@storieswrote​ | a kiss on the corner of the mouth. (sunho) spots to kiss
---
She’s unfamiliar in her weight on his chest, not quite the way he knows her weight on his heart - an odd thing to say, considering the location of those two things overlap.
He’s imagined things like these, not naive enough to negate such thoughts, not holy enough to pretend that people are devoid of them entirely. But it’s different, with her breath ghosting and twirling in the air there where it can so easily mix with his, with her fingers pushed into the fabric of his shirt and somehow deeper and beyond, as if claws trying to rip into his chest and take what has been long promised to them - his heart, beating ever so stubbornly.
The reality is... well, as expected, better. Because nothing can beat the actual sensation, of her lips, soft as he’s not quite had to taste them yet, as they brush against his skin, past his own, as if wanting to tease, or perhaps only daring a step of this size, rather than the larger one they will be taking any minute now.
It’s also better because his mind can never hope to satisfy the image of her, the sound of her voice, or the very essence of her presence near him, when she stands in his personal space, when she does so on purpose, when there is no room for either of them to find an excuse to justify the proximity.
But the reality of the image can bring its flaws, mostly one, actually, one downside that he can’t stomach, that makes him act: if this is real, if this is what she wants, how can he be expected to not ask for more? How can he stand there, now, and not exhale through his nose, as his gaze drills into hers, as his hand finds her jaw.
He doesn’t want to hold her, he doesn’t want to keep her, he doesn’t want to stop her, he doesn’t want to do anything that she might not want, or cross a line etched beyond the one they had already crossed. But he wants to... he wants to...
He wants to gently watch his thumb caress her skin, he wants to lean back to get enough space to watch her properly, and he wants to stare at her lips, so she may see this for what it is: an opening, to push him away, or allow him in.
“Not like that... Please.”
