there's almost a part of her that wants to ask him to just wait. wait for her to get this out of her system, wait for her to be able to give him back the love he was offering her on a silver platter. it's a stark reminder of the age difference between them, that maybe if they were just at the same point in their lives then this wouldn't even a conversation. "maybe i am. i just don't know, benny. i have to figure that out for myself." she shrugs, heart fluttering in her chest at the feel of his lips pressing into her palm. relief spreads through her at the knowledge that they would share a bed together at the very least. "and what about a kiss?" viv asks, thumb still softly stroking his cheek. "that's not sexual. it'd just be because i miss you, and you miss me."

Although he long preferred being on his own for so long, Viviana had come along and changed that mindset for him. Ironically she had no interest in being involved in a serious relationship. The only comforting fact was that it wasn't anything to do with him. Even if her reasoning was irritating. "And who says you can't do that with me? Maybe you're also missing out on being romanticized and smitten while also getting the best fucks of your life." He replied not caring how much he was teasing her right now with the romantic ideal. With a sigh he pressed his cheek into her palm more kissing it as he nodded his head. "Of course I'll share my bed with you. That wasn't an option either. You're just not getting my cock. Or anything else sexual."

she goes willingly into his arms when he wraps her in the towel, hands resting gently against his chest. it's funny how violent the both of them are in their day to day lives, their hands covered in more blood than anyone would know, yet she always feels safe in his hold. "it's not that there are better options than you, baby. i just...i'd hate to look back on my twenties only to realize i wasted them not having fun and living life to the fullest. a real relationship just doesn't fit into that for me." but why did it feel like she was losing something even more special in exchange for that? his arms drop but hers don't, one of her hands sliding up to his cheek and brushing her thumb over it. "okay. you're gonna share a bed with me though, yeah? i'm not sleeping on your couch."

Now that she's cleaned up Benedict allows himself to admire her for all her beauty. Of course he wants her but what they want are two completely different things. As she reached for the towel he beats her to it and opens one to wrap her up in before pulling her close against him. "I do want you I just want you completely. Not just for hooking up or when you don't have better options, which are arguable in my opinion." He sneered knowing there weren't many men out there better than him. "You could have me every night if you would just not be such a brat. I mean I like you being a brat just not about being with me." He shrugs before letting her out of his arms. "Stay here tonight yeah? Just so I know you're okay. I'll grab some clothes for you to wear. They'll be mine though since you didn't leave any here when you left."

"how sensible." she teased in return, though she could not me more different in that respect. her family has always had money, and she's never known better when it comes to worrying about it. he has her so relaxed now, the cuts on her body pink and fresh while the blood settles in the water. "do you not still want me?" she questions with more innocence than she possesses, becoming more sombre with every word that leaves his mouth. she'd been missing him more than she though she would, so used to bouncing from one person than to the next that it shocks her far more than her feelings for him had. she turns in the bath so that she can look at him properly, seriousness settling in her gaze. "i may not want a relationship, but i do still want you." she admits it before standing from the tub, water dripping from her as she steps out and reaches for a towel. "thank you, benny. i needed you tonight."

"You have a taste for luxury. I have a taste for not wasting resources." Benedict teased as he continued working the product through her hair before gently rinsing it off. Considering how well he knew her it was obvious she was already working to seduce him. "It's not going to work Viv," he clucks his tongue shaking his head as he moves to help cleaning the rest of her body not enjoying the sight of her soaking in bloody waters. "I know you too well. Perhaps if we were under different circumstances. Blood doesn't exactly turn me on. Especially when it's someone else's. Also, you know that's not what I want. So unless you've suddenly decided you want a relationship noting will be happening between us tonight. You're certainly staying the night though."
