“Mmm?”
Neon’s soft hums with every caress of Jett’s gentle fingers on her face were all it took for the Korean to fall in love even more. They were soft, yet curious, like a cat’s purr. Neon always did remind her of a cat.
Jett’s lips curved into a fond smile at the thought.
It was moments like these that made life worth it. It was these moments that gave Jett the will to get up everyday and work.
They were both lying on Jett’s bed, side by side and facing each other. Neon’s fingers curled as they rested by her chest, her beautiful lashes fluttering in the warm orange glow of the sun that shone through her windows.
“Hoy, Jett? You seem to enjoy staring at my face a lot, maganda?” Neon smiled warmly, nuzzling Jett’s hands as the Korean woman flushed slightly.
“You caught me.” Jett ran her fingers along Neon’s gorgeous cheekbones. “I’m guilty.”
“Hah!” Neon laughed with a big grin, body unconsciously shuffling closer to Jett. “Wonder what Brimstone would say if he saw you breaking a rule?”
“Says the one who confessed first.”
“Tumahimik ka, mahal kita.” Neon kissed the base of Jett’s palm.
Jett melted. Her whole body felt warm and giddy, her face dusted with a pink blush. Before Neon, Jett had decided to abandon the idea of loving someone. Nobody ever made her feel like this, or as safe as Neon did and it made her worry whether she would ever find someone.
And she did.
Just a simple little action like kissing her palm made Jett become a flustered mess, giddy like a teenager in love.
Jett stroked her thumb at the corner of Neon’s eyes, where a small pigmented streak that resembled eyeliner lay.
Natural eyeliner, Jett always proclaimed it to be.
But both of them knew what they were.
“Your tear burns are very pretty, Tala.” Jett smiled mischeviously. “Natural eyeliner?”
“Pfft, shut up.” Neon snuggled closer to Jett, rolling her eyes. “Are you ever gonna get over that ‘natural eyeliner’ idea?”
“Not when my girlfriend is so pretty she was born with eyeliner.” Jett teased, before her breath hitched as Neon leaned in to press her lips against hers.
Jett blushed, feeling Neon’s hand rest on her waist. The sensation of Neon’s lips on hers made her heart rate accelerate, pounding in her chest. Neon pulled away with an exhale of relief, instead nestling into Jett’s chest, wrapping her arms around her. Neon tucked her head below Jett’s chin, burying her face into Jett’s neck.
Jett couldn’t breathe. Her palms were sweating as she cocooned Neon in her arms, cuddling her. Hesitantly, Jett kissed the top of Neon’s head, resulting from a warm hum from the Filipina wrapped between her arms.
Neon peppered gentle kisses to Jett’s neck, causing the Korean woman’s face to flush deeply. She pulled Neon in closer, soft utterances coming from her mouth with each gentle kiss.
“That feels nice.” Jett murmured, feeling Neon’s hair tickling her face.
Jett ran her hands through Neon’s soft and fluffy hair, running it down her neck. Neon relented her attack of gentle kisses, instead snuggling into Jett.
It was a while before they both drifted to sleep, Neon falling first. She snored quietly, making Jett giggle as she felt the Filipina’s soft breaths on her collarbone. Neon mumbled something incoherent in her sleep, lips brushing against Jett’s neck as she wrapped her arms around her girlfriend more tightly.
Jett drifted off to sleep, where her dreams continued her fantasies of Neon with the warmth of her girlfriend around her.
