Bumping back, Silvio drew her hand up to his lips, pressed a kiss to the back. "Didn't say you were easy," he teased, grinning at her widely. "And it's your honor I'm thinking of peserving where the Bowl is concerned. Because after all, I'm a wily, charming Caminar and I might convince you that right there in the Bowl is a good idea," he continued, humor threading through his voice still.
The request about the ocean lifted his brows a little but he released her hand only to slide his arm around her shoulders comfortably. "I promise, we'll go together the first time and scandalize anyone who is around."

“True enough,” Genet answered with a merry laugh. “You’re the easy one of us, Golden Boy. Hardly hard to get at all.” She teased him with a sly smile just wanting to know what he would do or say in return. As for her honor she laughed again. “Silvio? I ride green and will hear worse than what they might say if they catch us kissing. Do you think I care? I will defend my honor as I see fit.” The weyrling tossed her head as she said that sending short chestnut locks flying this way and that.
More silence after his promise about the ocean and there was a smile on her lips, one wholly inappropriate, as she said, “But feel free to try to convince me sometime.” There were corners of the bowl not used often where, at night, a couple might tuck themselves away out of sight after all. And for the ocean she left him with just one sentence. “Good because I want to swim naked in the ocean with you.” One completely innocent sentence followed by a cheerful, “So, when you are good enough you will make me something right? I need earrings to match my pendant.” As if she had not just been talking about nudity.

"What fun would it be, playing hard-to-get?" Silvio quipped, grinning over at Genet. "Wouldn't be honest either," he admits with a wink and gave her shoulders a little squeeze. "It's not the kissing I'd be worried about he continued and ducked her flying hair. "See, now, /that/ is what I'm talking about," he said with a waggle of eyebrows her way, what with the convincing and the naked swimming.
"When I've got the skills, I'll deck you out like you were the Weyrwoman," Silvio says, grin turning lopsided. "You'll have to tell me what you like though, other than that amber."

“What’s the matter, tough guy?” Genet teased with a bright smile. “Afraid you can’t hold out as long as I can? That a poor little greenrider would get the best of you?” Goading him was maybe not the wisest way to spend the time on their walk back, but it was so much fun! And if she didn’t trust him she wouldn’t be doing it.
And there would be why she had no desire to let him go. Well, it would be unfair to say it was just because he promised to deck her out in jewels, but she was honest enough to admit that likely had something to do with it. “I don’t know,” she answered honestly. “Just pretty stuff. Gold because it’s so shiny and warm. And everything has to match my pendant because I never take it off.” There was a pause that she allowed to go on just long enough. Then she uttered one word, but those two syllables were as loaded with desire as any they’d shared earlier at the frozen waterfall. “Ever.”

Merry laughter echoed. Silvio's for her goading. "Wouldn't even try to, if I didn't care about you so much," he answered truthfully, about holding out and turned to make merry with lips at her ear. "Pretty. Warm colors. Got it," he murmured and kept right on with the naughty even as the Weyr's tunnel entrance swung into view and the walk neared its end.

When the tunnel came into view Genet came to a stop expecting Silvio to stop with her. “Wait,” she said and grabbed both his hands in hers. All teasing dropped from her tone and she looked at him earnestly. “I want you to know,” she began quietly, “That no matter what happens or where you might wind up in the end,” or with who goes unspoken there as she pauses to take a breath and continue. “I want you to know that I will always be here for you.”
It was, she thought, maybe what love was supposed to be in some way. But she just couldn’t say the words until she was sure and she feared never being sure. So she settled for what she could say. When she finished she gave him a rather chaste kiss before taking her hands from his and turning to run for the tunnel. She was going to be late as Anquilith informed her H’gar and Baristath were there for their nightly check.

Wait she said and wait he did, stopping promptly. Silvio looked at her for what might pass for a long time in the wake of those words and he only smiled, started to hug her lightly as she leaned in for that too-short kiss. And then she was gone and running and he could guess why, so he only watched her go, admiring in fact, the way she ran then peeled off towards the far side of the Weyr and the wagon he shared with Aleda.
She looked up as he came in and just grinned. "Here, have a drink," she told him and passed over a glass of grog to tide him over until the next time he saw the weyrling.
