Boredom breeds rebellion (waytoonew)

[Daedra]

Amelia noticed that he noticed that she had put herself in a bad position. As of right now, she didn't really care. She downed the rest of her ale, and smiled as he lounged comfortably. Amelia was tense, she probably shouldn't trust him, but her head was already buzzing lightly with the warm ale. He knew his way around, and she didn't. She twined a red curl around her finger in thought as he spoke again.

Amelia gave him a soft chiming laugh as he leaned closer to her. "You have been very fun, I've decided that I quite like your company." She gave him an amused smile, that quickly turned to a frown as he shot a glare her way at the teasing comment she had made. Amelia's eyes widened with shock, and she shook her head vigorously. "That's not at all what I meant, I'm so sorry if I've offended you." She looked down and bit her lip softly, feeling awful.

[waytoonew]

He smiles and puts a finger to her lip and runs it down as she tries apologizing, he runs it down off her lip freeing it from her biting down on it as he relaxes. "Mmmm I'm not offended... I've heard much worse..." he smiles and stretches taking back his finger as he leans back again. He couldn't help but laugh at how worried she had been. "Don't worry it will take something much much worse to drive me off... Be that an upside or downside is up to you..." He teases more smiling and finishing his drink he gets another drinking it right as it arrives, he seemed to be waiting for something sitting quietly for a few moments.

He finished the drink and a slight red tint coloured his cheeks as he smiles giddy and slightly tipsy, it was lucky he was only the opening act of the pub because it would be a while before he could play right tonight. He stops and smiles walking over to the bar and ordering the bottle for his room he comes back, "Mmmm we should retire..." He helps Amelia up and pulls her through the room holding her hand tight as if he would lose her in the crowd.

He stopped suddenly from his quick pace stumbling as the song changed. It was a quick jig, he smiles turning to her and letting go he holds a hand up smiling playfully. "Mmmm Madameouusal can I hav'b this dance?" He smiles just as tipsy as she was if not more from the drinks he had had.

[Daedra]

Amelia couldn't help but smile as he freed her lip from her teeth. "I'm glad I didn't offend you." Marick leaned back and her cheeks burned from his familiarity, and the ale. "I have no intention on driving you off, I should consider myself lucky to be sitting next to one as handsome and talented as you." Amelia couldn't stop the words bubbling forth from her mouth, the ale running rampant through her veins. She covered her mouth in embarrassment, before a giggle escaped her lips.

Amelia protested as he stood, thinking he was leaving her behind. He was back in a flash though, bottle of wine in hand. She nodded as he suggested the go elsewhere. Marick helped pull the now drunk and giggly girl from the booth. He held her hand tightly as they weaved through the crowd. Marick stopped suddenly, and Amelia almost fell, a laugh escaping her as she found that she had caught herself somehow.

Amelia curtsied to him as he held out his hand to her. "Why of course Monsieur!"  He seemed as drunk as she was, and she stifled another laugh, what a pair they made. "Just don't let me fall!" She grinned at him, with almost child like innocence in her drunken state.

[waytoonew]

He puts the bottle on a table and comes back taking her hand and laughing as she took the formal route with it. He leans in and twirls her almost tipping over before he catches her smiling and pulling her in close. He playfully grins as she comments on dropping her, he sways a bit and holds on so they could help each other keep standing.

"Mmmm if we go down I'll make sure you're on top..." He smiled and then began to laugh a bit, he was barely able to hide innuendo now when talking, he couldn't help but be a flirt with anything willing to talk to him when drunk. He smiles and takes her hands spinning her playfully and then catching her with one hand holding hers still the other on her hip as he walks in a circle swaying with her, usually he would be dancing a flamingo or something else more full of a noble or skill based dance to help show off with her, but now he was too tipsy to care.

He sways to the upbeat song with her like an awkward pair of teens at their first high-school dance. He smiles looking at her and laughing softly "Mmmm sorry about this... My feet are being stubborn..." He laughs softly swaying with her to the song his face bright red from the strong mead.

[Daedra]

Amelia laughed as he twirled her, managing to stay on her feet. Marick pulled her in close, their bodies pressed together, closer than she had ever been to anyone. A blush spread across her fair cheeks as they  swayed, balancing each other carefully. Amelia looked up at him, eyes shimmering with happiness.

Marick made quite the innuendo, and she laughed softly. "I don't think I would mind that at all, I'm tempted to take a spill now."  They were both well intoxicated, and that made her bold. Amelia din't mind the flirting one bit, it was rather flattering. Marick spun her playfully, and a smile lit her face, he pulled her in again, and the hand on her hip was warm and more familiar than she was used to. They circled slowly in place and she smiled lazily up at him.

Amelia smiled as they made their slow circle once again, and she rested her cheek on his chest. That was something she would have never done sober, but it felt nice. "I don't mind, I don't have to worry about falling as much." Amelia looked up at him, he was smiling and red faced, and she suddenly felt the urge to kiss him. She looked him in the eyes and smiled. " It think...I want to kiss you." She stood on tip toe, placing a cool hand on his cheek as she leaned in.

[waytoonew]

Marick smiles and laughs softly as he puts his other arm around behind her back as he holds her smiling as he looks down into her eyes as they moved. He was smiling a bit drunkenly as he moved with her slowly.

Marick laughs with her and tightens his grip on her as if she was serious about the fall. He smiles "Mmmm I'd prefer to keep it standing... Its a bit public here..." He mumbles down at her smiling as her head rested on his chest. It leans his head down letting it sit on top of her head his chin on her hair. With a deep breath he bites his lip listening to her talking "Mmm falling how?" He questions "I'd say us on the floor right now would be a spill more than a fall since we don't really get any lower..." He mumbles almost incoherently.

Listening to her talking about kissing he swayed still but stiffened a bit. With a low chuckle he looks down. "Mmm you do? That's quite the chain of thoughts..." He whispers and then leans forwards his chin dropping onto her shoulder as he slides right past her attempt to kiss. "Mmmm that's no fun... Songs over..." He mutters and then smiles. "Lets go have that talk..." Moving he keeps his arm around her waist and leaning on her obviously the mead hitting his thin frame quickly.

[Daedra]

Marick tightened his grip around Amelia, bringing them even closer. She laughed softly as he reminded her that they were very much in public. She had almost forgotten, she felt as if they were in their own world. "I suppose you are right, wouldn't want anyone to get jealous." Amelia grinned, she couldn't help it. She was giddy with happiness, and drunk on ale. She felt his chin rest softly on her hair and she sighed contentedly.

Amelia felt him stiffen as she attempted her drunken kiss, almost stung by his reaction. His chin resting against her shoulder now. She should know better, they did just meet after all. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that." Marick was quick to distract from the awkwardness of rejection, and he led her off the dance floor, arm around her waist. She tried to keep her poise, but stumbled a little as he led her along. "Talking is nice, and I wouldn't mind some of that wine you promised." Marick leaned against her for support, and she was silently glad she had some muscle strength to her. He would have collapsed her otherwise. "Lead on, I'll follow you anywhere."

[waytoonew]

He smiles softly and pauses to snatch the wine bottle off the table he had left it on. Bumping his hip into hers as he walks with her he sighs. "Never be sorry unless you hurt the person... Saying sorry for what you do like that is the same as being ashamed of yourself..." He smiles softly to her as he reaches the stairs walking up them with her help and helping her as much as he could Marick had not been this tipsy in a long while and it showed.

As he brought her up to the main hallway with all the rooms he went straight forwards and opened the door to a closet. Jumping up he pulls on a rope and a steep set of stairs almost a ladder rattles its way down from above. Marick quickly climbs up seeming to have forgotten his intoxication as he scurries up in seconds. Waiting at the top he takes Amelia's hand and pulls her up one arm holding her around the waist half to keep her froms tumbling into the trap door half to keep himself stable. Pulling on the rope again the entire thing slide back up and he sets up the door again with the release. Marick smiles to her winking once as he looks around.

"This used to be an upper class area but maintenance on it stopped... So I convinced him to let me live up here..." He explains smiling to her, the room was the length of the building, which was short since it was downtown. It was three to four times the size of a normal room there was a massive aging four poster bed, the mattress on which seemed new and replaced. He smiles "welcome to my home..."

[Daedra]

Amelia pondered his advice, and nodded. It seemed to make sense to her, though apologizing was her first instinct. They trudged up the stairs together, holding each other up. She giggled softly as they made their stumbling journey, she had never been drunk, but she was definitely  enjoying the experience.

Amelia looked at Marick, a puzzled expression as he opened a closet. She let out a small gasp as a set of stairs clattered down. He scampered up quickly, but she looked up apprehensively. She did not trust her balance one bit. Amelia was relieved when he pulled her up with steady arms. AS she reached the top, the stairs slid back into place, and it was if they never existed. Marick winked  and she had to conceal a blush.

Amelia clutched his arm in balance and took a good look around. She loved the space immediately. She let go of Marick and walked to the center of the room, she spun in a circle and laughed. "This is amazing!" She walked over to the bed, tracing the wood with a delicate finger. She sat upon the mattress and beckoned him to her. "Come, share that wine with me!"

[waytoonew]

Marick smiles and laughs as he walks over putting the bottle in her lap, he stumbles forwards getting close before catchign himself using the top of the bed his nose so close it almost touched hers. Pausing and looking her in the eyes a moment he pulls back clearing his throat as he walks over to the table lighting some candles in the pitch black room. Slowly he circled the room lighting all the candles so that the room was lit well enough. Suddenly a gust of wind picks up blowing them out, he bites his lip and laughs.

"Ah damned sorry the window is usually open because I like the breeze..." He smiles and lights one covering it with a glass tube before setting it on the bedside table. Walking over he digs in a cupboard plucking out two wine glasses. He comes back and sits beside her handing her the glasses he sets the bottle down. "Mmmm jeez I need to change the sheets..." He mutters and bites his lip as he goes to stand again to get more.

[Daedra]

Marick placed the bottle in her lap, and she looked at up at him eyes widening as he stumbled forward. He caught him self, nose almost grazing her face. Amelia trembled and fought the urge to try and kiss him again, her heart thumping erratically. Her eyes met his, her lips parted slightly. The magic was quickly broken, however, when he turned from her, awkwardness obvious in his stature. Marick lit several candles, but the wind from an open window thwarted his efforts. Amelia laughed softly with him. "I don't mind the dark, so long as I have you here to protect me."

Marick had set up a candle in a glass cylinder however, and she contended herself to watch him. He handed her a couple of glasses, and made to walk away again. Amelia grabbed his arm softly and pulled him back. "Why did you decide to allow me into your little world?"

[waytoonew]

He stopped as she grabbed him, he didn't fight her grip and after a second just sat again his arm on the bed behind her. He pauses and then listens to her question, he didn't know what to say, he sat quietly beside her a moment thinking of what he could say. He didn't have a specific reason it just felt right to him...

He smiles and looks up at her, "Honestly... You just gave me a feeling... I don't know what it was but it drew me to you... You are so may things I'm not... You are so kind and regal... Well mannered and beautiful..." He stops and then smiles. "Honestly you seem like an angel..." he smiles shyly and stand quickly going over into a dresser he heaves the heavy drawer open and takes out sheets and a blanket. Smiling to her he walks over and pauses. "Go on the sofa and get comfy while I make up the bed for you?" He asks her smiling a light red shade still plastering his face. He seemed to be enjoying himself but looked as if this was an area he hadn't experienced before and so he was trying to keep himself afloat in his drunken swirl.

Marick strips the bed down and stretches the sheets over them deftly folding and tucking them tight. Laying the fresh blanket over it he smiles and pauses looking at the two pillows. He smiles and plucks one up carrying the other blanket with him. Dropping them onto the chair he drops down next to her as he smiles and pulls the small table over in front of them pouring the glasses he lays back into the couch next to her. "Sorry well we are all set up now... so we can drink till we need to crawl our way there..." he jokes and sips his wine looking at her.

[Daedra]

Amelia looked into his eyes as he spoke, a blush creeping across her face. "I'm..thank you. I'm glad that we met. The minute I heard you play, I had to know you." She took his hand in hers softly. He pulled away, too quickly for her liking. "I don't feel like I'm all those things, but I think you are sweet."

Marick retrieved the sheets and a blanket, and obeys his command quietly. Amelia sat on the sofa, watching him, deep in thought. "If I'm an angel, you must be my salvation." She smiled at him, waiting for him to come back to her. "You saved me from a parade of suitors, and an incredibly lonely time." She was making him nervous, she was nervous too. This was all new to her as well as him.

Amelia sipped the wine he had poured. "I shall enjoy every second of it." She met his gaze and smiled wickedly. "We are going to share the bed, aren't we?" She tipped her glass to her lips and raised a challenging eyebrow at him.

[waytoonew]

Marick smiles and blushes as she takes his hand, he shifted in his seat but didn't pull away this time. He nods and smile. "I'm your hero now?" He teases and smiles softly as he relaxes thinking about how bad it must have been for her with a parade of suitors that large.

He laughs softly shaking his head at her comment. "My my aren't we a bold angel... With such a..." He pauses thinking of the right word to use before grinning and continuing, "Such a dirty... Mind..." he pauses wondering still if it was the right way to put it. He laughs and sips more wine leaning his shoulder into hers. He smiles patting the couch. "I'm letting you sleep on the bed, I'll be here... I'm drunk anyways so I won't notice anything about this..." He explains slowly.

Marick shifts his hand and then pours himself another glass, it was a sort of vicious cycle for him, he poured her more as well but the cycle for him continued. The more he drank the more of his composure he lost and the more nervous he got. So the more he drank to try to hide it only making it all the worse with each cycle.

[Daedra]

Marick didn't pull his hand from hers, and she smiled. His skin felt good against hers. "Being my hero will be easy, I promise." She enjoyed his teasing, it made her smile. Amelia looked at him, her heart giving a little flutter. He made her feel safe and warm...and nervous.

Amelia grinned at him and sipped her wine. "I wouldn't say dirty, more adventurous." He leaned into her, and she touched his cheek gently. "I really don't mind. I don't want to put you out of your bed. Besides, it's big enough to avoid touching if that's what you want." In all honesty, she was actually afraid of sleeping in a strange place alone. She had always slept in the same feather bed all her life.

Amelia sipped down the wine he poured for her. She grew bolder with each sip. He seemed so nervous around her. She leaned towards him. "Don't be nervous, it's okay" She leaned in even more and kissed his cheek softly.

[waytoonew]

Marick laughs as she corrects him on her mindset, she was right it was a better term for it... He smiles to her a moment before biting his lip and looking away with a blush as she tries to convince him to do things normally, he nods a bit and shrugs.

"I guess we can share a bed it you're that insistent on it... But no touching!" He teases partially as he leans his head back on the top of the sofa a minute before smiling and nudging her playfully. "I was going to be stiff from this damned thing in the morning anyways... I guess I should be more grateful you are so kind... But still ever so bold for a girl of your standings..." He jokes and smiles softly.

Hearing her telling him something and feeling her pressing into him he turned to face her quickly. "Don't be nervous ab-" He started to question her but he had timed it perfectly to no fault of his own. He had been in the middle of his B his lips puckered a bit when she leaned in. He kissed her on the lips a moment, his whole head and neck went deep red quickly and he stammered. "I-I'm sorry I-I didn't know you were uh... I uh" He stumbles through his words not knowing what to say.

[Daedra]

Amelia smiled happily as Marick teased her. "Well, I'm glad you changed your mind, I wouldn't want you to be stiff in the morning." He nudged her playfully, and she grinned. "I'm not your typical noble woman, I promise you that." He was teasing her again, and she blushed in response to the jests. "I won't touch you, unless you ask me nicely." Amelia laughed softly and smiled. It was her turn to do the teasing.

Marick turned towards he quickly, about to ask her a question, when their lips met in a delicate kiss. He pulled away from her, stuttering and trying to find words. Amelia blushed and looked down shyly. She had never kissed anyone before, ans she seemed to be at a loss of words for a moment. "Don't be sorry, it's more my fault than it is yours. I'm not sorry it happened." Amelia looked at Marick and smiled softly. She took his hand again and rested her head against his shoulder. "It was a nice feeling, actually. I wouldn't mind trying that again." She smiled up at him, face still red from blushing.

Amelia sat up and grabbed her glass, draining it's contents in a few sips. She licked her lips and rested against him once more. "Please don't be upset with me, if you want, I can leave. I'm sure a guard can escort me. I would rather not though. I really enjoy your company, even if I never get to kiss you again." She hoped Marick would kiss her again, but he seemed to be holding himself back. She realized that he might feel as if he were taking advantage of her, but she didn't care about that.

[waytoonew]

Marick didn't know how to respond, but she seemed to be taking the lead here and she spoke quite quickly, something pinged with what she said at first, she wasn't sorry, it was what he had been saying earlier to her about just that. He blushes and smiles a bit, as she snuggles up into his shoulder he shifts and leans his ear on the top of her head a moment before lifting it when she moved. He looks down at her and goes deeper red than before shifting his fingers wiggling a bit in her hand as he gets his hand comfortable.

"You say that like its a nice wine... I'm not sure how to feel... We haven't even started on the talking short of whats actually happened here..." He mutters a bit softly as he leans his shoulder against hers and his head onto hers. He was embarrassed beyond belief about a lot of this but it didn't feel wrong, to him it just felt right to be here talking or not with her he jut felt warmer, like he didn't need to show himself as a performer but could just laugh and joke with her as long as he wanted to. It was late for sure the tavern below going rather quiet most people heading to bed or home.

Marick shifts and puts his forehead on the top of her head whispering a bit into her ear. "I'm not upset... Don't go..." He whispers, "I don't care who escorts you in the morning... I'll even do it myself... But tonight your blushing stumbling drunken self is my problem..." He mutters gently his lips almost right against her ear as he till holds onto her hand. It was so odd to him that this girl was causing him so much unease in the best of ways. He wished he could sit like this for the rest of the night.

Shifting he bites his lip and sighs, "Jeez... I'll be back... We need to go to bed soon anyways... I need the privy so you can get yourself changed and in the bed before I get back... We can have our talk laying down so we can just pass out whenever... I'll be back..." He slips free of her hand standing only to catch himself on a stool. Falling forwards he catches himself but ends up atop her, his hands, one on her hip the other her shoulder pinning her to the couch his knee between her knees he blushes. "Jeez I'm clumsy as hell when I'm drunk like this..." He mutters looking down at her to apologize something stopping him.

[Daedra]

Amelia enjoyed the warmth of him next to her, his shoulder resting against hers, his head resting on her curls. She realized that no, they haven't talked much, but that didn't seem to matter. What they had been doing was a natural feeling to her, and it didn't feel wrong to her. She felt happier and more free than she had ever felt before. "Ah, but your lips do taste of the wine." She smiled softly, green eyes half closed in contentment. "I'm not sure how I feel, all I know is that I have enjoyed every minute of the time we have spent together, talking or not."

Amelia shivered slightly as he spoke softly in her ear. He pleaded with her not to go, and she felt a sort of pleasure in that. His lips almost touched her ear as he whispered gently to her, and it took all her strength not to turn and kiss him again. Amelia felt butterflies in her stomach, and her heart nearly pounded out of her chest. "I won't leave, I promise. I'll stay here with you for as long as you want me to." She whispered softly, as her small frame trembled beside him. She felt more alive than she could remember.

Amelia protested softly, she didn't want him to move from her. In a swift moment, he was pulling away from her again. Marick stood, stumbling as he did so. One second, he was standing above her, the next he was atop her. Amelia gasped softly, eyes wide. He pinned her with a firm grip, and she found herself filled with a desire she had never felt before. He spoke, but she hardly heard him. She twined her fingers in his hair, and leaned up to kiss him with a passion she couldn't express in words.

[waytoonew]

Marick was too close to avoid it as she kissed him again, he didn't fight, there was no return at first as he sat shocked slowly he began to move a bit in return, he shifted his hand now on her leg holding it gently his hand sliding off her shoulder over her neck and through her hair. He closed his eyes a moment as he let this go on, he shifted his lips again and again as if trying to pull hers into his own. He broke it a moment to breath and to allow her the same luxury but this time he dove back in after a few breaths. He took the lead this time pushing in and pinning her gently with his lips another long kiss went on before he pulled back panting.

"Gods above..." He mutters looking down into Amelia's eyes a bit of subconscious guilt hitting him, he was drunk as all hell he doubted he would even remember past the first glass of wine, he felt like he was going to be missing out on this when he came back sober. kissing her forehead he shifts off of her and picks her up smiling as he carries her, he was a bit thin in frame but didn't seem to have troubles carrying the shorter girl in his arms moving her to the bed he sits her down on the side and kisses her cheek,

"I wasn't making an excuse earlier... I really do need to go..." He bites his lip and rushes through the trap door the long delay making him all the more desperate to get to the privy on time. As he had told her earlier that he was allowing her this time to change and get herself into sleeping clothing or what ever she would wear.
