Im Giggling In Public And Its YOUR Fault /lh - Tumblr Posts

Task failed successfully

Rose swiped through her new contacts and scanned the Mirror chamber. It was simple, she was just going to ask Jack for his number. It was a completely normal, friendly gesture; she'd already gotten Ace and Deuce's. She'd like to think they were friends despite never having voiced it. She was one of the few people he voluntarily went near and talked to. Maybe she should leave the ball in his court, though? Yeah, she'll just give him her number, that way he can decide what he wants to do. Totally friendly.

Steeling herself, she caught sight of him, silver hair and ears, towering over the rest of the room.

"Jack!" She called his name, pushing through the restless students eager to get home for the holidays. His ears twitched and he turned back to her, stopping just in front of the portal that the Dark Mirror had conjured for him.

"Just in time!" She laughed, waving at him as she approached. "I have something for you!"

Oh gosh, he was adorable. His ears swiveled toward her and his tail wagged lightly, his face turning red. Damn, she hoped she wasn't misreading these signs. The way he seemed to perk up when he noticed her, the pretty little blush, not to mention the way his tail wagged (despite how he denied it).

"Rose?"

Ooh, she loved the way he said her name. His deep, rumbly voice, the way his lips formed the letters... sheesh, when did she start thinking in romance novel? He certainly had pretty lips though, that's for sure. Thin but full. Probably warm and soft. She was staring now, look away! She was doing something! ... She couldn't remember what now.

When did she get this close to him? She had something to do! Something...

"I... I have something... to give you." She muttered, now only inches from him. He was even brighter red than before, but he wasn't pushing her away. Did he...?

Her hands landed on his chest. He was warm. "Rose? W-What exactly are you giving me?" His ears were forward and she could see his tail wagging fast in her peripheral vision. Did he want this too? He wasn't pushing her away, he...

She was on her tiptoes, her nose brushing his. He was standing completely still, panting slightly. She'd come this close, no way was she chickening out now. She pressed her lips to his.

The noise of the bustling boys seemed to die out around them, her awareness of the world around her falling just to them. The feeling of him against her, warm and solid. His hands had drifted to her waist and back, pulling her flush against him.

She had no idea what she was doing, and she was fairly certain he didn't either. She moved her mouth against his, brushing her tongue along his lips. He responded in kind. It was clunky and sloppy, and their teeth were knocking together, but it wasn't unpleasant. She definitely didn't want to stop.

A wolf whistle (hah) rang out from somewhere in the hall and all at once the world resumed around them. Rose almost fainted from the speed at which blood rushed to her face. "Right! Have a good holiday, say hi to the fam for me, I'm gonna go light that bitch on fire!"

Jack opened his mouth to say something, his own face resembling a tomato, but she was already speed walking away in the direction of the whistle. Whoever did that better already be gone or they were eating embers.

Shit. She didn't give him her number. She turned back around, but she didn't see him where he was before. Dammit.

Now she was going to have to go the whole break with nothing but that moment on repeat in her mind.
