JessLeto + grabbing hold of your lover’s collar, begging them to kiss you
Early-era, PG-ish, also on ao3.
Jessica is in a mood.
Scratch that. Jessica is bored, and slightly drunk because there was really nothing else to do, because formal dinners are usually more fun for her paranoia and-
Normally, in this state, she would retreat down to the other end of the hallway because she doesn’t trust herself with lowered inhibitions. Normally, she would be the better person. Normally…
Hell with normal, she thinks, deciding that what she wants is more interesting.
She’s been here two years, long enough to have routines, long enough to know that pretty dresses are motivation for her lover – unnecessary, perhaps, his attraction to her is deeper than that, but pretty dresses help. And he likes when she’s assertive, that’s weird, she’s starting to figure out she has an actual personality and it is not what she thought and-
There really was nothing to do but sip bitter wine and try to make eye contact from an unfortunate angle. No projects for her. No useful eavesdropping. Nothing to keep her out of trouble.
She’s been spending occasional nights in her partner’s spaces without anything intimate happening, not often yet but starting to be, and there is part of her that does not hate how easily she has been domesticated, and-
Door closed, desire up, she knows what she is and what she wants and she is so many emotions right now and lust is apparently a fun one and-
She gets her hands on his jacket collar, gets his attention, gets real close and she likes how similar in size they are and-
“Is this… you?”
Oh, damn him.
Jessica knows, in the back of her mind, that she should be thankful to have been placed with a cautious and respectful man. Nothing has happened between them that she did not on some level want, either for other purposes or more often lately just for the pleasure of it, and-
“Are you going to kiss me or not?”
She knows she’s a vision too, pale blue silks like moonlight in the dim-lit bedroom, everything here is so cold and she fits right in, lip swollen from biting it too much too public, she wants everything, she wants-
“Is that a good idea right now?”
She’s reminded of their early encounters, of how he treated her like a flytrap plant, easy to look at but dangerous, and how much progress they’ve made in such short time but still-
She’s impatient, and she kisses him anyways, and he lets her. Perfect.
“Did that taste like a good idea?” she murmurs, so close too close.
“You’re not…”
“It doesn’t seem like you’re saying no.”
“What do you want?”
She is really too young for these problems, she thinks. Uncertain partner, uncertain situation, she isn’t sure-
“You,” she breathes.
“I am yours.”
She takes another kiss, and his hands get up in her hair this time and she likes how tactile he is, always little patterns anywhere he can touch, needing this, needing her, needing-
“You won’t lay me down,” she senses.
“You’re in no state for it. I’m not certain I am either.”
“Can I at least stay?”
She’s become familiar with how he reacts to her, the subtle hybrid emotions she provokes. She likes this one most, affection and protection and just the slightest-
“I doubt I could stop you even if I wanted to try.”
“You could. You could tell me to get gone and I would-“
“Who could ever do that to you?”
Someday, Jessica thinks, someday she will be asked to account for what she has done with her placement and she will have to say with blank eyes that she did nothing intentional. She has merely responded to what has been offered to her, and look where she is now, look what she may yet-
“At least help me undress? I’m not sure I COULD undo-“
“Of course.”
