He’d pulled back the first time, just barely keeping himself out of her range as if to test the waters—or maybe just looking to tease the girl, probably both if Valeria had to venture a guess. Still she didn’t let it deter her from the goal, the little game of cat and mouse they were playing coaxing out the blonde’s competitive nature and giving her the confidence to be self-assertive in her approach.
She couldn’t keep the smile that pulled at the edges of her lips away when the girl finally managed to catch Ari’s own, the kiss starting slow and steady at first. There was a faint trace of hesitation when she decided to look for more, her tongue softly brushing against the man’s upper lip questioningly, before Valeria allowed herself to dive deeper and more passionately into their kiss when the man responded in kind.
They’d eventually break away for a moment, the need to catch her breath eventually outweighing her desire to continue kissing the man, though her gaze never strayed away from his eyes. There was a crafty look in her eyes even as the impish smirk on her lips only seemed to widen as the blonde caught his teasing words.
"Of course~ There’s a lot of things that I want," Far too many, if Valeria was honest with herself, including a few that the blonde knew were simply out of reach or possibility."For starters, I want your lips..."
Her words were barely above a whisper as she leaned in closer to his ear, the proximity shared by them ensuring her words would reach him with little effort. She didn’t linger long however, aware by now of the man’s tendency to go for her neck, turning her head before planting soft kisses against his skin. With each one she moved closer and closer to his lips, the latest kiss pressed just at the corner of Ari’s mouth, before her eyes caught his gaze just as her lips hovered mere millimeters away from his own.
A playful smirk tugged at the corners of her mouth before Valeria closed the distance. Her teeth carefully trapped Ari’s bottom lip between them, gently suckling and nibbling, before she pulled back softly—with some luck perhaps she’d get the man to follow her back into a comfortable position, one where her hands weren’t stuck on keeping her body from fighting the laws of gravity.
