CHASING HIS DEAD LUNA
ARIA
Adrian left for the office before Eli even woke up, and he kissed me at the door like he didn't want to stop, his hand at the back of my neck, his mouth slow and warm, and when he finally pulled back he just looked at me for a second like he was memorizing something.
"Twenty-nine days," he said against my mouth.
"Go to work," I said, and he laughed, low, and left, and I stood there in the hallway for a second longer than I needed to, feeling the whole day stretch out in front of me with that kiss still sitting on my lips.
