I can't help it if you want to be on your knees in front of me so much.
( this type of talk isn't something that stefan's very good at or does very often but he's over a century old so he can talk like this and so he decides to give katherine a little bit of a treat.
he doesn't know how long he'll be able to keep it up but he can do it for a few moments. )
I could always tie you down. ( he shrugs. ) At some point.
[ what she expected definitely wasn't this. katherine peers at him with a look of surprise on her face, wondering if she heard him correctly at all. contrary to what she may want him to believe now and in the foreseeable future, she remembers their drunk text conversation and how she needed to guide him through it all. she didn't mind, and still doesn't. she knows what she wants and she's a force to be reckoned with when she wants to get it. she kind of likes that his 1864 self is still within reach. ]
Really? [ she sounds intrigued. her heartbeat picks up a little in excitement. what she says next isn't anything coy, she simply wants to hear him say yes. ] You'd want to do that?
( even if he hadn't been very good when she'd drunkenly called him and told him all sorts of interesting things about what she wanted to do with him and to him. and while she'd carried that conversation for the most part, he hadn't forgotten and he wasn't a complete prude either. )
[ she bites her lips in an attempt to hide her smile. ] I just never expected you'd want to do that.
[ with her. that's the unspoken bit. katherine's gotten pretty good at quickly understanding what she should say to stefan and what she shouldn't when it comes to her insecurity with him. she knows he doesn't want her to be anyone else, she just has to stop wanting to be someone else to fit with him.
she glides her finger lightly along the slope of his nose and cheeks. ] But you should. I'll even pretend I can't break out of it.
[ her smile widens as she wears her surprise and amusement without any hesitation. there's things he wants to do? has he been thinking about these things? and if yes, for how long? are they for her or just general things on his bucket list? ]
Really?
[ she can't help herself from asking. ]
As your friend, you should tell me. [ looking down at him pointedly, ] You shouldn't keep secrets from friends.
( does stefan want to tell her all that's in his head? does he want to share some of the fantasies he has about her or in general? )
Didn't I just tell you a secret? And you want more now? I don't know if I want to tell you everything right off. Then, there's no mystery and it might get boring.
[ with a smile, she shakes her head. god, he's such a pain in the ass sometimes. why can't he tell her the top ten fantasies he has of her? is she really asking for too much? ]
Technically, it's not a secret. I recall saying something very similar to you a little while ago.
[ so take that. ]
But have your mystery, Stefan. You'll just have to wait longer for it to come true.
[ how long would he wait? for eternity? he may not realise it, but he's hitting all the right buttons for a romantic like katherine. to her credit, she does try her best not to get swept up in the romance of it. they have their limitations, and half of this is just them talking. she hardly expects him to follow through.
leaning close enough to touch the tip of her nose against his, she scrunches up her face playfully before she pulls away. ]
You're horrible. [ she smiles and tries to hide her laugh; there's no malice in her voice. ] I just want one hint. Please?
[ does he now? colour her surprised. she was starting to get the impression stefan was a monk. ]
Give me a hint about one of your other fantasies.
[ she does partly expect him to pull back and zip his lips shut, but she's not katherine pierce if she doesn't press and try. but she genuinely wants to know. what is one of the things he fantasises about? ]
( but stefan doesn't immediately say anything. he just leans closer to hover near her lips, not quite kissing her but being close enough that she'd feel his breath against her lips.
katherine can't help but laugh, completely taken aback by him. where she thought he'd play coy and refuse to answer her... here he is, answering her. sometimes even stefan salvatore can surprise her. ]
Are you serious?
[ if he needs even further proof that she doesn't mind that idea, he'll hear her heartbeat pick up in excitement. ]
[ pinching her lips together, katherine does want to burst at the seams and ask him again and again until he breaks what it is he intends to do with those blindfolds. will he wear it so she can torture him? is it her that's required to trust him? she hates how excited she gets at the idea of him wanting to do something with her that totally crosses the line of a platonic friendship. ]
Fine.
[ she's doing her best to play it cool. turning her face away from his, she ensures to stretch out her naked body as if that's temptation enough for him to tell her everything. ] I hope I don't have to wait too long. You know how impatient I get.
What's that old saying? Good things come to those who wait?
( with her stretching in front of him, stefan moves closer and drops a quick peck of a kiss against her shoulder before stretching out himself, an easy smile on his face. )
If you just wait a little while, maybe you'll get that good thing, Katherine. Just maybe.
( she would definitely get it. just not right now. )
[ maybe he's right. what he thinks she needs to be patient for isn't what makes her believe that. it's taken over a century for him to be so carefree with her to the point where he does drop her kisses impulsively. katherine wants more of that. if she tells him so, he's going to be so self-aware of what he's doing that he'll stop. she smiles to herself, none too keen in letting him in on what's making her feel very happy.
watching him stretch for a moment, she then arches her brow. ] Maybe? Well, if I don't, you know how good I am at exacting my revenge.
[ he's going to be blue balled into the next century. ]
( he's very, very aware of how good she is at getting her revenge when she wants to. and when she does decide to take revenge, anyone in her path is going to get mowed over. )
But you'll get it. I don't tend to say things and not follow through, am I?
[ that's very true. the last thing he'd said he'd wanted to do, he's followed through with rather spectacularly. he's been a very good friend... better than most. but she doesn't particularly want to bring down their playful banter with that.
pursing her lips, she scrunches up her face playfully. she sighs, ] I suppose so...
[ she shifts so that she can lie pressed up against his side and lay her head on his shoulder. she glides her hand along his chest so she can palm his side. ] I might need a reminder. I've forgotten a lot of things since coming out of your bathroom with you. [ she pouts, ] I'm very old.
( much, much older than he is and sometimes, that's very evident but other times, she can also come off as very young. the innocent girl that he'd thought scraped out of her was still there. she was just well hidden. )
I'll be sure to give you reminders every so often. When I remember to, at least.
[ she scoffs and gives his side a light squeeze. ] Oh, please. You're practically a baby.
[ 170? that's barely anything. he's still so young in his immortal life. considering she's sort-of-dated-but-not-dated someone over 1,000… it's strange to think of how age seems to matter but not matter when you're immortal. ]
But if you think about how old we were when we turned… I'm only two years older than you. [ 17 and 19. they are so close in age, yet the lives they've lived and the different parts of the world they've experienced have sometimes made her feel so distant from him. she glances up at him with a cheeky smile, ] How does that make you feel that I'm still the oldest and therefore wisest?
( stefan trails off, tilting his head and making a face that clearly says he's not sure about that. he manages to hold that face for a few moments before he laughs and shakes his head. )
You probably adore being the older woman in all things. So you can use exactly that line.
[ she can't help but laugh when he laughs. she really likes his laugh, especially when he's being a dork. ] Is it not true?
[ is katherine fishing for a compliment? no. while they're very nice, stefan's kind words tend to overwhelm her these days. she wants him to keep his compliments in his pants... or maybe tucked beneath his pillow, given he's not exactly wearing anything right now. ]
I can't help but be the older woman. It's not like there's a dating app for immortals who are five centuries old or over.
