[ He'd kind of assumed, too - it's not like he's been abstaining from sleeping around with other people, even after their mutual love confession. Not even close. But even so, it's good to hear her confirm it out loud. Just in case. Jesse doesn't want anyone getting their feelings hurt, or thinking they'd agreed to one thing while the other person was thinking something entirely different. He nods eagerly in response, ready to agree to just about anything. It's just a relief to know they're on the same page.
He smiles slowly back, his eyes roving straight down her cleavage (as low as he can really see from this proximity) and then back up her face to meet her eyes. ]
Yeah.
Yeah, totally hot.
[ For all he and Harley have done together, they've never fooled around with anyone else involved, or even in the room. The thought of putting on a show, either for or with Harley, or maybe even watching her fuck someone else...
It's new, definitely. But also exciting. He grinds his hips almost absently against hers, just once - he's not actually hard yet, but just thinking about what's to come already has him starting to get interested. ]
Off the table?
[ He drags his attention back to her earlier question with an effort, though for a moment all he can do is stare blankly. Absolutely nothing comes to mind. He's yet to balk at anything Harley's ever asked for or suggested, after all, and he shakes his head. ]
Nah...I...I can't think of anything either. I mean, we can always say no if somethin' comes up.
[ That much is a given. He gazes down at her, his hands still wrapped around her waist, and gives her a soft smile, his eyes warm.]
You're the best, Harley.
[ He says it softly, gazing down at her. But a moment later, his expression brightens as inspiration hits. ]
Hey, do you think we should bring some of the aphro-laced stuff? Just to get everyone in the mood?
[ Not that he'll need it, not with the group they've invited. But it couldn't hurt, right? And it might help with some of the shyer members of the group. Like...well, okay, Daryl. It's mostly for Daryl. ]
[ It is good to talk it over and have everything confirmed out loud. Even though Harley had correctly assumed she wasn't the only one sleeping around, she couldn't help but feel a slight twinge of guilt somewhere in the back of her mind each time. That little voice that questioned whether Jesse was doing the same, and if he would be okay with what she was doing. It had never been enough of a doubt to stop her, but it's nice to know for sure now, even if she's a little bit scared of what actually seeing Jesse with someone else might do to her. Fantasizing about it is one thing, but seeing it in reality might be entirely different. Still, Harley's holding to her usual optimism that everything will turn out and that it might add another exciting aspect to their whirlwind relationship.
Harley melts equally beneath Jesse's words of praise and that soft expression that comes over his face. She leans in for a quick kiss, her mouth curling up into that bright smile of hers as she pulls back, a hand still curled around the back of his neck, fingertips playing with the fine hairs she finds there. ]
No, you.
[ Harley insists, but then Jesse brings up the idea about aphro, which, to be honest Harley assumed that they'd all partake or at least have it around, but her face lights up at his suggestion anyway, because she loves lifting him up and sharing in his delight and excitement. ]
Yes! Y'know, I was thinking the same thing. Great minds.
[ Harley taps the side of her head with an index finger, giving Jesse a look. ]
I still have a huge batch of laced hooch that I brought. Didn't even put it out at the party since we had all that beer and liquor already. Plus I think we still have some of the snacks left, too. Maybe we should all partake. Just to loosen up a little? And that way nobody feels weird being the only one using it?
[ Harley hints at Daryl without saying his name aloud, since, well, she already knows that Jesse and Wade have no problems messing around without aphro. She also knows that neither of them have an issue with indulging in it either--for fun. So maybe if everyone does it, nobody'll feel like the odd one out. ]
[ Jesse nods eagerly. He doesn't think either he or Harley will actually need aphro to get going, and he's not sure if Wade's ever actually gotten dosed. He might just be...like that.
But it definitely can't hurt, right? Not as long as they're all on board. And if it makes things a little easier, and makes Daryl feel like he's fitting in a little better, gives him one less reason to feel self-conscious, that can only be a good thing. He smiles down at Harley, his own eyes warm, and gives her waist a soft squeeze. ]
So...we doin' this?
I can find Daryl if you wanna grab Wade. Then we can all meet upstairs.
[ Harley smiles even if underneath it all, there's a rush of nervousness tangling in the pit of her stomach. She's never really had to share before, and, while she knows for a fact now that Jesse's been sleeping with other people just as she has, seeing it in person is bound to be an entirely different experience, so she really has no idea what to expect.
It helps that she's comfortable with at least three-quarters of the group, and it's not that she's uncomfortable around Daryl. She just needs to get to know him a little bit better, and maybe this'll be a chance to do that. She's pulled from her thoughts when Jesse squeezes her waist gently and she nods. ]
Yeah, sounds good.
[ She pushes herself up to meet Jesse's lips in a quick kiss. ]
