Sirris ran his fingers lazily through the curls of his hair, stretching it back out even as it attempted to curl in on itself. In truth, he was lying in wait. He forced himself to be disregard just how passive-aggressive he knew this behavior to be. Sirris was trying to get a rise out of him, damnit. To be the one to piss off the other. Countless times Uriah had provoked him. Sirris wanted to give him a taste of his own medicine.
Pointedly ignoring Uriah's jibe as to the emotional disposition of his kind, Sirris found he couldn't ignore the second provocation. Matter-of-factly, Sirris responded, "Is this the first time you've been outdoors, vampire? Sheltered away like some delicate glass object? It wouldn't surprise me. Animal though I may be..." Sirris flicked a casual glance over his shoulder before going back to stretching his hair, "At least I'm... living."
Okay, perhaps that was a bit too off-color.
Oh, how Sirris loved it.
The werewolf pointedly ignored the vampire but heard him enter the water behind him.
Hmph. Didn't take much. Sirris's smirk was vehement.
Just a few more steps and Sirris knew the vampire would be upon him. Several scenarios went through his head as he planned his next move. It was without a doubt that the vampire would get physical--violent, even. He mentally thought of the ways he could counter the attack when it came--and it would come--and found that he enjoyed each grisly detail of the vampire's demise.
But the attack never came.
Instead, Sirris felt a presence behind him; which unnerved him because he didn't perceive the body heat he'd usually expect from another creature standing so closely. It was rather off-putting. Feeling somone there and yet not. No wonder these creatures were as strong as they were.
And, yet, as soon as the lightest of touches brushed his ear, Sirris about jumped out of his skin.
So much for proper planning. He hadn't planned for this scenario.
If waking to the site of the vampire's face was bad enough, this was ten times worse. It was one hundred times more worse when Sirris found himself leaning into it.
This was an intimate action only observed between members of his clan--and for good reason.
A deep growl emitted from the werewolf as he moved into the press of skin (was it lips?) against his neck. He pushed back into the one behind him, seeking warmth and finding little.
'You should be more careful if it were anyone else... they would have taken a bite.'
"If only a bite were all, vampire," the werewolf said in a whoosh as he exhaled, head falling forward. Damnit. Of all things. Whether or not he knew it, Uriah had inadvertently calmed the werewolf.
And Sirris had inadvertently realized he wanted more of this. He missed mutual affection from his clanmembers--but when it came from an enemy?
The water lapped around him as the other moved away and Sirris was left with his hands in his hair. At Uriah's urging, Sirris rolled his eyes and dipped under the water once again. When he emerged, he shook himself to get the water out of his ears and walked back ashore.
He fastened his sandals but tossed his clothes over one shoulder. Walking past Uriah, he scaled the tree he'd rested in and retrieved his pack. Once he was back on the ground, Sirris gestured for the vampire to get going.
"Since you're in such a hurry."
