[ It's been slow and rapid build-up for a little while now, first one, then more and more so the other, and he's nearly to a breaking point already. She pulls him closer, and he stays closer, each move of his both against and into hers creating and maintaining contact along several points. He's not sure how much more in contact they could even be right now, just that he loves it, and doesn't want it to stop. Her words pattern themselves after his own efforts, it seems like, with all of his stuttering and arhythmic movement echoed in the fragments of her sentences and the fractures of her phrasing. He doesn't care though - he almost can't even hear her anymore, so lost in her as he is, and he suddenly realizes how close he is, how much he ought to pull back and how little it would take to push him over.
And then he feels her in his mind, the care and desire and openness of her, and he can't, just, that's it. He stills for a moment, rigid and continuing to hold her up as he comes over the edge, a few seconds of stillness before he - not quite gingerly but - haltingly begins to move again, trying to make sure she gets the same end. In that moment, his lack of movement, when he toppled over he had no shielding up at all. It's a skill he still needs to learn, but at that moment, his sensation and all of his own bottled emotions were there for her to read, and the way she was already in his mind likely happened to expedite the process. ]
