If she thought getting the faintest taste of him off his breath on her face back in the opera house was intoxicating, this whole experience is mind-numbing.
He tastes exactly like rum and cake, it doesn't seem possible that her guess a couple of hours ago could have been so correct. So wonderfully correct. It sets her mind buzzing with a new sort of high, nothing like alcohol and, though she has no experience with drugs, she imagines this is quite different than anything you could get with them, too.
Shand is intentionally leaning over her but not pressing down on her. Damn if it doesn't feel like his entire weight is on her chest somehow. It's hard to breathe like he's actually, somehow, taking her breath away.
How long has she secretly wanted to do this? Been pining after him but pushing the feeling down to the point she doesn't even recognize it? It feels like since the day she met him. He's always been the one that stood out the clearest in her memories, that she was to happiest to talk to, missed the most when he was gone. She really had just been fooling herself this entire time, hadn't she? This proves it.
Maybe it's more than just this intangible weight on her chest making it difficult to breathe now because she finds herself out of breath the longer they kiss, taking deep breaths through her nose to try to keep up with him, her chest starting to heave a bit.
He goes to pull back, probably to give her space, but it's not what she wants. Her hands slip from his face into his hair, gripping at the waves to keep his face pulled close to hers, tugging on it a little bit in the way she had imagined doing it earlier but had felt wrong thinking about. Now it feels right. Like she was just saving the idea for this moment.
Shand seems to find it amusing because she can feel a little chuckle pass between their lips as they both part their mouths to better position themselves on each other's. It makes Luna smile right up at him, move her lips to his bottom lip, mouthing at it lightly. Tentatively, afraid to get a little carried away over how addicting he tastes and feels.
