A Drink after Beltane: Sid & Aloysius

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

The carriage pulled to a stop and I smiled to Aloysius.

"It looks like we're here." I gave him a coy glance and looked out the window.

[Aloysius d’Brézé (I)]

I leaned forward and kissed her upon the cheek, a smile upon my lips as we had made not a noise the entire trip. I couldn't say why, but it was simply what had happened.

"It would certainly seem that way, wouldn't it?" I didn't wait for her coachman, opening the door myself and stepping down, waving him away cordialy and turning to offer her my hand. "My Lady."

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

I smiled softly and stood reaching out to take his hand and stepped out of the carriage's cab.
"Kind sir." I said in reply. "This way." I added gesturing for him to follow as I walked toward the door.

[Aloysius d’Brézé (I)]

I followed her and looked around as I did so, taking in what I could see at the late hour and smiled. "As you wish." This was her home, and I would simply be the one following and admiring on this excursion.

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

I smiled back at him walking in front of him and swaying my hips a little.
"My house is a little bare, I'm still moving things from Aragonia and picking up a few knick knacks." I pushed open the front door and gestured for him to follow, and once he was inside I closed the door behind me.

"There area few places we could go to have our drink." I turned to him and smile. "I have a very small library and study, there's the salon just over here." I gave a half smile.
"And then there's my room." I raised a brow to him.

[Aloysius d’Brézé (I)]

I watched her hips and couldn't help but let my smile broaden. It wasn't until I was inside that I took my eyes from her to gaze around at her home. I continued to do so even as she spoke and then turned to face her when she sought my decision.

"I think we could start in the library." I was intrigued to see it. I suspected that after earlier we would end up in the master bedchamber, but nothing dictated having to start our evening alone there. "As long as that's something you wouldn't mind." I reflected her arched brow, my smile still playing across my features.

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

I arched my brow and cocked my head side ways, curious. I could have been worry, but it probably suite my sanity better if things were slowed down a little.

"Very well." I said smiling. "This way." I walked forward guiding us to the east corner of the house, the library under my room. The two were actually one, a spiral wrought iron staircase sat beautifully in the rooms corner and led straight up into the bed room. It was a clever house, the reason I purchased it. It was small in comparision to many of the other houses in the neighbourhood, but I was used to the close quarters.

"Here we are." I said spinning softly. Three walls were covered with shelves of books and a small desk for writing next to a metal heater. The only wall not covered in books was the wall with two large bay windows with cushioned seats beneath them. The whole room was a mix or reds, rusts, browns and russets. It was just the way I liked it, the only room in the house I had ever put a significant amount of my money into.

[Aloysius d’Brézé (I)]

I moved past her, brushing against her gently as I did. I walked along one of the walls, admiring the books I found there, trying to be careful in my manner so it did not appear as if I were ignoring the owner of the books. I rested a hand on the staircase and followed it up with my eyes before turning to face her again. I smiled mischievously and sat upon one of the seats beneath the window.

"Gorgeous." I said as I crossed my legs and waited for her reaction.

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

I smiled watching him.
"It is indeed." I said slowly coming toward him, my hands clasped before me. "I purchased the home because of the library." I added as I sat next to him.

[Aloysius d’Brézé (I)]

"Who said I was talking about the house?" I countered in an amused tone. "Mayhaps I was talking about the owner?" I had stretched my arms along the sill of the window as she sat and gazed out at the room once more. "I suppose we shall never know which I meant..." A smile played across my lips as I playfully avoided looking at her.

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

I bit my lower lip a little and sighed inwardly as I tried not to grin and blush.
"I started writting a new story." I said watching him from a moment then stood and went to my desk before coming back to him and sitting down. This time I sat next to him, pressing myself a bit to him and offered the papers.

"Its about a queen and her secret lover."

[Aloysius d’Brézé (I)]

I arched a brow as I listened to her and as she sat I pulled her gently against me and took the papers gently.

"Any basis in truth?" I asked, a tone of amusement in my voice hopefully portraying the joke. I let my eyes scan the first few lines and then stopped as a thought came to me. "Has anybody else read this?

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

Chuckling at his jest I let my body curl to his and smiled shaking my head.
"No one," I said softly. "I just started it. Why do you ask?"

[Aloysius d’Brézé (I)]

I smiled and continued to read, speaking as I did so. "Did you forget, dear Sidonie, that I am a fan?" I only read a few more lines before handing her back the pages. "However, I don't know that I'd care to ruin the surprise of the book before you finish it." I gave her a gentle squeeze and looked down at her face. "But the beginning is excellent. I cannot wait to read the rest."

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

I smiled remembering that he was indeed, I took back the manuscript and held it to me.
"How lucky for you to be the first," I said with a chuckled then laid the paper aside before looking back at Aloysius.
"I will be sure to save you a copy when it's finished." I offered with a smile.

"Can I get you a drink?"

[Aloysius d’Brézé (I)]

I shook my head slightly. "How lucky indeed and you have no idea how happy that would make me, having a copy." I allowed my head to roll back and closed my eyes momentarily before replying to her question.

"No thank you. At least, not right now." I loosened the protective grip of my arm, in case she wanted to get up and get herself one however.

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

"Are you tired?" I asked reaching out and touching his jaw before trailing down over his neck and finally having my hand come to lay on his chest.

"I could tuck you in if you wish." I quirked a small smile and felt warm in my cheeks. Oh Elua, I was like a spring chicken! My hand found a small area in which to slip my fingers through, and I gently touched his skin there.

[Aloysius d’Brézé (I)]

I shook my head, or rather rolled it from side to side to appear to be shaking my head. "No. Not tired. Not in the least. Content, yes. Relaxed, a great deal." I laughed softly. "And if by tucking me in you mean to join me, I may take you up on the offer. I do not think I would take well watching you walk away from a bed I was in unless you had also been in the bed with me."

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

I chuckled softly, my hand now reaching for the hem of his shirt. Pulling it out of his breeches, I reached under neath and found full use of his chest. Slowly and softly I let my hand caress over him, trying to soothe him further.

[Aloysius d’Brézé (I)]

Breath escaped my lungs in a sigh as her hand roamed the skin of my chest. Using both of my hands I peeled the shirt off of my body, and it was more or less a peeling. It's tightness an aspect I had fought for in its creation. I lightly dropped the shirt to the floor hooked my arm around her shoulders again.

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

With his skin bare I leaned forward and pressed my lips to his chest. My lips rained down soft kissed over him, never lingering for more then a breath in one spot. Then my lips made their way to his neck, kissing softly and assuredly. A soft moan escaped my lips with out thought but I continued to kiss him feeling all the pleasure in the world at being there.

[Aloysius d’Brézé (I)]

I had intended to smile, but she hit a particularly delicate spot, just below my collarbone and I inhaled sharply. She didn't stop there, however, and when she started up my neck a soft mixture of sigh and moan escaped my lips.

[Sidonie Raviver (D)]

He started to make some wonderful sounds and I felt a yearning gown down my chest, through my stomach and settle in my nether reigon. I was wet for him.

"Aloysius." I gasped slightly. I shifted, lifting my skirts I straddled his legs and continued kissing where I chose. This time though my kisses were long sensual, taking my time to enjoy his skin, taste it, touch it.
My mouth moved to his nipple, flicking my tongue over the skin before bitting it slowly.
