It's not that he's been waiting for this all night, he loves spending time with Dan even without getting to hold his hand or kiss him, but Marcus has to admit there's a deep tremor of anticipation that shivers through him when they kiss again. Dan's mouth is soft and warm and Marcus explores curiously with the tip of his tongue at first, not hesitant, but slow. Enjoying the experience.

His heart is thundering. His fingertips are tingling. He sucks gently at Dan's lower lip and another shiver ripples down his spine.

This could easily get out of hand, but Marcus takes every moment as a slow exploration, learning things about Dan and the way he moves. The way he tastes. Even the way he breathes.
