As the evening seemed to brighten up a bit, to the point where the only real reminder that L’ric had shown up at all, was the sore eye she had. She was ignoring it well enough, determined to pay it absolutely no attention since she was bound and determined to have a good evening. Their discussions returning to random thoughts from their past, joking about whatever else they decided to joke about. She was soon convinced that they had managed to turn a day that had almost been ruined by an inconsiderate friend… and made it so that those five minutes meant nothing. Which they really didn’t, and Erin was happy that way.
While they were cleaning up the kitchen, she had been debating with herself. Did she ask A’dam to stay the night, or should she try to get him to leave. The more she thought about it, the more she decided she wanted him to stay. It was nice having him there, and she was certain it would continue to be nice since they both lived at the hold. Even still… she decided that she didn’t want him to leave that night. There was always the next day!
With that thought in mind, she moved closer to him and slowly slid her arms around his waist. “Let her sleep, I don’t see it really being an issue. And, you don’t have to leave, you’re more than welcome to stay,” she offered, uncertain if he was trying to leave because he wanted to, or because he felt it was the only other thing to do. Of course, she would be perfectly happy with just about anything they decided to do at that point. She had to admit though, she was happy that things just seemed to feel… natural. At least to her, she was easily able to accept the idea of having a relationship with him.

A'dam was edging reluctantly toward the door when Erin stopped him by wrapping her arms around his waist. He didn't hesitate to wrap his arms around her in return and smile down at her. "Well....I suppose I could stay." He told her, the tone of his voice suggesting he was being forced into something but his smile and the look in his eyes told an entirely different story. "So what do you want to do now that you've got me all to yourself?" He questioned, sliding his hands up her back to gently massage her shoulders as he leaned in for a kiss. "I'm glad you're here. I've missed you." He whispered before pressing his lips to hers.

Erin smiled as he wrapped his arms around her in return. She was more than happy to have him do so, and she chuckled at his “tortured” tone as he accepted the idea of staying a little longer. The question was, just what would they do? They had until… well… whenever! Thus, she looked at him and grinned. “Hmm… How about we see if I brought any wine with me and go relax in the living room?” she suggested, certain that she had snuck SOME wine with her from the weyr. Or, at the very least that they’d grabbed some while they were out shopping.
A soft smile touched her lips as he commented on missing her, although she didn’t respond right away. She was somewhat blocked from doing so as his lips pressed to her own, and she was certainly not about to argue with that. Easily she returned the kiss, holding it for a moment before she pulled away from him ever so slightly. “I’ve missed you too, A’dam, I’m glad you came over today,” she smiled at him before pressing her lips to his once more. They would make it to the living room eventually… there was clearly no rush!

He was happy with whatever she suggested and nodded when she mentioned relaxing with a glass of wine. "I'm pretty sure there's still wine left over from lunch. We can drink that if there's nothing else." There certainly wasn't enough there to get either of them drunk he'd only brought enough for a couple glasses after all.

Their kiss was short but sweet and he smiled when she pulled back and spoke. "I am too." Was all he managed to say before she mimicked his actions from a moment before and prevented further speech by kissing him. He lost himself in the feel of her lips on his for a moment before he broke the kiss and pulled away from her a little bit. "Go on. I'll pour us some wine and join you in the living room." He told her, giving her a gentle nudge and a smile. The living room was just as nice to make out in as the kitchen was.

Erin smiled as he agreed with her. The idea of the wine and just enjoying the evening as it went along. However, she wasn’t in much of a hurry as she enjoyed the kiss after cutting him off. When he pulled away, she smiled at him and nodded her head. “Okay,” she agreed easily before she kissed him on the cheek and moved off into the living room to get all settled. It was comfortable in the room and she was more than happy to sit down and relax for a bit. Her dragon was completely asleep and ignoring her rider.
While she was in the living room, Erin stretched herself and smiled as she thought about the course of events. Her friend had showed up, brought lunch with him, they’d decided to start a relationship, and aside from the few moments that resulted in her getting punched… she had to admit that it most certainly was a very good day.

A'dam took a moment to watch Erin leave the room and smiled to himself. As far as he was concerned, life was as good as it could possibly be right then. L'ric could go between for all he cared. Still smiling, he poured their wine and brought the glasses and the extra wine into the living area where Erin was waiting for him. He settled down next to her and offered up her glass of wine. "So. Now that you've got me all to your self what do you intend to do with me? I could think of a few different ways we could spend the rest of our evening but I'll let you decide." He told her, taking a sip of his wine to hide the mischievous grin on his face though the glint in his eyes was hard to hide. Clearly he was hoping Erin might pick up on one of his ideas and they could have a little fun but he'd go along with whatever she chose. He didn't want to rush things and push her away after all.

Erin smiled as he joined her, accepting the wine and taking a sip herself. At his question, she pretended to contemplate the options available to them. Hmm... what to do with him... She DID have him for the rest of the night, and she certainly enjoyed that thought of that. With that thought, she looked to him and grinned, "Hmm... wonder what we could possibly do to enjoy the rest of our night, since I do have you for the rest of the night," she teased him before she set her wine down on the table and kissed his cheek. She'd have kissed his lips, but he was too busy hiding his grin. Naturally, if he watched her eyes, he would notice the mischievous twinkle that was hidden there. Clearly, they were likely on the same page.

A'dam picked up on her teasing tone easily. He'd heard it often enough to be able to identify it any time of day. He smiled as she kissed his cheek and he had to be careful not to spill his wine as he shifted to set it down and capture her with his arms around her before she could retreat. "And who says you have me for the rest of the night hmm? I could leave any time I wanted to." Not that he would. That gleam in her eye said they were thinking along the same lines and he wasn't about to leave with that knowledge in his head. He smiled at her and leaned in to whisper in her ear. "Would you like some suggestions? Maybe...we could pick up where we left off in the kitchen?" He questioned, capturing her lips in his before she could actually respond.

Erin smiled, giggling for a second as he caught her before she could "escape". While she had no interest in the idea, it was still something he had prevented. She giggled at him, "Oh?" she questioned him, although it was clear that she was enjoying their evening together. It was even more clear that she was enjoying the idea of him noticing they were on the same page. Something that was further proven when he came up with a suggestion before kissing her. She was going to respond to him, but his method worked FAR better. Her arms wrapped around the man as she returned his kiss, enjoying the intimacy of it. What was more, was that she was enjoying the thought of knowing that he likely didn't want to go anywhere that night, despite his teasing.

A'dam was quite happy to feel Erin's arms around him as she returned his kiss. He broke away after a few moments and smiled at her from a few inches away. "I seem to remember us being in a similar situation about two turns ago. Some wine, some good friends...we had a little too much and snuck off...." He trailed off, refusing to mention L'ric catching them before they could do anything. Though it was very obvious what would have happened had he not interrupted them. Though plenty of the details were a little fuzzy, A'dam distinctly remembered needing to find his shirt before he returned to his weyr that night.

Erin smirked as he pulled away and commented on their previous time together. She couldn't remember much about it, since she was completely smashed that night and it was when she had gotten her one scar. However, she smiled at him. "Hmm... Perhaps we should pick up where we left off then? There is a distinct lack of someone around to interrupt us," she teased him, kissing him once more. In her mind, it seemed like a -very- good idea to her that they finish what they'd started two turns ago, even if she didn't remember the specifics that went with it.
