Monday Night, Secluded Area on The Beach: Homework

Homework assignments were very, very important.

Rikku had a map of the night sky and was supposed to find constellations. Her teacher said so. This was important school work.

Jude was of course just tagging along in case it got cold or she got lost or something. Because they were sitting on a blanket in a cozy secluded spot on the beach so that they could look at the stars. For a homework assignment.

Totally.

(it's for the jude-dude)

"Pretty easy homework, bra," Jude said as he stretched out beside her, one arm almost wrapping around her but totally just propping himself up. Right.

Rikku toed off her boots and leaned back against his arm. What? You had to look up to see stars. That involved leaning back.

"Yeah. She said we had to mark them off as we found them. Lemme see." She pulled out the charts, which were a bit hard to read in the dark. Of course, she had brought a flashlight, but ~~that was very romantic~~ it wasn't that dark yet that she needed it. "Whoa. You guys have totally different stars than we do."

"I noticed that. When we were at that Moonflow place," Jude said, his arm tightening arond her. For support. "You can't see the stars in Toronto so easily."

"You can't? Why not?" Rikku snuggled in. Seeing the stars required ... snuggling in. For various reasons. "Oh, yeah, the Moonflow. Still kinda weird, all of that. You getting to see Spira, I mean. That was ... really nice."

She frowned at the map. "I'm gonna have to keep turning around, aren't I? Some of them are back there."

"We could lie down," Jude suggested.

"Oh. Yeah. Good plan." What? She wasn't blushing. This was homework. It was important to do your homework promptly.

She leaned back slowly to stretch out on the blanket and looked around. "Much better, you're right."

"Uh huh." Jude wriggled a little bit to get comfortable, his arm still around her. Totally not snuggling. Because school project, yo. His hand trailed down her arm while the other pointed straight up. "Hey, it's Orion."

"Ooooh, where? Really?" Rikku snuggled in a bit closer. For the purposes of seeing where he was pointing. Not because he smelled all nice and Jude-y. "Was that on my list?"

"Probably, it's one of the big ones." He took her hand in his, showing her where he was pointing. "See, those three stars in a row? And then there's four more in like a box around them. It's supposed to be a dude wearing a belt."

"Three stars and a box are supposed to be a guy in a belt?" Rikku's thumb was not brushing slowly over his fingers as they pointed. Because this was homework.

"It goes like this," Jude slowly traced the outline with their linked fingers. "A guy without a head or arms or legs . . ." He suddenly realised how distracting thumbs can be.

Well, realised again.

"Good thing he has a belt," she said softly, shivering a bit as he moved their hands along. "He doesn't have much else going for him."

She glanced over at Jude. What? Just, you know. To see if he was following along. The constellations. Orion or whoever.

"There's some story about him, but I . . . don't . . ." Jude had happened to glance over at the same time and kind of forgot what he was saying. Because her eyes were really pretty under moonlight, all swirling and wide and looking at him like that . . .

"About his ... belt, or why his ... legs are ..." Rikku didn't remember where she was going with that. It probably wasn't important. Not as important as leaning in just a little bit further.

Jude couldn't cup her face, their hands still linked, but he leaned in the last little bit and laid his lips against hers.

Rikku closed her eyes with a light sigh, lightly pulling both of their hands down but keeping them linked. Her other hand, luckily, was free to reach over and tuck a few stray bits of hair behind his ear as she wriggled in closer.

If Jude was that kind of guy, he'd figure out something to say about her eyes and star-gazing, but he was kind of busy at the moment. He deepened the kiss with a little bit of a happy murmur, turning into her.

Rikku giggled, because his happy noises always made her a little giddy. And wriggled in, teasing his lips gently with her own. Okay, there were probably some happy murmurs from her, too.

Jude chuckled softly, his leg shifting over her possessively as he nibbled at her lower lip.

Rikku sighed and leaned back a little, running her hand through the hair at the nape of his neck. She tugged lightly at his shirt with a grin, because hey, if he wanted to roll them over ... that was a-okay with her.

Well, if she insisted . . . Jude was quickly pinning her lightly to the blanket, his lips dropping to her chin and then along her jaw.

Rikku leaned back with a sigh, lightly pulling his toque off to get her hands through more of his hair. And shivered, not from the night air. She tipped her chin up hopefully, in case he was going for her neck. Mmmmm. Neck.

Definitely going for the neck. Started with a little nuzzle that shook out his hair, and then a drag of his tongue up to her chin before settling in for some seriously nibbling.

Rikku let out a low moan at the tongue-drag. She didn't mean to, it just sort of happened. He kinda had that effect on her. Whoa.

She wreathed her fingers through more of his hair, twisting it around, as her other hand slid over his back down to where his t-shirt was sliding up just a little. She traced the skin lightly with her fingers, clutching a bit when he nibbled.
