i never really have much to say in these things. less talk, more action — insert other clichés here, et cetera. go ahead. try me. we'll see what happens.
I think you'll find that I can be very persuasive, ( sara's quick to chirp back, chasing another kiss while he's still a breath away. when their lips part, it's with a small sigh, a lean of her forehead against his for a moment in a gesture that rides a thin border into affection, eyes still closed and fingers tightening into the fabric of his jacket.
these past few days have been a grim reminder of what it cost to defeat savage and the time lords and reclaim their destinies, knowing the time and place leonard was brought here from. sara hasn't been able to stop thinking back to that time the two of them were locked in the hull of the ship, hypothermia starting to creep over them, and he asked her what dying felt like, in the wake of their impending demise. lonely, she remembers she'd said.
now, the moment feels like a special kind of punch in the gut foreshadowing — their first and only kiss, a desperate attempt by sara to prevent him from feeling that same kind of terrifying loneliness that even someone as strong and as brave as she is felt when she died. she'd cared for him on that ship, she'd cared for him in the city she left behind. it's why each kiss feels as vitally important as the very first at the oculus.
the moment of affection only lasts for just that — a moment, though, before sara puts on a brave face and makes herself take a step back. there's no time for her sentiment right now; they've got important matters to attend to.
hands dropping to her sides and fingers curling around the handle of the bag at her wrist, sara all but saunters into leonard's bedroom like she owns the damn place, dropping her purchase at the foot of his bed so she can unlace her boots, pull each one off by the heel. assuming that he's followed her in, she glances over her shoulder, helpfully instructing mid-unbuttoning her jeans, ) You get it out of the box and all set up with your phone.
[ that little touch--the leaning of her forehead against his--shakes him more than anything else has. part of him revels in it. eyes fall shut and he takes that moment to breathe. basks in the fact that this is clearly more than just a flirtatious romp for her too, even if they're both trying to keep the mood light.
the moment is only the span of a few heartbeats, and then the small, smug smirk is back on leonard's face as he trails her into the bedroom. he rakes his gaze down her body as she saunters off, lingering on the line of her shoulders and the shape of her ass. the desire and sense of something like mischief that had been banked for that brief moment spring back into life. ]
Yes ma'am, [ he says with a quirked eyebrow as he picks up the bag. the app is incredibly user-friendly and it's the work of a moment to get things synced up and check to make sure they work. leonard takes one last glance at the instruction manual, flicks a setting on his phone, and presents the obscenely bright toy to sara. ] I'll let you figure out how you want this.
( sara's not averse to putting on a little show for leonard's sake — hell, for her own sake. she's always been accustomed to the feeling of being looked at and, under the right circumstances, kind of revels in it.
"yeah, i could tell by the way you were staring at my ass," seems to have come full circle with her and leonard as she unzips her black jeans and shimmies her way out of them as they cling to her legs, leaving her in her t-shirt and a simple pair of underwear. it only takes a step or two for her to close the distance between them again, sneak another lingering kiss as her fingers wrap around what's likely about to become her new best friend.
but then the toy is plucked right out of leonard's hand, and she climbs onto his bed, stacking pillows behind her so she can lay back against the headboard comfortably. just when sara looks like she might be ready though — she stops suddenly, an metaphorical light bulb metaphorically appearing over her head, and she draws the sheets over herself, leaving just a slim stripe of bare skin between where the sheet ends and her shirt begins. )
You've gotta earn the right to see. ( she may be relinquishing control over to leonard, but that doesn't mean that she doesn't still have a few tricks up her sleeve. enticement, as though the promise of pissing off his neighbors and being the one responsible for her "singing" wasn't enticement enough. before long, her hand, the blindingly pink device with it, dips beneath the sheet. ) Start slow.
[ this whole situation is a little ridiculous. but it's a good kind of ridiculous, the kind that has leonard actually grinning a little as sara hides part of herself beneath the sheets and gets ready. for lack of a better place to go, he perches on the foot of the bed. without looking away from her, he thumbs a switch on the app and the vibrator starts up a slow, light rumble. ]
Well, [ he says, drawing out the word, hand still holding the phone up. the toy responds to his voice and the slow way he drawls syllables, twisting words experimentally and observing out of the corner of his eye how to app and toy react. ] Someone is feeling a little demanding, aren't they?
[ leonard shifts, leaning back against the footboard. his gaze still hasn't left sara, and it won't anytime soon. ] Can't say I mind, though. The things you have to work for are always better in the end.
( leonard is, for all intents and purposes, a very good listener when he wants to be; the vibrator hums to life, slow and even-keeled, makes sara let out a long sigh as she presses the head against the fabric of her underwear, glides up and down slowly, relying on indirect contact to get her started.
his comment brings a pleased smirk to her lips, heavily lidded eyes peering at him down there at the foot of the bed. ) And lucky me, I won't have to work very hard at all.
( don't think she didn't notice the way the vibrator responds in time with his voice, though. leonard's always had a way with words, always seems to have the right thing to say, syllables dragged lazily and slowly in a way that could already make goosebumps chart a course up her arms, send a chill up her spine. this takes it to an entirely new level, delicious heat twisting in her stomach, persistent between her thighs.
sara's impatience is very real, despite how badly she wants to make him squirm just from the way he makes her squirm. beneath the sheet, she lifts her hips, draws her knees in towards her, and a moment later, there's a pair of black underwear being pulled out and dropped to the floor. the direct contact of the toy against her clit brings a soft whimper from her that she's quick to bite back, teeth catching her lower lip as her hips roll experimentally against the rounded head. )
— I've found that being demanding tends to get similar results, ( she can't help but quip, voice slightly strained through her breathing, mostly just wanting to keep leonard talking. )
[ sara's beautiful like this. he always knew she would be, but it's nice to see it somewhere other than in the depths of his imagination. reality, even a reality where it's very "look, don't touch" currently, is much, much better than fantasy. leonard doesn't look away from her, not even as she tosses her undergarments to the floor. he doesn't want to miss a moment. not when she's biting her lip and trying not to make noise.
but that won't do. he did say he'd get her to sing, didn't he?
a low laugh makes the vibrator rumble in time with the noise emanating from leonard's chest. ] Yeah? We'll have to do something with that. some day that's not today. [ some day when he's feeling a little more confident in his place with her. ] Maybe I'll let you pin me down and have your wicked way with me.
[ leonard lets the drawl come out in full force, trusting that the odd way of speaking will make for some interesting sensations for sara, and decides--fuck it. he might as well go all in. ]
Could sit on my face and let me get you off with my tongue. Stay there until my jaw's sore. I bet you taste sweet, pretty bird. Or maybe you'd rather be on top somewhere else. You'd look real good sitting on my cock, taking what you need and letting me come along for the ride.
Fuck — ( sara practically whines at the mere mention of him letting her have her way with him, thighs wrapped around him, slick as she grinds against his cock — and her hips follow suit, rolling against the toy like it is his cock, vibrating with the same intensity as that laughter slipping past his perfect lips. the sheet slips lower with the movement, reveals a line of skin, carved muscle and hipbones just below where her t-shirt rides up.
she can feel herself losing control way faster than she'd ever anticipated, and it might be frustrating if this didn't feel so damn good. maybe it's because she's missed this — missed him, that her resolve slips away so easily. all sara can hear is her heartbeat pounding in her ears, the crystal clear sound of his voice cutting through everything else, and that's all that matters.
utilizing his mouth for something other than witty quips and sarcastic remarks is also an appealing thought, as leonard indulges her and continues to press on with his hypothetical future scenarios. his tongue, lapping eagerly at her while rough hands grip her thighs — sinking down onto his cock and riding him until she decides she's had enough —
the thought makes her give into the toy fully, slides it inside of herself slowly, inhaling sharply as her body acclimates to it, vibrations rumbling deep inside of her, the rabbit head pressing against her clit just enough. sara's eyes shut and her back arches a little, free hand reaching back to grip the headboard behind her like a vice. )
Len — ( it sounds a little like a plea, wordlessly begging for him to keep going, 'cause the sensations have her more than a little tongue-tied. )
[ there's a part of him that regrets the way he set whole thing up. that strip of bared skin and the hint of what still hides behind the sheet is tantalizing. it makes leonard want to reach out and touch--but he can't. instead he sits, ignoring the growing hardness in his jeans, watching and wanting so badly he can almost taste it. ]
Given the right motivation, I might just hand you the reins. [ his voice goes a little raspy as he continues. ] Let you decide when you've had enough and I get to come.
[ leonard licks his lips and lets his gaze wander from the jut of her hipbones up and up until he can see every bit of pleasure writ in the arch of her body and the flush in her cheeks. the thread of the fantasy slips between his fingers, but he keeps talking anyway. lets whatever words come fall from his mouth without too much thought, just so he can keep the rhythm going. ]
Fuck, you look good, Sara. I could watch you like this for ages, all caught up in it. [ all because of him. and isn't that something? ] Move your hips for me a little. Show me how you like it.
( the fantasy gives way, inevitably, to desires more tangible in this precise moment, though sara hardly notices as one fades into the other. all she can focus on is the feeling of the toy vibrating against her clit, the feeling of it buried deep inside of her, fingers curled, white-knuckled, around the edge of the headboard, unable to contain the moan that escapes her lips any longer.
she can hear how she's affected him already, can practically feel it, with the gravelly tone of his voice, the way he just — tells her what he wants her to do. her own sheer force of will prevents her from giving up her own control to just anyone, but with leonard ... it's easy to cede to him; she views him as her equal in all regards.
move your hips for me, he says. show me how you like it. sara can't do anything but oblige with requests like that, especially when she so desperately wishes it were him between her thighs. there's no use in playing coy anymore; her hand lets go of the headboard and she tugs the sheet hastily over her knees, thighs parting further. he's earned it.
free hand curling into the sheet beneath her in some weak attempt at maintaining a sense of stability, sara's hips move obediently, rocking against the vibrator, letting herself give into it and make noise freely, sing like the pretty bird he's convinced that she is. need knots below her belly button, hot and smoldering, begs for release. ) Len, ( sara gasps, hips arcing against the vibrator she holds onto like a vice. ) Leonard — I'm so — I need more —
[ out of the corner of his eye, leonard notices the waves on the app spike and fall with sara's words. it's good because, for half a moment after she pulls back the sheet, he's completely tongue-tied, mesmerized by the way she moves with and against the vibrator, the way it disappears into her slick folds.
she needs more and he wants nothing more than to give it to her. wants to press his mouth to her flesh. wants to replace the hand on the vibrator with his. wants to throw the toy across the room and sink into the heat of her until he can feel her falling to pieces around him. this isn't about him, though. ]
Come on, Sara, [ he murmurs, using the app to nudge the vibrations just a little bit higher. ] Let go and come for me, pretty bird.
( that little increase in intensity, the low murmur of his voice, velvety soft and her name sounding so devastatingly beautiful on his tongue —
it's all sara needs before she comes completely undone, crying out as she clenches around the toy, body tensing as wave after wave of pleasure, hot as fire, rolls over her body, leaves her thighs trembling, her eyes squeezed shut and head tipped back against the pillows as she rides out her orgasm.
she stills for a moment, legs stretching out in front of her, letting out a deep breath as her eyes flutter back open. every nerve ending practically tingles — hell, she feels a little like she's in the clouds, except when her gaze sweeps across the foot of the bed and lands on leonard through heavy lids, she's reminded of exactly where they are, exactly what they're doing.
her tongue swipes out to wet her lower lip and — there's still a toy nestled between her thighs, vibrations a low, persistent rumble in the aftermath, and she's all too aware of the way it presses against her walls, all but invites her to indulge in more. so maybe she'll do just that; she's nothing if not determined as hell, after all. her fingers curl more firmly around the base of the vibrator again and, wordlessly, eyes closing again, she draws it out and slips it back in again, starting to set a lazy pace this time around. it's a little selfish, maybe, but she can tell just by the sound of his voice that he doesn't mind the view very much. )
[ it's every bit as enrapturing as he thought it would be, and leonard's sharp gaze doesn't miss a moment. he watches as she shudders and arches, burning the image into his brain. every line of her body, every sound, every microexpression on her face he commits to memory.
and in the afterglow, he smiles softly at her. part of leonard fully expects this to be the part where he kisses her an excused himself for a moment and then--maybe they go to dinner or something, the main event over and done with. but sara clearly has other plans. the motion of her hand draws his gaze back between her thighs and leonard--
he laughs. ] Feeling greedy are we? [ he should've remembered, no plan survives first contact with the enemy.
the plan is thrown out the window. leonard shifts, casually adjusting himself as he moves to try an alleviate some of the pressure his jeans are putting on his cock, and leans over sara, one hand planted on the mattress next to her head. he kisses her in that same inexorably slow way he did when they first entered his apartment, the slow slide of lips and tongue the only contact between them. and then... then, he pulls away. ]
Me too. [ he smirks. ] But I'd rather make you wait than have things escalate right now. [ anticipation makes things so much better in the end. ]
( greedy? yes, absolutely, and sara's okay with that. there's something about having an audience that makes her even more keyed up — it's the feeling of knowing that this leonard has never seen her like this, the way that his already intense gaze sweeps over every single inch of her.
her hand stills, though, the vibration steady and mellow inside of her, when she feels the bed shift and then senses his presence above her. his lips meet hers with a pleased hum, the rise and fall of her chest slowing to a consistent pace as she continues to come down from that beautiful high, the languid, savoring way he kisses her a very welcome addition to all this.
except then he pulls back, and the sheer absence of him is enough to make her eyes blink open to see that telltale smirk of his — it's a smirk she's come to love and loathe in equal measure. ) Yeah? ( there's the barest hint of laughter in her voice. ) Haven't we both done our fair share of waiting, Leonard?
