sleepless long nights, that is what my youth is for

[awkward_ginger]

It was saturday night, Gideon had finished all his homework for the weekend, and he was feeling a bit restless. Normally at this point he'd probably kiss Marlene goodnight and head to bed, but... It was so warm tonight. He just didn't feel like going to bed.

So he sat in one of the chairs, bouncing his knees up and down and feeling like he wanted to

Marlene came in after a long study session in the library for a Transfiguration test. She set her books on a table and smiled at him, only a little tired. It was time to get her mind off school for now.

"Hiya, you."

[awkward_ginger]

Gideon bit his lip giving her a small smile, still bouncing his knees.

"... We should do something," he announced.

[calendrgirl]

"Oh?"

Marlene looked around before slipping into his lap. "Like what?"

[awkward_ginger]

Gideon grinned and blushed and slipped his arms around her. "I don't know," he shrugged. "I just want to do something. It's warm and it's stuffy in here and I'm not tired at all."

Marlene smiled shyly at him, standing just in her floral bra and gypsy skirt. She played a little with the waistband.

[awkward_ginger]

Gideon glanced up, his undershirt half over his head. "... Merlin."

[calendrgirl]

"..... What?"

[awkward_ginger]

Gideon shook his head, doing his best not to stare. "It's just... I've never... Not in person..." He blushed deeply.

"Don't forget! Gotta stay near the edge."

Marlene, grinning widely to herself, took off after him and gave him a gentle shove towards the water.

[awkward_ginger]

Gideon laughed and stumbled a little, chasing after her into the water. He let out a small gasp as he slipped into the water, slightly shocked at how cold it was. "Merlin!"

[calendrgirl]

"Keep movin'!" Marlene said, giggling as she waded quickly, moving her limbs as fast as she could.

[awkward_ginger]

Gideon let out a bit of a shocked laugh and did like she did, kicking his feet and waving his arms as he waded. "I didn't expect it to be this cold!"

[calendrgirl]

Marlene pushed her hair off her shoulders.

"Yeah?"

[awkward_ginger]

"... Yeah," Gideon breathed, scooting a little closer. He bit his lip and tentatively set one hand at her waist, not entirely sure of what was going on.

[calendrgirl]

Her skim immediately tingled from his touch and she kissed him softly. After a moment, she went to tug at his shirt.

[awkward_ginger]

Gideon lifted his arms, his hair sticking up as she pulled it from him. He blushed and gently kissed her again.
