When she parted her lips slightly and her hands gripped the back of his head tighter - pulling him in, she was lost to the sensation and then for a fleeting moment she backed off ever so slightly to see if he reinitiated. She would if he didn't though. "Happy New Year", Vala whispered, the husky noise coming somewhere from the back of her throat.
