Test the Waters (Cracker x Reader)

Unexpected

You'd been itching to do something for a while and found your chance for it. Cracker had been trying even harder than before to get you to love him. He'd been trying to woo you, doing his absolute best to impress you in any way he could think up. And it was working, to some extent at least.

When he entered a room, you smiled, happy to see him. He'd found ways to make you laugh through silly jokes and puns. And best of all, you no longer only tolerated his touch, you wanted it. Which brought you to the opportunity presented to you right now. You'd been wanting to take the time to touch him without his teasing or commentary. The one habit he'd never grow out of was the teasing.

It was late at night and he was asleep, sprawled out on his back with an arm flung over his eyes. Long tresses of lavender hair clung to the pillow, a few strands sticking to his face and neck. He was a heavy sleeper, you could make a racket, push him around, and he'd stay out.

You scooted closer to him until your head bumped into his arm and you could wrap a leg around his own. A small snore escaped his open mouth but nothing else happened, making you a little more brave. You slid a hand across his broad chest and then along his collarbone. His skin was soft and smooth. Besides the few expected places, he didn't grow hair well so his torso was always bare.

You moved your head to lay on his chest as your hand moved down his abdomen, feeling the hills and valleys of the well defined muscles. His snores got a little louder as you ran a single finger along a hip, stopping when you hit the sheets. They just barely covered him, leaving only a small patch of curly purple hair visible. You trailed back up his body, watching him occasionally twitch as you grazed more sensitive spots.

As far as you could tell he was still out cold. The snoring stopped but his breathing was still steady and he wasn't moving besides the twitching. You lightly touched along his neck and jawline. You'd wanted to feel along his face and scar for a while now and this was the best chance you'd get for that. For half his face at least, his arm was still covering his eyes. You brushed your thumb across his slightly chapped lips to his cheek, pausing at the edge of his scar.

It had you curious since the day you saw it. You wanted to know how he got it, how the ruined skin would feel under your fingers. And when you reached for it, it felt exactly as you thought it would, the discolored skin was rough, full of tiny bumps and dips. You didn't get far into feeling it before Cracker snatched your hand, his pastel eyes resting on it and then focusing on you.

"Having fun feeling me up mousey?" His voice was husky from sleep.

You turned at least three different shades of red, making him crack into a wide smile. "I-I was just...."

"You didn't have to wait till I was asleep for that." He dragged you on top of him and rested his hands on your thighs, not quite awake enough to do anything else. "Have at it."

You puffed your cheeks out in a pout from being caught. "You'd pick on me otherwise."

"Cause I like seeing you get all flustered. Catching you did just that so I don't have to pick on you now." He chuckled, making his body shake under you.

"Whatever." You rolled your eyes at him, earning another hearty rumble.

But you did have another good opportunity to feel this giant of a man, this time while taking it in from a different angle. Your hands were firmly pressed into his chest for support, fingers splayed out and still barely covering much of the broad expanse of it. With lips slightly parted and head tilted curiously, you returned to exploring parts of his body you'd never been able to before.

You leaned back a bit, removing a hand from his chest to run it along his shoulder and down his arm. From there you went back to his abdomen and up his chest, making him jump slightly as your fingers brushed a nipple. Cracker had started massaging your thighs and you realized his member was stiffening behind you. Just running along his body was enough to turn him on. With him under you like this, you could see how far you could push him.
