"You forget."
"Yes. I want to remember this time. I want to find you."
"You know where to find me?"
"I... don't know... I want..."
He drew her body to his... both were innocent of clothes in this realm. There is no need for them where we go when we leave our physical shells behind.
"I want you."
And he kissed her.
He kissed her here as he had always wanted to kiss her every waking moment. Her body melted against his, her legs losing strength. That thin, blue thread of light that sprung up into her chest whenever she thought about him in the waking world bloomed suddenly into bright flame. She felt somewhat faint, and inhaled deeply... his scent...
How can one smell in a dream...?
Is this real?
Dear Gods.... is this real??
She could feel. She realized this with sudden, absolute clarity. She could feel him.
She felt him lay her down in the soft grass.
She could feel his pale hands caress her shoulder... then her clavicle... her virgin's breasts...
And she felt him enter her.
Dulcet agony. Pure... righteous pain. It wasn't unpleasant... she welcomed it. Welcomed it again. And again. Oh, and again...
Pain melted seamlessly into bliss. She cried out his name, his true name, again. And again.
The exquisite climax made her feel as if she must die of it. As if her furiously beating heart had exploded from ecstasy.
Saure woke with a start. She was out of breath, and her heart was hammering as if she'd just sprinted all the way from Nora. Dawn blushed the horizon, but the sun had not yet breached the high hills to the East.
