[ Well then. Naturally, the first place he'll check is her bedroom. There's a good bit of feeling his way, and maybe a slight bit of swearing when he stubs his toe against one of the stairs. Finally, he reaches it and pushes the door open. ]
[ Says Gansey, dubiously, while trying to remember the layout of this room. He'd lived here himself for a month before Blue arrived, after all. He ought to know where the furniture is. Or at least where it was, barring the idea that she might have moved something.
His memory fails him. He ends up surging forward, hands splayed to either side, until he trips over the bed and ends up crashing onto it.
And onto Blue. He swears again, and quickly scrambles up to his knees. ]
Christ! This was all a lot more attractive in my head.
[ Suddenly there's a laughing, giggling Blue Sargent beside him. Gansey laughs too, and takes the opportunity to hook his arm around her waist. ]
You missed.
[ He says unnecessarily. Then he leans in, following her touch, and just about manages to catch the corner of her lips. A little thrill goes through him. After so long where he wasn't allowed, doing this now still feels forbidden and wonderful to Gansey. Messily, he attaches his lips to hers, kissing her properly. ]
[ She leans back on the bed and the pillows, still grinning as he kisses her. It's still messy, trying to find each other properly in the dark. She kisses his upper lip and laughs more as she takes his face in her hands. She kisses him more fully and sighs as she settles on the bed. ]
[ She catches him, and this time there's no mistaking it. He feels her lips fully close on his, and instinctively, his arm pulls her in. Nudging against her nose, he lets his eyes close, since he can't see anything anyway. He kisses her again, softly this time. ]
Much better. We got there in the end.
[ A little pause, while he settles with her. And then: ]
[ She sighs as they finally settle into a more comfortable position. It's so dark around them that she can't really see him. But she can feel him. She can still taste him. She can smell that mint... ]
My knees fine now. [ Her smile can be heard even in the darkness. ]
But if you still want to kiss it, I'm open to the possibility.
[ His answer is to kiss her again. He gets the corner of her mouth,
and quickly adjusts to kiss her fully on the lips. ]
I spent long enough not kissing you, Jane. I'm making up for lost time.
[ His hand slides down, until he finds her thigh. His heart skips
several beats when he realises what he's touching, but he behaves himself,
and shifts until he can hook the back of her knee instead. He lifts it
gently while he moves, and then carefully kisses the very tip of her
kneecap. Several more kisses follow, just for good measure. ]

Gansey.
You can come in. [ She's not getting off the bed to stub her own toe! ]

She leans in to try to kiss his cheek as he sits up, but in the dark she misses and kisses his nose. ]
Woops.
