Fly Me To The Moon - RP for iheartscience

[justknowthatlook]

This was probably one of the craziest things Eva Brooks had ever done. She decided that hey - she deserved a vacation from her thesis on problems in the foster care system and what better way to escape the hectic mess that was her life than by flying out to Smallville, Kansas? Into the farmland and the company of a tall, dark, handsome and amazingly sweet guy. Yeah, this was totally worth the flight.

As the car rolled up on the Kent farm, Eva took a moment to let out a "wow" before paying the driver and getting out, suitcase in hand. She'd drop that at her motel later, right now she was way too excited to go anywhere else. Shifting her suitcase she let it set on the lawn a few feet from the house and went up to knock on the door. Eva knew nothing about horseback riding, so she didn't know how to dress either and as a result ended up in jeans, a pink tank top, and brown sweater over it, feet in brown hightops.

Taking a deep breath she lifted a hand and knocked on the door.

There isn't much to do with pity in this situation. Nik's politely brushed off enough of his sisters' friends or people on campus to know how to do so without ruining anyone's day. And he is attracted, but good luck getting a Kent to display those feelings unless they know for sure that bruising feelings won't be an option on either side.

"Eva," he begins, then stops and looks down at her for a moment -- noting the panicked heart rate, and the embarrassment in her gaze. Then he leans forward, gently pressing his lips against hers, though there is a sense that he'll back off if she says 'No' at any time.

The second kiss catches her off-guard and she hesitates for a moment to gather herself before propping up on her tiptoes to kiss him back - slowly, sweetly while a hand comes to rest on his chest.

It's an incredibly short kiss -- again, male Kents aren't known for allowing emotions to control their actions, but it is firm. What the men of his family are known for is the potency of said kisses. He pulls away less than a minute later, a hand reaching up to brush hair out of her face.

"Hi."

[sorella-italia.livejournal.com]

Eva could honestly say she'd never been kissed like that before, and the word "breathless" came to mind for how she reacted. Her eyes slowly opened and she smiled at Nik in a daze.

"Hi yourself, cowboy."

[iheartscience.livejournal.com]

"Hi." Yes, it's kind of a repeat, but Nik is blushing and really isn't sure what else to say. After a moment he does ease back a little, an automatic response to getting to close to a lady (which is more manners than anything else) and the beginnings of a shy smile.

"You okay?"

[sorella-italia.livejournal.com]

"You're so cute when you blush." She grinned, brushing a thumb across his cheek.

That's just going to make it work. He tries to combat this by lowering his gaze - my, isn't the ground interesting. It's a near thing, but he manages not to scuff at the ground with his boot heel.

"I'm not."

[sorella-italia.livejournal.com]

"Oh, I totally beg to differ, Nik." She smirked and ducked to catch his gaze, grunting when she accidentally bumped heads with him. "Ow..."

[iheartscience.livejournal.com]

Er, that's not good. His hands lift immediately to cradle her face, eyes narrowed to check for damage or anything out of the ordinary. "Are you alright, Eva?"

[sorella-italia.livejournal.com]

"Aside from makin' a total idiot outta myself again... yeah." She blushed brightly and looked at him sheepishly. "Sorry."

[iheartscience.livejournal.com]

"It's kind of beginning to grow on me." There's a smile - tiny but there. "We have to find you a plastic bubble to live in."

[sorella-italia.livejournal.com]

"I'm totally not a huge klutz, I swear. It's always been my sister's thing. But around you I kinda-- turn into a gushing idiot." She admitted, ducking her head to blush this time.

[iheartscience.livejournal.com]

"I'm sorry. Is this something I can fix?" Yes, he's completely serious, and possibly a little worried now.

[sorella-italia.livejournal.com]

"N-No, not really." She looked up, smiling slightly. "Guess I didn't realize how much my last relationship affected me til now."

[iheartscience.livejournal.com]

"I'm sorry." Get used to that, Eva. Around Nik, it's almost an art form. "Did I do something wrong?"

[sorella-italia.livejournal.com]

At this, she blinked. "No. You didn't do anythin' wrong. It's uh, me."
