Mission:
Season 1 Interlude II (E5.5)
Location: Temtibi Lagoon, Risa
Timeline: ID3
Beach volleyball. What's not to love, right? Yet somehow it had evolved from the banter and group to-and-fro to a dance party right there on the open beach. Hot sun made for hotter sand, which had driven those who wanted to keep dancing into either the shade of the palm trees, or, in the case of Teejay and Wolf, into the shallows of the readily available water.
Moves. He had them. Enthusiasm turned up to eleven, rhythm on point and happiness radiating from the human-Vulcan hybrid with overt warmth. Lost to the depths were those feelings of loss, guilt, anger and confusion - to be continued - buried behind walls that had to be break down in some future moment. The shift from darkly driven low point to childlike high would be marked for anyone who had witnessed Teejay's emotional breakdown, but anyone who was only meeting now would solely be able to see the life of the party he had become in the last few hours.
His dance routine shifted from duet to solo, depending on his mood in every changing moment, but in the sunshiny beach landscape, Teejay was in his currently needed element.
"No!" he called happily to Leah. His voice was honey soft, wrapped with a lightly lilting accent that carried his current humour like a banner. "Not like that - like this!" And he lightly bounced before her, jiggling his lithe muscular form glad only in a pair of colourful shorts and a flower boa. "You gotta put your hips into it," he added, ducking down and gyrating with abandon, face and body gifting the world an expression clearly driven by joy.
Leah had gone from a shirt and a saree, to swimsuit bottoms and a now increasingly wet shirt as she joined into this instructional dance set with giddy ease. The norwegian hated heat, but she hid it well, especially when the atmosphere around her was good and boy was it good now.
"Science guy's got moves!" She squealed with a chuckle as she attempted to match his movements, letting her hips match the movements of his. "Today, Njordr is happy! If the Lord of the Sea is happy, then all are happy!" Leah danced closer to him. "How happy are you, Science guy?" She asked with a challenging expression on her face.
The close lines and welcome wrinkles of that very wet shirt held Teejay's attention to the point that his gaze remained steady despite the intense motion of the rest of him. He wasn't sure about Njordr's happiness, but Teejay was definitely owning his right now. The world revolved around the beach, the water and the woman before him.
"Better!" Came the dance-instructor feedback with that dumb grin, and Teejay's hands suddenly got all interested in those curvaceous hips, pulling them within arms' reach of each other as he answered Leah's question. "Happy enough, Secret Squirrel," he returned, voice sing-song in his reply. "You look amazing! But your dancing needs more work," he added cheerfully, guiding her a little with friendly enthusiasm. "If you want to be worthy of the Sea Lords!"
Leah laughed, letting him guide her. "Perhaps we should get out of the water, easier to dance with fewer restrictions!" Wolf continued to challenge as she pulled away suddenly and stripped off the wet shirt, leaving her only in a matching top to the bottom of her swimwear. "Science Guy and Secret Squirrel, I like that."
Before more could be said though, she took a few steps further into the sea, it now covering her thighs, "there is other type of dancing we could be doing, you know? If you can catch a wolf?" She kept going deeper, a challenging smirk in her features, ready to start swimming if he accepted the challenge.
He'd been about to say something about easy being for boring people, when Leah pulled her shirt off over her head and totally stole 100% of Teejay's attention. His body kept dancing on its own for a little longer, but his gaze was entirely rapt in his companion's excellent form. He grinned, teeth gleaming white in a childlike beam, as she named them both and walked in deeper.
"I catch your drift," Teejay confirmed, following Leah into the ocean. "And I accept your challenge," he added graciously, sweeping an arm outwards to indicate she continue onwards. "The chase is on, wolfie."
Leah clacked her teeth in a mock bite, and did a quick turn, diving into the water, completely submerging for a moment before resurfacing, her hair in a golden halo around her in the water. She didn't look back, instead bolting towards a private little alcove she'd seen earlier. It was a small beachside with fine pebbles and water crystal clear (then again, all water was like that on Risa.)
It was private enough for what thoughts she had in her mind.
He paused a moment to laugh, and suddenly found himself languishing in her literal wake. Still, the image of her biting the air amused him no end and it remained a source of amusement in Teejay's head as he duck-dived underwater and aimed himself like an enthusiastic dolphin in the same direction as Leah had set.
Looked, Teejay realised, as the two drew closer, himself still happily in second place and gainful pursuit of his secret squirrel, like a private, secret little spot. Perfect!
Rising up in the shallow water, he stood tall, rubbed one hand over his short hair and grinned broadly. "Good spot," he said, meaning both her skills at finding it and the location itself. "You luring me here to take advantage of my generous and cuddly nature?" Teejay asked, his expression far from the picture of innocence.
Leah gave a shrug, as she ducked under the water briefly to get the hair off of her face. As she resurfaced, she stepped closer to Teejay, now bare centimeters from his sculpted, uncovered chest. "I don't like to waste time when I like something, or someone." Wolf looked up at him. "And I think you're like that too."
Watching the Nord bob up and down in the water was infinitely awesome, so Teejay took his time in appreciating that particular treasure the universe had opted to bestow upon his day. He beamed with happiness as Leah approached him finally and adopted a childish replica of a strongman pose, arms up, elbows out and everything. "You'd be right in every way," he agreed easily, reaching out then with both hands to see if he could get away with placing them on those soaking wet, palely beautiful curves. "I'm also a keen recycler," he deadpanned, as if that was an important thing to say right now. His grin returned swiftly though, as he continued in the mutual theme they seemed to be both adopting. "I think moments should be shared, time appreciated and all the fun had, whenever there's an opportunity." You never knew, after all, how long such chances would be available.
"Oh thank god, I was going to add that no-recycling is a total deal breaker for me." Leah replied seriously, her fingers dancing up his bare arms. "Totally non negotiable that." Her smile returned too, "now, how about you go after what you want, hmm?" Skin was now against skin. "Or should I run away again and you can chase me some more?"
In reality Leah knew that they both knew that she got them to this part. She knew they were both adults. Adults who seemed comfortable enough with each other to share in holding the reins and she was handing the reins off to him now.
Go after what you want. Well, there was his permission. Not that her bringing them both to this quiet, secluded and very sweet little hideaway spot wasn't an invite in itself.
"Chasing?" Teejay said softly, voice low, humour still very much wrapped about the words. "Kinda thinking of using my energy for something more... intimate," he continued. Long dark fingers curled about Leah's waist and hips, strong arms lifted her upwards to allow her legs to find a hold around his waist and he moved in as close as he could get, roughly nuzzling her neck and ears. Nose against nose, mouth nibbling then seeking a deeper, harder kiss as he felt everything within him leap forwards with emotional excitement.
Yeah. Hell, yeah! "Need more naked," he breathed, softly into her ear as his hands strove downwards across pale, wet skin to southern nord.
Leah abandoned reason for madness as the nordic wolf fully awoke within her as she gave as good as she got, enjoying the opportunity to go all out and explore the hidden vestiges of desire. Both the cozy little beach and the water seemed enticing. Perhaps a bit of both? The fun was in finding out!
