[ Alhaitham sighs out that comment, and for as much as it's not censure, it feels like it, just like it always does. Kaveh's cheeks flush an angry red, and his eyes dart sideways, an angry retort on his lips that is bitten off when those fingers press over his palm, lips against his in silent offering. That's always been the problem, hasn't it? Kaveh, who desires so badly not to be seen, is seen by Alhaitham, right down to the very heart of him.
It's what made him walk away from their friendship, it's what has him even now hold the younger man at arm's length every time he shows an inkling of care. It's always been the only way to protect himself—
And yet here he is, spread willingly under the other, unable to do anything but accept him... all of his own choice.
The kiss is a welcome distraction— it doesn't last anywhere near long enough, but with his arms connected to the headrail, there's not much he can do about it other than pout. It's a pout too that has more meanings than the one, because the scribe is being something of a tease, rubbing those two fingers against him in a way that has the blonde squirming, a stuttered out whine on his lips. ]
Isn't it obvious? [ he bites out, and he knows the answer is yes, knows Alhaitham knows and is teasing him anyway. ] Of course I'm ready.
