Sweet as Sugar

"You don't have to say anything" Mu replied. "You'll know what to say if you need to say anything. That's how it works for me"

"Um, okay," Melly answered, looking up from his shirt.

Mu smiled and kissed the tip of her nose. "You're pretty Melly. You know that?"

"Um, yeah, thanks," Melly replied. She reached up to rub one of his ears. "You're cute."

Mu shivered lightly. "I like when you play with my ears." He purred.

"They're so soft and fuzzy. How could I not play with them?" Melly teased.

Mu purred and leaned forward to nuzzle at her neck.

Melly shivered a little, moving away from his ears and rubbing the base of his neck. "Yeah, that's good."

Still purring, Mu nipped at her neck lightly, kissing where the artery flowed just under the skin and feeling her pulse beat against his lips. His hands slipped down to her hips.

Melly gasped lightly and melted against him. "Mu..."

"Yes Melly?" Mu asked, his lips brushing her skin lightly with every syllable. "Is this alright?" He kissed her neck again.

"Mmm-hmm," Melly hummed back slowly, nodding.

"Do you like when I touch you here?" he asked, nipping and kissing a trail down her neck. He stopped when he got to the collar of her shirt.

"Yeah," she said with quickened breath. She began to stroke his tail. "Do you like that?"

"Yeah" Mu purred. He gently tugged the him of her shirt. "May I take this off Melly?" He asked. "I can take mine off too if you want"

Melly already-flushed face became darker. "A-Alright."

Mu gently pulled Melly's shirt off over her head. He simply undid the clasps on his own and slid it off his shoulders. He kissed her collarbone before nipping and then sicking at it. He was just going to leave a small mark, one that could be hidden under her shirt. His hands lightly traced her sides and his tail curled around them both.

Melly leaned forward, rubbing her cheek against his. She planted a shy kiss near his ear.

Mu's ear twitched. He released her collarbone and nuzzled her neck again. "Melly? Will you be my mate?" he asked softly, "If you don't want to stay my mate later that's fine, but I know you're my one. You're the only one for me"

"...Well, we've already gone this far," said Melly, leaning against him. "Might as well go all the way."

"We don't have to if you don't want to" Mu told her. "I don't want to force you"

Melly nuzzled him. "I guess...just this for now. Maybe more later. I'm not used to this kind of thing."

"Okay" Mu purred. He kissed the shell of her ear. "I do love you Melly" He whispered before ducking his head down to nip and kiss at her shoulder

Melly shuddered a bit at each nip. She began rubbing his ear again.

Mu's purring grew louder the longer she played with his ears. They were very sensitive to touch and sound alike.
