[The moment he hears Billy's footsteps come towards the living room, Teddy pokes Misty's back legs a few times until she takes the hint and gets out of his lap, though not before digging her nails in pointedly. He raises an eyebrow after her, then grabs his bag and slings it onto his back as he stands. By the time Billy's done speaking, Teddy's up and ready to go, and... frowning just slightly as he eyes the amount the Billy's carrying.]

All right... sure you got all that?

[There are advantages to having a super strong boyfriend and all, and they are going to be walking pretty far...]

[It's tempting, to hear Teddy's offer, but after a moment's consideration Billy just nods again.]

It's okay, they're not that heavy.

[They might become heavy later, when he's tired, but he'll cross that road when he comes to it, and he's determined to bear this burden solo. Just because his boyfriend has super strength doesn't mean he gets to take advantage of it selfishly. It's his own fault he couldn't make a decision about which ones to bring.

Maybe he just doesn't want to give himself an excuse to come crawling back here before he's ready.]

I've never given anyone my powers before... what if I mess it up?

Then we'll try again. [He clasps Billy's shoulder again.] I trust you, little brother. Even when you don't trust yourself.

[Loki: King of Not Fighting Fair.]

[Teddy lets out a hum as he does just that - He lowers his head to kiss along Billy's jawbone, then down a little further, enough to nip just above the scar on his neck. Since Billy got the scar, it was a bit of an adjustment to tease the area around his favorite nipping area rather than right on it, and even though Teddy hates the reason it happened, he hasn't minded the scar one bit; it's just a part of his boyfriend now, plain and simple.

And since Billy's so impatient, Teddy gets to work on removing his pants; he already undid them, so with Billy's help, it's no trouble at all to slide them down further. Taking them all the way off without cheating would mean getting away from Billy's neck, but he just can't bring himself to move back right away...]

[Billy groans softly at each kiss, his body arching eagerly, legs sliding to try and urge Teddy's pants further down with wriggling feet. His toes curl in the fabric to drag it off and expose those fine, muscular legs. He lets his hands stretch and curve over the bare skin of his fiancé's shoulders, slim fingers teasing and pulling gently to keep him close as Teddy reaches his neck. For a while after... well, everything, he'd been so afraid of being intimate, and even after they'd gotten themselves sorted out he'd been too sensitive to enjoy this kind of treatment, shying away from the touch the way he used to with his ears, or Teddy with his stomach.

But just like after the Cube, it had been something to work on together, something to overcome and endure. And that was before Teddy discovered the right spots to explore- above and below the damaged skin, the white space of broken nerves just creating a pleasant tension of surprise as to what direction the touch will come from, whether Teddy's mouth will be up or down next. It's so subtle that he hardly notices anymore, only enough to stubbornly push aside what had happened back then and enjoy it. And especially today, after Teddy's proposal... there's no room for bad memories, here. He won't let them in.]

Nn... Tee... get your feet loose, I want you- hah- on me...

[Something about those words just turns Teddy on further, and he lets out a quiet groan against Billy's neck before he pulls back to actually get out of his clothes - much as he enjoys this slow, shimmying out of clothes method, he's getting a little impatient, and it looks like Billy is too.]

Yeah - Yeah, hold on, just gotta...

[He slides his shoes off and tosses them gently to the side - he knows better than to kick them off, then leans back to slide his pants and underwear the rest of the way off.]

We're, uh, kind of at the end of the bed here, do you want to...?

[Their little wrestling match kind of messed up their initial positioning, so it really depends on if they want this absolutely perfect or, well... if they just don't care about positioning and want to keep going.]

[Billy blinks off his dazed expression, shivering as the cool air hits his naked skin as his eyes wander over Teddy's. It clicks that hey, yeah, they are kind of about to fall off, here...]

Um... yeah, lemme-

[He shimmies backwards a few feet, flopping back against the pillows with a quiet, satisfied sigh.]

Okay, much better. You did say you'd rather not do it on the floor, so...

[Admittedly engagement sex sounds a lot sexier when it doesn't involve rolling off the bed and breaking an arm or something.]

[By the time Billy gets to the pillows, Teddy's tossed his pants and underwear aside, and he has to take a moment to look up and down his fiancé's body, appreciative and loving and just marveling over how he can see this all his life, be able to press kisses against it or run his hand down it, treat it like the gift of trusting someone enough with this truly is.

And he moves forward to do just that, one hand sliding down Billy's waist and hip while the other holds him up, lips brushing against his shoulder as he rolls his own hips forward - Billy wanted Teddy on him, and that's what he'll get.]

I just don't think... the floor's special enough.

[That's exactly what he'd wanted, and now that he's finally receiving it he makes his delight known, arching his body up to press against Teddy's and sliding his hands up the blond's chest just as appreciatively. He seeks out all the pleasantly sensitive spots that he's discovered over the past couple of years, the movement of his fingers practised and refined to an art form only for Teddy.]

I think... wherever we do this, from now on, is going to be special. Whether it's in a bed or on the floor or against a wall or in some underground cave in the middle of nowhere- anywhere- it won't matter. This is what matters...

[He draws one hand back, stroking it through Teddy's hair, touching his cheek, the ring finger trailing cold metal over this skin.]

Just this. Just us. The rest is just... fanfare. Noise. Meaningless details. That's how I feel.

[Goddammit, Loki.]

Mm... just... promise to like. Hit me if something starts going haywire. I don't want to screw up again.

[His comment was a start-up to a joke, really, which he would've followed up with the floor having had its feelings hurt for not being special enough. But then Billy says that, and all thoughts of making it a joke are just... swept out of his head. The words, and Billy's touch, brings Teddy back to gazing down at his face and his eyes especially, leaning into the touch against his cheek, loving the contrast of warm skin and a band of cool metal.]

That's how I feel, too... [He leans in to press his forehead against Billy's, unable to keep the smile off his face.] I love you... God, I love you so much.

[Sex is awkward and funny and amazing, but most of all, it's deeply intimate to Teddy; sharing something like this with the person he loves, being completely vulnerable and trusting the other person... Billy's right; the location is just fanfare, meaningless details. It's them that counts, just moving with each other, touching, being. Sharing their deepest and most intimate parts of themselves with the person they intend to spend the rest of their life with.

... But he also can't help making a little quip as he opens his eyes slightly.]

So should I start looking for a cave after this?

You can trust in me, Billy. I've no desire for a repeat of any difficulties. Try not to work yourself into a...tizzy.

[Billy grins, helplessly amused at his dork of a fiancé- amused, and not particularly surprised by the quip.]

Mm... only if you find one with, like, moss or something.

[He can only imagine the grating their skin would receive if they were doing what they normally do in a cave. Teddy would heal quickly enough, but he'd likely be complaining for weeks afterwards.]

We can think up other places to have sex later, though. I like it right here at the moment.

[He tilts his head suddenly at that, wanting to kiss Teddy just then, needing it rather desperately. Fluff and gentle words of love are only half of what he's feeling right now, and the rest is pure and enthused passion.

[It's a sentiment Teddy completely agrees with, and he lets it be known by meeting Billy halfway and kissing his fiancé with all the passion he's feeling as well. Love and affection are well and good and just as much a part of sex between them, but he'd really, really like to get the ball moving.

When Teddy breaks the kiss, he starts to travel downward, first pressing several kisses against Billy's neck, then his collarbone, while one hand smears along his hip and thigh and strokes at a spot just behind his knee.]

We have the where... but what about the how? [The kisses travel further down, grazing against one of Billy's nipples before settling there, lips and breath brushing against it.] Do you want it slow or hard? Do you want me to make you scream, [and down again, teeth grazing against him as he keeps murmuring,] or do you want me to ride you until I'm moaning your name? [Once he's at Billy's abdomen, he lets his hand move up again, stroking against Billy's side.] Do you want something more gentle... or hard and fast...?

[God. God. Is Teddy trying to make him come just with words alone? Billy shivers, fingers and toes curling first in the fabric of their blankets, then - as he lifts his hands to press them against Teddy's head, and he slides a leg up to curl around the blond's - in soft hair and warm skin. Nails scraping, he encourages the pampering as best as he can without getting in the way of it, his breath catching softly with each stroke, and every arousing suggestion.]

...Nnnn... is "all of the above" an option...?

[That's way too much wonderful to choose between, bf.]

[Maybe that's exactly what Teddy's trying to do; how much would it boost his pride to know that he made Billy come just by talking to him? More seriously, though, Teddy smirks a little from that question, head leaning up into Billy's hand for a second before moving on.]

Well... [Finally, Teddy reaches the destination he'd been deliberately avoiding all this time - Billy's woefully neglected erection. He lets his lips trail from base to tip, then back down again from the side, answering quietly as he does so.] We've got all night. We can make it an option...

[And even if they get too tired, Teddy's pretty sure they're not going to venture out of the bedroom for a day or two anyway. They've got plenty of time.]

[Billy cries out quietly at the gentle grazing over sensitive nerves, his back arching, fingers tightening in Teddy's hair. He's really aching for it - for more - and Teddy's teasing touches is only making him feel it more emphatically with each passing second. Much more of this and he really will scream- and thank god Tommy's not around right now, because the soundproofing spell was gone weeks - months? - ago.

Their poor neighbours.]

Maybe... haaahh... start at the bottom... and work our way up...?

[He's not sure if he's suggesting an order or a position, honestly. All of the suggestions Teddy'd offered sounded great. Whether Teddy's pressing inside of him or riding him hard from above, his fiancé, his future husband- god. He could come just imagining it.]

Mm... gonna have to be more specific, Bee.

[There's a grin on his face as he raises his head again, and then down, to take the head of Billy's erection into his mouth and circle it with his tongue, then suck down further. It's all a game, really; Teddy's willing to do whatever Billy wants to do because, for sure, he certainly wants to do everything he suggested in no particular order. But it all depends on if Billy can actually spit the words out.]

[How can he possibly be more specific when Teddy's doing that? Coherency's gone, replaced by a gasp, followed swiftly by a long, tremulous moan. His hips shift, instinctively thrusting a little into Teddy's mouth, seeking more of that hot, wet warmth. He could certainly go for more of this, for starters, but if Teddy's expecting words out of him, he's in for a bit of a wait.]

...Tizzy? Is that the technical term for a magical freak-out?

[Whoever taught Loki that slang should be smacked.]

Yes, didn't you know? What do they teach you in schools these days?

[Heh heh heh.]

Not magic, that's for sure.

[He tries to imagine Raine using the word in a class and just... no. Really, no. It's weird.]

So when are you doing this?

Either tomorrow night or the next day. I have to prepare the distraction first.

Please, please don't give me a reason to regret this.

[So very seriously. He's trusting you, Loki.]
