Shepard had been so focused on her proximity to Garrus that she hadn't noticed her love walk up behind her, but in the end his interference had been a great help. She was surprised at how quickly Garrus adjusted, wrapping his long arms around her and holding her like she was his only hope for salvation.
Slowly, tentatively, she brought her hands up to rest on his narrow, sensitive waist and began to explore it, ghosting her fingers across his rough skin and gently teasing and kneading in the most sensitive places. She could feel Thane's eyes on her from her nearby couch. He lounged back, encouraging and observing her as a purr rumbled in Garrus' chest, the pressure of the turian's head against her's increasing as he became more and more aroused. For once she was grateful she had watched the vids that had made her feel so guilty.
It was a bit ironic, the way Mordin had zeroed in on her feelings for both men almost immediately. It had been INCREDIBLY awkward for her when he had taken her aside, in private of course, and warned about the complications for... liaisons with each of their species. He had sent her two information packets, one for drell-human relationships and the other for turian-human ones. She remembered being taken aback at the time, it wasn't even obvious to her whether or not she still had feelings for Garrus. It surprised (and if she was completely honest, concerned) her a bit that he has keyed into them.
Even though at the time neither Thane nor Garrus had made a move, she felt she had a better shot with Thane. After all, while Garrus had been with her during her fight against Saren and never made a move, Thane at least had been properly flirting with her. No, it wasn't until tonight that she had even considered being with Garrus as a real option.
Still, feeling a bit guilty at her curiosity, she had investigated both data packets, telling herself knowledge was power and there was no harm in knowing... It was a source of guilty pleasure that those diagrams, articles, and vids had lead her to do a little extranet searching of her own. Her favorites were the vids quite similar to what was happening now if only Thane would-
The feeling of thick mouth plates nibbling at her ear drew her back to the present. She moaned softly as Garrus' long, rough tongue lathed from the underside of her jaw up behind her ear. She tilted her head back, her hair flowing down her back and baring her neck to give him better access, surprised when he paused for a moment. What could be wrong?
