She kissed him back, eagerly and happily. Would this moment dissolve like a soap bubble on a needle, as soon as she left the room? Maybe. But that was no reason not to enjoy it, while it lasted.
Sam didn't exactly get a lot of moments like this.
When he broke the kiss--stupid humans with their stupid need to breathe!--she closed her eyes, allowing one last wave of...what had she decided it was? Desire? Desire. One last wave of desire wash over her. But even as it did, he said what she knew he had to say.
And she nodded.
"Yeah. I can slip out before your room mates are up," she said, figuring he didn't need them gossiping about him. Probably teasing him. She would have, if their positions were reversed, anyway. And possibly wonder about his sanity.
She pulled away, sitting up and gathering her hair into her hands, at the base of her skull, so she could tie it in a knot and tuck it under her kerchief. "For the record, Danny," she said as she worked. "Not to put pressure on or anything. But this was one of the best mornings I've had in a really, really long time."
Yis!
