"If my father was home he would be amore annoyed at my bringing you than my piercings." He said looking down at the tea and back up to her. "He is away though so your are right." He said with a smirk. "Maybe my mother will go easy on me."
Sliding a DVD out of the case he opened the DVD player and slid it in. As it began to load he stood to grab some cushions and throw them onto the bed to give the illusion of a sofa.
"I hope you like comedies." He said sitting on the low bed and leaning back against the cushions. Smiling at her he patted the space next to him and smiled. "Take a seat. Unless you want to get a numb backside on the carpet."

Obie promptly abandoned the rug to crawl over to the spot next to him at his invitation and settled herself against the cushions, her legs stretched out before her and crossed at the ankle. "A comedy sounds perfect right now," she smiled over at him.
She was sitting close to him. Probably closer than was necessary, but she couldn't help it. She found herself drawn to him more and more with each meeting and she could feel boundaries slowly starting to melt away. She watched the beginning of the movie for a moment, then looked over at him again.
"Why would your father be annoyed at you for bringing me to their home?" she asked.

Ra smiled and shfted a little closer as she got comfortable. He wasn't surewy but it seemed natural, just as it did to slide his arm around her shoulder just so he could be closer.
"Because he will assume there is something between us. Not that there is a problem with that, he just doesn't want me getting too attatched to non Iranian and non muslim girls. He is very traditional."
He shrugged and kept his eyes half on the movie.
"I love him but sometimes he can be stupid you know. This maybe a stupid question but, does your father care who you date or eventually marry?"

A couple of butterflies did some somersaults in her stomach as he shifted closer to her and slipped his around around her shoulders. She leaned into his side and glanced between him and the movie as he answered her. His question to her drew a soft snort of laughter from her and she turned her head fully towards the TV as she rested it gently against his.
"Hm... that could be a tricky question. My parents are fickle about the things they will obsess over when it comes to me. Honestly, I want to say no, but I have a feeling that if they just didn't like the guy they would make things difficult. Does that answer your question?" she asked, not sure if she was making sense at all.

Ra nodded and rubbed her shoulder absently.
"It makes sense, especially with what you have told me about them. It makes me angry." He said softly as he watched the TV. He was happy to have her leaning against him, such simple contact made him feel so at ease.
"My father knows I will choose who I want though. I have my mother's stubborn streak." He smiled and slipped into silence to watch the movie.

Obie smiled softly when he said her parents made him angry. It seemed silly, but he always seemed to know just the right thing to say. As they fell into one of their warm silences, she kept her eyes on the TV, but found her mind wandering. The previous days slowly scrolled through her mind and she realized how perfectly everything had fallen into place despite the fact that both of them had expressed that they weren't wanting relationships at the moment.
"Ra... are you comfortable with the way things are developing between us?" she asked softly, dropping her eyes away from the TV down to her outstretched legs.

And there it was, the question he had wanted to ask. Almost. He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. He wasn't sure what she wanted to hear so he had to give his honest opinion.
"You mean ... thet we seem to be headed for what both of us said we didn't want?" He asked removing his arm and moving to sit facing her. "I'll admit, yesterday I was aprehensive. But now, it sounds cheesy but I feel so warm and happy. I thought I loved Chii, but with her I was always nervous and unsure. What we have seems so much more ... right. So I suppose yes I am happy with the way things are developing. How about you?" He asked rather nervously. "Are you happy with all this, and be honest."

"When have I ever given you anything but?" she asked with a bit of a coy smirk when he asked her to be honest. She was kinda sad that he had pulled away to face her, but she liked being able to see his face during this discussion. Obie turned her midnight eyes up to his and gave him a soft smile.
"Honestly, the things that I've felt when I'm around you, especially in the last few days, I've never felt before and I don't want to stop feeling them either," she said, holding his eyes with hers. After a moment, she dropped her eyes down to her lap before continuing.
"But... I'm still not sure if I'm ready for another relationship. The things that I went through with Thanatos were very difficult, and though I know you are nothing like him, a part of me is still scared that things will go wrong again. That I'll start to let my fears rule me again and start to push you away. And..." she paused and looked back up into his eyes. "And I don't want to push you away," she said softly. "But yes, I am happy with the way things are developing between us."

Ra listened to her and nodded, though he wasn't really following what she wanted.
"Let me get this right .... you don't want a relationship but you don't?" He asked tipping his head to one side. "I don't quite understand. I mean we can take things very, very slow. I have no problems with that at all. But I can't handle being messed around so ... if what you want is casual then maybe we should forget what happened."
As he spoke he wasn't sure he was making sense. Her contradictions confused him greatly.

Obie blinked at his confusion for a moment, then shifted to sit facing him directly, kneeling on her knees. Already she was letting her fear start to rule her. But things were too right this time to just sit back and watch it all unwind again and she really didn't want to turn back now and forget everything that they had already shared. Smiling softly, she placed her hands on either side of his face and looked directly and unwaveringly into his grey eyes.
"I don't want casual and one thing you can be sure of, I won't play games with you," she said softly. "I want this. I want to keep feeling this incredible happiness that I've never felt before and I think being with you, no matter how slow or fast we go, is the only way that I'll be able to. I only ever feel this way when I'm with you."

Ra was blown away by her words. They gave him a feeling he had never experienced before and he did not recognise. An intense warmth. He smiled broadly and reached up to brush a strand of hair from her face.
"Scarlett said to me the other day when I returned from our walk, she said I seemed different, free." He paused for a moment taking in her deep blue eyes. "I thought about it and I agree, I feel so free when I'm with you." He couldn't really think of much more to say, they were both well aware of their feelings for one another and the sheer intensity of those feelings.
Smiling warmly he leant forwards and placed a soft kiss on her lips like the day before. That said more than any rambling he could come out with.

Obie smiled warmly at his words and slowly slid her hands back, her fingers sliding easily into his soft, dark hair as he leaned forward. She welcomed the kiss like she had the day before and her heart skipped a beat at the intensity of the feelings that flooded through her. Slowly and gently tightening her hold on his hair, she began to deepen the kiss, sighing softly as her lips melted against his.

Sighing softly Ra pulled her closer towards him matching her intensity and upping it a little more. As he kissed her he still could not get over how right it all felt, and as they kissed it was as though nothing or anyone else existed. Sliding a hand down her spine to the small of her back he allowed the feeling of warmth and happiness to crash over him. It was so rare a feeling joy, contentment.
With that thought he gripped her tightly against him so as not to let those feelings slip away from him.

Obie would be lying if she said she was not surprised by the intensity with which Ra returned her affections.
Slipping her arms around his neck she welcomed the strength and security of his arms pressing her against him. Shifting her body without breaking the kiss, she turned to slip easily into his lap. She had spent her whole life shutting herself off from the world, keeping herself from feeling. She had thought Thanatos had freed her, but she had been terribly mistaken. Moaning softly, she eased the hunger out of her kisses and allowed herself to enjoy each new sensation that washed over her. Slowly, she began to move her lips away from his, down across his jaw, to his neck, one hand running back up into his hair again.

Ra closed his eyes and moaned lightly as she broke away from his lips. The shift of her attentions was more than welcome and caused him to ease his grip a little. Obie was going not going to dissapear. Smiling he allowed his hand to slide down from her back to her thin waist and over the generous curve of her hips. She really did have a gorgeous figure.
Holding her to him he eased himself back slowly so that he was lying with her on top of him. Much more comfotable. Gently he slipped his hand back up under her top a little to lightly caress the soft, smooth skin of her hips as she kissed his neck.
