Prompt Four: Candy Canes
"Hinata, you do realise that the candy canes are supposed to go on the tree, right?" Itachi asked, laughing slightly as the young woman in front of him turned quickly, a look of guilt and embarrassment crossing her face as she continued to chew on the red and white stick in her mouth.
"I know," she said, turning to fully face him, "I couldn't resist though!" She smiled.
She was sitting at the bottom of their Christmas tree, hanging baubles and ornaments carefully on the lower branches.
"How many have you had?" He asked, coming to sit down on the floor beside her.
"Um," she paused, her face turning a light pink, "this is my t-third." She admitted.
He laughed, gently reaching out to stroke her soft cheek.
"Ok, but no more?" he requested, reaching over to lightly kiss her forehead.
She nodded up at him, smiling brightly.
The two sat together, quietly hanging decorations together.
As the afternoon wore on, Hinata had shifted closer to him, taking comfort in the warmth of his body.
She watched him carefully hang the decorations, in awe at how dedicated he was to making their tree perfect.
She leaned her head on his shoulder, smiling warmly at the love she felt between them.
She always imagined decorating a tree with her partner when she was younger and this year was the first time she had gotten to experience it.
He turned to her, smiling down at her beautiful face and kind smile.
He kissed her then, hands tangling into her long hair, tilting her head to gain better access to her mouth.
He could taste the peppermint flavour of the candy canes on her lips, enjoying the minty taste as he explored her mouth further.
Her own arms wrapped around his neck, pulling herself into his lap, one hand moving to remove the tie from his hair, letting it loosely fall around his head.
He hummed against her mouth as her hands began gently massaging the back of his head, treasuring the feeling of her soft hands in his hair.
He allowed himself to be pushed backwards onto the warm floor, having her crawl on top of him, her mouth leaving his to trail down his neck, her hands gently moving from the back of his head to trail down his side and brush under his shirt.
He shivered slightly at the cold brush of her fingertips against his sensitive skin but relished the warmth of her mouth against his neck.
She giggled slightly against his throat as she felt him quiver under her fingers, removing her hand from under his jumper, to move slowly over the sides of his trouser legs.
As her hands traced over his clothed hips, she felt something in his pocket, something hard and slender.
She pulled away the, smiling mischievously down at her lover beneath her.
"Itachi," Hinata laughed, enjoying the was his curious eyes stared up at her. She then gently removed the object from his pocket, dangling her find in front of his face, "you know those candy canes are for the tree?"
