“Alec?” I asked, whispering for no good reason.
“Hmm?” He sounded tired and happy.
“Can we do this again?”
He laughed. “You have to give me a little while to rest, first!”
I rolled my eyes in the semi-darkness, but grinned. “No… I mean — it doesn’t have to end tonight, does it?” I trailed a finger over his collarbone. Will you teach me more?” I wanted him to show me everything, to share everything with him.
He was quiet for a minute, thoughtful. “ Well…” He said, “we have a few more days to ourselves.” I could sense his smile. “After that… who knows.”
I kissed him one last time, and closed my eyes.
For now, it was enough.
