“S-Sorry..” she giggled, looking down at the beautiful design of the cake. “You do know it was going to be ruined anyway when we cut it?” It would be such a waste unless.. Reaching over to the table to grab one of her cameras, Katelynn positioned it just right to get a good angle on the cake, snapping photo’s of it so his hard work would be captured forever. “There..now I’ll always remember today.”
Giggling some more, she put a bit more on his face, dabbing the icing across his cheek this time and taking his picture. “And now you look extra delicious..” And leaned forward to lick the icing off his cheek.
He couldn’t help feeling a rush of pride as she took the photos. Yes, he’d known the decoration would be spoiled when they cut up the cake, but it was still nice to have a picture of it preserved. Not only his work, but the memory of this occasion. “Thank you for doing that, Katelynn.”
Jack shivered pleasantly, closing his eyes as she leaned in and licked him clean. It was just a playful little thing, he knew, but her tongue was so warm on his skin. And her choice of words – it sent his thoughts in directions that were not fairy-tale appropriate!
“Nn-” Fighting back those thoughts, he let Katelynn finish licking his cheek. Then, as she pulled back, he smirked at her, and smeared a streak of icing across her cheek. “Two can play at this game, my dear princess.”
Her giggles intensified at his playful nature, putting the cake off her lap so it wouldn’t topple over. Grabbing a bit more of the icing she smeared some on his lips like lipstick and kissed it off his lips, licking her own in the process. It was a rare moment when he decided to be silly like this and she couldn’t help but relish in it and see how far he was willing to go.
“So it’s a challenge then? Cause I don’t really think you could win against me~” she teased, taking the icing off her cheek and sucking on her finger, watching him from below her lashes.
When she teased him like that, Jack knew he didn’t stand a chance. Trying to sound valiant, he answered, “Perhaps not, but I shan’t go down easily."
Being confident and playful like this was still so new to him. But when he was with Katelynn, somehow it became easier. Maybe it was because it was just the two of them, or because it was a special occasion. Or perhaps it was just her – some special thing about her that made it easy for the shy man to be brave enough to show how much he loved her.
He kissed her eagerly, tasting the icing and the familiar sweetness of her lips. Getting some more frosting on his fingers, he moved from her face to her bare shoulder, smearing a streak there and bending his head to lick it off slowly.
