Breathing heavily, his face still buried in her hair, Gambit fell limp on top of her, barely supporting his weight to not crush her under his body.

Shade gave a muffled sound of exhaution when his support gave way and he almost collapsed on her. Closing her eyes, she did nothing for a moment but being motionless and completely exhausted. She unhooked her leg and turned her head slightly, cradling her face at the side of his neck.

Regaining himself for a few long moments, Gambit rolled off her and lied down on his side next to her, holding one arm across her stomach. He was still catching his breath as he opened his eyes slightly to look at her with a small smile.

Shade had not moved much and mirrored the smile with her heart still pounding a lot faster than usual. She chuckled slightly seeing Gambit that breathless next to her and lifted a hand to brush a thumb over the stubble of his chin. "Damn, I missed you." she said, her voice still sounding somewhat breathless.

"No kiddin'," Gambit chuckled. He turned to his back and stared at the ceiling for a second, then folded his hand under his head.

Shade remained on her back for a moment, then shifted and lay her head on Gambit´s chest turning it so she could look at him. She felt dozy in a way she had to care not to drowse off for a moment and regarded him through half open eyes, feeling nothing but content and enjoying the closeness.

Gambit stroked her hair softly. There were several rather irrelevant questions on the tip of his tongue, but he brushed them all aside, not wishing to bother her with any of them right now. She was there with him, and he needed nothing else at the moment.

Shade leant in to his touch, closing her eyes again. Right now she felt no need to talk as feeling comfortable and somewhat sleepy had taken over most of her thinking. After a moment, she turned her head slightly, placing small kisses on Gambit´s chest, no needy ones, just kisses that rooted in affection and made them almost more an emotional than a physical thing.

Gambit smiled at that, still stroking her hair and playing with her locks. Using that small pause, he quickly looked around the room, taking in the details and studying the place he was in at the moment - a habitual thing for him, but something he had completely forgotted to do when he had entered the room with the wanting Shade all over him.
He also realized he had forgotten to put a condom on. It wasn't a pleasant thought, but there was no use in thinking about it now - if any consequences came, he'd deal (or, rather, not deal) with them later.

Shade watched him, a number of questions on the tip of her tongue. All of them had to do with Gambit´s absense, one of them was the question where he had gotten those cuts. They didn´t look like natural injuries for some reason and it got her wondering where he had gotten them. But it was a question that concerned his absense as well and as he had obviously not had too great a time judging from his earlier mood Shade pushed questions of that like back for the moment.
"I feel so lazy." she said, drawling the last two words. "I don´t think I might be able to motivate myself to even move." She smiled and let the fingers of one hand trace sleepy patterns near his collarbone.

Gambit turned on his side, making her lie on the back as he leaned above her. "Gambit can move ya any way ya like," he said.

Shade chuckled lightly, spreading her arms apart as if she wanted to show she was completely defenseless. "Good." she said smirking. "because Shade feels like her bones are somewhere else."

Gambit sat up, took her wrists and folded her arms to her chest and unfolded them back and forth several times. Then he tilted his head, as if studying an unfamiliar toy.

Shade tried to keep a straight face, but couldn´t help a chuckle. "Having fun?" she asked grinning.

"Non," Gambit said, "your knees don' bend forwards," he held her straight leg up to emphasize his point. "An' your arms don' tie into knots."
