As soon as Barcus deepens the kiss, Bel matches him with enthusiasm, and moves his own hands to make sure Barcus is not going to fall over while standing on a stool, (or, if he did, it would be onto Bel rather than the floor, which would at least give Bel a chance to right the both of them before his own stool tipped over -- either or both of them falling off a barstool is not how Bel wants to end the evening.)

But, yes, this is good, and making Bel wonder why the hells he hadn't brought up the subject earlier, when he was first starting to realize he wanted this. After the kiss is also good, but slightly awkward the way they are balanced, and Bel is just about to suggest... something before he feels the pinch at his throat, which startles a bark of laughter from him. "No longer could hold it back?" he asks.
