He heard her chuckle, felt her contemplative and serene state and wondered what she was thinking. Then, he picked up on her embarrassment and he wondered even more what she was thinking. It may have been similar to what he was thinking... which was this.
When learning how to ski, Dan was told that if you got stranded in the snow the best way to stay warm was to strip down and huddle together, using body heat to save each others lives. Now, he wanted to pretend that he didn't know why this popped into his mind at this particular moment but, well, he would only be kidding himself. He was in a warm igloo, the love of his life in his arms, and the overwhelming desire to kiss her creeping up on him like wildfire.
Then she cleared her throat and he snapped out of it, tilting his head to look at her as she asked if he had plans to be anywhere anytime soon... he knew that face, and that emotion. This girl was up to something. "No, not really. Oh! Wait, I have plans to kiss this gorgeous girl until she can't breathe but, other than that," he smirked devilishly at her. He set his mug aside and reached over to gently pry hers from her fingers, moving it to the ground beside them. He placed his hand beside it, flattening it there so he was leaning over her slightly, even though they were both sitting up. "I'm just not sure if she's interested in those plans.."

Irina let him take the mug out of her hand, her breath catching in her throat as his hand flattened so he was leaning slightly on top of her. She locked eyes, blue with blue, and realized that even though he knew what she was feeling and at this point thinking, he wasn't bolting, or sweating in a cold panic. She remembered what she had had to remind herself several times during their alone time. Go at his pace, and everything will fall magically into place. She had before then, and especially after, careful to never push him to a point where he would feel uncomfortable or scared. Never breaking her gaze from his, she moved the fur coat so that it was behind her, the furs towards the edge of the igloo like a bundled pillow. She moved her legs from out in front of her so that one rested on each side of his waist. "You always take my breath away," she said quietly. She trailed her fingers up his arms before finally closing the gap between them and kissing him, softly at first but slowly letting her passion take over. She gripped at his shirt and let herself slowly rest on the coat, bringing him with her. She broke the kiss for a moment, feeling breathless and more alive than ever. "I love you, so much Daniel Hoh," she said, letting her fingers run through his hair. Her heart was beating fast but she felt ready for whatever came next.

Dan let her move the fur coat behind her instead, make it more comfortable for her to lean on as she moved her legs aroudn him. He smiled at her words, almost making a joke at first but realizing it wasn't the time. He breathed in deeply, not realizing that his hands were starting to shake and his heart was picking up pace. She was kissing him soon after that, softly at first. He moved his other hand to her side, clasping her sweater there but slightly tugging at it in order to get to the skin underneath. She rested back on the coat and he continued to move over her, until she broke the kiss and spoke. His eyes softened and he brought his hand up from the ground to touch the side of her face. "I love you, Irina," he returned softly before leaning back just slightly, lowering that hand from her face and caressing down her body until it found the bottom of her shirt. "May I?" he asked, gently pulling upward, asking if he could just get the darn sweater out of his way.

Irina gave him a shy smile as he asked permission to pull her sweater over her head. She wanted to tell him he didn't need her permission and that he could do whatever he wanted, but that was the passion building up inside her talking. He was being such a gentleman; sweet and kind. "Yes," she breathed, helping him raise her sweater up over her head as she tossed it aside. She realized then that she had only put the sweater on over her bra; for just a millisecond she felt a little shy, but that feeling went away quickly. This wasn't exactly uncharted territory for them, at least not yet. But it felt that it was quickly going into unmarked waters.
She reached up and captured his lips with hers, her hands wandering down before sliding up under his shirt. She felt a muscle tremor and broke away. She noticed his hands were shaking, however slightly, but she noticed. "Hey, hey, hey," she asked, removing her hands and placing one on each side of his face. "Look at me, it's just you and me. Right here, and right now," she told him, kissing him gently on the forehead. She wanted this, right there and now, but she didn't want to overload him. Merlin knew she was feeling a surge of emotions right then, though all happy.

Dan was just happy to be in contact with her warm skin again that he didn't even notice at first that she broke away. He looked to her, brows furrowing with worry. Then she spoke, placing her hands on either side of his face. Her emotions surged into him, causing him to smile in spite of his fears. It was just him and her, just Irina and Dan. Two people wrapped so much in love that it would have made Dan sick to see from the outside. But he wasn't a bystander here. He was a part of this. And, for the first time in his life, he wanted to be. He nodded, looking right into her eyes. "You and me. Right now," he agreed before carefully removing is own sweater and leaning forward, hoping his body warmed hers enough that this didn't result in hypothermia. That would be a mood killer. But, no. Dan had never felt so warm in his entire life. What came next was a series of gasps and sighs, as well as paused moments of encouragement. Reverent whispers and sweet nothings were whispered while all the while they became closer and warmer. The world broke away and this small igloo was all that was left. Everything outside of it was gone, obsolete and unimportant for the time being. All that mattered was the sounds, the skin, the hands and most of all love. All that mattered was her. Irina Rose Krum

Irina lay curled up against Dan, wondering if she had ever felt so blissfully happy before. It had hurt for a moment; she was glad she had been warned, but what came next was better and more magical than she could have ever expected. She had cried out at the end, and was thankful that Daniel could read her emotions and realize that it wasn’t a bad cry. She was glad that it had just ended up happening instead of painstakingly planning it out; in her mind it couldn’t have been more perfect. It was just the two of them, completely removed from the outside world in their little igloo, and Irina didn't want to leave anytime soon.
She adjusted the fur coat a little before scooting up to lay her chin on Dan’s shoulder. “How are you doing?” she whispered to him. She gave him a small smile, reaching up and letting her fingers comb through his damp curls. She reached over and pressed her lips against his temple, closing her eyes for a brief moment before snuggling closer.

Dan was comfortable, even though his hands were still shaking a little. The emotions of the last while, between the two of them, were enough to make his head explode. He wouldn't lie to her and say that he was doing fine, of course not. He was happy, blissfully and incredibly so, but he wasn't sure if he could handle staying here for much longer. Granted, her feelings of peace of happiness were helpful exponentially. He was glad that the worst was over though, the pain and confusing parts. In fact, that part was over rather quickly which only left room for happiness. Still, especially at the end, Dan's heart was beating so fast and so loud from both of their emotions that it was hard to breathe. He was glad that they were now taking it easy, just holding each other and slowing down so he could catch his breath and slow his heartbeat.
He looked over at her as she shifted to lay her chin on his shoulder, asking how he was doing. He closed his eyes for a moment as she kissed his temple, not answering at first. "I'm okay," he answered, truthfully. He was 'okay'. He was better than okay, at least in most ways. He tightened his hold on her, bringing her closer. "Though, my heart does hurt a little," he admitted, frowning slightly and pressing a hand over his chest. Then, he moved that hand to catch her chin and guide it toward his face, "But you're lovely, and I love you. I don't regret anything."

Irina gave him a sympathetic smile as she rested one of her hands over his heart. “Well, I guess I can’t really blame it,” she said with a small giggle. It had almost been emotionally overwhelming for her, and she was guessing for him too; feeling both of that at the same time was enough to cause an explosion. He wasn’t bolting though, which from what had happened nearly three months ago was a huge amount of progress. “I’m glad you don’t regret anything, I don’t either for the record. But somehow I think you already knew that.”
She reached down to where his free hand was resting and took it in hers. He was still shaking a little but Irina had expected this, she was almost prepared for this, as much as she supposed anyone could be. There was no manual on how to be intimate with an empath, so they’d have to figure out the path as it came to them. There was a part of her, a small burning flame deep in her belly that wanted to just roll on top of him and do it again, but she could tell he wasn’t quite there yet. That was alright though; she squeezed his hand between her fingers and closed her eyes, letting the peacefully calm feelings wash over the two of them. She had no idea how much time had passed but at the moment she didn’t really care.

Dan was grateful that Ri was so understanding. Otherwise she would probably feel all inadequate and cry or something, like other girls would have done. Not all, obviously, but he was sure some would find a way to be offended at the things he was saying. But no, she was there, giggling and agreeing and understanding. He nodded as she said she didn't regret anything anything either. Of course he knew that already, well, he hoped that.
She took his hand and he let out a breath of relief, relishing in the comfort of that touch. They were still for a little while again, wrapped up together, staying warm. But, he knew he couldn't stay there forever. Especially not like this, where they may or may not be found. After a while, but not long enough, he sighed, resigned to their fate. "Hey, Ri. I love you," he reminded her, "but I think I need to be alone for a while."

Irina was very glad that she hadn’t tried for a second time around; it was a lot to process for her and double for him. “I love you too and I understand, seeing as I am the perfect woman,” she said, adding in the last part as a joke. She leaned over and kissed him gently before dressing herself and stretching. Her stomach rumbled as she tied her hair back in a ponytail; she supposed she shouldn’t be surprised she worked up an appetite. “I’ll give you custody of this here tree,” she told him. She paused, then leaned in to kiss him again. “If you miss food I’ll leave a napkin of toast for you between the Gryffindor and Hufflepuff hourglasses,” she promised before crawling out of the igloo to let Dan have some alone time. She got up out of the igloo and stretched; everything looked the same but Irina felt different. A good different, more worldly and adult almost. The worry of what being intimate with someone for the first time would be like had passed, and it hadn’t been scary at all except for a brief second there in the beginning. Not being able to help the smile that crossed onto her face, she cast a glance back at the igloo where she’d become a real woman and trotted out from underneath the branches, eagerly anticipating a rather large breakfast she was about to devour.
