Entry # 12: In a Good Mood – Waltz

She kisses him lingeringly, pales hands entwining themselves inextricably with shocks of red hair, gently attempting to sway herself away from the bedroom door. His body resists her push, only pressing itself closer to her own and the solid oak barrier. She giggles against his mouth, wrapping her arms around his neck and savoring the taste of his tongue as it slips its way into her mouth. Despite the taste of stale ale and ash now kissing themselves their way up her lips and into the back of her throat, she continues to expertly navigate their bodies to the exit of the apartment, engaging in a dance that the pair seem to know all too well.

She breaks apart from him, smiling softly. He smiles back and, in a rare display of affection, cups her cheek with his hand. He cracks a forgettable joke and she laughs, and they ignore that these meetings shouldn't really be happening.

Her face becomes serious and she tells him she loves him.

It is only until after he flees from her doorway and tears down the hallway that she lets her triumphant laugh ring.She stares at the sparkle of her newly stolen materia, marveling at how three little words could get him out of her apartment faster than the intricate waltz that they had created.
