This sort of connection was a bit overwhelming now that they were touching and grappling each other, the kind of situation where he felt the need to immerse himself completely or risk losing the opportunity. How many of those had he missed out on because of his time under HYDRA's control? Now with his hands on Steve and the bond clawing ever deeper with their time and opportunity to explore and let loose, it seemed to overtake any other priority so easily.

He was hard in his fatigues without even realizing how desperate he was until that moment, but his hands were still clutching and pulling until he jerked Steve's shirt off, only to have his own follow suit before he was hungrily at the blond's mouth again. He made soft huffing noises at the hands on him, pressing into them and grinding harder into Steve's hips as the friction was both a blessing and torture to his nerve endings. "This is normal... yes? We can do this and we won't be assaulted?"
