Beatrice stood just outside of the door of the condo and battled with herself internally.

This is a bad idea. Isn't it okay to keep some things to yourself, Beatrice? Can't you control your feet and the direction they take? No, not when they're being led by your heart, right? He's just going to tell you to leave. But at least then you can say you tried, isn't that true? If you try and nothing comes of it, you've lost nothing.

She'd rest her hand over her chest, feeling the sigh fill her frame and then escape ruggedly.

You've talked to him a hundred times. Stop being such a child.

With that, there would be a gentle rap to Gilgamesh's door.

If he was waiting for that blush to get darker, he'd be getting his wish just about now. She'd be on her way to radiating if she didn't do something. Another forkful of dessert found it's way into her mouth rather quickly. This gave her enough time to respond elegantly enough.

"I...I'm sure I could brew you the perfect cup of tea, then. And, if you want my honesty, I want to be as close as I can be to you. It may be sudden, but I want you to notice me; to see me romantically. I...I want to spend more time like this. With you and I together.

I...I could make you happy...if you let me."

This wasn't like him. Not at all. Why was he suddenly having these thoughts? That she looked so incredibly cute that he wanted to do something terrible to her? This is the same woman that has done nothing but irritate him since his arrival. Yet, these feelings... Her darker blush accompanied by those words didn't do much to help the situation. But it was far too late to stop himself now.

"You've got a bit of the snake on your face. Hold still and I'll get it for you."

Oh, it started out simple and innocently enough, didn't it? Just a hand cupping her cheek, wiping a bit of the dessert off the corner of her mouth. Of course, it didn't stop there. They were oh so very close now, and getting closer by the second. And then it happened. Their lips met, for how long was anyone's guess, but it was certainly long enough for it to register in her mind.

She was feeling a bit sheepish about her outburst. She hadn't meant to be so open so early. However, when he spoke it shook her out of it abruptly. She'd lean in a bit to allow him to wipe away her clumsy smudge of dessert, but his touch was much more gentle than she'd expected.

She hadn't gotten a word in before his lips were pressed to hers. Her eyes widened from the shock at first, but slowly lidded as the kiss deepened. The whole thing was spur of the moment and blissful and she was more than happy to return the sentiment. This kiss was so much different from the one he stole when they first met. This was warm and inviting. It might be too early to call this love, but his tenderness certainly made it a possibility.

How long had it been since he had actually enjoyed such a sensation? And the fact that she wasn't actually attempting to stop him only sent signals to his brain to push things even further. He took hold of her shoulders and pushed her back just enough to crawl over her small frame. His head inclined towards her neck where he would leave a trail of kisses.

...It was odd, he had to note, that the more kisses he left, the lighter his head felt. But he didn't really mind. It was surely just an effect of the wine, was it not?

This couldn't possibly be happening. She couldn't even have hoped for such a result. But here they were, kissing like lovers. As close as a heartbeat. God, his lips felt incredible against her skin, so skilled and warm. She was more than happy to obediently follow his lead and rest against the couch. She even found herself tilting her head to allow him even further access to her neck.

Offering him a soft sigh for his effort, her mind began to wander. Of course, such a thought was short lived as she suddenly drifted into blackness and her body went still.

What a time to pass out.

He was getting way too into this. It must have been ages since he's been this close to anyone in such a lewd way. And yet there was that extra added element of... love? Was it really love? He wasn't sure. Maybe the island was just fucking with him again. But he couldn't care less at the moment. He was just about to ask the all important question when he happened to notice she... kind of passed out.

"...What the hell? We haven't even started doing anything serious ye-"

And just then, his gaze happened to land directly on her steady, heaving, nearly unclothed chest. A couple of second later, he would join her in a state of unconsciousness.
