He feels like home.
Under the dim light, he reaches for him – home and heart and all things warm and comforting. His fingers glide across soft skin, catching on the fabric of a sleeve and collar before he feels Lumière lean into his hold. For a moment, he wonders if his hands are too rough, or his touch too gentle; if bringing him here, to the cramped confines of the tower he’d called his haven as a child, was taking whatever they had between them a step too far. But Lumière’s hands find his and the corners of his lips curve into that small, sweet smile that haunts Auben’s dreams, and so his mind goes blank. “I adore you,” he lets slip, pressing a kiss against the other man’s neck, then another, and another. Lumière pauses for a moment, reaching up to lace his fingers through Auben’s hair with a giggle that sends his heart thundering against his chest. He feels silly. He feels swept up in the storm of whatever it is they share, intoxicated by this man’s everything. His hands. His smile. His eyes.
Oh, Auben thinks, heart in his ears as he reaches up and pulls Lumière closer. Oh, how he has fallen.
End to end, beginning to beginning, he guides his lips across each freckle, reveling in Lumière’s soft warmth – and, he muses, if these are anything like the stars his beloved speaks so fondly of, then he would dedicate an eternity to mapping the constellations.
falling
Lumière’s lips brush against his cheek and something within Auben stutters, if only just for a breath – a staccato thrumming against his chest stifled only by the sudden flood of every and no thought at once. He thinks he raises his palm to his face, chasing after the plush sensation; but when his senses return to him, Lumière has already retreated within the Inn and Auben feels like a fool, heat pooling around his neck and face for reasons other than the desert sun.
