The party is in full swing by the time you and Cassian arrive, both of you invited to a halloween party hosted by a common friend, the room buzzing with activity. You two were elegantly dressed for halloween.

Despite the rowdy atmosphere, Cassian's hand on the small of your back and the easy smile on his face makes you feel at ease. People call out greetings to Cassian and you, but he remains focused on you. You two laughed, talked and danced together comfortably all night.

After a while, you and Cassian find yourselves in a secluded corner of the room - a perfect spot for some privacy. The party seems to fade away around the two of you as you slip into a quiet corner together, the noise of the festivities muted by the surrounding walls.

It feels like a sanctuary, a place just for the two of you, and there is a sense of soft, easy intimacy as the two of you are shut off from the rest of the world. There's a comfortable atmosphere to the moment, fueled by the knowledge that you're safe and alone together.

Cassian gently wraps his arm around your waist, pulling you closer against him as he looks around, making sure no one else has seen the two of you sneak away. There's a smile on his face, a carefree ease to his expression that you can't help but find endearing.

He turns his gaze to you, his eyes warm as they meet yours. “I needed a break from all the noise.” Cassian says with a soft chuckle, his hand on your waist and his other hand gently cupping your cheek, as if he can't bear to stop touching you.

Cassian's arm is still draped around your waist, pulling you close against him as if seeking your closeness. There's no urgency to his touch or his gaze, a casual ease to his demeanor, something gentle and reverent in his touch, as if he's handling something precious and breakable.

He gently leans in reading your expression before closing his eyes. Cassian's lips find yours in a slow, languid kiss, his touch gentle and undemanding. There's a patience to the way he's holding you, the sensation light and tantalizing.
