[Perhaps there will be a day in the future that they can spare more than stolen kisses. For now, truly, Dedue could not ask for more. This alone still makes it feel like he is being spoiled by Dimitri. With the legs around his waist, Dedue nuzzles against his neck, embracing his future king.]
Do not let me keep you for much longer.
[After all, it is late, and they are but human beings. Dimitri will need sleep.]
[ His cheeks flush. Is that an invitation? Or is he reading too much into it? He grasps at Dedue's hand as he slides off of the task, not willing to let him go just yet. ]
[For a moment, Dedue focuses on their hands holding one another, and he adjusts the grip so that their fingers are intertwined. Thankfully, being in the library, they aren't too far from Dimitri's room.
Gently, he squeezes Dimitri's hand, then guides the pair of them out.
The academy is quiet, the most sound coming from outside with patrolling knights. The inside, however, is silent save for themselves. Good, he'd hate to cause trouble for Dimitri. He guides him onward toward his room.]
[ Dimitri follows, trying not to hurry. Not to appear too eager. That wouldn't do, would it? But when he glances at Dedue's face in the lamplight he thinks he could die, right then and there. He's so... handsome. Beautiful. And Dimitri is privileged enough to see the smile that sometimes graces his features. So he cannot wait. Doesn't want to. When he reaches his room, he opens the door and tugs Dedue in after him, not wanting him to go anywhere - and once he's in, he leans up to press another kiss to his lips. Needy. Wanting. ]
[Truthfully, he wasn't going to assume that Dimitri would have him in his room, but he's quietly glad that's how it's become. He makes sure to push the door closed behind him before he's gently cupping Dimitri's cheek to pull him near, kissing him back.
He could never asked for more.]
Dimitri-- [Another eager, brief kiss.] Tell me what I can do for you.
[ He can't answer that. It seems impossible. There's too much. His head is whirling and he can't even begin to think clearly. He takes a step back, tugs on Dedue's jacket to urge him to follow. ]
I don't know. Just - let me touch you?
[ He's blushing again, redfaced and excited and out of sorts. ]
[Anything that Dimitri would ask for, he'd give gladly. If it was just holding him or more, Dedue would be happy for it. So, as always, he follows after his prince.]
Of course. [He presses his lips to Dimitri's temple.] However you want me. I am happy for it.
[ Dimitri sinks onto the edge of his bed, sitting and still holding Dedue's hands. He tugs him down so he can lean up to press another kiss against his lips. What does he want right now? Just to be close? Something more? Everything feels new and exciting and overwhelming. ]
[Easily, Dedue allows himself down by Dimitri's guidance, eagerly finding his prince's lips and kissing them, step by step more confident and comfortable with it. Just once tonight would have almost given the illusion of it being a memory, but the amount of times by now is reassuring of otherwise.
He only lets his lips part from Dimitri's so he can sit next to him. Their lips rejoin and he is content like this, or whatever Dimitri wishes to ask for. If it were possible, Dedue would give him the sun.]
[ Dimitri feels precisely the same - he would give Dedue anything. Everything. It's a heady, overwhelming feeling and he doesn't know where it ends or how he sorts it out now. His head is spinning and he laughs (almost drunk) as he presses against Dedue's side. ]
I... know it's a risk. But would you mind staying a little while longer?
[ Dedue's smile is a relatively rare occurrence and when it's meant entirely for him as it is in this moment, Dimitri feels as if his heart might burst. ]

Maybe if we don't sleep, morning will stay very far away for a little while longer.

[He would shower Dimitri with as much adoration as he asked for. However much affection Dedue could spare, he would give it so gladly.]
If nothing else, let me take you to your room. Unless you still have work to be done here, despite my distinct interruption.
