A high-pitched scream emanated from the main bathroom of Kevin's apartment. Before he even had a chance to ask her what was going on, Gwen opened the door and crossed the distance between them, practically shoving her body into his and nearly knocking him over.
She held onto him for dear life, clutching his T-shirt until her knuckles turned white as she buried her head into the crook of his neck. This only made him panic, however. "Gwen, what did you see?! What's-?"
"SPIDER!"
"A spider?" Kevin's worrisome expression melted away. "You blasted a Highbreed out the window that one time. How could you be afraid of an itsy-bitsy creepy-crawly?", he laughed.
Gwen lifted her head and looked at him with big, innocent eyes. She was so cute when she was scared. "W-Well, you've gone toe-to-toe with Vilgax and you're afraid of alligators!"
The black-haired boy now realized that his point was moot. "Okay, yeah, you win." Pulling her towards him, he pressed his lips to her cheek. "Don't worry, I got you." A slight smile crept up her face as she watched him rush into the bathroom rather heroically, confident that he was going to make everything okay.
Kevin found the culprit crawling around the toilet bowl without a care in the world. He almost felt sorry for what he was about to do to it. Almost.
Thinking on his feet, he coated himself in marble from the sink and brought his fist down on the offender, crushing it. He threw what remained of the creature into the toilet and flushed before shedding his armor and washing his hands.
He exited the bathroom, posing dramatically with his hands on his hips. "Nothin' to worry about. It's dead." As soon as he said those words, the Anodite sprinted towards him and threw her arms around his neck.
"My hero." Her lips met his and her tongue poked his bottom lip repeatedly, requesting access into his mouth. Kevin was more than happy to oblige, a grin forming on his lips as they granted her tongue passage. No sooner did his collide with hers, twisting and turning, warm flesh tangled in warm flesh. Gwen felt every hair on her body stand on end, giddy with pleasure.
She moaned as he turned her around and pinned her to the wall for support. With their mouths still merged, Kevin lightly slid his hands down her sides, finally resting them around the back of her waist. Any lower and it would have been the cause of an embarassing situation.
Gwen took the opportunity to break the kiss to address this, staring into his inviting obsidian orbs. "Thanks for being such a gentleman."
"Hey, of course! I'd never break your trust!", he assured her.
"One of the many, many reasons I love you." She brought her lips towards his, but stopped almost immediately, her body reminding her of what she intended to do before being so rudely interrupted by that pesky spider.
Gwen's eyes darted to the side. "I... have to go." Her body really had a twisted sense of timing.
She could see the gears turning in Kevin's head, confusion written all over his face. "What? Where to?" His genuine cluelessness was endearing, but not helpful.
She took a deep breath and looked at him once more, working up the courage to say two simple words. She wasn't sure if this was just a problem she was facing, or if all girls felt the same way. She was sure that it was plain awkward, though. How would one go about simply telling their boyfriends that nature was calling? The first time she tried, she walked miles away from a stakeout to a gas station to save face instead of allowing him to drop her off.
"Where-"
She cringed, deciding to just spit it out. "The bathroom!"
"OH!", he exclaimed, moving out of the way. "Oh, yeah! No need to ask, go!"
"T-Thank you." Utterly embarassed, she hung her head as she walked into the bathroom, making sure Kevin couldn't see the red in her cheeks.
As soon as the door closed behind her, the ex-con already sorely missed the taste of her soft lips and the warmth of her perfectly-sculpted body pressing against his. She really knew how to keep him wanting more, and he wouldn't change that for the world.
