[Hmm, 6/10 for clumsiness... No, no; there's an earnestness to that first uncertain contact that both makes Constantin smile against his lips and calms the frenetic thumping of his heart. Because this thing is new and different, this pushes them well past nebulous and at the same time, it's Felix. Felix who wakes before dawn for ridiculous reasons and who barely bothered to get the dust of the road off himself before sitting down in a fine arm chair to eat. And to kiss him, good god, is this the distinct feeling of dust in his hair as Constantin curls his fingers into the strands? Is it?
Well, it is what it is— simple and warm, without pretense or posturing. Constantin has always known exactly where he stands when it comes to Felix, and so it only makes sense that it's this person he's grown so close to in such a relatively short time. He straightens up some, to really lean in and kiss him back properly, like perhaps he is seconds away from dissolving through the chair from sheer delight—
He'll try not to! But when this surprisingly sweet kiss comes to an end, it is definitely because he finally couldn't stop himself from chuckling. To think he could care for someone this much and have his affections returned! Remarkable! Enough that he more or less giggles like a teenager for a second, hold on, hold on...]
Hmm— I will get better at that.
[At not laughing!! He promises, punctuated with a very bold second smooch, much quicker than the first. The deal is sealed.]
