Goodbye

[geeky_agent]

Chris hadn't slept much the night before. She had just lain awake, the fear and guilt keeping her from rest.

She had slept for a few hours in the afternoon. Only to wake up and instantly remember everything that had happened. And everything still to come.

She was lying in bed again. Chris had tried going down to the bar but the idea of trying to hold a conversation and act like everything was ok, was tiring to her. So she came back to her room and got ready for bed.

But sleep was eluding her again so she sat in bed, book in hand, and tried to concentrate on the words.

His smile almost makes Chris cry but instead she focuses on the way his lips feel on her skin.

She turns her head and kisses him on the mouth. The next kiss is deeper and hungrier. She wants to remember this and forget everything else.

He tries to push all his thoughts about what's going to happen out of his mind and concentrate on kissing her back.

But he can't do it completely, and there's a desperation to his kiss, a desire to make this night last as long as possible, because what'l happen tomorrow and in the days afterward doesn't bear thinking about.

His kiss seems a little fiercer and maybe a little more desperate so she wraps her arms around him.

He holds her tightly, forcing himself to relax has she slips her arms around him. They have tonight to be together, and that will have to be enough. No anticipating the morning just yet; it'll come soon enough.

He slides his hands down over her curves until they meet the sash of her robe, and he tugs to loosen the knot there.

Morning can wait.
