Once Riley had calmed down somewhat, felt his heartbeat slowing, his breath becoming less erratic. He removed his teeth from their vice-grip on Tao's neck and he pressed a gentle kiss to his skin. He rested his forehead against Tao's jaw, silent for a minute until he also realized what was happening with the body beneath him. His eyes opened and he pushed himself up on his elbows, propping himself above Tao. It was dark, under the sheet, but Riley could still see fairly well, and it gave the space between them a cool, dark feeling. "So you do breathe." He said softly, and pressed an affectionate kiss to Tao's lips, as if he was trying to capture that magical breath for himself.
