Astra nodded, and waved
him off, turning her attention over to a small group of dancers. She
tore off some more of the meat, and started to sway along with the
soft music coming from the dulcimer. A light rain was beginning to
fall, and she glanced up, opening her mouth slightly to take some of
it in. Astra smiled, letting her eyes flutter momentarily across the
night sky.
Peter turned around, the
mugs of mead trembling in his hands. He watched her, his eyes roving
over her body before they settled on her gently moving hips. His
heart raced, and he panted, taking a sip of the mead before looking
at her again. She had finished the turkey leg and was now standing on
her tip toes, giggling as she let her tongue dart out to catch some
of the rain.
They locked eyes, and she
gave him a smile. Peter left the mead down on the table, and slowly
walked over.
“You left the mead,”
she murmured.
He exhaled. “You’re
beautiful,” Peter blurted out.
Astra blushed. “Thank
you.” She pointed up at the sky. “I think it’s starting to
rain.”
“Is it?” he croaked.
His eyes trailed down to her mouth. “I don’t think I noticed.”
Peter let out a small groan as her tongue ran over her bottom lip.
“Do you want to dance?”
“Oh.” Astra’s cheeks
pinked once more as she nodded.
Peter wrapped his arm
around her waist, drawing her closer to him as the pace of the music
increased. He could feel her heart beat against his and he sighed.
“Astra…”
Her eyes flicked up.
“Hmmmm?”
He kissed her. Astra
gasped, her mouth opening as she felt the heat of his tongue
searching for hers. She shut her eyes, her knees quaking as she
moaned. She could feel the rain pelt down on them, and she sighed.
Peter shook, and he
panted, gently releasing her. He swallowed, his jaw line clenching as
he settled his hands on her cheeks and searched her eyes. “Astra…”
“Peter…” Astra
closed her eyes, and tried to steady her heartbeat as they rested
their foreheads against each other. “Peter…”
