𝐊𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬

𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐛𝐲𝐞 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: Lingering and hard for longer times apart. Ones that curve A's body against B's and cause hands to splay against backs. Or short pecks, maybe not even completely on the mouth for short trips to the grocery store.

𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: After long periods apart, these can include A picking up B and spinning them around. Fingers pressing into cheeks, palms cupping necks, and breathless laughs when they finally come up for air.

𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: A series of short pecks because they need the closeness but they also need air, so. Sometimes smiles come in between, or sometimes its just breath, gasping for the sole purpose of being able to kiss again.

𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: Breath huffing into mouths, angrily or passionately. Hands grabbing at clothing and pulling each other closer.

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: Hesitant and nervous. Lips hover inches from each other for a few seconds before they just barely brush. It's just a soft press, but it ignites their entire bodies. Pinkies link afterwards, still wanting to be close, and each looks down, smiling softly.

𝐀𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐞𝐱 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: Lazy, slow presses. Limbs pressed together, chests heaving. Soft murmurs about what to do for dinner later, fingers trailing down backs, tracing lazy patterns. B rolling onto their back and A trailing their lips down their neck, kissing their shoulder, their chest, anywhere they can think of, memorizing B.

𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: Barely awake kisses that usually end up on jaws or cheeks because A is too tired to land it properly. B makes a sleepy sound and rolls into A, nuzzling their face into their neck, ankles hooking together, while A drapes their arms around B and they fall back asleep for a while.

𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐭-𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐮𝐩 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: Soft and slow. Hands on each other's arms in a way that neither can tell if the other is pushing away or pulling closer. The kiss ends with their foreheads pressed together, neither wanting it to be true that this is happening.

𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐚𝐬 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: More smile than actual kiss. A holds mistletoe above their heads while B rolls their eyes, but pulls A down by the collar of their ugly Christmas sweater for a heated kiss. A takes B by the waist and walks forward until they are around the corner, away from the prying eyes and hoots of the rest of their friends and family.

𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: B walks into find A sitting on the bed, shoulders shaking, cheeks wet. A looks up, face looking stricken for a moment. B is shocked, and quietly says A's name. At this, A breaks, face crumpling, and only barely has time to reach both hands out for B before B is there, kneeling at A's feet. B takes A's hands first, kissing their knuckles and palms. Then B reaches up to hold A's face, pressing soft kisses around their cheeks, their lips, murmuring "it's okay" and "you're alright" and "I'm here" in between.

"𝐈 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐈 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮" 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: The breath is knocked out of both of them with the force that they collide with. Hands grip the back of t-shirts and palms are pressed up and under shirts, holding them close, feeling the warmth of their skin. Palms are pressed to cheeks, thumbs swiping away tears until their mouths collide messily, the world seeming to disappear around them.

"𝐖𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐧'𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬" 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: Fists clenched, hands shoved into pockets. Brows low or brought together, jaws clenched. A feeling like a magnetic pull between them. Their foreheads press together, their lips brush, just barely, until B pulls away with a shaking exhale, forehead dropping into A's neck.

"𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐝" 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: A has their hands on B's neck, murmuring the phrase softly. A's hands slide down B's arms to their hands, lacing their fingers together and slowly starting to pull B towards their bedroom. A continues to pepper B with kisses all the while, trailing them down their jaw and neck.

"𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐮𝐥" 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: Just a soft press of lips to the temple, resting them there for a moment, then smiling down and telling them as much.

"𝐈'𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤" 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: A puts their hands on B's shoulders from behind them, where they are sat on the couch. He leans down and around, while B turns his head a little, accepting the quick peck.

"𝐈 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮" 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: Long and relentless, holding their body close, arms wrapped completely around their waist. A burying their head in B's neck and pressing kisses there too.

𝐀𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐲 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: Hard, gripping. Fists in clothes, shoving each other against walls. Fingers digging into hips. But the kisses always melt away from that. They turn into brushes of lips between shaking breaths, until they're out of energy and are left just standing there, holding each other, fingers carding through hair.

𝐒𝐚𝐝 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: Almost not a kiss at all. Just holding onto each other tightly, A's lips pressed to B's temple, whispering soft words, desperately trying to provide whatever comfort they can.

𝐈𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: The movie plays in the background, but A and B are hardly paying attention from the back row. They kiss soundlessly, long and soft, fingers locked. A's arm is thrown behind B's seat, wrist bent to curl their fingers into B's hair.

𝐃𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: A holds B in their arms, panicked, crying. Murmurs of "no, no, no." Salt on their lips from tears. Voice cracking. Holding on tightly to their shirt, their shoulder, their hand, roughly pulling them against their body, anything to try and keep them tethered to this earth. Kissing them as they die ("no. No, stay awake—"), Kissing them once more even with the life has left their body ("No. God, come back. Please, come back. Please, look at me, I'm right here").
