what he does to her. She feels like jello. ]
no subject
Don't miss me too much, babe.
( his hold on her hand lingers as long as his reach will allow while he slides off the bed, careful not to let the condom slip. he gives her a wink over his shoulder once he's standing, ass bare, before he heads through her closet to the bathroom. the luxurious shower doesn't escape his notice β if he's honest, it's the first thing he notices (mind already wandering ahead to morning: imagining lazy kisses under the hot spray of water; hands roaming over soft, wet skin; the knead of her fingers shampooing his hair). but he doesn't want to keep her waiting too long, so he makes quick work of disposing of the condom and washing his hands, cataloging what he can as he casts brief glances around her bathroom: a bathtub on one wall (definitely big enough for two), crisp white towels (and a few in a soft green) neatly folded and arranged on a shelf, the sprawling sink where he stands. certainly miles more lavish than most of the motel bathrooms he's had to use over the course of his life (nicer even than the bunker, perhaps, but the bunker wasn't built for style).
before he heads back, he grabs a small washcloth and runs it under hot water until it's soaked. he wrings it out just enough so it won't drip on her rugs (which are alone probably worth more than everything he has to his name; he can safely say she's the richest person he's ever slept with, not that any of that really means anything to him). as he wanders back through her closet, he pulls open one of her drawers on the drive-by, absently picking out a pair of her underwear. )
Bev. ( he says softly to get her attention once he returns, offering her the washcloth. ) Here. ( in his other hand he holds the pair of her underwear. belatedly, he lets out a short laugh at the implication of how that might look. ) Wasn't just an excuse to go rooting through your unmentionables, promise. Just thought you might like something fresh. ( his mouth curves upward as he crawls back into bed with her, setting her underwear on the sliver of mattress left between them for her to take or leave. he shifts in a little closer, his hand brushing over the curve of her bare hip. )
Shame there wasn't anything in my size. ( in a whisper with his mouth upturned, which sounds like a joke on the surface and definitely lands like one, his eyes crinkling around the edges β but there's something almost disappointed about it (like he might have seriously considered grabbing a pair for himself if he knew they would fit), a hint of a guilty pleasure swimming just beneath the veneer of sarcasm. )
no subject
She's thinking the same as she watches him walk down the short corridor towards her bathroom (gaze drifting over his broad shoulders and frankly great ass): how the fuck is she supposed to say goodbye to him tomorrow? (Even with her half-dozen date ideas waiting for them when the job is done.) How is she supposed to kiss him on the threshold of her apartment, on the sidewalk outside her building, and watch the Impala drive out of the city? It wouldn't be the first time and their friendship has survived the distance before; hell, the foundations are as strong as they are because of the distance. But β don't miss me too much. Easier said than done. She already does.
But that's for tomorrow and for a few days from now. Tonight she's content, settled under the covers and basking in the afterglow, turning her head just enough to admire Dean from afar, silhouetted by the warmth of the bathroom light. So much about this has been new and this is no different β she's used to being the one dragging herself out of bed for the clean up, every step as inelegant as the act that came before. A chore, (just like everything else about her marriage), a tool to placate an angry man. It feels indulgent to stay right where she is for once, savouring every gentle moment of her comedown without a twinge of guilt or shame; neither has a place here and never has, not with him. She's never felt more relaxed β or safe. But that's Dean. He's been safe since the moment they met, eyes locked in her foyer with Tom's shadow looming over her shoulder. (I got you penetrating the fear.) It's knowing that when she comes to, it'll be with him at her side. (I got you piercing through the passion.)
Her eyes drift open again at the sound of her name, the mattress dipping under his weight as he rejoins her. A washcloth and a pair of underwear, the offer buoyed by his laughter and echoed by her own. (I got you thrumming under both.) It's so goddamn thoughtful, she thinks her heart might burst from such a simple kindness. Beverly breathes in, feels steadier for it β stomach fluttering when their fingers brush during the hand off β then smiles back at the quip he tacks on at the end. ]
Yet. [ Whether it's a joke or not, the offer is sincere if he wants it to be. (Safe. That's what they are.) ] Can make whatever you like. [ A beat, like she's willing herself to move again; her arm lifts and she lays the hot washcloth against the slope of her neck, groaning softly at how good that feels against her buzzing skin. ] Later β oh my god, that's so nice. [ Softly, with feeling, ] Thank you.
[ She lifts the comforter and wipes herself down anywhere his mouth lingered for long, north to south, soothing the points where he might have left marks behind, folding and flipping the washcloth over just as it dips between her thighs. It's a nice recap, honestly, shivering a little at the memory β or maybe that's how sensitive she still feels down there. (Yeah, no, she's not getting up any time soon.) Beverly pushes herself up on her elbow with some effort and squints across the room for aim before flinging the washcloth into the hamper. ]
Ha, [ she laughs when she makes the shot, elbow slipping a half-second later and sending her sprawling back on the bed with an audible oof; she's still laughing, still riding that high, looking back at Dean like, Did you see that? ] Gave myself fifty-fifty on making that, y'know, [ she says as she wriggles into her underwear. ] Still kinda feel like jello.
[ It's a compliment. She lets it hang between them, warm and effervescent with teasing, and then Beverly rolls onto her side to be closer to him, expression softening the moment her hand reconnects with his waist. God, she could get caught up in gazing at him for hours. They've known each other for a while now, but it feels like she's seeing him for the first time; he seems softer, somehow, worry eased from his brow and replaced by the crinkles at the corners of his eyes brought on by what can only be fondness.
She doesn't even realise she's reflecting it back at him, her voice sweet and soft as she murmurs, ] You good, honey?
no subject
he's quiet for a stretch as he watches her lay the washcloth against her neck, his stomach flipping itself inside out when thank you leaves her lips. crazy what two little words can do to him, what they mean to someone who rarely ever hears them. ) Sure thing. ( he's never been very good at saying you're welcome without it sounding condescending, but the sentiment remains the same.
while she works the washcloth over her skin, he quietly hums to himself the main guitar riff from bad company's can't get enough, his gaze following her hand even when it passes beneath the comforter, smiling softly at the memory of her, the way she tasted, the way she felt. if he thought he could move without feeling the ache in his arms, he'd slide his hand between her thighs with hers, but it's already been a long, whirlwind of a night and he thinks they both deserve this break to just bask in the glow of each other. he thought she was glowing before, when she'd told him about the divorce being finalized, but now? she's practically a supernova, radiating her affection so brightly next to him he can't help but be captivated even by the mundane act of washing herself.
he follows the cast of her arm as she throws the washcloth across the room, grinning brightly when it thwumps into the hamper. he's laughing with her when she falls back, the arch of his brow reflecting the pride in his voice. ) The crowd goes wild! That's three points to Marsh, the league's first ever jello player.
( but even as he jokes about it, it's clear by the color of his cheeks that he heard her compliment, understood what she meant by it, appreciates it more than he can express right now. his face softens, the weight of the world held by someone else's shoulders for the moment. why should he be doomed to be atlas when all he's ever done is sacrifice for the sake of the world? bev's touch centers him, grounds him, and when he looks at her this time, she is the world, worthy of his devotion and his sacrifice. )
Yeah, I'm good. ( he laughs softly, almost disbelieving. he's had a lot of good sex in his life β and a lot of pretty mediocre sex β but there's something distinctly great about being with someone fully, heart, soul, and body. he feels like that with bev, like they've been irrevocably tied together and he wouldn't have it any other way. it's just β well, he may use the word awesome more than any normal person in their thirties, but this particular moment feels worthy of truly inspiring awe. maybe he's still reeling a little, too, wondering if any of that was really real. he reaches up to brush a hand through her messy curls, feel the warmth of her drying neck. that's real, alright. she's real. this is real. they're real, aren't they? thing thing they've just begun, it's real. ) You're incredible. That was β dare I say β awesome.
( just in case there was any doubt. )
no subject
He's right β there's something great about being with someone fully. It's such an intoxicating feeling, Bev still feels lightheaded with it, helpless to do much else but smile when he answers her, gratified by it. Her eyes fall closed for a heartbeat when he touches her, the gesture so delicate it's like he's handling a soap bubble β like he's not sure she's really in front of him, like she might disappear. His fingers rest on her neck and it doesn't even occur to her to flinch, the glowing affection for him washing out old reflexes formed by fear. (Safe, safe, safe. She never wants him to stop touching her. She'd feel a little unmoored without this anchor point; but even without, he's still her harbour.)
You're incredible lands differently now that they aren't lost in each others' passionate embrace. It's as honest now as it was then, but something about it being offered so simply instead of gasped between their hungry kisses makes her blush deeper now; her eyes blink open again to look at him in the lamplight, pleased and flattered and delighted. (Maybe a little self-conscious. There's a flicker of old anxiety, wondering if she'd done enough for him, but then he says awesome and that worry goes quiet.) But her laugh is as warm as ever, bubbling free without shame. ]
Thank you? [ God, look at him. He's just lying there, looking at her like she's holding the universe together, and she thinks her heart might burst. She almost can't take it. Almost. (She almost can't get enough.) She grins, bright and playful. ] You're pretty awesome yourself, Winchester. Actually, I think the word is β mindblowing.
[ It's teasingly said, but she means it. How can she find the words to convey what this meant? What he means? She doesn't want to ruin the moment by burdening it with too much expectation, but there's no denying there's something there, something that goes beyond tonight. She knows he can feel it too. And she knows the best and only way forward is one step at a time β together. God, she wants nothing more than to explore this together.
Beverly studies him for a moment, curled up on her side and legs tangled with his under the covers. They're close, but not close enough. ]
C'mere, [ she murmurs, voice still buoyant with immeasurable fondness, as she leans up to kiss him. Words are hard, but she can do justice to half of them with this; it's chaste, but no less tender because of it, the press of their lips soft and lingering. When she breaks away, she doesn't go far, her nose brushing his as she whispers against him, ] You should stay.
[ Here. The night. With me. It's almost a question, almost a request. And it's entirely up to him. ]
