Thread: Homestuck: The Trickster and the Thief [Ahren and Resident Homestuck]

RE Homestuck The Trickster and the Thief Vriska Get a matesprit...? Youre prepared for the kiss now, so the warm feeling that washes over you when your lips meet Johns doesnt come as much of a surprise as it did the first time. But it still feels like you are floating. At some point during the next few seconds you feel his hand detach from yours and come to rest on the back of your head, combing through your hair a little. Its a pleasant feeling. Your arms come up to wrap loosely around his neck to allow you to follow the gentle urge of the hand in your hair deeper into the kiss. Then suddenly you feel his tongue brush yours lightly, sending a shiver down your spine. You could not possibly imagine a more perfect moment. After a few moments you pull away again, looking up at him with an expression you know looks ridiculously happy. You notice a strange change in his voice when he speaks again, but then again, youre fairly sure your voice also doesnt sound like it normally does right now. You allow your forehead to rest comfortably on his, closing your eyes again for several seconds. Youre close enough by now to be breathing the same air, and it feels completely right. Yes, you decide, you would think he is your matesprit now. You feel a sharp twinge deep in your chest when he asks you if you were just messing with him tonight. Even his voice sounds less happy than it was a few seconds ago. You know you shouldnt surprised that he at least considered the possibility that you were, but you cant help feeling at least a little hurt. Its your own fault, you guess. With your record, you wouldnt be surprised if he suspects something. The disappointment subsides somewhat a moment later when your eyes meet his again. You cant seem to bring yourself to look away, even when you feel a light kiss on the back of your hand. You swear your face must be a deep cerulean blue by now, despite your efforts to stay unflustered. But without knowing it, John somehow voices the jumbled thoughts that are running through your head, seemingly without a problem. You are supposed to be the smooth one, and here he is taking your chaotic mind and organizing it into a few simple sentences, you think with slight amusement. As you look into his eyes you see some kind of absolute honesty, almost like its just plain impossible to hide a falsehood behind those eyes. What hes saying sounds like a extreme, but something in his eyes tells you that he actually isnt kidding. You wonder how its possible for anyone to feel that way about you, especially after all the things youve done. You dont mind his other plan one bit though. You find yourself smiling into a third kiss as the arm around your waist tightens to hold you firmly but comfortably. This might just be the most comfortable position you've ever found yourself in. You enjoy the kiss for a good few seconds before reluctantly drawing back again to look into those captivating bright blue eyes. You arent entirely sure what you could say that would convince him of what you were feeling, but you can at least give it your best shot. I wasnt messing with you, John, you murmur softly, running your fingers through his short black hair. I feel something for you that I cant imagine to be anything other than what Id feel for a matesprit. So I guess we are matesprits now.... Your head comes down to rest on his shoulder, fitting easily into the hollow between his shoulder and neck. Id get it if you thought I was just kidding with everything thats happened tonight, but I wasnt. I really do care for you. You know it might take a while to convince him that youre serious, and even longer to convince everyone else of the same, but youre willing to walk down that road if it means John will be with you.
