[ So... it's okay. He'll get used to it He'll force himself if he has to, because he wants to be as intimate as possible with Emerald. He doesn't want to deny her of anything. And maybe he'll feel good about it too, once he's gotten over the whole neck thing. ]
[ No biting. No sucking. Nothing rough or painful in the slightest. She trails get lips down from his ear and back down his neck again, slowly pressing soft kisses to his skin. They can try a little at a time just to prove that it's okay. ]
[ It's still nerve-wracking, even if he said it was okay. It definitely won't go away immediately, but he at least tries not to tense up so much when Emerald kisses him on the neck again. As if to tell her he seems to be doing fine, he draws slow circles on her waist with his thumbs. Every so often, his breath hitches, but he's okay. ]
[ She knows it won't go away right away. God knows she has a million things she wishes she could stop feeling just because she willed it so, but there are some things she knows get a little easier with practice.
She only goes for a few moments, then pulls back to check on him. ]
[ She settles down a little more comfortably in his lap, looking at him for a moment. He's obviously tense. She could feel it in his muscles, if not see it on his face. So she shares. ]
I have all kinds of things like that. I know it's okay logically but sometimes things just stick with you whether you want them to or not. Don't feel like you have to be okay just because I want you to.
[ He leans forward so he can rest his forehead on hers. ]
I don't want to be uncomfortable with you.
[ They've known each other for over a year. He's seen her demons, she's seen his. Akashi doesn't ever want to be uncomfortable with her, because who else can be comfortable with if not her? ]
Me neither. We can work at it. Back in Verens, I was barely having nightmares anymore thanks to you, so it's not impossible.
[ And then, you know, she went back and it got worse but that's how the world works. She'll just have to make sure he doesn't get bit by anyone else. ]
[ He truly does. He's glad Emerald is here with her. So, without further ado, because he did ask her to kiss him, he cups her cheek so he can be the one to kiss her on the lips. She can kiss his neck another time. He wants this more. ]
[ She moves her hand up to hold his head near his neck at the bottom of his ear, threading her fingers into red locks as he kisses her, kissing him back. She mumbles something that sounds like 'love you too' against his lips, but it's hard to tell since she's not pulling back from the kiss to say it .]
[ She said she'll make out with him, so it would be weird if she pulled away. Besides, he doesn't want her to be an inch apart from him right now, anyway. It works out. Kissing her definitely relaxes him, so this is helping him in so many ways compared to how he was earlier. He's smiling against her when he kisses her- slow and soft and romantic. They don't have to get wild or anything now. He's fine with slow kisses because they're with her. ]
[ She ends up resting her hands on either of his sides and closing her eyes. SHe's just going to kiss him until he complains that he needs to breathe because it's time to cling to him. She almost lost him, she doesn't want to let him go. ]
[ They would be surrounded by red lights right now if they were still in Empatheias. Emerald wouldn't be able to hear anything but Akashi at this time, too. Akashi does pull away for a split second because he remembers he needs to breathe, but his lips are back on Emerald again as soon as he's inhaled some air. He doesn't plan on touching her or anything unless Emerald initiates it. The electrifying feeling he's getting just from kissing her is insane and so, so satisfying.
Who is he kidding? He pulls Emerald closer to him because he can't get enough of her. ]
[ Emerald keeps kissing him. She doesn't intend on touching him right now, and once she finally seems to either get her fill, she rests her head on his shoulder to catch her breath, arms looped around his side.
She missed him too much, but she doesn't really want to do anything sexual right now. She just wants to hold onto him. This world may want physical things, but right now Emerald needs emotional care. ]
I missed you. I don't think you even realize how much... The second I remembered you, it was like my entire world had been ripped away.
[ She doesn't sound upset though. Her world is back now, and she doesn't intend on letting it go again. ]
[ Akashi actually needs a moment before properly responding. ]
It shouldn't have happened.
[ That they became separated. Apart from knowing how much Emerald needs him, he needs her, too. He doesn't want to tell Emerald just how upset he was when he couldn't find her here. He also doesn't say anything else that's happened between him and Mayuzumi for now. Right now, all he wants to do is give Emerald the attention she deserves. ]
But I'm here now. You don't have to miss me anymore.
[ He lifts his hand so he can stroke her hair. It's a calming and soothing gesture, because he can't really calm her down and comfort her with Dunamis anymore. ]
[ It's okay that he can't use dunamis right now. After all, he's here. Mayuzumi's here. The hand on her hair is more than enough. She closes her eyes to just quietly enjoy it for a moment. ]

No, I'm sorry. [ He takes a deep breath to steel himself. ] Try again. If I get used to you kissing me there, then maybe I won't be so scared.
