Room 406, Friday evening

[izzyalienqueen]

After all the goodbyes this week, Isabel's really not in the mood for common rooms where new faces have replaced old. Instead she pulled out the nice, generic, non-trademarked landscape puzzle she'd ordered a while ago and started to sort through the pieces.

Lowen & Navarro are playing on the stereo and the door is open.

[ooc: I'm around for about the next 45 minutes or so. Then I should be back at some point around 9:00 PST. Possibly earlier but I'm not sure what our plans our. I mean I'm in Vegas for Pete's sake. And I'm here!]

"Me too," he whispered, skimming his hands under her shirt and over her lower back.

"Feels nice," Isabel murmured, sliding her hands into Greg's hair.

"Likewise," he murmured, nibbling at her neck and letting his fingertips glide over her skin.

"Mmmmm" she sighed, her own hands sliding from his hair, down his back to rest on his waist.

"See, if my parents ever ask why I want to say, I'm going to have to come up with a reason other than this," he mumbled against her neck.

"I thought we talked about that," Isabel said with a quiet laugh. "You're staying for the academics and the baked goods." She paused and pulled back for a moment. "It's more then this though, isn't it?" she asked carefully. "More then just physical?"

"I love you," Greg said, more steadily and louder than he'd ever managed in the past. "It's more than physical."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"I love you to," she said, bringing one hand up to cup his cheek. "I love that you make me laugh. I love when you hold me and it makes everything feel better. I love that you worry about me. I love that I've never felt like this about anyone before." Isabel smiled softly. "It scares me sometimes."

Greg smiled a little, blushing. "Me too," he admitted. "And I'm right there with you on the whole 'this is new' part."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"So we'll have fun fumbling along together," Isabel said, brushing her hand over his cheek and feeling the warmth of his skin.

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

"Exactly," he said softly, tipping his face forward and stealing a kiss.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"It's a plan," she agreed, returning her hand to his waist where it slipped under the hem of his shirt. Lightly Isabel ran her nails up his spine.

Greg shivered a bit and returned his hands to her lower back, simply running his fingertips over her skin and marveling to himself how soft she felt.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel flattened her hands against his waist. "Stay?" she asked quietly.

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

"You'd have to shove me out yourself," Greg said in agreement.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Not happening," she promised. "Although we probably will want to move off the floor at some point." But not soon. Isabel was way too happy sitting in Greg's lap at the moment.

"That's true," Greg said, kissing the hollow of her throat, "but not yet."

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"Oh," Isabel shivered, tipping her head up. She ran her hands up his sides, pulling up his shirt as she did so.

Greg lifted his arms, allowing his shirt to go befor returning to kissing her neck.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Tossing the shirt aside, Isabel focused her attention on exploring newly exposed skin with her lips and hands.

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

Greg tugged lightly on the hem of her shirt as well, more than a little distracted by what Isabel was doing to him.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel leaned back and smiled before carefully undoing the first button.

Greg bit his lip, and leaned back a little to watch her.

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

"You can help you know," she pointed out, blushing just a little.

[like-a-sponge.livejournal.com]

"You seemed to have it under control," Greg murmured, starting on the bottom button.
