"It's pretty rude to keep a guy waiting like that." Claude grinned down at Byleth's form as she took one last tentative step onto the landing. "You sure are a sight for sore eyes though."
He looked her up and down slowly before giving an annoyed frown "It's been five years but you haven't changed a bit! I thought your hair would at least have grown longer…" he grumbled to himself as she took a step into the sunlight. His complaints hitched it his throat upon the full sight of her, his new height forced her to look up at him activating her doe eyed charm
"Where've you been, Teach?" His voice came out huskier than he meant but it didn't seem to rattle her
"I don't know… I think I was sleeping."
Her deadpan voice brought life to his eyes, oh how he'd missed it
"Never took you for a heavy sleeper, Teach."
She frowned at him in annoyance, not seeing the way his grin widened, "I know it's silly but it's true."
"Never doubted ya for a second." He sent her a playful wink and for the first time he noticed how her blush reached the curve of her ears and spread down her neck
As if in a dream, for he had dreamed of this day many times before, he took a step closer to her pressing her back into the stone wall and cupped her chin. Without another word he kissed her, burning his passion into her lips before softening timidly already afraid he had driven her away. He felt small hands push against his chest and he withdrew with such speed that they both stood stunned
"S-sorry, it's just been so long!" 'A date, shithead!' "Ah but you're probably hungry and confused if you've been asleep for 5 years! I have some food to share if-" he stopped, back as straight as a rod it never occurred to him that she might distance herself "...if you still want my company. I'm sorry Teach, it really was impulse." He cast his eyes out shamefully to the forests below
Byleth cleared her throat shyly, pushing a strand of hair behind her ear "Byleth. I'm not your teacher anymore, but I'm happy to know we're still friends." He stared up at her as if she was a goddess, she was a goddess! She had cut open the sky, and transformed, why did he think forgiving him would take a miracle when she made miracles happen all around her
"Byleth…" he muttered it unconsciously, gaining her attention
"Yes Claude?" She gave him an expectant smile when her stomach chose to chime in loudly. Her face bloomed with embarrassment and she hid behind her hands
He grinned, never thinking he would enjoy such a cute side of his former professor. "Byleth, would you do me the honor of having lunch with me?"
He held the wine skin and bag of provisions readily and thrust them out to her. Her shame seemed to dissipate at his kind action and she took them without hesitation. They ate and drank alternating between bouts of chatting animatedly about happier times, and Claude's somber battle reports
"You've grown quite tall." The comment was innocent but it renewed the flame within Claude
"Do you like tall?" He purred, leaning a little closer to her
"A-as a type? I suppose." She looked away and sipped from the wine skin
He stared wondering how she would taste now that she was tinted with wine
"Go on." He urged, attempting to calm himself
"Oh uh well I've never really thought about it. I never had time for boys before."
"What about someone who's ruggedly handsome, deviously clever, and stunningly humble?" He leaned closer to her again, reaching out tentatively for her hand
The touch surprised her, her head turning suddenly to bring his into view. Wine wafted from her lips and he clenched his freehand into a fist, flexing it slowly to maintain control
"Claude… it all feels like days ago you were my students."
"And your little glances?" He pressed quickly, afraid to leave anything unsaid "The way you blush when I look at you? For you it was yesterday, but I've spent five years wishing I could have kissed you in the Goddess Tower. You mean more to me than you know, but if you let me I will show you." His voice was a whisper now but the damage was already done
"I-I admit we have a mutual attraction but you're so… different now! I'm just a little taken aback by how much everything's changed."
"Then let me help you relax." He purred again before catching her lips in his own, his tongue pressing forth without permission and swirled around her own. The taste of wine transferred to Claude as he clutched her to him. His heart sang as her tongue timidly coaxed his own and her fingers moved to the base of his neck to entwine in hair there
He lowered her softly to the grass, never loosening his grip as if she would disappear again. Calming his fragile heart he pledged to verify her reality to himself in every possible way, his fingers working secretly behind her
No sooner than she hit the grass, Byleth felt her choker slide heavily to the side and fall from her. The unannounced thud further distracted her from her corset, now laying limp and open at her back
"Claude wait…" she looked up at him bashfully, her lips already deliciously swollen and he wasted no time in devouring them once again
Byleth moaned headily into his lips, her tongue searching desperately for his. His lips moved into an exuberant smile, his fingers tracing lightly against her exposed skin. She shuddered in pleasure at the surprising touch and didn't fight when he slid it over her head. His touch moved up to her chest, squeezing and pulling at her breast, each action eliciting a sensual moan from the young maiden
'Soon to be queen.' he grinned again, withdrawing his lips downward to her bosom where he nipped and kissed to lay his claim. His fingers busied themselves as they traveled down the front of her shorts. The tip of his finger pressed questioningly at her moistening entrance
She moaned and squeaked with surprise, her hips bucking softly in his hand. 'Oops.' he purred to himself, his finger pressing into her pussy. He curled his finger slowly, pressing into her, then tantalisingly pulling it back out only to repeat his little game
Byleth was a moaning mess beneath him, her marked body now touched with a fire she did not know how to release. Fingers pumped in and out of her, Claude licking his lips as he slid a third into her spasming body. Calming his newly surfaced sadism he found the spot that left her screaming and pumped hard into it
Byleth heard waves drowning out everything around her as sensation oozed through her body and she stilled in his arms. His hands withdrew from her shorts, tugging them back into place and haphazardly relacing her corset
'All in good time.' he smiled to himself, petting the sleeping woman's hair.
"Gotta save something for the wedding." He chuckled under his breath, pulling her into his lap, worried that she might again fall out of his reach
