nearly exposed;; ilyana

[austin garett abarno]

Austin Abarno walked back into the Stryder flat after his run. He had definitely made himself at home over the past few weeks that he’s been living there. For the most part, the Stryders seemed alright with it. Carleigh was a little annoying though, always trying to flirt with him and make a move. Aus just couldn’t do it. Felicity would certainly toss him out of the house. She didn’t seem too pleased about this month long sleepover that they were having, but if she really wanted him out, all she had to do was ask. He wouldn’t mind renting a room somewhere near by. It wouldn’t be too much of an issue. He just liked being there when Ilyana came home from school. It was nice seeing her again.

Austin headed straight for the shower. After all, he pretty much just ran around the whole entire city. His wolf stamina allowed him to run almost three times more than the normal athlete. It was a nice run overall. He got the chance to explore a bit, get out and see the city. The weather was nice, still a little colder and more damp than his hometown, but he was learning to deal with it even if it made his fur stand up weird. The guy stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around his waist, strutting out of the bathroom. He felt good, his muscles were a bit fatigued, but that just showed that he got a good workout. Walking into the living room, Austin plopped down on the couch, clicking on the television to watch the football game.

Technically, Ilyana was meant to have been at school all day and working on something or other in some class. However, as soon as she had woken up, she had come to the quick realization that it just didn't seem like a good day for classes. Not that any day really did, but that day in particular she just didn't care. Ilyana was a good enough student, she did her work and only skipped out sometimes, so not showing up once in awhile wasn't that big of a deal for her and wouldn't make that much of a difference overall. So, instead of hitting up whatever classes she had left after she'd woken up, Ilyana turned herself right back around, went back into her dorm and packed things up for the weekend at home. It took a bit of wandering to find what she wanted from around the dorm before she left, but she was soon ready to leave.

Quickly heading up the stairs to the outside of the castle, Ilyana made the quick jog over to Hogsmeade so that she could apparate back to the flat. She wasn't sure if Austin would be there, since he generally did his own thing while she was away, but she was definitely hopeful that he might be there. Opening up the door to the house, a grin appeared on her face when she heard some football game playing in the back. Definitely her Aussie, since Carleigh wouldn't be watching a sport at any point and Felicity wouldn't be home that early. Tossing her bag on the floor where she had walked in, Ilyana walked out into the living room, a huge grin on her face when she saw Austin on the couch in nothing more than a towel. That was something she could get used to setting every day. Hopping up over the couch, she landed next to him, throwing her arms around him in a tight hug. "Looking good, Aussie," she said before giving him a light peck on the cheek. "I'm glad you're home."

There was nothing like a good football game after a workout. It had been part of his routine for as long as he could remember. After any sort of activity there was always a game on. If it wasn’t football, it was hockey or quidditch. Those were his top three. His brain was engulfed in the game, so the door opening and a bag being tossed to the floor totally didn’t catch his attention. In fact, he didn’t even know that anyone entered the flat until a familiar sweet scent caught his attention and arms were being wrapped around him. “Ayee, you know that’s my job, laying here looking hella sexy,” he said with a charming smile.

“What are you doing home this early? Shouldn’t you be in class or something?” Austin asked, wrapping his arms around her, pulling her into his chest. Forget the game, Ilyana was home. She was more important than football, obviously. He planted a kiss on the top of her head and smiled. “But yeah, I’m glad you’re here too. It’s definitely weird being here with Felicity or by myself. Carleigh hasn’t been coming home as often and I can’t tell if that’s a good thing or a bad thing.”

[ilyana lethe stryder]

There was certainly no denying that Austin looked way more than hella sexy at the moment. Ilyana had seen him without his clothes many times before, but that didn't make it any less breathtaking each and every time. He literally was perfect and the grin on her face made that perfectly obviously. "Well, keep it up, Aussie. You're damn good at what you do," she retorted with a wink as she leaned back slightly. Giving him an innocent smile as he mentioned class, she simply let him pull her into his chest, breathing in the musky smell that he always seemed to have. It was a werewolf thing, probably, but he had that natural scent that she was always attracted to.

Letting her head rest against his chest, Ilyana snuggled in next to him in a comfortable position. "I should, but I missed you," she replied with a shrug. Missed him, didn't feel like it, there were plenty of perfectly valid excuses that she could use as to why she was there at the house and not in her classroom. Whatever the case, it was much better being there with Austin and she wouldn't have wanted anything else. "Yeah, I don't know what's going on with that girl. She seems all normal now, but I think it's good," she commented, quite hoping that she was right. Seeing Carleigh not drunk and not screwing around random guys all the time was kind of a relief. She'd never openly admit to it, but she was kind of starting to really care about her and Felicity. "So, Aussie boy, what are our plans for the weekend?" she asked, smiling up at him with excitement.

[/blockquote][/blockquote]

[austin garett abarno]

Austin nodded in approval. That little wink and the smile were like drugs to him. He just couldn't get enough. It made him feel high, better than anything else. He couldn't help but to wrap his strong arms around her in an embrace. "That little innocent smile, it kills me yanno," a corner of his mouth pulled into a half smile as he spoke. It was true. He was hopelessly falling for her. He couldn't deny it. He didn't want her to ever leave him again. Those few months since she moved out of their home town had been terrible, a never ending downward spiral. Now that he was here though, things had pretty much picked up where they left off. Nothing had changed between the two of them.

"Missed you too, babe. You should stop by more often. I like seeing your face around," a slight chuckle escaped his lips. In the Stryder house, this boy was definitely drowning in estrogen. Things were alright when Ilyana was home and Colton was an alright dude, but Carleigh, damn, she just never shut up. The girl was constantly so drunk that it was a miracle if she remember her own name. Austin thought it was a bit pathetic. Whatever drove her to act like that must have been terrible because even he wouldn't do that to himself. "Ehh, I'd be a little skeptical about this whole 'normal' phase that she's going through. She's come home more shitfaced than I could ever dream of."

"Hmm. I dunno. I was thinking I could make dinner tonight. Maybe tomorrow you can give me the official run down of the town, yeah? And then Sunday, I'll let you decide what we do," a smirk played across his lips as he spoke before pressing them to hers, running his fingers through her hair.

[ilyana lethe stryder]

After being away from Austin for so long, Ilyana had come to realize that he really was a big part of her life. She'd never really considered settling down into a serious relationship before, but now it was a bit different. Austin was more important to her than she had realized and being with just him wasn't such a bad thought to have. Of course, it wasn't something that Ilyana was going to bring up, but she had more or less stopped hooking up with anyone else, so that was just that. For her, at least, that was all it took. "Mmm, what can I say, most people are stunned by my angelic charm," she replied with a taunting smirk. Ilyana was anything but angelic, that was for sure, though that didn't stop her from acting like it were true.

Stopping around the house more often didn't sound like such a bad idea, though she had a feeling Felicity would be less than pleased to see her around all the time during the day. She already dealt with that phase with Carleigh, so she probably didn't want Ilyana hanging around and being a bad influence on the reforming girl. "I do have a nice face, don't I?" she joked, looking up at him with a silly grin on her face. "But, yeah, I know what you mean. I've kind of been trying to keep an eye on her to see if like, she's starting to regress, but nothing yet. We'll see." The Carleigh issue was something to worry about at a later time, since right now she was pretty happy to just sit there with Austin and talk about their plans for the weekend.

The fact that Austin was able to cook dinner never ceased to amaze Ilyana. She couldn't cook something in probably even a microwave if she tried. "That sounds kind of perfect, love," she commented with a quick nod, before their lips met in a soft kiss. That was definitely something that she had missed with Austin. Though she had kissed other guys, they weren't the same. Pulling back after a moment, Ilyana had a dangerous grin on her face. "You're going to let me decide? I like that sound of that."

[/blockquote][/blockquote]

[austin garett abarno]

“I for sure am. I can’t speak for everyone else, but you’ve got me fooled,” he smiled. Yeah, he knew that Ilyana was a total badass, but she was pretty much his best friend. Both of their badassery sort of evened each other out, leveling the playing field. They were pretty solid with each other. There was no need to lie or anything. Austin knew that the girl could handle his jokes, his outbursts, everything. There were never any problems.

“I quite like your face. It’s one of my favorites,” he said teasingly. Of course, there really was no competition. Ilyana definitely had the best face in London. And Australia. Beside his own obviously. Austin chuckled, “Can I like, replace her apple juice, or whatever she drinks now, with beer or something and see how she reacts? I think that would be a true test. Will she turn it down or finish it without a word?” He raised an eyebrow in question. It seemed like a pretty funny idea to him.

“Thank you for reminding me of my perfection, Sweets,” he wasn’t that much of a cocky asshole, he was joking around with it. Of course he had his flaws and whatnot. Everyone did. He just liked to teas people with it. “Yep. Whatever your heart desires. I’m yours.” He smiled once more and kissed her lips. His eyes flickered over to the television screen to watch the final touchdown of the game. His team won. Austin practically shot off of the couch and cheered, pumping his fist in the air and leaving his towel behind on the couch. Whoops. After his little moment, he turned back around to Ilyana, raised an eyebrow and pressed his lips together to hide his smile in a ‘well, whoops, that was an accident, but we should have sex now that I’m naked’ face. He chuckled slightly. “Well, the Swans just won, just in case you were wondering….”

[ilyana lethe stryder]

Ilyana didn't know if she would claim that she had Austin fooled, since she had always felt like he really just knew her. He understood any weird mood swings she had and knew where she was coming from most of the time with everything that she did. Maybe it was the werewolf intuition that they shared, but Ilyana felt like it was more than that. Whatever the bond they had was, it was something deeper than that and she loved it. "Oh, I've definitely got you fooled a whole lot more than the rest of the world," Ilyana joked, laughing a bit as they bantered back and forth. It was moments like that, when they were just goofing around and being cute that Ilyana felt most at home with him. She loved the hardcore moments when they were hitting the surf or something like that, but just cuddling up on the couch and catching up was just as perfect for her.

Of course her face was one of his favorites, as she would have been terribly disappointed if it weren't. "And I rather enjoy your face too. I don't know if it's my faaavorite, but I love it," she replied, sticking her tongue out a bit before tilting her head to the side. The idea that he proposed was sort of mean, but it would be kind of funny. Of course, she would feel a bit bad if she were to accidentally cause Carleigh to relapse, but it would be pretty great. "I'd be down for that. She probably won't be home for awhile, so we have plenty of time to do that today. Just for the laugh, even if she'll probably get pissed and throw things at us," Ilyana said with a smirk. She had come to be quite good at dealing with an angry Carleigh in the last few months since she had been there.

Even though she knew it instinctively, hearing Austin tell her that he was hers brought a grin to her face as he kissed her once more. Having Austin just made everything different, better. Even though he probably didn't want to hang around forever, she kind of hoped that he would stay as long as she had to be there. When his attention turned to the game, Ilyana's eyes flicked to the screen to see that his team had won their game. She didn't follow the Swans nearly as much as Austin, but she was definitely glad to see that they had one and let out a quick whoop of victory herself. Though, Austin had a much more excited reaction. Looking up at his now naked body with a smirk, Ilyana couldn't help but check him out. "Mmm, actually, I had something else on my mind, to be honest," she replied, her voice becoming more sultry, though she didn't even notice the change.

“Not only do you have me fooled, you have me wrapped around your finger,” Austin spoke smoothly in husky voice as he took the girl hand and wrapped his fingers around it. It was true. Austin was willing to fly to the moon and back for this girl without even thinking twice. He practically already did, hauling his Aussie arse to London just to see her again and tell her how different things were back home without her. This boy would go out and catch the stars for this girl, anything that she pleased.
“Pfft, don’t lie to yourself. You know there’s nothing better than this out there,” he said, posing his head and hands like a Greek statue. “I mean, I’m fit to be a model of some sort.” The corner of his mouth curled into a playful smirk, poking her tongue back into her mouth. "Just imagine me on tv shirtless holding a tube of toothpaste. Would you not automatically want to buy the toothpaste?"What she said about the prank was totally true. Shit would be flying. “I’d be hilarious, and plus I’ve dodged bullets before. The only thing is that Felicity doesn’t seem to be a fan of me staying here with you and all. Which I totally don’t understand because I cook and stuff. What does she think I’m going to do?”

Austin jumped off the couch and danced around when the Swans scored the last touchdown of the game. That’s it, they won. Off to the playoffs for them. The boy had no doubts that they would win the finals this year, no doubts in his mind. After his moment of excitement passed, he turned back around to face Ilyana and saw his towel still on the couch. Hm. That wasn’t supposed to happen. But when she spoke, her voice made his muscles tense and relax. A low growl escaped his lips before he spoke, “Is what you had in mind, for now or later?” he asked with a smirk.

[ilyana lethe stryder]

Ilyana would be lying if she claimed that she didn't know how much she had Austin wrapped around her finger. There were times that she did, perhaps, abuse that fact, but she didn't think that she needed to feel bad about it. After all, she would do anything that Austin needed her to without questioning it for a second. He was the one thing in her life that had remained somewhat stable growing up, so she would do anything to keep him around. She didn't always realize that, but she would. He meant the world to her, when it came down to it. "Mmm, you're lucky I'm not the type to take advantage of that, Aussie," she teased, her nose crinkling up as she smiled over at the boy.

Even if she had wanted to contest what he was saying, Ilyana knew that she would just be lying. Austin was pretty much flawless and she would absolutely buy toothpaste if he was in the commercial for it. "Alright, there Mister Ego Trip, calm it down," she joked, laughing a bit at his antics. There was no denying that Austin was one of the most attractive people she had ever met and a career in modeling wouldn't be out of the question at all. Though, she'd much rather keep the boy all for herself, rather than sharing him with the rest of the world. A slight pout crossed her face when he mentioned the fact that Felicity was less than pleased by his presence there. Ilyana didn't understand it either, but she had a feeling that it probably had to do with Fel's shit fiancee or something. "Dunno, Aussie. She's probably afraid you'll defile me or something," she teased, rolling her eyes a bit.

One of the side-effects of being a werewolf was the carnal drive that she seemed to have pretty often, though usually only when Austin was around. It was just one of those things that had always been a factor and though Ilyana blamed it on being a werewolf, sometimes she wondered if it was just Austin himself. "Who says we can't have both?" she asked, looking over at him with an innocent shrug. Her thoughts were anything but innocent, obviously, but she somehow still managed to maintain a slightly innocent stance. Her eyes, however, reflected the extreme desire that she felt for the boy in front of her.

“Even if you did, I don’t think I would mind,” Austin said with a soft smile. It was true. He didn’t really care when Ilyana told him to do something. Even if it would be ridiculous, he would do it without a second thought. He was like a slave to the girl. He wanted to make her dreams come true. Anything, everything that she wanted.

Austin laughed when she called him Mister Ego Trip. It fit. “But tell me you wouldn’t buy the toothpaste and I’d call you a liar,” he said, chuckling. Even he would buy the toothpaste if he was standing there posing with it. But that wasn’t really possible seeing as he was only one person. “Defile you, really,” he raised his eyebrows with amusement, “I think you leave more marks on me than I do on you, but that’s something I’m sure she wouldn’t want to hear.”

“Oh, good answer. Apparently you can read my mind as well as you blow it,” a smirk crawled across his lips, “My mind, that is. Anything else you blow is at your own risk,” he chuckled. Oh the dirty comments. That was something that Ilyana dealt with better than any other girl he knew. At times she was just like one of his bros, but tonight she was his girlfriend.

Austin looked up into her eyes. The lust and desire that poured from them made his mind drool. She pulled him in like a magnet every time and he couldn’t resist the attraction any longer. Taking a step forward, the boy’s lips crashed to hers and his arms wrapped around her, pulling her in as close to him as possible. He whipped her down onto the couch and ripped at her clothing and I think we should censor the scene here because if I keep writing this will turn into porn. …xD [fade]

[ilyana lethe stryder]

Austin's utter dedication to her was something that she was still trying to get used to, even if she had been exposed to it for years. The fact that someone wanted to be there for her like that was just strange to her, considering how things had been with her parents. Ilyana was used to taking care of herself, not having someone there to look after her like Austin did. However, she didn't mind it. Knowing that he was there made things easier, made her feel safer. "Well, if you insist, I may just have to start taking full advantage of my power over you," she responded, shrugging her shoulders rather innocently. She wouldn't abuse it, for the most part, but teasing Austin was fun.

Though she rolled her eyes at him, there was no denying that she would be much more inclined to by something if Austin was selling it. "Ohh, Aussie. Of course I would. Though, I'm sure you'd do just the same if it was my smile selling toothpaste," she chuckled, nodding her head a bit. A sly smirk arose on her face at his last comment, since it was entirely a true statement. Despite what Felicity seemed to believe about her, she wasn't exactly little miss innocent, especially when it came to Austin. Mmm, probably, but you can't possibly deny that you love it," Ilyana commented with a rather bemused expression. She loved the emotional connection she had with Austin, but the physical aspect of their relationship was pretty damn amazing too.

As respectful as Austin was most of the time, Ilyana absolutely loved it when things got like this. The dirty comments and playful banter were fun for her and she loved seeing that side of Austin. "Oh, babe, I don't think so. Anything else I blow is at your risk," she retorted with a sly wink before moving in forward to meet his lips. Within seconds they were tangled together and crashing down to the couch, exactly where Ilyana wanted to be. There were a lot of things that she had missed about Austin in the time they had been apart, but this was definitely one of the top. Austin was just irresistible and she wouldn't have it any other way.
