[Oh. That...is definitely new territory that's never been explored. In fact, it's not something Link has ever considered. He feels every fiber of his being sort of lock up with surprise both in and out, and for a moment he's frozen, unable to do anything but sit there shuddering beneath Allen's gentle touch.
He may not be able to think back for Allen to hear, but he does nod just slightly. It's quiet invitation and consent for more, even if he can't quite find his voice at the moment.]
... [ Allen pulls his lips away, tucking his hair back a bit. ] You can say no, Li.
[ I know he knows. But I am just slightly worried he'll try to please me above his own comfort...
A few more kisses are dragged along his cheek as he moves his head down and presses a very tentative one against his neck, as he waits for Link to respond. ]
[It's a double-edged sword that he can still hear Allen's thoughts, because it still feels so intrusive and invasive...yet, more than anything, it makes him want to reassure him that much more.
He shakes his head a little, his fingers tightening their grip just slightly on Allen's hips. He doesn't get the chance to reply before he kisses his neck, which elicits a soft gasp before he whispers between them:]
[ He nods, at least... satisfied with that. For now, anyway. Allen is liable to fuss at Link later, as he his still nervous. But at least right this moment, he presses his lips back against Link's. Then, carefully, he'll adjust himself so that he's sitting in Link's lap. It's a slow enough movement that Link will very easily be able to stop him from the second he's straddled. ]
[Funnily enough, his reaction is to let out a nervous laugh as Allen wiggles his way into his lap, looking at him in a way that can only be described as apologetic.]
I’m probably not the most comfortable place to sit…I apologize.
[ Allen shakes his head. ] You're plenty comfortable. If anything, I'm the comfortable seat here - but only because I'm a little smaller than you are.
[ "A little". He's much smaller than Link, both by height and stature, but he's not gonna point that out. He does have some fat thighs, though, so... uh. Have fun with that, Link. He hopes he doesn't end up putting Link's legs to sleep like this. It's... probably fine. ]
Unless that was your way of politely telling me to get off?
[It’s his turn to pause and brush a lock of hair from Allen’s eyes, though his bangs seem to want to stubbornly bounce back into place regardless. If his legs fall asleep thanks to Allen well he’ll just have to suffer because this boy ain’t going anywhere.]
[ You can blame the combination of his scruffy British hair genes, and Johnny for giving him this cut. Sorry, Link.
Allen nods a little, leaning in again and this time just focusing on kissing Link’s neck. This will get some stuttered thoughts that Allen is obviously trying not to think about. Mostly, he’s suddenly very aware of himself, what he’s doing, where he is, and despite how confident he is with his movements, his thoughts are… nervous. It’s not like he can also read Link’s thoughts. How’s he supposed to know if this is okay…?
He gently nibbles at the skin, trying to shove all the anxiety from his head and just focus on what he’s doing now. ]
[Well, there's only one way for him to know, isn't there? Maybe it's not the best idea on his part, but...
As Allen nibbles at his neck, Link gasps, shudders, and then leans forward a fraction, his temple resting against Allen's as he feels like electricity is passing its way sharply up through his spine in that moment. He gasps again, this time a short breath through his teeth, and then without thinking before he does it, he mutters:]
[ Oh damn, it's almost like Link can read his mind-- Wait.
Right.
Despite his fluster, he pushes through it to leave more rough kisses against Link's neck. He pulls back his high collared shirt, mentally noting that it's really in the way of all this. His necklace, too... maybe he should take at least that off? Surely Link wouldn't mind...? He hasn't really seen Link take it off unless it was to shower, though. And religious folk are... particular, sometimes, right?
He pulls Link's braid back instead, and just starts to undo his braid so he can start carding his hand through his hair instead. ]
[Link…is not aware of just how fucking nice it feels to have someone else play with your hair, holy shit. It isn’t until Allen is pulling his plait apart with his fingers that he’s just…struck with the sensation that causes his spine to tingle and a shaky breath to escape him, his body shifting a fraction closer to Allen’s unconsciously.
He does hear Allen’s pondering about the necklace, but for now he doesn’t bring it up. He figures it won’t become a real issue unless. Well. He’s not showing ankle yet so just jot that down. He wants to focus on the hair thing for now anyway, reaching up to take the ribbon he uses to keep his hair tied up so he can place it aside, the rest of his hair falling over his shoulders in waves the moment Allen frees it fully.]
[ Allen lifts his head and gently bumps his nose to Link’s as he generously cards his fingers through his hair. His Innocence does so a little more carefully, just so none of the strands get caught in the open joints. He hums, enthused. ]
Li… [ A pause. ] You’re so breathtaking, it’s hard to find the words to tell you how overwhelmingly beautiful you are.
[ After another soft brush of their noses, he steals another quick kiss from Link. ]
[As Allen lavishes him with attention, affection, and praise, Link feels his chest tighten with emotion. It’s not often he’s left at a complete loss for words like this, but somehow Allen manages it each and every time. His eyes shift, clearly taken aback by his words, before he finally recenters himself and bumps their foreheads together following that kiss, his thumbs brushing Allen’s hipbones.]
Since I can hear your thoughts alongside your words, I feel…it is only fair if I be honest with you, too.
[Completely honest, even if just the first few words leave him blushing so hard it looks like he might pass out.]
From the day I was first assigned to guard you, I never knew just what sort of impact you would have on my life. Though initially small, you filled each day with light, and laughter. I’d never gotten to experience such before. You…
[He looks down, then back up.]
You’re the best thing that has ever happened to me, Allen Walker.
[ Wait wait wait!!!! Hold on! The best thing that- Huh?! Just what does he mean by that?! If it weren't for Allen, he wouldn't have to get tangled up in half of the messes he's been a part of! That isn't-
[ Then he removes his hands from Link's hair and covers his face, as fruitless as that is. Between Link already seeing that he's so red he'd make the color itself jealous and also being able to hear his fragmented, flustered thoughts, covering his face is not doing anything for him.
Why does he have to go and say things like that? Why does anyone say such kind things to Allen, that mean he... means something to them more than just being a nuisance?? Allen hasn't told Link anything nearly so grandoise, and it feels like the other had truly just reached into his ribcage to seize Allen's heart. Hh...
"Light and laughter" when misery follows Allen around like an imprinted baby bird... it's bitterly laughable, and yet also so relieving to hear??
Fuck fuck fuck he shouldn't be so overcome by this. It's fine! Link is just saying how he feels! That happens when you're both busy courting one another, right?! ]
L... [ His voice is having trouble coming out suddenly, what the hell. Work with him, body!! ] I love you.
[It's easy to dwell on and overanalyze your every flaw when you are Allen Walker. Allen, who has had to come to terms with the fact that he's not even a real person in the sense that he was born on this earth and destined to have his own life to do whatever he wants with. He's always been part of someone- or something- else. He's never been given that choice. While Link's life had been similar in that he hadn't had much choice in the role he ended up playing, moreso because he feels like he owes his entire life to Central, he can't even begin to imagine the mental turmoil that Allen has to go through every day, just to rationalize his own existence.
But when given the time to think about it- really think- Link had come to that conclusion easily. Allen had caused a lot of trouble, there's no denying that. But, if he were to go back through the last few years of his life...Link can't honestly say his life would be any better without Allen in it. They'd still be fighting this war. His comrades would have still been in the situation they are now. If anything, he thinks things could have been a lot worse. Without Allen...
He doesn't really like thinking about it.
Yes, he almost died. Apocryphos came terribly close, but they'd all entered this war with the understanding that any one of them could die at any moment, and Link is confident saying that if he had died that day protecting Allen, it would have been worth it. Yes, he's still under Central's thumb by way of Lvellie. Yes, he's been given the task to ally with and guard the Fourteenth.
But here? Here...he can focus less on their duties, less on the fate of the fucking universe for once, and more on what he wants. How he feels.]
...I love you, too.
[He says it easily and without hesitation, though he does worry he's said something wrong. He's covering his face, so he can't tell from his expression...so instead, he'll remove one hand from his hip to brush his bangs away just a little.]
[ Allen quickly shakes his head and pulls his hand away. ] Y-you have no reason to apologize. You cannot control reading my thoughts, and... if you're apologizing about saying how you feel, you shouldn't. That's... what we're supposed to do!
[ Communication is important! ]
I... am just embarrassed. It's weird to hear someone... say stuff like that so genuinely.
[ He puts his hands back on Link, but this time against his sides, gently tugging on the tight fabric of his shirt. ]
I didn't even think you could love me like I do. I... was so afraid that I'd lose you if I told you how I felt.
[Allen tugs on him gently, prompting Link to reach out and gently embrace him, pulling him in close to his chest. It's a proper hug, especially with Allen already sitting straddling him as he is in his lap. His free hand cradles the back of Allen's head, and for a moment he just...sits there with him, breathing him in.]
I've loved you far longer than I even realized it was love.
[He admits, his voice a little thin because it's still a bit embarrassing to admit it aloud. It's the truth though, and he knows anything less would be a lie.]
The only way you'd get rid of me now is if I died for real, this time.
Do you have to bring up such a somber thing when I've just had my tongue in your mouth...?
[ He's pouting a little, but... he doesn't actually mind. He appreciates the confession, more than anything else. He can't help but tease Link, anyway. ]
Well, that's good, because you're going to be bloody hard pressed to get rid of me now. [ His hands are back in Link's hair, where he gives him the tiniest of tugs so that he can press his lips right against Link's once again. ]
[There's still a clear note of shyness there, but...when Allen kisses him, Link is happy to kiss him right back, melting into his touch. He's never been quite this intimate with a person before, least of all in terms of, like...honesty. He feels like a book that's been laid bare to be read cover-to-cover, and...he finds he actually doesn't mind that.
If it's Allen, it's okay.
So don't mind him if he pulls you even closer, Allen, until you're practically laying against him.]
[ Allen smiles a little against Link's lips. He'll hear in his thoughts, among the sea of other things, that he's so enthused to feel Link's heartbeat against his chest like this.
Very gently, he pushes his weight into Link, trying to coax him to lay down so that he can lay on top of him. Risqué? Maybe a little. But he wants to kiss Link breathless, and that'll be so much easier if he's laying down. ]
[Given that Allen is already practically laying on top of him? It's easily done. Link allows himself to be pushed prone, shifting a bit until he's laying back properly with Allen laying against his chest.
This is something new. Just having him in his lap was a lot, but this? If Allen liked the way his heartbeat felt against him before...]
