“It’s my birthday and I don’t want to be alone,” but she’s used to that – until she’s not. College AU.
notes: finally realized the number of parts this will entail, hopefully i’ll be able to post them in less time than i posted this one.
Killian celebrates his birthday in
February with “A Party So Big the Heavens Can See It,” dubbed so by Will, a
surprisingly fitting label coming from him. It happens to fall in the quiet
weeks between the start of the semester and midterms, so there’s a turnout at
the frat that Emma isn’t exactly expecting. Killian’s friendly, but she doesn’t
think so many people would be offering him birthday wishes (and presents, a
ridiculous amount of $5 gift cards to the campus Starbucks) if Ruby hadn’t
spread the word of a party and Jefferson and Victor hadn’t promised the music
and drinks.It’s cold as all hell outside and yet
Emma finds herself there, on the back porch of the house, icy wind raking
through her hair – and his fingers, too, as he tugs her even closer, nudging
her nose in his desperation to deepen the kiss. His tongue strokes over her
bottom lip, seeking entrance and finds it when Emma parts on a breath that’s
quickly swallowed up by his kiss. The music is loud enough that Emma can hear
it even through the closed door, but the rat-a-tat beat of her heart is louder,
dancing in harmony with his other hand, riding up her side.
