Freya had poked the fork back in, but she left it where it was when Kettil spoke. Her eyes lifted to stare at him, before she let out a long, content sigh. She moved the bowl away and leaned forward, pressing her forehead against his. Beads and bracelets could wait; this moment was theirs.
"I think it's sweet when yeh fuss and tries teh protects me. Yeh knows that?" She grinned softly, and brushed her lips against his. "Never stop."
Kettil had always taken care of her. He'd worried about her, made sure he was kept up to date on her life, and knew every facet of her even as a friend. But it was easier to feel appreciative about someone so loyal and gentle as Kettil, when that person was yours.

His heart skipped a beat for a moment as suddenly her face was close to his and he just stared at her with a small smile, "I don't plan on stoppin', Princess," he said quietly against her lips as they brushed over his. Kettil moved forward a bit more and kissed her, a quick but sweet kiss on the lips.
It was such a different relationship he had with her now and he was enjoying it thus far, even if at first things were a bit hectic. The dust had settled and things were looking hopeful.

Kettil kissed her. Freya thought about those three words, and what they meant, and her grin turned giddy and silly. Everything was changing, including their relationship. But in the end, when she cherished each moment individually, she knew this moment was special. She clung to it, reaching out to sit on his lap and put her arms around his neck. It made her seem taller than him, and she looked down at the boil in her arms.
Her best friend. Her boilfriend. Her rock.
"I feels like I'm stealings yeh from the world." Freya whispered conspiratorally. "Are yeh sures yeh don't wants teh tries datings around before settlings with me? Yehr too pretty teh just settle."
She kissed his nose, and unsheathed her teeth, biting down on the tip gently.

Finished bracelet fell from his fingertips as he just let her crawl onto his lap and his arms moved to wrap around her slender waist as his head tilted up to stare at her with a bit of a grin tugging at the corner of his lips. Kettil seemed to mull over his words before he only shrugged a bit, "Mm, nah, I'm happy just bein' with you, I don't think I can find anyone else that I'm half as comfortable with," he said quietly.
Certainly he'd take a ghoul out, show her a good time, but it was always just that: an outing. A moment in time with a ghoul and then that was that. Lark had been the only other ghoul he'd dated on a exclusive level. Now there was Freya.
His nose scrunched a bit as she bit on it, "You're the ghoul I want."

That was the right answer.
"Mm. Well. That's good." She tried to hide the shy and flattered smile he coaxed out of her, but her cheeks felt hot, and she knew she wasn't going to be able to hide a thing.
"Hooter?" Freya's voice hushed, quiet and serious. Her forehead pressed against his once more, and her eyes closed as she tried very intently to focus.
"Feels like my heart's goings teh come out of my chest." She chuckled breathlessly. Her heartbeat fluttered and stuttered, before racing wildly. It was so hard to concentrate, to say the things she felt she needed to say. She swayed in his arms, and leaned against him.
"Yeh makes me feels funny."

The closeness was nice, warm and comforting. Even as he watched her expressions and the blush bloom over her face he didn't tease her about it as much as he just let her live through each moment and simply enjoyed the affect he had on her now.
"I feel it too," he murmured softly quietly, it was hard to focus on things when she was this close, it made his mind go a bit hazy and strange. "I almost tried to steal you away once," he said softly, his admission was a quiet one, "but you were happy then. Happy with who you were with."
"..I let it be even though I wanted to be the one that made you that happy." He said, it was as if he was admitting a sin.

A small, helpless giggle escaped her at his admission. She wondered if he thought he'd kept his feelings a secret all this time, and was truly only now admitting himself to her. If so, he was adorably naive.
But she guessed otherwise.
"I know." She murmured so quietly, the breath rushing against his skin was as loud as her voice. "I was happy." Kettil had made the right choice, when he'd decided to be just friends. Freya was in love with Herryk. Herryk had made her believe in love again. He'd given her everything she ever wanted, and she thought that was forever. But then, suddenly, the two of them had crumbled like a house of cards.
"And I'm happy now." Her head bent to the side, and her cheek brushed against his. His skin felt rough against her own, like a boil's should. Her lips stopped at his ear, and her words turned to whispers. "Yeh makes me happy, 'jika."

He blushed a little and smiled his arms tightening around her as if afraid she was going to just up and leave him suddenly or perhaps he just wanted to feel her just a smidgeon closer to him. His eyes fluttered closed for the time being simply enjoying her warmth against him and the feel of her skin brushing over his, the feel of the breath as it whispered over his skin.
It was as if he was drowning in the most wonderful way he could think of.
"You make me happy, too," he murmured softly.

Those words made her grin so wide that it hurt. She nearly bounced with excitement, but he was holding her tight enough to keep her from moving, so she just jittered in his arms. She pulled her face away so she could look down at him again, and her grin turned cheeky. "Tells me something. I never asks this before, because I knows it was somethings that might have made yeh sad. But I thinks now.. now I can ask without it being bad." She touched his lips with her pointer fingertip, brushing against them. "When yeh first sees me on groanspring. Why did yeh reach out teh me? I remember once yeh says it was because I seems interesting, but that answer is borings and now I wants a better one."
Shameless.

Her energetic movements didn't seem to encouraging to make him let her go as he just held on to her and smirked a little even as she began to put a new question to him as her fingertip trailed along his lips which only served to have him open his mouth and lightly nom at her trailing finger while it was there.
Kettil had to honestly think for a moment or two, "I remember thinkin', that you looked beautiful," he admitted openly, "and then I remember thinkin' about tryin' t'get a date with ya," he shifted his shoulders a bit grinning slightly, "I just remember wanting to be by yer side right away."

Freya pulled her finger away when he nommed it, and her hand tapped against his lips, smacking them with a playful slap. She shifted to the side so she could sit comfortably in his arms, and reached down underneath her. Her hands forced his legs apart, and she sank down until her butt was on the floor. Now, she was the right height to put her head on his shoulder. She could have asked him to move.. but there was no fun in that.
Hearing the truth about his first thoughts of her were exactly what she'd hoped he'd say. Though his last words, and the sweetness suffused within them, made her poor heart race again.
"I thinks.. maybe I am lucky, for how things turned out." A surprising reaction, until she continued. "When I first talks to yeh, and I sees yeh on my groansprings, I thought yeh looked like every other handsome boil that tries teh gets teh knows me just teh gets in my pants. I didn't knows if I trusts yeh at first, and if we had dated, I probably would have broken yehr heart." She patted his chest softly and left her hand pressed against it. "It wasn't until yeh decides yeh wanted teh spends time with me, even though yeh knows I was off limits, that I realized yehr special. I had a hard time trusting anyone."
It was one of a million demons she'd lost, and had Herryk to thank for it.
"So glad I can trusts yeh teh protects my virtue." This was said with dripping sarcasm, for even Freya did not have the acting skills to pretend to be an innocent.

The playful slap was met with him lightly snapping his teeth at her retreating hand and a laugh. As she forced his legs apart he adjusted to suit her needs rather contently. As long as she was comfortable that was all that mattered.
Kettil listened to her as she spoke smiling a little bit and then laughing at her sarcasm dripping end comment he just shook his head before he spoke up, "If that was how things ended up I guess I woulda made my peace with it and moved on but not once would I have tried to get in your pants," he said simply and quietly, "I just don't work that way. That line of thinkin' didn't honestly happen until much later and even then I ain't the type to just get it and run," he said softly blushing slightly.
"I treat ya with respect, like mom and dad taught me to treat a ghoul, even if it might not seem that way much of the time," he laughed slightly.

"That line of thinkings." Freya snickered, pinching him right in the chest to tease him about it. But his explanations were sweet. She'd heard them before, more times than Kettil could have ever guessed. She'd heard every line in the book, in fact. But the one concerning parents teaching a boil how to treat a ghoul.. she was pretty sure it was written in a book of lines, somewhere. She stopped believing it a long, long time ago.
She believed every word Kettil ever said.
"Whatchyeh means might not seems that way? I thinks yehr a proper gentlemans. I'm sittings in yehr lap right now and yehr not demandings my top off. That's pretty impressive."
She tried to keep a straight face.

Sad thing about the book of lines - Kettil didn't know them, he was too naive for the whole feeding ghouls lines thing other than telling them, very honestly, that he thought they were pretty and asking them if they wanted to go out with him somewhere. Thus when Kettil told Freya these things he honestly meant them with every fiber of his soul.
His eyes moved to stare at the ceiling and laughed, "Maybe you forgot how much I tease ya or the last couple of times we caused injury to each other just goofin' around," he shrugged a bit.

"I forgets nothing!" She demanded, yelping it much like a harpy. "I says yehr a gentlemans and yeh agrees with me or I bites yeh! This is not negotiables!" She beared her teeth at him, growling pathetically. "And those were accidents.. they has no bearings on this matter. What really matters here, is yeh learns somethings every boil should learn at some point or other. This, I thinks, is as good a time as any."
She leaned in, and kissed his lips, punctuating each word with a kiss.
"Freya. Is. Always. Right."
