A/N: Man. I left this chapter off for so long...I think I started this draft in 2019 and it just sat there because I was particularly picky about how I wanted to portray their "first time" considering I am also trying to tie it into the canonical plotline as realistically as I can. Also, this is my second time at writing a 'losing their virginity' scene so I wanted to make it good and also differentiate from the first time I wrote such a scene. And then a lot of times I was either not in the mood, or in the mood for something way raunchier, or way fluffier, so...yeah. Took me a long time before I came up with a way to resolve and/or get through all these outstanding issues, so hopefully the rest of the fic will come a lot easier.


"A, Adam..." Sio couldn't help it; tears welled up as she scrunched her face, doing her best to not break down yet again but Adam only patted her hand and handed her a tissue, which she gratefully accepted. "S-Sorry...I-I didn't mean to get all emotional again..."

"It's alright; I think it's been quite an emotional day for both of us," he stroked her arms lightly. "Seriously though; if you're not in the mood for any romantic shenanigans, then we should just stop and get some rest. There'll be other opportunities, later on."

Would they? 'Who's to say we're even going to have time for a nice date after this? Just because we found Asao-san doesn't mean our enemies are going to take a break...' And more morbidly, there was also the lingering fear that something could happen to either of them before that chance came; it wasn't about dying a virgin or something trite like that, but the events of late had taught her to relish the present, instead of always trying to control the future.

"Sio...?" Adam blinked in surprise as the girl started toying with the straps of her nightgown, as if she were thinking of taking it off. "You're, uh..."

"...Maybe I'm being the selfish one here, but I...don't see why we can't continue. Er, to do, it. I mean why not? Uh...that's not to say, if you don't want to right now..."

Adam bit his lips, shaking his head in mild amusement. "No, you're not selfish at all...if anything, I want to say I'm the selfish one, for hoping you'd want to continue. Nobody's stopping us from doing what we want."

A nod. "Right. So, uh. How...do we do this."

The two stared at the sheets as an awkward silence descended the room. Neither had much ideas on how to begin; sex ed class (and in Adam's case, smut) had given them some basic understanding and theory, but when it really came down to it Adam found himself struggling on how to take the lead, or if he even should.

"I...well, to be perfectly honest I've never done this before," he gave an embarrassed laugh, but it seemed to break the ice as Sio let out a small giggle herself. "So, we should just...do what we feel like...and go from there. After all, I've come to realise, neither of us are much good at sticking to plans."

"Mmn...it sounds silly, b, but I'm...actually kind of glad this is your first time, too...n, not that it would make a difference but...I feel if we both learn together...that makes me less nervous..." Secretly though, she was glad they would be each others' firsts; Sio liked to think she was fairly open-minded, and truthfully, even if Adam did have a girlfriend in the past it wouldn't have mattered—but somehow the thought of him being with someone other than her filled her with a gnawing discontent.

"Then let's continue where we left off." Just before their lips met again though, Sio felt herself being pushed back, this time by Adam. "Wait, sorry...I'm so sorry, but it just occurred to me we should probably use..." his face turned red with embarrassment, "...a condom. Or some other type of protection...last thing we need is another incident..." He gave her a sheepish glance. "I suppose it's a bit much to ask if you have any..."

Ah. A rubber. Sio's lips split into a nervous grin. "Er, um, n, no...I thought, you'd might have some...s, since, you're a guy and all...n-not that I mean anything by that it's just I thought this stuff is pretty standard for guys to keep around—agh!" She grasped her hair in frustration. Why did she always say things without thinking it through? "N, Not that I'm insinuating you think about sex all the time or anything like that—"

She heard Adam trying not to chuckle at her reactions, which only made the sniper turn even redder. Of all the things she'd read about when it came to 'the first time', somehow none of them ever mentioned how awkward it could be. 'I guess I shouldn't be surprised that real life is never like what I imagined...'

"Well, I guess if we don't have a condom, it's not the end of the world; there are other methods we can use, like a morning-after pill," Adam mused quietly, "though if we do go that route I'd better make a note so we don't forget tomorrow morning—"

"—W-Wait, I just remembered actually...now that you mention it, I am on birth control," the sniper mumbled shyly, face blushing a dark pink. Adam raised an eyebrow, but didn't say anything. "It, it's not what you think it's for—after I joined DOGOO, the doctor recommended I be on it to help regulate my...y'know, 'time of the month' so it wouldn't get in the way when I'm fighting...and it also helps decrease all the crappy stuff that comes with it..." Sio buried her face in the pillow; somehow, frankly discussing her PMS symptoms was more embarrassing than figuring out contraceptives.

A hand gently patted her on the shoulder and her eyes peeked up to see Adam quirking a grin. "Ah, that's fortunate for us then; if you're already taking it regularly, we won't even have to worry about anything tomorrow." Slowly he lifted the sniper up from the covers, Sio shivering as his fingertips brushed against her shoulders; all of a sudden her skin was much more sensitive, goosebumps erupting even though she wasn't cold at all.

"You know...I'm glad we met; that day in Taiwan, no matter what I said back then...I think, I was already captivated from you by the start," he gave her a hapless grin. "Only I was too much of a stubborn bastard to admit it."

"Well, and we were kind of in a desperate situation...but even then, even though you were all scary with that giant knife, I couldn't help but think, 'wow, that's pretty cool...'"

Adam threw back his head and laughed. "Cool? I'll take it as a compliment, I guess." Slowly he palmed her face, fingers running through those snow-white locks of hers. "I can only hope I'll continue to be 'cool' for you, Sio Ogura."

And without another word he kissed her, deeply this time. Sio felt herself tilting backwards, allowing him a better angle as their lips parted, and to her surprise she found herself welcoming his tongue against her own, even though she despised Newton's greetings.

'It really is different when you do it with someone you love...' Sighing, her fingers tangled into his silvery locks, relishing how soft and fine they were. For someone who carried himself in such a rough manner, Sio was pleasantly surprised to discover that Adam took decent care of himself, if only so she could selfishly appreciate how good it felt to touch him. Not just his hair, but even his skin—which, pale as it was, felt unexpectedly smooth and warm beneath her fingertips. As their lips and tongues continued to tangle with each other, Sio became bolder; hands now grasping his shoulders, then his arms, marveling at the steel cords of his muscles.

It was strange to be concentrating so intently on his physical features, but she wouldn't deny the excitement coursing through her body. The thrill of touching him at last, feeling him so intimately...they weren't doing anything major yet, but already the sniper felt her body flushing with a heady sort of pleasure, her mind descending into a haze that caused her to think less, instead going with whatever felt right. Adam's hands were wandering all over her torso as well, as she started to lift the edge of his shirt up-to see if the rest of his body really was as warm as she imagined.

"Whoa there, you're more eager than I thought," a husky whisper, Adam grinning suggestively as Sio blushed. "Not that I mind...not at all...I've always liked this side of you." He leaned back slightly and took off the t-shirt, and she couldn't help but gasp a little at the sight. Of course she'd seen him shirtless before; that one time she accidentally walked in on him changing (and subsequent peeks before/after battles), but this time he was allowing her to look, letting her gaze wander shamelessly. Pale, alabaster-white skin that she was sure would be warm to the touch, though here and there were signs of scarring—especially the jagged gash on his left side, a mark of their first encounter in Taiwan. Her eyes slid to his pecs and she couldn't help but almost hide her face with her hands. 'Whoa, men have nipples too...I-I mean, I know that, but still...' They were a slight pale-pink, the tips starting to form into buds from the sudden chill. Sio gulped as the very air seemed to be crackling with unspoken tension and all of a sudden something inside her pulsed to life.

Damn, he's hot. Sio felt her entire body heat up and her heart beat faster. Even before she admitted to herself she liked Adam as a person, she couldn't deny her physical attraction. With broad shoulders, a well-defined jawline and (she knew from experience) strong arms that were perfect for holding, it was a wonder nobody else got him first. He was tall and well-built, with muscles that seemed etched into place—her eyes widened ever so slightly as her gaze settled on that toned six-pack, Adam smirking a bit at her gaping reaction.

"Like what you see?"

Without thinking Sio nodded, slack-jawed until she realized she was drooling. "Yea—h-huh? U-Uh, I-I, I mean..." She blushed heavily, wiping her mouth and Adam chuckled.

"Don't be shy, squirt. I recall you certainly weren't that time you just walked straight in and stared."

"Th-th, that was an accident! I-I'm not that shameless," she mumbled, "or a pervert..."

"Truth be told, I wouldn't mind if you were," he moved closer and Sio blushed even harder, "I love all of you, Sio Ogura. Even the pervert side."

She whined in protest, which only made Adam smile wider. Those burgeoning feelings had been scary at first; the sniper confused as to how someone who constantly argued with her could also make her so hot and bothered at the same time, but eventually she'd come to enjoy the sensations, albeit secretly.

Now though, there was no need to hide those feelings any longer.

"C, Can I...touch you?"

Emeralds blinked at her slowly, Adam a bit startled at her forward request. But it was that sincerity that made him love her more.

"...Sure, Sio." To encourage her, he took her slim hand and placed it against his chest, her maroons wider than saucers as those fingertips brushed the skin, as if not believing this was happening. "Don't be afraid."

"I, I'm...not afraid," she murmured, almost in a trance as she traced his skin along every crease and muscle, forming invisible patterns. Warm, so warm... Slowly she pressed a palm against his chest, feeling the steady thumping of his heartbeat. "Whoa..."

Adam didn't say word; instead he simply let the sniper touch her fill, watching her quietly as her face lit up with wonder. It was amazing, really, to see her fascination at merely exploring his body; to touch and see for herself what he was like underneath everything, literally. Her fingers were hesitant at first, tracing with feather-light touches that almost made him laugh, but as her curiosity continued they were more confidant: smooth strokes against ridges of muscle, trails of heat along his collarbone, and when her nail just lightly grazed his nipple he let out quiet grunt, Sio looking at him in surprise.

"Oh! I'm sorry, did that hurt?"

"No, no…I'm fine. It's not painful…it feels, quite nice, actually." What Adam really wanted to say was that her touches were turning him on, but he didn't want to scare her off or seem crass. Still, it was getting harder to hold his breath steady; certainly she could feel the increase in his pulse as both hands now wandered all over, Adam quietly gritting his teeth to suppress a moan.

"Nng..." As her hands ran over a second time however, Adam couldn't stop his voice from coming out. "Ah…"

The sniper stopped, startled at the noise he was making, but then she noticed Adam's expression. It was one she'd never seen before; with heavily lidded eyes that were almost closed, his emeralds a deep green with a healthy blush spreading across both cheeks. If she didn't know any better, it was almost as though he were…embarrassed?

"U-Uh, Adam…are you okay?"

He nodded, though Sio noticed his breathing was shaky; as if he were trying to restrain himself. "Y-Yeh, don't…I'm fine, squirt. Just…your hands, they feel…quite good…" He took a deep breath to steady himself. "...Mind if I...also...?"

"Eh…eh? A-Ah, I-I…uh huh…" Sio turned ten shades of red in the span of a few seconds, the butterflies in her stomach now coming back with a vengeance. Touch…me? For some reason the concept seemed entirely foreign to her, even though she was doing the exact same thing to him. The idea that he really wanted to feel her skin, to see her true self…a bit awed at the realization, the sniper nodded silently, slowly lifting up her nightgown and, before her courage faded she flung it off, suddenly incredibly nervous as her arms hugged her modest chest, now sitting in nothing but her underwear. "U-Uh, um…I, is this…okay?"

So cute.

The way she was avoiding his gaze but still trying to look at him, cheeks painted a rosy flush as her arms crossed her petite chest. It wasn't a secret the sniper had one of the flattest busts out of everyone at DOGOO; but right now, to him, she was perfect. He didn't even realize he'd been holding his breath until he let it out; Adam wanted to get her to open her arms but was afraid of forcing her too soon. Instead, he settled for gently brushing down her shoulders, fingering strands of her locks that were now as white as his own.

She's so small—

His hands are so large—

Not sure what to do, Sio simply sat there as Adam smoothed his fingertips across her skin—again, the contrast between them seemed to stick in her mind: how much larger his hands were yet they felt incredibly warm; the gentleness with which he touched her, even though she knew he could decapitate an Object in a blink of an eye. 'Like light and dark, or two sides of the same coin', he told her once shortly after Nightingale was revealed. Before she knew it her own hand took his, and without any hesitation placed it against her breast.

"Uhm…" Adam was at a loss for words; no matter the situation, the sniper never failed to surprise him. Not only did she bare herself but she was the one encouraging him now, his hand enclosed around the soft, silken mound of her petite breast. "You're amazingly soft…" A calloused finger ran over the raised pink nipple, marveling at how it reacted to his touch. Especially the way her breast fit so perfectly into his palm, with just a bud of pink at the end that stiffened the more he touched it…swallowing nervously, Adam shifted his legs slightly, hoping Sio wouldn't notice the bulge that was starting to form between them.

"Is…are they, okay? I-I'm…sorry they're so small…" A slight stutter peppered her voice as the sniper turned her head, eyes averted as she stared into her lap. 'What if he prefers someone like Newton's, instead of mine…'

"…I beg your pardon?" The mood took a backseat as Adam stared at the sniper in disbelief. "What in the world are you apologizing for Sio? There's nothing wrong with you." His hand traced from her nipple to the scar that now sat across the otherwise flawless skin, his brows furrowing slightly at the sight. It was healed up now, but the memory of that day was still fresh in his mind.

"They are definitely not too small…I think, honestly, they suit you quite well. They're cute. You're cute."

Sio squeaked, face a bright red as Adam quirked an eyebrow, though secretly she was pleased he found her attractive. She squeaked again as he started fondling the peak, surprised at how warm it made her feel.

"Th, thanks...that makes me happy, you know? I've always thought, I'm just a below-average girl...I certainly don't have any assets worth mentioning, so...to hear that, you think I'm c, cute...I'm glad," she whispered shyly, tucking a strand of white locks behind her ear. "I, I never thought I'd be able to...well, be with someone as good-looking as you..."

There was a nervous chuckle from the man, who was now looking away with a blush. "Funny you say that...I know for a fact some people think my eyes are too downturned, or that I look like the Ripper himself when I scowl."

"Ah..." Come to think of it, she did hear Galileo offhandedly refer to Adam as "Mr. Droopy Eyes" one time, but she didn't even notice it. "Well, for what it's worth...I've never noticed it. W-Well, except that maybe you are kind of...intense...when you're angry. But, your eyes," Adam stilled as she reached up and cupped his face, "I don't think I've ever seen that shade of green before. So, vibrant..."

Her breath was warm, the air sweetly scented with something distinct. Before he could even respond she leaned forward and closed the gap, kissing him deeply. Time seemed to stop and flow all at once as he automatically welcomed her into his arms, holding her tight as their lips moved in sync. Now that her nightgown was gone, the bare heat of her skin pressed against his chest; her nipples occasionally rubbed against his and he shuddered each time it happened. One hand wound behind her head to push her closer, deeper and as the girl fell into his embrace, his chest rumbled with pleasure.

So soft. Every part of her he could reach was warm and smooth against his hands, the girl tangling his strands between her fingers. Even though she felt so small and delicate in his grasp, Adam knew her inner strength was more than enough to carry both of them. Her arms wound tightly behind his neck, the girl somehow having shifted in the last few minutes so she was now sitting firmly in his lap.

"M-Mmnn...A-Adam..." Each time their breaths grew short, there was only a brief pause for air before they swept up into each other again. Their tongues tangled with each others' as their hands swept all over. Her skin was delightfully warm and smooth, her curves giving in just slightly as he pulled her tight. A full, heady pleasure was working its way through all his senses—he felt himself growing stiffer as they kissed, and though he was embarrassed that Sio would soon sense his erection, a part of him wanted to show her—proof, of how intense she could make him feel.

'There's...something hard pushing against me...?' For a second Sio thought she'd moved too far, but a quick glance told her she was still seated squarely between his legs. 'Wait, between his legs...' Her eyes grew wide as she finally came to the realization.

"A-Ano, Adam... You, your uh, um..." She blushed heavily, looking away nervously as she tried to but failed to finish the sentence. "Is that...um..." The sniper twirled her hair around one finger, looking at anything but his face or that...thing...

Instead of answering her however, he merely thrust upwards slowly, eliciting a gasp from the girl as she felt the full stiffness of his arousal. "Hnn...what do you think, love?" He thrust again for emphasis, the sniper squeaking a bit this time as the tip dug into that warm junction between her legs.

"I-I, u-um—ah—!" She squealed again as Adam started thrusting very slowly, up and down; the sensation was both foreign yet delightful, sending a rush of heat throughout her entire body. "Nnng...it's...ah..." Too embarrassed to admit it felt good, Sio buried her face against the crook of his neck, instead. "Mmmn..."

Despite having no experience, she certainly caught on quick. Within a minute she started rocking her hips, trying to match his own clumsy rhythm. "S-Sio..." Adam didn't finish his sentence before groaning deeply, pulling the girl deeper into his lap. "Feeling good?" His large hands firmly gripped her round bottom, relishing the soft, yielding flesh.

"Ah...uh, uhn..." Sio could only nod shyly, but there was no mistaking the heat simmering in her belly. 'I-It feels...good, rubbing against it like this...' It was hot and stiff, and even through her underwear she could feel it brush against her most sensitive spot, causing her insides to tighten in a most pleasing manner. His hands felt good, too; one arm wound around her waist to support her, while the other brushed soothing patterns against her breasts. The heat from his body penetrated through to her very core, yet she couldn't seem to get enough. Their tongues continued tangling as their bodies started moving in sync, Sio tasting him all around as he wrestled against her lips. The faster she pushed her hips, the better it felt—and it seemed to be the same for Adam, given the moans that were quietly vibrating against her lips.

"Sio...can I..." He pulled away, gasping for air as the girl did the same. "Your knickers..." A single finger pushed down the waistband and she knew what he was asking.

"...Only if I can do the same, Adam," came her quiet response, Adam nodding in agreement. In one smooth gesture, her slender fingers slipped underneath the elastic and firmly gripped his shaft, Adam letting out a slight cry from the sensations.

"Guh—!" His hips instantly jerked upwards on instinct, before he forced himself to remain calm. "N, Not so hard..." No more words came out as the sniper stroked him inside his boxers, gently exploring his entire length and thumbing the sensitive, swollen head that was already leaking precum. "Oh..." Her hand was small, but it gripped him so perfectly as she deepened the strokes, Adam gritting his teeth as his erection throbbed with pleasure. A tight tripwire was being wound inside him, moreso after the sniper started gently teasing his nipples again with her free hand.

'Am I doing okay? I must be...' Her cheeks flushed with an intoxicating pleasure, Sio now aroused by Adam's reactions. As Jack the Ripper, he could mow down wave after wave of EIOs without breaking a sweat. She'd seen him continue fighting even when he was covered with blood, and now he was being undone by nothing more than her slender hands and delicate touches. Something slippery leaked out of the tip and she stopped briefly, rubbing the clear fluid between her fingers.

"Um, Adam...is this, normal?" Was it sperm? 'But I thought that was white and sticky, not clear...'

"Nnng—huh? Oh, that's," Adam heaved a deep breath, muscles still trembling from her ministrations, "it's...precum. Not sperm, if that's what you're wondering..."

"O-Oh, okay...sh, should I, keep going then?" Even as she said this the sniper continued rubbing the tip, taking advantage of the precum's natural lubrication to slide his foreskin up and down, then over the bulbous tip that was practically throbbing in time with his pulse. The muscles in his thigh twitched from the sensations, the one finger inside her waistband now withdrawn as he grew lost in the pleasure she was giving him.

"U-Uh...I, I..." Adam wasn't going to last much longer; the sheer amount of pre-ejaculate leaking out was a sure sign, nevermind the tight ball of heat that was about to burst from his groin. His cock gave another twitch as her fingers gently rubbed the edge of his foreskin, digging around the sensitive tip curiously. "Hnng—s, stop Sio, that's enough for now..."

"Sorry...!" She sat back as Adam breathed hard, his erection creating an obvious tent within his boxers. Still rubbing the remains of his precum between her fingers, Sio wondered if it was similar to the dampness now seeping between her own legs; she had her panties on, but just by crossing her thighs she felt the moist fluids accumulating down there. "Do you want to take a break?"

Adam furrowed his brows. On one hand, he was very close; but on the other, it seemed a bit pitiful to come first. In all his dreams and fantasies, their first climaxes would be together, right at the same time—though reality was making it very clear that would not be the case.

"Not particularly; it's just...I'm quite close to, finishing..."

She did the head tilt thing again, a puzzled expression on her face. "Finishing...? Finish what?" How did you even know you were, well, done?

Adam almost let out an exasperated sigh, but held back just in time. This girl, sometimes... "...Climax, Sio. Or y'know, an..." he took a deep breath, "orgasm." He sincerely hoped Sio knew what that was; otherwise things were going to get real awkward, real fast.

Her eyes grew wide as saucers, which was all the answer Adam needed. "R, right, of course..." She let out a nervous laugh. "B, But um, isn't that the whole point? What's wrong with...c, climaxing? I mean, it feels good, right?"

He nodded. "Yeh, it is...but for most guys, once we...finish, we have a bit of a 'cooldown' period, so to speak. So if I come now...I won't be able to do it again for a bit." The sniper nodded slowly, as she digested this information. "And...call it selfish, but I was hoping we'd be able to...do it together."

His face was as pink as she'd ever seen, his brows completely raised instead of being furrowed into his signature scowl. It made him look much younger for a change. And cuter. He was so adorable when he showed his sincerity, the vulnerability that made up the human side. Sio couldn't help but giggle slightly, which only caused Adam to blush harder.

"O-Oy, what're you laughing at...I'm being serious here..."

"N-No, I'm not—sorry, it's just...you're soo cute, Adam..." The sniper tried her best to stop smiling so broadly. "Th, that's so...that's so sweet of you...um..." She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, trying to regain a more serious expression. "Honestly, I don't mind; just being together like this...is more than enough. Like you said, things never really go according to plan; so why stress about it?" She scooted closer, gingerly poking the tip through his boxers and Adam hissed through his teeth.

"Besides, this'll feel good for you, right? If you need a break, so what." As she said all this, her hand dipped back inside and gripped him firmly. It was hard and throbbing against her palm, but also soft and extremely hot. The organ twitched as if it were alive, Sio's eyes growing hooded as she drank in the sight of Adam reacting as she slowly sped up her strokes. A strange ache was growing between her legs, but Sio ignored it as she slowly eased herself into his lap, her hands continuing to move all the while as small gasps and moans started emitting from the man. Even though she wasn't the one receiving pleasure, just watching his reactions—and knowing she was giving it to him—gave her goosebumps and sent shivers throughout her body. 'Whoa...I can't believe something so simple can make him feel so good...and his expressions...'

Adam's breath was coming in shorter and shorter pants; at times it seemed like he stopped breathing entirely, before letting out a cross between a whine and a sigh. "H-Hnnng...! Nngg, S-Sio..." So his fantasy of them coming together was a wash, but at this point Adam couldn't care about anything other than how good it felt—how soft and dexterous her hands were, the way she carefully paid attention to certain areas that felt especially pleasurable... The sniper's solid weight on his legs was a welcome warmth, Adam barely able to keep his eyes open at this point as she shyly leaned forward, and gave just the tiniest flick of her tongue against his nipple. "Gah! Y, You..."

"How's this? Good?" Adam could only nod, watching with hazy emeralds as the sniper tucked a long strand of pale hair behind her ear. "Ah, okay..." Her fingers continued along his length, smooth and steady as his groin started tightening and a familiar tingle forming in the pit of his stomach.

"O-Oh...god...!" The first waves were coming, faint for now but he knew the big one would break soon. His boxers and Sio's hand were wet with precum, letting the sniper stroke and pull his foreskin easily, especially over the sensitive tip—he groaned softly as another throb of pleasure pulsed through him, but Adam managed to hold back. "Mnnn...uhhn, hnng..." His muscles were pulled tight and twitching, Adam feeling the contractions building around his groin. He tried to tell her it was close, that within the next couple of seconds he was going to cum but the words remained stuck in his throat. "I-I—nnng...!"

He stiffened and lurched forward, Sio too startled to even do anything other than watch as Adam quivered intensely and his hips jerked upwards in rough, uneven motions; a hot, thick liquid spilled all over her fingers inside his boxers, and without looking she instinctively knew he'd 'come', and it was his seed she was feeling. Adam was panting with long, deep gasps, his heated breath fanning her neck as he rested slightly against her petite frame. The sniper felt incredibly flushed herself, still unsure of whether she could remove her hand, and so she settled for gently patting him on the back, as the other slowly stroked him just a bit more.

"Nng—! A-Alright, that's enough..." Adam winced as he very slowly unwound her delicate fingers from his softening penis, which was currently incredibly sensitive. "Fuck, that was, that..." He heaved another sigh as Sio combed out his hair, the relaxing afterglow phase overtaking his senses as his vision blurred slightly and his hearing grew muffled.

"Okay, you definitely need a break," Sio remarked drily, especially as the man tilted back against the headboard in a dazed manner. "Shh, just rest for now, Adam. We have all the time in the world."

Her pets were soothing to his tired body, Adam nodding vaguely as he relaxed against the pillows. That's right, just because he came first didn't mean he couldn't satisfy her. After all, there was more than one way to show his affections towards her... Eyes opening, he sat up with a bit of a start, Sio jumping at his sudden motion. "Oy love, c'mere," he motioned with his hand and she crawled towards him, before he pulled her into a warm hug. "That was amazing; now, I'd like to return that favor..."

"Ah...Adam? You sure you don't need to rest a bit more?" The girl eyed him with an uncertain look as they swapped positions, the sniper now reclining amongst the sheets. "You just said guys have a cooldown period..."

"Yes, but that doesn't mean I have to sit around doing nothing. I haven't had my turn yet to make you feel good," he smirked and his pointed teeth showed slightly, "or did you think there was only one way to do this?"

Sio blushed, uncertain what he meant but she definitely wanted to find out. "I...w, well then, I'll leave it to you, Adam. I'm in your hands now...so, please take care of me."

He knew the sniper meant it in the most innocent and sincere of manners, but, as Adam realized, she also had a penchant for saying unintentional double entendres. Despite coming a few minutes ago, he could feel his pulse speeding up, that familiar rush of heat starting to flood his body. He licked his lips as he silently vowed to definitely take good care of Sio; with any luck, by the time she was finished he'd be ready again.

"Of course...Sio. Your wish is my command."
