But then Chord kissed him, removing all doubts.

Putting his hands atop of the blonde boy's shoulders, Piers smiled against Chord's lips and lingered there for a moment with his eyes closed, savoring the softness of the kiss. He lifted one hand to his partner's cheek then, and started to caress the soft skin, while leaning in, eager to follow Chord's invitation in taking the dominant part. His full lips parted slightly and his warm tongue peeked out to draw a wet line across Chord's lips, begging entry and asking the other's tongue to come out and play.

Chord pale lips parted, welcoming Piers's advances and greeting them with his own. While his role was not dominant, he was not as shy and wary as he had been the first time. This time, he was sure it would be alright.

Piers couldn't believe how nervous he had been not even one week ago in the Japanese Gardens before the kiss. It was a first in many ways: Chord's first kiss, his own first time kissing a male, and – perhaps most importantly – their first kiss. They were an item now.

His irrational fears and inhibitions of sharing such an intimate and physical moment with another male, let alone the romantic feelings, of which an act like this was an expression, seemed to be soothed by touch.

Excerpt from the Roleplay. As in the title, the thread was called "Closer" and featured the two characters. Chord, played by moi, and Piers played by a good friend of mine.

Oh, and an interesting note... Chord ACTUALLY looks like a guy this time. Shocking!

I keep thinking their heads are two different sizes, but in reality, it's just because Piers has a shaved head, so it just looks a little weird (not to mention Piers is leaning towards the picture and Chord is SUPPOSED to be leaning away fromt he picture on Piers's other side). And the legs, for some reason, look short, but I think it was just positioning. In fact, I think the legs would be a realistic length. Maybe I'm just used to drawing horrendously long ones.

Uhh... Yeah. First Piece I've submitted in a long time!
