Christmas eve at the little workshop (open) - Creator's Workshop

He smiled at her. He still needed a few moments, to get his breathing back under control, to let himself come down from those waves of pleasure. He reached up with one hand, running it from her forehead down to the tip of her nose. Then he leaned up to kiss her, gently. "Thank you, Teddy. You make a wonderful little cock cozy." Maybe he just wanted to see her blush. Maybe he meant it. Hard to say... but he was grinning when he said it.

Blush? Oh, she blushed, hard. Her bright blue eyes widening in surprise as her lips parted, first without a sound as she stared at him and then...
"Medwyn!" she exclaimed, a slender hand hitting his chest out of frustration of not knowing what else to do between the blush and the utterly embarrassed smile now spreading across her lips. "Oh, my God, you're horrible!" though she didn't sound angry or upset, just.... oh my god!

He laughed softly, taking the hit to the chest because... he knew he deserved it. For that comment, he truly did. He was still laughing, though, as he leaned up and caught her lips in a slow and lingering kiss. It met his eyes, too, the way he kissed her, "There's no shame in being what you are, Teddy. Though I will apologize for the crass nature of the commentary."

Her lips met his with a soft moan, the smile still lingering as the kiss ended. Still very much embarrassed, still very much blushing. "You're still horrible" Teddy laughed softly. "Oh.. my... God" she hit him again, though it was playful and far from hard. Just... what else was she suppose to do!

She hit him again, which only served to make him laugh harder. He caught her hand, bringing it to his lips for a gentle kiss. He still looked amused, because really, that blush was such a beautiful sight to the ghoul. "I am," he agreed, then kissed her hand again. "How can I possibly make it up to you?"

She... didn't really have a good answer, she truly had no clever come back at all. He'd so utterly and completely thrown her off guard the toymaker, for once, was rendered speechless.

It showed too, in that way her lips would part and close as she struggled to think of something and just... utterly failing. Her eyes still locked on him, still with cheeks that were blushed red with warmth.
She really needed to learn and control that... it couldn't be that night though.

"You can go clean yourself up" she chuckled after an embarrassing moment of awkward silence brought on by her complete mind blank. "And join me on the sofa to watch Nightmare Before Christmas. It's tradition" hers anyways and him going to the bathroom for a few minutes might let her blush fade.

Evil evil man.

He continued to laugh, though, and leaned up to brush a kiss over her lips. Then he sat up, fully sat up, as he wrapped one arm around her. "Sounds like fun, actually. I love that movie." He kissed her again, brushing a hand over her hair. "In all reality... thank you, Teddy."

She leaned into his touch without hesitation even if she still hadn't been able to shake the embarrassed blush. Gentle lips returning the kiss with a soft sigh as she brushed the back of her fingers slowly across his cheek.
"I enjoy making you feel good..." she admitted with a gentle smile, brushing her lips across his again. "Thank you for trusting me.."

He trapped her chin with his thumb and forefinger, looking her in the eye. He smiled again, leaning close to kiss her. "You're welcome. Now, where is the bathroom, so I can clean up?"

She nodded her head slightly though not so much as to move away from his touch. Bright blue eyes lingering on his when he spoke.
"About six steps to your right" she smiled. Really, small place. The bathroom door was directly to the right when you stepped into the apartment.

He grinned as he rose off of the bed. With an affectionate gesture of running his hands through her hair, he wordlessly went to find the bathroom. There, he shut the door, and moments later, the sound of running water could be heard.

For a few moments she just sat there, watching the door as she caught her right thumb between her teeth with a smile.

Was it dangerous to say she could get used to this? To having him around, to being touched, to being... She bit her thumb again. To being wanted...

She quickly pushed the thoughts away and pushed off the bed, going by the kitchen to make him a new cup of coffee and to move both the coffee and the cookies and sweets to the sofa table before popping the blue ray in the PS3 and getting the movie ready.
Last thing to be brought over was a soft blanket that she curled up on the sofa with while waiting for him.

Really, it didn't matter if it was dangerous to take this chance. It was still the best Christmas to her memory and would continue to be so no matter what lay down the path they were taking.

When he emerged from the bathroom, he was still nude. He gave no thought to modesty, not with her, with was both a good and a bad thing. He made his way over to the sofa where she waited, coming up behind her and wrapping his arms around her shoulders from behind. Just a warm hug from him, leaning down to kiss her cheek. It was when he came back around to sit next to her that she could see what she had felt before, on his back. He sat down next to her, though, holding out his arms in case she wanted to sit in his lap or even lean against him.

The hug and the kiss was welcomed, more than welcomed really as she leaned against him for a moment and gently touched her hand to one of the arms he'd slipped around her. That he was naked was really not an issue, wasn't as if he had anything to hide from her now was it?
Besides, Teddy smiled at him as she took one of his hands and gently sat down on his lap so she could rest in his arms, she'd thought ahead far enough to grab blanket which she draped over the two of them.

The movie was turned on as she leaned in to kiss him one more time, smiling up at him as she brushed a hand across his check before letting it trace down his neck and shoulder to come to rest on his chest.
She didn't ask him about the scars though, not in words anyways as her free arm moved around him to rest against his back, tracing those raised patches of skin with a gentle touch. If he wanted to tell her he could, if not, she wouldn't push.

It wasn't that he wouldn't tell her. It was that it was a story, and one that she would have to ask for if she wanted to know. He didn't seem to mind, though, his eyes catching hers as he returned her kiss with a gentle one of his own.

Once she had gotten settled, he tucked the blanket around them. Settling her comfortably against him, so he could rest comfortably against the sofa, pulling her in tight. He was, though, quiet throughout the movie.. but he was obviously enjoying that.

The gentle caress of her hand would linger throughout the movie, even if she didn't say much, finding that she was perfectly happy just getting to rest in his arms and share the moment with him. At most, she might move to hand him the coffee cup or anything else he might want, but beyond that her head remained resting on his shoulder throughout the entire movie.

First when the credits started rolling did she actually speak up, kind of, it was a low whisper really that brushed against the side of his neck with a gentle smile.
"I'm happy..." Teddy touched her lips to his neck in a gentle kiss before pulling back just enough to look up at him with a warm smile. The hand on his back still tracing his scars with a lover's touch, slowly and gently.

The touch of her hand was welcomed. Some time, during the movie, one of his arms went around her, to caress her back or her hip, his heat a gentle contrast to the fabric that covered her. He took the coffee, sipping slowly at it while he held her. Once or twice, she would have caught him singing along with the movie, to the songs that played. He turned to smile at her when the credits rolled, his lips brushing lightly against hers. "Do I make you happy? Or is it something else?"

Her eyes closed with a warm sigh as his lips touched hers.
"You do..." she whispered softly. The simple honest truth was that he truly made her so happy..

He laughed quietly, his hand coming up to slide through her hair. He hugged her with one arm around her, smiling at her as she answered him. "I'm glad. I hope that continues to remain true."

Oh, it felt so good when he did that. It stole a low moan from her before she bit down on her lower lip.
"I see no reason why it wouldn't" the blond smiled at him, tracing slow lazy circles with a manicured hand across his shoulder and chest. "You really do make me happy... I only hope I can keep you happy too"

He laughed, letting his fingers with hers. He smiled at her, the hand in her hair moving around to cup her cheek. "I must say, I'm pleasantly surprised by that."

She leaned into that touch as she always seemed to do, loving the feel of his hands on her skin.
"Why would you be surprised by that?" the blond smiled up at him. "I care about you... of course I want to make you happy..."

He smiled at her, truly smiled, a look that touched his eyes. "Not many do, Teddy." He frowned. "And some, I think, even are repulsed by my touch, let alone by any care I might have for them."

"Then they don't deserve it" she pulled the hand which fingers were linked with her own to her chest, holding it close without looking away from him. "For what it's worth, I'd never shrink away from your touch... or be anything but grateful that you care..." Teddy said softly.

He couldn't help but laugh quietly. "You really haven't had many good experiences, have you?"
