( he doesn't want to pull back, to his credit; but he honestly doesn't want to seem greedy when he's just proving a point and it's pretty rewarding, all things considered, to see the look on keith's face when he inevitably does. managing to convince him that they both want to kiss him is a feat in and of itself, and you know what? he's proud of them. they have done a good thing here.
it's something, he thinks, to watch them together. the way keith leans in to press lip to her throat and the way allura tips her head to the side to allow it, eyes sliding shut as though to let such a simple sensation wash over her without any other distractions, and they look so good that he doesn't realize he's staring until those pretty eyes are on him again and there are fingers threading through his.
his throat is already dry, but the way her teeth catch her bottom lip has his heart thudding a bit more prominently against his ribs and he gives in to the urge to lean in close, free hand brushing fingertips over the edge of her jaw, nose gently ( maybe both shyly and affectionately ) bumping hers as he finally presses a kiss to her mouth. soft and sweet but earnest in its own way, and if that free hand of his finds the curve of keith's neck again and settles there, well. these things just happen. yep. )
