Ignite me (A collection of Short Stories)
She licks it clean, eyes on mine, and I groan again.
I tug her close, her head on my shoulder, arm around her possessively. We don't mind tangling on the floor, pulses slowing, the light throwing shadows over our skin. I stroke her hair, her back, drop lazy kisses on her temple, her shoulder. She draws idle patterns on my chest, following the contours, lingering on my old ski scar.
We don't speak for ages. Just breathing. Just soak in this hidden world where nothing else intrudes—not Jane upstairs, not the mess we've made, not tomorrow.
