There were some things that time had changed, and some things that it hadn't. Jacen obliged and lifted his arms to let her pull his shift from his body and he let go of her enough to free his arms of the shirt and let it fall to the floor. His hands returned to her hips and under her shirt, fingers trailing at the waistline of her pants as she kissed away at his neck and collarbone.

He felt that hesitation, and that certainly wasn't a scar he was familiar with. That in itself wasn't new. She made a hobby of collecting them. It took only a moment but as his fingers gently traveled along the length of the raised, angry skin and coupled with Bryn's hesitation he knew what it was from.

Smoothly, Jacen dropped to one knee and his hands settled at her hips. the fingers of one hand lifted the hem of her shirt enough for him to set his lips against the paled flesh of her scar. His other hand puled gently at the waistband of her pants to allow him better access. Gently, lovingly, Jacen set his cool lips in butterfly kisses along her abdomen. It was far more than just a scar. It was a reminder of what he'd almost lost, what he'd nearly thrown away and everything in this world that he wanted to keep safe.

Returning to his feet in as fluid a motion as he'd lowered himself, one hand slid up her ribcage to cup her breast as he reached for the back of her head again and kissed he with an increased passion. She'd nearly lost her life for their daughter and all through the pregnancy she'd put herself through ell for them. remembering to let her breath, Jacen pulled back enough to whisper.

Thank you.

She'd given him a daughter, an extra purpose to his infinite existence He could feel her hesitation but he wasn't going to let her stay on that feeling. She'd been comfortable enough before he'd touched a nerve. He didn't care if it took long past sunrise, he was determined to leave her feeling as beautiful as he knew she was, and make it clear just how much he appreciated her. He owed it to her, that and so much more.

She'd set her back against his arm some without knowing it as he traced the scar across her abdomen, and was slightly surprised when he smoothly took a knee, hands trailing from her middle and back to her hips. Emotional nerves weren't the only thing sensitive, as was shown in the way she shifted her hips slightly and ran a hand through his hair as his lips retraced his fingertips affections along the raised and discolored scar. The latent anxiety that had been dragging her thoughts in the back of her mind was immediately washed away by the trembling his attention brought. As with most things, the trouble usually came when she thought too much- that was rapidly becoming a nonissue.

Her heart hammered against her ribs under his hand as it traveled to rest at her breast and her breath caught in her throat. Setting her at a distinct disadvantage when he took hold of her head and deepened his kiss, not that she minded having the breath taken from her so long as it was by him. Her hand was still rested against his neck from where she'd been running her hand through his hair, and when she was permitted to catch her breath and caught his whisper, she couldn't find voice to respond. Instead she returned her hand to bury in his hair and pull him to her for another kiss, just as hungry as his had been.

Having not had this time with him in so long, it was easy to tell by the way her body arched into his touch, the way her free hand firmly made it's way to his lower back to push his hips closer to her as if that were possible, and the quiet, but low growl escaping her throat periodically, that while he may be dedicated to use as much time as needed to chase those phantoms from her mind, he may not need it, but she was going to take it. And take all the time as she could get- if he'd still have her, the way she was, no amount of time would be too much with him. Not after being kept from him as long as she was.

Her physical response was answer and consent enough for him to understand that he wasn't crossing any lines. That was all the confirmation he needed and he spared only partial thought process for watching that his own flood gates weren't fully let to open.. not yet. IT had been a long time... a very long time (even for someone who time's meaning held a different place).

One thing that time didn't tarnish in any way was the memories. He knew just where to touch, just how to hold her and that little spot just under the corner of her jaw. Jacen stayed where he was, bare feet on the cool tile floor before he picked Bryn up again to place her gently back on the counter, his next move to pull her shirt over her head and use to advantage of having her slightly higher to focus his attention on her neck and chest.

While he had no intention of letting her sleep much tonight, it had been nearly two years and absence made more than just the heart grow fond. Aside from their shirts and Bryn's boots, /most/ of their clothes made it to the bedroom. His condition had its draw backs.. sure, but he'd also become very familiar with just what advantages it had as well.

Living alone he didn't spare a thought for closing the bedroom door behind him and his attention was most definitely elsewhere. Despite his plans to focus on her, Bryn had more than a few opportunities to turn the tables on him and did so. Her desire mirrored his and only further fueled the night's affections. While neither kept the other waiting or wanting, there really was little in the way of sleep for Bryn and though not immediately visible from the bedroom, morning was marked by a block of sunlight splashing across the kitchen counter. Her surprise visit had caused him to forget to pull the blackout curtain on the kitchen window with the small flower box outside.

While he wasn't asleep, Jacen did rest in complete silence and stillness. Though the act of breathing was a long engrained habit during his waking, social hours, it didn't translate to times like this and so Bryn's was the only heartbeat in the room. His arm was wrapped around her back as he lay on his back, holding her against his chest, his other arm tucked up under his head.

The fact that they made it to the bedroom with most of their clothing (aside from the preliminary losses) was a testament to Jacen's self control more than Bryn's lack of effort. Time had changed many things, even them in many ways, but it didn't alter the connection that lay too far beneath the surface for time to touch. Any opportunity she got to turn the tables on him she did, but she was just as happy to give him control any time he wanted. Like always, their lives were a give and take, and because such, neither was left with complaint, want or energy come morning light. She hadn't come here looking for sleep, and as such didn't mourn the loss of it, especially considering what she received in exchange. Besides, rest was far more important than sleep, and the well earned exhaustion that eventually overtook her was far more restful than her sleep had been in quite a while.

She'd wound up diagonal on the bed like she always did, Jacen's arm firmly around her back as she draped across his chest. Another pro in him not having to breath, it wasn't like she'd constrict that with how/where she'd fallen asleep. Years ago the stillness beneath her would have wrenched her heart, hurt her and confused her, and while she didn't revel in it, she wasn't as offput by it now. Much like all the other changes, it was part of her, part of her life now. Facing away from the door, she had no frame of reference for time, but, her body was used to being awake early so her shifting came earlier than she'd wanted. It stirred a little guilt that it was the smaller part of her that felt guilt for not wanting to get up, she missed Wren, but oh, how she'd missed him. It had taken time, so much more time than she cared to think back on, for things to come back to where they were before, but, now that they were starting to, she could remember the time they'd had just before all had fallen through on them.

She ran her hand from along his side over his ribs to rest on his chest. Luckily enough, apparently the night's activities staved off any ill effects of her night of drinking before she came over, or the neat whiskey she'd shared with Jacen. While she would discover she had slight cotton mouth, the only part of her body experiencing any form of discomfort was her right shoulder, where Red had tore into it. It had almost entirely healed, but the ligaments and muscles were tight now from use and from how she had slept. The skin itself was still sightly pink, and tender, but it was the underlying tissue that was still stiff and unhappy with her choices. Rolling her shoulder gingerly, she gave a deep and contented sigh and resettled against his chest, willing the sun to just take its time, and let them be.

While he did ‘sleep’ he didn’t really need it, not as often as she did. He’d let himself settle and cleared his mind but there was no way he could let himself sleep. He had her in his arms for the first time in over a year and it didn’t matter that time was infinite and that for him… every second was to be cherished and so it made it all the more painful how much time he’d let slip by. Not anymore.

As Bryn shifted Jacen’s hand slid down her back, finger tracing her spine before he settled his hand on her ass and cupped her butt cheek in his hand with a squeeze, pulling her against him. When she settled again Jacen lifted his hand from her warm skin and reached across the bed for the previously forgotten blankets. He pulled them over her hip and left his hand looped over her ribcage. He was certainly in no hurry to have her wakeup and have to leave. He knew she was away from Wren, they both were and really, their daughter was the one missing piece. That thought trail reminded him that Bryn had brought him some enticing information. If she could swing it with her schedule, Jacen would get himself some time with Wren, and with Bryn as well.

He was vaguely aware of what time it should be but he hadn’t bothered to check the clock at his bedside. If she wasn’t going to stir, neither was he. There was no way that Bryn would have stayed if she didn’t have Wren with someone she trusted. If he had to guess, he’d have gone with Kae. Really, in the manor, Wren was the safest she could be. If Jacen couldn’t trust Wren and Bryn to be entirely safe here he’d have to turn down the offer but he knew he could make sure that she would be fine, that they’d both have a safe, comfortable home here, even If it was going to be a touch cozy with three of them. It was a change he was more than happy to make.

She gave an amused, agreeable noise when he used her ass for purchase to pull her closer, and happily obliged. His trick of getting her to stay in bed worked, the cool blanket triggering her still sleep fogged brain into slipping back under just a little longer. The next time she shifted from her sleep though, she knew she had to get up and at least locate her clothes if she was going to get home in any semblance of decency. Leaving a kiss on his chest as she rose, she left the blanket over him enough to help keep the body heat she'd left behind a little longer. Her pants, bra and panties were quickly enough located in his room, and left in a pile together on the dresser before she left the room, closing the door only enough to keep the sunlight that was creeping in from the kitchen at bay until she addressed that.

Finding her shirt, she wrinkled her nose as she turned it rightside out and smelled stale beer. Right. Riley and her's "fight". Opting to slip his abandoned shirt on instead she left the window curtain open while she went to the bathroom and stole some of his shampoo to wash the shirt in the sink and hang it to dry on the shower curtain rod. That accomplished, she checked her phone and wasn't completely surprised it still had a respectable amount of battery left. It wasn't like she spent a lot of time on it anyway, least of all in the last 24 hours. Running her options through her head, they ranged from "nah," to "NOPE", but finally settled on Alexandra's number to shoot her a text. 'Would you be able to pick me up at Jacen's in a little while? Breakfast on me.' she knew she didn't need to lure the Russian with food, but, it was at least something. It didn't really dawn on her that breakfast was long gone by a hours. Grabbing a glass of water for the cottonmouth, as well as to share with the flowerbox in the window, she waited for Lex's response before putting the glass in the sink, and pulling the blackout curtain shut then leaving her phone on the counter and returning to the bedroom.

He hadn't moved from where she'd left him, but there was a small smirk on his lips that told her he was definitely awake and his eyes hadn't always been closed. She was silent in her approach, then climbed into bed and straddled him. His shirt was wholly too big for her, and hung off one shoulder, its length piling up at her hips. Placing her hands on the bed above his shoulders, she leaned down to "wake" him with a kiss. Successfully bothering him enough to get him to open his eyes she looked down at him with a smile, thick chestnut hair a wild disarray and clearly not apologetic at all for disturbing his "sleep".

I ended up having to wash my shirt from last night, so I'm either going to have to wait for it to dry, or steal one from you. Guess I'm delayed in leaving, what a pity.

Sure, she had a ride coming to get her, but, she hadn't told Alexandra to hustle, so, they had a little time.

He’d have been a fool not to peak. You didn’t waste a view like that. When she returned to the bedroom he had his eyes properly closed, listening to her movements through the apartment and forcing away the ache that threatened in his chest. It took him back to times that this was a familiar routine and he knew after last night, the apartment was going to be painfully quiet.

While he could hear her moving about, he wasn’t consciously trying to follow her travels by sound so when she hopped on the bed and deftly straddled him it gave rise to a more obvious smirk and she sealed it with a kiss. His emerald eyes opened on a view he could most certainly live with and he dropped his hand from beneath his head to trace his thumb up her jaw.

Why’s it always either or with you?

He lifted his shoulders enough to kiss her again before dropping back to his pillow.

Do both.

His left hand reached for her hip and he flapped the fabric of his shirt as he spoke. She could wait for her shirt to be dry, and steal one of his, wasn’t like he had a shortage.

You might as well steal one anyway, I’d say you’re overdue.

It didn’t bother him in the least that this was a one way deal. She was starting a small collection and it hadn’t escaped him that one of the last ones had been a favourite of his but thinking of it on her only made the arrangement all the better.

He let his hand slide under the loose hem of his shirt to her leg and up her thigh to her hip before circling around to cup her butt cheek again. He may be dead, but evidently that didn’t stop everything. He was still a male with the most beautiful piece of ass straddling him and his next kiss made it clear he knew just that.

Leaning down she laughed slightly into his first kiss, for him calling her out to just do both, as she had already. His hands sliding over her skin were still more warm than cool, but it didn't stop them from causing small shivers here and there. At his invitation to steal another shirt, her reply was delayed when he stole another kiss and between it and his roaming hands, she response would be fitting. Pulling back from his kiss a little, she kissed his jaw and neck, hands traveling down his shoulders to his chest to keep her just above him.

Overdue for quite a few things...stealing shirts...

Her voice was low, thoughtful almost, and her kisses her sufficiently affectionate and restrained to start with as she moved from his neck to his chest, shimmying her hips slightly to slip from his grip to be able to do so.

..a shower...time with you...

She'd reached his abdomen by then evading his small attempts to pull her back up for a kiss up until then. After a (very) brief pause, she ran her lips across his lower abs lightly before returning up to be more eye to eye with him, nothing but trouble written across her features.

Or, like you said, I can do both.

After her toying comment, she let herself be caught, gladly, her lips pressed firmly against his.

His attempts to pull her back up were less than even half hearted. His abs tightened instinctively beneath her warm lips and he let his hands fall to the bed as she snuck herself out of his reach. He had lifted his head to watch her though and that coy smile of hers spelled only trouble for him. Trouble he could do.

He met her return with a kiss and used that momentary distraction to pitch her over onto her back and Jacen rolled with her, one arm snaking behind her back at the hips, the other braced on the bed as he got himself up on his knees when he rolled. With his one arm around her, Jacen lifted her slight frame from the mattress to pull her against his chest and then he made his way off the foot of the bed to stand, still holding her. Now that she’d remedied his earlier blunder he could make it to the bathroom without worrying about burning himself.

Lets see how much of that we can catch up on, shall we?

Jacen carried her across the room and into the bathroom, balancing her easily enough as she wrapped her legs around his torso. He was careful to place her down on the tiled floor before reaching for the shower faucet and pulling the water on. Once it was running at an acceptable temperature his hands returned to her hips, sliding under the oversized shirt and working up her ribcage to pull it over her head.

She wrapped her legs around his torso easily to help keep her weight centered as he took them to the restroom. Raising her arms to assist him removing her freshly stolen shirt, her response was simply to glide her hands over his hips to the small of his back and set her lips to his throat, not sparing the time for words. The day was taking him from her soon enough, she'd take what time they had now. She'd given Alexandra a rough eta that allowed them ample time to be ready by the time she got there, but there was something to be said of distractions and he'd always had a way of stealing time from her. The shower had only just been turned off when she heard a very familiar bike parking outside far below. Pushing the creeping feeling of loss away, she gave him a fleeting kiss then escaped to his room, leaving him to make himself decent first- he'd take less time anyway.

Bryn had just buttoned her pants and was looking for her shirt when Alexandra knocked on the door, and she could hear Jacen let her in while she rummaged around. Blast, right, the shirt she'd stolen from Jacen initially was still in the bathroom...with /her/ freshly 'washed' shirt. Selecting one of his button up shirts, she was able to button it halfway then tie the ends so that it fit her slightly more reasonably than his hockey shirts would. Tucking her socks into her back pocket she walked out of the bedroom braiding her wet hair over her shoulder and gave Alex a greeting. Her voice was light enough, but there was a slight twinge of sadness behind it.

Thanks for giving me a lift Lex.

Her morning had started out with a lot less extra curricular activities then the occupants of this particular dwelling, it had been more along the lines of waking up early with a cooked breakfast and a good book. The rest of it had been more about hitting more serious books but that always came second nature to her so she fell into the routine easy enough. Azreal had given her the study books on law and now it had just been up to her to sort out all the information.

Bryn's message had come at a bit of a good time for a break so she finished off the chapter she had been working on and then cleaned off the small desk that she had been using and then picked up her leather jacket from the closet, her helmet and the spare one. With keys in hand she locked the apartment door behind her and took the stares down into the lobby and then the parking lot where she had left her bike.

The quick ride to Jacen's place didn't take her much time at all but it was just enough to give the two inside a chance to get dressed, once Jacen answered she tried to enter in a way that would allow the least amount of sunlight in before shutting the door behind her.

"You sure you want to be whisked away from your casanova here?"

She'd had to hold the tail of her brain while she searched one handedly in her bag for a hair tie. Securing the thick rope of hair and tossing it over her shoulder she gave a small laugh to Alexandra's question, though it did give her heart a little of a twinge.

Want? No, but there's a small copy of him at the manor who would be most put out if I didn't get back soon.

Difficult actions and choices were always made a little easier when Wren was involved, this was no exception. She picked up the hanger she'd grabbed from the closet when she'd stolen her shirt and went to hang up her now resoaked shirt in the bathroom and hang it up proper to dry. Looks like Jacen was going to start his own collection, though the idea of him trying to get any of her shirts over his shoulders was one of the more amusing thoughts she'd had in a while.

Returning to the living area, she pulled her bag over her head and shoulder across her body, knowing it would be more secure that way on the bike. The last task was putting her socks and boots on and while she was tempted to stall and unlace and relace them, she went ahead and used the cheat to zip the sides of the boots to get them on instead.

It was an odd arrangement that seemed to be had here, though maybe it seemed more so like that because she had never really had a 'proper pack' or all the little rules that went with it but wouldn't it just be easier for Bryn and Jacen to live together? Sure the toddler was probably safer with all those eyes keeping watch so why didn't they try to live on the property that the pack owned? Surely it would be easier then going back and forth.. but maybe there was more to it.

"Maybe one day you'll both figure out a way to live like adults, under the same roof and everything."

It was weird to think about it, the thought of those she knew in school to at some point live together and even have a kid together. They where all growing up. As Bryn went about getting the final few things sorted out before she was ready, Lex unzipped her jacket to stop from getting too warm.

Even though they were still quite young, they'd all certainly grown up. It was slightly disconcerting to think about, which is why Bryn tried not to.

Adults? Don't blaspheme.

She said with a wink to Lex. Finishing securing her boots, she stood and crossed the room to where Jacen was standing, far quieter than he'd been earlier. Lex had a point, the obvious solution to things was her and Wren staying here, but, there was far more to it than what their old classmate knew. It would probably behoove them to let the Russian in on more details of what all had happened but...that was a very long story, for another time.

As for being under the same roof...we're working on it.

Bryn's mossy eyes looked up to catch Jacen's and she stood on tiptoe to kiss him gently. Wrapping her arms around his middle, she put her head to his chest as she embraced him and murmured,

I'll let you know as soon as I get my schedule sorted.
