I get that sometimes too. [She scooches closer and puts her hand on top of his, adding the pressure of her thumb to his clit.] Like an outline left after an explosion.
[She settles her head in the crook of his neck and kisses his shoulder.] Did you like it?
[ Against his will, Hei makes a noise almost like a stutter, feeling the pressure of her thumb. Presses himself against her, hips rocking with a lazy sort of concentration. It's a moment before he absorbs her question; it seeps a warmth through him like the weight of her body sprawled close, the wet flutter of her lips at the point of his shoulder. Did you like it? These aren't questions people generally ask Hei; sex is about its utility, not its quality. Every encounter, good or bad, is chalked up as a learning experience, and any potential scars are consigned forcefully into the dark corners of memory. ]
[ His reply comes in the form of a kiss, short and sweet, almost contemplative. Drawing back, he looks into her eyes, the tangle of dark hair over the sunbrowned skin a startling contrast against their white and blue. ]
I liked that it's something I got to try with you.
[ Not earth-shattering raunch, but a quiet revelation. ]
[She has no idea how goofy her pleased smile looks. She hadn't been expecting anything like I loved it or That was the most incredible experience ever. Still, this is even better.
I got to try with you. The words are like a balm to a wound she didn't even realize hurt. She doesn't let herself think too much about the other women Hei might be sleeping with, yet they still lurk in the back of her mind, giving form to her unconscious fears & insecurities. This experience, at least, is completely hers alone.]
[ The gratitude in her eyes catches him by surprise. Heat-hazy as his mind is, it takes him a moment to realize what his words mean to her. He wishes he could explain, that physicality and intimacy are two very different things for him. He can get sex, of every flair and flavor, anywhere in the City. But none of those girls have ever made him feel as if he has dropped something or as if he is ready to drop to the floor himself. With Korra, there is a disorienting sense of nothing mattering in the slightest, no gravity or equilibrium. It's thrilling, and new, and something he wants to clutch to himself like a secret. But it's also something he periodically needs to step away from, so he can maintain objectivity and balance. He'd go insane otherwise. ]
[ He can't say that, though. So instead he leans in to give her a long speaking kiss, tongue curling past her lips, tremoring a gust of tenderness from his mouth to hers. His hips are still stirring minutely, tiny jerks against Korra's thumb. When he comes, it's a long, unbroken ripple; the pleasure paralyzing him and silencing his parted lips. All he can manage is a shivering exhale, his eyelids drooping shut. ]
[Korra hums with satisfaction when she feels him shiver against her. The last piece of the puzzle has fallen into place and she can now step back (metaphorically) and admire te picture. The way he's curled against against her, hands tangled together between his legs. The thin sheen of sweat on his breasts. The way their damp hair tangles together on the pillow. The different-yet-familiar smell of them. Unconsciously she matches the rhythm of her breath to his.]
[ In the dreamy landscape between drowsiness and alertness, Hei is aware that at the window, the sun's rays have intensified as if some responsible agency had just noticed they were shining at half-power. The umbra at the blinds is lit up like a lamp and beams ultraviolet rays fall onto him and Korra, pure heat with the rustle of breeze neatly filtered out. With his eyes half-shuttered, Hei lets his head roll against Korra's shoulder. Inhales deeply; he feels good. Boneless as warm taffy. No wonder Korra bounces around after a fuck with that brilliant smile on her face. No wonder Amber had liked to hum afterward, lips tucked wickedly at the corners as if there was a secret under her tongue. ]
[ In a few moments, he'll get up. Shower, dress, go through his katas and get breakfast started for the girls. A few moments. For now, he listens to Korra breathe, his gaze tracking the dustmotes glittering in the sunlight. Floating away to nowhere aimlessly. ]
