[ In contrast to his own moment of shock, Verso responds immediately, wholeheartedly. Those clever fingers that had coaxed such beautiful music from the keys of a lonely piano now reach firmly to the angle of Gustave’s jaw and his arm is tight around Gustave’s waist, encouraging, almost commanding him closer. It’s the easiest thing in the world for Gustave to close his eyes tight and fall right into him.
It feels like falling into a fire. Verso is— everywhere, hands and mouth and tongue and teeth, and the sound he makes feels like someone shoveled coal into the flames now licking up the inside of Gustave’s chest. He groans, the sound tugging out of him, and his lips part until he’s meeting Verso’s open mouth with his own, wet and hot and needy. It’s been so long since anyone’s kissed him this way, like oxygen is a thing that happens to other people. He could breath Verso in and drown and barely care at all.
His fingers fist, gripping into the man’s hair, into the cloth of his jacket, and he should really be careful not to tear it, but he’s been careful for so long, really, and just for this moment he wants to forget that it’s necessary, that careful people live longer. He runs the edge of his teeth over Verso’s bottom lip, nips not quite gently; presses another kiss to the corner of his mouth, stubble and soft warm skin and hot breath all combining to fill his head like champagne. ]
