A challenge is a challenge
So a bet was laid before him, he'd have to catch her when she had no clothes. He can't help but take her seriously. Rigging the locks to the bathroom was no big deal. She's also had some long days, and he's plenty quiet, so he's pretty sure making off with every item of clothing, the towels - pretty much every scrap of cloth but the washcloth she was using for her shower went unnoticed.
Ok, so sure, he could have peeked, but that isn't half as fun as listening to her reaction.
Everything is laid out neatly on her bed, her blades haven't been disturbed, and so on, and sure, she's a teleporter, but he's pretty sure she's not going to go anywhere that way if its not an emergency and she's unarmed.

He settles in a bit down the hall, sipping at a cup of coffee.

	"Me, no. I'm always ready for the next new thing." he replies, a touch contemplative as he rings the tip of a finger in flickering flame. "A little worried I'll burn someone who likes to live dangerously, maybe." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Nothing worth doing is without risk," she said with a grin. Another shot of vodka and then she finished off the last of her slice. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Maybe a little of both?" She chuckled and grabbed another slice of pizza. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh good, and here I thought I was losing track." he replies pleasantly, finishing the last of the first pizza and opening the other box after some reshuffling. "So what happens if I take you up on it?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Already did. I really got to admire your workout program by the way, toned everywhere. And was I seeing things, or despite working in Russia, do you have a distinct lack of tan lines?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Shall I say watch it again then? It is winter in Russia. There is sun, but it is very weak and colder than Hell to lay outside in nothing. I also burn very easily, so I do not sunbathe." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, it is a dimly lit room and all. Maybe I'd need a closer look to be sure. But if you insist, I'll gladly put it back in to watch next. Usually foreign cinema isn't my thing, but that one's growing on me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Irina laughed and then leaned over and kissed him. "You are a doll." She couldn't remember the last time she laughed so much in such a short time. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	vicious_cycle 2009-12-23 11:03 am UTC (link)
	He's not sure if he's surprised or not that he kisses her back, however briefly. "Hey, what can I say? I'm too nice for my own good." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	perenawska 2009-12-23 11:05 am UTC (link)

	perenawska 2009-12-23 11:10 am UTC (link)
	Irina nodded. "Da, which is why we make the best of the time we have now. Vodka. Pizza. Movie. Good company. Not a bad way to spend it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not bad at all. Can always get better, or maybe that's the vodka talking, but not bad at all." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Of course it could get better, which is why she leaned in again and kissed him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Oh what the hell. If she wants to live dangerously...

Its not going to be a quick, gentle kiss this time. The fingers of one hand curl in her hair, taking a firm hold and keeping her there as he kisses her back, hard. The kind of hard they don't show in nice romance movies, full of passion and tongue and teeth and maybe just the slightest hint of blood.
He may not have ended up damned through his own device, but he's not leaving any doubt he's not a choirboy either.

	Irina groaned and returned the kiss with equal intensity. Work had consumed much of her life leaving little time for a personal life. He was probably right when he said this was a mistake, but damn it was going to be a good mistake. She tasted the metallic taste of blood, hers or his, she didn't care. Fingers started to fumble with clothing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He doesn't even break the kiss as he gets up, pushing his hands under the backs of her thighs and lifting her up against him. She can handle the clothing. Still kissing her hard, he carries her towards the nearest bed. Definitely a mistake. Probably the vodka talking. But damn it, he's going to make sure its a hall of a mistake.
