CH extra 6

Fireworks

“People can hear you!”

[I think we’ll get along better.]

“Puck!”

[Or they’ll think I like you very much.]

She was speechless. This man is really out of the blue. It was the last section where the song slowed down again. Kyrie couldn’t find anything to say, and Nathaniel gently lowered his eyes to the accompaniment.

[That’s a relief. I also thought I really fell short of your aesthetics.]

Kyrie sighed.

“You worry about everything with that face.”

[Looking at you, you don’t seem to have any preference]

“Isn’t that a bit deep to pick up things that you don’t like? I’m not a philanthropist.”

[Then, can I at least think that you have some kind of ‘intention’?]

It was a smaller, lower whisper. He was talking lightly, but there was nothing he didn’t mean. Kyrie felt it, and she also felt the tip of her ears heating up.

After taking Nataniel out of the sea, how was it? The signal sent by Nathaniel was sufficient. Because he had an infinite amount of time, he felt that he was still waiting for him without much pressure. Kyrie herself is not ready.

She looked at her hands held together. My hands were shaking a little. Kyrie lowered her voice.

“It’s not that I don’t like it…….”

[So]

“It’s not that I don’t know that you’re holding it in…….”

Nathaniel hesitated. If he had taken an attitude of ridicule or teasing even a little, she would have run away immediately. However, Nathaniel only stared at her with clear eyes, which encouraged Kyrie more. She thought her face was about to burst. Her face heated up arbitrarily because of her shyness.

“So… I don’t know how to express that intention…….”

First of all, Nathaniel’s lips opened and closed for a moment. He quit trying to say something. The empty space of the faded smile was filled with strangely exclusive and primitive emotions. At first glance, only the face with a slight sign of surprise seemed clear and pure, but pure water is also used in many meanings. Pure yearning, pure blindness, pure…….

[I think that’s the signal I wanted.]

It was the moment when Kyrie thought that the stars sparkled in Nathaniel’s eyes.

The dance is over.

Kyrie, who was staring at him blankly among the retreating people, was surprised and lifted her head.

“I need to rest. Maybe it’s because it’s been a while, but I feel a little tired.….”

Her voice got smaller and smaller. Nathaniel looked down at his empty hands and smiled vaguely as if he had seen through everything.

[Is that so?]

Even then, the gaze did not fall from Kyrie. Is it possible for the cold and calm eyes to appear to be boiling quietly? Kyrie headed to the balcony with her lips closed, she felt like her skin was being peeled off.

After opening the door to the balcony, Nataniel confirmed that Kyrie was entering and took a step inside.

[Does our supreme master, Lord Protector need an escort?]

“No! It’s okay. I’ll be alone for a second.….”

[If that’s the case]

After muttering like that, Nathaniel looked around and confirmed that no one was looking this way. And with a sharp jawline, he slowly lowered his gaze and looked at Kyrie.

“…….”

It was meaningful gaze.

Kyrie unknowingly looked at him with trembling eyes, giving strength to her fist.

Soon after, Nathaniel slowly pulled the curtains on the balcony. Red curtains covered the bodies of the two.

Until he approached slowly, Kyrie was a little careless. When his hand, which did not hold the curtain, clenched her cheek, she slightly closed her eyes while biting her lips because she wanted a kiss as a light bird. Soon, his lips became as close as the distance their breath was mixed. A drowsy sigh was heard from a short distance.

[If you don’t like it]

She knows how to push him out

No. 

Nathaniel smiled low in a voice that made her arms fluffy.

[Let’s get punished later.]

Kyrie was embarrassed when his unexpected tongue came into her mouth. He tried to step back reflexively, but rather, his hard arm wrapped around her waist. It was an incredibly deep and sensual kiss that she couldn’t believe they were doing while avoiding other people’s eyes. When she put her hand on his shoulder without realizing it, Nathaniel skillfully wrapped it around her neck.

Her body was gradually pushed back. Kyrie struggled and tried not to escape the scope covered with curtains. As Nataniel originally aimed for it, he tilted the curtains little by little, making her dig into his arms.

There was no sound. Nothing pushed her to the point where she couldn’t breathe. However, Kyrie was suffocated, and in the middle of the night, she was out of energy and stumbled. Her vision blurred because of the unknown tears. In the meantime, she could see Nathaniel watching her with his eyes down gently.

In the blue eyes, he was busy going back and forth between the things he had been hiding. How did he hold it in? There was a strange sound from Kyrie’s throat.

“Hik.”

He put more force in his arm around her back. Nathaniel placed the curtain and hugged Kyrie’s body. Surprised, Kyrie opened her mouth wide and a small voice escaped. After that, a kiss naturally chased her.

Watching the velvet curtain wave like a red wave over the wet field of view, Kyrie closed her eyes again. She felt like her whole body was going to melt down. Her skin became viscous and she felt like she wanted to cling to Nathaniel.

When her hips touched the railing on the balcony, she felt anxious about her empty back, unwittingly giving strength to Nathaniel’s arm wrapped around her neck without realizing it. As if he had hoped for it, Nathaniel let Kyrie cling to him closer into his arms as if she was about to fall, and took off one of Kyrie’s heels.

With a thud, her heels fell to the floor and fell through the railing.

“Ah.”

[Shh]

His fingers climb up the ankle bone.

A strange sensation spread around the legs in stockings. The fingers, which were climbing in a circle as if measuring the circumference of the ankle, widened the area as if stroking when they reached the back of her protruding calf.

Five fingers pressed against the skin one after the other, as if playing a musical instrument.  At first, it felt like a measure of strength, but gradually it wrapped around the back of the knee like a snake.  That was the feeling of ‘Sharing of skin’ in a popular novel.

(T/N: sharing of skin means…*ahem*….R19 stuff)

It was a tight and persistent contact as if trying to make sure there was no place out of his reach. And above that, it was a part that had never been touched by others. Kyrie realized that she was trembling. If the soothing and soft kiss hadn’t made her dizzy, she might have fainted. As she became breathless, Nathaniel took his lips off for a moment.

[Good girl.]

It was a voice that was deeply immersed as if he was resting. When Kyrie tightened her arm around his neck as if answering, Nathaniel breathed out a sigh again.

[I like your goosebumps.]

“…….”

[Of course, it’s better to do it]

The garter belt holding the stockings was thrown off.  The spring night air touched her skin because of her curled up dress, and then Nathaniel’s hand covered her thigh, half resting on the railing.

When the skin touched each other, Kyrie and Nathaniel also paused. Kyrie lifted her trembling eyelids and saw Nataniel.

Nathaniel, who never seemed to close his eyes and appreciate her expression, stopped moving and accepted Kyrie’s gaze. In the iris reminiscent of all the waves in the world, black pupils were seen flinching as if they were about to jump. Other than that, it was a perfect expressionless expression. The hand holding her thigh became more and more powerful, and on the contrary, the hand supporting Kyrie’s back was exhausted.

Kyrie whispered as if sobbing with anxiety that she was about to fall out of the railing.

“Nathaniel….”

Kyrie was surprised by his voice and stopped speaking in a hurry. It was a breathy voice that sounded obscene that she had never heard of, it sounded like she wanted to continue this situation right away.

Immediately, Nathaniel’s focus was on Kyrie again. The pupils looking at her contracted a little and then inflated.

[Using that voice is cheating]

Kyrie noticed right away that his patience was short-lived inside him and has been defeated by his impulse.

Nathaniel’s head went down. He now began kissing Kyrie’s ears, jawline, neck, and collarbone one after another. An alarm rang in her head. Suddenly, one of the stockings and the dress fastening on the back were lowered.

“Wait!”

[I’ll get punished afterwards.]

“Listen to me!”

[I’m listening.]

“You’re not listening!”

Kyrie pushed Nataniel down while he tightened his arm without falling back somehow. Far from being pushed out, there was no movement. Velvet curtains were covering the balcony, but if anyone opens the curtains? Kyrie’s head was filled with repercussions and all kinds of scandals that would occur then.

“No way!”

It was the moment when she screamed.

Boom boom boom!

“Oh.”

Fireworks exploded behind her back.

Nathaniel paused, and Kyrie turned her head in surprise. Before she knew it, people went out to the ballroom and gathered outside. The garden tree blocked the view, but she was nervous to leave her fate to the frozen leaves.

‘But I’m glad it stopped… wait it’s not like that!’

When Nathaniel kissed under her neck again while listening to the fireworks behind her back and people’s cheers, Kyrie eventually took off both hands and covered Nathaniel’s mouth. Nathaniel skillfully supported her back trying to move back.

“Will you quit when I’m in danger?”

[…….]

Nathaniel blinked and looked at Kyrie with his mouth closed, and began to kiss her palm a little dissatisfied.

“Hey, Nataniel.”

[Kyrie.]

“Wait. Calm down.”

[I was calm the whole time.]

“This is the moment you need to be….”

[Kyrie.]

“But people might see it…….”

Nathaniel, who seemed unlikely to step down, paused. Kyrie’s prediction that courtesy would work was right. Nathaniel’s body fell back a little with reluctance. Kyrie barely sat on the railing stably in a close position.

Nathaniel put his head on Kyrie’s shoulders silently and touched the railings on both sides. She heard a long sigh.

[It’s absurd, why fireworks?]

“It’s a wedding.”

[Yes, it’s a wedding….]

He muttered the words over and over again. It was like a word to persuade him. Kyrie patted Nathaniel’s head slightly and shifted her gaze.

Long after, Nathaniel took his hand off the railing. He looked very tired and uncomfortable, and he reached out with a simple, but signature beautiful smile.

[… Come down. You’re going to fall off if you move.]

Kyrie accidentally laughed.

“You’re a real gentleman.….”

[I don’t feel like getting compliments from Kyrie Buchanan.]

Kyrie came down from the railing and breathed heavily. She trimmed her clothes by showing awkwardness through the joints of her whole body. For now, it was clear that the lip makeup was all removed. Her hair is messy, and her face will definitely turn red. Stockings… It was better to take them off because of wrinkles.

“Shoes…”

[Leave it alone]

Nathaniel replied with a half-smile and half-heartache mixed face.

“But…”

At a loss, Kyrie looked up at him with her eyes wide open. Nathaniel glanced down at Kyrie and mumbled, [So, that expression.] and narrowed his forehead a little. In an instant, it was covered with shadows everywhere.

“Wait!”

At Kyrie’s cry, the shadow hid again under Nathaniel’s heels. Nathaniel smiled and showed both hands.
