[ Raleigh is a pretty patient fair guy who lets Mako get away with a lot, and Mako loves him for it. She knows that she's not the easiest person to live with, but they've come together with an ease that's startled even her. It had been difficult to convince him that he's the one that she wants, that even after all of the confusion and the mess, she's still hopelessly, wonderfully in love with him.
But it had happened, and they'd moved from the Shatterdome together, out into the world on their own; Mako still works on the rebuilding efforts, but such things take her all over the world -- and Raleigh comes with her, taking up construction jobs even when money isn't needed, preferring to work with his hands and build instead of staying idle. They work seamlessly as a team still, even with the Drift behind them now -- she's got him, and he has her, forever and always. She's not alone because she has him; she's not alone because he's by her side every step of the way, and it's a sweet feeling to remind herself of that, that she's loved so deeply, so completely by him.
Tonight, however, she's far too preoccupied with her blueprints to pay much attention to him, even if his desire sparks in the back of her mind. She's making markings, barely looking up even when a part of her attention's caught at the way he's toying with her dog tags. ]
Mmmhmm, later. [ She's flipping the pages, before she glances at him. ] Pass me the highlighter?
[Does she mean this highlighter? The one that Raleigh picks up with his other hand and tosses to the floor? Because that just happened and he's not even a little bit sorry.
She works too much and he wants to spend some one and one time with her and he will throw her blueprints on the ground in a few moments if she doesn't give him her full attention pretty soon. It's okay to take some time off Mako. It's also okay to leave work at the office too but he knows that tonight is about baby steps.
Raleigh tugs at the chain around her neck again, a little more forcefully this time, pay attention to him, Mako. Right now.]
[ Mako makes a noise and instinctively moves over to want to pick it up, because what are you doing, Raleigh? But then he's tugging her back by her dog tags and for some reason, she finds that inexplicably sexy.
He's in an insistent, randy mood tonight, and Mako lets herself be pulled, her attention shifting to him -- it's rare that he's so aggressive, and a part of her really likes it. Mako sits up, takes notice, startled but pleased. ]
[It's good that she gives up on the highlighter because he definitely would've tackled her to the floor if she kept reaching for it. That's a good way to get her attention, right? But apparently so is tugging on her dog tags, because she's finally looking at him and Raleigh's smiling at her when she does.
Good. That's exactly what he wants. Now if he could just get her papers out of her lap.]
[ No chance, flyboy. Those papers are staying where they are! (Probably.) But then Raleigh is beaming at her, boyish and sweet, and some part of her yields even before she knows it.
Leaning closer, she tugs him towards her by his shirt, loosening her hold on the papers. ]
Now you have my full attention. How do you predict it's going to go?
Raleigh doesn't let go of the chain around her neck, using his grip on it to pull her in the rest of the way, so his lips brush against hers but he doesn't kiss her. Not yet.]
Oh, did you want me to set them aside? [ Mako teases, and it makes her toes curl when he teases her like that, a kiss that's not quite a kiss, and she can't help but want more, leaning forward almost instinctively. ]
You're very sexy when you're aggressive and teasing at the same time. Are you really not going to give me that kiss, Mr. Becket?
[That's really what he's going to do. She moves forward and he leans back just as much, lingering close to her but refusing to kiss her until the papers are on the floor with the highlighter.]
[ Mako makes a soft noise, pursuing him until she can't, and is forced to make a choice: dump the papers so she can crawl on his lap, or reach a stalemate? It's very sexy when he tugs on her dogtags, and she thrills at the way he commands her, before she takes them and turns, neatly setting them to the side.
Mako's a stickler for neatness, okay?
Moving back to him, she murmurs, this time reaching for his dogtags so that he has nowhere to back off to. ] You tossed my highlighter away. I should punish you for that.
[Neatly setting them aside is not the same thing as abandoning them wildly in passion but the papers are gone and Raleigh's going to count that as a win. Because now he can pull her into his lap, and keep her there with his arms around her waist.]
[ Mako wasn't born yesterday, you silly boy. But she's smiling and keeping him trapped with her. Crawling onto his lap and settling there, she loves the way he wraps his arms around her waist, and decides to push her advantage. Work is done for the night; that much is obvious. ]
[Raleigh hums under his breath, shaking his head softly. No, he will not take her to bed-- purely because that's what she asked and there's been enough of Mako calling the shots lately. She doesn't get to do that anymore tonight.
He dips his head down to her jaw, kissing that while still avoiding her mouth.]
[ It makes her tingle when you take control, Mr. Becket. Mako whines when it's obvious that she's not getting her way -- as always, but she's intrigued, nosing against him because she wants kisses, Raleigh! Kisses. ]
Yeah. [He agrees simply, ignoring the way she's nuzzling him in favor of cupping the back of her neck with his hand, making her stay still because he wants to kiss her neck right now. And so he's going to.]
[ Oh! Mako starts, surprised but delighted and more than just a little bit aroused -- yes, you have her full attention right now, Mr. Becket. She's still as a kitten, and she regards him curiously. ]
You know what I want, and you're not giving it. [ She gently runs her fingers over his chest. ] Are you waiting for me to behave?
[Smiling just a little against her neck, because he can just tell when her interest is completely and totally on him and it really didn't take as long to distract her from her work as he thought it might. Raleigh brushes his teeth along her skin, lightly, still teasing.]
[ She likes the sound of that, and there's a gleam of mischief in her eyes at this words. It always thrills her when he takes control like that, doesn't he know? Sure, Mako often takes charge in bed, but tonight it's different, it's new, and she gasps softly, her pulse quickening under the delightful, sensuous scrape of his teeth on her skin.
She grins, softly playful. ]
I would get on my knees for you anytime. Bite me, Mr. Becket.
[He didn't know that but he's learning. Raleigh's always been a quick learner, and picking up on what Mako likes and what makes her gasp and moan, well. It's basically a hobby.]
That sounds like an order. [He murmurs against her skin, holding his mouth there for a long moment, not kissing, not doing anything.]
I need some training, you see. [ Mako hums, completely unrepentant, but comes to regret it when he's not moving, and really intends to stick to his demands. Damn if he isn't sexy getting all alpha make with her.
Mako squirms against him, come on, kiss her already, do something, Mako wants lots of kisses and bites! Making a soft, impatient noise, she tries again. ]
[Raleigh smirks against her skin, a half second before he does it. He has the perfect spot in mind, a little patch of skin that he knows from practice and experience is extra sensitive and he starts worrying it between his teeth, fully intent on turning that noise into a gasp.]
[ Oh, Raleigh. He knows exactly what she wants when she wants it -- a product of the drift, perhaps, the lingering effects, or he just knows her that well. She doesn't care about that right now, especially when he feels so good and she inhales sharply, every nerve sensitive and eager, her fingers clutching his shoulder and digging in. ]
Raleigh leaves a nice little mark on her neck, loving the noises she's making and the way her fingers are practically leaving bruises of her own on his shoulder, from the way she's holding on to him. He loves Mako enough to let her do whatever she wants to him, whenever she wants to but he really likes having her totally like putty in his hands too.
He finishes it, still smirking but now it's more because he is sliding his hand along her hip, under her shirt.]
[ Raleigh is the most evil husband to ever walk the planet, really -- and she half-regrets letting him know all her sensitive spots, because look at the way he's exploiting them!
She gets her own, too, curling her fingers in his hair and continuing her grip on his shoulder, wiggling up closer to press up against him. She's leaning down to kiss at his jaw, and his throat, releasing his shoulder only to encourage his hand upwards, where she really wants him. ]
Now you're just fishing for it. [ She smiles at him, getting comfortable. ] I like what you do.
[Oh where did she want his hand? Raleigh's fingers graze the underside of her bra, before he follows the piece of fabric around to her back and the clasp there.]
It's been a while, I thought you forgot about me. [No, that's a lie but she has been working pretty consistently, late into the night lately and he just wants a night with her, no papers or blueprints or distractions and if he has to use what he knows about her weak spots to get it, then so be it.
Raleigh gets her bra undone and leans in to bite her lip gently.]
[ Oooh -- Mako makes a soft, pleased noise and wriggles in his arms. She's been working too hard and really, had made the mistake of neglecting her sweet, thoughtful husband, so maybe it was a good thing that he tossed her highlighter away after all?
She beams and nips back delicately. ] How could I ever forget about you? You're such an amazing kisser. [ And this is her, languidly enjoying his touch. ] Amidst other things.
