     he’s torn IN HALF doomed to walk a fine line between repression and giving into his senses completely   (  jaq & atton , apathy & atonement , walking away & giving into her  ) .    maybe he’ll never understand her and the convoluted code she clings to , but he RESPECTS her boundaries , would never push her to a place she’d be uncomfortable with . trust is the most the important foundation of whatever it is they’ve got going , he’s not stupid enough to break that so easily . still the kiss had been real enough — unchecked and lacking in restraint . even now he can tell she’s fighting something within her , waging war with conflicting emotions just as he is . maybe a little PUSH is what she needs . maybe she even wants him to , placing collision in his hands .
        there’s a feeling that transcends the usual lust , buried DEEP beneath the haze her lips have made around his mind . it’s rooted someplace unfamiliar , unused ; too complex to define , too dangerous to put a name on . but it’s enough to know that one measly kiss on the floor of the cargo hold isn’t going to get the blasted woman out of his system . dark eyes transfix on the green of her own , the flush of her cheeks , smooth curvature of her mouth . it hadn’t been enough , hadn’t nearly been enough , and really he should know by now that it NEVER would be . he’s not a man so easily satisfied . or placated .

        he sits up slowly , follows her motion , both hands raise in a gesture of surrender , but ultimately UNREPENTANT . she’s saying a whole lot of nothing , mouth moving , evading a confrontation he’s decidedly postponed . sure , he could just brush it off with a way to kick me while i’m down , and go drown the rest of his troubles with some whiskey in the cockpit . but he DOESN’T . the last faltering grip on his self control slips as he moves his hands to cup her face , hovering DANGEROUSLY just above her mouth .     ❝  mmm hmmm .  ❞     a hum , non-committal , and consequences be damned , he’s kissing her again , purposeful and more insistent this time , lips hard and searing . a hand drops from her cheek , drags along her back and then to the ground behind her , supporting himself as he leans in further , a playful nudge from his mind to her own as if to say ‘ try and walk away from this one ‘ and space , he hopes she doesn’t .

             There was something strange within their minds, a self destruction that took form in the eyes that only saw a striving BEAUTY. She kicked herself, she was slipping from the cautious grips of control he had on herself, on those stupid emotions that tugged at her heart, to be so reckless to allow herself to become so VULNERABLE. The trust the redhead dared to settle into the pilot was something that developed so easily over such an amount of time. Lingering eyes and wandering thoughts were the very fabric of their relationship ——– hesitated touch, meaningful curls of their lips. How WONDERFUL it felt to tiptoe that line of such a magnetic pull. He was tugging at her, pushing her to simply take the stupid LEAP of faith. 
            She was watching him, and there was a sensation that dug into her deeper than any sharp blade. The very painful truth came to her and it was made very visible by his own touch. Her chin lifted in his hands, making their very gaze undivided. No matter how much a part of her wanted to pull —– her own reckless CRAVING for him would render her frozen, only for him to melt her with his very burning gaze.
            And she was falling —– back, back, back —- and it was almost every inhale was HIM, every sensation was HIM. LET GO, TIDREEN. Such celibacy couldn’t contain the acceptance and enjoyment from the submission she laid against his dominating persistence. They knew this was coming, it was only a matter of time. Lips moved with the others, a lost grunt seeping from her as her entire petite form had altered, moving with him as if they’d become one steady and synchronized force of the same goals. Thin fingers move to keep a hanging grip on the back of his neck, tangling into the darkened strands of his hair. Oh if only the Jedi Council could see her NOW. She pushed into him, unarmed, unbarrred ——— He’d won. She was VULNERABLE.
           This wasn’t about a battle for control anymore, this was a victory of REALIZATION and ADMITTANCE to the very uncontrollable hunger they possessed for one another. STARS, and this was the reward. How could she be so SILLY to run from this very relief from loneliness? 
            And she BREATHED. For once, she was content. Sliding onto her own backside, her lips pried from him from circumstance —- and she SMILED. Vibrant greens persisted shut for just another moment as if stuck in a beautiful daydream. Her nose danced across his, stuck in a naive pull to just stay close to him. He’s going to get ADDICTING. She’s BREATHLESS, inching for more, and her own innocent lure to DARE once again.
