Not that boring. [ He'd shrug if he could, but instead, he slides his hand up her side and plays with some of her hair. ] If I cared, I wouldn't have let you come over.
I didn't exactly give you a choice. [ but she's smiling a quiet smile, and she's making a little eye contact despite their proximity. ] But point taken.
Maybe, but it's not like I couldn't toss you out if I wanted to. [ Just another tease, and he tilts his head a little in an effort to get her to look him in the eye better. ] You sure you don't wanna talk about it?
[ Nope. He doesn't mind at all considering he only looks at her once before leaning in close enough to press his lips to the corner of her mouth. It's a soft thing, not really meaning much by it except for the silent okay i get it he doesn't think is actually necessary to say right now. ]
[ for a second she isn't gonna let him pull back, shifting her head to kiss him more directly... but that only does last for a second, because then she's breaking it and dropping her forehead to his and exhaling a sort of pathetic self-depreciating laugh through her nose. ]
Space is stupid, [ she decides, just barely above a whisper. this whole stupid mess is stupid. here just a month ago back in boston, she thought she was finally over the hill, thought that everything was finally done being ridiculous and convoluted, but nope. ]
[ The gentleness of it is pretty nice, and when she leans her forehead against his, Bells licks at his bottom lip and considers just kissing her again. But that's probably not why she really came here, so he continues to twist his fingers through her hair and gives a slight hum of agreement at that. ]
Pretty damn stupid. [ Bells lightly bumps their noses together. ] Sometimes it's better though. You'll get used to it.
[ and for a second, she just lets their mutual opinions hang in the little bit of air between them, her eyes closed but the forehead-to-forehead contact maintained. then: ]
It's a little better right now. [ by 'right now' she means 'in this proximity', because realistically, the situation still blows. ]
[ Maybe he laughs a little bit at that, wondering just how it could really be that much better. She doesn't know him, doesn't know the problems he'll cause if she gets too close. But that's... probably something he should think about some other time. ]
Yeah, I guess it so. [ And he slides his hand down her side to curl it around her waist. ] It kinda sucks, but I'd have never met all these people I'm glad I know if I hadn't come here.
