The Apartment Above Luke's, Sunday Night

[spin_kick_snap]

So, Anders had graduated and he and Dante were leaving for a two-week trip tomorrow. Kathy felt that was enough of a reason to splurge on a fancy dinner-date, so after putting in a ridiculous order for tapas downstairs (with enough to feed Raven, too, of course), she set about making her room into a romantic little evening hideaway. Her desk with a cloth over it made for a lovely table for two, candles scattered about gave the whole area a nice kind of ambiance, and while a pitcher of sangria wasn't the most romantic drink in the world, it was fruity and delicious and that was really what mattered. She turned her ipod on low and, confident that everything was ready, sent Anders a text:

Hey graduate. Shift almost up? Dinner's ready whenever you are. <3

[For the one named and SP!]

"Sounds fantastic," Andrs said, and kissed the tip of her ear. "And a lot more relaxing than driving across the country a second time."

[spin_kick_snap]

She smiled at the kiss, then turned to claim one of her own. "Maybe after this first session is over?" she suggested. "We can go to one of those all-inclusive resorts in, like, Mexico or something. Do a couple of day trips to swim with dolphins or poke at ruins and spend the rest of the time on the beach?"

She kissed him again. "Or in our hotel room?"

[not_every_mage]

"Yes to all of those things," Anders said, and returned her kiss with a firmer one. "Though one of them sounds extra-good right now."

[spin_kick_snap]

"Oh?" Kathy asked, nails gliding gently down the insides of his arms. "Have you discovered a newfound love of archaeology?"

Kathy, no one needed your weird humor right now.

[not_every_mage]

"You figured it out," Anders said easily as he set his plate aside. "Old buildings and history turn me on."

[spin_kick_snap]

"I'm very historical," Kathy said, batting her eyelashes at him. "Have you ever noticed how historical I am?"

She deliberately stretched, arching her chest out towards him. "Wanna see my flying buttresses?"

[not_every_mage]

Anders cracked up, laughing into his hands.

"Yes," he said, when he recovered. "And I've heard you have quite a solid foundation I'd like to inspect, too."

[spin_kick_snap]

This was one of the things she loved best about being with Anders: the ability to just be silly and ridiculous and her. It was why they'd been friends for so long first and why she'd so easily slipped into loving him later.

"You can inspect me anytime," she told him, waggling her eyebrows. "...I can't come up with another architecture pun right now, dammit."

So she settled ('settled') for kissing him again.

[not_every_mage]

"I wouldn't want to start taking your ability to pun for granite, anyhow," Anders said, which was more a building material pun than an architecture one, but did it matter when they were kissing before she could have pointed that out?

[spin_kick_snap]

If anything, that pun was getting him kissed harder. Kathy was hardly going to nitpick just because a good pun (or a bad one) was only mostly thematically appropriate.

She brushed his hair back from his face, taking a moment to commit every feature to memory, before leaning back in to kiss him again. "Still hungry?" she murmured.

[not_every_mage]

"Not for food," Anders returned, after the kiss broke several moments later. "Bedroom?"

[spin_kick_snap]

"Yes," Kathy groaned, standing up and reaching for his hand. "I need that three weeks worth of orgasms you promised me." When he stood, she tugged him close, pressing her body against his. *You feel good against me."

[not_every_mage]

"Bet it'd feel even better if we were wearing fewer clothes," Anders said, hands already roaming along her torso. "Easier to get started on the orgasms that way, too."

[spin_kick_snap]

"You know why I love you?" Kathy asked, her hand reaching down to stroke him through his pants. "You always have such great ideas."

Still kissing and caressing him, she led Anders to her bedroom, where electric candles gave the room a warm ambiance, and closed the door firmly behind them. Tonight, there was him and there was her and nothing and no one else.

"Now then, where were we?" she asked with dark eyes.

[not_every_mage]

"You were telling me what great ideas I had," Anders informed her, eyes widening in appreciation as he spread his hands over her breasts. "Which I appreciate, because you have some amazing ideas yourself."

[spin_kick_snap]

"I'm pretty sure your most recent brilliant idea involved us losing more clothing...?" Kathy asked, like she wasn't certain. "I know I'm looking forward to getting you out of your clothes." She leaned in, pushing his collar away so she could skim her teeth over the skin of his throat. "And then appreciating you and your 'good ideas' for the rest of the night."

[not_every_mage]

Anders laughed softly and skimmed his hands down to lift the bottom of her shirt. "There's no way I can argue with that idea."

[spin_kick_snap]

Kathy arched under his hands, then tried to angle him back towards her bed. "I want to straddle you while you undress me," she whispered. "And then strip you naked have have my way with you. That okay?"

[not_every_mage]

"More than okay," Anders told her as he sank down into the bed and beckoned for her to get closer. "It sounds like the perfect dessert."

[spin_kick_snap]

Kathy was only too happy to climb onto him, setting herself down onto his lap, directly over the bulge in his pants. She shivered as she settled onto him and then bent over to claim his mouth again. "You're so gorgeous it hurts," she breathed against his lips, her hands tugging at his shirt until they could slip beneath the fabric and caress his skin.

[not_every_mage]

"I'm not, but thank you for saying so," Anders told her, smiling at the touch of her hands as he began to work his shirt over his head. "You're the the gorgeous one."

[spin_kick_snap]

Kathy ducked, shaking her head as a slight flush stained her cheeks. It never ceased to surprise her that Anders could look at Dante and still consider her gorgeous, too.

She leaned forward and licked the lines of his neck down towards his chest as it became visible. "You're mistaken, but I'm not going to argue," she murmured, shifting her hips over his. "I want you to touch me everywhere."

[not_every_mage]

And Anders thought Kathy and Dante were both completely insane to look at him and think he was even in their league, so there you were.

"I don't think you could stop me from doing that," Anders said, and reached for the hem of her shirt. "Lift your arms."

[spin_kick_snap]

Kathy did as she was bade, arms over her head at she smiled down at him. Her shirt rose above the hem of her skirt, exposing several inches of creamy skin and taut muscles. "Talk to me?" she breathed. "Tell me what you want."

[not_every_mage]

"I want to feel you moving on top of me," Anders whispered, walking his fingers up that creamy abdomen. "I want to tease you until you can't stand it and you have to take me in, like you'll die if we don't. I want you to ride me until you come, and then turn you over and take you."
