Unchanged. Would you like to come see? It would certainly be better for your presence.

[rockypath]

Thought you'd never ask. ;)

I'll be right over, just finishing up at work.

[understood]

Have you eaten?

[rockypath]

I had a late lunch, but yeah. I could eat.

[It's rare that she'd turn down food in any case.]

[understood]

We've got chicken cacciatore, if that's alright.

[rockypath]

More than alright.
I'm not that picky.
Mostly just wanted to see you.

[understood]

I'm looking forward to seeing you, too.

[It takes a little bit of time for her to get there, as she's coming from the Down but she gets there as quickly as she can. She's not wearing the bikini in the picture, unfortunately, as it would have been fun to watch him sputter in person, but instead her usual attire-- tight jeans and a low-cut tank top.

She gives the door a knock and waits.]

[understood]

[ Fraser opens the door almost instantly, stepping aside and holding it for her like a doorman. ]

Faith, welcome.

[rockypath]

Were you just waiting there by the door?

[She teases with how quickly the door had swung open and he appeared to greet her. Faith quickly steps inside and the moment the door closes she'll tug him into a forceful kiss.]

[understood]

Yes. I didn't want to— [ Oh. He's cut off by the kiss, and pulls her into his arms to reciprocate. ]

[rockypath]

[It takes a minute before Faith lets them come back up for air, as her mouth attacks his further when he starts to reciprocate. Finally, she does relent peering up at him with a cheeky grin.]

You didn't want to what?

[understood]

... oh. To keep you waiting on the doorstep.

[ He mumbles it a bit bashfully, now with a dopey smile on his face. ]

[rockypath]

Ah. Well, if you had kept me waiting too long I might have broken down the door.

[She tugs playfully at his shirt from her spot pressed up against him. Faith hated that she had to wait until they were in the privacy of his home to show affection like this. So when she had the opportunity she lept at it.]

So you avoid the latest craziness? No getting stuck to anyone? Switching bodies? [Faith made a face at that.] I got stuck as Buffy for a few days. Kind laid low during all that.

[With her and Buffy's history with body swapping it was all kind of awkward.]

[understood]

I was able to avoid it, thankfully.

[ Wow, though. He winces when she describes that, immediately recognizing just how fucking awkward that is. He's keeping an arm around her and guiding them towards the couch as they talk. ]

... were you able to talk to her at all?

[rockypath]

A little. [She walks with him, leaning into him until they settle on the couch and she curls up right beside him, curling her feet underneath her.] She didn't try and punch my teeth in either... so I don't know, maybe we can be okay again.

[It wouldn't be the same, of course. It couldn't be.]

[understood]

[ Fraser tugs her close enough that she can lean kind of half on his lap. ]

That's encouraging. Especially under the circumstances.

[rockypath]

[She sinks into him at his encouragement, comforted by his warmth.]

Yeah. I kind of expected she wouldn't want anything to do with me. Had kind of resigned myself to that. And luckily I have people here. So I wouldn't feel alone when that happened. Like you. [She smiles up at him giving him a playful boop on the nose.]

[understood]

[ He catches her hand and kisses her fingers. ]

I'm glad.

[rockypath]

[Her eyes grow darker with each kiss of her fingers, lips parting suggestively as she watches.]

I know you said something about dinner... but we could always skip right to dessert?

[understood]

[ He looks up at her, eager, voice low. ]

Oh, yes.

[ There's a slight pause. ]

—er, by "dessert" you do mean...?

[rockypath]

I mean... [Faith leans in, pulling her hand away from his lips, her own brushing close, whispering against them.]

I want you to fuck me, Ben.

[understood]

[ That's what he was asking, and upon receiving confirmation, he simply sweeps her up into his arms and heads upstairs to the unoccupied guest room. He's tongue-tied and blushing, but his movements are sure and steady. ]

[rockypath]

[Faith lets out a little shocked laughter and Benton pulls her up into his arms, but can't deny that it does feel nice to be carried. It's actually pretty hot actually. As he goes up the stairs, Faith presses her lips over his flushed skin, even playfully biting him, dragging along his collarbone.

She leans closer before they make their way into the bedroom, whispering into his ear before capturing the lobe between teeth.]

You should carry me around more often. It's making me wet.

[understood]

[ He has to pause for a second to stand still and shudder at that, eyes closing involuntarily, before he keeps going towards the bedroom door. ]

I'll—absolutely keep that in mind.
