It always starts with the tentative reach of fingers, two notches below chilly; one hand smoothing over my side as I’m enveloped by his core warmth.
Our heartbeats sync and the magnetic draw of our bodies seal us from shoulders to the curves of my body to finally the creep of his cold feet wrapped around mine.
This is our ritual.
In the sanctuary of our bed, we are singular. We are one.
I fight the thought of flight, to embrace him into my warmth and hope that it can be replicated in our dreams of tonight, tomorrow and beyond.
oh wow I love these 100 word stories. off to read some more of your stuff now!
Thank you! I really appreciate it. Please give feedback and criticism as you see fit.
i don’t usually give criticism this early in the relationship 😛
more seriously, though, my feedback is: i decided to follow you. take that as you will!
