AU week with Eric

[thewidewideworld]

{From here}

Sin leads Eric through a door and then another, and up a narrow flight of stairs that seem to be hidden in the walls. To another door that looks like it should be locked but isn't. (Or isn't locked anymore.)

The journey leads them into the roof and a flat section of tiles with a view out over the lake, protected from the breeze by chimneys.

He slides Sin down to sit on the level ground and takes hold of his chin with strong fingers, tipping his head back a little.
Gauging his reaction.

[thewidewideworld]

It's a long moment before Sin comes back to himself enough to lean into Eric's hold on him. He blinks and blinks again, letting out a slow sigh. "Wow."

[onceaviking]

Eric licks his lips.

"Happy?"

He certainly smells that way.

[thewidewideworld]

"Oddly satisfied." Sin hums, resting his head on Eric's broad chest. "That was... certainly a new experience. You don't let yourself do that very often, do you?"

[onceaviking]

"No," Eric murmurs.
"It is very tempting to keep going. Till the end."

[thewidewideworld]

"I'd rather you didn't." Sin giggles, still a little high. "I'm rather attached to my life."

[onceaviking]

Eric rumbles in reply and settles down on the ground, his long legs stretched out.
"I have to head inside in a little bit," he says.

[thewidewideworld]

"I understand." Sin nods. "Go whenever you're ready and perhaps we'll see each other again someday."

Eric takes hold of his chin again and peers at his face. His eyes.

Just making sure he's not about to jump off the edge of the roof or something similarity stupid that would be inconvenient.

[thewidewideworld]

Sin's eyes are wide and blown but clear. He's an experienced psychotropic drug user and has control of his less healthy impulses, Present company excluded. "I'm okay. I'm high and wonderfully sensitive but I'm okay."

[onceaviking]

"See to it that you are," Eric says.
Okay, that is.
"I really can't be bothered with fallout."

He runs the back of his hand across his mouth and disappears down the stairs.

[thewidewideworld]

Sin lets out a huff at that, letting Eric go without protests. Fun as he might be, Eric's a bit too much of a dick for Sin's taste. He stretches out on the tiles and lets the high of Eric's blood run it's course in his veins.

{ooc: thanks, that was fun!}
