Aeris could feel his uncertainty about what she needed and how to prove to her that there wasn’t anything that could separate them again. She wished that she knew the answer, that she could tell him what she needed, what he could do. The reality, though, was that she didn’t know any better than he did. She didn’t know what out there could give her certainty. She didn’t have his unshakeable faith.<br/><br/>The only things that she knew for certain were that they loved one another, that neither of them wished to be separated, and that they would both do anything to remain together. She trusted in that, in him, even if she didn’t trust anything else in the universe. That would have to be enough. As for what she needed, the only thing she needed now was him, and that need, along with everything else she felt, was poured into the kiss they shared.<br/><br/>When he turned, she moved with him, so that she was lying down as his hands easily undid her robe. Her hands sought his skin, his hair, anything within her reach as she moaned softly when he began to kiss down her body once again, pausing his pursuit to lavish attention on her breasts before continuing downward. She didn’t mind receiving his love this way, no matter how many times he gave it; in fact, she was more than happy to accept it and she didn’t think she would ever tire of it. All that mattered to her was that she had him, that she felt his touch against her skin, that she was surrounded by his love. Nothing else mattered.<br/><br/>She tangled her fingers into his hair, moaning as he settled between her legs and once against sought to use his mouth to bring her pleasure and show her how much he loved her. Aeris banished all other thoughts from her mind, focusing solely on him. She allowed herself to get lost in the pleasure and love he lavished on her, in everything she felt for him, until there was nothing else left in the world but the two of them. There were no worries or fears, only affection, love, joy, desire, and pleasure.<br/><br/>She held out longer than usual, wanting to bask in these feelings and in him for as long as she could. “Please… I need you,” she whispered when she could take no more. She needed more. She wanted all of him. She wanted to touch him, to feel his body against hers, to taste his lips, to feel him inside of her.<br/><br/>--<br/><br/>Jax had made it through a good deal of his own training by the time An-Lok finished. He had made it through strength exercises, many of them similar to what he had done with the recruits, but on a more difficult scale, went through his forms, and had done some training against the combat dummies. Now he was on to a mixture of agility and further strength training. Much like what An-Lok had done, he was doing a one-handed handstand, his eyes closed as he meditated Through their bond in the Force, he watched her as he remained this way, until after she had finished with her own training.<br/><br/>He opened his eyes and pushed off with his hand with enough power to launch himself into what resembled the latter half of a back handspring followed by a backflip. He landed on his feet, more gracefully than one would expect from a man his size, albeit nowhere near as graceful and beautiful and An-Lok’s performance had been. He straightened up and nodded, wiping his forehead. “Sure,” he answered her question. “What else are you in the mood for?” he asked as he crossed the space between them to stand next to her.<br/><br/>“I’m not really particular, so whatever you want to do is fine,” he told her with a small smile. He wanted to give her a hug, but his body was slick with sweat, so instead he gave her a kiss on the forehead and then took her hand, gesturing for her to lead the way. “I get the feeling that you have something in mind, so lead the way, Princess. Wherever you want to go, I’ll follow,” he told her with a grin. If she wanted to go off by herself, he would allow her to, of course, but he would be happier to stay by her side instead, if he had the choice.
