Over breakfast, Viktor had given Sasha strict instructions that she was only to gather ingredients from the marketplace, since the little elf had been wildly excited when Viktor told her they would have a guest for dinner - a female guest. The elf had been working tirelessly since their arrival to unpack as much of the trunks as possible while integrating his family heirlooms into their new home. At first, it had seemed odd to see the family crest tapestry hanging on the wall of the living room but Viktor had come to realize that it was the best place for it and it made him feel more connected with the old world to have it there where he could see it every day.
His day at the Ark went by quickly as he was busy with two litters of Crups that had arrived that morning, and he had begun training to work with the Chinese Fireballs. That part of his day had been equally interesting and enjoyable since he had been able to work with Charlie Weasley directly. Not that Viktor minded working with any of the Senior Keepers but Charlie was an old friend from the war and his light grasp of Romanian gave Viktor more ease to communicate. Viktor was, however, careful not to mention his date for that evening - he loved Charlie like a brother but he did not wish to compete with the ginger for a woman's affections, and certainly not a beauty like Alicia.
Apparating back to his front porch just before 5:30 pm, Viktor took off his boots by the front door and left them outside as they were caked in mud. He was drenched to the skin from the series of downpours throughout the day but he stripped off his t-shirt and jeans in the ensuite and took a hot shower. Miko watched him from his bed while Viktor stood in front of his closet making selections of clothing. Finally, he chose a pair of black trousers and a blue button-down shirt, fastening the cuffs as he pushed his feet into a pair of loafers. It was casual enough not to say 'formal' and yet 'formal' enough to imply a date and not an evening between friends. Viktor had every desire to continue his burgeoning friendship with the blonde witch but he also intended to push the envelope of romance to see if she was agreeable.
Starting dinner cooking just after 6 pm, Viktor went around and lit a few candles to add some level of comfort to the room. The datapad was set on the coffee table and he had discovered the stored music application, queuing it to play some Tchaikovsky on a low setting. Miko followed him into the living room and made herself comfortable on the spare chair, watching him silently as he surveyed the rooms for any flaw. Sasha had set the table and she was now fussing over the sweet loaf of cheese bread she'd made for dessert. Viktor checked the time - just ten minutes to 7 now and decided that, if things went well, he would break into his personal cache of coffee later on to share with Alicia.

His parents had enjoyed a marriage of deep love and respect right up to their deaths and Viktor had vowed at their graves that he would settle for nothing less to continue their legacy. When she finished, however, Viktor saw that they were still in agreement and that was enough for him.
Bending his head slightly, Viktor paused just an inch from her lips and then slanted his over hers in a warm, questioning kiss, drawing her firmly to his body with the hand at the small of her back. It was slow and exploring, hot and languid, pouring heated desire into every inch of his body as it drew out. He was reluctant to break the kiss, the spark of chemistry flaring into a wall of fire, but Viktor did, finally, drawing back with darkened gaze and heavy breath. "Haff you more of des breaks of deal?" he asked huskily.

Date: 2012-11-20 05:58 am (UTC)Being this close to Viktor, watching him listening to her, it was unlike any seduction Alicia had ever experienced. On some level it almost felt as if they were negotiating their way into turning their mutual attraction into something deeper, and yet it still felt completely unavoidable at the same time. Unlike her own parents, who had grown up next door to each other and started dating as teenagers whenever her dad had been home from Hogwarts, she was settling any potential differences that could interfere with a shared future with someone she had only just met.
For just a moment, Viktor's lips hovered so enticingly close to her, yet still without touching her that Alicia thought he might be waiting for her to close the distance. He moved just as she tilted her head that last inch, meeting him, meeting his kiss by inviting him in. Her fingers slipped between his on her neck, while the fingers of her free hand curled around the fabric of his shirt. She swallowed down a soft moan, making her breath hitch in her throat just moments before she let go and gave herself completely to the kiss. The kiss ended with a soft sigh, and Alicia licked her lips, tasting Viktor there, before she opened her eyes to look at him. "No," she chuckled, shaking her head slightly, trying to clear her mind again. "No, I think I got them all." Without thinking, she reached up and caressed the tip of her finger against the corner of his mouth and down along the line of his beard to his chin.

Viktor couldn't even chuckle at her soft moan, feeling swept up in the kiss, a mixture of need and a flare of want. This was a dance he'd never done before - working toward a proper courting - and he didn't want to misstep but her taste was intoxicating. And the soft look in her eyes when he drew back tested his resolve not to push too quickly. He smiled as her fingertip traced along the edge of his beard, turning his head just the smallest bit to let her finger continue. "Good, good," he chuckled.
Reaching up, he caught her hand and lifted it, palm up to press a warm kiss there, then another to the curve of her delicate wrist, before returning it to his chest. It was an enormous struggle to pull his focus back from the desire to kiss her again but he knew if he continued doing that now, then it was likely they would end up in bed sooner rather than later. "Let us sit, da? Sasha vill bring kaffee," Viktor asked, glancing toward the sofa and back to meet her gaze. "und ve... talk more. Tell me of vhat you do."
