On the night of a blackout the jambuds play a game of same letter.

“Red”

“Durian”

It was a summer night at Steven’s place. The gems were out.

“Nice”

“Is that your word, Biscuit?”

Greg was out on the road..

“I get 10 seconds for a word, Berry”

“5 now ..4..3..”

Electricity was out, but so was the moon.

“Night.”

“T..T..”

“8..7..6″

The Jam buds was playing a word game: Same letter, to pass the time in the dome. The moonlight shining down on them. Connie, slouching on the bean bag and Steven, sitting on the floor, head on her lap…

“Tough.”

“Tough? Really”

The category of the round….History.

“How much times have you nearly died, Biscuit.”

Their history.

“Fair…so H”

“6..5..4..”

“Hair.”

“Hair?”

Steven rubbed his slightly fuzzed face with a devilish smirk, causing Connie to cough, slightly warming her face.

“Hair…So R.”

“6..5..4..3″

Connie smirked as she traced his jawline tenderly. “Rugged,”

Steven chuckled nervously his face turning red.. ”Umm Rugged…”

“Eeight..sseven..sssixxx″

Oh oh...So that what she was trying to do..The way she was counting so slow, looking down so gently yet predatory.

Connie was on her teasing kick..He wasn’t going to lose his cool to her… Even though the moon did give her black eyes a heart pulsing gleam.

‘and those damn kissable lips are getting closer.’

“Threeee..Two..on-”

‘Dazzling’

Connie stopped before licking her lips with a smirk and arched an eyebrow. Steven pointed towards her eyes. He spoke with convention and truth.

“Dazzling”

He heard her heart skip a beat, chuckling as she turned to look away. Tapping her feet in embarrassment. 

“8 berries…7 berries…6..

Connie breathed through her nose as she looked at his smirking face counting down slowly. 

‘Oohh! This smug..Sexily smug man…Nope focus Maheswaran..Don’t get distracted…G..G..what can I..Use..Oh-hohoho! i got it.’

“3..berr-”

“Gamy”

Steven stopped mid countdown and looked confounded.

“You calling me meat?”

Connie frozed for a moment before she started to giggle; biting her bottom lip as attempt to stop. Unfortunately his look of true confusion made her laugh from her belly and sides. Steven, for his part, climbed over her looking down at the smirking, teary-eyed girl. His hands behind her head and legs in between her thighs, leering down.

She soon wasn’t laughing though, turning a bit red as he got closer to her face, realizing that she might have miscalculated in her teasing.

“What? You saying I’m a meal?.”

“Pfft no..”.

She smirked impishly and gave him a quick once over.

“Well..Maybe, but gamy has more than one definition.”

“Oh…And what one of those defined me?”

His smirk combined with that deep voice, made her lip quiver and excitement flash in those beautiful blacks of hers. The mischievous glint in his brown eyes didn’t help her composure much, sending a shiver down her spine, a very anxious one.

“Mmm..t-ten.”

So she chose to fight.. Fine by him, not like it wasn’t expected.

“Yielding”

Connie look up at him with accusatory eyes, determined defiance burning in them.

“Name one time, I yielded to anyone."

She gulped as Steven moved close enough that his breath could be felt on her lips...That she could feel his lips brush against hers if he so much as talked.

"Now.”

She was trapped.

’Oh..Oh…I might have bottom tendencies.’

and she liked it.

She blushed a deep auburn as she felt a phantom touch on her lips, grabbed the bean bag chair in her fist, feeling heat rised inside by his actions.

“You’re.. proving my point, ya know.”

oh stars, she was weakening and quickly. She sounded so submissive. With their posture and his smirking, smell and voice..OH STARS, THAT DAMN VOICE.

‘Get it together Maheswaran! You started this, see it Throoooo-Ohhhh nooho..!’

He moved from her lips to her ear, and she felt his breath on her earlobe causing her chest to tighten and toes to curl. She couldn’t even hear what he said cause she was too busy with her heart beat in her head.

“3. ”

She was melting under him.

“2..”

It was a good melt. 'Wait. why’s he counting again?’

"1..You looo~se."

She nodded in agreement to his sing song voice blissfully…before realizing exactly what was said.

Steven gave her quick raspberry on her temple, before rising up off her; smiling like the cat who ate the canary as Connie in a state of confusion looked up at him twitching a bit in blissful anger, red faced holding the back of her head, but refusing to move her body.

just as she was about to speak, he pressed his index middle to her soft lips. Getting small whimper out of her. With a small evil smile he gently removed the fingers and kissed them.

"I’ll take this as my prize.. Oh berry flavored lip gloss.”

He turned to exit seeing that the gems and electricity has returned from the dome as he exit he gave her a blushing grin.

“And the only reason I’m 'Gamy'...Is because you’re yummy”

With that he left leaving a shocked, disheveled and very..heated…. Connie. Who felt back fanning herself with a smile. Yes, she planned on making him pay. Making him squirm.. but for now…

“oh mujhe chodo!”

She was gonna bask in the moonlight.

Score: Steven:2 Connie:1
