stellar!! :D ill be there!

[And sure enough, a few hours later when it's still daylight (though probably close to being evening), Clay shoots him a quick text to let him know he's coming over, then makes his way to the Blue Fish. He's dressed up in a heavy coat, gloves, a couple layers of pants, and a winter cap that pushes all of his spiky hair down so that it fans out at the bottom of the hat.

And the visor is on top of that winter hat. Yup.]

[Allen is waiting in the cargo bay when Clay comes up. He's just got a hooded coat, some winter gloves and a scarf on. He snorts when he sees how heavily dressed Clay is and with the visor. What a Californian baby.]

[But he'll sling his bag over his shoulder before he approaches him. When he's close enough, he'll lean in to kiss him on the cheek]

Hey you.

[Yes Allen you're dating a big Californian baby how sad

When Allen makes his way over, Clay, who'd had his shoulders up and his hands fisted in his coat pockets, gives a big grin, laughs quietly at the kiss, and leans in to transfer his hands from his pockets to Allen's while he rests his chin on his shoulder. Aaah, body heat.]

Hey, you. You're much warmer.

Edited 2015-12-15 01:21 (UTC)

Hey! [He laughs as he moves to embrace him with his arms] Is that why you wanted to see me tonight? Free heat?

Well, maybe it'd be an added perk on top of everything else...

[And mmm, now with Allen's arms around him, he really doesn't want to leave, least of all go back out in that cold. He seems to burrow a little bit as a response, moving in closer and pressing his mouth to the dip in Allen's shoulder.

Buuuut going out means getting one step closer to a really good time. So he moves back a little bit, affectionately brushing the tip of his nose against Allen's cheek.]

Ready to go?

[He's grinning as they pull back, and he moves his head so he can kiss the tip of Clay's nose.]

Yeah, I'm ready.

[He'll move to Clay's side, putting one of his hands into the same pocket and wrapping it around Clay's hand- so at least one of his hands is still in his pocket as he starts heading out that door.]

I hope you have a place in mind. It's might take awhile to get all those layers of yours off.

[He goes a little red in the cheeks, but still laughs a bit, his hand curling around Allen's while the other one gets stuffed in his own pocket.]

Ha, yeah, there's a couple of places I looked at. One is - [OOP, NOW THEY'RE OUTSIDE AND THERE'S A BLAST OF COLD AIR. Clay squeezes his eyes shut and winces, because goddamn he only just warmed up a bit. But hey, now there's someone warm by his side, so he opens his eyes again and gives a light smile.] Anyway, one's really cheap, and the other's kind of expensive, but nothing we can't handle, and it'd be worth it too. Soooo... I guess it depends on if we want to splurge a bit or save some money.

[With Allen's free hand, he pulls up his scarf so it covers up the bottom half of his face.]

By really cheap, do you mean a bargain deal or do you mean we're likely be sharing the room with bedbugs cheap?

I didn't get a good look inside, but from what I saw, it'd... definitely be a bargain! Because of the possible bedbugs. If this planet actually has any.

[Man, now Clay wishes he bought a scarf. Maybe later!]

Hmmm...

[He considers it. As much as he likes saving money, they did have a lot of extra money lately from the Marsiva incident. And you know, this was their first time together...]

You know what? Forget that then. How about we treat ourselves, just this once? If we can afford it, it's fine.

[And Clay can't help looking excited by that. He wouldn't mind staying in a cheap place, especially if it meant saving money... But that place was cheap, and the more expensive one looked so nice, and he really, really wanted to treat Allen and have a great atmosphere for their first time.]

We definitely can! Especially if it's just for one night. [They're both fit, able-bodied men, so he's pretty sure they can get quite a bit done in one night.] I haven't seen what the rooms look like, but the lobby looked really cool.

[Wow. Agreeing to the expensive place was worth it just for the excited look in Clay's eyes. Just seeing it sent a feeling of warmth through him despite the cold]

Alright, then let's do it! [There's a bit of excitement in him, feeling a thrill of doing something he normally wouldn't. Especially now that he knows it wasn't going to send them into debt.] Lead the way.

[No waaay, especially if they both contribute to it!

But anyway, TIME SKIP TIME. The lobby is impressive, but the room they get is equally so! Salt sculptures, impressive lighting... and a very comfortable bed. Clay's already getting rid of a few layers, letting the coat and over-shirt fall to the floor, his visor sit on the TV stand, and is now starting to get rid of the first layer of pants. Not that he's getting started on fun times right now, but now that they're inside, it's starting to get a little too warm for him.]

So? What do you think?

[Allen meanwhile is removing his own coat and draping it on a chair, along with his scarf. He looks around the room, a bit impressed by the set up. The salt sculptures...okay, those are a little odd, but hey every planet has it's quirks]

It's brilliant. You picked a good place.

[Maybe you can swipe one of those sculptures and use it for your food! But okay, Clay gives a thrilled smile as he gets rid of a couple layers of pants, then slides off the winter hat, giving his head a shake to floof out his hair again.]

Thanks! I really wanted the best for, well... this. And there were more expensive places, but I figured we wouldn't want to spend that much money.

No, this is perfect.

[It was nice and fancy, but much fancier would probably make Allen feel a bit uneasy. This was at least still comfortable.]

[He dropped his gloves on the chair on top of the coat, while kicking off his boats]

So...what do you want to do first?

[His shoes and multiple socks already kicked off, Clay makes his way around the bed barefoot to Allen, then reaches to take his hand in his own with a somewhat shy smile.]

Well, I have been wanting to kiss you since we got on this planet, so...

[He intertwines Clay's fingers with his own, returning that shy smile with a loving one.]

What do you know? I've wanted the same.

[And with that, he'll lean forward to kiss him slowly on the lips]

[That shy look of his turns into something loving as well, and as Allen leans in, Clay lifts his free hand to hold Allen's cheek, then shuts his eyes as he returns that slow kiss. It's slow, long-lasting and deep, and above all, absolutely tender and loving, and Clay slides his hand gently from Allen's cheek to the back of his neck, where he strokes his thumb just in front of his ear.

When the kiss breaks for a moment, Clay takes in a few deep breaths, still keeping close and his eyes shut.]

I love you so much.

[He whispers it, and then he leans in to kiss him again, just the same way as before.]

[Even though he's heard those words from Clay many times now, he still can't help but feel elated hearing them. Especially when they sound so truly sincere. When he knows Clay is nothing but sincere. When he knows his own heart feels the same way for him.]

And I love you.

[Allen's own hand stays on Clay's cheek, while the other moves down to find one of his belt loops- wrapping his finger into it. As they kiss again, Allen slowly moves back until he's against the bed, he tugs at Clay's belt loop as he climbs onto the bed- indicating to follow]

[Clay feels that same elation when he hears those words in return, knowing that Allen means every word. It's a shot of joy that makes him press a little closer, go right along with the tug at his belt loop. He follows after Allen, climbing on with him and - and though he tries to keep up the kiss while doing so, it's kind of hard to do so, so he ends up unintentionally breaking it as he shuffles a bit on the bed.]

Ah, oops - [He says with a little laugh. But hey, they're on the bed now! Better to get themselves situated on it properly before moving on to other things.]

[He laughs at the little "oops", since yeah that's not as easy to do as you'd think- but they're on the bed now. He scoots a bit back on the bed while they are apart so he's on it more fully on the bed, all while noticing something very important]

- Ah! This bed is so soft!

[Like holy shit excuse him as he bounces a little as he sits on it. ITS SO SOFT LOOK AT IT CLAY]

I can't remember the last time I've been on a bed this nice!

[Definitely not since Paradisa, at least]

[Y e p, that's something Clay's noticing as he's climbing onto the bed too, hands and knees sinking into it slightly - like, when was the last time he actually sunk into a bed?]

Dude. Dude!

[HOLY SHIT YEAH, he is definitely bouncing on the bed. He kind of wants to jump on it, but man, he doesn't want to risk bumping his head or anything.]

This is really nice! It's like lying on a cloud! [He flops over on his back, a breathless laugh escaping, and he turns his head to look at Allen with a big grin.] Seriously, could we plan a heist for some of these beds or something?

[Allen meanwhile flops on the bed along with him, rolling a bit in spot with a big grin on his face. He'll look over at Clay when he suggests that]

Ah- I wish, but I think they might notice their bed missing!

[He rolls to his side, half to face Allen, half to just feel the sensation of doing so on such a nice bed, and gestures a bit as he talks.]

No, see, what if... what if we switch out this bed for one of ours? I mean, it's all kinds of illegal, but it'd totally be worth it!

[He kids, because he knows they can't actually do it. But it's nice to consider it...!]
