Leverage was a universal force, and it's why her tactic worked whether he try to correct it via speed or not.
"None, but you have 2 seconds" Green-eyes narrowed, bright and focusing on her, mouth twisted in a cross between smirk and scowl. "before I" It was in a hundred little cues, when he realized their position. Just how close their faces were, how she was pinning his hips down for leverage. How she bent against him to issue that challenge, with their arms pinned. "throw..you..." Trailing off, his mind having just realized quite a few things.
Not the least of which that he had a woman he was attracted, pinning him to the ground. That his the adrenaline of battle was still flowing in his veins but changing to a different heat. The transformed state was not helping, considering he was always a little more reckless, more in touch with the hotter emotions like anger...
"Before you...?" she said, daring him to finish that sentence. Her eyes practically sparkled thanks to the glow from him reflected in them, and her breath was warm against his lips. Go on, Trunks. What, precisely, were you going to do?
Well, he had been planning to throw her off of him. Then a better idea had occurred to him, and while neither he nor Morag had any real experience with dating... She had to know what she was doing.
So hopefully it wasn't a surprise, as his head tilted slightly to the side as he leaned up and in. Eyes closed, energy thrumming around them and through him, to meet her lips in a kiss. No hesitation or hints of shyness as there had been at other times.
No. It wasn't exactly a surprise. Strange, perhaps even weird, and she was so completely out of her depth that a small part of her felt nothing but terror... but wasn't the purpose of sparring to improve a skill, to get better, to make the actions more natural and become more confident in them?
She lowered her head to meet him, catching his mouth with hers quite willing to return that kiss with warmth and delight both.
Granted this usually wasn't what sparring was used for.
Lips to lips, with only the barest of movement in the form of soft tastes and sharing breath. Banked heat and fire from them both, and so at odds with the tension of their bodies, hard muscle still keeping plasma blades at bay.
The feeling of their bodies still locked together, and both of them half-aware that slacking their attention would lead to the other taking advantage on that score, added a particular spark to this. Her kiss started to challenge, as if she was gradually considering this another path towards victory -- or perhaps she simply wasn't as cool and dispassionate as she claimed to be.
It was a wonder she couldn't feel or hear his heartbeat, as he could hear hers. Elevated, likely from their sparring earlier although part of him hoped it was staying high for other reasons. The feel of her kiss changed, and he met her implied challenge easily. Mouth slanted against and over her own, with a low noise in his throat and echoing through him.
Out of instinct, she opened her mouth slightly, parting her lips to deepen the kiss. Somehow, the context of sparring made this -- easier, more comfortable, more so than had their meeting in the closet. Battle was her element, after all. But she'd never been quite so aware of the solid strength of an opponent, especially not beneath her...
Battle was his element too, in some ways--but his heart had always been more human than saiyan. Right then he wasn't sure what he wanted, other than to keep kissing her. That low sound resolved itself into a faint hum of pleasure. Part of him wanted to yield and wrap an arm around her, pull her lithe curves and lean muscle against him further. The competitive part of him knew that she wouldn't yield though--she'd press her advantage the minute he let go of her blade or relaxed his guard.
Ironically, here she was thinking the same thing in reverse -- if she showed the weakness and grabbed him more thoroughly, he'd take that opportunity to claim victory. Maybe, just a little, she wanted to stun him breathless with this kiss, to make him just dazed enough that he wouldn't exploit the littlest lapse on her part.
But then again, he was proving quite the challenger in this respect as well.
They were at a deadlock, ever bit as much as they had been before. Several other times too, although before their wizard-aided encounter, Trunks had always backed off. Shied away and tense, worried his presence was unwanted.
He was quite sure his presence was very wanted right then. Mouth moving with and against her own, chest rising and falling as he breathed against her. Maybe she wasn't making him dazed, but exploiting her guard the way she worried about was far from his thoughts. "Morag..." Lower-voiced with a slight hiss, and a hint of teeth against her bottom lip.
The scrape of teeth, however gentle, startled a noise out of her that wasn't quite a gasp and wasn't quite a little moan. Her eyes snapped open in surprise, though she certainly gave no indication that the surprise was unwelcome!
"We've already discussed that I have no idea what I'm doing," she said, low and pleasantly rough.
That made a half-smile, half-smirk come to his mouth. Amused and with a low-chuckle. "Oh I know where this is going, but only academically." As if he was perfectly comfortable---which he wasn't.
He had an attractive woman whom he very much would like to hold closer, straddling his hips and keeping his arms pinned because of her own deadly-weapons. That she knew very well how to use, which is part of why he was attracted to her. Nothing about that was comfortable, but he couldn't think of anywhere else he'd rather be.
She didn't expect the tightness in her throat, enough so that it was almost painful, for sure. "Trunks," she said, almost sounding hesitant. "May I make a suggestion that, perhaps, goes against both our natures?"
A golden-brow arched, green eyes narrowed further and studied her face. Specifically, her open mouth. Another heartbeat, and he nodded, not trusting his own voice.
Heat blazed in green-eyes, energy crackling along his frame in response. Letting her blade go from where he'd gripped it when she'd struck, the ki in that hand dissipating save for the amount he was using to maintain the transformation. Which moved to brush her hair back, against her cheek--so very softly.
"I yield." Murmured softly, before his mouth met hers once more. His pride not so great, even if he was competitive, to not give her the victory. Knowing her well enough to know what suggesting that had cost.
She opened her hand and let both blades drop into the grass, then pulled her arm out from in between the two of them so she could grip his shoulder. Once she could settle in, she did just that, legs dropping to the ground on either side of him so she could properly lean into the kiss and press herself against him.
Relaxing, letting his blade drop too when hers was no longer an issue. Sliding that arm along her back and pressing her closer. Settling along with her, in a way, keeping her curves against him. Cupping her cheek to keep her close, lips moving softly over her own.
"Morag..." Murmured, voice low, against the corner of her mouth. "...do you want me to stay like this?" A deliberate flare, careful of her, of his ki aura surrounding them both. Heat, soft pressure, but no pain.
"Your choice." She couldn't help but kiss him again between sentences, a long slow thing that kept her from finishing her thought for a while. "Either way you're you."
That brought another low chuckle, felt against her mouth as well as heard. Leaning in to kiss her again, corner of her mouth, cheek, brushing his nose with hers in a nuzzle. Letting the energy go slowly. Not that there was any need one way or the other really--but there were other things he'd much rather concentrate on right then.
That worked. Satisfied, as she would have been either way, she hummed her approval against his lips and then pressed in for a fiercer kiss. Time to let out that competitive energy another way!
Was it really competitive energy though? Certainly both were letting out hints of their inner fire, living in the moment and how nice this was. Holding each other close, Trunks having no objections to basically laying on the ground, with her on top of him. At least--no objections while his brain was occupied.
Said Brain was not entirely being listened to, in favor of focusing on the warmth of her lips and mouth, sent of her skin and feel of her hair. Nuzzling her cheek and brow, against her ear and neck, hands at her shoulder and waist rubbing soft circles, and fingers moving along her spine.
It took quite a bit before his brain finally got an order to be followed, being that Trunks leaned his head back on the ground. Breathing, blue-eyes half-opened and somewhat dazed, with a soft smile on his face and holding her close. At least until the full situation hit him, which is when he blushed fully crimson again, and made a little noise of embarrassment.
