The Telescope Dome, Tuesday Evening

[stars_and_money]

Jeremy wasn't a guy who went back on his word or did date-type things in a half-assed manner. He'd dressed well, and had a table for two set out within the little observatory on the dorm roof. What was being served was covered with some of those shiny dome things for now, but it was going to be good. Of course it was, he'd handwavily gotten it from one of the dining establishments on the island on special order.

He also had something else, a little surprise hidden away, but that was for later. Now all he needed was Caroline, and he'd be set.

While he waited, he made sure everything was perfect.

"A man with connections," she said, offering up a wrist. "Spray me? See if you like?"

Technically speaking, in this case he was a a man with a big sister with connections, but he wasn't about to get into all those kinds of details. Karen had already gotten her thank yous.

And Jeremy had other things to focus on. "Of course," he said, as he went to uncap the bottle and spray some of the perfume onto her wrist.

Caroline rubbed her wrists together and tapped both sides of her neck before turning back to Jeremy to try and get a whiff of her new present. "What do you think? As far as I've been told, a man's opinion is more important than a woman in this case." Though she personally enjoyed the scent.

Jeremy, perfect gentleman as he occasionally was, put the bottle aside for the moment and reached to gently take one of her hands so he could bring her wrist closer to his nose.

"I like it," came his verdict with a smile. "I think it totally suits you. You smell good."

There was nothing quite like that sort of skin proximity and Caroline smiled, pleased by his touch and his answer. "Thank you," she said, leaning in to try and press a kiss to his cheek. It was part of the reward system for gifts and compliments.

Jeremy let her do that since it wouldn't have made any sense to try and stop her. No one had kissed him, cheek or otherwise, in a while.

Of course, having let her do that, he was going to try and steal a quick, light kiss against her lips, now. Just a light and playful little peck, and he wasn't the type to get his feelings hurt if his attempts were thwarted.

He was crazy if he thought she'd consider thwarting him. Kisses were few and far between in Fandom and Caroline was pleasantly surprised by his peck. She stayed close and smiled wickedly, "Oh, I think you can do better than that."

[stars_and_money]

"Of course," Jeremy murmured with an easy smile of his own. "But I was being a gentleman, and that was just a teaser."

This next one wasn't going to be. He leaned in to actually kiss her this time, completely willing to show that yes, he could definitely do way better than that. There were a lot of situations in life where he was clumsy and uncoordinated, but kissing wasn't one of them.

And he rested one of his hands lightly on her shoulder, because he just felt more touching was better.

Touching was always welcome so far as Caroline was concerned, but even more so when it was there was already kissing involved.

She leaned in reaching a hand around the back of Jeremy's neck, returning his kiss with a small sound of pleasure. It was a good feeling that she was plenty happy to get lost in for the time being.

Well, she'd moved closer so Jeremy thought resting his other hand on her hip wouldn't be too forward. She smelled nice and this felt nice and he really saw no reason not to let the kiss linger some more.
