Two Truths and a Lie (c)

[Script]

Maggie let out a shuddering sigh, rolling onto her back and pulling him over her. She kissed him again, pouring every ounce of herself into that kiss. She wanted him to know how she felt, even if they never spoke again.

[Goblin]

He held her and kissed her like he never planned to stop, his hand moving down the side of her body, feeling the curve of her hip. This was all he wanted. And it was what he'd had. Why couldn't he have settled down with Maggie and abandoned his ghosts and his obsessions and his stupid plans?

But even now, he knew why, and that just made it worse.

[Script]

She arched under him, wanting to be closer to him, pressing her body against his. Her fingers went to the buttons of his shirt, undoing them deftly, wanting to touch him. She wanted to get lost in him.

[Goblin]

He followed her lead, shrugging his shirt aside and opening hers down to her chest, moving more slowly than usual in case she decided to back out. After what had happened, he sure as hell wouldn't blame her. He kissed her neck and nibbled it gently, inching her skirt up toward her thighs, putting love into every gesture so she wouldn't think about what Eastman had done to her.

[Script]

She didn't think about Eastman. She refused to. Sebastian was nothing like him, how Sebastian made her feel was entirely different. She lifted her hips, wanting to feel his touch, wanting to be overwhelmed by it so she didn't have to think about anything else -- especially what would happen after... There was no after, not now. Right now, it was just them.

[Goblin]

He eased her skirt over her hips and pushed it aside, letting it fall off the bed. Then he finished with the buttons on her blouse and slid that off too, leaving her almost naked and gorgeous beneath him. And then he was kissing every inch of her, sucking gently on her skin, on one of her nipples. His hand ran over her thigh, down her leg, back up to her butt, feeling the warmth and the curves of her body, marveling at her. "You're so beautiful," he whispered, nibbling her earlobe. He finally reached down between her legs, rubbing gently, wanting to bring her all the pleasure he could.

[Script]

She practically melted beneath him as he touched her, kissed her. He made her feel beautiful, made her feel special and important. Made her feel loved. When he rubbed her at her core, she moaned, nails scraping down his chest. "Sebastian...I...I love you..."

[Goblin]

"I love you too," he whispered, almost a gasp as he pulled her close, entwining his body with hers. He cupped her cheek and kissed her again, long and deep, pulling back slowly to look her in the eye. "Do you want to...?" He had to ask again, had to be absolutely sure that he was giving her something she wanted and needed. He was so afraid of hurting her more than he already had.

[Script]

She only looked up at him, meeting his eyes, keeping them there as her hands moved to unzip his pants, pushing them down, fingers touching him, wrapping around his length. "I want you, Sebastian...I need you..."

[Goblin]

Once he heard that, there was no way he could resist her. He kicked off his pants to join the clothes scattered on the floor, wrapped his arms around her, and entered her, breathing hard and fast as he moved inside her. It was the first time they'd been together like this since he'd told her the truth. Since she found out everything about him, or close enough. And he knew, even now, that it was also probably the last.

[Script]

She arched up, gasping as he filled her, her arms wrapping around him. She clung to him as she moved beneath him slowly, wanting the feeling to last, not wanting to forget it.

[Goblin]

He increased his pace slowly, running his nails lightly down her back, kissing her neck, holding back as long as he could. When he finally reached his climax, he wasn't even aware of anything but her, blinded by the pleasure of being inside her, of loving her with everything he had, and feeling her return that love. He lay beside her, dazed and breathless, his arms still around her, forgetting everything that had come before.

[Script]

She had fallen over that edge with him, their bodies moving together, almost as one. Afterwards, when they lay together, she held him close, face nuzzling into the crook of his neck. She knew she would have to do what she'd already made up her mind to, but for now...now she just wanted to hold him.

[Goblin]

He held her back and snuggled against her, dreamy and content, for a good few minutes. Then, slowly, it all started to come back to him...what had happened to her, how it was his fault, how she'd learned the full extent of his betrayal. And then they'd have sex. There was something horribly illogical and painful about that, no matter how much she'd needed it...but he couldn't feel sorry that it had happened, or even a little bit mad. Whatever she was going to say or do next, he deserved it. So once again, he found himself just waiting.

[Script]

She kissed his neck a while, working her way back to his mouth. She kissed him a while there, too, just wanting to taste him on her lips. Then she sighed, knowing she couldn't put off the inevitable any longer. She kissed him one more time before she pulled away, sitting up and reaching for her shirt, pulling it on, buttoning it slowly.
