James bit his lower lip coyly, looking at Ichabod's handsome face, at his pouty, delicious-looking lips. Oh, he would certainly not say no to something like that, although soliciting kisses in a park was certainly not his thing. This place was so far out of his pick up range as to be laughable - he generally went for frat boys, rich boys, privileged boys looking for a bit of fun that knew the score; discretion, discretion, discretion. Men in the same position as him, who were looking for a long career in high-profile positions that couldn't afford anything tarnishing or reputation-skewing in their closets. Such things always fell out, eventually.
At that moment, he wasn't thinking about his future, though. He definitely wasn't thinking about how horrified his mother would be that he might be jeopardising his career (as President of the United States, if she got her way) by fooling around with some complete stranger in a park - a stranger that could be a reporter, a future colleague, a saboteur. No, oddly he was just thinking of how good looking Ichabod was, how calm and relaxed he'd been feeling in his presence, how those lips would feel pressed against his. It was dangerous, daring and all the more thrilling because of that.
"I think you should," he said thickly, his heart seeming to pound harder still in his chest. "In the interests of science."
