The move caught him more than just a little off guard, and Jim let out a sound of surprise as Bones lifted up his weight, though he helped and hopped onto the counter as soon as he figured out what Bones was trying to do. Grinning and chuckling softly, he wrapped his legs loosely around Bones, feet hooked together behind him as he moved his hands up and cupped the doctor's face.

He tipped his head down and pressed their lips together in a slow, soft kiss, sighing quietly as his hands slid down to Bones's chest, then back up his neck. It was all a little silly, really, but Jim liked it far too much to point that out right now. The food could wait a little longer, anyway.

"Well, we've always been close," he offered with the lift of a shoulder, sliding his hands farther up and tracing along the shell of Bones's ears with his fingertips. "But yeah... can't say I expected this, either."
