The artist's model part 2 (For TheWamts)

"I totally agree, you fill the void with other things." the art student said.

When she nuzzled up to him he smiled and put his nose and lips onto her hair.
"Well I'll stay by you Lia, come hell or high water as they say. The AFW is gonna be bowled over by our combined skill." he said.

He'd then playfully lift an arm to begin tickling her.

"Hmm... Well you're gonna have a lot of holes to fill for me if we're gonna try to pull that off. And I don't mean on the bed.", Lia said in a statement that somehow put herself down and made her smile mischievously simultaneously.

When John went in to tickle her, Lia started laughing right away, her soft voice filling the small room, and she went to hug him, her body shaking as the tickling sensation grew more and more.

John sighed in content when Lia wrapped her arms around him, his cheek brushed hers.
"Oh Lia I can't wait to begin my time in this league." he muttered to her.

He then noticed the laptop and said "Say Lia do you have any DVD's?"
The art student hoped she had some sort of romantic comedy they could watch together, it would not only
kill time but let them cuddle up as they watched it.

"Hmm... Nope, sorry! But I could see what's on my laptop. I have a bunch of older movies on the drive, since I couldn't afford anything like a TV. You aren't going to arrest me for pirating, are you?", ending the sentence with a small joke.

She kissed John once more, softly on the cheek, before walking over to her laptop. It was a pretty old model, a Lenovo Thinkpad T60. "I got this as a giveaway, the guy that was using it didn't need it anymore, and I can sorta see why. It's not fast and the screen's a bit fuzzy in the corners, but it's all I have for now. Ok... Movie folder... Romantic movies... Hmm... never really got around to watching them, I just got a bunch from the web for the flight over to Japan. Let's see... there's this one called Bewitched, no that's a bit young...", Lia called out a few more movie names while flipping through a reasonable library of movies from the net. "Ok, this one seems OK. It's called "[url=http://viooz.co/movies/2670-before-sunset-2004.html:2sinr09t]Before Sunset[/url:2sinr09t]", this good with you?"

Lia wasn't really the type who liked to sit still and watch movies, but in the company of John, it would be alright.

John smiled as he held Lia close to her, the movie seemed to be one of those where it was how love never goes away no matter the time.
His hands were around her hips, with his face lightly resting on her chin. He kept his gaze focused on the movie with the occasional glance downward at her.

"Sometimes ambiguous endings work well, Butch Cassidy and the sundance kid spring to mind for me." he muttered as the credits rolled.

Then he'd look at the time and say "Woah I reckon we should maybe his the sack here, I got to get to my apartment tomorrow and head to college. So I reckon we'll need an early night if that's good with you babe?" The art student would stand up and hold Lia's hand.

The movie played and Lia watched. It was actually pretty good, the ending especially. "[color]Hmm... It's pretty nice when you have a lot of options, isn't it? Life's a lot more exciting when you get choices to work with.[/color]" Lia smiled and kissed John as he pulled her up.

"Ok! I guess we'll share the bed, although it's kinda small for two people, sorry." She didn't mind curling up into the bed with John of course. The two walked into the bedroom, and the bed really was small, more of a raised futon. "Let me go shower up first, alright? I'd invite you but...", ending it with a sly note.

"It's cool, I don't mind curling up to fit in the covers." John said.

He saw Lia's sly smile when she talked about the shower and he said "Well if there's enough room I'd share with you. But if there ain't I'll just take it easy."

With that John would take his shirt off as well as his jeans, folding them neatly near the bed as he did so.

"Oh well, the showers actually pretty roomy if you bend just right, you know." giggling a bit at the end. That was about as teasing that Lia was comfortable openly being, even for someone that got closer than anyone had been to her. She took off her clothes, even knowing that John was still in the room, reflecting that she had been wearing them for a good 2 days now.

Then, walking into the bathroom, she put her clothes into a basket for washing later and left the door just open purposefully, when she turned on the water. Even just yesterday, Lia would probably have panicked if anyone tried to climb into the shower with her, and certainly wouldn't have invited anyone, indirectly or otherwise.

John sighed as he saw Lia walk into the shower, stark naked as well.
"I stand at the door to bliss, how can I refuse?" he thought to himself.

The art student would remove his shirt and outfit and walk to the doorframe.
"If you don't mind, I can soap you up." he muttered to her as he leaned on it. His eyes gazing at her own.

"Sure... come on in...", Lia said in her tone of childlike playfulness, somewhat out of place given what she was offering, but whatever. The shower stall, despite her earlier words, was indeed very small. Thankfully, it had no walls of any sort, just a curtain that she rarely used anyways and a small ledge to keep the water from going everywhere.
