[Hands run over him in a way that is both overwhelming and making him wish for more. The kiss grows more intense and Aether moans helplessly into it. There's more warmth between them, a kind of heat he's never felt before and the traveler welcomes it, just as much as he welcomes Heizou's weight against him. His own hands wander against his companion's back in random patterns as if just needing the touch itself and not thinking where he's touching.

Even when he pulls away and embarrassment hits him, he still finds himself glad for the other's closeness. Heizou's words make him look up at his companion. Both their faces are bright red and it's like yet another proof that they feel just the same.

But then... it's Heizou who apologizes and Aether's eyes widen. He shakes his head, then shifts his hands, gently catching his partner's face, thumbs softly smoothing the skin.]

You have nothing to apologize for... We both got carried away. [He smiles.] And I don't regret that. You mean so much to me and you're... the only person I would want to be like this with.

[He leans up, pressing his forehead to Heizou's for a moment in an affectionate way, before dropping onto the pillows. His cheeks are still bright red. Maybe even more, when his gaze shifts to the door.]

But... maybe if we want to continue we should at least lock the door.
