Author's Notes: Please note that each chapter of this is its own distinct fic with its own distinct pairing (or no pairing). They are not meant to be read as one story. Each drabble/one-shot will have its pairing and summary clearly labeled.
Fair warning: I'll be writing both het and slash when it comes to pairings. If you don't like it, don't read it.
The slow sweep of his fingers down the side of her face makes her shiver, stomach muscles clenching when the rough catch of callouses smooth gently over her lower lip. It's his third pass over that spot, his third brush against the swell of her lips, and she has to fight the urge to lick them; to swallow harder than absolutely necessary.
He would feel it then. He would feel it and he would stop and she doesn't want him to right now. Not yet, not just yet. Not until he's done, not until he's – he's seen her.
Another pass against her lips, with thumbs this time, which press softly and then drag away. Fingertips gliding down her jaw, over her chin, to the tender flesh of her neck. She shivers again, gives into the urge to sweep her tongue against the phantom warmth still burning against her mouth.
The hands – the touch – pulls away slowly then, hovering for a moment, suspended in midair as if he wants to touch her again, to drag his fingers over her lips, before they fall away.
"Karen," he murmurs quietly, the sound a tingling warmth that flares brightly in her stomach. "You're beautiful."
