Young Americans (Indigo/Mari/Castiel/Markise)

[Marius Reed]

"You could come in and help me figure it all out," Mari said, almost feigning innocence again. "I mean, how do you put on a coat with long sleeves underneath?" Just wearing one with longish t-shirt sleeves could be a pain. He did kind of like the idea of being actually alone with Indigo. Castiel was busy with Markise, they'd be fine.

[Indigo Noble]

Indigo glanced back toward the doorway, but as far as he knew they were the only ones in the shop. He screwed up his courage, then nodded. A quick look at Mari, another glance at the door, and he slipped into the changing booth that Mari had just left.

[Marius Reed]

Mari grinned as he went in behind Indigo and closed the door behind them. He spared no time in removing his shirt to reveal his smooth, lean form. "I'm totally getting this scarf, by the way," he said, looping it around Indigo's neck. He had a couple of scarves already, but nothing that thick and warm. "So, Mr. Noble, what should I try on?" he asked, glancing toward the clothes.

[Indigo Noble]

"Um, I dunno." Indigo felt stupid again, and he was torn between doing something and just letting himself be frozen stiff. Stiff. There was a thought he didn't need. He might not have even looked up, but the weight of that scarf had gotten his attention, and then the expanse of skin Mari was showing had gotten his attention. He felt freer to look without Mari looking at him.

[Marius Reed]

Mari could feel Indigo's eyes on him. At first, he kept his attention on the various clothes, sorting some out and narrowing his choices, then he turned to Indigo again and reached for the scarf, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "I could just wear the scarf, show off a little," he said, reaching for the ends of it with both hands. He would definitely completely freeze if he went outside in just a scarf, but it would show off so much and it was a fun thought.

[Indigo Noble]

Indigo's gaze jumped up to Mari's eyes, and his lips parted a little at the thought. He should say something, he knew he should, but all that was bumbling around in his head was a bunch of lame. Mari was so close, and just the way he was holding the scarf as it wrapped around the back of his neck made Indigo a little nervous. No, nervous wasn't the word. It did put thoughts in his head, though.

[Marius Reed]

Mari wanted to kiss Indigo, but he really wanted Indigo to kiss him. "You know," he said in a lower, more intimate voice. His eyes still shown with that mischievous, teasing glint. "I think you're pretty cool, and I want to get to know you better." He looked forward to it in more ways than one and he hoped they would get to go out like this more often.

[Indigo Noble]

It was a little harder to breathe than it should have been. Indigo tried to tell himself that it was the close quarters, it was the air in the booth, but he only partly believed it. How long before he could admit things to himself? He pulled a slow breath, but couldn't manage to choke out any words and ended up just nodding.

[Marius Reed]

Mari's eyes drifted over Indigo's face and though he didn't give in just yet, he wet his lips before finding Indigo's eyes. "You know, I think it'd be pretty cool if you kissed me," he said. And Castiel would totally know when they came out of the booth, but he didn't really care. Castiel already knew about them, anyway.

[Indigo Noble]

Indigo's breath caught entirely at that. It'd be pretty cool if you kissed me. Yes. He was thinking about it anyway, wasn't he? Back in the part of his mind that he hardly listened to? His gaze had flickered down, and he let it stick there for just a moment before he moved forward. His eyes closed as he pressed his lips to Mari's and then pressed farther for more contact. His hands curved around Mari's waist.

[Marius Reed]

Mari's lips curved just before Indigo's met them and it only took a moment for him to decide to slip an arm around Indigo's neck. His other hand hovered on Indigo's upper arm. He loved being kissed way too much, it made him feel so good, even if he knew they couldn't have the same ending they'd had in the common room. Well, that was a sacrifice he was willing to make.

[Indigo Noble]

Maybe aggressive wasn't the right word, but Indigo was a little more sure of himself than he'd been before. He had now had a total of four kisses, and the worry that he'd mess something up or do something horribly wrong had shrunk. Mari liked this, and he liked this, he liked the warmth, the press of lips, the motions of their mouths exploring each other. Maybe a little low sound of pleasure rolled up from his chest, but he hardly noticed.

[Marius Reed]

Mari really liked that sound, just more proof that Indigo was enjoying himself. Like he needed more. Of course, he was a tad annoyed with all of Indigo's layers, which kept him from feeling much of anything of the guy hidden beneath. The fingers of one hand slipped beneath the scarf, beneath the first layer, and the second, searching out wonderfully warm skin.

[Indigo Noble]

Indigo didn't have the problem that Mari had, and he took advantage of it. His fingers spread to take in more skin, to slide up Mari's back as he deepened the kiss. He didn't know how to stop and at this point he didn't care. It didn't matter where they were, it only mattered that he got to touch and taste.

[Marius Reed]

It was too soon to stop, not that Mari really wanted to, anyway. He loved how it felt to have Indigo touching him so much. For just a moment, he was torn. He wanted badly to return the contact but that would take so long, what with Indigo's fifteen layers of clothes and all. Eventually, he made a decision, a compromise, and allowed his lips to migrate to the corner of Indigo's mouth, and then to his jaw and neck.
