Atticus would move his arms and place them under Shira, lifting her up and hugging her tightly. He then went on to kiss her, yet again. This was something that he had longed for, for so long. He wanted to stay like that forever.
Atticus and Shira would continue to embrace and kiss one another, for what seemed like hours. Like always, it would be Atticus to pull away, before things got too far. Removing his lips from hers, Atticus leaned back and smiled, "Lets continue this another day." he told her, before kissing her once more on her cheek.
Shira stared at Atticus for a moment or two before sighing with a defeated laugh "Alright." she said before moving and sitting next to him on the couch.
As she moved and sat next to him on the couch, Atticus placed his hands on hers. "If you want to continue, I won't stop you." he told her, seeing how she was disappointed that he had stopped. "I mean, after all this time, we've only just kissed, but if you want to take it further, then I will too."
Shira smiled and shook her head. "Only if you are ready... it does take two after all." she said with a small laugh before resting her head on Atticus' shoulder.
Atticus looked away a bit as Shira placed her head on his shoulder. "Well, what if I am ready?" he asked her, as after everything the two had been through, it was only a matter of time before they took their relationship to the next level. Even though it has been Atticus that did not want things to go any further, but he was different now. He would no longer hold himself back.
Atticus would launch as well, "Well, I wasn't sure whether or not you were prepared to take it further, but seeing your expression, changed my mind." he said, before removing his hand from hers. "Of course that can still wait until another day."
Atticus raised a brow at Shira's response. Lifting his hand up, Atticus would place it on Shira's waist, "Are you sure?" he asked once more, wanting to make sure Shira was truly ready.
As Shira nodded, Atticus would move his mechanical arm towards Shira's waist and attempt to lift off her shirt, but stopped after seeing the metal of his arm, shine. Would this be alright, especially with his arm like this? Atticus was hesitant at first because of his arm, but shook it off and continued to remove her shirt.
