Flint & Scout

[empereurs]

Flint gets up too, because he doesn't want to let go of Scout's hand yet. It's only a few steps to Flint's door, and even fewer seconds left in Scout's company. It's ridiculous to pained over it. They'll see each other tomorrow morning.

"Me too. When I'm with you..." He's said—wrote—something along these lines before, and Flint falters for a second, not wanting to repeat himself. "Things feel better." He tugs on Scout's hand, stopping him for a second. "You should text me too. Even if I'm asleep... I'll see it in the morning."

The moment Flint is pulling on his hand, Scout stops and turns to fully face him, though his eyes don't remain on him for long. The other boy's words have him feeling a little embarrassed, even if they're not new, so his glance flits downward. "I don't want to bother you," he responds with a little laugh, looking back to Flint after a pause. "But alright, I will."

And once again, he finds himself at a standstill, even though they're finally on their feet, finally a few paces closer to Flint's bedroom door. Maybe they'll just never get to bed. That doesn't sound as bad as it should. After a moment he leans in to give Flint a light kiss, telling himself it's just to get them moving again.

It's a little kiss, barely more than a touch, but as soon as Scout begins to pull to away, Flint's other hand comes up and cups the back of Scout's neck. Flint smiles and takes a step forward, so he can kiss Scout again, firm and sweet.

Everyone's in their rooms, or blowing off curfew elsewhere. It's still risky—someone could open their door at any moment—but right at this moment, Flint doesn't care. If Scout doesn't stop him, he won't.

Scout knew better than to give Flint a kiss, even such a small one, with how they've been lately. This is what the other boy had meant when he called this dangerous - sense isn't really something they excel at when together.

In an attempt to exercise some restraint, there's a fleeting moment where he considers pulling back, considers saying to Flint that he must be exhausted, that he should really get to sleep. In the end, though, there's no real harm in this besides being a little extra tired tomorrow, right? So why fight it? Scout presses into the kiss, his arms going to loop around Flint.
