Angels (Pavel Chekov)

87 - Wild

Pavel can't figure out why Vienna's so quiet that afternoon. She's studying next to him on the couch but she's not talking like usual and he's tried to start conversations that have only gotten one word answers in return. He asks if he did something to upset her and she looks up.

"No Pavel, it's not you. I just had a scare this morning. I'm okay now but you remember when Selwyn freaked out when I had my hand in his hair? The stuff I had on my hands was like a bonding agent. My period is two days late so I was scared that it had gotten me pregnant or something but it just messed up my hormones instead. I went and checked with doctor McCoy but it was pretty stressful."

"Does Selwyn know? Did you ask him about it?"

"He went with me. It was more awkward than I thought it would be."

"And you're sure you're okay?"

She nods and he puts a hand tenderly on her shoulder. He leans over and pecks her cheek. She puts her PADD down and stays wrapped in his arms for a few minutes. She sighs and tells herself to relax. She tells him that she's sick of studying and can't wait to get away for a while. She's spent her morning imagining a peaceful getaway with Pavel out in the middle of nowhere. She thinks of cuddling close to him in a tent and eating junk food by a campfire.

Vienna goes dancing a few hours later and complains that her body isn't keeping up like it normally does. She blames the hormones again and tries her best, apologising to Selwyn for getting tired so quickly. He doesn't mind, feeling a little exhausted himself after his morning. They dance until class finishes and don't stay behind like they normally do. Vienna goes back to her own room to study for a while and finds the place empty. She gets lost in focus for a while and gets plenty of work done.

Later that night, Vienna messages Pavel and tells him to come stay the night. He doesn't stay at her dorm often and is glad to have the opportunity. She cooks dinner and Pavel studies at the kitchen bench. He's writing on his PADD and she watches his eyebrows knit together and smiles at him.

He looks up and returns her smile, going back to his astrophysics problem and tapping his pen against the top of the bench. He gets up to get a glass of water and Vienna picks up a tea towel and flicks it against his backside. He turns around, noticing the teatowel and grinning. He remembers the last time she was flirting like this with a tea towel, back in what seems like a million years ago.

She hooks the tea towel over his neck and pulls their faces together. She kisses him firmly and he smiles against her lips. He pushes her against the kitchen bench and she starts kissing along his neck.

"You drive me wild," he mutters, pulling their bodies close. "You make my whole world spin."

She gives him a look and he bites the inside of his lip. He can taste the tension between them and he looks towards her cooking.

"Please, please can we forget about dinner for a little while?"

With a glance, she says nothing, turning the stove off and moving a pan off of the heat. She puts the tea towel down and looks to him again. He swears she looks like she wants to eat him alive and he picks her up, carrying her into the bedroom.

They don't waste any time. It's dark and they strip down to just their underwear. Pavel presses against her and she moans softly. He kisses along her neck and rocks his hips against her. For once, his head is totally quietly and all her cares about is watching the faces she makes.

"Pasha, let me make you feel good. Let me make you moan my name."

"Shhh," he says softly, moving the hair from her eyes. "Not yet. I want to try you first. Is that okay?"

She nods, sitting up a little. "Do... Do you want to get naked? It's dark and we can't really see anything but..."

His heart rate picks up but he wants to, nodding and pulling her undies off with a little help from her.

"Can I take yours off?"

He hesitates, mentally scolding himself for freaking out again. "Da," he says, before his brain makes him say otherwise. He feels his cheeks burn but adrenaline is starting to kick in and he feels like his chest is inflating.

"I've never been naked like this with someone before. I think I like it," she mutters, her hand resting on his knee.

"I think I do too," he laughs weakly, paranoid about making awkward contact. She kisses him softly and he tries to let himself calm down. He has a hand on her hip and she lays back a little, trying to keep their lips connected. He starts using his fingers to tease her a little and she moans against his lips.

"Pasha," she says weakly. "Pasha, you're teasing me."

"Oh, I know," he says coolly, continuing what he's doing and letting her squirm a little more. He waits until she asks again before speeding up. Her toes curl against the bedsheets and he pushes his fingers into her, wishing he could see her face a little better. She moans his name and he grins, speeding up just a little more until her moans louden and she goes over the edge.

"Pasha," she says weakly. "Oh my God. My whole body just feels..."

He laughs and wonders why it feels different from last time. He kisses her cheek, telling her he'll be back in just a minute. She nods and he disappears into the bathroom, making sure the door is shut before turning the lights on. He gasps when the lights go on. His fingers are covered in blood and he frowns, turning the tap on and running them under the water. He uses plenty of soap and wonders what he's supposed to say to her.

"Enya," he says softly, coming back in. She's laying down and he swallows, trying to form a coherent sentence. "I just went to wash my hands and I... I think you..." He finishes the sentence in Russian, cursing himself for not being able to just say it. "I think you got your period..."

Pavel's only ever heard Vienna swear once but she swears and quickly heads out of the room. He finds his pants on the floor and pulls them on before getting up and following her.
