After a moment of unexpected shock, Kel's brain registered what was happening, Kel kissed him back with all the love and desire that had been building inside her from the first time she realized that she had fallen for Dom.
As she kissed him back, Dom grew a little bolder, not afraid of her pulling away anymore. Moving his hand to the back of her head, he deepened the kiss. To his surprise it was Kel's tongue not his pleading for entrance first.
Lovers passionate was flooding through both of them, as their hands explored the each other's body, making them completely unaware of anything around them.
"UGH!!!! Dom?! KEL?!?!?" hullo! Dom! Kel!"
Alanna was in a rather good mood today, but getting the young couple who were so immersed in each other parting them was proving to be exasperating, and Alanna was not too pleased about the way they were acting.
Yelling from the riverbank was not working, and to Alanna the water was way to cold for her taste, there was no way she was going to wade in to stop them. Then, she did what any self respecting Knight that hated cold water would do. Alanna got on Darkmoon and waded out into the water. The Lady Knight hit both Kel and Dom on the head with the flat of her now unsheathed sword. Not hard, enough to do any damage but firm enough to make them stop clinging to each other and go sprawling into the water.
"Ow!!!!! That hurt!" Cried a very agitated sergeant.
"Who in the bloody hell-, oh." Kel said when she looked up at the person on the horse, quickly trying to no avail to cover herself. Both she and Dom turning a fiery red
"Go put some clothes on right NOW! You need to talk, and I need answer!"
Scrambling out of the stream, they grabbed their clothes and put them on in a hurry, not even trying to dry themselves off.
"Sit! You two had better have a damn good reason for this! But no, she said without even waiting for an explanation I really don't think you can call that anything other than what it was - canoodling"
Shocked silence; their mouth muscles must have needed to gain some more energy before they could speak.
"No! We didn't go that far."
Yet, Kel added silently to herself. She had really liked what had just happened, up until Alanna and her god-forsaken sword had shown up Moreover, Kel had every intention of doing it again. Dom sitting next to her and dripping wet was thinking exactly the same thing.
"Both of you were naked, kissing in a stream. When I grew up we that called canoodling and it still is. Am I right?" Alanna demanded.
"Yes" both of them said, shamefaced, still looking at there feet, not daring to look up into Alanna's face.
"Well...let me get this story straight. When did this 'thing'... "- She waved her hand to Dom Kel and the stream start?"
Dom looked over at Kel and smiled. I can't believe it started! I just kissed the girl, no, woman that I have been in love with since she became Lord Raoul's squire.
He had watched her battle metal monsters, immortals and take command of a refugee camp even when she had a quest to fulfill. Doing all this with out complaining showed him how strong a person she was,
Feeling her warm, wet thigh pressed against his was driving him crazy.
Why did Alanna have to interrupt things? Why the heck was she even here?
"Well! I'm waiting. Is someone going to tell me what I just walked in on?" Alanna raised her brow.
Kel looked down at the red headed Knight. "I don't think we can tell you what just happened, because we don't even know at this point." Adding a little shyly. It started right before you showed up." And hit us with your stupid sword.
"Well I am sorry I messed up your first kiss. Are you planning on announcing this to people? Because if you don't I will. Your friends deserve to know, both of you owe them that much."
"I don't know it is not like we have had time to talk about it." Kel was beginning to get agitated. Being interrupted in the middle of her first kiss with Dom, hit on the head with a sword and interviewed by Alanna while water dripped from her hair down the back of her neck was irritating.
"Fine. I will leave you both to talk this out. I expect you both back by supper, with all of this sorted out. Do you understand me? If supper time comes and you are not back, I will send Queenscove after you."
They both cringed at the thought of one of Neal's many lectures.
"We will be back. You have my word as sergeant of the Kings Own."
"And mine as a Lady Knight." Kel chimed in.
Alanna took a breath. "All right I will see you after supper in my room, were you will give me the answers I did not get now. Until then I won't tell anyone."
Watching Alanna's retreating back Kel sighed; she had gone easy on them. If Raoul, Neal or Buri had found them as they were earlier. It would not have been a pretty sight or sound for that matter. Kel was surprised that neither she nor Dom has bite marks. What ever had put Alanna in such a good mood or as good, a mood as she could possibly be in was very much appreciated.
Strong arms wrapped around her waist, warm lips met the back of her neck, sending goose bumps up and down her body.
"So what are we going to tell her?" Dom asked.
He was privately glad that his arms did not fit around her wait five times over like every court lady with whom he had ever danced.
"I don't know Dom. What is this? What just happened? I am really confused at this point."
Turning Kel in his arms so that he could look at her face Dom smiled.
"What just happened is something that I have wanted to happen for a long time. If you want to tell Alanna that there is nothing going to happen after this at least I can die happy."
Lifting her face just a little, she pressed her swollen lips to his. Feeling the same spark she had when they had first kissed, she pulled back and said.
"We can't tell her that because I don't want this to stop here."
