Daenerys knew the North very well by now, as much as she knew it wasn't hers.
She'd spent practically her whole life in Winterfell, under Lord Eddard's -- protection? Care? Watchful eye? Possibly some combination -- and truly, she was grateful of it. Surely her life could have taken other, less civil turns: exile, perhaps, or being killed like the rest of her family. She wasn't a Stark, she had always known she didn't quite belong, but she was looked after by the Starks, this for reasons she was only just beginning to understand. (It fascinated her that not killing children was considered a matter of politics and not of basic decency, but then, she was only a young girl, she wasn't meant to understand these things.)
It wasn't uncommon for the once-princess to seek out privacy and quiet when her day's work was done. She'd been a striking girl and she'd grown into an even more striking woman, and even despite the whispered worries about her lineage, she had always received a great deal of attention; she was as good and polite as she could be when approached, but this tendency to run off and hide, though not entirely ladylike, stemmed from a desire to avoid such attention. She often retreated to the godswood, though not from any particular religious inclination so much as that she knew it was unlikely she'd be disturbed there, at least by anyone who wasn't welcome to disturb her.
Today's earlier raven from King's Landing, though innocuous enough, had sent Daenerys into a mood: carefully disguised, hardly noticeable to most, but nonetheless one she felt she needed to be alone, or mostly alone, to sort through. If anyone were to look for her, or just to stumble across her, they'd find her in the godswood, bundled in a cloak and deep in thought.

As the sensations intensified down there, so did their kisses. Jon's tongue swept inside of her mouth, tasting her and teasing her. "Gods... Gods, you feel so good, Daenerys."
(no subject)
And she did know that the reason, or one of the reasons, she'd chose to lay with Jon was that with him, she wouldn't want to just take it. She'd want to participate.
Her tongue meets his, her mouth twists up in a smile, her hands trace up and down his back. "You, too," she murmurs (this dirty talk business is going to take a bit longer, she thinks). And then, with a glint in her eye, she moves one of his hands to her breast.

"I know I sound like such a man, but I really do love these," he said, not really able to keep from laughing softly.
And with all that, they still moved against each other, the pleasure washing over him like waves.

The feeling of his hand at her breast combined with that of him inside her was, she thought, one of the most splendid things she'd ever experienced, and she moaned at it unashamedly, leaning to press her mouth against the skin of his shoulder.

And even though it wasn't likely they'd have very much of that time, it was a very pleasant thought indeed. He groaned again while warmth continued to grow and swell in his belly as he stroked inside of her.

They'd have to cram all of that exploration and learning into a very short time, but it was going to be the sweetest time. How couldn't it be, if it meant they'd be getting to feel like this so often?

It was then he could start to feel things changing, quickening inside of him. There was a pressure starting to build in his belly that was familiar enough, but magnified so many times by the feel of Daenerys surrounding and holding him tightly. Feeling instinct urging him, Jon shifted his weight a bit forward, and he was deeper within her and he let out as long and shaking a groan as when he'd first entered her.

When he drove into her more and that sound fell from his lips, she matched it easily, dragging her nails across his back lightly and holding him in place. Yes, deeper, deeper was a feeling she very much enjoyed.

Hearing Daenerys respond to his movements, Jon's instinct immediately drove him to continue in the same way, keeping himself as far within her as he could, stroking nearly his entire length with every rock of their bodies. "I think... I think I might be close, Daenerys..."
(no subject)
Every thrust of his hips sent tremors through Daenerys' body, warmth and craving and response. She hadn't quite reached the point he'd brought her to earlier, but it wasn't far off, either. "Take me," she breathed. "I want to feel you." Even more than she had already.

His eyes were wide, locked on Daenerys and lost in her beauty and the feelings he read in her expression, even if he didn't fully understand them all. It was all too big, too much to contain. "Oh... Oh, Gods, Daenerys--" The dam burst, both inside of Jon's head and in his body as he climaxed.

She moaned upon hearing him say her name that way, grabbing at him and pressing fingers against his back hard, pulling him to her. "Jon, oh, Jon," she whispered in return, breath hot against his skin as somehow she found the strength in her to keep grinding her hips against him to reach her second climax. She thought it would be even more beautiful, and soon she could know it for a certainty.

Jon could feel her around him, tightening as she had before, and it was spurring him to continue even though his head spun. Searching for something solid to anchor himself to, his mouth found Daenerys', his breath mixing with hers.

Her hand slid to rest on the slight curve of his arse, holding and stilling his movements almost as if to assure him that it was all right, she was good, she was perfect. She could hardly move at all, but she managed that.

And whether he was thanking the Gods of Daenerys herself didn't matter. Jon agreed with both.
(no subject)
She smiled rather dazedly at that, opting to kiss him in return, lips then cheek then lips again, instead of saying anything just yet.
(no subject)
"I know neither of us can speak from experience," he said slowly, "but that did seem to be very, very good."
(no subject)
Maybe for the better, given their circumstances.
"It was beautiful," she murmured, full of reverence.

"I'd like to stay here, like this, for a while longer, if that's all right." Mostly, he's saying it because he's hoping his weight isn't too much, but it's true for other reasons, too. "Forever, if that's a choice, but for a while."
(no subject)
After a moment of thought, then: "I'd like forever. Forever with you sounds..." Gods, she was getting horribly sentimental, but it was unavoidable. "It sounds like the best thing possible."
(no subject)
Jon nodded in agreement. There were a few hours of darkness left, but morning would come all too soon and he and Daenerys needed to be out of the hayloft well before then. After that, who knew how long they had before the Starks left Winterfell and the two of them faced being separated forever? But they had that one moment, and they could dream about forever while they did.
