[After weeks apart, that single kiss brings memories flooding back— thoughts that were never buried too deeply to begin with, scenes that he's revisited time and time again, now drawn back to the surface by something other than his inclination to torment himself with what he can no longer have. Even as she pulls away, he chases; she dips her head and he moves his hand to gently rest at the back of her neck, his hold on her hand over his chest tightening slightly.]
You can.
[Of course, he knows why she insists otherwise— she thinks that she shouldn't, that they should stay far away from one another, and she may even be right, even if he can't bring himself to agree with it. He dips his own head to try and reach her, his grasp dropping just a hair to curl around her wrist and draw her close once again.
For a moment, she'd been lost in that kiss right along with him. None of this is for a lack of wanting on either side.
He dares to steal another, insistent as the kiss before, his pirate heart unwilling to give up treasure so easily. Pirates take, take, take, and don't walk away from something they know to be truly valuable.]
I won't say anything else you don't want to hear.
[Kissing isn't against any of the rules she'd loosely set out beforehand, technically speaking, though he knows that in this moment, he's playing a very dangerous game.]
