Kiss and Tell
γζ₯γ
It's gentle.
She feels his hands steadying her face, caressing her cheek like a breeze as he leans in towards her. His breath is close and then gone, his lips pressing against hers as he brushes away few tears that start to escape. It's comforting like a warm day on her skin, comforting and making the her feelings settle down as quickly as they rise.
It's scary.
A terrifying tenderness he gives to her without question. Why? Don't you know what I've done? How much blood is on her hands? She wants to say but his lips prevent her from doing so as he leans in. Her hands wrap around his wrists to ask him to stop treating her kindly but they persist.
Finally the King pulls away with his gentle and tender smile, one that threatens to have her resolve crumble under it. Understanding, empathetic and forgiving--it makes her heart stop at how kind he was being. He comes closer again and she feels him kiss her again, her heart starting to beat again at it.
She caves, softly replying to his tenderness with her own. Just to chase the feeling that he always gives her. Hope.
