[Which is not a lie; she herself doesn't always believe it, though. She's brave now, though. Maybe because she's still tired or still running off the adrenaline from the weekend. Verity is very pretty, even in the morning with her morning breath and stupid, pretty eyes.
I'm so not straight, she thinks and scoots in close. It could be totally, really weird but -- Jem presses her lips to Verity's anyway. Because fuck it; life is short and all that. It's not the romantic moment one might expect from someone who has just admitted she's thought about sleeping with her room mate. But it's nice, if not a little chaste. Treading the waters, so to speak.]
[Brave is a fitting word since spontaneously kissing your roommate probably isn't the right course of action. But if it's wrong, hardly either of the girls seem to really care.
Everything's been such a wild affair since she left, since she came back, and Verity just wants something simple for once that doesn't delve into the realm of complicated realities, disappearing best friends, and complex incentives. Right here, it's just a kiss, sweet and welcoming lips from a friend who hasn't complicated her life, not even now while their brushing mouths without a second thought.
It's just nice, the softness of it the best part while she still isn't fully awake this morning, and yes, she likes it. Expressing as such with fingers gently trailing along Jem's jaw to tip her chin up.]
[Up goes her chin and Jem is smiling, relaxed and pleased that Verity doesn't pull away. It's a simple thing, lazy and nice after her weekend.
She touches just the edge of Verity's jaw lightly, tilting her head more comfortably. She smooths back red hair behind an ear and then brushes her thumb against Verity's cheek. She breaks away with a cheeky smile, eyes half lidded. ]
[Whatever the purpose of any of this is, it doesn't take much for her to decide that everything about kissing Jem is nice. Even if it's the course of action take by a still drowsy Verity Willis, more awake Verity Willis probably won't have any regrets on the matter.
Now if only other things in her life could be as simple as something like this.
She snickers softly, forehead dipping slightly against the other's, smile hardly leaving her face even as she pressing her lips together with a soft hum.] Oh, sorry. Next time I'll be sure to punch your face. Would that be a more appropriate reaction?
[It's a simple kind of intimacy, lying with her head pressed to Verity's, their arms almost touching and the room quiet. It's safe. It's uncomplicated. ]
Or you could kiss me again. You look you'd be scary looking if you're stern.
[She snorts into laughter, ducking her head at the mention of a scary-looking Verity, because well, she certainly can be when she's upset (ask Loki, he's a pro at knowing what that expression looks like).]
I guess I could. But it might be too tempting to start making a habit of it. [It's good to be honest, right?
And gazing down at light eyes, it certainly already is in the realm of tempting, thumb trailing over the curve of a cheek before she leans in again, lips grazing once more for another gentle kiss.]
[There's no sign of protest. Jem tilts her head to allow it; she smiles, lingers with a kiss of her own, just a second longer. This is nice; it's been a long, long time since Jem's had a friend. It's been longer since she had a friend like Verity, who makes her feel like she can talk about anything and not have to lie about it.
It feels easy and uncomplicated.
She hmm's softly and shifts, head resting back on a pillow. ] I wouldn't mind if you made a habit of it.
