Pairing:
Ren/Kyoko
Note: Written for round six at fornicari, with
the prompt:
i want to kiss the back of your neck,
the
top of your spine where your hair hits,
and gnaw on your
fingertips and fall asleep,
i'll talk you to sleep. Lisa Loeb

Ren is no virgin. Women love him, women want him, and there was a time when he'd thought saying yes was both easier and safer. He hadn't loved any of them--but he had liked every one of them, and made sure that they enjoyed their time with him.
This is different. Kyoko is different.
He won't let himself think about Kyoko in his arms, in his bed, moving under him. Such thoughts are dangerous, and fray at his restraint. He has made Kyoko uneasy enough; letting loose his passion might drive her away altogether.
There are other thoughts, though, and these are just as dangerous. Ren thinks about holding Kyoko's hands in his own, kissing her open palms, pressing his lips to the delicate skin over her pulse. He thinks about slipping his arms around her waist, and listening to her laughter as she leans into his chest.
He thinks about her eyes, bright and wide with love.
Most of all, Ren thinks about truths and secrets and all the things that he might say to her, given the chance.
