This. This is a good bar.
She does not mind taking counterfeit currency and she sells everything.
Bella is going to exploit the fuck out of that but first she is eating really, really good pad thai and finally talking to a person who is a) interesting b) not someone she has already talked to a lot in the last... several years. Lovely friendly bar who makes a lovely delicious pad thai! Bella will have to try opening that door at that moment again in the past.

After enough snuggly kisses, Edie breaks away. "Um--I know we said we were going to do--things--but what things exactly were going to happen was not specifically defined and I did not specifically decide whether or not things possibly involving that lovely bed over there were a thing that I wanted to happen and I am definitely not opposed on a physical level but I need like five minutes to calm down to make this a deliberate choice and not just getting carried away."

"...Oh, I was sort of hoping to be carried away, but if you need to not be carried away sure, five minutes."

"I should have done this earlier. We can go back to kissing and getting carried away after." Inhale. Exhale. "Um--five minutes was an idiomatic usage, not an actual time limit or anything--okay," she says. "I pretty much knew already, I think, I just. Yeah." Kiss! Kissing is easier than trying to find words. Language is so limited.

Kissing: So much easier than language. There's a pun in here about tongues, but Edie is too preoccupied to find it.

Kissing certainly has gotten easier over the past while. Kisses kisses kisses. Carried-away wanderings of hands.

Wandering! This is the edge of a shirt. There's skin under there. This should be discovered empirically!
onceandforall
Bella has skin! All over her entire body. ...It's better than the alternative, anyway.
whatamithinking
There could! This would be a positive development.
Oh, wait. Edie does have another piece of probably-reliable theoretical knowledge about kissing, and this is: you can put your mouth other places besides the other person's mouth. Like the jaw! Or the neck!

This appears to be a successful experiment. She should apply more trials, to be sure the results fall within an acceptable margin of error.

Bella is a little too moaning to participate in science as anything other than the dependent variable. The happiest dependent variable.
onceandforall
So much fun!
If Edie will stop delightfully scrambling Bella's brain long enough to allow it, Bella will science her right back.

Also, the science is going well enough that Bella just plain picks Edie up and brings her over to the bed. Bella has been metaphorically carried away and Edie literally.

Okay, well...it isn't possible to kiss yourself, but this is actually territory Edie has nonzero practical experience with.
