Voices in the Dark

I wake up gasping,
I vaguely recognize the walls of my room.
"Night already?"
"You slept awhile"

I turn, my eyes  adjusting to the dark,
"Noir" cursing my instant arousal
"You got your ass kicked"
Shame burns my cheeks.

I-i-.." not finding words I clamp my mouth shut,
Noir raises an inquisitive brow.
Exasperated  I fall back "nothing."

She rests her head on  my chest
I take an uneasy, shakey breath "What are you doing?"
"Comforting you" Noir trails a finger down my torso,
The gesture doing funny things to my insides.
"Noir"

"About what you said in the cafeteria today"
"Yeah"
"W-what exactly got you...you know"
Well the truth is off limits and I can't exactly lie.

Bringing Noir's hair to my lips I sigh "you...your scent."
"My scent?" Noir asks facing me
"You smell like Jasmine and.." I hesitate your lips god your lips."
Those same beautiful lips curve into a seductive smile "oh"
I couldn't help but claim them for my own.
