Snow would do anything for Hope; do anything to take away the pain, the tears. Even go as far as do something that would jeopardize the entire foundation he worked so hard to create.

There were no second guesses, second thoughts; Snow would've done it again in a heartbeat.

He pressed his lips onto Hope's trembling ones.

Hope tasted heavily of salt - found in the tears that had streamed down his porcelain skin - but also a natural taste that could only be described as his own. Snow found it addictive, and spotaneously pressed his lips harder onto the smaller boy's ones.

Said boy did not pull away, did not push Snow off him, but slowly found himself melt into the kiss, regardless of the part of him that was screaming for him to stop. He found himself wrapping his thin arms around Snow's waist - for it was one of the only places he could - as he felt Snow's hook across the small of his back.

There was no tongue involved with the kiss - the blond feared he'd scare the boy away if he did, and he would never forgive himself if that ever happened - it was just soft, feathery, carressing, equal warmth corsing through them.

Time slowly passes, as that warmth has ignited, and engulfed them with a fiercer fire. The kiss is rougher, touches are more urgent, needy. Their breaths come out ragged, and uneven.

Hope pulled away first, a dark blush present on his cheeks, and heavy pants escaping his lips. Snow smiled at the sight, as he brushed a silver strand of hair away from his lips, and tucked it behind his ear.

"I'm sorry if you didn't want that...I-I mean..." Snow's desperate rambling was cut short by firm, but soft lips capturing his into another kiss. He happily complied, setting Hope into his lap for better access to the moist cavern. The latter moaned at the sudden contact, bringing his arms around Snow's neck.

Once the kiss was broken, Snow ruffled Hope's hair, as Hope nuzzled his face into Snow's chest, taking in the scent - seawater, and cologne.

"It wasn't that, it's just..." He looked up into his eyes, those ice-blue eyes that were so mesmerizing; the eyes that withheld such exquisite beauty. "That was my first kiss." Hope couldn't help, but feel flushed after the confession. He suddenly felt so young, so inexperienced compared to Snow.

"Really? I'm quite surprised, Hope." This caused the silver haired boy to pay closer attention to the elder's words. "A babe-magnet like you, I figured you've kissed dozens of people!"

Hope chuckled, sea-green eyes shining with innocence, and a hint of admiration. "No, you're my first. And I'm glad you are."

A/N - Dangit! Why does that seem horribly OOC? *slams head against keyboard repeatedly*

Anyway, I've always wanted to do something like this, and seeing how fast my love of Snow/Hope (Sope x3) is blossoming, I decided for them to be my first! (It's also my first softcore fic of them)

I have SO many one-shot ideas for this couple, so I thought I'd just bunch them together.

I hope you enjoy, and review; I'll only work on the other ones if I get some.
